Tang Yu hurriedly pushed the serving cart, placing his plate of Nine-turn Intestines underneath, then ran into the kitchen where the two were and asked, "Is the Nine-turn Intestines ready? The guests in the Osmanthus Room are urging."
"It's ready, take it."
Master He placed the freshly cooked Nine-turn Intestines on the serving cart. "Take it."
Ye Qiu also handed his dish to Tang Yu, looking sowhat impatient. If it weren't for trying to win over Wei Yangcheng, he wouldn't bother making such a troubleso dish.
"Thank you both for your hard work."
Tang Yu chuckled, pushing the serving cart swiftly out of the kitchen. As he neared the private room door, Tang Yu quickly swapped Ye Qiu's Nine-turn Intestines with his own. Holding back a laugh, he entered the room and placed the two plates on the table, saying, "Honored guests, the Nine-turn Intestines are here."
"Why are there two?"
Seeing two different plates of Nine-turn Intestines, Lin Tiancheng asked puzzledly.
"Yeah, was there a mistake? Be careful we eat two plates but only pay for one," Wei Yangcheng joked, clearly in a good mood today.
"No mistake, this one is made by Master He, and this one by Master Ye."
Tang Yu pointed to the two plates of Nine-turn Intestines.
"Master Ye?"
Lin Tiancheng, a regular here, had never heard of a Master Ye.
At this mont, Ye Qiu leisurely walked in from outside the room and smiled. "That's . This Nine-turn Intestines was made by personally. I've been honing my culinary skills at ho for years, and this is my specialty."
Upon his entrance, the Lin family mbers' faces all darkened. This bastard, why is he here to cause trouble again?
"Who let you in? Is this a place you should be?"
"Can't you see we're entertaining important guests today? What are you doing here?"
"Are you crazy? Have so self-awareness. How dare you compare your dish to Master He's?"
They scolded him, and if Wei Yangcheng weren't there, they would have thrown wine in his face to drive him out.
Lin Huanxi finally noticed Ye Qiu. Earlier, she was preoccupied with looking for that guardian deity at the door and hadn't noticed his arrival.
Facing the scolding, Ye Qiu remained calm and said, "Why so angry? How can you know I'm not better than Master He without trying?"
Lin Tiancheng was about to curse when Wei Yangcheng waved his hand. "The kid has a point. Let's try it first."
With his words, the Lin family mbers quickly changed their tune, agreeing that they should try it first, while continuing to curse Ye Qiu in their hearts.
Wei Yangcheng picked up his chopsticks and reached for the plate of Nine-turn Intestines made by Master He. He was obsessed with this dish and could tell its quality just by its appearance after years of eating it.
Master He's dish was bright red, semi-transparent, indicating perfect cooking.
As he put a piece in his mouth, the Lin family mbers watched him intently. Whether Wei Yangcheng would be satisfied depended on this dish!
After chewing twice, Wei Yangcheng slamd the table and spat out angrily, "Is this Master He getting old and losing his taste? Fing hell, does he think salt is free? If he can't cook, he shouldn't. What kind of people did you hire?"
After cursing, he grabbed his tea and rinsed his mouth vigorously. Fing hell, at least half a spoon more salt was added.
Seeing Wei Yangcheng's reaction, Ye Qiu smiled slightly to himself. While cooking in the kitchen, he noticed that old fellow He was indeed skilled. Although he could definitely beat him, he made a little adjustnt just to be safe. The worse He perford, the more it highlighted his own exceptional culinary skills.
The Lin family mbers were terrified, knowing Wei Yangcheng had a peculiar temper. One of his pet peeves was eating poorly made Nine-turn Intestines. In his words, every ti he ate bad Nine-turn Intestines, he felt betrayed, like being cuckolded by the dish! Just like soone who loves sweet rice dumplings biting into a salty one.
"Brother Wei, don't be angry. Maybe the dishes got mixed up. Master He is very skilled," Lin Tiancheng quickly tried to appease him, his old face turning green with fear.
"Yeah, maybe there was a mistake."
"Master He wouldn't make such a mistake."
The Lin family mbers also scrambled to find excuses, each one more anxious than the last. If they failed to please Wei Yangcheng, they would lose everything. With the Wei family's power, they could easily crush the Lin family.
"No mistake, that's definitely Master He's dish."
As everyone tried to calm Wei Yangcheng, Ye Qiu suddenly spoke up. His words made the Lin family want to strangle him.
Before anyone could speak, Ye Qiu pointed to his own plate of Nine-turn Intestines and smiled, "So why not try mine, Mr. Wei? I guarantee you'll be pleasantly surprised. I dare say no one in China can make Nine-turn Intestines better than ."
Hearing this, the Lin family realized they might have to pin their hopes on this useless guy. If his Nine-turn Intestines could satisfy Wei Yangcheng, then the Lin family's task for today would be accomplished! They might even reward this useless guy afterward. After five years, he finally did sothing right for the Lin family!
"Yes, Brother Wei, try my grandson-in-law's dish. He does have so culinary skills."
"Right, he's been cooking at ho for years. His skills must be good."
"I've tasted Ye Qiu's cooking before, and it's quite good."
The Lin family mbers quickly changed their tune, starting to praise Ye Qiu.
[LOL, his Nine-turn Intestines are more than just good?]
[Besides being clean and well-fed, I can't find other words to describe it.]
[The Lin family is truly disgusting.]
[They change their tune as soon as the situation changes.]
[If they can't appease Wei Yangcheng, they might force Lin Huanxi to sleep with him.]
[If I were Lin Huanxi, I would have cut ties with them long ago. These stupid relatives are useless and only cause trouble.]
Tang Yu, watching from the side, silently mocked them. As soon as he finished, Lin Huanxi's gaze locked onto Tang Yu. Because at this mont, Tang Yu was the only server in the room! The other three servers had already left!
But Tang Yu was wearing a mask, so she could only see his deep eyes through it.
"Is it you..."
Lin Huanxi looked at Tang Yu with a dreamy gaze, biting her lip, almost wanting to embrace him. After so many years of loneliness, it was the first ti she felt so irresistibly drawn to a man.
