Seeing Mei Ling off, Xu Hexiang sat on the balcony, tasting tea and contemplating in front of the sunset.

Xu Hui bought some daily necessities from the supermarket and walked in. She saw Xu Hexiang not feeling very good, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Hexiang turned around, waved his head and said, "Nothing!"

Xu Hui knows her father's character very well, "Mei Ling is not satisfied with Su Tao?"

Xu Hexiang nodded and said, "The Chinese Food Flavor Magazine is the organizer of the Chef King Competition and has the right to recommend two excellent chefs to enter the finals directly. I recommended Qiao Zhi to them, but Mei Ling doesn't think he is the most suitable candidate."

Xu Hexiang is a very loyal person. Qiao Zhi has been helping him repeatedly. He always wonders in his heart to find an opportunity to repay him.

The reason why Xu Hexiang has a good reputation in the food industry is that he is low-key and humble in his work. Therefore, the candidates he can recommend will naturally attract Mei Ling's attention.

Otherwise, Mei Ling would not have come from the high-speed train, lined up in a long queue, waiting for dozens of minutes just to have a lunch.

Unfortunately, Mei Ling finally hesitated and did not adopt Xu Hexiang's opinion.

Xu Hui smiled and said, "If you don't recommend it, forget it. Qiao Zhi is a piece of gold. He can succeed regardless of whether he participates in the chef king's competition."

Xu Hexiang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I just think the atmosphere in the Chinese catering industry is not good now. If this continues, you will sooner or later encounter difficulties. Chinese food culture has always been famous for its prosperity of hundreds of schools, but with the development of recent years, many traditional foods have faded out of everyone's sight, and have even disappeared completely."

Xu Hui said: "The things that were eliminated must have a reason."

Xu Hexiang looked at Xu Hui deeply, "Traditional culture must be inherited. The reason why the Chinese nation can rise at the bottom is precisely because of the integrity of civilization. Food is an indispensable part of Chinese culture."

Xu Hui knew what her father’s ideal was, but many young people could not understand it, but instead felt that her father’s ideas were unrealistic.

She sighed: "As people's pace of life accelerates, people's pursuit of food has become extremely simple or extremely rough. Why can French food be recognized by the whole world? Because French people can spend hours waiting for food to be served."

Xu Hexiang sighed: "Over the years, "Chinese Food Flavor" has been working hard to promote Chinese food to the world stage. The theme of this selection is to select a group of elites to compete with those French chefs. However, the impetuous catering atmosphere in China now determines that there are too few chefs who can study dishes quietly. Most chefs focus on busy kitchens and do not spend energy on meticulously crafting a dish."

Xu Hui sighed and said, "What do you mean is that Mei Ling chose to give up on Qiao Zhi because she is not dedicated to food enough?"

"That's right, it's a pity." Xu Hexiang said regretfully at the swaying branches of willow trees in the distance.

I can understand Mei Ling’s choice, but Qiao Zhi has infinite potential and should not be buried.

...

Inside a refined and luxurious cafe.

Han Bin was wearing a suit and shirt, his eyes closed slightly, and enjoyed the melodious music in his ears.

He missed the time he studied in the UK, not only free but also indulged.

There are some women around us who are relaxed. Whether Chinese or foreigners, as long as they are sparking in an instant, the two of them may appear in the hotel room in the next second.

Unlike in China today, if you want to solve physiological problems, you have to spend money or energy.

The female boss of the cafe is a rich second-generation who returned from France. At a party, the two met and added friends to each other. Han Bin did not choose to take the initiative to attack. On the one hand, he is now mainly focused on Tao Ruxue, and on the other hand, he remains deliberately alienated, which can often arouse the other's favor.

The female boss gave her a cup of hand-made cappuccino and laughed and said that he could get free today.

Han Bin said thank you very casually.

For this kind-hearted signal, Han Bin must keep his default.

If you are a novice, you may feel embarrassed to be free and appear to be without gentlemanship, but for veterans in love, this is an opportunity the other party deliberately leaves behind.

From a psychological perspective, when you owe others the kindness, you will have reason to ask the other party back, you invite me, and I will invite you. After a while, the relationship between each other can develop from one-sided friendship to a deeper level.

The welcome wind chime at the door rang, and a strong man flashed in, his eyes subconsciously scanning the surroundings. He was a person who was particularly alert and sensitive to unfamiliar environments.

Han Bin waved to the man, "Here."

The man pressed the black baseball cap on his head and sat opposite Han Bin, saying unhappily: "Doctor Han, haven't I told you? My job is special. If there is no particularly important thing, just contact me on the phone."

Han Bin took out an envelope from his bag, pushed it to the man's hand, and smiled easily, "I'm more at ease with some things to you in person."

The man pinched the envelope in his hand and weighed the thickness, and stuffed it into his windbreaker bag without any politeness. His expression and tone improved a lot, "So polite? It's much more than the number we had negotiated before."

Han Bin cut a small piece of cake with a knife, put it into his mouth with a fork, tasted the sweetness of his mouth, and swallowed it into his stomach, "I have already given you the money for those photos last time. The money I gave you just now is the advance payment for the next task."

The man's face darkened and wanted to take the envelope out of the bag, but no one would be willing to spit out what he had eaten into his stomach.

"What task? If it is too difficult, or it is harmful to the law and violates the law, I can't take it." The man raised the brim of the baseball hat, and a dazzling scar on his forehead flashed away.

Han Bin put the knife and fork on the plate and hugged it with both hands, "Of course. It's not as exaggerated as you think. I just want him to lose all his money."

The man picked up the lemonade on the table, took a sip, and sneered in a low voice, "No surprise, is it the male protagonist you asked me to take a secret photo last time?"

"That's right." Han Bin's mouth smiled, "He opened a canteen. It has just opened recently and the business is pretty good. What do you fear the most about opening a restaurant? Please give him something..."

The man looked at Han Bin in confusion, "What kind of deep hatred do you have with him?"

"The hatred of killing my father!" Han Bin was half-joking.

The man sighed and sighed, "No wonder! Don't worry, I can still do this little thing."

The matter was almost the same, and the man left the cafe in a low-key manner.

Han Bin likes to eat desserts, but at this moment he suddenly lost interest in several other pastries on the table.

Han Bin knew that he was an absolute and sinister villain now, but he could not forget Tao Ruxue's every frown and smile.

If she leaves herself and marry into a wealthy family, Han Bin may be able to balance her heart.

Unexpectedly, Tao Ruxue married a poor boy who was not famous and had just graduated.

When Tao Ruxue cried to herself in a broken mood, he felt that his heart was torn apart.

He felt that he should do something for Tao Ruxue.

If Tao Ruxue divorced that poor boy now, Han Bin would propose to her without hesitation.

People are most afraid of being in this kind of emotional state that is divided and they will be moved by themselves if they accidentally think that they are saints of love.

When I opened the Omega watch worth more than 40,000 yuan on my wrist, there was only one minute left before the agreed time with Tao Ruxue. Based on Han Bin's understanding of her, he would always come at a standstill.

Tao Ruxue has become accustomed to it. Every time she goes anywhere, her eyes are focused on herself.

She quickly found Han Bin's seat, sat opposite her, the waiter came over and asked softly: "What do you need?"

Han Bin smiled and said, "A cup of latte, and another dessert on the table."

Tao Ruxue said to the waiter with a calm face: "No need, I'll leave later."

The waiter looked at Han Bin suspiciously. Although Han Bin was a little embarrassed, he still nodded to the waiter with a gentlemanly manner, suggesting that she could leave.

"What? Is there an urgent matter?" Han Bin said with concern.

"This thing is returned to you intact." Tao Ruxue's face was as deep as water, and she threw the envelope containing the photos in front of Han Bin.

His facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, and his eyes are cold and arrogant.

Han Bin looked at Tao Ruxue in surprise and smiled awkwardly: "What does it mean?"

Tao Ruxue said seriously: "If the heroine in the photo is someone else, I might believe in the authenticity of the photo. But the object is my sister. I know her personality very well and will never do ugly things that make people point fingers behind their backs.

Han Bin, I originally thought you were a very warm person, but I didn’t expect that there were too many conspiracies in your belly. If one of these photos was scattered outside, I would definitely hold you accountable.

Please keep a distance from me in the future and don’t let some of the beautiful memories that have remained in the past disappear completely. We may be able to get along with ordinary friends."

After Tao Ruxue said this, she gently picked up the handbag from the next door and walked out the door without looking back.

"Ru Xue, listen to my explanation, don't leave..."

Han Bin wanted to keep Tao Ruxue, but in the end he didn't have the courage to take action.

My image in Tao Ruxue's heart must be very bad. I used to secretly release medicine before, but Qiao Zhi exposed it, and now I have arranged someone to investigate her husband and sister...

Although it is for Tao Ruxue's good, I always feel a little sinister and despicable.

Han Bin felt like he could not lose rice after stealing chickens. He was upset that he forgot that Tao Ruxue had a strong self-esteem, especially in protecting her family, and she never retreated.

Qiao Zhi may be just an outsider with a false reputation to her.

But Tao Rushuang is her real sister. How could she not protect her reputation as an older sister?

If you quarrel when you close the door, you will be unanimous to the outside world when you open the door.

However, Tao Ruxue's rejection stimulated Han Bin's male instinct.

He will never give up easily.

Looking at the coffee that had only been half drunk on the table, Han Bin took out a few bills from his wallet and pressed them under the coffee cup, leaving depressedly and low-key.
