Wang Xueyi thought for a mont, then smiled and said, "Well, you never know, maybe he really had so kind of lucky encounter!"
"Was he possessed by an ancient Imperial Chef? Or maybe a Ghost Chef took over him?"
He Tao also laughed and teased,
"Otherwise, how could he suddenly beco so skillful!"
The two of them occasionally mocked Jiang Yu in their conversation, as if only by doing so could they slightly relieve their inner jealousy and dissatisfaction...
Of course, they were both smart people. They would only say such things privately and never in front of others.
After all, they had done this kind of thing more than once before.
...
June 15, 2019, Saturday, the weather was sunny.
It was an extrely ordinary day, so ordinary that it was no different from yesterday or the day before.
However, today the Jiang University College of Humanities was exceptionally lively.
Around seven o’clock in the morning, the young teachers in the School of Humanities office arrived early to start setting up the eting room.
Before long, students started arriving in twos and threes, each wearing a different expression—so were excited, so anxious, and others calm and composed.
The School of Humanities had three departnts, and today was the day for the Philosophy departnt’s thesis defenses, while the History and Huaxia Language and Literature departnts’ defenses were scheduled for later.
The thesis defense wouldn’t start until 8:30, so when the students arrived at the school, they didn’t rush upstairs. So classmates who had good relationships gathered happily to chat about interesting stories from their internships or discuss their future plans.
Graduation equals unemploynt; so were happy while others worried.
As they chatted, inevitably, they brought up a classmate who was usually not very noticeable—that was none other than Jiang Yu.
"You’ve all heard, right? The Seventh Dining Hall on campus was opened by our classmate Jiang Yu, it’s really famous online now!"
"Exactly, it was really unexpected. He was like an invisible person in our class, and now, without even graduating, he’s quietly made such a big splash. It’s astonishing! At first, I thought it was soone else with the sa na!"
"Yeah, exactly! The last ti the Seventh Dining Hall held a ’fan benefit’ event, they said Jiang Yu personally made peach blossom mille-feuille. I wanted to buy a box to try out our old classmate’s skills, but who would have thought, in less than a second, 100 boxes were all snatched up!"
"Hey, hey! By the way, they praise the food at Seventh Dining Hall online as if it’s like dragon liver and phoenix marrow from the heavens, sothing unforgettable after just one bite. Haven’t any of you on campus tried it?"
"I actually have tried Jiang Yu’s soup dumplings. Honestly, they’re really delicious. I’ve never had them before, so I don’t know how others taste, but they’re great, really great!"
"Wow! So based on what you’re saying, the online hype isn’t just blowing smoke? When Jiang Yu arrives, we should get him to treat us to a al. After all, we’re classmates, and he shouldn’t be stingy about treating us to dinner, right?"
"Hehe, do you even know how much a al by Jiang Yu costs before you dare to ask? Rumor has it, his banquets have sold for as high as a hundred thousand!"
"Gasp! Really? Then I won’t dare ask, it’s way too pricey!"
"What’s to be afraid of? You’re so pretty, if you can’t pay for the al, you could always offer yourself instead!"
"Hahaha..."
A group of girls burst into laughter, while the girl being teased rolled her eyes and spat,
"Get out of here..."
