C408 Priceless Cake
"Nothing, I was just talking to Elder Sister Lan about a movie." Wu Tian quickly put away his rogue smile and explained in all seriousness.
Shen Xue's face turned stiff as she asked with jealousy, "You're lying on the bed without any clothes, talking to her about movies?"
"This …"
Wu Tian looked down and found that he was indeed not wearing any clothes.
"If I don't come, will you put on a good show in bed?"
"Xue, don't talk nonsense." Wu Tian coughed dryly and said with a smile, "Xue, Elder Sister Lan, can you go out first and let me put on my clothes?"
Shen Xue snorted and stomped out of the room.
Huang Lan had a strange smile on her face as she followed him out.
As soon as they left the room, they looked at each other with hostility.
After they looked at each other for a short moment, Shen Xue couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing in Wu Tian's room?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Huang Lan replied haughtily.
"I didn't expect you to be so despicable. You actually ran into Wu Tian's room so early in the morning to lure him."
"As I said, this has nothing to do with you."
"Huang Lan, I know you like Wu Tian, but I hope you won't use underhanded means." Shen Xue gritted her teeth and warned angrily, "If you have the ability, then let's compete openly."
"What's there to compete for? I'm Wu Tian's woman." Having said so, Huang Lan turned around and left with her long legs.
"You …"
Hearing this, Shen Xue was furious. She barged into the room again and asked Wu Tian, "Did you and Huang Lan have that kind of relationship already?"
"Of course not." Seeing that Xue was so angry, Wu Tian pointed at the ceiling and said, "I swear on the lamp, Elder Sister Lan and I are clear as day. Nothing ever happened."
"Huang Lan said she slept with you."
"Elder Sister Lan is joking with you."
"That woman is really annoying." Shen Xue quickly calmed down. She also thought that Huang Lan was intentionally trying to infuriate her and then completely give up on Wu Tian.
"Elder Sister Lan usually likes to joke around, so don't take it to heart."
"Stay away from that woman." Shen Xue changed her tone and said gently, "Come, let's go downstairs to eat. Take me to the restaurant after the meal."
"Don't you usually go to the restaurant at 9 o'clock? Why are you so early today?"
"Yesterday, there was a customer who ordered 2 million yuan worth of pastries in the restaurant. The requirements are very high, so I have to do it myself." Shen Xue explained patiently.
Only when she was jealous would she become angry like a giant frog, and her usually gentle appearance was especially sweet and generous.
"Who's so rich that they can order two million yuan in pastry all at once?" Wu Tian couldn't help but exclaim.
There were a lot of rich people these days, but people who could order pastries with a few million were indeed rare.
"It's a girl, her name seems to be Shangguan Wan'er." Shen Xue thought for a moment before giving this answer.
"Shangguan Wan'er?" Wu Tian was very surprised, but when he mentioned this name, he frowned.
Last night, he was almost smashed by that girl when she drove a car. He didn't expect her to order several million RMB cake in his restaurant.
"What is it? Do you know the girl? "
"No, I just met her once."
"What a coincidence." Shen Xue didn't ask any further. She looked at the time and urged, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's hurry up and go eat."
"Come, let's go eat." Wu Tian accompanied Shen Xue downstairs in a hurry. After eating a few bites, they headed towards Fuyuan Restaurant.
The restaurant was still bustling with people, the customers were all waiting in line for their meal.
Upon seeing Shen Xue's appearance, the guests all wanted to order their dishes, hoping to be able to enjoy Chef Shen's culinary skills.
However, Shen Xue was very busy today. After pushing away all the guest orders, she started to busy make the 2 million RMB cake.
Since there weren't any important classes in the morning, Wu Tian decided not to go to school and stayed with Shen Xue in the kitchen.
At this moment, Shen Xue's attention was fully focused on making the cake. Her movements were agile and skilled. After more than a thousand procedures and more than three hours of meticulous carving, she had finally finished the 2 million RMB pastry.
Actually, the cake itself wasn't worth much. Adding the ingredients, it was only worth a few tens of thousands of yuan. The profit was more than a million yuan.
It was the first time since the restaurant opened for business that it had made such an expensive cake.
The cake itself was just a form of publicity, or perhaps a gimmick. It didn't matter whether or not someone bought it. What mattered was that Shen Xue's cooking skills were worth the price.
"It's a success." Shen Xue put down her carving knife and slumped back in her chair.
She looked at her masterpiece on the counter and felt quite satisfied. Her lips curled up in a pleased smile.
"Chef Shen, you've worked hard. Come, I'll help you wipe your sweat." Wu Tian took out a tissue and helped Shen Xue wipe her sweat.
She had been working with the carving knife for several hours, and she was afraid that her legs would be weak from standing.
"You know what? I like to make delicious food the most. I feel very proud to see myself using my sweat to make these exquisite foods." Shen Xue was like a child, a brilliant smile on her face.
"Xue, you look so beautiful when you're working seriously."
Shen Xue pursed her lips into a smile and said with her face raised, "I made two million for you in a few hours. How are you going to thank me?"
"Then I'll reward you 20 million."
"No."
"Then I'll give you half of the shares in Fuyuan Restaurant."
"No."
"Then what do you want?"
"I …" Shen Xue opened her mouth, but in the end, she was too embarrassed to say what she wanted to say.
Wu Tian probably understood Lili's meaning and quickly changed the topic, "Let's wrap the pastries quickly and notify the guests to come and get them."
"Alright!" Shen Xue nodded and personally took out a gift box to carefully wrap the cake.
When the package was finished, she called the guests herself, took them out of time, and asked the restaurant to take the cake to Zero.
If it was just a simple meal, the restaurant definitely wouldn't send them out.
However, this time, it was 2 million RMB worth of luxurious food. Naturally, the restaurant had to break the rules and deliver the food according to the customer's request.
Originally, Shen Xue was going to deliver the dishes herself, but she was stopped by Wu Tian: "Xue, Zero Restaurant is a little chaotic. It's better if you don't go."
Considering how messy Zero Bar was and the fact that the guest was Ouyang Lili, he was worried that she would be bullied. That was why he didn't want Xue to serve the meal.
"Then who will send this?" Shen Xue actually didn't want to go over, mainly because she didn't want to interact with that unruly and headstrong girl from a rich family.
"So it's like this. I just happened to be passing by the Zero Bar when I got back to school. I'll take it there." Wu Tian took the initiative to take over the matter.
He wanted to take this opportunity to meet with Shangguan Wan'er, and try to find out the truth of Shengshi Group from her mouth. As the saying goes, understanding the enemy is the way to defeat the enemy.
"Alright!"
Shen Xue, on the other hand, didn't have any objections. She merely warned him, "You must be careful not to damage it."
