Chapter 142: Old Rivals

In the third-level assessment area, in the open space in front of the invigilator seat, Wang Ming was slightly stunned as the voice fell, and then, the eyes that had been ancient and waveless, when he looked at that figure, his pupils shrank slightly, and then his brows furrowed.

"Li Fanming."

Wang Ming said secretly in his heart, and when his lips were bitten lightly, the gaze looking at Li Fanming became complicated.

In the previous life, the old Chuanlu Hotel.

The little chef who has been unknown and introverted has been oppressed, and basically all the hard and tiring errands are his, but after work, when the little chef quietly practices knife work when others are resting, and quietly observes the methods and techniques of other people's work, there is always such a figure, which appears in front of him.

Reprimanded, ridiculed, ridiculed, and suppressed, doing his best to only let Wang Ming come into contact with some jobs with almost no technical content, and at that time, the poverty of his family, the introverted teenager, and the submissive personality all made him suffer silently, but at the bottom of his heart, a strong almost indissolvable hatred gradually swelled up, until by chance, he was guided by the old master Wei Tianxiang, and the hatred that had been suppressed in his heart was like seeing the hope of catharsis. made his whole person like a madman, and spent all his time to study and scrutinize and practice.

After the old master left, Wang Ming's days returned to the previous model, but the difference is that at that time, he also had some new views on the understanding of the kitchen, and finally after jumping ship, he worked harder to improve himself, in order to no longer be looked down upon, no longer bullied by his peers, and for the humiliation and suppression he suffered at the beginning, he will finally return it one day.

However, when he became famous, he learned that Li Fanming, who was only less than a year older than himself, went abroad for further study through the recommendation of Lao Chuanlu, and when he came back, both identity and fame were no longer comparable to Wang Ming, who was only a little famous at that time, and this also caused Wang Ming to have a trace of frustration, and he was also confined to his own small circle until he was reborn.

At first, the moment he saw Li Fanming, Wang Ming's heart was churning with anger, but he still endured it, in order to be able to improve himself as soon as possible, he did not allow himself to waste time on this already tasteless hatred, and even said to himself in his heart, the two will never meet again, why bother.

But now, the old opponent of the previous life appeared in front of him with the same young attitude, there was still contempt in his eyes, and his chest was straightened, and there was still a faint feeling of superiority, which made Wang Ming already have a calm heart, and now he has made waves again.

"I'm sorry, my time is precious, wasting this kind of useless competition is a bit of a luxury for me, so I refuse."

Facing Li Fanming's gaze, Wang Ming took a deep breath, suppressed the tangle in his heart, and when his face gradually returned to normal, he said expressionlessly, as his voice fell, the people around him who had already paid attention to Li Fanming's challenging words showed a look of disappointment on their faces at this time, many of them also knew Li Fanming quite well, one of the three apprentices of Lao Chuan Lutouhuo Chef, who was very famous in this area.

And everyone's understanding of Wang Ming, although not as profound as Li Fanming, but the three chef assessment certificates of different colors in the latter's hand also show that Wang Ming is extraordinary, and therefore, they are full of expectations for this so-called challenge, but what they didn't expect is that Wang Ming directly refused, and the reason was also quite arrogant, and he didn't seem to put Li Fanming in front of him in his eyes.

In the face of Wang Ming's answer, Li Fanming smiled slightly, but the dark eyes under the two sword eyebrows flashed coldly, with his identity, he took the initiative to make an appointment with Wang Ming, in his opinion, he had lowered his figure, if it wasn't for such an agreement with that person, he would definitely not do this.

"Everyone's time is precious, in this way, if you are sure to go to the second-level assessment area with me to discuss the level, then, I can add five hundred chips, provided that you can win, of course, if you lose, don't worry, for this money, I Li Fanming still don't care."

Li Fanming opened his mouth and said, in order to be able to make that agreement come to an end, he also had helplessness in his heart, but as he said, although Wu Baiyuan's amount is not small, it does not have much impact on him, and in his opinion, even if he opens a bargaining chip, whether he can take it depends on Wang Ming's true ability, he was born in Lao Chuanlu, and he also has great confidence in his craft.

As Li Fanming's voice fell, there was an uproar among the surrounding onlookers, obviously a little surprised by what Li Fanming said, but at the same time, the attention to Wang Ming was even higher.

was also stunned by Li Fanming's conditions, Wang Ming fell silent, although he did not agree, but his heart was also shaken, although five hundred yuan is not a huge amount of money, the money that can be sent to the door, if you don't want it, it is inevitable that you will be a little sorry for such a good opportunity arranged by God, not to mention, the opponent is still Li Fanming.

At this time, looking at the gazes cast one after another, Wang Ming groaned slightly, the thought in his heart fell, and just as he was about to speak, the gaze of Li Fanming, who was standing not far away, was withdrawn from Lu Tianfeng's body without a trace, and there was a faint anger on his face that flashed away.

"What? Too little? 1,000 yuan, compete with me. ”

Li Fanming's face was a little ugly, when his eyes were withdrawn from Lu Tianfeng, the impatience on that ordinary face flashed in his mind, and he didn't notice Wang Ming's actions at all.

Wang Ming was slightly stunned in his heart, and then almost laughed, at this time looking at the expression on Li Fanming's face, he suddenly felt very comfortable in his heart, and after the words on his lips were swallowed by him, a touch of embarrassment also appeared on his delicate face, and he also saw it at this moment, I don't know what the reason is, Li Fanming is anxious to compete with himself, as for the result, maybe Li Fanming is confident, and therefore, the expression on his face gradually became indifferent, but the urgency that permeated faintly in his eyes, But he was still carefully captured by Wang Ming.

Wang Ming was not in a hurry, while his heart was comfortable, he had a look of embarrassment on his face, and he wanted to stop talking, and the faces of the onlookers around him were anxious, but Lu Tianfeng, who had been silently observing Wang Ming, showed contempt on his face.

"Alas, I still have to go to work in the afternoon, and if I go back late, I will have to deduct my salary for several days, not to mention that I won't be able to keep my full attendance."

Wang Ming said softly, there was helplessness and entanglement in his words, and the look of embarrassment on his face made Li Fanming's heart full of anger, and there was also gloom on his handsome face.

"No matter how many chips you open, you have the ability to get them."

Li Fanming said secretly in his heart, and immediately suppressed the anger in his heart, and when he spoke, the gloom on his face gradually faded, and was replaced by the same lofty look, and even looked at Wang Ming's eyes, and the contempt was even stronger.

"Two thousand, to compare"

However, this time, before Li Fanming's words fell, Wang Ming's spirit shook suddenly, and the brilliance flashed in his dark eyes.

"Deal."
