Chapter 279: Thank you for your patronage!
"The date is set for tomorrow, no problem, right?
No problem, okay, next item.
Topic... Since you're a student at King's Branch, you must be best at French cuisine. ”
Qian Chen spoke quickly, not giving Ignatz a chance to repent.
Ignatz forcibly used his already dizzy brain, thought about it for a while, and found that the conditions were favorable to him, so he readily agreed to Qian Chen's plan.
He didn't realize that Sophia's eyes looking at him had changed from disgust and indifference to pity.
"Alright, let's decide on the last one...
How many points are you going to put forward as a bet? ”
Qian Chen said with a smile on his face.
Sophia on the side looked at Qian Chen speechlessly, like a cunning profiteer, luring innocent consumers step by step into the trap he had set in advance.
Ignatz hesitated for a moment, glanced at Sophia next to him, and then gritted his teeth.
"I'm betting 500...
"What!? It's only 500!? For the sake of your beloved dream lover, you are only willing to give 500 points? ”
Qian Chen had an exaggerated expression.
He looked at Sophia on the side, then turned his head and looked at Ignatz with a contemptuous expression, and said in a tone like a flower calling a flower.
"Forget it, 500 is..."
Ignatz was stimulated by Qian Chen's gaze and movements, and his blood surged to his brain on the spot.
"Wait! I bet 1000! ”
"That's pretty much it. If you are a man, you have to be generous, especially in front of your goddess. ”
Qian Chen nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time did not forget to tease him.
Then, without waiting for him to refute, Qian Chen said to Sophia.
"Then ask Miss Sophia to be a witness."
Sophia, however, looked him up and down as if she had seen him for the first time, with a strange look in her eyes.
It took a long time to spit out a word.
"Okay."
Qian Chen didn't care about Sophia's strange performance, and instead patted Ignatz on the shoulder.
"I guess as a man, you shouldn't miss an appointment."
Ignatz glanced at Sophia beside him, and his blood suddenly rushed to his brain.
"Humph! The men of the Sherwood family never miss an appointment! Just wait for me to teach you a hard lesson! ”
After speaking, he glanced at Sophia with great nostalgia and turned to leave.
Looking at his back, Qian Chen muttered in a low voice that only he could hear.
"Thank you for your patronage!"
Turning his head, Qian Chen found that Sophia looked at him very strangely, and couldn't help but say.
"What's wrong?"
Sophia shook her head almost subconsciously, and even a hint of fear was hidden in the depths of her eyes, leaving only one sentence.
"Good luck."
He hurried away.
Qian Chen turned his head to look at Vanessa behind him.
"What's wrong with her?"
Vanessa smiled softly.
"Maybe Miss Sophia isn't feeling well."
Qian Chen nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, the system directly gives a temporary side quest.
However, the rewards are scarce, only 10 talent points, plus a random blue recipe, which is better than nothing.
"Senior, do you need the details of Ignatz?"
Vanessa said suddenly.
Qian Chen looked at her in surprise, and the expression on Vanessa's face was still so faint and soft. Qian Chen felt that there was an unfathomable meaning in it.
It seems that his gentle school girl doesn't seem to be a simple person.
Qian Chen thought with some surprise.
"No, forget it, sometimes it's fun to meet unknown enemies."
Qian Chen still didn't say a word.
That kid is obviously worried about his IQ and lacks momentum on his body, Qian Chen only needs to think about how to win beauty now.
At this time, Qian Chen inexplicably felt a sight coming from the woods next to him.
The gaze was completely undisguised, and even Vanessa seemed to feel it.
She glanced in that direction, and then said to Qian Chen.
"Senior, it's Her Royal Highness Princess Anna...
There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.
Qian Chen said very freely.
"Ignore her, let's go back and try some cooking."
After saying that, he didn't look back and walked forward.
"Okay, senpai."
Vanessa glanced at it, then followed Qian Chen's pace.
After Qian Chen and Vanessa walked away, the leaves shook for a while, revealing a white figure, and the sky blue eyes were staring at Qian Chen's back tightly.
It's not who Anastasia is.
From the beginning of the school year, Her Royal Highness the princess of Tsarist Russia seemed to be eyeing him, as if she had her peeping eyes anytime and anywhere.
No, this can't be considered voyeurism anymore, it's all about staring in the open.
Looking at the distant figures of the two, the delicate little face like a doll did not have any expression change.
At this time, two female students walked on the side of the path, and they were talking and laughing.
But when they subconsciously looked up and saw Anastasia by the woods, their voices suddenly stopped.
Anna turned her head when she heard the commotion, looking at them with a blank expression.
Anastasia: Staring~~~
The two girls couldn't help but shudder, then lowered their heads, held hands and rushed forward with their heads under the gaze of Anastasia, and quickly left the place.
When the two of them couldn't see her at all, they couldn't help but slow down and patted their chests.
One of the blue-haired girls said.
"That senior sister's gaze is so terrifying."
The red-haired girl beside her nodded repeatedly.
"It's like you're going to freeze people into popsicles, it's terrible!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but clasp his hands on his chest and shake a little.
On the other side, the St. Joan of Arc Academy said that it was not big or small, and the news that Qian Chen and Ignatz were about to start a duel soon spread throughout the academy.
However, most of the students were optimistic about Ignatz.
There are several reasons for this.
First, Qian Chen was only promoted to special chef this year, and Ignatz has been promoted to special chef for three years.
Second, the title of the duel was actually the main course in the French set menu, which the students of King's Chambering were more good at.
No matter how you look at it, Qian Chen, a person from the Celestial Empire who has sprung up, has no advantages.
Leaving aside the King's Branches, the Knight and Navy Branches also mostly supported Ignatz's victory, and only a few people supported Qian Chen.
Among the Knights' Chamber.
The cadets in white knight's uniforms were talking about the duel.
"That Celestial Empire man is so arrogant!"
"That's right! You must know that Ignatz is ranked 43rd among the 50 people on the first page, and he is not comparable to those who have just been promoted to special chef. ”
"Let's let Ignatz's predecessors educate that Celestial Empire person well. Let him know that France is the France of our Frenchmen! ”
Kohei Soma listened to the other students' discussions, and looked out the window boredly.
Compared with Qian Chen, who came from the Celestial Empire, he, a Japanese, was even more unpopular.
The people in this academy are all descendants of the nobility, and everyone is a cultured person, and there will be no very bloody and blatant targeting, but the deliberate alienation is obvious, completely excluding him from the small circle and treating him as a transparent person.
