Thinking about it seems to be a common problem among aristocrats.

According to the formal process of the consortium, the food presented to the banquet needs to be reviewed layer by layer, and finally needs to be approved by the head maid, but because of Miss Isabel's instructions, this process was directly skipped, leaving Gilves's servants busy like ants on a hot pot.

Since it was a temporary order, the kitchen did not prepare the ingredients in advance, so Song Lan could only make full use of the leftover parts of yesterday, and also had to meet the theme of "dim sum" or "dessert" proposed by the eldest lady.

He felt that the pressure of the cooking talent show might not be as good as here.

After all, if you miss the talent show, you will only get a fierce look from the judges, but if these missed dishes are eaten by the family members of the consortium, then your chef career and even your entire life may come to an end.

This also indirectly shows that the chef of the consortium is a very important position.

They can directly harm the high-ranking family members at any time, and the censor is only responsible for checking whether the dishes are adulterated with poison, but for experienced chefs, they can use the dishes themselves to destroy the hearts and minds of those who taste them without using poison.

"Mr. Luqi, this means that the eldest lady has a lot of trust in your abilities."

The older servant was busy and stepped forward to say something to Song Lan.

His position in the Gilves family was probably equivalent to that of a handyman manager, and the young servants who were watching the martial arts together just now were basically his subordinates.

Observing words and emotions is the basic ability of this industry, he knows that it is right to hug Song Lan's thighs, as long as he has a good relationship with Song Lan, he may be happy that the other party can teach him a hand in cooking.

The eldest lady gave Song Lan a complete problem, in a very short time, using the remaining ingredients in the kitchen to prepare snacks for the core members of the family, even in this case, he was still able to methodically use these leftovers to design more than a dozen kinds of dim sum with different characteristics.

"Mr. Lucci, this is my personal question, could you please tell me what is the secret of being a good chef?"

The older servant asked again.

Before that, the royal chefs of the Gilves family had changed back and forth several times, and he had seen the famous chefs of the most exclusive restaurants, but none of them could come close to Song Lan.

They always stick to a fixed menu and don't dare to take a step into unfamiliar territory, so that once the freshness has passed, they can no longer please the eldest lady and the ladies.

However, Song Lan seemed to have endless knowledge in his mind, and in the day he came to the consortium, he had already served more than ten kinds of dishes.

"Watch more, learn more, practice more...... But that's not what you're trying to hear, right? ”

"Hmm."

The older servant nodded solemnly.

"There was once a mysterious chef who said that the secret to being the best chef is to meet a woman who can give her all her dishes from the bottom of her heart."

When Song Lan first heard about this theory, he was still a single dog, holding a bucket of instant noodles and quenching his thirst with the food on the screen.

And after meeting Lu Xiang, he had a deeper feeling for this theory.

Over the past few months, his cooking has improved by leaps and bounds, occasionally joting down ideas that come to mind or recipes that exist in his head – something he never worked on when he was a student.

"You mean Miss?"

The older servant was stunned.

"Nope."

Song Lan shook her head, "The eldest lady is not my type. ”

"Could it be...... Lady Karita? ”

The servant's eyes widened in astonishment, after all, he had heard that Mr. Rob-Luci had been personally invited by Madame Carida to bring in the Consortium, given the level of confusion in the private lives of the nobles......

"You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense."

Song Lan hurriedly clarified, he was deeply aware of the horror of the gossip, especially now that Director Lu was also in the castle, God knows what would happen when these rumors reached her ears, "She is not from the second district, there is only one reason why I came here, when I earn enough money, I will go back to my hometown to get married." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

This time it was the turn of the older servant to be anxious, and judging from his many years of experience, there were basically no people who could say such things without a good death.

However, Song Lan's answer gave him some references.

Just when Song Lan and the others were busy in the back kitchen, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was solemn, and they took their ability to smile and not smile to the extreme, they held wine glasses, wore hypocritical masks, and confused each other with insincere words.

The change in the martial arts made the power within the consortium confusing again.

This is the ripple effect of Kane's defeat.

They all saw the ominous psionic energy that had surged from him, and the appearance that seemed to be corrupted by the unclean power, and the unconscious Kane was rushed to the hospital as soon as possible, most of them anxiously awaiting the latest news from the hospital.

If Kane is determined to have used some kind of nefarious force, or if he points the finger at Colin Capello, they will have to reconsider who they are supporting.

Jasmine was out of place with the atmosphere of the whole banquet.

She was the only one sitting in the corner, intoxicated and enjoying the snacks that kept being served.

The chef, Rob Lucci, was the only one who surprised her, and she thought to herself that if the consortium fired him one day, she might be able to hire him as her personal chef.

With her six-star salvage salary, hiring a private chef should be more than enough.

"Eat, eat, eat! You know how to eat! ”

An unpleasant voice reached Jasmine's ears, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall fell silent for a moment as the visitor appeared, and most people's eyes were focused on the woman in light knight's armor.

Yueji looked at Jasmine, who treated the banquet as a cafeteria, and suddenly became angry.

"You were obviously at the scene, and you made such a big disturbance at the sealing ceremony!"

"Stop, stop."

Jasmine gestured with a pause, "I'm not from the consortium, what does your canonization ceremony have to do with me?" Instead of getting angry at me, why don't you sit down and try this, this thing called fruit soup is quite distinctive. ”

Yueji rolled her eyes, but she still sat across from Jasmine, absentmindedly stirring the fruit in the bowl with a spoon.

"It's you, where have you been on such an important day today?"

"I have to be present at the internal meeting of the consortium."

"Richard called you away again? Is he so afraid that someone will assassinate him? ”

Jasmine lowered her voice and asked in a low voice.

Richard Gilves is Isabel's father and the current ruler of the Iris Consortium, but she has never had any crush on the old fox.

The recent frequent repression by the Ragus Foundation in the Council has made Richard seem to have finally entered menopause and become moody.

"Let's not talk about that."

Yueji shook her head, "The results are out at the hospital, it's about Kane." ”

"How?"

"He's in a strange situation, the exoskeleton armor seems to have grown on his body, and he can't take it off anymore, and the doctors have tried a lot of things, and finally they think that the knight's armor has become a part of his body."

"Then what will he do when he goes to the toilet in the future?"

Jasmine blurted out, and the conversation instantly fell into a cold silence.

Yueji looked at her sister with stern eyes, she hadn't seen her for a while, how did Jasmine become like this?

Jasmine covered her mouth with her left hand and stuck out her tongue weakly, she also realized that it seemed a little inappropriate to ask such a thing in her own capacity, but this is the after-effect of being with δ for a long time, and it is hard not to be affected by the fact that people are chattering in your ears every day.

She coughed lightly, lowered her face, and showed her attitude towards work, "The situation you said is a bit like a mutation, the expatriate department mentioned that they have encountered similar mutant constructs near the Third Neutral Country, but I need to check the specific situation myself." ”

"But that's not enough to explain the psychic energy that burst out before he fell unconscious, I just checked his information, and there is no indication that he is a psychic person, you were at the scene at the time, and you didn't even notice any anomaly?"

"Anyway, I'm also a six-star rescuer."

Jasmine said, "This kind of psionic strength should have been done by those prisoners who escaped from the seventh district. ”

"That's exactly what I'm worried about."

Yueji frowned, "One of them has infiltrated the castle. ”

There may also be more than one......

Jasmine hesitated for a long time and finally decided to hide the existence of δ.

On the way to the ballroom, δ made it clear that the changes that had taken place in Kane were the work of her kind.

"You haven't been good at fighting since you were a child, so you must pay attention to safety."

Yueji sighed, and finally took a sip of the fruit soup handed by Jasmine, because of work, they had little time to meet, and when they finally met, they were basically for business.

"You too, I'll check on the hospital, by the way, and the lord who was bitten off by his own pet, what are you going to do with him? It annoys me to watch him dangling in front of me. ”

Jasmine mentions the Crimson Lord.

This lord is in the same vein as the Capello family, and even dares to treat her as the object of flirtation, "If you don't get him away again, I'm really afraid that I will break his neck by mistake." ”

For the lord, a broken hand or foot was not a serious injury at all.

Despite the fact that he looked dying when he was carried into the hospital, after a simple operation and a new prosthetic body, the Crimson Lord was able to be discharged before dawn.

The reason why he has been staying in the hospital is because of passive isolation.

In this way, Yueji made it impossible for him to return to his knights for a short time.

"You won't."

Yueji smiled dumbly, "You will only save people...... I'll take care of him, though. ”
