Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Purple Gold Flower Card
Bai Chuwei raised an eyebrow and countered, “Is that important?”
Though Chef Cao is in the kitchen of Juxian Pavilion, he has made it clear that he’s not accepting any orders from customers, not even from those holding the restaurant’s gold cards, at least for now.
It’s said that Chef Cao is experimenting with a new recipe, and the apprentices are watching on the side, their mouths watering.
The server in charge of taking orders was also visibly distressed and was about to speak when suddenly, there was a flicker in front of him!
Bai Chuwei gracefully extended her hand, a Purple Gold Flower Card casually held between her slender index and middle fingers, and asked indifferently, “Can I place my order now?”
The server’s complexion changed dramatically, nervously taking the card with both hands for a closer look, and gasped in surprise, repeating, “Please… please go ahead.”
Everyone was taken aback: “???” What’s going on?
Bai Chuwei continued non-stop, “Braised shark fin with yellow sauce, jade shrimp, beggar’s chicken, roasted suckling pig, assorted stewed chicken…”
Bai Chuwei closed the menu and instructed, “Tell Chef Cao to make it quick.”
The server nodded nervously and quickly left the private room.
Bai Yinyin was dubious, “How could you place an order? That card just now… wait, the biggest card at Juxian Pavilion is the gold card!”
In the whole of Haicheng, there are no more than fifty holders of Juxian Pavilion’s gold card. When did a Purple Gold Flower Card come into play?
Even Boss Duan probably only has a gold card, right?
Even if Bai Yinyin is naïve, she wouldn’t think Bai Chuwei would dare to flaunt a fake card. Antique paintings and calligraphy can be fake, as some may be fooled by imitations, but who would deceive with a fake card? Bai Chuwei is no fool.
Bai Shang looked at Bai Chuwei thoughtfully and laughed, “Juxian Pavilion does have the Purple Gold Flower Card, but these rare purple cards, as far as I know… are only given to members of the Cao Family.”
For instance, Zhao Simeng, the wife of Chef Cao, has one. Bai Shang had seen it once when they were discussing business.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yinyin scoffed. That explained it. Hadn’t there been a rumor that Bai Chuwei had hooked up with Cao Yushu? This made sense now.
Bai Chuwei was being foolish, daring to show off such a card? Didn’t she know it was meant for use only by members of the Cao Family? If Chef Cao saw it, wouldn’t he think Bai Chuwei was seducing his son, and wouldn’t he be furious? How could he possibly be willing to cook? Fresh chapters posted on novelFirｅ.net
With different thoughts running through their minds, Zhao Guangming was admiring the landscape painting he held, Bai Ze was excitedly looking through an introductory manual, and Bai Guofu was contemplating how to get more health and strength-enhancing Spirit Pills from his ancestors.
About ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door of the private room.
Servers began to bring in the first dish one after the other, and the entire room was instantly filled with a rich aroma.
Everyone swallowed their saliva, and Bai Yinyin and a few others were suddenly dumbfounded.
How come the food was really served?
Bai Yinyin caught Bai Chuwei’s seemingly smiling expression, her face burning with embarrassment, she grabbed a server and questioned in shock, “What’s going on? Didn’t Chef Cao say that he’s not accepting orders from any customers right now?”
The server looked respectfully at Bai Chuwei and explained with utmost courtesy, “You’re right, guest, but Chef Cao said that Miss Bai is the only exception.”
Bai Yinyin’s smile froze, “…”
Really? This works???
Chef Cao, have you lost your mind? Your son has been ensnared by Bai Chuwei, and you’re still cooking for her? Is there no justice left?!
Bai Shang and Bai Ze exchanged glances; this new cousin’s background must be anything but ordinary.
