How would I know?
"This matter."
"Let's go outside first and talk about it later."
Glancing at the few orderly staring at him with cold eyes, Shen Youde could only awkwardly force a smile: "Brothers, sorry, we'll be leaving now."
As he spoke, Shen Youde quickly grabbed Li Guihua's arm and dragged her out of the lobby of Huifu Hotel.
"Honey, you have to find out the truth."
"Why was Assistant Sun so polite to Lin Sen just now?"
"What exactly is going on?"
Li Guihua, who had been kicked out of the Huifu Hotel, was now twitching violently at the corners of her mouth, her eyes were bloodshot with anger, and she was gritting her teeth.
She and Shen Youde begged and pleaded but couldn't get into Li Lao's birthday banquet, while Lin Sen could easily get in.
This infuriated Li Guihua.
"You go home first, I'll go ask around."
"There must be some secrets we don't know about."
After giving Li Guihua a few instructions with a furrowed brow, Shen Youde happened to see the head waiter walking out of the Huifu Hotel.
"Xiao Zhou, come over here for a moment."
"Boss Shen."
"You're here for dinner?"
Upon hearing Shen Youde's call, Foreman Zhou walked over to Shen Youde with a broad smile. Of course, he recognized Shen Youde, the famous richest man in Linhai County.
"Xiao Zhou, I want to ask you something."
Shen Youde shoved a box of red peony tea leaves into Supervisor Zhou's hand: "Lin Sen, you know him, right?"
"Lin Sen?"
Foreman Zhou was momentarily stunned.
"That's Shen Sen, the son I had with Lao Shen before."
Li Guihua quickly replied, "You've seen it before."
"oh oh."
"Mr. Shen, you mean him?"
Supervisor Zhou suddenly realized: "Boss Shen, why are you asking about him? Wasn't he already kicked out of your house?"
"I just heard someone say that he's become the new chef at your Huifu Hotel?" Shen Youde asked suspiciously, "Is that true?"
"No, right?"
"I don't know, I haven't heard of any new chefs coming to our restaurant's kitchen."
Supervisor Zhou was stunned upon hearing this. He scratched his head and said, "Boss Shen, why don't you wait a moment while I go to the kitchen to ask? You know, I'm in charge of the front of house and I'm not very familiar with things in the kitchen."
"Can."
Shen Youde nodded immediately: "Then I'll trouble you."
"It's nothing, please wait a moment."
After muttering something under his breath, Supervisor Zhou hurriedly entered the Huifu Hotel.
"Boss Shen."
A short while later, Supervisor Zhou came out of the kitchen with a few crayfish: "I just inquired and found out that Lin Sen did cook in the kitchen, but he is not considered a chef at our Huifu Hotel."
"This is the spicy crayfish he made."
Supervisor Zhou lowered his voice: "Assistant Sun just called him into the banquet hall. I heard that Old Master Li ate this spicy crayfish and thought it tasted good. He really appreciates it."
"What?"
"Does Old Li admire him?"
"That's impossible!"
Upon hearing this, Li Guihua was utterly astonished: "Besides, how could he know how to cook? He didn't know how to cook at all when he was at my house!"
"I really don't know when Lin Sen learned to cook."
"But he did make the spicy crayfish, and Mr. Li was indeed very satisfied with it."
After answering Li Guihua's question, Supervisor Zhou looked at Shen Youde and said, "Boss Shen, I have something to do, so I'll go take care of it now."
"OK."
Shen Youde watched Zhou, the foreman, leave.
Then peel off a crayfish and put it in your mouth.
"hiss."
Instantly, the aroma of numbing spiciness filled my mouth.
“Honey, Lin Sen can cook? There’s something fishy going on. Someone else must have cooked it and he’s pretending it was his to fool Old Li.”
Li Guihua shouted angrily, "Husband, you have to expose him in front of Old Master Li!"
"Try it yourself."
With a cold expression, Shen Youde handed a peeled crayfish meat to Li Guihua.
"hiss."
"this……"
The moment the shrimp meat entered her mouth, Li Guihua was speechless.
As a housewife, she knew very well that she couldn't cook such delicious food.
However, she still didn't believe that Lin Sen had made the spicy crayfish.
After all, Lin Sen had always been waited on hand and foot in the Shen family.
"husband?"
Li Guihua stared blankly at Shen Youde.
“He’s been away from our family for a year, so it’s normal for him to have learned to cook.”
"When I was a child, my family was poor and we often didn't have enough to eat, so we often went up the mountain and down to the sea to find wild game to eat."
Shen Youde looked at Huifu Hotel with complicated thoughts, pondering how to use Lin Sen as a connection to curry favor with Old Master Li and Director Li.
Director Li is the Director of the Commerce Bureau of Linhai County.
Shen Youde happened to have his eye on a poorly managed state-owned food factory in the county and wanted to acquire it.
This process inevitably involves the approval of the Bureau of Commerce.
Moreover, Mr. Li's own son holds a high position in the province.
If he could also establish a connection with Old Li's son, it would be much easier for him to advance his career to the provincial level.
"Let's go home first."
Thinking of this, Shen Youde reached out and pulled Li Guihua.
At this moment, he was starting to regret kicking Lin Sen out of the Shen family.
...
Meanwhile, as Shen Youde, with mixed feelings, pulled Li Guihua away from the Huifu Hotel...
Lin Sen met Old Li through the introduction of Assistant Sun and Manager Zhao.
"Mr. Li, this is our new chef at Huifu Hotel."
"Lin Sen".
Manager Zhao pointed at Lin Sen with a big smile.
