Sikong Yao was exchanging knowledge related to desserts with the pastry chefs in the baking room, when Sikong Lu's appearance made Sikong Yao pause slightly, and then changed the topic.

"Brother? What are you doing here? ”

Sikong Lu nodded and said, "Xiao Yao, you come out, I have something I want to tell you." ”

Sikong Yao's two curved willow eyebrows subconsciously fanned quietly, and some small confusion arose in his heart, what happened to my brother, he deliberately came here to find himself.

"Brother, is there something wrong?" Sikong Yao asked.

Sikong Lu looked at the dessert chefs around him, and they also dispersed very willingly, this time must be avoided, they have been mixed in the workplace for several years, and this basic knowledge is still there. After the dessert chefs took the initiative to disperse, Sikong Yao had no way to continue communicating with them.

Sikong Lu then said, "Xiao Yao, come here." ”

Sikong Yao shrugged his shoulders and realized that something seemed wrong. I only saw that old-fashioned man last night, presumably he should have said something to his brother, at this moment, Sikong Lu deliberately came to talk to him, I am afraid that it has something to do with that man, Sikong Yao is still a little resistant subconsciously. Because this kind of thing is probably not a good thing.

Sikong Yao left the baking room and followed Sikong Lu to a small conference room, the atmosphere along the way was a little dignified, making people feel a little uneasy and depressed.

Sikong Yao's dark eyes were full of worry and confusion, constantly thinking about the issues that might be involved next. Sikong Yao thought to himself that it was probably the same thing that he had quarreled with his father before, maybe he still held a grudge, maybe he couldn't wipe his face. Do you want to get yourself back? Or is it a complete rupture? Sikong Yao added a lot of troubles to himself out of thin air, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt a little afraid. I can only silently pray that I won't quarrel with my brother again.

The scene last night really frightened her, and her brother, who had never lost his temper, suddenly had such strong mood swings. It also let her know that she should pay more attention to her words. After all, that is also the brother who loves himself, and Sikong Yao doesn't want to have any unpleasant things with him. At least, everyone still has the same blood on their bodies.

Sikong Yao's non-stop careful thoughts along the way were all written on his face, anxiety and uneasiness were clear at a glance, Sikong Lu took it all in his eyes, and he didn't want to go around in any circles with Sikong Yao at this time, so he said bluntly: "Xiao Yao, do you know why I called you over?" ”

If you know, there will be ghosts, if Sikong Yao knows. There is no need to worry along the way.

Sikong Yao immediately shook his head and said truthfully: "I don't know." ”

Sikong Lu nodded, and said with some difficulty: "I hope you don't attend tomorrow's opening ceremony." ”

"What?" Sikong Yao's brows suddenly rose, and his eyes became fierce.

Sikong Lu said again: "Xiao Yao, don't attend tomorrow, stay in the restaurant obediently, or go out to play." ”

Sikong Yao gritted his teeth and asked angrily, "Brother." What do you mean? Why didn't you let me attend the opening ceremony? ”

Sikong Yao was almost holding back at this time to prevent his emotions from leading his reason, but he still felt a burst of anger and intense incomprehension. The opening ceremony of the Heart of the Holy Food has feelings that others can't understand. Moreover, Sikong Yao has already agreed with Ke Yundan to help him win one of the three test places. Now my brother comes to me and says he doesn't want to participate, what's going on?

Sikong Lu said with difficulty again: "Xiao Yao, I know this is a little difficult for you to accept. But I still hope you don't attend this opening tomorrow. ”

"Can you tell me why?" Sikong Yao saw the difficulty in Sikong Lu's expression, and she knew that her brother was not unable to understand herself. So I chose a more peaceful way to deal with this matter.

Sikong Lu sighed and said, "It's all for your good. ”

Sikong Yao's brows tightened. The puzzled charm was all written on his face, and he suddenly thought of some unpleasant things in his heart, and then asked, "Did he say something?" ”

Sikong Lu knew who he was talking about, so he shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with Dad, this is my own meaning." ”

Sikong Yao snorted and said, "Brother, don't lie to me, what did Dad tell you?" ”

Sikong Lu shook his head and said again: "Dad didn't say anything, it was because I felt that the dark side of this world was too heavy for you after I went back last night, and my brother still hopes that you can live a plain life and not get involved in too many of these deceitful things." ”

Sikong Yao denied: "I don't want to live an ordinary life, I just want to be an ordinary pastry chef, open my own dessert shop, and then engage in the work I like every day, and then keep improving my cooking skills, and then make more delicious dishes." This doesn't have anything to do with my participation in the opening ceremony of the Heart of the Sacred Food tomorrow, and I don't want to participate in any battle for power in the food world. Brother, I think you know. ”

Sikong Lu sighed again, and then said: "Brother understands, but sometimes, many things are not what you want, and once you go in, you will never be able to get out again. ”

Sikong Yao said in a resolute tone: "I just helped Mayor Ke get the test quota and handed over the test qualification to the master chef, and then everything has nothing to do with me, and attending this opening ceremony is just to make up for a little regret." ”

Sikong Lu suddenly smiled bitterly, after all, she is still a little girl who has not been deeply involved in the world, and her thoughts are indeed too naïve, many things in this world are not what you think, and many things are not what you think you can do. Desperation and compulsion will always be much more than you can budget.

Sikong Lu is a person who understands, and he understands the helplessness of this world better than Sikong Yao, at this time, he can only continue to dissuade his sister and say: "Xiao Yao, although you think so, but others don't think so, do you know, many things, others will not understand you." ”

Sikong Yao shook his head and said, "I don't need others to understand, anyway, after I get the place in the test, I will return it to Mayor Ke, and everything that follows has nothing to do with me, you know, I have no intention of wanting to join the master chef, and the internal struggles in the food industry have nothing to do with me, and I will not participate in these things that have nothing to do with me." ”

Sikong Lu sighed for the third time, in the end, he still said it too tactfully, and he really had to make it clear, wouldn't his naïve sister be so stupid as to be a shield for others.

Sikong Lu shook his head and denied Sikong Yao's statement, and then explained: "Xiao Yao, you are too simple. This world is more sinister than you think, everyone acts for their own interests, there is no pure good and evil, only absolute pros and cons. The Master Chef and the Key to Greed are only the opposite of each other's respective positions, and the Master Chef is not absolutely good, and they certainly have their own secrets. At the very least, Mom wasn't happy to join Master Chef, so I figured I wouldn't let you take the risk if I could protect you. ”

Sikong Yao's confusion was like a ball of silk entangled in his heart, and he couldn't unravel it no matter how hard he tried, and asked, "Brother, how dangerous it can be, it's just a cooking competition." ”

Sikong Lu's tone raised a few decibels, and he said bluntly: "Xiao Yao, have you ever thought about what others will think of you once you get a place in the test. Others only know that you are the eldest lady of Minghe Restaurant, others only know that you have obtained the test place, and others will only think that you are a little lamb who can start. It doesn't matter what you make with the MasterChef, whether the test is on you or not, people who don't know the facts will only try to get what they want from you. You will become the target of public criticism, Ke Yundan wants to use you as a shield, I don't want you to be used by them! ”

"This ......" Sikong Yao frowned, he really hadn't thought about these things.

Sikong Lu further said: "And...... Ke Yundan, is he really a master chef? ”

Sikong Yao's pupils formed a line, and he said in horror: "Brother, what do you mean ......?"

Sikong Lu nodded and agreed, "That's right, maybe he's the one with the key to greed?" The two organizations know about the things that Ke Yundan said, right? Moreover, what Ke Yundan said that day, such as the Ancient Advent and the Biological Recovery Plan, etc., are all secrets that belong to the Key of Greed, since Ke Yundan is a member of the Master Chef, how can he be so familiar? ”

Sikong Yao gritted her teeth, what her brother said was not unreasonable, Sikong Yao had always had a preconceived attitude towards Ke Yundan, no matter what Ke Yundan said, she never doubted it, and she couldn't grasp the truth of many things. This assumption that Ke Yundan is really a member of the Key of Greed is not unreasonable. Put yourself in their shoes, if Sikong Yao himself is a member of the Key of Greed, it is indeed the best way to use disguise.

A feeling of being used spontaneously, Sikong Yao felt that he had become a shield against the black cauldron, from beginning to end, Sikong Yao trusted Ke Yundan too much, and did not study his identity, which would inevitably make him suffer a big loss in the future.

Thinking of this, Sikong Yao nodded solemnly and responded, "Brother, what you say, I will consider it." (To be continued......)
