Chapter 469: Appearing and Disappearing Mysteriously

Translator: Xiong_Guoqi Editor: DesTheSloth

After dinner time ended, Yuan Zhou looked at the entrance of this small restaurant and got lost in his thoughts .

“I never expected this guy to return home so soon . Why didn’t I get a notification from Chairman Zhou?” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself .

“Luckily, I have almost levelled-up . ” Yuan Zhou tapped the mission open again and checked it .

Yuan Zhou was only thinking about the fact that there weren’t many dishes suitable for a banquet, unlike the western cuisines that had separate dishes like appetizer, main course, and dessert . Therefore, Yuan Zhou was still slightly worried .

Fortunately, he had a complete set of western food etiquette available .

The area where Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was seated was originally a high-technology zone of this city, where many tall buildings were scattered around . However, the supporting business circle was still in construction, so it inevitably appeared a little desolate .

Not to mention there was even an old residential area around Yuan Zhou’s restaurant which made it seem old .

Since there was nothing worth visiting around there, the visitors were naturally less than average . It was the fast food restaurant further down the business street that had the most customers and provided meals for people working around . Since Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was publicized throughout the city, however, the stores here became valuable . Many stores that provided foods, accessories enjoyed by girls, and services of drinking tea and chatting for men had been appearing .

Working in a foreign-funded enterprise right now, Ma Zhida was a little worried .

“I haven’t eaten Boss Yuan’s dishes for quite a few days . How long shall we accompany that UAE prince?” Ma Zhida poked his colleague at the side and asked .

“As a single man, you just need to feed yourself and can at least go there for meals every few days . I haven’t been there for almost two months . ” His colleague rolled his eyes to Ma Zhida and didn’t intend to answer the last question .

“Is this the main point? I’m asking you when this wealthy manager will leave . ” Ma Zhidao asked earnestly .

“I don’t know . We are the only males in the Public Relations Department . ” His colleague shrugged and appeared helpless .

That’s right . Ma Zhida and this colleague were the only males in the Public Relations Department . According to their general manager, they were merely the green leaves in contrast with the females in the department . In spite of that, they still couldn’t leave when there was work .

Recently, the parent company of the partner of their company sent a manager, an authentic Emiratis, here to inspect the business . Therefore, all staff working in the Public Relations Department accompanied him in turns .

Actually, he wasn’t the legendary prince . The UAE Prince was only a joking appellation of the manager .

“Silika, you speak Chinese so fluently . What do you want to eat today?” The director of the Public Relations Department, a beauty with a beautiful body, was accompanying a man who was dressed in a business suit and had neat whiskers along with another middle-aged man .

The person that asked just now was naturally the director of the Public Relation Department, too . After all, only by asking this way could the beautiful women reveal their charm .

“I am sick of eating your dishes these few days and want to eat something from our nation today . ” Silika, the moneybags from UAE, said with a frown .

“I know a restaurant called Desert that serves dishes of UAE . Do you want to go and have a try?” The director said smilingly .

“No, no . There’s no authentic UAE dish around here . ” Silika refused immediately .

Instantly, he remembered the roast meat he had eaten yesterday . It was said to be the authentic UAE taste, but actually tasted very bad .

“Then do you want to try the specialty dish here?” The beautiful director still suggested with a smile .

The manager beside her was only responsible for nodding his head .

“I know your Chinese dishes are delicious, but I just don’t like that kind of taste . ” Silika shrugged and appeared quite helpless .

Once he said that, the several other people didn’t know how to answer him . It was nevertheless Silika himself that started to talk .

“Sigh . It would be great even if it was only a pilaf . ” Silika signed and then said .

“Do you want to eat rice?” Ma Zhida suddenly asked him .

“Yeah . Rice, the white rice . ” Silika said affirmatively .

“Do Emiratis also eat white rice?” Although Ma Zhida said with a very low voice, he was still heard by others .

“Of course . Different from the white rice produced here, the rice produced in our country is especially delicious when used to cook the pilaf . ” Silika said proudly .

“Can you eat it without meat?” Ma Zhida had a sudden inspiration and asked that .

“Of course, I can . ” Silika nodded his head .

“If you can eat pilaf without meat, I think there’s a place that can absolutely serve you food that satisfies your UAE taste buds . ” Ma Zhida said positively .

“Are you sure?” This time, Silika directly said that in English .

“Yes, absolutely . ” Ma Zhida answered confidently .

“Then let’s eat it tonight . ” Silika said happily .

Silika trusted Ma Zhida because he clearly understood the habits of the Chinese . Even if they were 100% sure, they only said 90% to others . Since Ma Zhida said that so affirmatively, his confidence had definitely surpassed 200% .

“Little Ma, are you sure?” The manager asked him for confirmation .

“I trust Little Ma . ” The director at the side looked at Ma Zhida earnestly and then nodded his head .

“Is it that place?” It was rare for Ma Zhida’s colleague to understand his thoughts . They all thought of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant at the same time .

“You are right . ” Ma Zhida nodded his head affirmatively .

“Okay . Little Ma, you lead the way . But you stay in the company . ” The manager said that while pointing at that colleague .

“Well, okay . Bye, manager . Bye Manager Silika . ” The colleague complained about the stingy manager inwardly and said goodbye to them, yet a smile on his face .

The several people all nodded and then the colleague left .

At that time, the manager said sensibly, “Silika, I don’t think you’ll feel comfortable if I eat together with you . So what about they take you there to eat?”

“Of course . Then thank you, beauty and this gentleman who is leading the way for us . ” Silika nodded his head with a delighted expression .

“I hope you can eat the dish you want . ” The manager answered him smilingly .

“I will . ” Silika nodded his head .

The manager had some knowledge of the habits of the Emiratis . They didn’t like negotiating business while having meals . He had been accompanying the client for the last two days and thus, the atmosphere wasn’t that active during the meals . Therefore, the manager made his exit sensibly and gave the initiative to the young .

Besides, the director of the Public Relations Department was present, so he wasn’t worried at all .

“Manager Silika, please follow me . That small restaurant isn’t far from here . It is no more than 10 minutes on foot . If we drive, however, we have to look for a parking spot over there . ” Ma Zhida said smilingly .

“Then let’s just walk over there . ” Silika accepted the good advice and said that .

“Follow me . ” Ma Zhida led the way ahead of them with a cordial smile .

Behind him, the beautiful director and Silika were chatting freely and occasionally introducing some favorable information about her company .

The three of them all headed for Yuan Zhou’s restaurant . Meanwhile, a good play happened to be on at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant .

Because Chu Xiao appeared again .

The cause was that two customers were discussing why Yuan Zhou could cook the Sautéed Vermicelli with Spicy Minced Pork so well .

“Boss Yuan’s craftsmanship is way too good . Having been picked with the chopsticks, it really looks like the ants climbing up on the tree . The Chinese vermicelli is chewy while the minced pork is elastic . ” A customer gulped down a mouthful of vermicelli with satisfaction .

“The most wonderful thing is that the Chinese vermicelli has absorbed abundant gravy and tastes super satisfying . ” The two people started to praise the dish one after another .

“If only I can cook this dish! I won’t be sick of eating that all day long . ” The customer said with a delighted look .

“Don’t even think about it in your lifetime . Even if you have the talent for being a chef, you’ll need no less than three years to make it as delicious as this one . “Chu Xiao’s arrogant voice appeared again .

He was always appearing and disappearing mysteriously . . .
