Gourmet: From a Stall in Northern Europe

Chapter 582: Chapter 494: Great Xia Technique—Bare-Handed Dough Rolling Reappears

As an old employee, she had already watched all of Lucas’s videos not less than three times.

Except for those few episodes at the beginning in Amiens, after moving to the Radisson, all the video covers have been unified with food as the main focus, and no human images have appeared since.

Why suddenly put Zhao’s image this time?

Even if you want to put someone, it should be the chef, shouldn’t it?

Whether it’s Chef Lin or a few head chefs, any one of them is an influential figure, using them as cover elements would absolutely attract more views.

Yet it’s Zhao?

Zhao has only been here for a few weeks, apart from the diners who have visited the scene, hardly anyone knows him.

Recalling that scene a few days ago when she accidentally saw Lucas pulling Zhao Shun and whispering together, not just once, Dais seemed to grasp some kind of feeling.

Something’s definitely up!

For some reason, guided by a woman’s intuition, she instinctively cast her gaze towards Nicole.

She saw Nicole leaning next to Zhao Shun, watching him use a magical method to roll dough, Dais quietly walked over and patted her on the shoulder.

"Hmm?"

Nicole turned back quizzically, "What’s up, Dais?"

"Come over here, I’ll show you something."

"Okay."

The two walked a few meters aside, Dais showing the paused frame on her phone screen.

"Did you watch this episode?"

Nicole shook her head, "Not yet."

"Then take a closer look at this episode’s frame."

"Frame?" Nicole looked even more puzzled, leaning closer to examine it meticulously, "Is there an issue, doesn’t seem like anything’s... huh?"

She pointed to Zhao Shun, surrounded by many baked products, only showing half a side silhouette, and glanced at the back surrounded by servers.

"Previous video covers haven’t included people’s images, right?"

"You noticed too!"

Dais smiled with deep meaning, looking straight into her eyes.

"Talk about your judgment, why did Lucas go against the norm this time, and included Zhao’s image in the title instead of using the chefs’ images?"

"Uh..."

Nicole pinched her fair chin, furrowed her brows, thought for a moment, then responded uncertainly.

"Could it be because the key figure of this episode is Zhao? Doing the baking beans thing, indeed centering around him would be better, plus it was him who did it."

"Then according to your saying, every previous video should feature Chef Lin’s image, right?"

"True, if it’s not for this reason, what else could it be... wait, could it be?!"

Thinking of something, Nicole turned back again, this time looking not at Zhao Shun’s direction but at Lucas hidden among the crowd.

Sure enough, Lucas was, like usual, filming the bun-making scene with the camera raised, but his lens focused on Zhao’s side, completely ignoring Chen’s existence.

Dais saw this scene too, the two women followed Lucas’s shooting angle and found several servers looking at Zhao with eyes full of curiosity and admiration.

"?!"

"I figured it out!!"

The two almost simultaneously got it, their eyes brightening.

The next second, Nicole’s fair and smooth face turned visibly flushed at a fast pace.

She finally figured out why Dais asked her this question and not anyone else.

Dais giggled as she leaned her head over, lowered her voice to inquire, "Nicole, you haven’t been doing much lately, so how’s it, still interested in the chef?"

"Shh!! Keep your voice down!!"

Clearly, Dais’s voice was already low enough for only her to hear, yet Nicole nervously covered her mouth, sheepishly glancing around before exhaling a long sigh of relief because nobody noticed them.

"Of course, I am interested, wouldn’t disappear so quickly, wouldn’t that be too fickle?"

Nicole’s cheeks were slightly red, showing some embarrassment.

"But the chef isn’t interested in me at all, doesn’t even give a chance to understand."

"I originally thought he’s just not interested in me, but after observing during these days, found he’s not interested in any woman, not just us Western females, even the two Great Xia girls, the chef didn’t look at them more than once."

"Isn’t the chef fond of women?"

"Pfft..."

Dais couldn’t help but laugh, hurriedly covered her mouth, then cautiously glanced at Lin Chen quietly making buns beside the steamer.

"Definitely not, the chef absolutely likes women, but I can’t detail too much, after all, it’s his privacy, can only say you need to observe carefully, maybe now the chef is focused on work, not thinking about dating?"

She dared to speak confidently because there’s evidence, just inconvenient to tell others, careful observation will lead anyone to find out.

Men, when having normal sexual orientation, will always have moments they can’t control their eyes.

Even if it’s just a brief second.

This requires keen observation to uncover, saying it from her mouth would make him seem sleazy, damaging reputation, moreover, he is her immediate superior.

"I see," Nicole nodded thoughtfully, "As long as he’s not solely uninterested in me, then I’m relieved, had lost confidence quite a lot recently!"

While they were secretly talking, Zhao Shun was enjoying the peak moment of his life.

Surrounded by a dozen curvy foreign girls, their gazes sparkling with admiration, his masculine confidence surged, standing upright.

Not to mention the foreign girls, even the two Great Xia girls were quite curiously watching him.

"How long did you practice this move to learn it?"

"I practiced for two summers, only learned to roll one sheet, if I could learn this move, next time the seven aunts and eight uncles would have nothing to say."

Zhao Shun was also hearing them speak Chinese for the first time, their voices are indeed pleasant, plus they’re beautiful and young, couldn’t help but look a few more times.

"This move? Specifically practicing could be as short as two or three days, or as long as several weeks, months, or even years, but the pre-requisite is finding the feel for rolling the dough."

He didn’t say how long he practiced, just briefly explained the situation, this vague answer made the two women glance at him more.

They thought he’d brag or something, not expecting him to lightly brush it off, wasn’t he doing it to show off?

Everyone is Great Xia People, understanding Zhao Shun’s little thoughts was clear to them, but didn’t expect him to be quite low-key, probably just wanting to showcase Great Xia’s technique.

Thinking this way, Zhao Shun suddenly appeared more agreeable to them.

When abroad, it’s necessary to have more people maintaining the national culture, while giving the country a good face, also giving them compatriots a good face, making work more dignified.

"Could I add your V later? Would love to learn this hand-roll dough technique, could teach?"
