Chapter 1445: Fellow brothers in distress
“Can this flower be eaten?” Suddenly, a voice interrupted Song Ming’s feeling. It turned out to be Wu Hai scuttling over from the side.
“The eaves of the crow’s Gate are good.” Song Ming politely greeted.
“You’re welcome. Can I eat it?” Wu Hai asked again.
“Some can, some can ‘t.” Song Ming said.
Although Wu Hai was quite free when eating, he was still quite normal when communicating with others. After all, this was Yuan Zhou’s dessert party and he still gave Yuan Zhou a lot of face.
“Yes.” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and nodded his head seriously. Then, he conveniently plucked a flower and stuffed it into his mouth.
This time, without waiting for Song Ming to open his mouth, Wu Hai started to spit it out. He had no choice but to admit that it was a real flower.
The real orchid had a bitter taste. Luckily, Wu Hai ate everything but didn’t suffer.
“This is a real flower ...” Song Ming said.
“I know.” Wu Hai nodded his head and then picked off another one to taste.
However, Wu Hai was really unlucky. It was still a real flower and then it was sacrificed in his mouth again.
Song Ming smiled helplessly. This time, Wu Hai didn’t ask him. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the stone under the tree.
“This stone seems to be a snack too.” Wu Hai said.
“It’s possible. ” Song Ming pondered for a while and nodded.
“I’ll try. ” Wu Hai grabbed a palm-sized stone and then stuffed it into his mouth.
“Oh, it really is. It’s a stone mantou, and it’s still warm.” Wu Hai said while eating.
“Is that so?” Song Ming also picked up a stone.
This stone looked exactly like a stone. It looked simple and unadorned, and it felt very hard to the touch, no different from a real stone.
“Sniff.” Song Ming wasn’t Wu Hai who could bite it in one bite. He sniffed it slightly and found that there was a faint fragrance of flour. Then, he took a bite.
The outer layer of the mantou was hard to the touch, but when it came into contact with the mouth, it instantly softened. After eating it in one bite, only the soft feeling was left. When one bit into the inner layer of the mantou, that was what was called soft.
The mantou was as soft as cotton, and the inner layer was snow-white with tiny pores. There was no filling, but the fragrance of wheat and the slight temperature made people feel happy.
It was just like when he was a child, when he came home from school, there were no snacks at home, but the big steamed bun was still warm in the pot. The fragrance of wheat filled his mouth, and his stomach became full as he chewed.
Eating this steamed bun made Song Ming feel this kind of happiness.
“It’s indeed delicious. There are not only the beautiful Begonia crushes and Yulan rice cakes but also such simple and unadorned stone mantou. Little Yuan’s ingenuity and cooking skills are really amazing. ” Song Ming finished the steamed bun and said in admiration.
“Yeah, we old guys can’t help but be convinced.” Ji Yi nodded in agreement while holding a stone mantou.
That’s right. The moment Ji Yi heard the word mantou, he rushed over and snatched the last mantou from Wu Hai’s mouth.
Thanks to the good fortune of Wu Hai holding one in his mouth and one in each hand, Ji Yi would never be able to eat it.
“No, no, no. I’m not old.” Song Ming said with a smile.
“...” Ji Yi felt that he and the chef were at odds with each other.
“Yeah, you think everyone is as old as you, steamed bun Ji?” Zhou Shijie also walked over and interrupted.
Then, Ji Yi turned around and left. Since there were still so many snacks to eat, he had to eat them seriously.
Seeing that the potential threat, Ji Yi, had left, Zhou Shijie asked Song Ming with a smile,””How is it?”
“Everything I’ve seen and heard is worth the trip.” Song Ming said.
“Haha, that’s for sure,” Zhou Shijie revealed a proud look.
Those who didn’t know better would think that Song Ming was praising Zhou Shijie. No, even praising Zhou Shijie himself wouldn’t make him so happy.
“This time, little Yuan has put in a lot of effort. Not only are there many kinds of dishes, but also little Yuan’s craftsmanship has improved a lot.” Zhou Shijie sighed with emotion.
“He’s indeed very good. His cooking skills and pastry making skills are all great. ” Song Ming nodded.
Zhou Shijie liked to talk to people who had the same values as him. Therefore, Zhou Shijie and Song Ming started to chat while eating in the forest of desserts.
It was indeed harmonious inside Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, but the people outside were scratching their ears and cheeks anxiously.
Those who were anxious were not the reporters. After all, the reporters had long been accustomed to Yuan Zhou’s low profile. Therefore, many of them had already gone back to write their articles.
When the surrounding customers knew that Yuan Zhou was having a snack party, they were also very anxious. However, since they had already known about it a few days ago, they felt pretty good about it. They would only look into the restaurant from time to time.
So the one who was anxious was Gabriel.
“Is it true?” Looking at the tightly shut door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, Gabriel had walked around it three times.
“Is it true that you have supper? Or a barbeque or a bar?” Gabriel mumbled as he walked.
That’s right. After eating in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for a month, Gabriel finally knew that there were also midnight snacks in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.
Moreover, he had just found out about it. As soon as he found out about it, he immediately came to the store to ask if it was true.
However, he had arrived too late and the snack gathering had already started. The door of the store was already closed, so naturally, no one could answer his question.
“The guide said there is, and it looks very delicious.” Gabriel took out his phone and looked at the screen.
What was displayed on the screen of the phone was a complete guide written by a foreigner about Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. The title of the content was how to eat at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for a day.
It was because he had seen the guide that Gabriel had come.
“It’s such a heartbreaking thing. It’s such a pity that I missed so many days. What’s scary is that I can’t make up for this regret today.” Gabriel looked at the tightly shut door, and his depressed golden hair lost its luster.
However, Gabriel’s bad luck wasn’t a big deal. There was an even more unlucky person who didn’t even make it to the snack party. This person was none other than Chu Xiao, who had been busy for a long time and finally found time to come to the snack party.
That’s right. The dessert party was already in the latter half, but Chu Xiao hadn’t arrived yet.
The reason was very simple. Chu Xiao had already booked the plane ticket to Chengdu, China, but as soon as he arrived at the airport, he was told that the flight would be delayed due to the weather.
Chu Xiao immediately made a prompt decision to buy another plane. However, this was the only direct flight. Therefore, Chu Xiao bought a transfer flight.
The connecting flight took off on time, but it was late again during the transfer. Chu Xiao transferred to another plane again. However, the weather at the place where he transferred to was bad. There was a thunderstorm and most of the planes stopped flying.
Chu Xiao, who had stayed at the connecting flight airport for two days, looked at the dark sky outside and said,”Maybe I should consider returning to China to develop my career. The situation in China is good now, and there are many people eating French food.”
