Gourmet: From a Stall in Northern Europe Chapter 174 136: Stop Sleeping, Come Down for Breakfast (2)

"?"

Is this guy snooping on my ssaging app account?!

The previous platforms he followed were like Instagram, mainly photo and video platforms, but now it's a friend request on a ssaging app.

"Damn man, no way, if he dares to invade my privacy now, who knows what more excessive things he'll do in the future. I can't accept this friend request!"

Without a mont's hesitation, she directly clicked reject.

Around the corner, Gray, who had originally looked up so tips online to co back and apologize to her, witnessed the whole process. Seeing the two chatting and laughing, with Elise even handing over her phone, he felt like a thunderbolt struck him from the head and he silently turned away.

"It's over, it's over, it's really over, I'm heartbroken, waaah..."

Lucas hadn't walked far, confidently picked up his phone to check the popping up... notification?

Impossible, the nickna and avatar were clearly correct!

He turned around, looking towards the counter.

Could it be she didn't check her phone?

At that glance, he happened to et Elise's gaze.

The latter disdainfully raised her middle finger.

"?????"

He was a bit bewildered.

What is this situation?

She was just all smiles asking for my account, how co she's now pretending not to know !

Won, can't understand them.

Arriving at the food truck, besides three familiar people, there was only a young couple dining, and they seed to have finished breakfast, whispering in each other's arms.

Diverting his envious gaze, he turned to look at Lin Chen busy inside the window.

"Not to say, Old Lin, but are you crazy? This isn't ho, who grabs people for breakfast at five in the morning here!"

"Pfft..."

Speaking in Chinese, Jiang Shuqi thought the sa but didn't dare to say it. Suddenly hearing soone express her thoughts, she couldn't hold back a laugh.

"Mind your own business! This is called getting used to work life in advance, you know!"

Complaints aside, Lucas still obediently took out his cara to start filming the process of making fish soup noodles, not forgetting to capture scenes of the three won slurping noodles.

"Wait, what ti did you get up, for the fish soup to be this rich, it'd take at least an hour, don't tell you got up at four."

"No, what are you thinking, no way."

"Phew, that's good, there's still hope for you."

"I didn't go back at all last night, ca in during the dead of night to stock up and started cooking right away. This pot of fish soup was stewed for a full four hours before selling it."

"... Hello, is this 112? There's a late-stage ntal patient here, co take him away, quick!!!"

Five minutes later.

Lucas, tasting the unparalleled deliciousness of fish soup noodles, finally reconciled with himself.

Never in his life had he tasted such pure and savory fish soup; no wonder it was simred overnight for four hours. It was truly worth it!

"Thanks, Old Lin!"

"Not hard, just life's hard."

"By the way, you're starting to make the restaurant's buffet breakfast every day next week, right? Just you as the chef? Won't that an you'll have to get up at three or four every day? Let know if there's anything I can help with."

"That's great, I was just thinking about getting so help, temporary hiring isn't reliable, might as well hire you to help out. We've been working together for a while, we've got chemistry."

"... Bye."

"The pay and conditions here are really good~"

"Hmm? Elaborate."

"Think about it, isn't the hotel owner super rich? With such grand fishery and farm investnts, the final step is our restaurant, how bad could the pay be?"

"Plus, I already have two recruiting spots in hand, if we can handle this ourselves, we could get that money as a bonus."

"Makes sense!"

Lucas seed intrigued by the vision he painted.

Most importantly, dinner was reservation-based, only serving three rounds of guests at most per day, aning it wouldn't be too late to get off work; this guy would surely still run his food truck.

This way there would be dual-inco security, then in his spare ti day or before bed, he could edit videos, working three facets.

"Alright, deal for now, but fair warning, I can't cook, can only help wash veggies and move stuff at best, don't give any technical tasks, unless it's sothing simple like making bingfen."

"No problem."

Lin Chen gave an OK gesture: "Chinese buffet doesn't need high-level skills nor plating, as long as the taste is delicious."

The entire conversation fell into the ears of the three won, Dais and Elsa exchanged glances, secretly relieved.

They were worried the chef might overextend himself, but it seed they were overthinking. The man's not stupid, if he can't finish the work, of course he'd find help.

Though they hadn't known Lucas long, they were at least half a friend now. Working with soone familiar was more convenient and faster than starting from scratch with a stranger.

Besides, he apparently had been running the food truck with the chef for a long ti, obviously capable both in patience and attracting custors, otherwise the chef wouldn't have tead up with him.

When busy, he could also serve as a waiter. There should be a male server after all.

Jiang Shuqi drank the soup noodles bit by bit, her gaze shifting among them.

"By the way, Dais, what was the na of the restaurant you worked at before?"

"Us? God's Kiss, the one that's been gaining quite the reputation lately."

"Oh, so it was that place... what??? You said that guy used to be a chef at God's Kiss??"

"Yeah," Dais nodded, "the chef was responsible for the at section, and occasionally helped with main dishes."

Wow, she never expected that one of the few Western restaurants she actually found delicious had soone like him cooking in the back kitchen.

No wonder the food felt sowhat familiar, turns out it incorporated a hint of Great Xia's cuisine techniques, presented in Western forms.

She even went there for two or three als in a row, then had dinner at Lin Chen's food truck.

All along, it was his cooking!

"Hey, you two!"

Being so close, Lin Chen obviously heard their conversation and helplessly called out.

"Don't go telling everyone around; this restaurant is independent, don't let others think it's a branch of... Understand?"

"Huh? Can't say? Sorry chef, we'll be careful!"

"It's okay, they're all acquaintances here."

Glancing at the nearby young couple, they were kissing, completely uninterested in the outside world.

Finishing breakfast quickly, Jiang Shuqi returned to the hotel to catch up on sleep, while Dais and Elsa, initially wanting to stay and help drag in custors or spread the word, were eventually sent back by him to rest.

The two won had been exerting physical effort for three consecutive days, needing proper rest to avoid impacting next week's work.

"Wow, so envious, I want to go back to sleep too."

Holding fish soup noodles, Lucas took big gulps, his eyes filled with envy.

He fild already, but re process shots weren't enough, he needed to capture custors' reactions; otherwise, it would have been in vain.

Jiang Shuqi instructed him to film as much as possible, emphasizing quantity to later cut out useful clips for editing.

Over ti, he'd gradually figure out what kind of shots were needed and what wasn't.

After finishing his bowl of fish soup noodles, still no new custors appeared.

He couldn't help but feel a bit irritable.

Wish more people would show up so he could finish filming and go back to sleep!

"Seriously, why are these tourists here so good at sleeping, don't they know the morning is the most important part of the day, the sunrise is so beautiful, why not co and see?"

"They're here on vacation, why waste life sleeping in their rooms!"

"Hey!! Dude on the third-floor balcony, I see you! Co down for breakfast~"

"Lady on the fifth floor!!!"

"Are you single? Co down for a chance encounter with a handso guy~"

"Look over here, there's already a couple smooching~~"
