Chapter 225 Are you worthy enough?
"I'm just talking, who is so tactless to contradict me? I'm going to..."
Du Tianci turned around with gritted teeth and saw that the person who spoke was a young man in his early twenties. He was stunned: "Who... who are you? Do you have the right to speak?"
On the contrary, Du Anrao recognized the other person at a glance. After all, he had seen his photo not long ago, or to be more precise, a still from a drama.
"Fu...Fu Sili?!"
Fu Sili? Xi Jingyue frowned, and it took him a while to remember that this was the handsome... artist he had seen at his cousin's company before?
After Duanrao shouted, he realized that it was not polite to call someone by their name. He looked behind him and was even more surprised.
"Mr. Fu, and cousin, what are you doing..."
Du Bixiao put away her notebook and said calmly, "I just happened to have a case that required Mr. Fu's cooperation, so I stopped by. Do you know each other?"
"More than just knowing each other. If it weren't for Miss Du, I wouldn't know where I'd be right now, worrying about my dad's medical expenses."
Du Bixiao raised her eyebrows slightly, somewhat surprised but not that surprised: "Is there such a thing?"
"Hey, hey, hey, who are you?" Du Tianci saw that Du Anrao had ignored the three of them and started chatting with the two people who came up behind. His face turned pale and he looked like he was ready to fight with them at any time.
"We are talking to her, do you have a say?"
Fu Sili, or should he be called Fu Sili now, glanced at Du Tianci and didn't even need the foreman's help to explain. Just by listening to the few words just now, he had guessed the whole story.
"I dare not say anything else, but I think I am qualified to say a few words about our restaurant and Miss Du. This gentleman said so much, isn't it because he is dissatisfied with Miss Du for not having to queue up to dine at our restaurant and becoming the privileged exception?"
"What kind of privileged exception is this? It's obvious that they bribed some insiders to get in and commit fraud!"
"Yes." Young Master Du glanced at the time and estimated that the person they had an appointment with would be arriving soon, so he decided to make a quick decision.
He had never seen these two young men who came later, and had no idea where they came from, so he didn't dare let Du Tianci continue to play freely.
He took over the conversation and defined the matter, saying, "Zhenxiu Restaurant has been open for more than 30 years, and the rules of the restaurant have remained the same for decades. Everyone in City B knows about them. These rules are the basis of the integrity of Zhenxiu Restaurant, and the foundation of Zhenxiu Restaurant. I think as long as the owner of Zhenxiu Restaurant is still clear-headed, he will not let anyone break these rules easily. Don't you think this is the truth?"
What Mr. Du said was both a reminder and a threat. He had just deliberately directed the topic to Du Anrao, the supervisor and the waitress in order to put this accusation on them.
Regardless of whether Duan Rao's identity as a distinguished guest of the restaurant was true or not, today it seemed that she had secretly colluded with the store staff, relying on her relatives and connections to force the customers queuing below to sneak into the store and enjoy the privileges.
At that time, the restaurant's reputation could be restored by simply firing one or two employees.
Otherwise, if they make a big deal out of this, Zhenxiu Restaurant will face a reputation crisis and dissatisfaction from customers, which will seriously affect the store's business.
However, Mr. Du never thought that the reason why Du Anrao became a distinguished guest of the restaurant was not because of Du Desheng, but because of herself.
What is even more unexpected is that Duanrao's favor to Zhenxiu Restaurant and the Fu family behind it is not just a small favor, but a great favor.
Therefore, facing his implicit hints, Fu Sili ignored them completely.
"The foundation of Zhenxiu Restaurant lies in decades of continuous efforts to hone cooking skills and improve dishes, taking the essence of ancient dishes and making the best of their strengths while avoiding their weaknesses. The foundation of Zhenxiu Restaurant's integrity lies in the strict selection of clean, tidy and harmless raw materials, and its responsibility for the health and tastes of its guests. It has nothing to do with what you just said."
"Miss Du is our Fu family's benefactor. As long as she likes, she can use anything in this store at will. It is a free gift, not to mention reserving a private room for her to dine in our restaurant."
"Benefactor?" After listening for a long time, Du Weilu finally put aside his airs as an elder and joined the export army.
"What a joke! I have met the old man of the Fu family a few times, but I have never heard of any benefactors in the Fu family. Even if there are any, how long has this damn girl been in City B? How could she become the benefactor of the Fu family? She lied without thinking."
After Du Weishu finished speaking, he even looked Fu Sili up and down: "Who are you? And your Fu family, how come I didn't know when the Fu family had a person like you? Do you think you are qualified to represent the Zhenxiu Restaurant? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself!"
"Just because he is the only young master of our Fu family and the future heir of the Treasure House, do you think he is qualified to represent our Treasure House?"
These words were earth-shattering, like a thunderbolt hitting the hearts of the Du family's two sons.
Xi Jingyue was also surprised. He couldn't connect the gray and silent boy he met for the first time with the Fu family, which was said to have a J-party background.
Duanrao, the only one who knew the truth, was very happy for the two elderly people of the Fu family.
[Oh, it looks like a paternity test has been done, this handsome guy is really the grandson of the Fu family who was living away from home.]
Xi Jingyue's eyes narrowed slightly. So that's what happened! Is this what this girl said before about helping the Fu family... a small favor?
Fu Sili was also stunned, then turned his head helplessly to look at the person who hurried over.
"Uncle, I've told you so many times that I have no interest in cooking. You were the one who built this restaurant, so it has nothing to do with me."
"Zhenxiu Restaurant is the life's work of my elder brother and his wife. I am just keeping it for them. Now that you are back, you don't even want to take it over."
"...Are you sure you want me to take over? With my cooking skills, I can order our entire store right after I enter the kitchen."
Fu Ruixiang vaguely recalled someone's recent feat. His expression froze slightly, but he still insisted, "If you don't know how to do it, you can learn it. Who is born knowing these things? Isn't it all learned?"
"...No, uncle, please believe me. The entertainment industry is the starry sea that I need to conquer, not the culinary industry. Please let me go, and let yourself go."
Fu Ruixiang: ==If this were my son, I would definitely reward him with a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots!
"Boss Fu...Boss Fu, you..." Du Wei looked at Fu Ruixiang who showed up just in time, and finally couldn't deceive himself any more. "How...how is this possible? He...he is your nephew, but..."
"But what? Do I have to lie to you? Sili is my eldest brother and his wife's biological son, my nephew."
"But didn't Mr. and Mrs. Fu already... their child..."
"What?" Fu Ruixiang's eyes were as sharp as knives. "My nephew is still alive because it is God's blessing to my Fu family. You guys have something against my Fu family. Why are you so jealous of us?"
