Not long after, Li Zhaofeng got married, and Wu Xin lost interest. However, the memories of the time spent frantically gathering information about him lingered vividly in her mind. Rao Jie had always kept an eye on him. It was said that the the Dong Family had once been royal chefs in the palace, and later became a family renowned for their culinary skills, often preparing meals for national leaders or important foreign visitors.
Li Zhaofeng was the most talented chef of their generation. Whether it was Chinese or Western cuisine, he could master it effortlessly, winning numerous international awards. Anyone who had tasted his dishes would remember them fondly. Yet, he did not settle in one place as a chef; instead, he continued his journey of learning and exploration, traveling the world while honing his culinary skills.
This legendary figure would occasionally be active on major social media platforms, but ever since his marriage, he had started to travel the world with his wife and live a low-key life. No one expected to see him here.
As Rao Jie and Wu Xin excitedly explained to Wu Rong, the stage had already begun preparing pastries. It seemed to have turned into a pastry chef competition. Each chef showcased their best skills to create exquisite desserts as gifts for the store's opening.
Rao Jie’s focus was solely on Li Zhaofeng. She watched intently as he skillfully manipulated various ingredients, creating a mesmerizing piece of art that was hard to take one's eyes off. Each master was to make five identical desserts for the audience to taste; each table could only receive one dessert from one master. Of course, the store also prepared their signature desserts for guests to enjoy.
Rao Jie couldn't wait to try Li Zhaofeng's dessert, but so many people wanted it that in the end, he decided to distribute them himself. Perhaps because they were all compatriots, when Li Zhaofeng reached their table, he glanced at them before handing over his creation.
Although Wu Xin no longer had a crush on him, she still felt excited. If it weren't for the occasion, she would have rushed over to take photos as mementos. The table held several different desserts, but what they anticipated most was Li Zhaofeng's.
Once they finished tasting, their expectations were met; Rao Jie was certain this was the best dessert she had ever eaten—she felt like she could float with joy. However, seeing Rao Jie so happy made Wu Rong less pleased. His girlfriend was blissfully enjoying desserts made by another man, which irritated him greatly. He thought perhaps he should learn to make desserts himself when they returned home.
But such an idea would surely lead to disaster.
Later on, as guests were selected to participate in DIY dessert making, there were several professional pastry chefs among them. Rao Jie felt that if she went up there, she would surely be looked down upon by the masters and began to feel nervous. However, encouraged by Wu Xin, she couldn't suppress her excitement and bravely stepped forward.
To her surprise, the host also interviewed her. Unfortunately, she didn't understand Romantic languages at all. Just as Wu Rong was about to step in to help her, Li Zhaofeng unexpectedly volunteered to be her translator, causing Rao Jie—the little fan—to nearly faint from excitement.
This only made Wu Rong's expression darker.
Perhaps due to their shared background as compatriots during the DIY session, Li Zhaofeng naturally took on the role of guiding Rao Jie. His occasional cool remarks were succinct yet perfectly timed reminders that helped Rao Jie navigate crucial moments in her creation process. She couldn't help but marvel at how professional he was—he seemed to know everything and commanded her respect.
As Rao Jie completed her dessert...
