Chapter 218 – You think how I've been getting through these five years?
As the group was about to enter the restaurant, Ye Qiu arrived on his electric scooter just in time.
Seeing everyone at the entrance, a flash of anger crossed his eyes, but he quickly masked it.
He hurried over and greeted them, "Grandpa, why are you all here?"
Ye Qiu's sudden appearance made the faces of the Lin family members turn grim, cursing their luck internally. Why did this bastard have to show up?
Lin Tiancheng felt his low blood pressure improve upon seeing Ye Qiu.
Recalling the embarrassing incident when this fool had an accident at home, he wished he could beat this bastard with a cane.
He might not care about his own face, but the Lin family did!
That incident had smeared the Lin family's reputation!
But seeing Wei Yangcheng there, he couldn't vent his anger and tried to keep his tone calm.
"We're here to entertain an important guest, so don't interfere. Go wherever you need to."
"Exactly, I'm afraid the restaurant will stink with you here."
"Sigh, just seeing him is nauseating. Don't ruin Grandpa Wei's mood."
Several direct descendants of the Lin family muttered quietly, all extremely displeased with Ye Qiu.
Today's dinner with Wei Yangcheng was crucial for the Lin family's future development.
They couldn't allow this bastard to mess things up!
"I'm here for a job interview. They said they're hiring a chef, and since I'm quite good at cooking, I thought I'd apply. You all carry on."
Ye Qiu said calmly, giving Lin Huanxi a reassuring look.
Indicating she needn't worry, he was here today.
But Lin Huanxi didn't notice his look at all, her mind preoccupied with wondering where her guardian angel was.
She really wanted to see him.
Even if it was just a distant glance.
"Sigh, if you can find a decent job, you might actually seem human. Hurry up and don't delay our guest."
Hearing Ye Qiu was there for a job, Lin Tiancheng's expression softened a bit.
This useless person was like a sticky candy, impossible to get rid of.
If he was willing to change and stop being a gigolo, the Lin family could save some face.
Wei Yangcheng, watching the scene unfold with amusement, thought to himself that if he were ten years younger, he'd definitely cuckold this gigolo after the dinner.
What he didn't know was that Ye Qiu had already set his sights on his daughter-in-law.
Just like how stand users attract each other.
So do scoundrels.
After the Lin family entered the private room, Ye Qiu's expression turned cold.
His plan today was simple: win over the old pervert Wei, and turn him into a pawn.
As for the Lin family, they'd just have to wait to be humiliated later!
Once inside the restaurant, the manager quickly came out to greet him.
Accompanying the manager was Butler Ye.
Having received Ye Qiu's notice, this tool of the highest order immediately came out to help Ye Qiu solve the problem.
"Hello, Young Master Ye, what can I do for you today?"
The manager shook hands with Ye Qiu, speaking very politely.
"Get me a chef's outfit. I'll be cooking shortly."
Ye Qiu said indifferently.
The manager was a bit taken aback.
He thought Young Master Ye was there to book the entire restaurant or something, but this request was unexpected.
"Alright, I'll arrange it immediately. If there's anything else you need, just let me know."
Coming to his senses, he quickly started making arrangements.
While the manager was arranging things, Butler Ye leaned over and whispered.
"Young Master Ye, the Lin family invited Wei Yangcheng for dinner today and even hired a top chef. This chef's specialty is Nine Turns Large Intestine, a dish that's been served at state banquets. Wei Yangcheng loves it."
"Nine Turns Large Intestine? That's simple."
Ye Qiu chuckled. He knew Wei Yangcheng was a gourmet, which was why he came to cook personally.
First, he'd conquer him with his cooking skills, become friends, and then gradually fulfill the old fellow's desires.
Finally, he'd make Wei Yangcheng and Liu Ruyan turn against each other.
Then, he'd secretly help Liu Ruyan deal with the old fellow, completing his plan to take over the Liu and Wei families!
"Are you confident, Young Master Ye? That chef is genuinely skilled. If not, I can have a word with him."
Butler Ye was still a bit worried, knowing the chef was truly top-notch.
"Are you underestimating me?"
Ye Qiu's face darkened instantly.
Butler Ye's face turned pale, feeling an aura of dominance emanating from Young Master Ye.
He quickly changed his tone, "No, I just wanted to be cautious. With your capabilities, how could I doubt you?"
Ye Qiu snorted in displeasure and said indifferently.
"Do you think I've spent the past five years just being a gigolo? I cook every day at the Lin family. How could I lose in culinary skills?"
"You're brilliant, Young Master Ye."
Butler Ye praised sincerely.
"Alright, I'll head to the kitchen. Contact me if anything comes up."
With a confident look, Ye Qiu turned and headed to the kitchen, silently waiting for the right moment to make his entrance.
In the restaurant's most luxurious private room, the Lin family and Wei Yangcheng had already taken their seats.
Wei Yangcheng was seated at the head, with Lin Tiancheng beside him.
"Lin Huanxi, why don't you sit next to Grandpa Wei and help pour drinks?"
"Alright."
Lin Huanxi reluctantly sat down, feeling quite helpless.
Seeing the beautiful Lin Huanxi, whose looks rivaled his daughter-in-law, sit beside him, Wei Yangcheng's eyes narrowed with a smile.
This kind of beauty, with a hint of mature charm, was his favorite type.
Unfortunately, age had caught up with him, and he was increasingly powerless in that regard.
He could only lament internally about having the will but not the strength.
"Huanxi, order whatever you like."
He pushed a menu towards Lin Huanxi, speaking softly.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".
