When they reached the private room on the second floor, Zhou Lin slowly sat down.

He didn't allow the waiter to follow them in, nor did ask the waiter to send in a cup of tea or whatever, meaning that he didn’t want to spend much time on this. 

Han Tingxuan, as a businessman who had created a group in his previous life, naturally got the hint. So, after Zhou Lin sat down, he clasped his hands together and said, "My gift is a business deal. My great-grandfather had been a chef for most of his life. At that time, he was very famous, so he left a few menu recipes. The Restaurant of Bon Appetite's signature dish, Peppery Chicken, is very good, and well known to many places. However, if Restaurant of Bon Appetite had other signature dishes, it would be more beneficial for Restaurant of Bon Appetite, right?

"Recipe?" Zhou Lin was shocked. Then, he squinted his eyes and looked at Han Tingxuan.

With a smile on his face, Han Tingxuan did not move an inch, leaving Zhou Lin to observe him.

"How many recipes do you have?" Zhou Lin's voice was faint, but the fist hidden behind him was clenched tightly, so tight that it was sweating.

"I've done a lot of bad things in the past. My great-grandfather passed down five recipes, but I lost two of them. Now I only have three. I had been living in the muddle alone without any aim until I was almost killed this time. I realize that I would not be forgiven by my ancestors even if I died like this. Even my father and daddy would be ashamed in front of the Han family's ancestors. Therefore, I decide to make a change to be a new person!”

Zhou Lin pursed his lips and looked at the young man in front of him. "What do you want to say?"

"Here is my plan. If I sold all three recipes, my great-grandfather would probably crawl out of this coffin and beat me. Therefore, I only plan to sell one. However, you have the choice to pick one.”

Shopkeeper Zhou stood up and walked back and forth. A moment later, he said lightly, "It's not like we don’t have nice dishes at the restaurant."

"I see. That is why I said you can pick one. If you don’t like the food cooked according to my recipe, the deal is off.”

Shopkeeper Zhou stared at Han Tingxuan and the gentle smile on his face. A few seconds later, he said, "Come with me."

Next, Han Tingxuan was brought to the kitchen. Apart from a chef, everyone else, including the workers, was emptied.

Han Tingxuan took a look at the ingredients in the kitchen. They were all sorts of ingredients. Then he looked at the seasoning, which was complete.

So, he smiled and said, "The recipe is about ingredients. I need to make the ingredients on my own."

Shopkeeper Zhou naturally got the hint. He nodded and turned around with the chef.

Han Tingxuan was not afraid of them peeking. It only took him five minutes to finish the ingredients.

"Alright."

Next up was to instruct the chef to cook.

Half an hour later, all three dishes were served.

Braised Dongpo Pork, Gongpao Kicken, Braised Meat Balls. Although the last dish was not perfectly cooked due to the short time, it did not matter that much.

Shopkeeper Zhou started to taste the dishes from the first to the third. He got more and more serious.

Finally, Shopkeeper Zhou said to the chef, "Have a taste."

The chef’s eyes sparkled brighter as he tasted the last one from the first. "Delicious! Very tasty!" He was not an eloquent man. So he couldn't think of any fancy words except these straightforward words from the bottom of his heart.

Shopkeeper Zhou looked at Han Tingxuan who was still smiling gently. But Shopkeeper Zhou started to take it seriously. Since when did Han Tingxuan act so calm in front of people?

The three dishes were still in the kitchen. But Han Tingxuan once again arrived at the private room with Shopkeeper Zhou.

But this time, there was another person, Chief Shopkeeper Qian Rongying of the Restaurant of Bon Appetite.

Qian Rongying was a little older than Zhou Lin and looked quite kind. He also wore a gentle smile on his face, but Han Tingxuan did not dare to underestimate him at all. A chief shopkeeper who could make a restaurant a great success was not that simple!

A gentle smile was misleading information.
