Brush Up Your Proficiency

"Why isn't it open yet? We all came after watching yesterday's video. Who would have thought we'd come so early, only to be turned away? The video didn't say what time it would open, and now we have to wait this long. It's really disappointing!"

The people in line, seeing that "Food is Heaven" showed no signs of opening, couldn't help but complain.

They were conflicted. On one hand, they wanted to leave, but on the other hand, they were curious because so many people were queuing up, wanting to know just how delicious the food was to attract so many people willing to wait in such a long line to taste it.

Just then, someone spoke up to reassure them: "Don't worry, it should be soon. Yesterday was the first day of opening, so the opening time was earlier. Today it's back to normal. Although the timing is a little off, the food inside will definitely not disappoint."

Hearing this, some of the people who were originally dissatisfied felt a little calmer.

At this moment, some customers who had tasted the delicacies of Food is Heaven yesterday saw the situation and took the initiative to chat with the curious people around them, introducing the dishes in the restaurant.

They described the taste and texture of each dish vividly, as if the dishes were already in front of them. They especially mentioned that each dish was like a signature dish, making people salivate.

Watching their aftertastes, other people's curiosity was completely aroused, and they all expressed that they wanted to try it themselves.

In this way, the people who had originally planned to leave also stopped and decided to continue waiting.

After all, these people's expressions were so real, not like shills. Moreover, there wasn't much time left until the official opening at 11 o'clock, and they felt they could wait patiently for a while longer.

At this time, a family of three appeared on the street corner but was stunned by the scene in front of them. They had never seen so many people queuing up for a restaurant.

"So many people! Yan Yan, let's come another day. How long will we have to wait in this line?" Father Tang looked at the seemingly endless queue and thought, 'Is this another internet-famous spot?'

With so many people patronizing, even if the taste of the food inside isn't as good as his daughter described, it shouldn't be too bad, but looking at so many people, he couldn't help but feel discouraged.

After all, what kind of food hasn't he eaten or made? When has he ever had to wait so long for a meal? It's a joke. Despite his daughter's strong recommendation, there's no need to eat here.

When Tang Yan saw that her father was starting to object, she thought, 'How could that be?' They finally had time. She wouldn't allow herself to miss out on such deliciousness.

Immediately, Tang Yan pouted and looked at Father Tang, expressing her dissatisfaction, and then said relentlessly, "No, we're eating here for lunch today. I'll find some connections to go through the back door." As she spoke, she took out her phone to call her best friend.

Father Tang was about to say something, but Tang Yan didn't wait for Father Tang's response and directly dialed Wang Lan's number.

At this time, Wang Lan, who was sitting by the desk, looking at a few knowledge points in the book, was distracted. When she saw her best friend's call on her phone, she immediately stopped thinking and answered the phone with a smile.

"What's wrong, beauty? Do you miss me?" Wang Lan greeted her in their usual way.

"Ahem, my parents are here. Keep it down," Tang Yan was startled by Wang Lan's opening remarks and quickly covered her phone, reminding her in a low voice.

In order to prove to her parents that she could find connections, she turned on the speakerphone directly, so Father Tang and Mother Tang heard Wang Lan's strange opening remarks word for word, and they all looked at their daughter strangely, barely managing not to laugh out loud.

Tang Yan's response to Father Tang and Mother Tang's performance was a look of embarrassment and anger.

Hearing Tang Yan's words, Wang Lan suddenly felt a little embarrassed and wanted to hang up the phone. These tiger-wolf words, which seemed perfectly normal to them, would be seen in a different light by outsiders.

After a moment of silence, Wang Lan eased up a bit and said, "Yan Yan, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you to go through the back door. There are too many people queuing up at Food is Heaven today. We came late and can't get in!" Tang Yan explained the whole story, her tone full of trust in Wang Lan's ability.

Wang Lan was also taken aback. She looked at the time on her phone and found that it wasn't even opening time yet, but people were already queuing up, and according to Tang Yan, there were quite a few people.

It seemed that her brother wouldn't be able to come back to cook today's two meals, and she would have to "reluctantly" go to the restaurant to freeload a staff meal again.

Hearing the praise in Tang Yan's tone, Wang Lan suddenly felt a sense of honor. Tang Yan had always helped her in school, and now it was her turn to help her, so naturally, she couldn't refuse.

Wang Lan immediately patted her chest and guaranteed, "Don't worry, it's a small matter. I'll solve it for you with one phone call!" Her tone was full of boldness.

Wang Lan's relaxed and comfortable voice came from Tang Yan's phone receiver, making Tang Yan look at her parents with a smug expression.

After Wang Lan hung up the phone, she didn't call Wang Hao to tell him about this, because she knew that with her brother's personality, although he would eventually agree to her request, he would inevitably give her a lecture. So, she directly dialed Cheng Yufei's phone.

"What's wrong, Xiao Lan?" At this time, Cheng Yufei had just recovered from that inexplicable mood. After receiving Wang Lan's call, her tone was slightly unnatural.

"Sister Feifei, is this a bad time?" Wang Lan clearly heard something wrong in Cheng Yufei's words and asked with concern.

"No, no, I just had a sore throat. Your brother just went to the kitchen. Do you need me to find him for you?" Cheng Yufei quickly raised her voice to cover it up and then quickly changed the subject.

"No, I'm looking for you specifically." Then Wang Lan told Cheng Yufei about her best friend wanting to cut in line and specifically told her not to tell Wang Hao, otherwise, she would get a lecture.

After Cheng Yufei finished listening, she said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's a small matter. I'll tell the people in front, and you can just have your best friend report your name when she enters."

Cheng Yufei naturally agreed to Cheng Yufei's request. Leaving aside their personal relationship, even if it was because of her successful makeover of Wang Hao today, she should reward her.

"Hehe, thank you, Sister Feifei. I knew you were the best!" Wang Lan said happily.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yufei shook her head helplessly. Wang Lan was really a lucky person to have a brother like Wang Hao.

After Wang Lan had settled everything, she felt proud and told her best friend about it. Then, she happily swayed her feet and continued reading.
