Chapter 190 I am a flower and bird
The morning light was just breaking, and the sky was turning a gentle pale blue.
The Yunbian Inn Restaurant, which is located in Xingyun, has quietly opened its glorious prelude amid the anticipation of everyone.
Outside the restaurant, the veil-like morning mist lingered and danced with the colorful flags, celebrating the arrival of this extraordinary moment.
The fragrance of flowers and the freshness of morning dew interweave to add a touch of elegance and peace to this festive occasion.
With a melodious and slightly age-old sound of "creaking", the heavy and simple door slowly opened in the morning light.
Outside the door, the guests could no longer contain their excitement and curiosity.
They were dressed in various gorgeous costumes, with smiles on their faces, and they poured in like a tide.
The laughter and joyful chatter intertwined into a lively, cheerful and melodious overture, echoing melodiously in every corner of the restaurant.
Xinghan and Shenli, as Xingyun's good friends and right-hand men, also changed into festive clothes today.
Xinghan was wearing a well-tailored brocade robe with auspicious cloud patterns embroidered on the lapel.
He stood outside the store with a smile on his face and in a gentle manner, extending his sincere greetings to guests from afar from time to time.
Shen Li, on the other hand, was wearing a fiery red dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind. She led the guests in an orderly manner with a smiling face.
At this moment, the area around the restaurant is extremely lively.
As the door opened, a burst of crisp and melodious firecrackers suddenly rang out, like spring thunder, instantly igniting the atmosphere on the scene.
Colorful confetti flew in the air, blending with the laughter of the guests.
The festive atmosphere of the new store opening was pushed to a climax.
"Welcome, welcome." Xingyun, the shopkeeper, simply said at the opening ceremony.
“I hope this restaurant will become a warm haven for everyone, where men, women, young and old, from all over the world are all equal. When you enjoy the food in our restaurant, I hope that your dreams will come true.”
Outside the gate, the guests blocked the road.
"Oh, is this the legendary Pingdeng Restaurant? It's really magnificent!" A young man dressed in gorgeous clothes, holding a folding fan in his hand, his eyes sparkling with curiosity and admiration.
"I heard that not only are the dishes here exquisite, but what's even more rare is the respect shown to women. I must savor them carefully today." A gentle woman next to her echoed softly, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.
Next to this woman, there was a graceful and elegant woman who caught Xinghan's attention.
She stood quietly, like an elegant ink painting, inadvertently attracting the attention of people around her.
She was dressed in a dress that was simple yet noble. The fabric was soft and the color was warm, just like the first ray of soft sunlight in the early spring morning, which was neither ostentatious nor hard to ignore.
The gorgeous clothes are cleverly embellished with many exquisite butterfly-shaped decorations. These butterflies are either spreading their wings to fly or quietly staying there. They are lifelike, as if they can flap their wings and fly out from the sleeves at any time and fly into the boundless spring scenery.
Her eyes were as clear as water, sparkling with anticipation and curiosity, as if she could see into the deepest secrets of human heart.
When her eyes inadvertently met Xinghan's, Xinghan couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart, as if there was some kind of indescribable fate between the two of them.
He looked at the woman carefully, but found that he had never seen her before. This familiar feeling made him even more confused and curious.
Xinghan thought to himself that perhaps it was fate that made him meet such a gentle and graceful woman with extraordinary temperament in such a huge crowd of people.
He smiled gently and gave the woman a gentle and friendly look, as if silently telling her that he was willing to be her partner in her gourmet food tasting journey today.
The woman responded with a smile, which was like a spring breeze, warm and bright, making this grand opening day even more warm and beautiful.
After Xingyun announced today's special preferential policies, guests rushed in.
Inside the restaurant, the candlelight flickered, reflecting the exquisite tableware and furnishings, and every detail revealed Xingyun's pursuit of perfection. Guests sat or stood, laughing and talking, and from time to time someone nodded in praise of the uniqueness of Xingyun Restaurant.
The sunlight shines through the gauze-like clouds, dappled onto the bluestone slabs of the Xingyun Restaurant, casting a soft and warm golden coat on this afternoon.
Inside the restaurant, the windows were half open and a breeze blew across the face, bringing with it the faint scent of flowers and the aroma of food, interweaving into a melodious and elegant melody.
Xinghan was wearing a long gown made of brocade, with his lapels fluttering in the wind, like a scholar walking in a painting. He held a stack of exquisite bamboo questionnaires in his hand, and walked lightly among the guests, revealing his respect and care for the guests with every step.
Xinghan had already transformed into Xingyun Restaurant's right-hand man, with a sincere smile on his face.
He held the exquisite questionnaire in his hand and stopped at every table he visited. He greeted them softly and asked in his magnetic voice:
“Is the food to your liking? We look forward to hearing your feedback.”
As he spoke, he handed a questionnaire to the guest and added with a smile:
"Fill out this questionnaire and you can also receive a small gift of our specially made peanuts. We hope it can add a little flavor to your dinner."
After Xinghan sent out several questionnaires, he came to the table of the woman who looked familiar to him.
He observed more carefully. He saw that the kind-looking woman was appreciating every dish on the table with her bright eyes, with a satisfied smile on her face. The elegant woman next to her also seemed very interested, and the two exchanged opinions from time to time.
Judging from the smile on his face from time to time, he seemed to be full of praise for the food at Xingyun Restaurant.
Xinghan moved a little closer to the table and heard their conversation:
"It's so exquisite. Every dish is like a work of art. It's hard to resist eating it."
The woman who Xinghan felt was familiar spoke first. Her voice was clear and pleasant, like a mountain stream, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
The woman noticed Xinghan coming, so she called him over and introduced him,
"I'm Hua Niao, and this is my best friend, Li Xinyue. We are all very satisfied with the dishes here, especially the ultimate pursuit of ingredients and cooking skills, which is really admirable."
Xinghan's smile brightened when he heard this. He nodded gratefully, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then turned to the guests dining in the lobby and said:
"Good afternoon, distinguished guests." Xinghan's voice was as gentle as jade, with a bit of the elegance and grace of a scholar. "I'm new to Xingyun Restaurant, and I hope you can give me some advice and let me know if the dishes are to your taste."
After saying this, he bowed lightly and respectfully handed a bamboo slip questionnaire to the guests at the nearest table.
Sitting among the guests at that table were Hua Niao and Li Xinyue.
