Protagonist:

Lu Feng

The two were talking when Zhou Zhengbang hung up the phone and walked over.

Zhang Xianyang hurried forward, his face full of excitement, and recounted what had just happened once more.

"Xiao Zhang, you did well."

Zhou Zhengbang smiled and patted Zhang Xianyang on the shoulder, then turned to look at Sun Rongguang: "Sun Lao, the dean just called me; there's an emergency meeting, and I need you to come back with me."

After hearing this, Sun Rongguang nodded and followed Zhou Zhengbang to leave.

"Director Zhou, Sun Lao, you're going back?"

Seeing the two were about to leave, Zhang Xianyang hurriedly shouted: "Then... are we still switching seats?"

"Switch! Xiao Zhang, go queue up; after buying the Red Braised Pork, take it straight to the hospital's Conference Room and ask Boss for an extra pair of chopsticks."

Zhou Zhengbang tossed that sentence back at Zhang Xianyang, then hurriedly left with Sun Rongguang.

"Ah?"

The excitement that had just risen in Zhang Xianyang's heart instantly cooled by half.

He had spent a great deal of effort just now and finally managed to secure a front-row spot for Sun Lao.

As a result, he still had to buy the Red Braised Pork himself?

Then what about my Dinner?

Watching the two's departing figures, Zhang Xianyang wanted to cry but had no tears.

…………

Just as Hu Xiaoyun walked into the Shop, the tempting Aroma filling the air made her involuntarily inhale deeply several times.

This smell is too fragrant, isn't it?

She had clearly already eaten Dinner at School, but the moment she smelled this Fragrance, her Du Chong actually felt a bit hungry again.

Hu Xiaoyun hurriedly put down the things in her hand, quickly walked to the Kitchen Door, and cheerfully greeted Lu Feng, who was Kneading Dough: "Boss, I'm here!"

"So early?"

Lu Feng raised his head and smiled, his Kneading Dough movement not stopping: "Didn't I tell you this morning that this week we open at nine?"

"There's nothing to do staying in the Dormitory, so I came to see if I can help with anything."

Hu Xiaoyun said with her mouth, but her eyes were fixed on the pot on the stove that was steaming with Heat: "Boss, this Fragrance today is so fragrant! Is it a New Dish?"

Looking at her appearance of constantly swallowing saliva, Lu Feng couldn't help but be amused: "Yes, this week's first New Dish is Red Braised Pork; if you're hungry, I'll get you two pieces to Taste later."

"No, no, I've already eaten at School."

Although Hu Xiaoyun was a bit tempted by the flavor of Red Braised Pork, she still refused with a sense of propriety, then asked: "Boss, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'm enough for the Kitchen; you go rest in the Hall for a while."

Lu Feng thought for a moment, then pointed to the Garbage Bin in the corner of the Kitchen: "By the way, help me take the trash out and throw it away."

"Okay, Boss."

Hu Xiaoyun responded cheerfully, walked over, and picked up the Garbage Bin.

Just as she was about to walk out, she noticed a glint of gold inside the Garbage Bin, shining brightly under the light.

Hu Xiaoyun stopped, reached in, and pinched out a golden business card.

This business card looked twice as thick as an ID card and had some weight in her hand; the front was printed with the two large characters "Qian Zhuang," and below was the title "Chairman of Yangcheng Qian Shi Group."

Hu Xiaoyun looked at the business card over and over, then couldn't help but turn around and shout at Lu Feng: "Boss, there's a business card in the Garbage Bin, it looks so exquisite; should this be thrown away too?"

Lu Feng glanced up and said casually: "Mm, keeping it is useless; throw it away."

He also recognized that business card he had casually thrown into the Garbage Bin; it was given to him by Qian Laoban last week when Qian Laoban tried to poach him.

Lu Feng had also seen a business card made so exquisitely for the first time; at a glance, it was a high-end custom-made item.

Things belonging to rich people indeed look a bit different from ordinary ones.

However, since he had already refused Qian Laoban's invitation, keeping this business card indeed had no use.

No matter how exquisite the business card is, what does it matter?

It's not made of gold.

…………

Time passed slowly, and finally it was nine o'clock in the evening.

"Sorry for the wait, everyone; business hours have arrived today. Please don't rush and order in sequence!"

With Hu Xiaoyun's shout, the diners who had been standing outside for over an hour, originally somewhat tired, instantly perked up, and the queue immediately began to stir.

"Finally waiting for the doors to open!"

Many people in the queue couldn't help but exclaim; after smelling the Fragrance for over an hour, their Du Chong had been growling nonstop, and now they could finally eat.

The diners walked into the Shop with long-awaited steps, impatiently.

Although the scene was a bit chaotic now, no one took the opportunity to Cut in Line.

After finally waiting for the store to open, no one wanted to be kicked out of the queue by the diners who shared the same hatred because of Cutting in Line at this time.

Just as the diners walked into the Shop, their gazes unanimously turned to the Price List on the wall.

The newly added Red Braised Pork was especially eye-catching on the wall, with two lines of small text next to it: six portions, price 108 yuan.

"Boss Lu's price is quite conscientious!"

Zhang Xianyang in the queue looked at the price of Red Braised Pork and couldn't help but Praise it.

He remembered those upscale Fan Dian in the city center—a portion of Red Braised Pork cost over two hundred there, yet the taste couldn't compare to Lu Feng's place.

"Yeah, the Sichuan Cuisine restaurant downstairs from my place sells a portion cheap, just a few dozen, but it's really too greasy!"

The diner standing behind Zhang Xianyang nodded in agreement and immediately chimed in.

Everyone knew the score—Lu Feng's culinary skill had never disappointed them.

They hadn't tasted this Red Braised Pork yet, but just the rich fragrance alone smelled far superior to other places.

A portion of six pieces wasn't much, but it sold for 108.

Compared to roadside Xiao Dian or upscale Fan Dian, it was a great deal.

The only downside was that only twenty portions were sold today, leaving the diners behind feeling terribly regretful.

Some diners in the back rows had already set Alarm Clocks on their Mobile Phones, apparently planning to come early tomorrow.

Hu Xiaoyun stood behind the Counter, smiling broadly as she welcomed tonight's diners.

"Boss, one portion of Red Braised Pork!"

"I want one portion of Red Braised Pork too!"

"This flavor... smells so fragrant it's deadly, I know the taste definitely won't be bad even before eating! I'll have one too!"

Ordering voices rose and fell one after another; Hu Xiaoyun answered with her mouth while her fingers flew over the computer to place orders.

In the Kitchen, Lu Feng turned off the stove fire, then lifted the pot lid.

The moment the pot lid was lifted, white Heat wrapped in rich fragrance rushed out from the Kitchen.

The originally lively Hall fell silent for a few seconds.

Everyone's gaze passed through the kitchen's transparent glass, staring fixedly at that One Pot of steaming Red Braised Pork.

The Red Braised Pork had stewed for over an hour; every piece had absorbed the Braised Sauce, with a translucent jujube-red color coating the meat chunks.

Thick Braised Sauce soaked the meat chunks, a layer of bright glistening oil floating on the surface, still bubbling under the pot's residual heat, causing the meat chunks to tremble slightly along with it.

Every piece of meat looked quivering; just looking at them made one imagine their melt-in-the-mouth Texture.

The diners craned their necks one by one, eyes fixed straight on the Red Braised Pork in the Kitchen, saliva constantly swallowed in their Mouths.

"This Red Braised Pork looks really good."

Qin Ye put away the folding fan in his hand and began to anticipate the taste of Red Braised Pork entering his Mouth.

He shifted slightly, watching the diners ahead who were queuing to Ordering, and silently counted in his heart.

Good, he happened to be in the twentieth position; his Luck today wasn't bad.

"Old Qin, how about discussing something with you?"

Xu Shao Ying behind Qin Ye came over and patted his shoulder; his usually stern face now carried a few ingratiating smiles.

"Heh, no deal!"

Qin Ye didn't look back and refused without mercy.
