The person with the knife entered the shop, and heard the sound of a broom sweeping the floor upstairs. It nimbly climbed the stairs, push open the door, and closed in on Ye Chui.
Suddenly, without warning, Ye Chui turned around and swings the broom in his hand at the intruder with all his might.
“Arhhh!”
This scream belongs to a woman. The broom did not touch her, but that woman drop onto the floor in fright, and the box in her hand lurched into the air as well. The box opened, revealing the gleaming blade stored within.
Ye Chui voiced out a “Yi?” sound. Then he grabbed the knife from the air.
He waved the knife around, and nodded his head. “This is a very good kitchen knife!”
This is a kitchen knife. Its handle was craved using [Red Pear Wood]. The blade was filled with a pattern created by forging.
The edge of the blade is extremely sharp, and appears to be sharpened by skilled craftsmen. The whole weight of the kitchen knife is moderate.
This knife seemed to be custom made for Ye Chui. He really likes it.
In the hands of the skilled chef, a knife is like a sword of a swordsman. A good kitchen blade can increase the taste of the food that the chef cooks.
After playing around with the blade, he suddenly recalled the person who delivered the blade.
While he was cleaning the house, he noticed the vehicle stopping at the foot of the block. Then he noticed that a person had sneaked into his restaurant and future house. Therefore, he decided to play along and use his broom to frighten off the intruder instead.
When he looked down and saw the figure of the one on the floor, he was surprised, “How come it is you?”
“Why couldn’t it be
me?” Han Yuyan looked at Ye Chui angrily. She is the champion of the woman’s mixed martial arts. How could she be so frightened by this puny youth as fall onto the floor in fright? This is such a shame!
But that is not why she was angry. The thing at infuriated her is that Ye Chui just focused on the blade, and wave it in the air, marvelling at the blade, all the while ignoring her. Is a kitchen knife prettier than she is? She was very unhappy as she climbed up from the floor, and pointed at the knife, “This knife is my Grandpa’s treasure. It is called [Zhan Xiang]. My grandpa had specially asked someone to bring it over from Beijing as a gift for you. Do you like it?”
“Yes.” Ye Chui nodded his head and reply. This knife is really extraordinary. It is something that he really likes.
Han Yuyan smiled, “Then come with me and work for my grandpa as his personal chef.”
“No way!”
Ye Chui instantly declined.
Han Yuyan flared up, “Return the kitchen knife to me!”
“Your grandpa gifted it to me. So why should I give it back to you?” Ye Chui kept the knife carefully. He is not willing to let go of this treasure easily.
“You…..” Han Yuyan waved her fists at Ye Chui. This older lady looks more like a pampered kid than a lady her age.
Ye Chui smiled and asked, “How is elder Han’s condition?”
“He is still recovering. Every day, he still nags and insisted on eating the food that you have cooked. But the doctors refused to allow him to eat anything except what they had prescribed.” When she mentioned her grandpa, Han Yuyan’s expression soften. She even looked as if she was going to cry at any moment.
She implored,
implored, “My grandpa is already very old. He had only one love – the love of fine food. You are the first and only chef who he likes. Please help him? You will definitely become famous.”
“Do not try to use this method to get me to work for you! Elder Han is very fit and healthy. I am not moved by these acts.” Ye Chui just smirked.
“You … you….” Han Yuyan was furious. If not for her grandpa’s insistence, she would have kicked Ye Chui.
But she had already prepared well before coming over, and is not ready to give up. She suddenly gives a coy smile as she asked, “Then can you accept me as your disciple? I am very smart. The lady’s champion of mixed martial arts in Beijing!”
“Darn it! Did you think it is so easy to become my disciple?” Ye Chui asked. Tian Xiaoduo, a five-star chef, barely meets his requirement as a disciple. As for Han Yuyan, there is no relation between mixed martial arts and cooking.
“I don’t care! You are my s.h.i.+fu!” Han Yuyan stubbornly insisted.
“Who agreed to accept you as a disciple?” Ye Chui groaned.
“s.h.i.+fu!” Han Yuyan sweetly called out.
“Elder Sister, please behave yourself, ok?”
“I don’t care. If you do not accept me as your disciple, I will not leave!” Han Yuyan immediately sat down on a sofa. She looked very stubborn and give Ye Chui a look that says, ‘I am going to stay here no matter what. What can you do?’
“You will not leave?”
Han Yuyan shook her head.
“Then I leave!”
Saying this, he hastily fled.
Han Yuyan, “……”
Since he had not moved in yet, he can temporarily escape the persistent Han Yuyan. He was not worried that Han Yuyan would steal anything from him. After all, she is much richer than him.
After
than him.
After Ye Chui had left, Han Yuyan frowned. She stood at the window and watch Ye Chui as he fled, and sneered, “You may run away from me today, but sooner or later, you have to come here. I will stay here and wait! You can’t stop me! Sooner or later you will give up!”
Ye Chui did not think of Han Yuyan as he rushed home. He will never become Elder Han’s personal chef. There is no room for negotiations. As for Han Yuyan, let her do as she pleased. He is not afraid of her and will cheerfully face her plots head on. He is not afraid of her.
When he reached home, it is exactly 10 pm at night. w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu was sitting on the sofa watching television. Her hand had a piece of Colonel… Hammer chicken nugget. When she saw Ye Chui, she sweetly cried out, “Ge Ge, welcome home!”
“En, do not eat too many nuggets. Too much oily food is not good for health.” Ye Chui grunt.
He looked around the room and did not see An Jing anywhere. Looks like she is having a bath.
Ye Chui thought of something, and immediately sat beside w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu, and hugged her, “Little Rain, you are often with An Jing. Tell me, does she often mention that Zhao Hongyu?”
As a brother, he does not Zhao Hongyu, and wants to know if this guy is making trouble for his sister.
w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu raised her head and asked Ye Chui, “Ge Ge, are you asking me if Zhao Hongyu is chasing after Jie Jie?”
“…. That’s right!” Ye Chui could not help feeling surprised, “You are just a kid. Do you know what ‘chasing after’ means?”
“Of course! I even have 2 boyfriends!” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu rolled her eyes, and looked down on Ye Chui,
on Ye Chui, “But you did not even have a single girlfriend yet. So embarra.s.sing!”
Ye Chui:“……”
All right, I will woo Lin Wei and show you!
“Let’s first talk about Zhao Hongyu…… is he chasing after An Jing?” Ye Chui went back to the topic.
“That’s right!” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu nodded her head, “But Jie Jie does not like him. But he is like a glue and stick to Jie Jie, and refuse to give up. He even tried to bribe me with candies.”
“Then did you accept the candies?”
“Of course, I accepted.” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu nodded her head. “But I will not help him to court Jie Jie!”
“You accept his gifts but did not help him? Isn’t this quite unreasonable?”
w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu put on her cutest look, “I am just an adorable kid, I do not know about these kinds of stuff!”
Ye Chui:“……”
Your skin is so thick to be able to say these words so shamelessly.
An Jing stepped out of the bathroom.
Ye Chui and w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu drop the discussion about Zhao Hongyu. But Ye Chui had already made up his mind and will do everything in his power to make Zhao Hongyu stay away from his sister.
Then he thought about the trip tomorrow and becomes excited. This is a good chance to get closer to Lin Wei.
That night pa.s.sed by quietly.
The next morning Ye Chui woke up early and immediately made preparations for the trip. He was still worried about the shop, and after having a quick shower, he rushed to the shop.
Ye Chui did not know if Han Yuyan was still there. After he had reached the second floor, and opened the door, he was surprised at the sight of the house…..
[1] Did anyone notice that Ye Chui was not concerned about w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu having 2 boyfriends at her age? Or is it just me?
