“I can make it . ” Hearing so many discussions about himself, Wu Hong blushed and said loudly .

Once Wu Hong said that, the restaurant instantly fell silent for quite a while . After that, a customer uttered .

“Young man, it’s not we don’t have faith in you . Boss Yuan is just too . . . You will understand . ” The customer shook his head and said .

“Yes, he’s right . Boss Yuan is nice in every aspect, but just too . . . ” Another customer said right after that .

“Exactly . Everyone that often comes for meals knows Boss Yuan has god-tier culinary skills . But he’s just like that . ” A girl likewise couldn’t help saying .

“Too what?” Seeing the customers all reveal an expression of “You will understand”, Wu Hong became totally muddled . He didn’t know what these customers were talking about .

“He sticks to his own rules strictly . ” The customers said with one accord .

“It’s good to stick to rules . ” Wu Hong was quite puzzled about that, but he still said that .

“Oh, yeah, absolutely . It’s good to stick to rules . However, others at least know to compromise in special circumstances . Here in Boss Yuan’s restaurant, never . Don’t ever think about it . He doesn’t compromise at all,” said Gu Li’an who initiated the betting game .

“I heard from others that even Boss Yuan’s brother has to line up when he comes to eat,” said a customer who had seen Sun Ming before .

“Remember a star also came here once last time? She enjoyed the same treatment as others . ” A customer suddenly remembered that star .

“Yes . So you won’t be different from others . Boss Yuan won’t take you as his disciple, either . ” Gu Li’an shrugged and said positively .

“Not necessarily . ” Wu Hong clenched his fists and was still reluctant to give up .

What a joke! If he gave up now, what had he stood there for three hours for? Wu Hong felt he could still persist for a while longer .

Sometimes, people were unwilling to give up just because he had invested too much previously and didn’t want to waste the previous efforts . Therefore, Wu Hong became more resolute now although he wasn’t really so resolute before .

“Boss Yuan, Boss Yuan, is a new dish? New dish?” As soon as Ma Zhida entered the restaurant, he asked about the new dish .

After all, he was a man that called himself The Little Prince of New Dishes .

“Mr . Ma, I’m sorry . But we don’t have any new dish available recently . ” Zhou Jia straightforwardly went up and answered him .

“I don’t mean to blame you, Boss Yuan . But you have become lazy and degenerated . ” Ma Zhida covered his chest with one hand and revealed a look of heartache and headache .

“Mr . Ma, you are still as humorous as before . ” Zhou Jia smiled cooperatively .

Every time Ma Zhida did so, Zhou Jia and Shen Min basically cooperated with him . Those who often talked sarcastically against him were naturally Wu Hai and some other people .

“Oh, what damn humor! He’s just pretending to be childish . ” Wu Hai snorted .

“Scary . I just want to eat a new dish . ” Ma Zhida revealed an innocent expression .

“Please sit down and eat . ” Customers lining up behind started to urge them one after another .

What a joke! This concerns on whether or not they could eat the delicacies earlier .

“Yeah, yeah, I got it . I’ll order right away . One serving of Egg Fried Rice, please . ” Ma Zhida turned his head and begged for mercy . Only then did he tell Zhou Jia .

“Ok . One moment, please . ” Zhou Jia checked the phone and confirmed the money before nodding her head smilingly .

“Please do tell me what you want to order today?” After she received Ma Zhida, Zhou Jia diverted her attention to a young man seated at the side .

“One serving of Egg Fried Rice . ” This person also ordered the most frequently ordered dish, the Egg Fried Rice .

“Ok . The price is 188 RMB in all . ” Zhou Jia brought out the price smilingly .

“Pay before eating?” This person seemed to be new here . Stared by Zhou Jia, he was puzzled at first and only then reacted .

“Yes . It’s one of our rules . ” Zhou Jia nodded her head .

“Ok . Wait a second . ” The young man had quite slender and white fingers . He reached out his hand and searched in the pockets of his black wind coat .

After his hand reached in the pockets, however, the expression on the face of the young man slightly changed and that lasted quite a while . Fortunately, Zhou Jia wasn’t in a hurry .

“Jia Jia, one serving of beef here . ” The customer beside her shouted voluntarily .

The hands of the young man in front of Zhou Jia were still in the pockets and didn’t come out .

The pockets of the coat were not big, but the man acted as if he had put his hands in the treasure pocket . Until now, he still didn’t intend to take them out .

Nevertheless, his expression became weirder and weirder . There was a little sweat on his flushed face .

“Sir, I’ll go there first to take their orders . ” Zhou Jia said gently, not intending to urge him .

“Ok . Go ahead . ” The young man nodded his head earnestly with his hands still in the pockets .

“Alright . ” Zhou Jia nodded her head and then left .

Once Zhou Jia left, the young man became relieved immediately .

“Bro, it’s the first time I have seen you in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, but I think you need this . ” Just when the young man was searching in his pockets hurriedly, Ma Zhida suddenly said that .

There had appeared two brand-new notes of 100 RMB before the young man answered .

The two notes were completely new and same as other new notes which had bright colors and a clear texture . The hand that held the money was also very beautiful . At least, the young man believed so .

“Thank you . ” The young man took the money and said courteously without hesitation .

“Not at all . Remember to give it back to me when you finish . If you want to express your gratitude, you can treat me to a meal in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant . ” Ma Zhida said in a joking tone .

“No, don’t think about that . It’s too expensive to eat there . ” The young man also joked with him .

Having finished taking orders and returned, Zhou Jia found the two people were chatting with each other like others and there wasn’t anything special .

The young man likewise paid the money for the Egg Fried Rice naturally and waited there to eat later .

“Boss Yuan, did you tell Zhou Jia to send water to that guy?” After Ling Hong finished the meal, he stood up, came to the other side and asked curiously .

“Um . ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head .

“Tsk-tsk . You changed your mind?” Ling Hong asked with interest .

“No . ” Yuan Zhou treasured his words very much . After all, Ling Hong had deceived him for quite a few times .

With the thought of saying as little as possible to Ling Hong, Yuan Zhou answered earnestly .

“He looks quite enthusiastic . ” Ling Hong shrugged .

“Enthusiasm of the young . ” The implied meaning of Yuan Zhou was that Wu Hong wouldn’t stay here for long .

“But he has stood there for more than three hours . ” Ling Hong burst into laughter .

“That’s why I sent water to him . ” Yuan Zhou looked at Ling Hong and said earnestly to him .

“Then why did you give him the Yibao bottled water and even pour it into the bowl?” Ling Hong wanted to know this most .

“Yes, why? The water we are drinking is good . ” Man Man loved the cup of mineral water provided along with the dishes in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant very much and hence asked curiously .

“Because he’s not my customer . ” Yuan Zhou answered deservedly .

“And also because one cannot simply throw trash outside . ” Yuan Zhou liked speaking in two parts .

Others spoke in one complete part while Yuan Zhou talked with short parts . Luckily, the customers were used to that .

“Master Yuan, will you take him as your disciple?” It was Master Cheng who asked about this .

“No . ” Yuan Zhou’s answer was still unchanged .

Hearing that, Master Cheng wasn’t clear whether or not to be relieved .
