All manner of diverse pastries were brought to the table.
The shapes of these delicacies were enough to whet anyone's appetite, and in no ti, the entire table was heaped with them, finally topped off with a large pot of seafood porridge.
As the waitstaff were ladling seafood porridge into their bowls, Wang Anxiong said with guilt, "Master, breakfast should not be too greasy, so I've personally prepared the nu for lunch later."
In the midst of speaking,
Wang Anxiong pulled out the reissued identity card from his pocket and handed it to Shen Feng with reverence, continuing, "Master, your identity card has been reissued."
Once Shen Feng took the identity card, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Thank you for the trouble, I need to travel to Nanming County tomorrow. Since I've had breakfast with you, I won't stay for lunch. I'll need to go book a plane ticket soon."
Xu Dong promptly said, "Master, let handle the booking of plane tickets, there's no need for you to do it personally."
Wang Anxiong, regretting his sluggish response, asked cautiously, "Master, I happen to have a good friend in Nanming County. May I ask what you will be doing there? Is there anything I can help with?"
Shen Feng saw no need to hide the truth, "I am going to Nanming County to find my parents. However, I don't know exactly where they are in Nanming County."
Upon hearing Shen Feng was going to Nanming County to find his parents,
the eyes of Wang Anxiong and Xu Dong flashed with opportunity—a once-in-a-lifeti chance! This was an excellent opportunity to get closer to Shen Feng, but as they were about to speak, Shen Feng straightforwardly said, "I don't want too many people following this ti."
Just then,
the manager responsible for the twenty-eighth floor walked in, approached Wang Anxiong, and said, "Director Wang, here are the two gold cards you requested."
Wang Anxiong waved his hand, signaling the manager could leave.
He handed over the two gold cards to Xu Dong and Xu Wenxing, "Brother Xu, you and the Master ca to my ZY Club, and I, Wang Anxiong, did not make adequate preparations. Please accept these two gold cards as a token of my sincerity. You absolutely must not refuse!"
Gold cards from ZY Club!
These could only be obtained by the real upper echelons of Wuzhou, sothing Xu Dong had never dared to dream of having before.
When Xu Wenxing saw the gold cards from ZY Club, his eyes lit up with excitent as he hurriedly said, "Old man, this is Director Wang's kind gesture, just take it!"
Xu Dong looked at Shen Feng and, seeing no sign of dissatisfaction from his master, he accepted the two gold cards, "Then I thank Director Wang."
After Xu Dong took the gold cards, Xu Wenxing imdiately snatched one and carefully fiddled with it in his hands.
Looking sincerely at Xu Dong, Wang Anxiong said, "Brother Xu, I have an impertinent request. Please let accompany the Master to Nanming County this ti! In the future, if Brother Xu needs anything, I, Wang Anxiong, will definitely not shirk."
Shen Feng had already ntioned he did not want too many people joining him, implying that soone could still accompany him, so Wang Anxiong wanted to secure this chance to be the companion.
Seeing Wang Anxiong's earnest plea and genuine expression beyond reproach, Xu Dong, a man of emotions himself, was aware that Wang Anxiong had displeased his master earlier. There's truth in the saying that one is beholden to the person whose favor they seek, so he answered, "Director Wang, as long as the Master has no objections, I will follow the Master's wishes."
Wang Anxiong looked anxiously at Shen Feng.
"Wang Anxiong, I was originally planning to have my disciple accompany . Since my disciple has agreed, then you may join on this trip! It just so happens that you know soone in Nanming County, perhaps you could be of so help when the ti cos."
Upon Shen Feng's agreent, Wang Anxiong finally relaxed slightly and repeatedly expressed his thanks, "Master, thank you, truly, thank you so much. I definitely won't let you down this ti."
The attendant, who hadn't left, was almost popping his eyeballs out in shock upon seeing Wang Anxiong's behavior.
His boss had shalessly insisted on accompanying them, and then went on to repeatedly thank them?
What on Earth had happened? Was this really their boss?
Fatty Qian spoke up, "Brother Wang, let's have breakfast first! Otherwise, it'll get cold."
Wang Anxiong imdiately responded, "Yes, Master, please have sothing to eat first."
After Shen Feng picked up the spoon and took a mouthful of the seafood porridge that was served in front of him, Xu Dong and Xu Wenxing also started to eat.
Xu Wenxing wolfed down his food rabidly, his mouth full but his words still clear, "This is so delicious, it really can't be compared with the food in regular restaurants."
Xu Dong also nodded in agreent.
Wang Anxiong laughed, "All these breakfast items were personally made by Elder He. Typically, Elder He seldom cooks at ZY Club."
Xu Dong asked with surprise, "The Elder He that Director Wang ntioned, is it He Yongfu?"
Wang Anxiong nodded, "Exactly!"
No wonder the breakfast tasted so wonderful. He Yongfu had cooked for many prominent figures in Capital City, and his culinary skills were among the top in the whole country.
It had cost Wang Anxiong quite so effort to bring He Yongfu over.
Xu Dong then looked towards Shen Feng, and upon seeing his master's slightly furrowed brows, he knew that even Elder He's cooking skills could not satisfy his master.
Wang Anxiong and Fatty Qian also noticed that Shen Feng had only taken one bite of the seafood porridge and hadn't touched his chopsticks or spoon since.
"Master, are you not satisfied with these breakfast items?"
Wang Anxiong tentatively asked; after all, Elder He's cooking skills were certainly beyond reproach.
Wang Anxiong, himself, had a hobby of tasting fine foods and was always very picky about food, yet he couldn't find any fault with Elder He's cooking.
Shen Feng shook his head slightly.
The mouthful of seafood porridge that he had just tasted might be considered delicious by people on Earth.
But having grown accustod to the tastes of the Immortal Realm's cuisine, that single bite had felt muddled in flavor and the umami was not pure enough.
In his eyes, it was terrible, and he thought to himself, "It looks like I'll have to take matters into my own hands if I want to eat sothing satisfying."
"No choice then, in order to taste the flavor of the Immortal Realm's food once more, I'll make an exception and cook this one ti!"
Shen Feng genuinely felt helpless, as the Immortal Flavor Liquid required activation by a cultivation technique to be effective.
Besides, if he could later find an Immortal Flavor Stone mine and devise a thod that would allow the Immortal Flavor Liquid to take effect without activation, then the Immortal Flavor Liquid could be developed as an industry.
He was always a very casual person and never felt that cooking himself would diminish his status.
If he felt like doing sothing, he would just do it without overthinking,
Moreover, since the Immortal Flavor Stone was discovered on Earth, he wanted to personally see whether the Immortal Flavor Liquid extracted from the Earth's Immortal Flavor Stone would be different from that of the Immortal Realm?
Shen Feng inquired, "Where is the kitchen?"
Upon hearing this,
Wang Anxiong, Xu Dong, and the others simply froze, wondering why Shen Feng was suddenly asking for the kitchen?
