Chapter 616: 616

After dinner time ended, Yuan Zhou stared at the watch that he had just worn .

“Hua” . He suddenly pulled open the drawer again and took out a hand towel . Then, he wiped his hands clean and took off the watch .

After that, Yuan Zhou just stood still like that and stared at the watch for quite a while .

“A watch worth more than 10,000 RMB cannot be left unused like that . ” When Yuan Zhou said that, he covered his stomach with his hands, revealing a that his heartache was turning into a stomachache .

Just then, Yuan Zhou thought of the salesgirl’s words .

“Ta Ta Ta” . He turned around and walked upstairs quickly into his own room . Then, he took out the packaging bag of the watch and brought out a box from inside .

After a sound of “Pa”, the box was opened, revealing a holder for watches .

“Um . This should do it . ” Yuan Zhou took the box and directly walked downstairs .

He moved the holder and the watch back and forth for a while and then confirmed the location to put it . In the end, however, he put them away .

“It’s a little early to put it here . I think tomorrow morning is better . The light is good and it will be easier to tell the time,” Yuan Zhou said to the watch primly and then put it back in the cabinet .

After all, very few people came during the business time of the pub and thus, it wasn’t easily appreciated .

The next morning, Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was opened for business right on time again . The arrival and participation of Mu Xiaoyun reduced Zhou Jia’s workload and the customers were more used to her .

After all, there was a large loli like Mu Xiaoyun, who was so lovable and quick-witted, that behaved like a big mascot of the restaurant . Moreover, she formed a sharp contrast with the solemn and indifferent person Yuan Zhou, which made the scene even more interesting .

At least, most of the customers thought so .

At the earliest possible time, Yuan Zhou put the watch worth of 11,000 RMB on the countertop . It appeared fairly conspicuous and didn’t get in the way .

“Huh? Where did that watch come from? Is it for me?” Ling Hong went up and held the watch up, saying intentionally .

“No . It’s for telling the time . ” Yuan Zhou said lightly .

“Don’t you have a clock?” Wu Hai glanced at it but didn’t appear to be interested in that .

“It’s more convenient to tell the time in this way . ” Yuan Zhou continued saying that indifferently .

Then… there was no then . Ling Hong just shrugged in an uninterested manner, sitting down to order his dishes while Wu Hai straightforwardly focused his attention on the food steamer containing the Soup Dumplings .

Meanwhile, other customers that saw the watch did nothing but just glanced at it . They neither asked Yuan Zhou about it nor did anything else .

“It seems to be different from what I imagined . ” Yuan Zhou looked around without turning a hair and knitted his brows, feeling a little puzzled in the heart .

Having failed in acting cool, Yuan Zhou was a little upset . Fortunately, he had always appeared solemn during normal times and thus nobody noticed that he was disappointed . Therefore, he became even more disappointed .

Weren’t they supposed to praise him for the tasteful watch on the countertop?

Luckily, the mission released by the system rescued Yuan Zhou .

That’s right . The system released another mission .

The system displayed, “Host, you have triggered a side mission . To receive or not?”

“Receive,” Yuan Zhou said without any hesitation .

The system displayed, “The side mission has been released . It’s available to be checked . “

“What will the mission be this time?” While thinking of that, Yuan Zhou tapped open the mission .

[Side Mission] Hold a fruit tasting meeting and let customers choose the most satisfying fruit by voting . Then it can be used in the fruit plate after meals .

(Mission tips: It must be held at 12:00 at night on any particular day . Go, go and work hard to achieve this mission . )

[Mission Reward] After-meal fruits

(Reward tips:) You want something else even if you have been rewarded with the fruits? That’s not possible . )

After he read the mission, Yuan Zhou really wanted to beat him . He asked in a speechless manner, “System, are you sure it means 12:00 midnight rather than at noon?”

The system displayed, “Good eyesight is an indispensable skill for a chef . “

“My eyesight is very good, but yours does not seem to be so . You want me to hold the fruit tasting meeting at 12:00 midnight . Do you think it’s a ghost market?” Yuan Zhou supported his forehead feebly and directly grumbled .

The system displayed, “The full name of this system is Master Chef System . “

“So this is the reason you want me to hold the fruit tasting meeting at midnight?” Yuan Zhou almost laughed out of anger .

Then, the system fell silent for quite a while . Just when Yuan Zhou thought the system vanished again, it reappeared .

The system displayed, “Host, don’t you feel it’s more meaningful to hold the fruit tasting meeting at midnight?”

“Ho Ho . Can I swear?” Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly .

The system displayed, “As you please, host . “

“How is this goddamned meaningful? Come on, let’s fight one on one . Today, I’m going to make you feel that the life of the system is more meaningful . ” Yuan Zhou rolled up his sleeves and appeared to be quite furious .

Then, the system no longer emitted any sound and straightforwardly ignored Yuan Zhou .

“It cannot have even a good day unless I am cheated . ” While muttering, Yuan Zhou checked the mission carefully and considered how to complete it .

After all, he couldn’t refuse the reward . The fruits provided by the system were quite attractive, not to mention that there weren’t a lot of varieties of fruit in his restaurant .

However, Yuan Zhou felt his balls aching as soon as he thought of the time . Thinking about it a little longer, he figured out an idea, “There are definitely very few people at this time of day, but Wu Hai and Ling Hong can probably come then . I think three or five people can be here . ”

Yuan Zhou was thinking in the heart who could come then . In his opinion, those who often came to drink liquor were supposed to have time at night . In just a little while, he confirmed the candidates . There were a total of five people .

“Tomorrow I will notify them right away . ” Yuan Zhou tapped his left hand with the right one and finally confirmed how to complete this mission .

However, the system was not easily fooled or cheated .

The system displayed, “Tasting is both a science and an art . The tasting of the fruit requires not only knowledge of the various seasonal fruits, planting, quality, and varieties of the fruits, but also many people to verify it . “

“Therefore, the participants cannot be less than 30 people . This is a medium-sized tasting meeting . “

The long passage was read through by Yuan Zhou without omitting a single word and instantly, he got angry .

“Don’t stop me . I’m going to perish together with this goddamn system . What exactly are you thinking? How could you think of letting me find thirty people to come to eat fruits at 12:00 midnight? Won’t they think that it’s a ghost market? Do you know the strength of my big fists?” Yuan Zhou simple was outraged and exasperated .

In response to Yuan Zhou’s anger, the system just played dead . It neither answered him nor responded to him .

Only after Yuan Zhou walked around the kitchen in a huff for a while did he stop and start to consider how to complete the mission .

After all, anger couldn’t solve any problems . Yuan Zhou was very clear about that, but still, he needed to vent his anger . Otherwise, the system wouldn’t realize that had a hot temper as well .

“The procedures of the tasting meeting?” Yuan Zhou felt a headache as soon as he thought of the difficult problem of the system .

Yuan Zhou had never been a class leader and hence didn’t have any concept of organizing anything . He simply didn’t know what to start with .

“Is it better to ask Jiang Changxi or Yin Ya?” Yuan Zhou had thought of many ideas in his mind .

In his eyes, Jiang Changxi was a director of a company and must have conducted countless events while Yin Ya was supposed to have no problem in organizing medium-sized events as an assistant of the supervisor .

For an instant, Yuan Zhou couldn’t make up his mind whom to ask .

He stood still and thought for five minutes and then made the decision .

“Well, a prince charming like me had better look through the internet . ” Yuan Zhou turned around and went upstairs into his own room .
