Chapter 316: Chapter 197: Luxurious Lineup_3

Just stay for now, and look for a short-term rental nearby. Move out before Qin Luo arrives.

Ouyang immediately expressed, buddy, how did you know I had the same thought?

Then he left without looking back, carrying his takeout box to the hotel to pack his luggage, not even asking where Qin Huai lived.

Qin Huai: 6

Qin Huai waited in the private room until Xu Cheng’s interview was over.

When Xu Cheng heard that there was a wedding banquet at Huang Ji that night, and that Huang Shengli would personally prepare the Three Heads Banquet, he was tempted to stay and have a meal.

But he had eaten too much at lunch and tea time.

He really couldn’t eat any more.

If he ate the Three Heads Banquet that night, it wouldn’t be ignoring doctor’s advice; it would be visiting the hospital to see a doctor.

Xu Cheng could only politely refuse with regret.

Huang Shengli noticed Xu Cheng’s regret and immediately said that his back was much better. He would soon return to take charge of Huang’s Kitchen, and if Xu Cheng was interested in staying in Gusu for a few more days, he would prepare a private Three Heads Banquet for him in a couple of days.

There are some decent restaurants in Gusu too.

Of course, Huang Shengli still recommended that Xu Cheng visit Huang Ji in the next few days. Qin Huai knows how to make a wide variety of snacks, although not all are mastered. If Xu Cheng was interested, Qin Huai could also showcase his skills in the coming days.

Xu Cheng didn’t take Huang Shengli’s recommendations to heart. In his opinion, the snacks Qin Huai showcased today were already plentiful.

Qin Huai is only in his twenties and was born in an orphanage. Even if he started learning snacks from birth, mastering this many in 20 years is already impressive.

Nevertheless, Xu Cheng saw Huang Shengli’s appreciation for talent and knew that Huang Shengli wanted him to taste more of Qin Huai’s snacks, so he could write more about them in his food reviews and help raise Qin Huai’s reputation.

Xu Cheng nodded in agreement, indicating he would stay in Gusu a few more days to try Qin Huai’s snacks.

Even if the snacks were quite ordinary, he would focus on encouragement since talent is hard to come by.

And so, Huang Ji’s chaotic and exciting day ended with Qin Huai not having the chance to eat the staff meal. He went home to drop off luggage with Ouyang, who tagged along after packing his suitcase, and then led him to the Bone Setting Shop for a bone alignment while enjoying some fruit.

As a side note, Qin Huai didn’t get the chance to eat the evening staff meal either.

For the night’s wedding banquet, while Huang Shengli and Zheng Da were being interviewed, the kitchen was busy. Huang Jia ordered takeout meals.

The volume was large, so the delivery arrived late, and by the time it arrived, Qin Huai was already having fruit at the Bone Setting Shop.

So Qin Huai went home with Ouyang that evening and ordered takeout, paid by Ouyang.

They ate spicy hot pot.

As the two sat at the dinner table, playing on their phones while eating spicy hot pot, Ouyang suddenly stared at his phone and asked out of the blue, "Isn’t ’Taste’ quite famous?"

"Assistant Chen told you?" Qin Huai asked.

Ouyang stuffed a mouthful of kelp threads and nodded, "He mentioned a bit. I just looked it up online, and the restaurants recommended by ’Taste’ are all super expensive, especially those abroad. Compared to them, the dishes at Huang Ji are still reasonably priced."

"Did you forget to factor in the exchange rate? Restaurants abroad are always expensive." Qin Huai focused on eating the spicy hot pot.

"Oh, oh, almost forgot."

"Poverty really changed me. I didn’t think these things were expensive back when I graduated from university. Now whenever I see these high prices, my first reaction is that the businesses must be crazy for money." Ouyang shed tears of bankruptcy.

"When is ’Taste’ featuring your interview coming out? I’ll buy a few copies."

"Probably early to mid-January," Qin Huai replied.

Ouyang didn’t say anything more.

Qin Huai looked up and saw Ouyang deep in thought, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I’m wondering since ’Taste’ is so famous, if the residents of Yunzhong District and the office workers nearby might buy it."

"If they do buy it, then they’ll know you’re at Huang Ji, and that the snacks have gotten better, right?"

"Will Mr. Xu and the others, with all their free time, also come over to eat?"

Qin Huai: ...

At that moment, Qin Huai had only two words in his mind.

It’s over.
