Su Lanxin had almost not slept all night. At five in the morning, she began to dress up in her room. She also notified Mei Ru, who was not fully awake yet, to get up and start getting ready.
Secretary Mei Ru received the call and naturally did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. She quickly contacted the other party according to the number Su Lanxin gave her yesterday.
After agreeing on the time and place with the other party, Mei Ru quickly washed up, dressed, and rushed to Su Lanxin's room.
Almost at the same time when Mei Ru stood outside the door, the door was opened from the inside and Su Lanxin had finished dressing up.
Without letting the secretary Mei Ru enter the room, Su Lanxin led the secretary and asked, "Have you contacted them? Where is the other party?"
Mei Ru immediately said, "I've already contacted him. He's on the highway and it will take him about 20 minutes to get off."
Su Lanxin glanced at her watch, then said with some dissatisfaction: "Too slow."
Secretary Mei Ru thought for a moment and said, "Boss Su, we actually have enough time."
Su Lanxin turned her head and glanced at the secretary. There was not much blame in her eyes. She just examined the secretary.
Then Su Lanxin said, "Find someone to wait for them at the highway exit, and then take them to Gujie Kindergarten. We will go directly to the kindergarten to prepare."
Secretary Mei Ru was a little surprised. She glanced at the watch on her wrist and said, "But President Su, it's only half past five."
Su Lanxin ignored him and said directly: "Notify Chen Wei and ask him to meet us in the parking lot downstairs."
The secretary didn't dare to say anything more because she understood that President Su had already made a decision and would not allow anyone to say anything, let alone question it.
Mei Ru quickly called Chen Wei and asked him to wait in the hotel parking lot.
What surprised Mei Ru was that the chef was actually very sober and agreed directly.
This shows that the chef has been prepared for a long time.
Sure enough, in the parking lot, Chen Wei today no longer had his usual cynical and unruly look. He was wearing a very decent chef's uniform and looked very serious.
Seeing Su Lanxin leading her secretary Mei Ru, Chen Wei stepped forward and asked, "You said they would arrange it for us. Has it been arranged now?"
Su Lanxin thought for a moment and said, "Not yet. The vehicles over there are still on the highway, but we should be able to make it in time. You can rest assured that everything will be arranged strictly according to the standards of the company's kitchen, and the ingredients will be delivered at the same time. You just need to prepare well."
Chen Wei looked at Su Lanxin and said, "You should know that cooking requires time to prepare. It is impossible to arrange your time like this."
Su Lanxin said firmly: "You need time, and Feng Yifan also needs time, so this is the fairest thing to do. You both must cook the food properly at noon when the children have lunch."
Chen Wei was somewhat helpless: "You are really too crazy."
Su Lanxin said seriously: "This is not madness, this is what we must face. This is an absolutely fair competition, you must win for me."
Chen Wei sighed and said, "Okay, let's go now."
Afterwards, Su Lanxin led her secretary Mei Ru and Chen Wei into the car. The car drove out of the hotel parking lot and headed for the kindergarten west of the old street.
When Su Lanxin and Chen Wei rushed to the kindergarten together.
Feng Yifan actually wakes up quite early in the morning.
However, he was not nervous about today's cooking competition. He still got up quietly, then went downstairs to the kitchen alone.
After washing up in the changing room in the back kitchen, he started to get busy in the kitchen.
Today is his daughter’s birthday, which is the most important thing to Feng Yifan.
So at breakfast in the morning, Feng Yifan would give his daughter a surprise so that she could feel the joyful atmosphere of her birthday all day long.
So Feng Yifan quickly started working in the kitchen, preparing a very delicious breakfast for his daughter.
I used a heart-shaped circle to fry a heart-shaped egg for my daughter. My daughter was born in the year of the sheep, so I made a lamb-shaped bun for her.
Finally, put all of these in a lunch box and turn it into the shape of a lamb's head.
After such careful and meticulous preparation, I kept my daughter's breakfast warm in the warmer.
Afterwards, Feng Yifan opened the back door of Su Ji’s kitchen, left Su Ji through the back door, and rushed to his daughter’s kindergarten alone.
At almost the same time, Feng Yifan arrived at the gate of the kindergarten and met Su Lanxin and Chen Wei who had arrived by car.
The two sides met in front of the kindergarten, and both Su Lanxin and Chen Wei were a little surprised.
Feng Yifan was not surprised, because he knew Su Lanxin's character and knew that at this time, she would definitely come early.
"Aunt and uncle are here so early too?"
Su Lanxin came back to her senses and heard Feng Yifan calling Chen Wei "uncle". She turned her head and glanced at Chen Wei.
Chen Wei faced Su Lanxin's gaze calmly, without any retreat or avoidance.
This made Su Lanxin feel very dissatisfied.
But Feng Yifan spoke first: "Let's go in first. Didn't Auntie say that she has already negotiated with the kindergarten? Isn't it better to let her know so early?"
When Feng Yifan was standing at the entrance of the kindergarten and talking, his voice naturally alarmed the guard.
The kindergarten's guard walked out from the gate, looked at the people standing at the door, and was a little surprised to see Feng Yifan.
"Are you Feng Ruoruo's father? What are you doing here so early?"
Feng Yifan responded with a smile: "Hello, I'm Feng Ruoruo's father. I came here so early because I agreed with the head teacher that I would make lunch for the children who are celebrating Children's Day in the kindergarten today, so I had to come here early to prepare it."
The guard was a little surprised when he heard this: "Are you here to do this? The director said it seemed to be sponsored by a catering company?"
At this time, Secretary Mei Ru also hurried forward at Su Lanxin's signal.
"Oh, hello, I'm from the catering group. We've already talked to the head teacher. We know that the snacks made by Mr. Feng are very popular among the children, so we invited Mr. Feng to join us."
After taking the business card handed over by Meiru, the guard looked at it carefully and said, "Oh, it really is."
The guard then opened the side door and let the group enter the kindergarten.
After everyone went in, the guard locked the door again and led Feng Yifan and the others into the kindergarten and walked towards the kindergarten kitchen where lunch was usually prepared for the children.
"Usually, we also have special chefs who prepare lunch for the children. They are all very professional chefs who take the children's nutrition into consideration and the taste is also very good."
Listening to the guard introducing as he walked, Feng Yifan naturally understood that the other party was introducing him.
Because Feng Yifan is not only the cook today, but also the parent of kindergarten children.
So the security guard made this introduction to reassure Feng Yifan, the father of the child, that the meals in the kindergarten are usually very good, clean, hygienic and nutritious.
Feng Yifan also responded with a smile: "Uncle, you don't need to say so much. Ruoruo told us all this at home. Ruoruo said that the lunch in the kindergarten tastes very good and she likes it very much."
Hearing Feng Yifan say this, the guard smiled and said, "Feng Ruoruo's father, to be honest, I also like the food in the kindergarten cafeteria, but it's a pity that there is only one meal a day."
Feng Yifan heard this and said, "If you want to stay to keep watch at night, you can go to our house for dinner. It's Su Ji on the ancient street next door. Have you heard of it?"
The guard immediately responded, "Oh, Su Ji, I know it, it's a very old restaurant. So you are the chef of Su Ji? Then your cooking must be very delicious. No wonder the children in Feng Ruoruo's class like to eat the snacks you make for them."
Su Lanxin watched Feng Yifan chatting enthusiastically with the security guard. Her expression was a little complicated and she felt it was very strange.
Chen Wei found it very interesting. He actually wanted to go over and chat with her, but because Su Lanxin was there, he didn't dare to go over and chat.
I finally stepped into the kindergarten kitchen. The guard opened the door and turned on the lights.
I have to say that although the kindergarten cafeteria is not big, it is very clean and tidy.
Thinking that this is where lunch is usually prepared for the children, Feng Yifan is very satisfied with the appearance of the cafeteria.
Regardless of how the food is prepared in the canteen, at least the canteen can be guaranteed to be clean and tidy, so the lunch prepared for the children must also be clean and hygienic.
As a parent of a kindergarten child, the first requirement for my child’s lunch is naturally that it is clean and hygienic.
Next is to consider the nutritional balance, and finally maybe think about whether it suits the child’s taste.
Of course, Feng Ruoruo is a sensible girl and she is not picky about food.
Even now that her father is back and he cooks delicious meals, the little girl still finishes her lunch obediently when she is in kindergarten.
Moreover, judging from what Feng Yifan said about the kindergarten lunch when his daughter came home, the lunch provided by the kindergarten should be quite delicious, at least most children can accept it.
Feng Yifan and Chen Wei went into the kindergarten cafeteria together and observed carefully.
The two of them said almost in unison: "Yes, the facilities are complete."
After the two people said it in unison, they looked at each other. For a moment, they were really a little surprised.
The guard looked at the two of them and asked curiously, "Who of you is the chef for this Children's Day at the kindergarten?"
Feng Yifan and Chen Wei pointed at each other almost at the same time: "Him."
This scene made the guard a little confused again.
Mei Ru, the secretary who was following behind Su Lanxin, couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene.
But just after she laughed, she saw Su Lanxin turned around and glared at her, so Mei Ru quickly stopped laughing and dared not show any smile at all.
Su Lanxin then looked at Feng Yifan and Chen Wei and said, "Any one of you can be the chef, as long as you don't forget what the key point of today is."
After hearing this, the guard looked at this group of people and felt that they were a little strange.
Finally, the guard came up to Feng Yifan and whispered, "Feng Ruoruo's father, what is your relationship with them? Are these people really reliable?"
Feng Yifan listened to the security guard and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, they are absolutely trustworthy. This boss is my wife's aunt, and Feng Ruoruo's great aunt."
Someone pointed at Chen Wei and introduced him: "Who is this? He used to be Feng Ruoruo's great-uncle, yes, once."
Hearing Feng Yifan deliberately emphasize the word "once" at the end, Chen Wei was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to say something, but seeing Su Lanxin's expression, he didn't say much.
Su Lanxin finally said: "Don't worry, for the sake of the children's health, we will definitely strictly ensure the safety of the food, and we will also ensure the quality of the food. Even if there are any problems, your kindergarten will not be held responsible."
The guard finally nodded: "Okay, then I'll leave this place to you."
Su Lanxin gave the secretary a look, and the secretary quickly had a follow-up conversation with the security guard.
After the secretary and the guard left, Su Lanxin looked at Feng Yifan and Chen Wei and said, "You two, I hope you don't forget today's theme."
Feng Yifan said directly: "Don't worry, the theme is Children's Day, and it's also our Ruoruo's birthday."
Without waiting for Su Lanxin to speak, Feng Yifan said to Chen Wei, "Uncle, I may need to tell you something. I have to accompany Ruoruo today, so you may need to preside over the cooking of the children's main meals. Of course, don't worry, the senior sister and my apprentice will assist you."
After hearing this, Su Lanxin looked at Feng Yifan and said, "What do you mean? Are you admitting defeat?"
Feng Yifan smiled and replied: "No, I'm just worried that I won't have enough time to prepare so many meals for the children, so I need my uncle to be more busy. Of course, I will compete with my uncle for the main dishes."
Before Su Lanxin opened her mouth to object, Chen Wei had already agreed.
"Sure, no problem. You can stay with Ruoruo for a while. We can take care of the kitchen first. But if that's the case, we don't need a lot of manpower. With Shi Jiahui, your apprentice, Tan Xueli, and some kitchen helpers from Fujinglou, we will have enough manpower."
Su Lanxin suddenly felt something was wrong. These two guys, who were obviously rivals, were actually cooperating openly in front of her.
But what surprised Feng Yifan and Chen Wei was that Su Lanxin did not get angry because of this scene.
Su Lanxin watched the two of them discuss quietly, and finally she said: "Don't forget the competition between you. Even if one of you can't cook a dish, the final result is valid."
Feng Yifan naturally understood that these words were meant for him, so he smiled nonchalantly: "Don't worry, auntie, the result will surely satisfy all of us."
Su Lanxin glanced at Feng Yifan, then said, "I hope we can all be satisfied."
After saying that, Su Lanxin turned around and walked out of the kindergarten kitchen without staying.
Feng Yifan and Chen Wei were left alone, and when they were face to face, neither of them was at all embarrassed to speak first.
Finally, Chen Wei said, "Don't worry. After today, I won't let Lan Xin cause trouble for you anymore. I will also try my best to give Ruoruo a good birthday."
Feng Yifan looked at Chen Wei, smiled and responded: "I hope it will come true. I would like to thank my great-uncle on behalf of Ruoruo."
After that, Feng Yifan did not stay here, but made an appointment with the senior sister and the little apprentice to come over at 7 o'clock. Then he left the kindergarten and quickly ran all the way back to Su Ji.
As soon as I opened the door to the kitchen, my daughter's voice rang out: "Dad, where have you been?"
