Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Yin Jingyao glances at the dishes which she has hardly tasted. Xia Ning’s full bowl seems harsh to her.

Yin Jingyao puts down the chopsticks and said, “Miss Zhou, do you want to hear my honest comments?”

What Yin Jingyao is implying is obvious. Gu Luan slightly freezes his smile.

Zhou Wenping mildly smiles, “Hum. Miss Yin, please tell me frankly.”

“The style of dishes is too common. The color is good, but they taste too bland. They are too sweet. It is lack of oil and heat of the pot. In my opinion, they are of the score sixty out of a hundred.”

Sixty is a barely pass score. No doubt that Yin Jingyao has added some score of “friendship” in this sixty. Everyone can understand that Yin Jingyao is extremely unsatisfied with these dishes.

“Sixty? Seriously?” Not waiting for Zhou Wenping to respond, Gu Ruoruo can’t help shouting, “Though they are not spicy, they are very delicious! In my opinion, they can have ninety-five in scoring! Sister Yin, you really have a very high standard!”

“Ruoruo!” Gu Luan calls in a low voice, “Wait for others to finish. Don’t be rude.”

Gu Ruoruo curls her lips and murmurs, “Brother Luan doesn’t like whatever I say. Hum.”

Gu Luan slightly lifts his eyebrows and says helplessly, “Miss Yin, please don’t mind. My sister is too young and frank…”

“It is all right. People are different in tastes. Little girls like sweet food. It is understandable.” Yin Jingyao deliberately shows her kindness.

If the score is given from customers, it is really a harsh one. It can mean that the restaurant should be shut down. Looking at Yin Jingyao’s dismissive expression, Zhou Wenping still smiles, “So, Miss Yin can’t accept the style of my restaurant?”

“Yes.” Yin Jingyao responds at once.

Zhou Wenping puts on a bigger smile, “Then, under what kind of circumstance, will Miss Yin accept dishes like these?”

Yin Jingyao lifts her eyebrows with an anger, “Miss Zhou, you are funny. This is not the only restaurant. Why do I have to accept it? I don’t like this one and I will go to another next time.”

“Oh. Sorry for offense.” Zhou Wenping apologizes, “Miss Yin, please don’t mind.”

“Miss Zhou, if you ask for comments from customers in this way again, I think you will get a lot of trouble.”

“Yes. I will pay attention to that. Miss Yin, thank you.” Saying this, Zhou Wenping turns to Xia Ning, “Mrs. Yi, what do you think about these dishes?”

Xia Ning blinks her eyes. She absolutely has no objections. Ever since she took the first bite, she has found the taste of the dishes familiar. She feels them very nice.

Something feels like home.

The difference is that the environment here and the layouts of the dishes bring a sense of beauty. Home style dishes of different areas are all available here. If one for each day, it will take around two months for her to taste them all.

“I think they are great.” Xia Ning affirms, “They are tasty. Cantonese like sweet foods. These dishes are suitable for their tastes. If you make them spicy, they are not Cantonese dishes.

What she said is just like a clap on Yin Jingyao’s face. Yin Jingyao is not a Cantonese.

What Xia Ning means is obvious. Zhou Wenping prepares the Cantonese style dishes. If judged by the standards of other areas, they are obviously not tasty.

Yin Jingyao grits her teeth, “Does Miss Zhou only welcome the Cantonese? If so, Director Gu and I are unnecessary people here.”

Gu Luan frowns, “Miss Yin, we can’t say like that. We may adjust ourselves under different circumstance. Pingping mentioned before that they are Cantonese Homestyle dishes and you didn’t disagree.”

Yin Jingyao finds that Gu Luan is also against her. She is very unpleased. However, Yi Yunrui is here and she can’t lose her temper. She looks at Yi Yunrui, “So, Commander Yi also thinks the dishes delicious. Don’t you?”

“If Miss Yin doesn’t like them. I have nothing to say.” Yi Yunrui responds coldly.

Yin Jingyao is shocked by Yi Yunrui’s reaction. When she is wondering how to explain, Zhou Wenping says, “It is my fault. I didn’t know that Miss Yin will come today. So, I prepared the dishes Commander Yi likes. To be honest, Commander Yi is my teacher. I learn many of these dishes from Commander Yi.”

What Zhou Wenping says surprises all the people!

Xia Ning finally understands why she feels so familiar with the taste. It is because of Yi Yunrui!

Well, she is hypoglycemic. For the benefit of her, Yi Yunrui makes all the dishes a little sweet. The dishes on the table are perfectly sweet and fresh. Every Cantonese will like them.

However, how can Yi Yunrui be Zhou Wenping’s teacher?

Did they know each other?

Aware of Xia Ning’s confusion, Yi Yunrui says, “Miss Zhou and I are kind of in the same industry. We met in a meeting and had some conversation.”

It all clicks…

“Well, I was a little surprised that the taste is similar to my husband’s style. Haha.” Xia Ning laughs.

“Hum. I hope that Mrs. Yi doesn’t mind. My association with Commander Yi is just pure friendship. I came back from abroad this time to ask Commander Yi to taste my dishes. I wonder if I can be graduate from him.”

“Miss Zhou is too polite. You invited us to come. I really appreciate that.”

Zhou Wenping mildly smiles and turns to Yin Jingyao, “Miss Yin is not used to these dishes. I am sorry for that. I will have some other special dishes of your hometown served. Please give me some comments. Will you?”

Yin Jingyao is shocked. After several seconds, she shakes her head, “There is no need. Thank you.”

Damn it! They are what Yi Yunrui likes. Why didn’t she tell it in advance?

If for the sake of Yi Yunrui, she has no problem to eat these dishes every day.

Yin Jingyao glances at Yi Yunrui secretly and finds him cold. Yin Jingyao shivers in her heart. She has the desire to slap herself.

She has been dreaming of being with Yi Yunrui. If Yi Yunrui prepares a meal for her, she will have no regret to die. Now, she says that the foods Yi Yunrui likes to eat taste bad…God. How can she give it a good explanation?

“Well…” Yin Jingyao reluctantly puts on a smile on her face, “It is not good to eat spicy foods every day. Sometimes, we can have some light food. That is good for health.”

Zhou Wenping notices all the delicate expressions on Yin Jingyao’s face. She blinks her eyes, “Hum. You are right, Miss Yin. Next time, if you still would like to come, I will correct the mistake. Thank you for giving me the lesson.”

“Well. You are welcome.”

They chat for another while. It is getting late and they leave.

Yin Jingyao sits in Gu Luan’s car. She clenches her fists tightly. It looks that her vicious eyes want to break the sky of the night.

When they left, Yi Yunrui didn’t ask about her condition even once. Anyway, she has just come back to the country. Is it so hard for him to ask her about where she is going to stay?

Yin Jingyao looks so angry as if she is borrowed millions of yuan. Gu Luan doesn’t speak to her, either. He sends Gu Ruoruo home and drives Yin Jingyao around.

“Where does Miss Yin want to go?”

Yin Jingyao curls her lips, “Send me to the best hotel around here.”

“OK.” Gu Luan responds. He remembers something and asks, “Well. Are you going to stay for some days before going home?”

“Yes.” Yes, she is going to stay “for Xia Ning” before going back home. Then, she will discuss with her sister about how to deal with the bitch Xia Ning.

“Not to offend. May I ask do you have any plan for your coming back this time?”

It seems that Gu Luan wants to start a conversation. But Yin Jingyao is not in the mood to respond to him. She is going to put an end to it while she suddenly has an idea.

“Director Gu, do you need any employees?”

Gu Luan lifts his eyebrows and his eyes sneer at her.

Yin Jingyao went abroad secretly. Few people know anything about her going abroad because of the protection of the Mayor of B City. However, it doesn’t mean that Gu Luan doesn’t know.

He is not sure about what really happened, but he vaguely knows that the second daughter of Yin’s family is not a kind person.

Even Mayor Yin is not capable enough to protect her. It is imaginable how “terribly” she did things.

What Yin Jingyao did seemed to have something to do with Xia Ning.

As a matter of fact. It is not a hard guess. Yin Jingyao must have done something to offend Yi Yunrui. Mayor Yin was afraid that Yi Yunrui might revenge on her, so he sent Yin Jingyao abroad quickly.

Based on what Yin Jingyao did and said just now, it seems that she didn’t make much progress during the two years abroad.

If such a woman enters World Era Weekly, she will be a time bomb.

In addition, from the tone of her, Gu Luan realizes that this young madam is still in conflicts with Xia Ning. If it is not because her father is the mayor, Gu Luan will never deal with this woman.

Thinking of this, Gu Luan blinks his eyes, “Do you mean the vacancies of management?”

“Yes.” Yin Jingyao puts her arms around her chest, “Anyway, I am free recently. I may work for you temporarily.”

Gu Luan smiles, “Miss Yin is flattering me. In World Era weekly, everyone works for the same purpose. We cooperate as friends equally. However, I have to mention one thing and I hope that you don’t mind.”

Yin Jingyao lifts her eyebrows, “Why? You don’t want me?”

“I don’t mean that.” Gu Luan says slowly, “In our company, the employment contract will be signed and remain valid for three years each time. If Miss Yin plans to work temporarily, you may think it over again. After all, World Era Weekly is a world-famous weekly. It has its requirements for the employees. Newcomers of both management level and normal level are all required to start from the basic work and have to pass a one-month probation before being officially employed. I am afraid that Miss Yin may not get used to that. I hope Miss Yin can think about it carefully. If you plan to work in the weekly permanently, you are warmly welcome.”

Gu Luan gives considerate but decisive speech. Yin Jingyao can’t find any reasons to talk back in an instant. As Gu Luan says, World Era Weekly is not for people to enter just because of a wish. Background doesn’t work there.

However, she is angry.

Xia Ning can work there. Why can’t she?

Thinking of this, Yin Jingyao loses her temper, “Actually, Director Gu, you don’t need to explain so much. It is not a matter of temporality or permanence. I think you just want to say that I am not as capable as Xia Ning.”
