Chapter 1502 - 1505: Absolutely Dazzling—Stunned by the Handsome Chef!
Chapter 1502 - 1505: Absolutely Dazzling—Stunned by the Handsome Chef!
Hearing Shen Qiang's words, everyone in the restaurant was stunned, especially the charming Wenren Meiqiao beside Shen Qiang, who hurriedly transmitted, "Shen Qiang, don't mess around, Yu Kang is a very skilled chef. You're the owner of Datong River, if you lose to him, it could affect your restaurant, and even if you win, there's no benefit."Shen Qiang smiled, looking helplessly at the charming Wenren Meiqiao beside him. It was unclear whether she genuinely didn't realize or was pretending to be oblivious. The truth was, the young head chef was causing trouble with Shen Qiang because of her.
Moreover, it was obvious that whether Shen Qiang accepted the challenge or not, the cultivator had already labeled him as a love rival.
So retreating or dodging wouldn't solve the problem; it would only make him more arrogant.
Not only that, the more apparent problem was.
With so many people in the restaurant watching, each of them thinking they're brilliant while Shen Qiang is a fool, if he left just like that, wouldn't they laugh their heads off? They might even point at Shen Qiang and laugh when they meet him elsewhere.
Suffering grievances yourself while making others happy, whoever likes to do that can go ahead, but Shen Qiang won't. If someone in this world is destined not to be happy, Shen Qiang's choice is someone else.
"Teach me a lesson? That depends on whether you have the ability," the young head chef said arrogantly.
Shen Qiang smiled, turned around unusually calmly, and gently walked towards the kitchen entrance under the slightly worried gaze of Wenren Meiqiao.
With a signal from the young head chef, a young chef opened the door, and Shen Qiang walked in.
"Wow, this guy is really bold, not afraid of making a fool of himself. Does he really think he can win?"
"Tsk, winning is a joke. Chef Yu Kang has been featured in the Michelin Guide, how could he possibly lose to him!"
While the numerous beautiful women patrons whispered and discussed, Wenren Meiqiao's female subordinate, who had been silently watching everything, transmitted her thoughts with a somewhat nervous expression, "General, why didn't you stop Shen Qiang? He's just the owner of Datong River, not a top chef. His strengths are alchemy and medical skills, how could he win in a cooking competition?"
With her brows knitted, Wenren Meiqiao replied, "How could I stop him? I brought him here to thank him, but unexpectedly, Yu Kang seemed to have taken gunpowder today and inexplicably got into a conflict with Shen Qiang."
The female subordinate opened her mouth as if to speak, pondered for a moment, and then swallowed her words. After all, when it comes to matters of the heart, the person involved is often oblivious, while outsiders see the truth clearly.
"There's plenty of pork belly; you can make as many as you want. As long as you make it better than me, I'll concede and admit my culinary skills only deserve to be an assistant chef in your restaurant. But if you can't, I want you to kneel respectfully at the restaurant door and tell ten passersby that you were wrong, and I, Yu Kang, am the best chef."
The young head chef said coldly, with a slight snarl at the corner of his eye.
Hearing this, the many beautiful patrons, realizing the young head chef was angry, immediately brightened their eyes.
"Wow, Chef Yu Kang is really handsome, especially when he's angry; it's simply amazing, what a man!"
"Yes, I never thought even when angry, Chef Yu Kang is so handsome!"
"Ah, my heart is about to melt. This bastard, he dared to provoke our little Yu Kang. Just wait till he's kneeling at the restaurant door and see how I shame him."
While all the female patrons snorted coldly in their hearts, Shen Qiang smiled, casually picking up a piece of pork belly, and said, "Your condition doesn't seem fair. How about this? If I lose, I'll kneel at your restaurant's door, but if you lose, you'll assist in my restaurant for three years. How about that?"
"No problem!" The young head chef raised an eyebrow and said, "A gentleman's word."
"Four horses cannot overtake it."
Shen Qiang smiled and casually reached for a chef's knife to prepare the meat.
But just then, a young chef took all the knives away.
Under Shen Qiang's bewildered gaze, he coldly said, "Knives are a chef's arms; I will not lend you my arms. So if you don't have a knife, you'll have to tear with your hands, and if you can't, you'll have to bite with your mouth, but don't expect us to help you."
Hearing his words, Shen Qiang was helpless, "I thought you'd be more gracious."
Upon hearing this, the numerous beautiful patrons gathered at the bar counter in the kitchen all laughed.
"Ha, what a joke, coming here to disrupt and still expecting a warm welcome!"
"Exactly, if it were me, I wouldn't lend them, either."
"Haha, without a knife, let's see how you make fried pork belly!"
Hearing the comments from the many female patrons, Wenren Meiqiao instinctively wanted to lend her Miao Blade to Shen Qiang but held back.
She couldn't help it; her Miao Blades comprised one 1.65 meters long, another 1.48 meters, and the shortest almost 60 centimeters. It was obviously inconvenient to take out in this situation.
Just then, Shen Qiang laughed, and a small surgical knife suddenly appeared in his hand.
Instantly, the surrounding chefs sneered.
While those beautiful patrons laughed out loud.
"Wow, what a beautiful knife! People say xxxxxxx."
"Hehehe, you're so filthy!"
"Haha, enoki mushroom!"
"I'm dying of laughter. Such a small knife, how could it possibly be useful? It'll probably take ages to slice a piece of meat."
But at that moment, Shen Qiang smiled, and in an instant, his short hair in front fluttered without wind.
The slender and exquisite small surgical knife seemed to come alive in Shen Qiang's fingertips, not only as nimble as an elf but also, to the wide-eyed shock of the women, flashed a dazzling, brilliant sword light, reflecting a rose in its tremor.
It made the frozen pork belly instantly turn into slices of uniform size and thickness.
And all of this was completed in just a split second.
Not only that, while the numerous beautiful patrons surrounding hadn't yet reacted, Shen Qiang, with a hint of a wicked smile, placed the delicate surgical knife before everyone's eyes, and in the next instant…
The surgical knife disappeared.
Without a trace, as if it never existed, causing the many beautiful patrons present to cheer and jump for joy instantly.
"Wow, that's amazing! Is he a magician?"
"The sword technique is so sharp; though the knife is so small, everything was done in the blink of an eye. Moreover, his movements just now looked so handsome!"
"Wow, his fingers are so agile, with such splendid skill but no cuts at all."
"What an impressive handsome guy! Just for this sword technique, I forgive you for offending little Yu Kang."
Seeing the surprise and awe in the eyes of the surrounding women as they gazed at Shen Qiang, Wenren Meiqiao sighed helplessly, "Sure enough, is Shen Qiang deliberately trying to bully Yu Kang? Such showy moves are indeed… so impressive!"
