Senior, don't be afraid, I'll protect you.

The whole week was spent in intense review.

The four of them stopped pretending on May 515th.

Showdown.

They were all rolled up.

For the first time since the start of the semester, the entire dormitory was completely silent and focused on studying when everyone was present.

It's not surprising that this happened in the last week of the semester.

While everyone else was reviewing, Li Haoyang was the only one doing practice questions.

Seeing this, Luo Ye asked in confusion, "Coach, where did you get this question from?"

"The teacher gave me an electronic copy and asked me to complete it, saying that the questions on the final exam would be similar to this, so I printed it out and did it."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye exclaimed in surprise, "The class monitor is really nice; he has such a good relationship with the teacher."

"Are you sure? I'm always working myself to the bone. The happiest part of university life is the experience, and I had a terrible experience," Li Haoyang said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye also sighed.

"Hey kid, don't sigh in front of me. You're dating the school beauty!" Wang Dachui roared.

Shen Qiao was still studying, oblivious to everything else, focusing solely on her studies.

Luo Ye studied in his dormitory in the morning and in the family dormitory building in the afternoon.

After all, his senior sister stayed at school because of him, and he couldn't let her be bored.

Qin Yuwen went home after finishing her exam.

Her family's restaurant is located in the center of Jiangcheng City. Although it is neither too big nor too small, it is one of the top Michelin Black Pearl restaurants in Jiangcheng.

It's called [Magnolia Private Kitchen].

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that her family owns a mine.

As a result, Qin Yuwen's palate became extremely picky. The reason she came to Su Baizhou's place for meals every day was because she found the food in Jiangda's canteen unpalatable.

In her words, Su Baizhou's cooking is just as good as her family's head chef's.

She even suggested that Su Baizhou cook at her house after graduation, but Su Baizhou vetoed the idea.

A week passed quickly, and for Luo Ye, the last weekend of the semester had arrived.

Seniors have long since left for internships, and juniors and sophomores have already finished their exams and are on winter break. Only freshmen and a very small number of senior students remain on campus.

In other words, Jiangnan University now has almost only first-year students.

Luo Ye did not study on the last weekend.

To be honest, these two days won't make a difference in reviewing. If I'm going to fail in the end, even if I study like crazy these two days, I'll still fail.

If I don't study at all these two days, I still won't fail the course.

Luo Ye doesn't plan to take the postgraduate entrance exam, so his goal for the final exams is simply to pass.

At this moment, Luo Ye arrived at the family building and stood next to the pink chopped chili fish head, waiting for the fairy senior to come down from above.

Today, Qin Yuwen invited them to have a meal at her family's restaurant, saying it was her treat.

Since it's a treat, Luo Ye won't stand on ceremony.

Today, my fairy-like senior was wearing a black down jacket, loose black jeans, and Martin boots. She also wore a black scarf.

All in black.

The senior is very cool.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

Turn on navigation.

The two traveled to the city center of Jiangcheng, which is near the ancient town of Jiangcheng.

Jiangnan University is located near the city center, so this distance is not far.

The car stopped at the entrance of an alley on a street in the city center.

It's hard to imagine that there are still such ancient alleyways in the city center, which look like buildings from decades ago.

At the end of the alley, there was no road, but a door.

It looks just like a traditional courtyard house.

However, the layout here is clearly not that of a traditional courtyard house. There are some trees in the courtyard whose names I don't know, and many ornaments are hanging on the trees.

Before coming, Luo Ye had searched online and found that you need to make a reservation a day in advance to eat here, otherwise you won't be able to eat when you arrive.

This peculiar restaurant is indeed not large in scale, but it takes a different approach. First of all, it is located in the city center, and buying such a courtyard-style building would cost more than ten million.

Not to mention the restaurant's internal operations.

As soon as the two entered, a small bell rang inside the restaurant. Then, a pretty waitress came over and asked, "Are you two Wenwen's friends?"

"Mm." Su Baizhou nodded.

"Miss Su, Mr. Luo, please come in. Wenwen has prepared a private room for you."

The two crossed the main hall and walked to another courtyard, and from there they came to a private room on the left side of the front hall.

Qin Yuwen had been waiting in the private room for quite some time.

"Hey, junior, is this your first time at my restaurant?"

"correct."

Luo Ye sat down in a chair, and Su Baizhou sat down next to him.

This wasn't Su Baizhou's first time here. When Qin Yuwen started her freshman year, she invited everyone over for a meal to make friends.

Later, her last roommate, besides Su Baizhou and Ye Qing, said behind her back that she was showing off, so she never invited anyone over again.

Moreover, she acted like a lazy bum at school. If she hadn't become that close to Su Baizhou, she wouldn't have told her that she hadn't invited everyone to a fancy restaurant, but to her house for dinner.

"Don't worry, I'll pay," Su Baizhou said calmly.

"What are you saying, Zhouzhou? I've had so many meals at your place, it's no big deal to treat you to one."

Qin Yuwen said casually, then called over the waiter and said, "Sister Ying, let's order."

"Wenwen is here."

It is well known that upscale restaurant menus do not include pictures.

So Qin Yuwen was free to improvise.

"By the way, Zhouzhou, my chef has heard about your cooking skills and has been wanting to exchange techniques with you."

Upon hearing this, Su Baizhou said calmly, "I only know how to cook some simple home-style dishes."

"You can cook home-style dishes so well, so my chef really admires you."

……

In the kitchen, an apprentice said disdainfully, "Master, what did Miss say about a student being able to make food that's just as good as yours? I really don't believe it. You're a famous chef in the industry."

"Don't say that. There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding."

Even so, a hint of arrogance still lingered in the chef's eyes.

"Master, when you serve the dishes later, that young lady may not have even seen these ingredients before."

"Shut up! We are chefs. We may disagree with other people's cooking skills, but we cannot belittle or ridicule them," the head chef admonished.

"Yes, master."

Not long after, the head chef came into the private room and placed a dish that he had just prepared on the table.

"This is Italian white truffle with Australian Wagyu beef. Miss Su, you can try it and give me some feedback."

The chef said with a smile, but his eyes were full of provocation.

Looking at the thumb-sized piece of meat on the plate in front of her, Su Baizhou pondered for a moment and said, "Sorry, I've never eaten this before, so I can't offer any advice."

Upon hearing this, the head chef was slightly taken aback.

Luo Ye glanced at the fairy-like senior, thinking of the delicious food she had made, and looked at the head chef, asking, "Isn't this a Chinese restaurant?"

"It's a Chinese restaurant, but it also sells some expensive Western dishes."

Why emphasize the word "precious"?

"This one……"

The head chef glanced at Qin Yuwen, who was also puzzled, not understanding why Luo Ye asked that question.

"It's expensive because the ingredients are very good," the chef said truthfully.

"So, what does the chef consider to be the essence of fine cuisine?"

At this moment, Luo Ye was completely different from his usual silly self. He was filled with confidence, as if he had everything under control and was calm and collected in the face of anything.

The head chef was speechless for a moment.

As a chef, he naturally knows what delicious food is.

But before he could speak, Luo Ye continued, "Good ingredients are certainly important, but which do you think is more commendable: turning top-quality ingredients into gourmet food, or turning ordinary ingredients into gourmet food?"
