Chapter 62: Don't Answer the Phone!
Since Li Xianggen's challenge book has been handed over to Liting's kitchen, Zhang Xuezhou is not easy to mediate and let Li Xianggen get back the challenge book sent out, which is even more unacceptable than letting him lose. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Alas, it seems that you still have to wade through the troubled waters this time, and it depends on your respective abilities who wins or loses." Zhang Xuezhou was eating golden fried rice and thinking in his heart.
Li Xianggen's challenge to Liting Kitchen was originally inconspicuous in Xiangyuan, but in the secret operation of the general manager of Dalongyuan, Xiangyuan's media began to report on this matter, after the public knew about this matter, most of the ideas were the showdown between Liting Golden Fried Rice and Dalongyuan **** country, recently Golden Fried Rice was popular all over the country under the influence of Jiang Hanyan's Weibo, and the **** country is a Xiangyuan giant, some people with redundant ideas have already had many kinds of speculation, and some said that the **** country put pressure on Liting through power, To make Liting lose in this competition, some say that Liting is actually from the **** country, such a competition is just a show, and then charge greater benefits, and some are even more outrageous, saying that the chef of golden fried rice and the **** state-owned PY transaction......
In short, the purpose of the general manager of Dalongyuan Hotel has been achieved, and the culinary duel between Li Xianggen and Li Ting's kitchen has completely aroused people's desire to watch.
The location of the competition must be in Liting, the afternoon before the competition, Xue Xia began to decorate the restaurant according to Liu Wangnian's requirements, the stove of the duel, the judges' seats gradually took shape, night fell, just waiting for tomorrow's decisive battle!
As for the general manager of Liting, he doesn't ask about the catering department at all now, he is walking around when he sees Lu Chen now, and offending Lu Chen is not good for him, anyway, Liting was also given up by the crocodile directors, so win or lose at will.
This night, Liu Wangnian chose to go home early, go to bed early and get up early to nourish his spirit in order to better complete tomorrow's competition, this posture made Lu Chen can't help but think of the students of the college entrance examination, and everyone else in their kitchen felt full of tension.
Early in the morning on the day of the competition, Lu Chen and the others came to the kitchen early, and then put the fresh ingredients on the stove side of the restaurant duel, as well as cleaning, arranging the scene, and so on.
It was already around ten o'clock in the morning when everything was ready, but Lu Chen still didn't see Liu Wangnian's figure, and at this time, Xue Xia frowned and quickly found Lu Chen and asked, "Xiao Lu, isn't Master Liu here yet?" ā
"No, we're wondering, it's going to start at twelve o'clock." Lu Chen was also very puzzled, the college entrance examination is all about going to bed early and getting up early to take the exam, and the teacher is a little out of common sense? Do you want to enter the market in the finale?
"You call Master Liu and ask." Xue Xia's voice shattered Lu Chen's illusions.
"Oh, good." Lu Chen came back to his senses and called Liu Wangnian, but no one answered after calling three times in a row, Lu Chen and Xue Xia were faintly restless in their hearts, why didn't they answer the phone when it was so important?
"Soon, those TV stations should come, you and Xiao Chen will pick up people first, and I'll go to the office to find the phone number of Master Liu's lover." After Xue Xia finished speaking, she stepped on her high heels and left in a hurry.
Xue Xia only left on the front foot, Xiao Chen smiled and led a group of people to the restaurant, not from the TV station, but guests who came to watch the game, but due to the limited number of places in the restaurant to watch the game, the people who can come to watch the game today are also people with status, of course Xiao Chen does not dare to slack off.
Xiao Chen brought people to the restaurant, and Lu Chen shouted to Li Ze and said, "Li Ze, arrange for them to be seated according to the seat number held by the guests." ā
"Okay, I'll leave it to me." Li Ze responded.
Xiao Chen handed over these people to Li Ze and turned around and went down to the door of the hotel to greet him, Lu Chen saw that Xiao Chen didn't need him at all, walked out of the restaurant and went to Xue Xia's office, pushed the door and went in, Xue Xia took the phone with a sad face, obviously did not contact Liu Wangnian's lover.
"No one answered." Xue Xia withheld the phone, feeling a little irritable.
"So what now?" Lu Chen asked, he really hadn't experienced such an occasion.
"There is still time, I believe that Master Liu will come in the end!" Xue Xia said firmly.
"Yes." Lu Chen also believed that Liu Wangnian would definitely come.
At the door of the Dalongyuan Hotel, the general manager of Dalongyuan personally sent Li Xianggen to the car, watching the car to Liting gradually move away, the corner of the general manager of Dalongyuan showed a sneer, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened the latest text message, only to see the words "done" written on it, and then pressed the delete button to delete this message.

The TV reporters were in place, the guests watching the game were in place, Li Xianggen was in place, and the gourmets who were invited by the Dalongyuan Hotel and the Liting Hotel were in place, and the time was 11:30 a.m., but Liu Wangnian still did not appear, and the mobile phone was still not answered.
"Sister Xue, everything that should come is here, and several major channels in Xiangyuan have also started live broadcasts, what should we do?" Xiao Chen hurried to the office and asked her, the competition started at twelve o'clock, but before that, he must have introduced the judges and chefs, and he also had to shoot the framing of the ingredients, stoves, etc., it can be said that Liu Wangnian will not appear again, even if he will automatically abstain.
Xue Xia and Lu Chen didn't stop talking on the phone for more than an hour, they kept calling, and asked a lot of people who had a good relationship with Liu Wangnian, but there was no news about Liu Wangnian at all, Xue Xia also knew that it was not early, so she gritted her teeth and said: "Let's go, let's go to the restaurant first to drag the time, the competition time is twelve o'clock, and Master Liu still has half an hour!" ā
The three of them returned to the restaurant together, and when Xue Xia saw Zhang Xuezhou in the center of the judges' seat, her already ugly face was ugly, and she said coldly: "It seems that Da Longyuan wants to kill us this time!" ā
Lu Chen wondered and asked, "Sister Xue, what's wrong?" ā
"Look at the old man in the center of the judges' seat, he is one of the top gourmets in China, and his status in Xiangyuan is unparalleled, and he may not be able to win with Master Liu." Xue Xia said and stretched out her finger and pointed to Zhang Xuezhou on the seat.
Lu Chen looked over, the surprise in his heart, huh? Isn't this the old man who has to eat his golden fried rice in the hospital, he also estimated that this old man is either a chef or a foodie, and now it seems that he really guessed correctly, but what does this have to do with winning or losing? Could it be that this old man and the teacher are mortal enemies?
Xiao Chen saw Lu Chen's doubts and explained, "He is the father of the actual owner of the Dalongyuan Hotel. ā
What? It turns out that this is the case, no wonder Xue Xia's face is ugly and scary, hum! Lu Chen was also unhappy, he had a good impression of your old man before, but he didn't expect it to be such a person.
Lu Chen and the three of them were still unhappy at the door of the restaurant, and some of the guests sitting in the audience were not satisfied, and he said loudly: "What's the matter with this chef Liu Wangnian of Liting?" It's going to be a game and you don't see anyone yet? Are you afraid to come? ā
It was loud enough that everyone in the restaurant heard it, and the position of the TV camera immediately shifted to the audience.
Not good! This thought immediately rose in Xue Xia's mind, she was able to call out Liu Wangnian's name in one mouthful, and she deliberately said it so loudly, this was obviously to make trouble!
