Chapter 641 - 522: Satisfaction (Part 2)
He spoke while putting on an innocent and surprised face, which honestly seemed genuine enough.
Wei Guodong: "..."
Got it!
Understood!
He simply won’t admit it even if you beat him!
Xin Jinghui: "..."
Still acting?
Still acting like it’s real!
If it weren’t for knowing Old Wan’s personality, he truly would have believed it!
Just as he was about to say something to Wan Zhenhong, to uncover his cunning facade...
Wan Zhenhong looked at them in disbelief: "Director Wei, Old Xin, are you sure this news is absolutely true? Dorami Kindergarten actually didn’t serve lunch today? Not even special arrangements for Mayor Yang’s visit? If this is true, then all our careful preparations and detailed arrangements before went down the drain? Director Wan, Old Xin, we need to quickly figure out a solution! We need to make sure everyone gets to taste the dishes prepared by Chef Huang, otherwise, who knows when there will be a chance to taste them again..."
This look of "at a loss" and "anxious" truly moved the listeners, making those who saw it genuinely feel his inner anxiety and helplessness.
Wei Guodong and Xin Jinghui looked at each other, momentarily speechless.
Could it be that Wan Zhenhong really knew nothing about this?
Could it be that their previous assumptions and suspicions were all based on a wrong premise?
Just at this moment.
A voice gentle yet anxious with concern, like a spring breeze, quietly reached everyone’s ears: "Mayor Yang, is your stomach still causing discomfort with a dull pain?"
This sentence landed like a stone in a calm lake, instantly making the surrounding atmosphere tense.
Upon hearing this, Wan Zhenhong furrowed his brows slightly and turned to Wei Guodong and Xin Jinghui, full of confusion and concern: "Mayor Yang... What’s happening with him?"
Wei Guodong and Xin Jinghui quickly exchanged a glance, seeing worry and urgency in each other’s eyes.
They answered in unison: "Mayor Yang’s chronic stomachache has flared up. He refused to go to the school doctor for medicine, enduring it stubbornly till now, and it seems the situation isn’t looking good..."
During their conversation.
The two had already quickened their pace, almost shoulder to shoulder, hurriedly heading towards Mayor Yang.
At this moment, everyone’s attention was focused on Mayor Yang, their hearts rising to their throats, fearing he might suffer a mishap.
Just then, Mayor Yang’s voice echoed, though weak, bearing a hint of comfort: "No problem, no problem, just intermittent pain that should subside soon."
Seeing this, Liang Yinqiu quickly suggested: "Mayor Yang, knowing you’re unwell, our Chef Huang specially prepared a soothing porridge for you in the kitchen. How about we go to the kitchen together and taste it? It might provide some relief and ease your discomfort."
Ah?
Chef Huang is in the kitchen?
Wan Zhenhong, Wei Guodong, and Xin Jinghui heard this, eyes flashing with surprise, a hint of longing rising in their throats.
Only...
Realizing it was porridge, their enthusiasm notably cooled, as they were expecting somewhat greasy yet delicious food, rather than this light option.
But on second thought...
No matter whether cooking dishes or pastries, Chef Huang’s creations are so delicious that this porridge surely won’t disappoint, right?
Perhaps, it might bring unexpected surprises, who knows?
Such thoughts rekindled their hope, each secretly contemplating perhaps seizing this opportunity to grab a bowl, making up for not being able to taste Huang Jun’s dishes today.
Thus...
They along with other accompanying personnel responded together, collectively comforting: "Mayor Yang, your health is the revolution’s capital, you must take care. Going to the kitchen for some soothing porridge will warm your stomach and heart, and surely benefit your health greatly."
With his face slightly pale, Mayor Yang initially intended to decline. But considering his condition and the nearing end of activities, he responded politely with a smile: "Director Liang, you all are so considerate, I appreciate Chef Huang’s kindness. Since it’s so, I’ll take your kind offer and visit the kitchen."
With that, Mayor Yang mustered up his spirit, the group then moved slowly towards the kitchen with expectations for the soothing porridge.
As their steps drew closer...
A gentle fragrance of rice mingled with the deep aroma of dried tangerine peel and dates, like a silky ribbon, slowly intertwined and unfolded in the air, warmly enveloping everyone, prompting them to involuntarily slow down, taking a deep breath.
Hmm~
Just by smelling this aroma, one can already anticipate the deliciousness of the finished product.
Wei Guodong, Xin Jinghui, and Wan Zhenhong, who have tasted Huang Jun’s skill before, couldn’t help but continue deep breaths, attempting to inhale this tantalizing temptation from their taste buds, alongside a soulful solace, into their chest.
As for Mayor Yang and his group, experiencing Huang Jun’s craftsmanship for the first time, they were deeply captivated by this unprecedented aroma, feeling it was more alluring and purer than any porridge they’d ever tasted.
At this moment...
The various praises online about Huang Jun’s culinary skills silently took root and sprouted in their hearts, trust and expectation naturally arising.
"Mayor Yang, here’s our kindergarten’s kitchen, please mind the steps and walk carefully."
Liang Yinqiu walked ahead, smiling as she extended her hand invitingly and warmly.
