All chefs are divided by the rank of the chef. A one-star chef is the most basic chef. It requires an aspiring chef to take the basic examination. After pa.s.sing the examination, you will become a one-star chef. There are no age restrictions for taking this examination.

When a one-star chef is at least 20 years old, they could apply to take the 2-star examination. Should they pa.s.s, they will become a 2-star chef. This means that only those who are 20 and above could become a  2-star chef.

As for 3-star chef, he or she must be 25 and above to take the examination.

As for 4-star, 5-star and above, there is no age restrictions and no examinations. But the requirements are stricter. The chef must have partic.i.p.ated in compet.i.tions and won enough points.

In this world, it is a requirement that if you want to open a restaurant, you must have a chef that is qualified. The restrictions are quite limiting. For instance, a 1-star chef is limited to opening a commoners’ restaurant.

Tian Xiaoduo had a.s.sumed that Ye Chui was a 1-star chef, because Ye Chui is only qualified to achieve

a 1-star chef ranking because of his age. As Ye Chui’s cooking is so good, he a.s.sumed that Ye Chui had already become certified.

Never did he expected that Ye Chui did not know anything regarding the chef certification.

Ye Chui was stunned, “So if I want to open a restaurant, I need to have a chef qualification, and because of my age, I can at most be a 1-star chef? And I can only open a normal eatery?”

This is not what Ye Chui wants!

Looking at the surprise expression on Ye Chui’s face, Tian Xiaoduo could not help thinking: He is only 31 years old this year, but he could be a 5-star chef. The main reason is that he was devoted to the pursuit of fine food.

Ye Chui may be younger than him, but Ye Chui’s cooking skills are superior to his. Therefore, he thought of learning from Ye Chui. If Ye Chui agrees, he does not mind working for Ye Chui. With his five star ranking, Ye Chui can open a grand restaurant.

Just when he comes up with this idea and was about to suggest his solution to Ye

Ye Chui, he noticed that Ye Chui had signalled to him not to speak. This is because Ye Chui had seen the girl that makes his heart flutters – Lin Wei.

Lin Wei must have seen the news online that Elder Han was hospitalised and immediately rushed here.

“Are you all right? Is Elder Han’s condition serious or not? My dad knows Elder Han. I could ask my father to speak to him.” When she reached Ye Chui, she immediately asked, and even looked all over him, as if she was worried that he is injured. Her face was filled with concern.

Ye Chui was surprised – he did not expect Lin Wei to be so concerned about him. He smiled, “Relax, Elder Han is all right. Because the food that I cook is so tasty, he ends up overeating and was hospitalised.”

“Really?” Lin Wei relaxed. She patted her chest, “You have frightened me to death!”

“Oh, I did not know that Weiwei is so concerned about me.” Ye Chui smiled as he continued.

Lin Wei’s face turned red, “Who’s worried about you? I am more worried that if something happened to you, I would

I would not be able to eat the mutton skewers or other tasty food.”

“Oh, so it is like this….” Ye Chui purposely looked very sad and downfallen.

“Of course, I care a little bit about you!” Lin Wei immediately admitted. She sticks out her fingers with a tiny gap between them, “Just this bit. Oh yes, Ye Chui, what did you cook for Elder Han? I also want to eat.”

“You are really a foodie.” Ye Chui smiled, and touched Lin Wei on her nose, “Whatever you want to eat, I could cook for you.”

Lin Wei blushed, she knocked away Ye Chui’s hand that touched her nose. Then she turned around and wanted to leave, as if she is angry, “I am not going to care about you anymore….”

Seeing the back of Lin Wei, Ye Chui did not give chase, but just smiled, “Today I cooked Shaoxing Drunken Chicken, Dong’An Chicken, Stewed Chicken with mushroom, and a dish that was served in the Qing Han Imperial Feast – the Hong Word chicken with shredded cuc.u.mber. These dishes made Elder Han cried with happiness.”

“But these are not the tastiest dishes I know how to

know how to cook. I still know how to cook many other delicious foods that are not inferior to these dishes. For example, Fortune Word roast pork, Wan Word Mala pork belly, Nian Word delicious vegetables, and there are Red Plum pearls, 8 treasure ducks, springy prawn rolls, Flying Dragons Lobsters etc. All these are the apex of Chinese cooking for thousands of years. But right now, I reckon that only I know how to cook these dishes.”

As soon as Ye Chui finished speaking, he heard the sound of water dripping – it is as if someone had drooled in large quant.i.ties. This sound was not from Lin Wei, but rather, it comes from Tian Xiaoduo.

Tian Xiaoduo waived his hands, “Please ignore me, and continue. This is not on purpose….”

Lin Wei was captivated by the names of the dishes. She turned around and looked at Ye Chui, “Can you really cook all these?”

“Of course, I will cook these for you when I have time, is it ok?” Ye Chui smiled. As long as the girl is a foodie, it is not hard to chase after her.

Lin Wei eagerly nodded her head,  “En!”
