Chapter 1498 - 1485: Waning Enthusiasm?

Chapter 1498: Chapter 1485: Waning Enthusiasm?

"Hahaha, is there really someone who, while ordering takeout, goes specifically to the store to inquire about the prices?" Luofeng laughed.

What a silly person.

Really adorable!

Now, Bai Lu, though not super wealthy, does have the hometown sour jujube grove and the management of the foundation.

The cost of living shouldn’t be too bad, right?

And yet, would go to the store just to ask about takeout prices?

Normally, people would just order online, and maybe visit the shop offline and inquire then, not specifically go and ask.

But Bai Lu definitely went specifically to inquire.

Rather than eating at the shop and asking while there.

"Alright, alright, since you feel takeout is a rip-off, we won’t order it anymore. If we do, we have our own takeout system. You’re credited for this; you must accept the bonus!" Luofeng forcefully said.

"Oh oh!" Bai Lu had no choice but to nod obediently, no longer protesting.

When the two reached Nanfeng Third Street.

Gu Yongjie then said, "Boss Luo, there’s a surprise!"

Luofeng knew what surprise the other party wanted to talk about.

"Our chef team has someone who’s skilled at plant-based meat dishes?" Gu Yongjie said.

"What a surprise indeed!" Luofeng said, "So shouldn’t we let the chefs showcase their skills? I’d love to critique it!"

"Alright!" Gu Yongjie smiled and nodded.

Bai Lu and Luofeng chose the window position of the light food section on the second floor of White Wing.

Looking at White Wing’s backyard garden, Bai Lu sighed and said, "Student Luo, can we go and check out the backyard garden later?"

Bai Lu continued, "Back when it was bustling with people, I hadn’t properly looked at the backyard garden here. Now that there are fewer people, I’d like to see it!"

When White Wing Supermarket first opened.

This place became a school photo spot.

Now, although the frenzy has died down significantly, people still come here to play, and couples even sneak in for kisses.

But Luofeng heard Bai Lu’s underlying message.

The backyard garden of White Wing is quite similar to Luofeng, bustling with people, like Shangguan Feier sisters, the little Capital City group, the Little Fairy, and others.

There’s also Luofeng’s Bai Yue, Bai Ningbing.

Aside from that, Shen Na is gradually getting closer.

Not to mention there’s the overseas little princess.

Such a situation resembles that lively backyard garden.

In such a lively backyard garden, Bai Lu wanted to come here to properly appreciate the scenery, but had no chance.

So what happens when the excitement fades?

Perhaps he can truly appreciate the garden’s beauty?

"Actually, it’s understandable since people always prefer the new over the old; maybe they’ve seen the garden’s scenery too much, now it’s a bit quieter!" Luofeng said.

"I haven’t properly seen this backyard garden either. After we finish eating, we’ll take a walk and take some photos to see its changes, and check it again next year!" Luofeng said.

"Though liking new things over old is human nature, I choose to like new things without disliking the old!" Luofeng explained.

Liking new things is instinct.

But disliking old things is another matter.

Bai Lu understood Luofeng’s double entendre.

Luofeng meant that he is someone who cherishes memories; he never loses the warmth around him.

While Luofeng and Bai Lu were speaking in riddles, Gu Yongjie played the role of the food server.

Brought up the chef’s plant-based meat dishes.

Due to time constraints.

The head chef only prepared four dishes, namely One Plate of Vegetarian Abalone.

Dragon Well Vegetarian Shrimp.

Kung Pao Vegetarian Chicken.

And lastly, a Fruit Salad.

The vegetarian abalone was done well.

The chef used the chilling method, making the texture very nice.

Kung Pao Vegetarian Chicken almost perfectly mimicked the texture of chicken, and the flavor wasn’t lacking either.

Anyway, Luofeng couldn’t tell if it was real chicken or not.

After all, Kung Pao Chicken often uses chicken breast, whose texture is inherently bland.

The vegetarian shrimp was lacking a bit, failing to capture the springiness of shrimp meat.

"Not bad, except for the vegetarian shrimp, the other three dishes are great, especially the vegetarian abalone," Luofeng said.

The head chef said, "Boss Luo, regarding the shrimp, it’s actually because of time limitations. Given enough time, we can still achieve the springy texture!"

Luofeng nodded, "Now I’m convinced our head chef can help promote the concept of plant-based meat dishes. Are you willing to take on a new challenge?"

The head chef knew his opportunity had come, immediately nodded, "I’m willing!"

"Alright, I plan to open a separate plant-based private kitchen to compete against overseas plant-based meat. Are you willing to handle this?"

"I can do it!"

Only a fool would refuse.

As a head chef at White Wing.

One would remain a chef forever.

But if venturing out alone, managing a kitchen independently.

Then maybe there’s a possibility for profit-sharing, and greater authority.

"That’s great, I leave this matter to you. I hope you continue overseeing the White Wing light food section while developing White Wing’s plant-based meat dishes!" Luofeng said.

"No problem! White Wing Light Food’s rules are really comprehensive; combined with the light food’s ease of cooking, even if I’m not constantly here, everyone can handle it easily!" said the head chef.

"What you’re saying, isn’t it like saying you’re irrelevant whether you’re here or not?" Luofeng joked.

The head chef awkwardly touched his head.

Luofeng laughed and said, "Of course, we won’t forget your contributions, though the task is heavy, the rewards and opportunities also proportionately increase!"

The head chef felt a bit pleased inside.

Around 2 PM, Luofeng started to escort Bai Lu back to school, and on the way, Luofeng casually asked, "What are your plans for the afternoon?"

Bai Lu said, "I’ll handle the foundation matters in the afternoon. With Sister Xiran’s help, our foundation’s promotional work is very smooth, currently negotiating pet sales, adoption, abandonment, and other management methods with Shu City officials."

Luofeng was surprised, "Already reached that stage?"

This must be the help from the Yun Family circle in the Capital City, right?

Meaning Yun Xiran, that charming goddess’s assistance.
