Chapter 180: Borrowing the Kitchen for Use [Sixth Update]
"Monsieur Maupassant, he's just talking casually......" Arya hastened to explain to Maupassant, fearing a conflict.
"Sorry, beautiful lady, this is a very serious matter for me, he must give me an explanation. Maupassant said solemnly.
Mu Chen looked at Sister Alice, who looked a little anxious, and then looked at the eyes of everyone around him who had gradually been attracted to him, got up and nodded to Maupassant, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, Mr. Maupassant, if I offended you by inappropriate words just now, I sincerely apologize to you." ”
"I refuse to accept your apology until you have given me a reasonable explanation. Maupassant was adamant.
Mu Chen frowned slightly, this guy is too stubborn and rigid, right?
"In short, you must apologize to me in the most famous gastronomic newspaper in France, or I have the right to put you on my blacklist!" Maupassant said confidently to Mu Chen, as he seemed to care about his title and glory.
So exaggerated?
Mu Chen was completely helpless now, he didn't expect his unintentional remarks to cause this dispute.
"Okay. ”
Mu Chen thought about it, but decided to settle the matter.
"Mu Chen. ”
However, Alice couldn't look past it, and felt that Maupassant was a little aggressive, so she immediately frowned: "Mr. Maupassant, it's not necessary, right?"
"I stand by my decision. Maupassant said solemnly.
"Monsieur Maupassant, my friend has already apologized to you, and if you get so entangled, then we will have to ask you for an explanation. Alya said with some anger.
"Well, when the time comes, I will have to propose to my father that he refuse to continue to supply Chef Pierre Gagnaire's restaurant with wines from Château d'Obiang, and even end all other collaborations. ”
"Château d'Obiang?" Maupassant was shocked, looked at Sister Alice, and was instantly shocked, "You are the rumored triplets of the Capet family, the three sisters Ellie?"
"I'm Arya!"
"I'm Alice!"
The two sisters said in unison.
Maupassant gasped secretly, and his face turned red and uncertain.
I didn't expect that I would meet the two daughters of Grand Duke Capet in Huaxia, and I also had a conflict with their friends.
If this matter is not handled well, it is likely to seriously affect the reputation of the teacher and himself, and even be frantically suppressed by the Capet family.
However, as a chef, excellent cooking is the foundation of his foothold in the international restaurant industry, and if his cooking skills are questioned and the dishes are flawed, it will take a serious toll on his reputation.
He must not allow such a thing to happen!
He turned his head to look at Mu Chen, who was very handsome, but he was dressed ordinarily, and there were no extravagant ornaments on his body, as if he was not at the same level as the noble-born, dignified and elegant Alice sisters.
Most importantly, he is Chinese, not French.
Then he approached Sister Alice, and deliberately belittled his cooking skills, obviously wanting to pretend to be forced in front of Sister Alice, showing that his own taste was extraordinary, so as to gain the favor of Sister Alice, and then enter the Capet family through them and become one of the nobles.
Maupassant suddenly had a decision.
This Chinese kid's mind can be described as extremely sinister!
Sister Alice must have been deceived by him to become friends with him.
Then let me expose him for what he really is!
Gritting his teeth, Maupassant bowed to Sister Alice and said in a deep voice: "Two noble young ladies, please allow me to express my admiration and respect to the two and to the Grand Duke of Capet...... I have no intention of offending you!"
"But, in order to defend my personal reputation, I must ask this gentleman for a reasonable explanation. ”
After a pause, he stared at Mu Chen with a scrutinizing gaze, and said with a smile: "Unless this gentleman honestly tells everyone that everything he just said is nonsense, and he deliberately belittles me in front of the two of you, so as to highlight his extraordinary, so as to win the favor of the two of you." ”
As soon as he said this, there was an uproar all around, and they all looked at Mu Chen with contempt and disdain.
They even pointed fingers at him and said something extremely ugly.
"As a Chinese, but he admires foreign flattery and befriended foreign aristocratic ladies, he has no bottom line at all, and he has simply lost the face of our Chinese people. A young man snorted.
"Not bad. A manly man, when he is self-reliant, he can make a career of his own. But you want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix to nothing, which is simply a shame for men. In particular, it is even more unforgivable that you deliberately slander Chef Maupassant's cooking skills and reputation, and trample on others to praise yourself!"
"Chef Maupassant is an internationally renowned French chef, not only superb cooking, excellent dishes, but also meticulous, excellence, never allow his own dishes to appear any flaws, in Jinling City has a good reputation, but today you slander his cooking skills, what is your intention?"
……
Several people accused and reprimanded Mu Chen with righteous words, and in their words, Mu Chen suddenly became a shameless villain who would do whatever it took to achieve his goals, causing a surge of public sentiment and a verbal and written criticism of him.
"Mu ......"
Alice and Alya didn't expect things to turn out like this, and immediately looked at Mu Chen in a panic.
Mu Chen calmly waved his hand at them, signaling that he didn't have to worry, and said calmly to Maupassant: "Mr. Maupassant, are you sure you want me to point out the deficiencies in your dish?"
Maupassant's expression changed slightly: "This curry and smoked shrimp has been carefully remade by me, and it has won the gold medal in the French "Extraordinary chef" competition, and I myself have been awarded the title of Michelin star chef. Are you sure there's something missing in my menu?"
"No amount of talk will help, and you will not be convinced. Mu Chen looked at him calmly and said lightly, "Then let me borrow your kitchen and convince you then, how about it?"
"You want to make a dish and challenge me?" Maupassant's expression changed again, and he looked at him incredulously.
The onlookers were also unbelievable, and their expressions changed.
"This guy is too self-conscious, right, to challenge Chef Maupassant, who has two Michelin stars? Who gave him the courage and self-confidence?"
"He's humiliating himself!"
Everyone said.
Alya hurriedly pulled the corner of Mu Chen's clothes: "Mu, don't be impulsive. ”
Alice also anxiously persuaded: "Mu, I know your cooking skills are very good, but it is Chinese food after all." Now if you want to compare French food, it will definitely not be as good as Maupassant's, you must not mess around. ”
"Don't worry, I never do things that I'm not sure of!" Mu Chen smiled at the two of them, and turned his head to look at Maupassant, "Mr. Maupassant, would you like to lend me your kitchen?"
"Hmph! My kitchen used to be only qualified for me to use, but now that my reputation is at stake, I'm going to make an exception for you to use it. ”
Maupassant felt that his authority had been seriously challenged, and said with a calm face: "But if you make a mess of my kitchen, not only apologize to me, but also compensate me for the loss of my reputation!"
"Yes. Mu Chen nodded.
Under the strange gaze of everyone, Mu Chen strode towards the kitchen of the restaurant.
