Noticing his gaze on Yue Jiaojiao, Zhao Zhan’s voice turned cold. “Do you not want to see anymore?”
The waiter shrunk back like a quail when he was caught staring.
“F*cking get to the kitchen right now! Don’t make a fool of yourself in front of the customers. In the future, you’ll be helping out in the kitchen, and you’re not allowed to come to the front anymore!”
The manager saw that his nephew roll his eyes and so he kicked him in the butt, throwing him into the kitchen. He then looked at Yue Jiaojiao and said in a fawning tone, “This dish is called tofu soup. Have heard of it?”
Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan looked at each other.

Originally, because this waiter was such a killjoy, Yue Jiaojiao wanted to change to another restaurant to eat. However, when the manager mentioned tofu soup, she pulled Zhao Zhan to a stool at the side and sat down. she slowly said, “Of course, I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never tried it before. I didn’t think that today would be a blessing in disguise.”
“The two of you are lucky, it just so happens that we have it prepared today. I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare the dishes for you.”
After he left, Yue Jiaojiao poked Zhao Zhan’s firm muscles. “Why did you hit him so suddenly? Why did you dirty your hands?”
“He shouldn’t have treated you like that.” Zhao Zhan’s anger had not subsided, but the anger in his body was naturally extinguished from the contact. “If you encounter such a situation again, I will make sure he won’t even have the chance to finish his words.”
“Why are you so cute?”
If Zhao Zhan hadn’t pulled her behind him in time just now, she would’ve died.
She had a hundred ways to let the waiter know how unlucky he would be if he provoked someone he shouldn’t.
However, since Zhao Zhan had taken the lead, Yue Jiaojiao was happy to hide behind him lazily and not waste her energy.
“Let’s try the tofu soup later. If there’s anything wrong, we’ll tell Manager Li about this when we get back and let him decide what to do next.”
Zhao Zhan nodded heavily.
While the two of them were talking, the manager personally served the dishes. “Esteemed guests, the tofu soup is here, as well as the eggs and vegetables you’ve ordered. Please enjoy.”

Yue Jiaojiao used a spoon to scoop a little into the plate, then crushed it and observed it for a moment. She then brought it up to her nose and sniffed.
It had to be said that the wisdom of the ancient people could not be underestimated. Forgery was really an eternal problem in the world.
“It’s made from eggs, fish, and flour,” Yue Jiaojiao placed the bowl in front of Zhao Zhan and pointed it out. “It only looks like tofu, but it doesn’t actually taste like tofu.”
“If you smell it closely, it smells a little fishy. they don’t know how the tofu got so white, so they only found similar ingredients to replace it. The chef didn’t know how to process it, but he was able to cover up the fishy smell. Not bad.”
“I’ll try it and see if there’s any difference.”
Yue Jiaojiao held her hand down and said, “Who knows if that waiter did anything to these dishes in the kitchen? Don’t eat them, they look dirty.”
Zhao Zhan obediently retracted his hand.
On the second floor, the manager stood respectfully behind a man and watched the two people’s every move downstairs with him. He bowed and said respectfully, “Sir, why aren’t they eating? Do you think they’ve tasted real tofu before?”
“I don’t know if they’ve ever tasted real tofu, but I know that man just made a big deal with Manager Zhou from the Huai Jing Inn.”
