Chapter 657: 657




Not long after lunch ended, Yuan Zhou's phone rang .

The caller ID was Sun Ming, a brother Yuan Zhou hadn't seen for a while .

"Why are you so free to give me a call?" Yuan Zhou directly asked after answering the phone .

"It's the Chinese New Year soon, so I'm calling to see how you're doing," Sun Ming said, his voice through the phone being cut off somewhat .

"No, I don't believe that . You're a hoes over bros kind of guy," Yuan Zhou immediately tore Sun Ming's lie apart .

That's right . The only reason Sun Ming hadn't looked for Yuan Zhou was that he had gotten to know a new goddess, someone he was furiously courting .

He had no time to visit Yuan Zhou's restaurant . He also had no time to meet up with his brothers . It had been quite a while since he had eaten the delicacies he loved .

Therefore, Yuan Zhou was correct when he said that he was a hoes over bros kind of guy .

"That's not true at all . Aren't I calling you right now?" Sun Ming solemnly said, promptly explaining himself .

"You must have called because your courting failed," Yuan Zhou remarked in a straightforward manner .

Facing a brother that places priority on girls over bros, Yuan Zhou spared no effort in berating him .

"You're wrong . I already successfully asked her out for a meal," Sun Ming solemnly stated .

When he spoke, the joy and sweetness in his voice couldn't be disguised .



"One meal after one month? For your standards, that is quite a decent performance," Yuan Zhou said, disdain seeping out of his every word .

"Still better than a forever-alone like you," Sun Ming countered, not willing to be outdone .

"Hoho," Yuan Zhou sneered, his contempt so deep he couldn't even be bothered to reply .

"Ok, enough small talk . Let's get onto business," Sun Ming knew when to stop . Therefore, he prepared to move onto proper business .

"Yeah, sure . Let's stop talking . I'm hanging up," Yuan Zhou said and made it seemed like he was about to hang up the phone .

"No, no, no . Yuan Zhou, don't end the call . No matter what, we're still brothers . I have something I need your help with," Sun Ming knew when to lower himself and immediately started begging for help instead .

"Beg me," Yuan Zhou said, his voice nonchalant .

"Yeah, I beg you . Please help," Sun Ming unknowingly nodded as he spoke, making it clear that he was begging .

After Sun Ming begged, Yuan Zhou did not reply immediately . After all, Yuan Zhou was still a forever-alone guy . Moreover, he was a forever-alone guy that held a grudge . Therefore, he wouldn't let go of a chance to keep Sun Ming waiting .

"Speak . What help do you need," Yuan Zhou remained silent for five seconds before answering .

"You see, I asked the goddess out to eat at your place . Since I had promised her I will personally cook a dish for her, can you…" Sun Ming quickly made his request known .


Unfortunately, before he could finish his sentence, he was ruthlessly cut off by Yuan Zhou .

"No," Yuan Zhou left no room for negotiation .



"But I hadn't even told you what I need," Sun Ming choked somewhat on his words before saying this .

"You want to borrow the kitchen . Have you ever seen Simon the Snow Blower borrowing his sword to Lu Xiaofeng?" Yuan Zhou rejected in a straightforward manner since it did not take him long to figure out what Sun Ming wanted .

"Nope," Sun Ming answered truthfully .

"Right, that's why my answer is no," Yuan Zhou righteously said .

Sun Ming wasn't discouraged by Yuan Zhou's answer . He directly changed his request instead . The speed in which he changed his request made one wonder if this had been what he wanted all along .

"Yes . " This time, Yuan Zhou generously agreed .

"Excellent . After I confirm a time with my goddess, I will bring her over," Sun Ming happily said .

"Ok . " Once again, Yuan Zhou turned back into his indifferent self .

"Don't be like that . When I successfully make her my girlfriend, I will get her to introduce some girls to you as well . After all, the friends of a goddess will definitely be goddesses as well . " Sun Ming sounded rather creepy when he said that, but his tone was sincere .

"No thanks . I don't need that kind of help," Yuan Zhou said, his tone resolute .

'After all, with my perfect look and godly cooking skills, I will definitely be well-liked by girls . I do not need a blind date to help me,' thought Yuan Zhou confidently .

"You'll see then . My goddess is incredibly pretty," Sun Ming said in a mysterious manner, not minding Yuan Zhou's rejection .

Later," this was Yuan Zhou's answer .

Then, he directly hung up the call .

"This guy," Sun Ming muttered as he stared at his phone . Then, he put his phone down as well .

"It's still not time to rest . I need to practice cooking that dish," Sun Ming said to himself and rushed into his kitchen .

As for Yuan Zhou, this call changed nothing much for him . As usual, he practiced his knife and carving skills at noon . And when the time came, he prepared the ingredients required for dinner .

The customers of Yuan Zhou's restaurant would always arrive early to wait for their food . Even Lee Yanyi was no exception to this .

In the past, Yan Jia would drop Lee Yanyi off at the street intersection . Lee Yanyi would then silently walk his way to the restaurant . This time, something seemed different . When he was still far away, the vigorous voice of a man could be heard speaking .

"Is this the restaurant of that Boss Yuan? Why is the restaurant opened at such a secluded place?" Xing Min -- Lee Yanyi's mortal enemy during the ingredient exchange -- was the one who spoke .

The two old men were known for always bickering with each other . However, they had a similar fashion sense . Both of them were wearing gray woolen suits, making them look traditional and upright, with their hair meticulously and neatly combed .

The difference between them was the flushed face Xing Min had while Lee Yanyi appeared much more indifferent . After all, Xing Min was somewhat fat .

He wasn't as picky with his food as Lee Yanyi was .

"This is an example of a fragrant wine that fears no dark alley . You are the one that wanted to come . If you're unhappy, feel free to leave . It's not like I enjoy bringing you here," Lee Yanyi glanced at Xing Min and said .

"I'm already here . Of course I need to go take a look . I didn't get the chance to eat much previously," Xing Min righteously stated .

"Pfft, taking the high ground even when you're only here because you're a glutton," Lee Yanyi continued speaking in a ruthlessly direct fashion .

"Better than you who is a glutton every single day . " Once again, Xing Min became infuriated .

"No . I am merely practicing my judgment and sense of taste," Lee Yanyi righteously said .

"Heh," Xing Min snorted .

Just like that, the two bickered without stop until they reached the restaurant . The number of people here did not surprise Xing Min .

After all, the food Yuan Zhou made during the ingredient exchange and the excellent cooking skills he had demonstrated warranted him such popularity .

Fortunately, Lee Yanyi was a glutton that was a frequent visitor to this restaurant . Therefore, they had arrived quite early . When the restaurant opened, the two of them were part of the first batch of customers to get seated .

"Grandpa Lee and this other grandpa, what do you want to eat?" Mu Xiaoyun obediently walked up to them and asked .

"I only need to know what's your boss's signature dish," Xing Min directly said .

"Look at the menu yourself . His entire menu is filled with his signature dishes . Anything Yuan Zhou cooks will turn into his specialty," Lee Yanyi immediately replied and gave Xing Min a look of disdain, speaking with an air of wisdom .

"Yeah . The dishes on the menu are all highly praised by our customers . All of them are our signature dishes," Mu Xiaoyun said naturally .

"You don't understand . Any chef will have their very own signature dish," Xing Min said, disapproval deep on his face .

"You think that because you are ignorant . Just order anything you want from the menu . " It seemed like the contempt was about to seep out of Lee Yanyi's face .

After all, he had personally tasted all the dishes on the menu here . Each of them were of the best quality, reaching the pinnacle of what the ingredients could reach .

Xing Min ignored Li Yan . Facing Yuan Zhou, he directly asked .

"Boss Yuan, what is your signature dish?" Xing Min solemnly asked .

Simon the Snow Blower and Lu Xiaofeng are characters in Gu Long's wuxia novel Legend of Lu Xiaofeng .
