2585 Change fiancée?
It just so happened that he got to know man man during that period of time. He was also very fond of the cakes she made. When he got the news that man man and Yuan Zhou were from the same city, he made up his mind to come here. Even if the cake shop was fake, man man’s cake was real. If he could trick man man to open a shop France, it would be a great harvest.
Then I can eat delicious cake anytime and anywhere. Just thinking about it makes me excited.
Of course, what made Lilian decide to come to Chengdu wasn’t the illusory cake shop or the goal of opening a restaurant, but a box of Red Velvet Cheese cookies that man man had developed according to the red velvet cake made by Yuan Zhou.
To put it simply, man man had lured Lilian from the distant Toulouse to her with a box of cookies. Even if this box of cookies was an unprecedented new variety, the price was still a bit cheap.
Meng Meng had filmed a video of the cake tasting house previously. Originally, it was only circulated on a domestic website. However, the attraction of sweets to humans had always been not small. Someone climbed over the wall and saw the wildly circulating Cake House. Then, it was introduced to the internet.
Of course, Yuan Zhou didn’t know about these things. Lilian’s words, however, had asked him. He didn’t expect that someone would still come to ask about The Cake House after he and Yin ya had spent such a sweet time together for so long.
“I’m sorry, The Cake House was made as a proposal gift for my fiancée. There’s only one of it. It’s a small shop, a restaurant for eating. There’s no big cake house for sale.” Yuan Zhou said.
Lilian’s eyes brightened and she almost blurted out,’she’s beautiful, rich, and can be both sweet and salty. Do you want to consider changing fiancée? the kind that only needs half a Cake House’. Fortunately, she thought of the subtleties in Chinese culture and didn’t like to make such a joke.
“Head chef Yuan, your fiancée is really a happy girl.” Lilian’s eyes were sparkling.
At first glance, one could tell that he was absolutely envious of Yin ya from the bottom of his heart. Only Yin ya expressed that she was really a happy fatty!
“Thank you,” he said. Yuan Zhou expressed his gratitude.
Lilian called Yuan Zhou head chef Yuan not because she really knew how awesome Yuan Zhou was, but because that was how Yuan Zhou was addressed on the internet, magazines, and newspapers. Therefore, it could be considered as an honorific.
“Head chef Yuan, do you sell cakes here?” Lilian asked, not giving up.
Previously, man man had already told her that Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was a place to eat and not a cake shop. However, Lilian felt that the head chef might be able to sell her a cake as an exception because of her beauty.
Man man had said that the delicious cakes she made were not even 30% as delicious as the cakes made by Yuan Zhou. Although she couldn’t imagine how delicious the cakes were, she still knew that they were very delicious.
It could be said that Lilian wasn’t only pretty, but she was also pretty.
Unfortunately, Yuan Zhou could even turn a blind eye to Jiang Changxi, who was so charming and had such a strong Queen’s aura. Compared to Jiang Changxi, Lilian was still a little inferior.
It wasn’t a matter of appearance, as each had their own merits. What was lacking was the life experience and the rich fragrance of time.
Sometimes, a beauty was not only beautiful on the surface. Since ancient times, there had been a saying in China that a beauty was not on the surface but on the bones.
However, not only was Lilian’s facial features beautiful, but she also had the elegance of a Prince and didn’t look ordinary.
Unfortunately, in Yuan Zhou’s heart, the first was the culinary skills, the second was the system, and the third was Yin ya.
“No, I didn ‘t,” Yuan Zhou said directly.
He thought about the reward from the sea King mission and immediately added,””Actually, many of our Chinese desserts are very delicious. They’re no worse than western cakes. On the contrary, there are many cakes that are better. You can try them.”
Of course, although Yuan Zhou had already mastered the pastries rewarded by the sea King, he hadn’t thought of where to serve them yet.
Most desserts took time to make, and almost every new dish would be accompanied by a matching snack, which was the system’s usual practice.
The reward of the ocean King was more like a supplement and extension of the reward of the matching snack. Many desserts that were lost or on the verge of being lost were included in the reward, which made Yuan Zhou really happy for several days.
The next time Ji Yi and the others came, he would have something new to share with them. Naturally, Yuan Zhou was very happy about such a thing.
Although the reward hadn’t been given yet, the matching snacks and desserts of various cuisines could let Lilian experience the Chinese dessert culture for Yuan Zhou.
“Okay, thank you. I’ll consider it.” Lilian was disappointed but she still thanked him politely.
After hearing that, man man pulled Lilian’s sleeve, which was the secret code that they had agreed on before, meaning that they should not disturb her anymore.
Man man did bring Lilian here, but she also thought that Lilian was just a little fangirl of Yuan Zhou. As a senior fangirl, she naturally knew the feeling of wanting to meet her idol. Therefore, she took the opportunity when Yuan Zhou might be free to bring her here to have a look.
Five minutes was enough. Any more and it would be a real disturbance. As the backbone of the queuing Committee, he would not affect the business hours.
Lilian still wanted to continue pestering her, but she was a person who kept her word. So after receiving man man’s secret signal, she reluctantly left.
“Man man, do you think the Chinese desserts that head chef Yuan mentioned are delicious? I remember that the steamed buns and mantou I ate in the past were not bad, but they were not as good as cakes and biscuits.”
As soon as Lilian stepped out of the door, she couldn’t help but ask man man. Although she had studied in China before and was quite fluent in the language, she didn’t understand many deeper meanings. In China, they ate steamed buns, deep-fried dough sticks, and soy milk the most. However, the taste was still not bad for her.
At least, compared to sandwiches, milk, and hamburgers, Lilian definitely liked cakes more.
“Lillian, I’m sure the taste of these buns made by head chef Yuan is pretty good. They’re more delicious than anything you’ve ever eaten. However, these aren’t the desserts he’s talking about. Why don’t we have lunch here at noon? I’ll introduce you to some of our Chinese desserts and you can compare them in your heart.” Man man thought for a while and suggested.
It was also because she felt that she couldn’t walk when she arrived at the store. If she didn’t eat at the store, she would be like a hero who didn’t go to the Great Wall.
Man man opened a cake shop and sold Western-style pastries. However, it didn’t hinder her recognition and love for Chinese pastries. It was just that the entry threshold of Chinese pastry was high and it was really difficult to get good grades. As for western pastry, the threshold was lower and the learning difficulty was also lower. That was why she chose to run a bakery.
“There’s an old Chinese saying that what you hear is false, but what you see is true. Man man, I think what you said is very reasonable. We should eat and see before making a comparison. ” Lilian said sternly.
If one didn’t know, they would have thought that he had decided on something important in his life with that serious expression.
Now that she had made the decision, man man took Lilian to the main store on Taoxi road for a walk before coming back to line up. She was afraid that they would not be able to make it back in time if they walked too far. Having a store here was indeed a very advantageous thing. At least, it was easier to control the time.
