Chapter 307: Upcoming BBQ Feast

Translator: Xiong Guoqi Editor: DesTheSloth

"How could it be 12 hours?" Manager Shi went up and uttered solemnly .

"Why did you also come here? Boss Yuan isn’t here today . " Wu Hai knew Manager Shi . After all, there weren’t many customers who came a few times a week .

"Um . I only sleep five hours everyday . Boss Yuan is more diligent than me, so 6 hours are enough for him to rest . " Manager Shi first nodded to Wu Hai and then said primly .

Once he said that, however, the crowd was lost in the silence .

Even Wu Hai couldn’t help saying, "You have worked so hard, what are we working so hard for? This is not a proposal, but a toxic chicken soup for the soul . "

After that, other customers lost even the desire to ridicule any of them .

One was a manager of an electronic company, who came to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for meals at least three times per week and occasionally left a clove of garlic uneaten .

The other was the well-known young artist, who took Yuan Zhou’s restaurant as his personal canteen .

Are the two of them sure that they were not showing off? The crowd got speechless for quite a while .

"I feel we ought to think what the compensated BBQ at night is . " After a considerable while, a customer changed the subject .

"That’s a good idea . What exactly is the BBQ?" The customers looked toward Wu Hai of one accord .

Some regular customers all knew that Wu Hai had once studied cooking from Yuan Zhou .

"Wu Hai, Do you know what it is?" Manager Shi directly asked him .

"How do I know? I didn’t even know that he isn’t here today . " Wu Hai was rather helpless .

"How could you not know? You live so close to him . " Manager Shi said unreservedly .

"It’s none of your business . " Wu Hai was originally unhappy for that he didn’t manage to have the meal . Now that he was insulted to his face, he surely wouldn’t restrain himself .

Of course, he wouldn’t restrain himself, either, even if he wasn’t in a bad mood .

"Tsk . What a bad temper! But I believe it’s a new dish . " Manager Shi gave the cold shoulder to Wu Hai .

"I’m going to leave and come back at night to see what it is . But I think it’s supposed to be a new dish . " A customer echoed .

"Superfluous words . Never eating it before, never hearing of it before and never seeing it before . Of course it’s a new dish . " Wu Hai crossed his arms against the chest and said deservedly .

"Wait . So there will be no liquor tonight?" The manager suddenly recalled something and asked with a caring tone .

"Surely not," Wu Hai gloated and said .

He didn’t manage to get the liquor from a lucky draw today . Therefore, he was so joyful when he saw those lucky guys unable to drink liquor, either .

"Take it easy . I didn’t get the red ball, either . " Manager Shi said smilingly .

"Then what are you excited for?" Wu Hai revealed a speechless manner .

Other customers who watched the scene all along indicated that the two people were way too naive . Of course, they also cared about the matter .

"As far as I know, Boss Yuan has never eaten his words before . But in this leave request, he mentioned nothing about drinking liquor . What will he do?" Pointing at the leave request, the customer analyzed it word by word and then said .

"You think too much . I believe that Boss Yuan already has a solution . " This is a customer who trusted Boss Yuan .

"Alright . Let’s leave . I don’t see anybody inside . " Wu Hai waved his hand and left first .

"Let’s go . " Manger Shi also turned the head and said to his secretary who stood behind him and said nothing .

"Ok, Manager Shi . The car is at the crossing now . Are we coming over here tonight?" Wearing the pointed high-heeled shoes, the secretary didn’t make any sound while walking . Obviously, she had been trained .

"Sure . " Manager Shi nodded the head deservedly .

"What about we coming around at 8 this evening?" It was the customer who was curious about the new dish but more curious about how Boss Yuan solve the pub problem .

"No problem . Let’s come together . " This proposal got the consent from most of the customers .

Being still in the car, Yuan Zhou nevertheless felt his ears itchy . He had already felt like someone was talking behind his back .

The night came late in summer . It was a nice day and he could even see some light at this time of day .

At 7:50, Shen Min arrived at the entrance of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and happened to meet Wu Hai and other customers who were waiting at the door .

"Everybody came to drink liquor?" Shen Min didn’t know who would come for liquor today . When she saw more than 10 people there, she was startled .

"Not really . Don’t you know that Boss Yuan isn’t here?" Wu Hai asked while pointing at the leave request . Speaking of Yuan Zhou, he even gnashed the teeth in anger .

"Yes, I know . Boss Yuan instructed me to come to open the door and greet the customers for liquor . He will come a little later . " Shen Min nodded the head obediently and then took out the key from her back pack .

"Ah, he turns out to have arranged it this way!" The customers instantly got speechless .

But when they thought it over, it indeed made sense . The pub indeed didn’t require Yuan Zhou to do anything now .

After a sound of "Zhi Ya", Shen Min pulled open the door . There was a rack for daily use in the main hall .

Namely the LED writing board that Yuan Zhou had used to write the discount info .

As soon as Shen Min got inside, she took out the LED board outside the door .

Then she plugged in the power lightly . The LED board started to emit colorful rays .

"Boss Yuan’s taste is still so unconventional . " The customers looked at the flamboyant LED board and said . They seemed not to be accustomed to it .

"Like always . " Wu Hai said helplessly .

When they saw the notification on the LED board, however, they became more speechless .

[Boss Yuan isn’t here this evening . So we provide only the bamboo liquor to those who have purchased it . " The signature was naturally Yuan Zhou .

"He talked as if he provided dishes during normal times," Wu Hai said discontentedly .

"Brother Wu, we provide Drunkard’s Peanuts during the normal times . " Shen Min said earnestly .

"I’m talking about hot dishes . " Wu Hai corrected her without a blush .

"I feel that Boss Yuan amuses people every time . " The customers looked at the notification and felt rather speechless .

"No . My boss said he would prepare the BBQ tonight to compensate you for not serving the dinner . " Shen Min explained hurriedly .

"I’m joking . " Seeing Shen Min’s anxious expression, the customer explained to her .

They trusted Yuan Zhou’s moral integrity .

However, the one that didn’t trust Yuan Zhou’s moral integrity at all was supposed to be the system .

Originally, after Yuan Zhou received the title of Senior BBQ Master, the following pitfall was naturally that he was required to set up a stall for BBQ . Contrarily, Yuan Zhou used it as a compensation for the customers .

Concerning such practice, the system really couldn’t say Yuan Zhou violated the rules . It could only watch him do it dumbly .

Luckily, there wasn’t much traffic on the way to Chengdu tonight . Therefore, Master Bai drove the two of them back in 40 minutes .

Of course, Jiang Changxi straightforwardly dropped Yuan Zhou at the crossing of the side street .

"Thank you," Yuan Zhou shut the car door and said lightly .

Seated in the car, Jiang Changxi spoke nothing and just waved her hand . After that, Master Bai drove away .

Yuan Zhou didn’t enter the restaurant from the front door . Instead, he entered from the back door .

Having washed up on the second floor, he came to the kitchen again and started to prepare the BBQ for the wee hours .

The several people who were drinking on the second floor of the pub nevertheless knew nothing about that .

"Hey, writer . Are you going to stay up and eat the BBQ tonight?" It was Meng Meng who hadn’t showed up recently .

"No, I won’t . I am prepared to write something while I’m tipsy after drinking . That feeling is marvelous . " It was the writer, namely the man who called himself a novelist .

"Whoops . Meng Meng, don’t get me into your broadcast when you make the live broadcast at night . " At the other side was Su Mu, who once followed Jiang Changxi here .

He didn’t come alone but with a young girl this time . Seated beside him quietly with a black cat in her arms, she only raised her head with a bashful manner when Su Mu talked .

"Why?" Meng Meng revealed a curious expression . There was a blush on her face due to the liquor, thus she appeared more adorable .

"I’m way too beautiful . If I appear in the shoot, I will draw all the attention . How will you continue the live broadcast then? Su Mu swallowed up a gulp of liquor and said naturally .

Meng Meng was lost in silence for quite a while . Luckily, the BBQ time was going to start . Who knows what would it be like .
