Chapter 36: Poison poison poison (12)

Bonus chapter! Thanks to Mrow and others for the coffees~

Ren Zhu didn’t know what he should say. Looking at the person in front of him who was completely different from that of the previous world, he nevertheless felt that he seemed to have seen Ning Xun’s shocked and sorrowful expression in him, as well as the unspeakable pain that came afterwards. As the person who left, Ren Zhu already felt extremely sad and distressed. Then, how would the person left behind feel?

Suddenly, Ren Zhu thought of the phrase ‘to be in so much pain that you’d wish you were dead’. He took a deep breath and consoled himself that his Ning Xun would not be so fragile. However, he still opened his mouth and couldn’t help but ask: “That, if there really is a person who you regard as very important, and they suddenly leave you without any reason, what would you……”

Ren Zhu didn’t finished asking this question, because he saw that Yin Feng’s eyes were fierce and filled with hostility. He abruptly stopped talking and knew that this question simply shouldn’t have left his mouth. “Sorry.”

At this moment, Yin Feng’s mood was extremely ugly. He was practically looking at Ren Zhu with a very fierce expression. He obviously wanted to treat this person a little better, but when that question came out of this person’s mouth, Yin Feng wished that he could block up his mouth forever, so that Ren Zhu would never be able to ask this kind of question again.

“I don’t like this question, or any other questions related to it. However, if you really want an answer, I can also tell you.”

Yin Feng pursed his lips: “No matter where he runs to, I will always find him. If…… he runs to a place I can’t find, then I will exhaust all methods possible to also go to that place.”

“I will absolutely not accept this fate.”

Ren Zhu turned his back and fiercely wiped away the tears he could no longer suppress. When the tears stopped flowing, only then did he nod: “En, you will find him. Then, you should properly scold him to vent your anger.”

As a result, Yin Feng faintly laughed: “I don’t even have enough time to love him dearly. How can I bear to scold him? However, if it’s in bed……”

Ren Zhu: “……” All the touched emotions he had just a moment ago were instantly eaten up by rhubarb.

“Cough. That, when I go back tonight, I will make a copy of the health soup recipe and give it to you. Tomorrow, you can hand it over to Lu Ming.” Chef Yin quickly shifted the topic, and then secretly praised himself for his own cleverness.

Teacher Ren coldly laughed and thought that he shouldn’t bicker with this ‘damaged goods’. However, he still said: “Actually, you can directly give the soup recipe to Lu Ming. Those two brothers would both be very grateful to you.”

Yin Feng shook his head: “If not for you, I wouldn’t give them this soup recipe. At least I wouldn’t gift it to them free of charge. You should know that the recipes of all the chefs on the star chef list, although calling them priceless is a little excessive, but they are absolutely worth a lot. If all my students came looking for me because someone in their family needs my recipe, I estimate that the other chefs on the star chef list would quickly combine forces to take me down.”

Ren Zhu’s face was slightly red. He felt that his main focus was all on that first sentence. He quickly told himself that he needed to suppress this guy’s flowery speech. Hadn’t he already experienced it in his previous life? He must not take it too seriously.

It was just that when he raised his head, he came into contact with Yin Feng’s extremely focused eyes in the setting sun. He couldn’t help but retreat a step: “What is it?”

Facing the sunset, Yin Feng laughed: “Are you blushing?”

Ren Zhu’s mouth twitched: “No. You saw wrong.”

Nevertheless, Chef Yin opened the door of his Benz and continued to laugh at him: “Get in the car. I know that you are very happy.”

Ren Zhu gritted his teeth: “You really should go study psychology. Also, I can take a taxi home myself.”

Chef Yin pushed him into the car: “Don’t I need to cook for you every night? Even if you don’t get sick of eating pork ribs so many times, I also get sick of making it. Today, I’ll invite you to have a good meal.”

Initially, Teacher Ren was resolute in his decision. However, as soon as he realised that the place they were going was most likely Zhenxiu Hall, he ultimately still yielded under the chef’s influence.

Anyway, a man who doesn’t eat the feast in front of him is a bastard, let alone a feast from this guy.

Hence, Teacher Ren once again sat in that seemingly very grand Benz. “Do you like this car model?”

Yin Feng: “En. It’s okay. It just feels impressive and imposing. A tough guy.”

Ren Zhu: “…… Beware of traffic jams on the road and that there isn’t a small electric scooter speeding by.”

Yin Feng clucked his tongue: “Don’t have a crow's mouth. For a big foodie like you, you just have to eat well.”

Then, they were stuck in traffic for half an hour. Chef Yin was almost late for work. Even when they were on their way there, the Zhenxiu Hall manager was already waiting anxiously at the front door: “God! Chef Yin, if you still hadn’t arrived, I was going to hang myself! Today there are a few guests whose requirements are very high. They want to eat the 3 signature Zhenxiu dishes that you make. They will leave in half an hour, you better speed it up!”

Even though this manager looked at least 5 years older than Yin Feng, he nevertheless did not mind lowering his status. At this moment, Yin Feng very elegantly rolled up his sleeves and then nodded: “Don’t panic. There’s still time.” Saying this, he walked inside. But when he had just taken a step, he paused and reached his hand back, accurately grabbing Ren Zhu’s hand. Facing the manager, he said: “Give him a window seat to himself.”

Only now did Manager Sun see Ren Zhu who had a helpless expression on his face. He immediately exclaimed: “Ah! Isn’t this Mr Ren? Aiyo! I heard that a few days ago, you were hospitalised because of an illness. You didn’t even have the time to participate in the gourmet desserts festival. Seeing your current complexion, you seem pretty good. Is your body now okay?”

As a top notch food connoisseur, Ren Zhu’s reputation was absolutely not inferior to a certain talented star chef. Hence, he was instantly recognised by Manager Sun. Smiling, he nodded his head: “Yes. I am fine. Many thanks for Manager Sun’s concern. You don’t have to bother about me. I can find a seat myself.”

Ren Zhu withdrew his hand from Yin Feng’s grasp and said to him: “Hurry up and go make your dishes. Do you think that I’m a child who has never seen the world before? When I was eating everywhere across the nation, you were still tossing the pan in the kitchen.”

Yin Feng raised his eyebrows and threw down three words: “Wait to eat.” He then took large strides towards the kitchen.

Inside the restaurant, excited cries soon sounded. Ren Zhu looked at those infatuated expressions on the faces of the female diners and waitresses. Chuckling, he went to find a window seat. No matter where this person went, he was still so full of trouble, even if he’s cold and stern in this lifetime.

When Ren Zhu went inside, he completely didn’t realise that behind him, there were also the same infatuated and admiring gazes looking at him. When Manager Sun passed by a table of guests, he also heard two beautiful women who seemed to be high salary white-collar workers say:

“Aiya! Aiya! Chef Yin just walked past me! I really feel like my palms are going to sweat! This time every week, I feel extremely blessed. Not only can I eat delicious food, I can also see at least 5 handsome star chefs ah! If I can get close to him, then this palace‘s life will be content!”

“Pei pei pei! Stop dreaming! Chef Yin belongs to everyone! No one can monopolise him! There’s no woman who can match up to him! He is simply a perfect male god ah! However, if it’s a man, I just saw someone who’s the perfect match for Chef Yin, although I don’t quite want to admit it.”

“Ah, I suddenly understand what you mean. That person is also very handsome, very beautiful and very powerful ah! He is also a first class young talent! Although I also don’t want to admit it, but just then did you see how Chef Yin pulled his hand? They look so good together!! ‘The tyrannical star chef fell in love with me!'”

“No, this should be loving him but also wanting to kill him ah! This won’t do. The more I think about it, the more my blood is pumping! Ren Xiao Mei is simply a little tsundere incubus ah!!”

“If the two can participate in a program together, then this palace’s life will be content!!”

Manager Sun’s mouth twitched as he walked past. He though to himself: Beauty, perhaps you won’t be able to be content in this lifetime. He then couldn’t help but turn his head and glance at the handsome young man sitting by the window, calming flipping through the menu. The gorgeous lighting shone onto his body, as though his entire being was emitting light.

“……” He really was very handsome and beautiful ah! Manager Sun scratched his head.

Ren Zhu had found a window seat in the corner. He didn’t want to let too many people recognise him. He just wanted to have a peaceful and quiet meal. This really wasn’t him boasting, but the more famous the restaurant he’s in, the more likely he would be recognised and furthermore, be invited to eat without paying. Every restaurant and dining hall manager hoped that after he finished eating, he would leave a five star rating. Then, they could publicise without restraint and usher in more wealth and prosperity.

Not having a meal free of charge was also pretty difficult. Today however, at least it wasn’t the restaurant that invited him for a meal. He must properly strike a certain chef.

Hence, without holding back, Ren Zhu selected several signature dishes. He didn’t require the waiter to introduce them to him as he could pick out which ones were the specialties himself. After he finished ordering, Ren Zhu waited while eating a small dessert gifted to him, pondering over his task.

Actually, if he didn’t think about the poisoning at the very start, this world was indeed very beautiful. Everywhere, there was gourmet food, as well as people who were good at making these gourmet food. He just couldn’t understand why someone would use poison. About a week had already passed since the poisoning incident, but the police still haven’t found the poisoner. This itself was a very odd situation. He was not at all convinced that the poisoner’s methods were that grand. After all, they were all only 16 or 17 year old youths.

Or perhaps, Lu Ming wasn’t the only person he need to save? But if it’s not Lu Ming, then this matter was going to enter a deadlock.

“Ah, system. No matter what you do, you should at least give a little hint right? This situation is just like trying to find a needle in a haystack. It really is pitted ah.” Ren Zhu attempted to rouse pity and sympathy from the system, but it was completely useless.

Just when Teacher Ren was prepared to accept his fate, four people suddenly came and sat down at the adjacent table. They didn’t see Ren Zhu sitting behind them and after anxiously sitting down, they started to discuss. They had thought that their voices were pretty quiet, but from start to finish, without missing a word, Ren Zhu heard everything very clearly.

“Mr Zhang, rest assured! Last time, Zhao Hu and the other’s failure was just a mishap. That day, there was someone who was particularly good at fighting. Zhao Hu and the others didn’t guard against him, so that’s why they ate a loss. This time, they have found several experienced people. Whatever the case, we will surely be able to snatch Lu Cheng Shan’s ‘Western Cuisine Records’ from the two brothers! So long as I can get the book, I would definitely be able to make Western dishes comparable to Lu Cheng Shan’s! When that time comes, Mr Zhang, you can make money lying down!” The person speaking had a somewhat husky voice. Ren Zhu felt that just from hearing his voice, he could tell that this wasn’t a good person.

“Hehe, I hope it’ll be like this. Anyway, Lu Cheng Shan didn’t only have you as a disciple. If it weren’t because his son had a car accident and ruined both his hands, you honestly wouldn’t even have had the chance to cook in my restaurant. Let’s stop talking about this matter. I will give you one last chance. If this time you still fail, then you better go find another job.”

“Yes yes yes! Rest assured Mr Zhang! Also, this handsome and beauty, dinner is my treat. I guarantee that the task will be completed within 3 days!”

Listening up to now, Ren Zhu’s heart suddenly sunk. If he still didn’t realise who the person talking was, then what was the point of developing his brain? So, what should he do now? He needed to think about how to settle the root cause of the problem. It couldn’t be solved just by fighting a round.

“Mr Ren. Your pearl emerald white jade soup is served.”

At this moment, the waitress’ posture was very graceful as she carried a dish over. She passed by Mr Zhang and Lu De Yong’s table, and then arrived in front of Ren Zhu.

Mr Zhang: “……”

Lu De Yong: “???!!”

There was actually another person here?!

Lu De Yong abruptly stood up and met eye to eye with Ren Zhu who had just raised his head.

Teacher Ren revealed a smile. He figured out a method.

Sunday’s post may be late because I will be out. Well, here’s a bonus chapter to supplement it
