Just when the atmosphere seemed a little tense, Lin Qianyi finally spoke.

"Master Xia, you dissipate your anger, I don't think Xiaochuan is talking about it, nor is he looking down on cooking. ”

Among the people present, Lin Qianyi, who knows Wang Xiaochuan best, naturally knows that her boyfriend will never be untargeted, and he must have his own reasons for saying this.

However, on Chef Xia's side, they must not offend, after all, no matter what time it is, a chef with superb cooking skills is the treasure of the town in the restaurant.

So, she proposed: "Master Xia, if that's not the case, let's just let Xiao Chuan give it a try, and see if he can really use ordinary ingredients to make dishes that are not inferior to spiritual vegetables, what do you think?"

Wang Xiaochuan nodded first and said, "Yes, there is no problem on my side." ”

Chef Xia pondered for a while, but then said: "No, just let him cook, after all, he is the owner of the store, what if you help him? In my opinion, it's just like that, don't you want him to try it? Just just try it with me." He and I each cook a dish, and as long as he can win me, I admit that his solution works. ”

As soon as the conversation changed, Chef Xia looked at Wang Xiaochuan and said, "But if he loses, I want him to apologize to us chefs in public, whether he is the boss or not, this apology must be said!"

"Yes. Wang Xiaochuan naturally would not refuse this, but he also added a condition: "Master Xia, I will naturally apologize if I lose, but if I win, can I invite you to go to the capital once and invite a few of your brothers and sisters back for us? ”

"Okay!" Chef Xia patted his chest and said, "I agreed to this condition!" In addition, since we are going to compete, we will use the same ingredients to compete, what do you think of making fish?"

"Can you compete to make fish? Yes, I don't have a problem. Wang Xiaochuan didn't think much about it, so he nodded and agreed.

It's just that at this time, the chefs on the side all shook their heads, and at the same time secretly said in their hearts that this time Chef Xia was really angry, and he didn't want to show Wang Xiaochuan a little affection at all.

Because these people know that Chef Xia's best skill is to make fish. In the past, when he was in charge of the state banquet in the capital, Chef Xia was a chef who was in charge of cooking fish, and Wang Xiaochuan wanted to compete with him to make fish, which was simply a humiliation for himself.

Because it was about to be lunch time, the chefs in the store, including Chef Xia, would be busy dealing with the noon guests for a while, and Wang Xiaochuan also needed time to make some preparations, so the two agreed that the time for the competition was set at three o'clock in the afternoon, which was also the most leisurely time in the store.

After agreeing on the time, Chef Xia left the office with his head held high, as if he had already won the game.

"Xiao Chuan, if you lose this time, we will really offend Master Xia. ”

Looking at the back of Chef Xia and the others leaving, Lin Qianyi was a little nervous.

"Don't worry, Sister Qianyi, when did you see me say a big thing?" Wang Xiaochuan smiled, and then said: "By the way, Sister Qianyi, I will use the things in the store to prepare for a while, because it is the first time, so it may take some time, so can you help me go to the medicinal herb market once and buy some medicinal materials for me?"

In this regard, Lin Qianyi naturally agreed.

Next, after Wang Xiaochuan wrote a list of medicinal materials that needed to be purchased, Lin Qianyi immediately set off and went to buy medicine for Wang Xiaochuan in person.

As for Wang Xiaochuan, he went to the kitchen on the first floor first, and under the strange eyes of Chef Xia and others, he turned out an unused steamer in the kitchen.

"Boss Wang, what are you doing here?"

A curious chef couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, and asked in a hurry.

"Go back and make cooking utensils. Wang Xiaochuan replied.

Cooking utensils?

Chef Xia and the others on the side were all puzzled, they were going to have a competition in the afternoon, so how could Wang Xiaochuan still have time to make cooking utensils? Besides, if you want to talk about cooking utensils, isn't there everything in the kitchen in Tianmei Building? Why did he go to get any cooking utensils?

couldn't figure it out, so Chef Xia snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, it's just grandstanding." ”

However, at this time, Wang Xiaochuan had already left the kitchen, so Chef Xia's ridicule did not reach his ears.

After that, Wang Xiaochuan returned to Lin Qianyi's office with a steamer, and not long after, someone heard the sound of banging and banging in the office.

Because of Lin Qianyi's advice, no one bothered Wang Xiaochuan, but everyone was very curious about the movement he made in the office, and they didn't know what he was doing?

It didn't take long for the afternoon competition to spread in the store.

However, unlike Lin Qianyi, who is full of confidence in Wang Xiaochuan, most people in the store are not optimistic that Wang Xiaochuan can win. There was a bored waiter who wanted to open a handicap and bet on who would win the afternoon competition between Wang Xiaochuan and Chef Xia, but in the end, because everyone pressed Chef Xia to win, he didn't dare to open the market.

More than an hour later, Lin Qianyi finally came back with a large bag of medicinal herbs, and at this time, Wang Xiaochuan had already made his cooking utensils.

Seeing that there was no special steamer in Wang Xiaochuan's hand, Lin Qianyi had a question in her heart.

"Xiaochuan, this is the cooking utensils you will use in a moment, and I don't think it's any different from other steamers?"

"Sister Qianyi, I have another mystery here, you'll know in a moment. ”

Seeing Wang Xiaochuan's mysterious face, Lin Qianyi had no choice but to suppress the curiosity in her heart and wait for the start of the afternoon game.

Time flashed back, and soon it was about half past two in the afternoon.

Chef Xia, who had already had time to spare, saw that Wang Xiaochuan's side had already made preparations, so he didn't wait for the time to reach three o'clock, so he proposed to start the competition early.

Wang Xiaochuan, who was already ready, naturally agreed.

The two then came to the kitchen, in front of many cooks and waiters, ready to start this cooking competition.

Before the start of the game, the onlookers on the side exchanged their heads and whispered, looking a little excited.

As for the reason for this competition, by this time, everyone basically already knows.

It's just that the vast majority of people, like Chef Xia, are deeply skeptical of Wang Xiaochuan's statement.

As a benefit for the staff of Tianmeilou, the store sometimes gives all the staff free of charge to taste the dishes made with Lingcai, so everyone knows very well the deliciousness of Lingcai, which is definitely not something that can be made up for by cooking skills alone.

Therefore, for Wang Xiaochuan to use ordinary ingredients to make a delicacy similar to spiritual vegetables, although he is one of the owners of the store, most people are skeptical.

And in this atmosphere of suspicion, the competition between Chef Xia and Wang Xiaochuan finally began!
