When they arrived at the private room of Fugui Hall, Yu Chenfeng and the other two had just sat down when the kitchen started serving the dishes.
The first dish served was the five-spice crispy chicken, followed by braised tongue tail, mapo tofu, sesame pork elbow, double-flavored tendon, pot-roasted duck, and clear soup with willow leaf bird's nest.
Yu Chenfeng saw Xiaohua staring at the food on the table and licking her lips. He quickly smiled and said, "Xiaohua, just pick up your chopsticks and eat whatever you want."
"Brother Chen, I'll eat it then."
Despite saying that, Xiaohua still looked very shy when she picked up the chopsticks. She picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her mouth, but the excitement on her face soon disappeared.
Shu Jiaying immediately asked, "What's wrong, Xiaohua? Is this dish not to your liking?"
Xiaohua shook her head and said honestly, "No, it's delicious, but not as good as it looks. Sister Jiaying, I still prefer the dishes you cook."
Yu Chenfeng had already tried the dishes at Zhiweilou to know how they tasted. If he hadn't been considerate of Shu Jiaying's hard work, he would have preferred the dishes cooked by Shu Jiaying just like Xiaohua. Moreover, compared with other dishes, the dishes he ordered were already considered signature dishes.
Yu Chenfeng put a piece of pork elbow into Shu Jiaying's bowl and teased her, "Look, you've spoiled both of our palates. I think Xiaohua and I won't be able to live without you from now on."
Shu Jiaying smiled speechlessly.
"It's just a meal, there's no need to be so particular. As long as it fills your stomach, that's fine. Xiaohua, eat more."
Casting a meaningful look at Xiaohua, Shu Jiaying thought to herself, if Xiaohua and Guan Yaoer really had a relationship, she wondered if they could still be together. After all, they were mother and daughter, and she couldn't separate them and then take Xiaohua with her.
Thinking about the possibility of separation, Shu Jiaying felt a little lost. In order to hide her emotions, she kept putting food into Xiaohua's bowl.
Soon, Xiaohua's bowl was piled high with food. She quickly said, "That's enough, Sister Jiaying. I can't eat that much."
"Who said you can't eat that much? If your brother Kang was here, maybe the two of you would be fighting over it right now."
You really can't talk about others behind their backs. As soon as Shu Jiaying mentioned Kang Ningxia, the boy's voice reached their ears.
Kang Ningxia walked into the private room and immediately sat down next to Shu Jiaying. He asked excitedly, "Miss Shu, what do you think of the food at Zhiweilou?"
“So-so!”
This sentence was said by Xiaohua.
Kang Ningxia rolled her eyes at Xiaohua.
"What do you know, little kid? There are so many delicious foods here, eat them quickly. If it's not enough, Brother Kang will give you more."
"No need, Brother Kang. We may not be able to finish this amount of food. It will be a waste if we order too much."
Kang Ningxia glanced at the seven dishes on the table and said in disbelief, "No way? It's just a small amount of food, how could you not finish it?"
As he spoke, he also picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. Soon he smiled awkwardly again: "Haha... This dish looks fancy on the surface, but the taste is really quite ordinary. Miss Shu, I know I can't ask you for help, so how about this, can you accept my Zhiweilou chef as your apprentice? As long as you teach him how to make delicious dishes, I am willing to give you 30% of Zhiweilou's profits in the future."
