Chef at the University Canteen-Chapter 449 - 266: Clearly Could Rely on His Looks, Yet Chooses Culinary Skill

Lu Shuwu listened to these words, smiled, and said,

"Then starting tonight, let’s all eat in the dining hall."

Jiang Yu didn’t say anything; after eating his fill and resting a bit, he got up, made himself a cup of tea, and headed out of the kitchen into the private room.

As soon as he stepped out of the kitchen, a gust of cold air from the air conditioner made Jiang Yu, who had been sweating, shiver involuntarily. It was like eating a piece of icy watermelon on a hot day, and he felt a refreshing coolness in every pore of his body.

Standing outside the private room for a moment, Jiang Yu, not wanting to linger in the cool air, was just about to push the door to go inside when he noticed out of the corner of his eye that someone was walking toward him, eyeing him as they approached.

He hadn’t even had the chance to turn his head when he heard a strange but pleasant voice saying:

"Hi there! Excuse me, are you Mr. Jiang Yu?"

The person who approached was none other than Zhu Yaxue, who had been waiting in the dining hall.

Zhu Yaxue had been waiting so long that the part-time working students had already cleaned the hall, and all the diners had left, but there was still no sign of Jiang Yu.

She even began to suspect that Jiang Yu might have sneaked back to the second floor when she wasn’t looking.

After all, she only knew that Jiang Yu was a young man in his twenties, but she had no idea what he looked like, so even if Jiang Yu was standing right in front of her, she might not recognize him.

Zhu Yaxue was contemplating giving up and leaving when she suddenly saw a young man holding a tea cup coming out of the kitchen.

This young man looked to be about the same age as Jiang Yu, and he matched the description given by people she had previously interviewed.

"Whether he’s Jiang Yu or not, I have to go over and ask. Missing this chance would be a regret too late to fix!"

With that thought, she instantly became excited, stood up from her seat, and slowly approached.

As Zhu Yaxue slowly moved closer, she observed carefully, becoming more convinced that this person was Jiang Yu. She had thought he’d stay outside in the cool air longer, but before she could get close, he was about to go inside.

If Jiang Yu went in, how could she, as a girl, have the nerve to go in and disturb him?

Feeling anxious, Zhu Yaxue nervously spoke up quickly.

Jiang Yu heard someone looking for him, paused for a moment, and turned his head in curiosity, seeing a pretty girl around his age whom he didn’t recognize.

He could confirm that he’d never met her before, so what did she want with him?

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and after a moment’s thought, he nodded and said,

"I am Jiang Yu. Miss, do you need something from me?"

"So you really are Mr. Jiang Yu!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yaxue was overjoyed and her heart skipped a beat.

Ever since tasting the delightful peach blossom mille-feuille pastry made by Jiang Yu in Chang’an, she couldn’t stop thinking:

What kind of person could make such delicious food?

She had imagined Jiang Yu countless times in her mind!

Just minutes before, she had been wondering what she’d say when she finally met Jiang Yu.

Would he be kind or temperamental? Would he mind being disturbed?

If he refused the interview, what would she do?

What Zhu Yaxue didn’t expect was that after waiting so long, she actually met Jiang Yu, and he was completely different from what she had imagined!

Unwittingly, a cliché thought popped into her mind:

"He could easily live off his looks, but he chooses to rely on his culinary skills!"
