"Alright, you say he is the real Ye Zhongnan. This national chef certification has indeed not been issued for ten years. Anyway, the event doesn't start for another day, so I'll reserve the spot here for now. But if you want to get real entry qualifications, you must complete this year's level certification assessment."
Xiaoxi and the others knew in their hearts that Kong Xinlin was obviously making things difficult for them.
In fact, Ye Zhongnan also wanted to obtain the qualification for entry through his own abilities. Out of pride, he did not want to always ask Secretary Yan and the others for help.
Xiaoxi saw through her second brother's thoughts: it was just a cooking skills assessment, right? No matter how difficult it was, she had to help her second brother achieve it.
Ye Zhongnan asked Kong Xinlin, "Then may I ask, Director Kong, is Master Wu still the chief appraiser for the National Chef Certificate?"
Kong Xinlin looked at him with some disdain, "It's certainly good that you can get a martial arts master to certify you."
Because this national master chef, Wu Zhengsong, is exceptionally difficult to deal with. The certification assessment is held every autumn, and so much time has passed since then. No matter how powerful your backers are, he will not recognize you.
You're being incredibly naive to think you can handle this smelly, hard rock in just one day.
Since her second brother knew that the most authoritative certifier hadn't changed, Xiaoxi didn't want to waste any more time talking to Kong Xinlin.
Kong Xinlin also wanted to get rid of these unreasonable people as soon as possible. He hated these people who only knew how to use back channels.
Xiaoxi and her group left the registration area, and it was just noon.
Everyone was hungry, so they quickly returned to the courtyard house for lunch.
Feng Yu asked them if things went smoothly today.
Xiaoxi said that her second brother had indeed obtained his new identity, but he was stuck at the registration stage when it came to participating in the culinary competition. Grandpa Ding, being a chatterbox, immediately launched into a long explanation.
Feng Yu was also very angry. He was about to book plane tickets for a large group of people to return to Hong Kong, but this sparked his interest in staying in Beijing for a few more days to participate in the culinary event.
So they decided to stay a few more days.
"Xiaoxi, if there's anything I can help you with, just let me know. I have many friends in both the legitimate and underworld circles in Beijing."
The underworld? When Xiao Xi heard Feng Yu say that, a sudden idea flashed into his mind, and he thought of a solution.
"I just heard that the annual assessment period for master chefs has already passed, so let's take an unconventional approach and force Master Wu Zhengsong to conduct the assessment."
"Okay, Xiaoxi's method is good." Feng Yu felt that Xiaoxi's way of doing things was becoming more and more in line with his own.
He immediately called all his friends in Kyoto.
They quickly found out the exact location of Wu Zhengsong's home. Wu Zhengsong had several residences in Beijing. They even knew where Wu Zhengsong was today.
"Alright. Let's act immediately without delay." Xiaoxi didn't hesitate and called Ye Zhongnan to leave.
"Wait a minute, we're going too."
Feng Yu and Grandpa Ding spoke at the same time, asking why they weren't included in such an exciting gossip-watching event.
Xiaoxi found it amusing. "Uncle Feng and Uncle Ding, I'm really impressed by you guys. Wherever there's excitement, you're always there."
Feng Yu and Grandpa Ding chuckled, "Enough said, Xiao Xi, you understand."
To give her second brother a grand send-off, Xiaoxi decided that everyone would take a flying boat together.
