Brush Up Your Proficiency

#271 - Tips for Zhan Luo

Su Mo Dan's confidence in dealing with the inspection team greatly increased after witnessing the enthusiastic performance and boosted morale of her team members.

"As long as my teammates don't screw up, I can totally carry this with Wang Hao as my trump card!" Su Mo Dan thought to herself.

Now bursting with confidence, she didn't hide her admiration when she looked at Wang Hao. She said sincerely:

"Chef Wang, you heard everyone's comments just now. They were all very satisfied. We've decided not to make any changes to the menu for tonight. Thank you so much for your hard work, Chef Wang."

Wang Hao smiled calmly upon hearing this. He felt that doing a good job for the people he had promised was only right. He didn't think it was anything special, and he certainly wouldn't be proud of it.

Reading "Lao Zhuang" during this period, coupled with his personality, made him feel rather indifferent towards things that would make others ecstatic.

Therefore, after receiving praise from the beautiful and capable Su Mo Dan, his emotions didn't fluctuate much.

"Thank you, thank you!" Su Mo Dan nodded politely upon hearing this and watched Wang Hao leave.

She looked at Wang Hao, a man of similar age to herself, but who constantly exuded a calm aura, and felt that he was much more mature than her. Her gaze was full of admiration.

Over the years, she had seen no shortage of geniuses and so-called successful people, most of whom were either aggressively ambitious or possessed an uncomfortable arrogance hidden beneath a veneer of cultivation.

Rarely had she met a man like Wang Hao, who seemed truly unfazed by any crisis and gave people a feeling of magnanimity!

Especially after she learned about his background and the difficult conditions he had faced since childhood, she was even more amazed. How extraordinary must he be to become such an outstanding person under those circumstances?

Watching Wang Hao smile faintly and head towards the kitchen, Su Mo Dan couldn't help but be lost in thought.

At this moment, Song Ling, who had left with the others earlier, returned. Seeing her boss reveal such a rare expression, she was immediately surprised. She knew that her boss always projected a cool image, as if nothing could change her essential nature.

But now, seeing such a human expression made her impression of Su Mo Dan more vivid.

Then, thinking of the gourmet feast just now, she somewhat understood the reason for this change. After all, it was a pity that such an excellent head chef wasn't one of their own. Anyone would feel uncomfortable in that situation, let alone a competitive person like her boss.

Thinking that she understood Su Mo Dan's psychological change, Song Ling coughed softly after walking to Su Mo Dan's side. Seeing that she had caught her attention, she then reported the upcoming itinerary of the inspection team and other related matters to Su Mo Dan one by one, and asked for her specific suggestions on these matters.

Interrupted from her thoughts by Song Ling, Su Mo Dan realized that she had just lost her composure. She quickly regained her senses, pretended that nothing had happened, and listened to Song Ling's report.

Before long, she suppressed the somewhat unusual emotions she had felt just now and began to think about the upcoming work arrangements, not mentioning her somewhat unusual behavior just now.

Returning to the matter at hand, Su Mo Dan then asked Song Ling to go with her to personally review the upcoming process.

After that, she checked the work of each department one by one. Only after going through all the details did she feel relieved. Then, she went to the office to change her clothes and began to wait for the arrival of the inspection team.

Wang Hao, on the other hand, was in the kitchen with Zhan Luo, making preparations.

At this time, after tasting the dishes cooked by Wang Hao, Zhan Luo couldn't muster any competitive spirit towards Wang Hao. He was purely in awe and reverence.

"Such a chef must be at the level of a state banquet, right? The boss's connections are really too great. She was actually able to invite such a chef from a famous school!

But it can also be considered that I have gained a lot of knowledge. I can imitate some of the techniques and cooking methods that the 'senior' used just now, and it is foreseeable that my cooking skills will definitely improve greatly in the future!"

Thinking this way, Zhan Luo's gaze became more and more focused as he observed Wang Hao's movements.

Wang Hao naturally noticed Chef Zhan's thirst for knowledge. After all, not everyone was like him, with the help of a cheat, as if they were born with some exquisite cooking skills.

Seeing that there was still plenty of time and no need to rush, Wang Hao slowed down his pace so that the other party could see clearly.

He also intentionally or unintentionally "discussed" some key points of cooking, so that the other party could make progress in this conversation.

With the assistance and blessing of the cheat, Zhan Luo's mind seemed to open up all of a sudden after receiving Wang Hao's guidance. Various thoughts came to him, and the corresponding problems he had before seemed to be solved at this time.

His brain, which hadn't been working for a long time, seemed to become active again.

Zhan Luo only felt a silent "buzzing" sound in his brain, followed by a feeling that his whole body was connected, which made him shiver.

After he reacted, he understood that this was Wang Hao, the "senior," intentionally guiding him.

For this kindness from a stranger, his original admiration began to slowly turn into gratitude!

Thinking back to when he was learning to cook, the old masters relied entirely on their students to learn on their own. As someone who had been through it, he knew the hardships best.

Moreover, their master's secretiveness and bad temper added fuel to the fire on their arduous path of learning, making the days of learning even more difficult.

But now, Wang Hao, this "senior," was taking the initiative to guide him without any request from him.

One was passive刁難 (difficulties) and the other was active奉獻 (dedication). These two behaviors were not on the same level at all, and it made him, who knew the hardships of learning, feel particularly moved!

More importantly, the amazing effect after his guidance was something he had never felt in his decades of learning.
