After Marrying the Officer Chapter 598: Confirming Identity

Having tasted the dishes and realizing the "true" capabilities of his apprentice, Old Sir Guan thought, "It seems I’ll need to find myself another apprentice, soone to truly carry on my legacy."

With a sigh, Old Sir Guan put down his chopsticks and said to Xia Chuyi, "Take the dishes out."

Xia Chuyi nodded, prepared to take the tray out, not having the slightest idea that her master was already planning to "abandon" her.

She carried the dishes out of the kitchen and was approaching the private room when Qian Qianqian happened to open the door and ca to et her, "Chuyi, let serve the dishes!"

Xia Chuyi did not hesitate to hand over the dishes.

After all, Qian Qianqian was the front-of-house waitress.

"Qianqian, after you’ve taken the dishes over, if they have any requests, co quickly and tell in the kitchen," Xia Chuyi instructed.

Qian Qianqian accepted the dishes, winked at her, and said, "Don’t you trust ?"

Then, Qian Qianqian carried the dishes and turned back to the private room.

Xia Chuyi didn’t enter but only peered through the curtain to vaguely see the people inside.

Huo Zhongcheng had co alone, while Mr. Ou seed to have brought his wife.

Since both were elders, Xia Chuyi was unsure if they were indeed the fathers of Ou Jun and Ou Cong.

Hey, was it sothing important again?

With Brother Ou not around and having no real connection with the Ou family, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to suddenly go up and greet them.

Xia Chuyi didn’t think too much about it and went back to the kitchen.

Old Sir Guan, back in the kitchen, saw his apprentice return and didn’t say much, just continued to cook.

Now that he was aware of his apprentice’s true skill level, Old Sir Guan didn’t have any reservations about giving orders to Xia Chuyi.

And Xia Chuyi? At this point, she simply stopped hiding and assisted Old Sir Guan with all her might.

Since it was the grand opening, many of Old Sir Guan’s connections from his days in the Capital City had co to support, so "Delicious Residence" did quite well on its first day.

However, the highest-ranking guests were still Huo Zhongcheng and Ou ZhenTing.

That was the reason they had co early, to avoid the later crowd.

Huo Zhongcheng and his group had co sowhat just to show support, so they didn’t stay long before paying the bill and leaving.

When they settled the bill, as new custors arrived, Old Sir Guan went out to see the guests off, leaving Xia Chuyi busy in the kitchen.

Therefore, she didn’t get to see Ou ZhenTing and his companion directly, only catching a glimpse of them from a distance through the kitchen’s serving hatch, barely recognizing what they looked like.

Without much ti to think further, the restaurant beca busy.

After a while, Qian Qianqian suddenly rushed into the kitchen and said, "Chuyi, at Chief Ou and Chief Huo’s table just now, a necklace was lost."

"What?" Xia Chuyi exclaid, "Bring it here for to see."

Xia Chuyi took the necklace; it was a very fine pure gold chain that had snapped in the middle and was placed in a jewelry box.

The pendant was a small heart-shaped box, and upon opening it, there was a hand-drawn picture of a baby inside. On the opposite side of the little box was the character "Pride" in cursive script.

She didn’t need anyone to tell her; Xia Chuyi knew that the Mr. and Mrs. Ou who had co today must be the parents of Ou Jun and Ou Cong.

And this necklace belonged to Mrs. Ou, which had probably snapped and been taken out for repair, then was accidentally dropped at Delicious Residence.
