Chapter 82

Not asking for trouble

Author: Er Meow Go to bed early

Not asking for trouble

There was obvious hesitation in the sous chef's tone when he spoke. He only spoke halfway when Xu Nan saw him glance at Li Zhenhui from the corner of his eye, and then silently closed his mouth.

Seeing this, Xu Nan felt helpless, but he also understood what the sous chef meant. After all, they all worked together. The sous chef was afraid that if he told the truth, he would offend Li Zhenhui and not be able to stay in the back kitchen.

Go down.

So even though he was sure in his heart that this plate of shrimp was indeed not fresh, due to Li Zhenhui's status here, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Coward!

When Li Zhenhui saw this, the smug look on his face became even more obvious. He looked at Xu Nan with a look of dismay on his face. That means, let me see what you can do to me. What can you do to a relative? The chef is still

It's under his management, Li Zhenhui.

Li Zhenhui's ugly and evil face made Xu Nan feel bored. She turned her eyes and looked at the sous chef who didn't dare to tell the truth.

He took the initiative to speak and helped him say the second half of what he didn't dare to say:

"What the sous chef is trying to say is that these shrimps...are not fresh at all, are they?"

As soon as Xu Nan finished speaking, there was silence in the kitchen. Then there was a burst of whispers. Especially after everyone listened to Xu Nan's words, they all looked at Li Zhenhui with doubts.

Everyone looked at Li Zhenhui and sweat broke out on his forehead. Although he was usually domineering and unreasonable in the kitchen, overall he was quite authoritative.

But he himself knew very well that there were many people in the back kitchen who were dissatisfied with him, and his position as head chef was also being watched by many people.

After all, the position of head chef at Fuyun Restaurant is a very fat one. Not to mention the outside ones, there are six sous chefs in their back kitchen alone. As long as he is kicked off, then this

The position of chef is within reach.

Li Zhenhui was stared at by everyone in the kitchen, and his palms were suddenly sweating from nervousness. When he looked at Xu Nan, his teeth itched with hatred.

It's all her fault for being such a troublemaker, otherwise why would so many bad things happen?

The food is not fresh. When a customer comes to the door, you can just say a few words and get over it, but she actually brings the rotten shrimps.

At this time, the dish was placed in front of everyone. Whether it was fresh or not, you could tell at a glance.

The more Li Zhenhui thought about it, the more panicked he became, and words blurted out from his mouth without thinking:

"You're talking nonsense. I didn't use rotten fish and shrimps to top up my credit, and I didn't take any kickbacks from the dishes. Are you a new guy not wanting to work here anymore? How dare you slander me?"

As soon as Li Zhenhui finished speaking, the whole place was silent. There was not even a sound of a pin dropping in the kitchen.

After realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Li Zhenhui reached out and covered his mouth, but it was too late.

He looked around, everyone was looking at him with shocked expressions, but Xu Nan was standing on the opposite side of him, and when he looked at him, his expression seemed to be looking at a fool.

He was upset in his heart and wished he could slap himself in the mouth.

Xu Nan's words were compelling, and for a moment, he didn't want to blame himself.

Xu Nan just said that the shrimp was not fresh, but in the end he became confused and careless.

Xu Nan stood aside, also in a daze. After all, real two hundred and fifty are rare these days, and Li Zhenhui was the first.

Originally, she was only angry when she saw Li Zhenhui confusing right and wrong and refusing to admit that the shrimp was not fresh, so she asked him reluctantly.

She originally just wanted Li Zhenhui to admit that the shrimp was not fresh, and she did not want to get too involved in other internal affairs.

But I didn't expect that Li Zhenhui would be so stupid and directly overthrew his own boss.

But this was good, as it saved her from wasting time with him. Xu Nan looked at Li Zhenhui, who was standing aside with a confused look on his face, and spoke again, saying in a mocking tone:

"Chef Li, are you just asking for trouble?"

The mood in the kitchen changed instantly. Li Zhenhui looked at the different expressions on everyone's faces and knew in his heart that now he could no longer hide the kickback thing.

The sous chef standing next to the plate of shrimp saw everyone staring at him, as if waiting for his final confirmation.

He sighed helplessly in his heart, held his forehead, glanced at Xu Nan, and said to everyone:

"Xu Nan is right. The shrimp is indeed not fresh. Even if it has been cooked, you can still smell a rotten fishy smell."

For a moment, the whole audience was in mourning.

At this moment, even though Li Zhenhui has not admitted to receiving kickbacks, this fact has basically been confirmed.

When Li Zhenhui saw that the momentum was not right, why didn't he bring it upon himself?

Can he admit this?

Li Zhenhui hurriedly defended himself. He looked at Xu Nan, trying to muddle through:

"Why do you, the new guy, keep doing shit every day?"

"Tiger is still taking a nap. As the chef of the Floating Yun Restaurant, I have a lot of chores waiting for me every day. Is it possible that I can still keep an eye on the food delivery person to check the quality?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xu Nan who had been standing aside and continued to quibble:

"Today's shrimp was purely an accident. The delivery person cut corners and passed off inferior quality. It was my inattention that caused this rotten shrimp to end up on the table."

After speaking, he paused for a moment, observed the reactions of everyone in the kitchen, and then continued to pretend to be sad, pretending to say to everyone:

"The problem is with the supplier we cooperated with. They betrayed my trust. In order to avoid this happening again, our restaurant will no longer cooperate with them in the future."

After hearing this, Xu Nan couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

Li Zhenhui was stunned by the laughter, thinking that Xu Nan was mocking him, but after thinking about it, Xu Nan didn't seem to have any reason to laugh at him.

He has already explained about this rotten shrimp, right?

Anyway, he has the final say over the kitchen, and the people who measured the kitchen didn't dare to continue investigating.

There was nothing they could do if they didn't accept it. After all, he, Li Zhenhui, was the boss here. Thinking of this, Li Zhenhui felt that he was a lot less angry. When he looked at Xu Nan, his eyes softened a lot. He just waited to find Xu Nan in a few days.

She was immediately fired as a troublemaker.

But right now, with so many people here, Xu Nan's smile would only put him off the stage. He didn't want to argue with Xu Nan anymore, but in front of everyone's eyes, he could only bite the bullet and continue to ask:

"You...why are you laughing?"

"I've finished explaining the shrimp problem, now let's start dealing with your problem."

After finishing speaking, Li Zhenhui straightened his back and spoke confidently, completely losing the guilty feeling he had just now.

When he spoke, his tone seemed to be as if he was the big boss of the Fuyun Restaurant, with a bit of arrogance:

"The task I just gave you, I asked you to solve the problem, not to create trouble."
