Chapter 146 Pastry Chef 11
He explored every corner of the room, bit by bit, like a king surveying his territory.
The room has a simple overall style, mainly white, beige and light green, which makes the whole room look clean, bright and full of life.
The decorative items that can be seen everywhere are exquisite and elegant.
The floor of the small living room was covered with a thick, obviously expensive plush carpet.
The coffee table is covered with all sorts of snacks, a testament to the owner's lifestyle.
Going down to the second floor, he saw the same plush carpet on the floor, along with coffee tables, sofas, bookshelves, and other items. He could tell that most of the decorations were quite valuable, yet their owners had placed them haphazardly in various locations.
The studio door was open; Ziyue had just shown him around and said he was allowed to go in and visit.
As Chu Yijing entered the studio, he was greeted by a wall covered with various paintings.
There are sketches, watercolors, oil paintings, and various other styles.
There are flowers and birds, landscapes, and people—all kinds of themes.
Although he didn't understand painting techniques very well, he could still tell that the paintings covering the wall were very lively.
It was much better than some of the paintings he had seen in art exhibitions before.
He thought to himself: It seems that Ziyue is a very, very talented painter.
Chu Yijing admired the works in front of him with great interest. Although he did not paint them, he still felt very proud.
He didn't go to the first floor because he knew it was all used as shops.
There was a door separating the first and second floors; this was the girl's private territory, but he could stand here.
Thinking of this, Chu Yijing's heart couldn't help but pound again...
Taking a deep breath, Chu Yijing quickly made his way to the kitchen.
Since I didn't know when Ziyue would get up, I first rinsed the rice, chopped some minced meat and a preserved egg, added an appropriate amount of salt, and started cooking the porridge.
Turn the heat down to low and let it simmer slowly.
That way, once Ziyue wakes up, she can drink it directly.
After cooking the porridge, he casually picked up a book from the bookshelf and sat on the hanging chair on the balcony to read.
It wasn't until after 10 o'clock that he heard noises coming from the stairs.
Chu Yijing's eyes lit up. "Ziyue, you're awake?"
As he spoke, he went into the kitchen, poured the ingredients he had prepared into the pan, quickly made several egg and scallion pancakes, and fried two eggs.
Then, the stewed, tender, and fragrant congee with preserved egg and lean pork was also put into a bowl and quickly served on the table.
Looking at the breakfast on the table, Ziyue was still a little confused. She took a spoonful and her eyes lit up.
Delicious!!!
Ziyue looked up at the person sitting opposite her, watching her drink the porridge with expectant eyes, and praised without reservation: "The porridge is delicious, thank you for your hard work."
So please don't hesitate to do it a few more times in the future. Of course, she kept these words to herself and didn't say them out loud.
It seems he's not only good at making desserts, but also quite good at making breakfast. Her breakfast is sorted now.
Chef, got it?
Pastry chef, got it?
perfect!
Chu Yijing was secretly pleased to see that Ziyue seemed to really like it, thankfully he had learned a few tricks from his mother before.
She couldn't help but say, "Then I'll cook for you often from now on. I'll also cook some other dishes for you to try."
Ziyue nodded repeatedly, giving herself 108 thumbs up for snatching a chef and pastry chef.
After the two finished eating, Chu Yijing insisted on clearing away the dishes, leaving Ziyue no room to interfere.
By the time they finished their meal and cleaned up, it was already eleven o'clock.
"Ayi, let's go. I'll take you to the first floor to meet my employees. You'll see them often in the future anyway."
Every time he heard a girl call him A-Yi, Chu Yijing's heart would skip a beat, and then he would gently nod: "Okay."
When they got down to the first floor, they were all startled to see a big man following Ziyue down from upstairs.
"This is Li Pingping, this is Sister Meiling, and this is Brother Li Yuan."
Ziyue then pointed to Chu Yijing beside her and said, "Chu Yijing is a friend, and also the owner of the shop next door that is under renovation. He's staying here temporarily."
"Wow, that's the shop over there. I only know it's been under renovation lately, but I didn't know what kind of shop Brother Chu was planning to open."
This is the voice of Li Pingping, whose personality is the most enthusiastic and cheerful.
"Hello everyone, my name is Chu Yijing. I'm planning to open a dessert shop next door, so we'll be neighbors from now on. I hope you'll all take good care of me." He finished speaking with a bright smile.
"Hello, hello. Mr. Chu, like our boss, is young and promising." A gentle voice rang out; it was Sister Meiling's voice.
"Hello, hello." That was the honest and kind voice of Brother Yuan.
"Just treat him the same way you treat me. You'll be seeing each other every day from now on, so don't be shy," Ziyue said with a smile, trying to ease the tension.
Chu Yijing was an outgoing person, and he quickly became friends with Ziyue's employees.
Even someone as honest and simple as Brother Yuan could become his brother in a short period of time.
"This guy is pretty good at fooling people," Ziyue thought to herself.
Chu Yijing, who had successfully infiltrated the inner circle, never lost the smile on his face.
Around 2 PM, it was time for Ziyue to have lunch. Ziyue opened the food delivery app to order takeout, but Chu Yijing stopped her.
"I'll cook. Eating takeout all the time isn't good for your health."
After asking Ziyue about her preferences, Chu Yijing went back upstairs first.
As the saying goes, the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach, and he thought there was a lot of truth to that.
He must perform well.
When Ziyue came upstairs again, she saw four dishes and a soup on the table.
They all look delicious and appealing.
Sweet and sour pork ribs, garlic clams, spicy chicken, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, and a sweet fermented rice soup with glutinous rice balls.
In addition, there was a dessert, coffee cheesecake, which was soft, fluffy, small and delicate. The sweetness of the cheesecake was mixed with the rich aroma of the coffee, making it sweet but not cloying. Ziyue really liked it.
After the meal, Ziyue patted her full stomach and gave herself a big thumbs up for being quick enough to bring back a chef and pastry chef.
So for the next period of time, Chu Yijing lived comfortably next door to Ziyue.
Moreover, it also covers Ziyue's three meals a day.
Ziyue often thought that it was fortunate that she had the spiritual spring water, otherwise she would definitely have gained weight.

On Saturdays and Sundays when it gets crowded, Chu Yijing would help out at the flower shop on the first floor, and occasionally go to the shops next door to supervise the progress of the renovations.
Soon, a month had passed.
The room has been fully renovated.
All that's left is to purchase and install the necessary tools, and then we can open for business.
Before the opening, Ziyue accompanied Chu Yijing to the market several times to buy all kinds of utensils, pastry molds, and various dessert ingredients.
The dessert shop also opened for business during the New Year's Day holiday.
