Los Angeles West

During the winter solstice, I made an appointment with Qin Zhuang for a drink. The meeting place was Zhongjing Hotel, and Zhongjing Hotel was the hotel of Qin Zhuang's family. This five-star hotel chain has never been ranked among the top three in the hotel industry.

The winter solstice came early, and they said they wanted to taste the skills of the new French chef in the western restaurant. As soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the western restaurant, they heard the sound of bowls and cups being poured, and everyone in the restaurant focused their attention on the middle of the restaurant. in a position.

Qin Zhuang's frown became tighter and tighter. When he thought it was a daily accident, he heard Dong Zhi say to him: "It turns out that people are always under your nose."

At the table in the middle of the western restaurant, Luo Chengxi was a little helpless, but he still tried his best to maintain a smile. Although his clothes were splashed with red wine, and the lady in front of him was still angry, he said to himself, in fact, he couldn't Blame the lady for being angry that the steak Wellington I ordered came out raw, anyone would be angry.That's why the lady dropped the knife on the plate and knocked down the wine glass on the table.

"Why don't you talk?" The woman's face with exquisite makeup was full of anger, as if her nose was a little crooked, Luo Chengxi pursed her lower lip and said, "I'm really sorry, I asked the kitchen to serve you another steak."

"Then how long do I have to wait?" The beautiful woman's almond eyes widened.

"It won't be long..."

"You said it won't be long, you won't? Are you a cook?" The woman was still relentless.

At this moment, the manager of the western restaurant appeared, he stepped forward, and with a look, Luo Chengxi took a step back and stood behind the manager.

"I'm really sorry, Ms. Zhou, this waiter just arrived, if there is anything offensive, please don't mind."

Seeing the manager coming, this Miss Zhou still had no good face.

"Really? In the western restaurant in Zhongjing, the kitchen serves raw steaks, and the waiters are new and don't know the rules. Is this the characteristic of your Zhongjing?"

The manager of the restaurant remained calm, with a friendly smile on his face, "Miss Zhou laughed, we are very sorry that our mistakes made Miss Zhou unhappy, and we will definitely make up for it. We have a new Aolong in our kitchen today. Our new What do you think of the hired French chef cooking for you and opening a bottle of 96-year-old red wine for you?"

The expression on Ms. Zhou's face softened a little, and the manager took advantage of the victory again to pursue, "Next week, CHEFTOME in the UK will hold a western food banquet with us. We will send you an invitation letter, and please appreciate it."

When Ms. Zhou heard this, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. You must know that not everyone can receive the invitation letter for the western food banquet next week.

Soon the turmoil subsided, and the surroundings returned to calm. Luo Chengxi followed the manager to the bar.

"Sorry, manager, I didn't handle this well." Luo Chengxi said apologetically.

The manager looked at the young man in front of him. He has just been here for a few days. He works hard, treats customers well, and has a nice voice. He is a waiter who can make people's eyes shine. The waiter's limelight is very low-key, and the relationship with his colleagues is also very good.Among the new group of people, he is the one he is most optimistic about.

"You just came here, so it's good enough to handle it like this, at least it didn't cause too much commotion."

"I will work hard." Luo Chengxi said with sincerity.

"Hmm..." The manager nodded, and said a few words to Luo Chengxi, but they didn't pay attention to the president who had been watching all this not far away.

"Let's go to the Chinese restaurant." After Qin Zhuang finished speaking, he turned around and left, Zuo Dongzhi took another look at Luochengxi, and followed.

Soon Chinese delicacies and a bottle of white wine were placed on the table. After drinking two glasses, Zuo Dongzhi suddenly said, "You don't know that Luo Chengxi works here?" His tone was suspicious, but his eyes were sure.

Qin Zhuang didn't make a sound, Zuo Dongzhi knew that he had acquiesced.

Zuo Dongzhi continued: "You said that he doesn't remember you, it seems to be true, otherwise I don't think he would come to work here."

Qin Zhuang picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp, his face changed slightly, "He doesn't remember me!"

"I remember you, I will hate you very much, he was blamed innocently, and was seriously injured."

"He will not…"

"No? I won't forget you, or I won't hate you?" Zuo Dongzhi asked.

"I'm sorry for him..." Zuo Dongzhi was slightly taken aback by Qin Zhuang's words, since he knew Qin Zhuang, he had never said sorry to anyone.

Zuo Dongzhi paused for a while and said: "When I knew that Lin Fan asked his subordinates to teach Luochengxi a lesson, I sent people to follow. I was afraid that Lin Fan would be too harsh, but my people went back and said, Luochengxi Gone."

"Did you send someone to see it?" Qin Zhuang was startled, and looked at his friend in surprise.

Zuo Dongzhi nodded.

"Why?" Qin Zhuang knew that among all his friends, no one took Luo Chengxi seriously, and only regarded him as his whim.

Zuo Dongzhi slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Because Xia Chu didn't like Lin Fan, Lin Fan sent someone to teach Luocheng West, and happened to be heard by Xia Chu."

"You have always been single-minded towards Xia Chu."

"If you find the person you want to devote yourself to, you will know." Zuo Dongzhi showed a gentle smile.

Qin Zhuang smiled coldly, thinking about the word wholeheartedly...

In the dressing room of the western restaurant, Luo Chengxi stood in front of his cabinet and looked down at the stained clothes. There was nothing to be seen on the black vest, but there were a lot of red wine stains on the sleeves of the white shirt. He took it He changed into the spare shirt in the locker. The working hours were not over yet, but the manager gave him an hour to rest, and it was almost time for Miss Zhou to leave.

While buttoning his buttons, Luo Chengxi suddenly felt that there was someone behind him, but at this time, no one should come to the locker room.

"Are you Luo Chengxi?" A slightly magnetic voice sounded from behind, Luo Chengxi turned around and saw a man in a chef's uniform standing there.He is tall, strong but not too muscular, with black hair, deep eyes, a high nose bridge, and nice lips, and he feels a bit mixed.

"You are?" Luo Chengxi felt a little familiar, and should have seen it in the back kitchen.

"Because of my fault today, I've made things difficult for you. I'm really sorry." The man said with sincerity, which made people unable to get angry.

"It's okay." Luo Chengxi smiled slightly, and put on the vest.

"Thank you..." The other party didn't expect Luo Chengxi to be such a talkative person.

"Are you CHEF Owen?" Luo Chengxi asked.

"Yes." Owen smiled, with a trace of surprise in his eyes, as if to say, you don't know me?

And Luo Chengxi understood what he meant, "I just came here not long ago, and many people are not very familiar with me."

Owen nodded knowingly.

"Don't you need to go back to the kitchen?" Luo Chengxi asked.

"The chef asked me to rest for an hour before going back." Owen leaned against the wall, obviously still struggling with the mistake he just made.

"What a coincidence, the manager also let me rest for an hour."

"Then let me buy you a cup of coffee." Owen proposed the invitation, and Luo Chengxi nodded in agreement.
