Chapter 654: “Combat Power” is off the charts

"Mr. Xia?
Are you going to Beijing too? "

The moment Chu Yunfeng heard the voice, he already knew who it was. When he looked up, Mr. Xia looked at him with a smile on his face, and a hint of concern.

"Yes, I originally planned to ask Mu Qing to go shopping with me today, but I called her last night and found out that she had gone to the capital to participate in the competition.

Then I happened to go back, but I told her to come to the house for dinner in the evening and ask her to call you together.

If you have nothing to do tonight, come to Auntie's house to prepare delicious food for you. "

Mr. Xia sat down next to Chu Yunfeng, and did not forget to pull him to sit down with him. His movements were natural and his expression was very kind.

"Uh~! Let me ask Mu Qing if she is free at night."

Chu Yunfeng's words were the same as Mu Qing's answer, which made Mr. Xia laugh immediately.

"Then it's settled. Mu Qing said she was free in the evening."

Mr. Xia "finally decided" the matter, leaving Chu Yunfeng with no excuse to refuse.
When Chu Yunfeng was still in a "trance", Mr. Xia continued to ask: "By the way, I know the taste of that girl Mu Qing. What about you, what do you usually like to eat?"

"Me, I can eat anything, I'm not picky."

Chu Yunfeng seemed to find that he couldn't stand Mr. Xia's "continuous" questioning method, and his information about eating crabs was immediately "exposed".

"What about wine? What kind of wine do you like to drink?

Liquor?

wine?

Rice wine?

Whiskey or beer?
Oh~!I forgot, the white wine produced by your winery tastes very good, so let’s go for the red wine. I have a few bottles in stock that you can try. "

Mr. Xia's speaking rhythm changed very quickly, and Chu Yunfeng had no chance every time he wanted to express his opinion.

"Oh~! And, where's the fruit?
What fruit do you usually like to eat? "

Mr. Xia's series of questions were like a curious baby, seemingly asking about Chu Yunfeng's preferences, but in the eyes of the little secretary, it seemed like he was prying into privacy?

Isn’t Mr. Xia such a gossip and nagging person?

Why are your attitudes towards this young man so different?

This was very different from the image of a serious and taciturn boss in her own eyes. Especially Xiaolu felt very funny when she saw Chu Yunfeng's "clumsy" look unable to resist.

But this picture looks a little warm, and this style of painting is indeed a bit strange.

"President Hou, are you here?"

Mr. Xia kept asking questions. At first, it only related to what to eat for dinner today. Later, it gradually spread to his own food, clothing, housing, transportation, and hobbies.

Chu Yunfeng found that it was a bit "difficult" to deal with it. On the one hand, he felt a little bit happy at Mr. Xia's question, but there was a faint feeling of resistance in his heart.

Therefore, such a contradictory mentality is naturally a bit passive. Seeing President Hou was like seeing a savior, and he immediately stood up and waved.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Xia? We haven't seen each other in almost ten years, right?

What, you know Xiao Chu? "

The President Hou had just entered the hall, when he heard Chu Yunfeng calling him enthusiastically, he suddenly felt a little strange in his heart, when did this guy treat him so enthusiastically?
"Hello, President Hou, Xiao Chu and I have some connections. Are you going back to the capital too?"

Mr. Xia did not directly describe the relationship between Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing, but used the word "origin" to describe it. This sounded somewhat different to what he meant by others.

"Yes, I am traveling with Xiao Chu. Why, are you also going back to the capital?"

President Hou glanced at Xiao Lu next to Mr. Xia and judged that she should be the secretary, while Chu Yunfeng looked a little unnatural on the side. What is going on?
"Yes, I have made an appointment with Mu Qing and Xiao Chu to come to our house for dinner tonight. If President Hou is okay, can we come too?"

President Xia mentioned this matter again and invited President Hou, which made President Hou feel more and more unusual.

From these words, it was easy to tell that Mr. Xia and Mu Qing knew each other and had invited them to his home.

From this point of view, this relationship must be very unusual, and it seems to have the feeling of a family dinner.

Suddenly, President Hou seemed to remember something?
After thinking about Chu Yunfeng's slightly embarrassed look just now, President Hou immediately made up some pictures in his mind.

Since this is a family banquet, it is definitely inappropriate to attend by yourself. The purpose of Mr. Xia's invitation should be.
"Haha~! Thanks for the invitation, Mr. Xia, but I've been away for a long time and I still have a lot of things to do when I get back. Let's do it next time.

However, Xiao Chu has nothing to do after the game today. Don’t forget to buy a gift when you go to Mr. Xia’s house for dinner. You need to be more thoughtful about this etiquette! "

After President Hou finished speaking, he smiled at Mr. Xia, and then made a "you understand" look with Chu Yunfeng.

Seeing Chu Yunfeng's face, which was quite happy to see him a second ago, he was instantly stunned, and Mr. Xia's business-like smile suddenly brightened.

President Hou muttered "yes" silently in his heart. Sure enough, he guessed it right and grinned at Mr. Xia.

Young man, just go and have a meal. Don't thank me too much for my help.
"Well, I know President Hou that you are a busy man, but please don't refuse next time."

Mr. Xia's face was filled with a thoughtful smile, and he nodded repeatedly in response to President Hou's "assist".

"No problem, I'll definitely come to you when I have time. If you haven't changed your boarding pass yet, let's go. Once you change it, go to the security check. It's almost time."

As soon as the President Hou finished speaking, Chu Yunfeng immediately came over and grabbed his luggage, and "sticked" him tightly to the service desk.

"You change first, I'll look for the ID."

The four of them lined up together. After it was their turn, Chu Yunfeng gave up his seat, but President Hou looked for his ID.

"Oh well!"

Chu Yunfeng did not doubt that he was there. When he saw President Hou rummaging here and there, he put his ID card on the service desk.

When he saw that Chu Yunfeng was about to finish the process, President Hou said to Mr. Xia who was standing behind him: "Hey, this certificate seems to be in the box, I have to look for it again.

Mr. Xia, you come first. "

hiss~!

After Chu Yunfeng heard this, he turned around instantly and saw only the back of President Hou and a look of surprise on Mr. Xia's face.

"Oh~! Well, then I'll be blunt, thank you."

What Mr. Xia said is also very interesting. It seems that there is no need to say "thank you" when people change their boarding pass first? !
Sure enough, it seems that Mr. Xia is a bit unusual towards Chu Yunfeng. I just remembered that Mr. Xia seemed to have learned cooking with Mu Qing's mother. No wonder his attitude towards Chu Yunfeng is different.

This should be a bit like the mood of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.

Forget it, I'll just be a good person and let Xiao Chu, a guy who rarely feels maternal love, have a good experience.

Comrade Xiao Chu, don't thank me too much when you come down. This old comrade's "assist" is also very powerful.

President Hou continued to look for his ID, and when Mr. Xia was halfway through the formalities, he "touched" it from the innermost part of his clothes.

"Ouch, it turned out to be here. My memory is getting worse and worse, haha!"

President Hou saw the suspicious look Chu Yunfeng cast towards him and seemed to not believe him.

Hi~!

Why is this kid so stupid?
The old comrade helped you so much, why didn't he give a grateful look, instead he looked a little embarrassed and discouraged?

When the little secretary put his ID card up, he was keenly aware that the atmosphere at the scene seemed to have changed a lot.

The three of them stood aside waiting for them. Chu Yunfeng, who was standing in the middle, looked a little embarrassed. On the contrary, President Hou and Mr. Xia, who were standing on both sides of him, were talking and laughing.

It seems that these two people have been friends for many years, but why do they have to chat with someone apart when they meet, but the person in the middle doesn't give up their place?
After the security check, we didn’t sit in the departure hall for a while before boarding the plane. After the boarding announcement rang, everyone started queuing up.

There were a lot of people. After everyone rushed forward, Chu Yunfeng and President Hou were at the front, while Mr. Xia and Xiaolu were at the back.

"President Hou, sit over here!"

After getting on the plane, Chu Yunfeng found his seat according to the boarding pass and found that President Hou was sitting opposite him.

There are two seats on my side and three seats on the opposite side.
"Well~! You can't sit around in this seat. My seat is here. It's clearly written on the boarding pass. How about I give you the boarding pass and check it for me?"

After President Hou finished speaking, he actually handed over the boarding pass. Chu Yunfeng was stunned for a moment, with "???" written all over his face.

Aren’t we traveling together?It seems like someone said this just now, right?

Of course Chu Yunfeng would not accept the card, but he did not want to say no, and the atmosphere became awkward.

However, this atmosphere was immediately interrupted, because Mr. Xia had already walked over.

"Hey, Xiao Chu and I are sitting together. It just so happens that I still have some things to say to him that I haven't finished talking to him just now. We can talk slowly along the way."

As soon as Mr. Xia finished speaking, Chu Yunfeng felt his scalp tingle instantly, and he still felt a little overwhelmed by Mr. Xia's way of questioning and answering before.

"Xiao Chu, what are you still doing? Help Mr. Xia put the luggage on it?"

Seeing Chu Yunfeng's somewhat depressed expression, President Hou felt a lot of contempt in his heart. You are so stupid that you don't even show off in front of your "mother-in-law".

"Come on, give it to me!"

Chu Yunfeng, who had "accepted his fate", took the box from Mr. Xia and helped Xiaolu put it up behind him.

Then he began to "enjoy" Mr. Xia's "care" along the way. From takeoff to landing, Mr. Xia seemed to have endless things to say, which shocked Xiaolu in particular.

Is this still my big boss?
How come your style changes so quickly?
She looked like an aunt next door who cared about trivial things in daily life. Not to mention Chu Yunfeng, even I felt my scalp numb from hearing this.

If she hadn't been paying attention to what President Xia had to say, Xiaolu really didn't want to cheer up and listen, so when the plane landed, she felt a little "sympathized" with Chu Yunfeng
"Mr. Xia, if we have anything to do, we'll leave first."

President Hou waved his hand and said goodbye to Mr. Xia and Xiaolu.

"Okay, Xiao Chu, remember to come home for dinner tonight. I will buy vegetables right now and cook crabs for you tonight."

Mr. Xia smiled happily, finally figuring out Chu Yunfeng's preferences, and now he couldn't wait to go to the vegetable market to buy some.

"Uh~! Okay, okay!"

After waving his hand and getting into the car that came to greet him with President Hou, Chu Yunfeng finally let out a long breath.

Finally out of the "claws", I suddenly felt relaxed, but when I thought about going to dinner at night, I became a little worried.

"Mr. Xia, are we going to the vegetable market now?"

Xiaolu was very curious about why Mr. Xia invited Chu Yunfeng to his house so kindly, but the boss didn't say anything, so he naturally kept his doubts in his heart.

"I'll go to the vegetable market later. I'll go to the bathroom first, but I'm so suffocated."

Seeing Chu Yunfeng and the others leave, President Xia immediately frowned with a smile on his face. In order to say a few more words to Chu Yunfeng on the plane, he didn't even go to the bathroom.

Xiaolu suddenly found that there were many more black lines on her head. Is this really her big boss?
At the scene of the [-]st National Hotel Industry Vocational Skills Competition of the Huaxia Skills Competition, Chu Yunfeng and his plane had already started for some time when they landed.

The competition is divided into individual cooking competition and cooking team competition.

Originally, the opening ceremony was supposed to be hosted by President Hou, but something delayed it, so the Vice President announced the start of the game.

This is a national competition, and each province is selected after a preliminary round, so not only are there a lot of people, but they also have strong personal abilities and cooking skills.

"What about Xiao Chu, why didn't you see him?"

President Xiong naturally came to the venue. As the person in charge of Sichuan cuisine, he naturally asked Mu Qing when he saw it.

"He just got off the plane and is rushing over."

Mu Qing was holding her mobile phone in her hand, with a trace of anxiety on her face. She seemed a little worried about the progress of the competition.

"Isn't this nonsense? Why don't you pay any attention to this game?
More than 300 people participated in this competition, and many people from hotels came two days in advance. Why didn’t you take it seriously? "

President Xiong was a little angry. He just turned around and saw that other people's teamwork was very harmonious and many high-quality dishes had been prepared.

As for Xingchen, we haven't seen a decent dish yet, and the key figure, Chu Yunfeng, hasn't even shown up yet.

"President Hou had something to do with him last night, so we came over first. He is rushing over with President Hou at the moment."

Mu Qing was also troubled. Who asked President Hou to have trouble with Chu Yunfeng at this time?

"President Hou, it's no wonder that you haven't shown up this morning. It seems like something really happened. Then hurry up and remind Xiao Chu. This team competition can't be delayed any longer."

Xiong Huichang flattened his mouth, and there seemed to be no good way except to ask Mu Qing to urge him.

"Okay, thank you President Xiong."

After Mu Qing saw President Xiong leaving, she waved her hand holding the phone twice and silently said in her heart: "Hurry up, come here quickly!"

If you didn’t come here, you wouldn’t have known that the national competition was indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Many exquisite dishes were presented one by one. If Chu Yunfeng didn’t arrive in time, he might really lose his reputation.

Just wait for Chu Yunfeng to come over and show off his skills.
