Chef at the University Canteen-Chapter 512 - 282: At Least There’s Still the Seventh Dining Hall_3

"Ahem, I really apologize, it’s going to be hard on you, Xiaojiang."

Xiong Bingsheng paused for a moment, then quickly said,

"Since that’s the case, we’ll need to change our plan. You don’t need to make any more crayfish in the afternoon. It’s too much trouble. When the batch of students comes in the afternoon, I’ll just bring them over for dinner.

After all, once they’ve had crayfish, they won’t want to leave. They won’t seriously think about staying overnight just to wait for breakfast the next day, right?"

Jiang Yu couldn’t help but laugh at what he said, nodding and replying:

"Alright, I’ll follow Teacher Xiong’s arrangement."

Pausing for a moment, he suddenly remembered something and asked,

"By the way, Teacher Xiong, since the class director will also have lunch here, should I make a few special dishes just for you all?"

"Ah? Wouldn’t that be too much trouble for you?"

Xiong Bingsheng’s expression was a mix of joy and hesitation upon hearing this.

Frankly, having such a large group suddenly decide to stay for lunch is already quite troublesome for Jiang Yu. Originally, according to his plan, once the dining hall was officially open, he and the class directors would just casually buy something from the staff-only window.

Nobody expected Jiang Yu to plan on making special dishes for them...

Of course, Xiong Bingsheng understood that the reason Jiang Yu was doing this was entirely because of him. How could he not be moved?

Thinking about this, his gaze towards Jiang Yu softened considerably.

"It’s no trouble at all. It’s the weekend, and I was just relaxing anyway."

Jiang Yu didn’t mind at all. He smiled at Xiong Bingsheng and said,

"Teacher Xiong, you can go back and ask those teachers what they’d like to eat or if they have any dietary restrictions. I’m about to start cooking."

"Alright, alright! Thank you, Xiaojiang!"

Xiong Bingsheng replied, then chatted briefly with Jiang Yu before returning to the private room to continue accompanying the class directors.

In the dining hall’s first-floor lobby, the spicy crayfish was completely consumed, and the stacks of shrimp shells on the tables were cleaned up by the part-time student staff. However, the air still carried a rich and enticing aroma.

Students gathered in small groups, each sitting in the dining area with excited expressions, chattering away:

"The food at the Seventh Dining Hall is truly delicious. No wonder there are so many people outside the school who go to great lengths to try it!"

"I’ve heard that Master Xiaojiang from the Seventh Dining Hall can sell a table of dishes for 100,000 yuan. As they say, you get what you pay for. If someone’s willing to spend so much, the food must be good!"

"That’s why the ’Jiang University Seventh Dining Hall’ Douyin account has tens of thousands of followers. It’s not just bragging; it’s real skill!"

"People say Huannong University’s dining hall is the best among domestic universities. But after tasting the crayfish at the Seventh Dining Hall today, I think this is the place with the best food!"

"I’ve decided. When I fill out my college applications in a couple of days, I’m choosing Jiang University. If I can only eat this delicious food once, I don’t think I’ll ever fall in love with anyone else’s cooking in my life."

"I’m also planning to apply to Jiang University. With my scores, instead of going to a university out of town, I might as well stay local. At least Jiang University has the Seventh Dining Hall!"

"Right, right! If you want to travel, a summer vacation trip is enough. There’s no need to study abroad. If you can’t stay after graduation, leaving is pointless!"

"..."

The students’ chatter continued endlessly, with topics shifting from praising the Seventh Dining Hall’s food to the upcoming college application days. Several students with scores close to Jiang University’s admission line directly stated they would apply to Jiang University.

Not for anything else, but to eat at the Seventh Dining Hall every day during their university years!

When these students spoke up, they immediately drew the attention of others, especially as their points made sense:

If you can get into top domestic universities like Shuimu, Jing University, or Mo University, that’s one thing. But if you can only enter a college similar to Jiang University, what’s the point of going to another province?

Studying at Jiang University in your own hometown, isn’t that appealing?

Moreover, Jiang University has the Seventh Dining Hall where the food is so delicious that people risk swallowing their tongues!

With this thought, other seniors also began to seriously consider whether they should study elsewhere or stay in Jiangzhou to attend Jiang University.

Sitting quietly, attentively listening to others’ discussions without joining in was Li Hao. He couldn’t help but nudge Yao Pinghua beside him, whispering:

"Hua Zi, I think what they’re saying makes sense! Listening to them, I’m even tempted to apply to Jiang University.

Although Jiang University isn’t prominent among key universities, it has strength, and several of its top majors are nationally ranked!

Not to mention, there’s the Seventh Dining Hall!

Honestly, even though we’re still in the Seventh Dining Hall, I’m already starting to miss the spicy crayfish we just ate. If I can’t eat such delicious food in the future, life would seem bleak."

"What are you saying?"

Yao Pinghua was busy with his phone when he was surprised by Li Hao’s words. He turned his head to look at Li Hao, raised an eyebrow, and said,

"You scored so high, and you’re planning to apply to Jiang University? Aren’t you afraid your dad will break your legs!"
