Translator: 549690339
“I didn’t expect you to come today.” Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing went up to them. Ling Hong said with a slightly worried tone.
“Of course, today is your big day.” Manion smiled and said gently.
“Thank you,” she said. Ruan Xiaoqing bowed slightly and thanked him sincerely.
“You’re welcome,” Manion looked at ruan Xiaoqing and shook his head.
“I’ll bring you to have a seat. Head chef Yuan is here today.” Ling Hong didn’t stop ruan Xiaoqing from doing that. He only said that after she finished bowing.
“No need, I won’t stay for long.” Manion shook his head.
“Then, you ...” Ruan Xiaoqing and Ling Hong looked at Manion worriedly and said hesitantly.
“It’s nothing. I’m here to give you the gifts that my wife and I have prepared.” Manion looked at the gift box in his hand and said in a warm tone.
“Thank you,” he said. Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing said in unison.
“You’re welcome. You know that Sharon and Xiao Qing were very close back then, so we prepared this.” Manion shook his head.
“Thank you, Mr. Manion. Thank you, Sharon.” Ruan Xiaoqing was a little choked up. She turned her head and closed her eyes slightly, then turned her head to thank him.
“You’re welcome. I hope you’ll be happy forever. ” Manion gave the box to Ling Hong solemnly and then warned him.
“We will,” Ling Hong tilted his head and said to ruan Xiaoqing gently.
......
“That’s good. I’m leaving. ” Manion nodded and left.
“Mr. Manion, I hope you’ll be well.” Ruan Xiaoqing said to Manion’s back.
“I know. Otherwise, Sharon will be angry.” Manion said with a gentle smile.
Ruan Xiaoqing and Ling Hong just watched Manion turn around and leave. He stood at the entrance of the banquet hall for quite a while before ruan Xiaoqing said,”
“Ah Hong, thank you.” Ruan Xiaoqing said.
“No, I should be the one thanking you.” Ling Hong bent over and planted a kiss on ruan Xiaoqing’s forehead. Then, he continued,””Let’s go in, everyone’s here. ”
“Alright,” he said. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
“You have to be happy today. We’ll only get married once in our lives. After all, you can’t remarry.” Ling Hong teased ruan Xiaoqing when he saw that she was a little depressed.
“I know. I’ll marry you even if I have to remarry.” Ruan Xiaoqing let go of the worry and fear in her heart and said with a smile.
“It’s good that you know. You’ve been firmly trapped by me. ” Ling Hong held ruan Xiaoqing’s hand and signaled her to look at the huge diamond ring on his ring finger.
“I said it was too exaggerated. This is too big.” Ruan Xiaoqing couldn’t help but say in a good mood.
That’s right. Ruan Xiaoqing was wearing Ling Hong’s wedding ring on her ring finger. It was really big and stood out on ruan Xiaoqing’s slender fingers. She didn’t know if it was beautiful, but she felt that it was a little heavy.
“This is all the money I’ve earned in the past few years, you have to take good care of it.” Ling Hong said with a smile.
“Yes, yes, yes, I know.” Ruan Xiaoqing smiled helplessly.
The main table wasn’t very far from the entrance of the banquet hall, so the two of them quickly returned to the main table.
Naturally, the small talk was done by Ling Hong. He told Xiaoqing the reason why they got married so soon.
Ling Hong still said the same thing. He hoped to have a proper identity as soon as possible. When he said that, all the people at the scene smiled kindly.
Ling Hong’s mother even said to ruan Xiaoqing’s parents with a smile,””This kid is a little out of line, but he’s a good person. Please don’t mind him, in-laws.”
“No, no, it’s Xiao Qing’s good fortune to have met Ah Hong.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s parents quickly waved their hands.
“This isn’t right. It’s that kid’s good fortune.” Ling Hong’s father shook his head and said earnestly,””The kid has grown up and matured.”
“Yes, it has matured.” Ling Hong’s mother couldn’t help sighing with emotion.
This made ruan Xiaoqing’s parents speechless for a moment.
Fortunately, the atmosphere was good and nobody paid attention to that. After Ling Hong finished speaking, the waiters started to serve the dishes one after another.
Ling Hong also sat down with ruan Xiaoqing and waited for the meal.
This wedding not only invited close friends and family, but it was also extremely simple and did not have any complicated ceremony.
It was because Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing had already finished the ring exchange themselves.
It was equivalent to everyone sitting together for a meal. Although it was less formal and a little simple, it was warm.
When the dishes were served, Ling Hong stood up again and said to everyone,””After lunch, Xiao Qing and I decided to go on a honeymoon.”
“It’s good. I’ve been wanting to relax for a long time. ” Jiang Changxi said immediately.
“If boss Yuan wasn’t unwilling to travel around with me, I would also go out to have a look.” The one who said that was naturally Wu Hai.
“No, I’m not going. I’m just like Xiao Ya.” Yuan Zhou refused her primly.
Stroking his small mustaches, Wu Hai intended to persuade Yuan Zhou to give up the idea, but he gave up the idea after thinking for a while.
“Yes, yes, yes. A honeymoon is a must.”
“Have fun, have fun.”
“Young people should go out and see the world. It’s good.”
“In the past, you guys were busy with work. Now, this is time to play. Have fun.”
Everyone supported him wholeheartedly, even Ling Hong’s parents and ruan Xiaoqing’s parents.
“Then, Sister Jiang, you have to show mercy to my company. I have a family now. Don’t let you take over the company when I’m not around.” Ling Hong said jokingly.
“I know. Don’t worry. I’ll leave you the money for the milk powder.” Jiang Changxi stroked her hair and said generously.
“Then I really have to thank Sister Jiang.” After Ling Hong said that, he immediately said to ruan Xiaoqing coquettishly,””Honey, I’m afraid the company will be in danger when we get back. You have to support me then.”
“Don’t mess around,” Ruan Xiaoqing was a little shy and couldn’t help tugging Ling Hong’s sleeve.
“I’m serious. Look, all my assets are with you. ” Ling Hong leaned his head on ruan Xiaoqing’s shoulder and said.
“Alright, alright, I know.” Ruan Xiaoqing agreed helplessly. Then, Ling Hong stood up.
“Tsk, this dog food.” Jiang Changxi looked at Ling Hong with contempt, but Wu Hai didn’t notice it at all. He was waiting for the dishes to be served wholeheartedly.
The dishes were served one after another. One could tell that there were quite a lot of dishes. At that time, Ling Hong turned his head and said to Yuan Zhou,””Today is my wedding banquet with Xiao Qing. Did you make any special dishes?”
Without waiting for Yuan Zhou’s answer, Ling Hong held up ruan Xiaoqing’s hand and continued,””You know, we’re going on our honeymoon trip soon. It’s been a long time since we last ate the dishes in your restaurant.”
“Yeah. I’ll definitely miss the dishes you cook, boss Yuan.” Ruan Xiaoqing nodded in agreement.
“Although I don’t open a branch, you can come back at any time if you want to eat it. My shop has always been in Taoxi road.” Yuan Zhou said indifferently.
Both Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing were stunned when they heard that. But soon, Ling Hong said,””Of course, as long as Xiao Qing wants to eat, we will immediately come back.”
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
At that time, almost all the dishes were served. Ling Hong stood up again and told everyone to start eating.
The banquet didn’t last long. About an hour later, all the guests at the three tables put down their chopsticks.
The plates and cups on the table were clean, and everyone had finished the food.
At that time, Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing also stood up and started to see the guests off.
Apart from ruan Xiaoqing’s parents and Ling Hong’s parents, Yuan Zhou and Yin ya were the last to leave.
Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing didn’t thank them until they saw them off at the entrance of the hotel.
“Thank you, compass.” Ling Hong said.
“Thank you, boss Yuan. Thank you, Xiaoya.” Ruan Xiaoqing also thanked him again.
“You’re welcome. You’ve thanked us so many times today. If you continue to say more, Yuan Zhou and I will be unhappy. ” Yin ya shook her head and said.
“Yes, I won’t say it.” Ruan Xiaoqing nodded in agreement.
“Have a safe journey.” Yuan Zhou said.
“Of course, we’ll fly to the Aegean Sea in the afternoon. I heard that the sea there is very blue, and little Qing has long wanted to go and see it.” Ling Hong said while holding little Qing’s hand tightly.
“Yeah, I heard that it’s very beautiful there.” Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
“Will it be too tiring if we fly directly in the afternoon?” Yin ya asked worriedly.
“No, Hong said he booked the plane. That way, we can rest on the plane.” Ruan Xiaoqing shook her head.
“...” Speechless, Yin ya thought in her heart,””Alright, I don’t understand the world of the nouveau riche.”
“See you next time,” Yuan Zhou said.
“Alright, see you next time.” Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing nodded in unison.
Then, Yuan Zhou left while holding Yin ya’s hand.
“I wonder when I can eat the wedding wine of boss Yuan and Xiaoya.” Ruan Xiaoqing said while looking at the back of Yuan Zhou and Yin ya.
“I think it’ll be soon. Compass doesn’t talk much, but he’s quite a man of action.” Ling Hong said.
“Yes, Xiaoya will definitely be very happy.” Ruan Xiaoqing said.
“You will too.” “We’ll come back after compass gets married,”Ling Hong tilted his head and continued.
“Alright,” he said. Ruan Xiaoqing replied softly.
On the other side, Yuan Zhou held Yin ya’s hand and walked towards the parking lot. When they walked to Yin ya’s car, Yuan Zhou suddenly said,””I can do it too.”
“What?” Yin ya revealed a dumbfounded look.
“I can also book a plane to take you on a honeymoon.” Yuan Zhou looked at Yin ya earnestly and said.
“Teng.” As soon as Yin ya heard the word “honeymoon,” her face turned red at once.
“What are you talking about? I’m not envious. I don’t need to book a plane. I can just go like this.” Yin ya said with a flustered tone.
After saying that, Yin ya felt a little upset. It seemed that she had already agreed to the proposal, but she obviously didn’t want to say it so impatiently.
“I’m done for. I can go even if I don’t book the plane. Will blockhead think that I’m in a hurry to marry him?” Yin ya couldn’t help but hold the handle tightly, not knowing how to remedy the situation.
Just when Yin ya was hesitating, Yuan Zhou spoke again.
“It’s fine, I have enough money. ” “I’ve saved a lot of money. It’s definitely enough,”Yuan Zhou said.
“...” Yin ya felt both helpless and funny in her heart. At the same time, she felt that the title of “blockhead” of Yuan Zhou was indeed true to its name. She had been struggling for a long time in vain.
“I know you have a lot of money. Go back quickly, I’ll give you a ride.” Yin ya opened the car door and said unhappily.
“Yes, sure.” Yuan Zhou sensitively felt that Yin ya seemed to be a little unhappy, but he didn’t quite understand what she meant. He just got into the car quickly and sat down according to Yin ya’s instructions. Then, he fastened the seat belt and appeared to be very obedient.
“Let’s go,” Yin ya started the car and left the garage. Then, she drove to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant slowly.
While Yuan Zhou was on his way back, Japan on the other side was very lively.
It was because the recent Japan cooking circle was like a Festival. After all, dashi xiujie didn’t disappoint the public and won the first place in the young chef exchange meeting.
Immediately after, Fujiwara Jiayuan, the chairman of the Japan chefs ‘Alliance branch, personally wrote a praise and published it in the Asahi News.
The title was “the most likely person to open up the path of Japan cuisine,””Chi Chi,””dashi xiujie.”
Looking at this title, one could imagine how much tengyuan Jiayuan valued dashi xiujie.
However, taking a step back, there were so many Japan chefs in their 30s who came to the Sino-Japan Exchange meeting, but now they were all left far behind by dashi xiujie. It was not wrong to say so.
“After hundreds of years of development, we are mainly divided into: “Local cuisine, table cuisine, University cuisine, Kaishi cuisine, refined cuisine, and so on. There are mainly three categories, namely banquet, Kaishi cuisine, and local cuisine. There are fine and detailed ones. As the chairman of the Japan famous chefs Alliance branch, I have always wanted to explore the cuisines of our Thousand Islands country again. There has been progress but it has not met my expectations, so I am very distressed.
Until a few days ago, I was invited to be the judge of the young chefs ‘exchange meeting. This event was founded by the Imperial Grandmaster Yuan Zhou. In the finals, dashi xiujie’s improved version of Fukuoka chicken hotpot won first place with a score of 26.8. When I looked at dashi xiujie, I thought it through. In fact, the younger generation already has their own ideas about many things, that is, the future of our food belongs to them. ”
Next, Fujiwara Jiayuan described some of dashi xiujie’s resume. Dashi xiujie had established a food and beverage brand and had seven branches. He was indeed a capable person.
Finally, tengyuan Jiayuan concluded at the end of the article,”
“Dashi is very similar to Yuan Zhou, the Grandmaster of the Empire. First of all, dashi and Lord Yuan are both very persistent people. They run in the morning every day. Dashi has also learned many of Lord Yuan’s excellent qualities, such as processing the ingredients himself, doing everything by himself, and being 100% serious about food. Now that dashi is about to be guided by Lord Yuan, I believe even more that dashi will have a bright future. He will be the little Yuan Zhou of our thousand-island country!”
In fact, it was really hard to understand. The Asahi News was also a relatively serious international newspaper, but it could naturally report the Chuunibyou title of the Empire’s Grandmaster.
With the endorsement of Fujiwara Jiayuan, dashi xiujie’s status in the Japan cooking circle had improved a lot. Moreover, the title of “little Yuan Zhou of the thousand-island nation” was also quoted and approved by other reports.
There were also reports that dashi xiujie would change from “little Yuan Zhou of Japan” to “Yuan Zhou of Japan” sooner or later.
The reason why he added the word “small” was that he was well aware that dashi xiujie was still far from Yuan Zhou.
The Japan reports basically ignored Kosen, who had won the award together with them. However, the domestic reports did not ignore him, especially in Guizhou. They were definitely reporting on him without restraint.
“Renowned chef of Guizhou, Kosen, standing out from the world’s famous chefs” or “the birth of Yuan Zhou’s second apprentice”.
It was said that master Cheng was so angry when he saw the report that he almost tore down the newspaper office.
When Kosen returned home, his father, who had always been serious to him, was also smiling.
“Not bad, you didn’t let me down.” Colin said,”actually, when I said that I would eat a metal pot if I lost, that was also to stimulate your motivation. You are my son. If I really lost, I wouldn’t let you eat a metal pot.”
“Is that so?” Kosen did not believe this at all. After all, who knew who the Father was?
Of course, there were also other countries that failed to make the cut, such as Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, and so on. They pretended as if nothing had happened. After all, in the circle, people still cared about their pride.
It could be said that the young chefs ‘exchange meet had officially come to an end.
