Why didn't you go later...

Because I dare not.

I didn’t dare to face Nanzhi’s blaming eyes, nor did I dare to recall the past with Nanpingshan...Senior Brother.

I dare not even think about how ridiculous my complaints and hostility over the years were!

Song Lin's heart felt like it was in a frying pan, tossing and turning.

Including just now, if he hadn't seen Nanzhi standing outside the kitchen door and heard the other chefs' somewhat harsh discussions, he probably wouldn't have rushed out, but disappeared quietly, and at most turned around and sent a letter of resignation.

Song Lin had already thought of the worst-case scenario, but...

Nanzhi said she didn’t blame him at all?

And he was different from the Wang family? It had to be said that Song Lin's heavy heart was relieved at once, and he felt relaxed.

He tried hard to suppress his tears:

"Really? Do you really think I'm not the same as them?"

Nanzhi looked at Song Lin's cautious old face and found it funny and a little sad.

She deliberately used a joking tone: "Of course it's true! Why, Master Song doesn't believe my judgment?"

"Where! How could it be!"

Song Lin retorted eagerly.

Think about the first time Nanzhi came to this restaurant and met Song Lin...his attitude back then was completely different from now!

Nanzhi found it very interesting and comforted Song Lin: "Okay, Master Song, you can stay here and help me. Although I will focus on running this restaurant in the future, I can't stay here 24 hours a day. Most of the other time, I still have to rely on you, Master Song."

Song Lin was so excited that even the wrinkles on his old face were smoothed out! "Don't worry! I will definitely help you run the restaurant! I won't let you lose a penny!"

Nanzhi nodded happily.

Song Lin suddenly thought of something very important:

"By the way, this restaurant needs to be renamed, right?"

It's impossible to continue calling it Yongnian Building.

Nanzhi nodded:

"That's for sure."

Song Lin hesitated and observed:

"So you're planning to name it..."

Nanzhi didn't even think about it:

"Besides Nanfeng Tower, what other name could be more suitable?"

This is called setting things right!

Song Lin was a little dazed.

At that time, he was thinking about the kindness of Nanping Mountain and was determined to go to Nanfeng Tower to work for his senior brother after completing his studies.

Unfortunately, before that time came, something happened to my senior brother.

Now, after many twists and turns, his wish has unexpectedly come true.

Song Lin: "Actually, I have a little plaque there."

Nanzhi: “Oh? Could it be…”

Song Lin: "Yes, it's the plaque on the Nanfeng Tower back then."

Nanzhi was overjoyed!

"How could that be? My grandfather...my grandfather said that the plaque was clearly lost. He thought it was taken away by a junk collector, or stolen by someone..."

Nanzhi saw that his grandfather mentioned the plaque in his diary, and he always felt regretful whenever he thought about it later.

That plaque was left by a world-famous painter, who was one of my grandfather's most loyal customers at Nanpingshan.

The great painter has passed away, but his paintings are worth tens of millions at international auctions. Although the value of his calligraphy works is not that high, each word is at least worth a thousand gold.

Of course, the most important thing is the extraordinary significance of the inscription, which is almost synonymous with my grandfather’s most glorious period!

Nanzhi was both surprised and happy.

Song Lin, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed.

He always felt that the thief was talking about him...

"Ahem, when I saw the Wang family take down the plaque of Nanfeng Tower, I felt a little sad, so I teamed up with my friends to take it back home in the middle of the night. Now it's still lying in my utility room..."

Two years ago, it was almost thrown out by his son as scrap, but fortunately he found it in time and kept it!

But let’s not talk about these things anymore.

Song Lin also sighed:

"I thought the plaque was left as a memorial, but I never expected that it would be returned to its original owner one day."

Nanzhi expressed her gratitude sincerely: "Thanks to you, Master Song!"

Song Lin just felt happy.

Seeing that it was getting late, Nanzhi said goodbye to Song Lin and prepared to go find Nan Yi, Fu Chao and the others.

Go up to the second floor and see a sneaky head behind the wall at the corner.

Nanzhi: "...Master Zhou?"

Zhou Bing rushed out.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to find out."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

He said it halfheartedly.

Nanzhi found it even funnier.

You have such a big head hanging behind the wall, I must be blind to not see it!

"Master Zhou, is there anything wrong?"

Zhou Bing was waiting for this sentence!

Zhou Bing: "Miss San... Boss Nan! Looking at the new Nanfenglou store and its new look, do you plan to recruit some new staff?"

Nanzhi originally wanted to say that she had not considered these things for the time being.

But you can see Zhou Bing's eager eyes.

She thought: "Of course!"

Zhou Bing was overjoyed:

"Great! What do you think of me, Boss Nan?"

Nanzhi hesitated:

"Master Zhou is of course excellent. I have tasted your cooking skills at the old house. However, if the restaurant is just opening, the salary may not be high. Besides, the conditions offered by my grandparents at the old house should be much better than here. Can I ask why you are willing to come?"

“Working in Nanfeng Building is my lifelong dream!”

Zhou Bing blurted out!

Seeing the slight doubt on Nanzhi's face, he explained sincerely:

"Your grandfather Nan Pingshan is the idol I admire most in my life. When he was alive, Nanfenglou was also a holy place that many people dreamed of. Although he is gone, I still want to fulfill my wish when I was young and become a chef in Nanfenglou, the best restaurant in the world!"

Zhou Bing has said so much, how can Nanzhi bear to refuse?

Sorry, grandpa and grandma, I have to snatch someone from you two...

"Since you have made up your mind, there is no reason for me to refuse. I will talk to my grandparents about it."

Zhou Bing nodded excitedly:

"Well! I'll resign from them when I get back!"

Maybe because she was in such a good mood, Nanzhi even heard Zhou Bing humming a song when he left...

Nanzhi found Nan Yi and Fu Chao and others in the lounge.

Although there are other purposes for using the Tasting Banquet as the stage today, Nanzhi has never slacked off on the Tasting Banquet and has been busy preparing for it since yesterday.

Nanzhi herself is fine. Her body has gradually adapted to such high-intensity work and she even feels familiar with it.

But Nan Yi insisted on staying up late and getting up early with her.

He is young, how can he hold on?

At this moment, I was so sleepy that I fell into my uncle's arms and fell asleep like a pig.

And Qingxi was also leaning against Fu Chao, drooling in his sleep.

Even Fu Chao himself had his eyes closed and was snoring softly.

Nanzhi looked at the time and estimated that the three of them had just started sleeping for a short time.

She simply found a seat and sat down, looking through the online public opinion trends on her phone while waiting for them to wake up. (End of this chapter)
