Brush Up Your Proficiency

If Cheng Yufei's live broadcasts of food tasting were purely amateur when she started, then Tang's father was definitely a national-level food connoisseur.

It's no exaggeration to say that dishes that could catch Tang's father's eye were already very rare, let alone surpass him in the same dish.

Tang's father was very confident in his own culinary skills and taste, but when he picked up a dish, put it in his mouth, and savored it carefully, things changed.

Originally, he had adopted a tasting posture, thinking about how to evaluate the restaurant's dishes and give appropriate suggestions, as he had agreed with his daughter beforehand.

As time went on, the frequency of chewing in his mouth involuntarily accelerated. The surprised look on his face fully expressed his appreciation for the dish, as if he had forgotten all about commenting.

Although the aroma of the dishes on the table had prepared him to some extent, he couldn't help but feel surprised in the face of such unexpectedly delicious food.

Tang's father couldn't help but gently shake his head, asking himself in his heart if he could achieve such a level if he were to make this dish. He ate while shaking his head, sighing inwardly, feeling as if he had been mercilessly slapped in the face.

Seeing her father shake his head, Tang Yan couldn't help but feel puzzled. Could it be that the taste of these dishes still didn't meet her father's requirements?

She quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and asked with some surprise, "Dad, these dishes don't meet your standards? Your requirements for food are too high!"

However, Tang's mother explained with a smile, "Don't misunderstand. Your father doesn't think it's not delicious. On the contrary, he thinks these dishes are too delicious, which is why he's so emotional."

Having lived together for so many years, she could still understand the meaning expressed in Tang's father's actions.

Tang's father nodded silently, agreeing with his wife's statement.

His smooth sailing experience over the years had made him somewhat conceited and arrogant. He thought to himself that perhaps it was because he lacked a sense of awe that he had become so arrogant.

This experience made him deeply realize that no matter who or what he faced, he should not take it lightly and should maintain an attitude of humility and awe.

Tang's father couldn't help but sigh, surprised that such a highly skilled chef was hidden in this seemingly ordinary newly opened restaurant. With this chef's level, it was indeed a bit of a waste to be in this small shop. He should go to a bigger place to shine.

Tang Yan's face lit up with a happy smile after hearing her parents' words.

She had originally been worried that her father wouldn't be satisfied with these dishes, but now that she knew her father was shocked by the deliciousness of the dishes, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After sighing, Tang's father couldn't wait to meet the chef and hurriedly asked his daughter:

"Yan Yan, you said this is your best friend's brother's restaurant. Can you introduce this head chef to Dad?" Tang's father was eager to meet such a skilled senior.

"Head chef?" Tang Yan looked at her father's expectant expression, a strange look on her face. She thought to herself that these dishes were clearly cooked by Wang Lan's brother, Wang Hao! But Dad is calling him head chef? Isn't that messing up the seniority?

"Yes, this gentleman's cooking skills are much better than mine, so it's only right to call him 'brother'," Tang's father replied as a matter of course, thinking that even if the other party was much older than him, it would be appropriate to call him 'brother', and he didn't think in the direction of a younger age at all.

"But, Dad, you're already fifty years old. Isn't it a bit rash to call someone in their thirties 'brother'?" Tang Yan asked softly, trying to suppress her laughter.

Tang's father was immediately surprised by his daughter's words and exclaimed, "Thirty years old? What thirty years old? Are you saying that the chef who made these dishes is only thirty years old? How is that possible!"

Tang's father's series of questions were more like questioning himself. What achievements had he made when he was thirty years old?

Even with the support and help of his family at that time, he had only just obtained his senior chef qualification certificate.

And now, someone had already reached such a height at such a young age, which was truly unbelievable. Such a thing was probably extremely rare in the whole world.

"But that's just the way it is!" Tang Yan said, waving her hand helplessly.

She had originally simply thought that the food in this restaurant was very delicious, but from her father's current reaction, she suddenly realized that her best friend's brother was probably not as simple as he seemed on the surface.

Tang Yan's words made Tang's father fall into a silence. After the surprise, a sigh welled up in his heart.

He no longer mentioned introducing Tang Yan to Wang Hao, but silently began to eat.

Tang Yan and her mother noticed Tang's father's low mood, but they didn't know how to comfort him. They could only eat silently while watching Tang's father with concern.

Old people fear the young and strong, the ancients did not deceive me.

At this time, Wang Hao, who was wielding a large spoon in the back kitchen, did not know that the few dishes he had made had actually caused the Taoist heart of a standing director of the Culinary Association to collapse. At this moment, he was immersed in his own world, feeling confused about his new appearance.

For most people, if they had such an opportunity for an image makeover, they would probably be so excited that they wouldn't be able to sleep for days.

However, Wang Hao was not like that. For many years, he had maintained a low-key lifestyle and was used to living quietly.

Now, he had suddenly become the focus of public attention because of his appearance. Wherever he went, he would attract the attention and discussion of others, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Wang Hao couldn't help but sigh: Alas... the world of adults is really full of helplessness.

Wang Hao took the time to go outside and call his sister to tell her about this. Little did he know that Wang Lan not only agreed very readily, but also seemed to have received some secret mission, appearing particularly excited and active.

Wang Hao sometimes really couldn't understand his sister's brain circuits, but he could only say that although he didn't understand, please continue to maintain it.
