I run a hotel in Huangshan

Chapter 66: Foodie Nature
Han Qingyue felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, and she only regretted not letting Ma Zhiming follow her.

"Haha," Sun Haofei finally couldn't hold it in anymore, "Mr. Han, I won't tease you anymore! If I tease you again, I'm afraid you will hit me with your high heels. After Ruilin called me and told me that your hotel wanted to cooperate with me, I discussed it with several shareholders, and everyone is optimistic about Qingxin." Sun Haofei's voice was as mellow as fermented aged wine.

"So you were teasing me just now? Have you decided to cooperate with our hotel?" Han Qingyue came back to her senses in an instant.

Sun Haofei nodded slightly and said nothing.

"Mr. Sun, I didn't expect you to be so..." Han Qingyue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"So naughty, huh? Yes, if you get to know me for a long time, you will know that I am a bit frivolous, haha!" Sun Haofei said as he turned sideways and started the car.

"I'll take you to a place I believe you'll like." He said lightly, as if what happened just now had never happened.

Han Qingyue looked at him, moved her lips, and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it. She tilted her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

She thought, no wonder Sun Haofei and Peng Ruilin are friends, they really look alike. However, he said he was old and not serious, but he didn't look old, at most in his thirties.

After driving along the forest path, the view suddenly opens up.

"Have you been here, Mr. Han?" Sun Haofei asked casually.

"No." Han Qingyue shook her head.

But she had heard of this place. Deep in the forest, birds chirped and streams gurgled, creating a fairyland on earth. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, shimmering on the fallen trees, coating the earth in a golden cloak, a scene that made one linger.

It was said that many couples liked to come here for dates, but she didn't have the time or the leisure to indulge in romance. So, she had only heard of it.

Wherever their car passed, there were couples in groups of three or four leaning against each other and whispering.

Han Qingyue curled her lips and muttered, "Why are so many people showing off their affection?"

When Sun Haofei heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

The car slowly circled the area, headed up to a higher place, and stopped in front of a carved iron gate.

The security guard came over, saluted Sun Haofei, opened the door and let him in.

Han Qingyue suddenly realized that this should be Sun Haofei's restaurant.

After entering the hospital and getting out of the car, Han Qingyue couldn't help but sigh, this is really a great place.

Everything here seems pristine, with a patchwork of scenery. The randomly placed tables and chairs are made of logs, exuding a faint fragrance, simple and natural. The bright sunshine is refreshing.

What people need and like most nowadays is this kind of original ecology.

Han Qingyue took a deep breath of the air here and felt very refreshed.

"Mr. Sun, this is your restaurant, right? It's really beautiful here!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Han. I'm honored that you like it! Please wait here for a moment. I will cook two of my signature dishes for you today!" Sun Haofei said as he poured a glass of lemonade for Han Qingyue.

"Thank you, Mr. Sun. It's my honor to eat the food you personally cooked!" Han Qingyue took the cup with both hands and thanked him. In the sunlight, Han Qingyue's eyes sparkled, which was very touching. Sun Haofei was stunned for a long time before he said, "Mr. Han, can you please call me Haofei instead of Mr. Sun?"

"How can that be! You are much older than me!" Han Qingyue objected as a matter of course.

Sun Haofei pondered for a moment and said slowly, "I'm not that much older, only about ten years older. But if you really don't want to, you can call me Brother Haofei. It sounds more intimate than Mr. Sun. I won't call you Mr. Han anymore, I'll call you Qingyue!"

"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Haofei!" Han Qingyue said readily.

The sound of "Brother Haofei" made Sun Haofei feel more relaxed. He walked into the restaurant briskly and brought out two dishes a few minutes later.

One dish is stinky mandarin fish and the other is Hu Shi Yipin hot pot.

"Qingyue, there will be two more dishes later. They are made by the chef in our restaurant. These two dishes are made by me. You can try them first!" Sun Haofei picked up the chopsticks and looked at her with a smile.

Han Qingyue was indeed hungry. Seeing the delicious food, she was eager to try it. She first tasted the stinky mandarin fish, "Hmm, delicious! It tastes great!" Han Qingyue praised sincerely. This was not her first time to eat stinky mandarin fish, but the one made by Sun Haofei tasted quite delicious.

"Do you like it? If you do, eat more." Sun Haofei's eyes were filled with unconcealed admiration. "Qingyue, you know, this dish takes at least a week to prepare from fresh fish to the table. Raw mandarin fish has a stronger smell, but after fermenting and spoiling, the mandarin fish is briefly fried in hot oil and then stewed in the sauce. Once cooked, it's actually not that smelly anymore."

"It's not very smelly, just a little bit!" Han Qingyue commented.

"That's right, slightly stinky, delicious garlic meat is the most classic evaluation of stinky mandarin fish. It smells stinky, but tastes very fragrant. Use chopsticks to separate the fish meat, and its meat is in the shape of garlic cloves, tender and delicious. One bite is so delicious that you can't help but want to take a second bite." Sun Haofei continued to introduce it to Han Qingyue.

Han Qingyue nodded while eating, and her expression of enjoyment was the greatest compliment to Sun Haofei.

"Try this, the Yipin Pot. This dish uses common ingredients. It uses dried vegetables as the base, and adds braised pork, chicken pieces, spare ribs, quail eggs, handmade egg dumplings, mushrooms, etc. It is a combination of meat and vegetables, and is stacked layer by layer, usually 5, 7, or 9 layers. It can be said that this pot satisfies a variety of tastes. You can turn it down layer by layer with the mood of digging for treasure, and then dip it in the soup to eat." Sun Haofei became more and more interested as he spoke.

Han Qingyue picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth. It was fat but not greasy, lean but not dry. The rich taste seemed to dance on the tip of her tongue, leaving people with an endless aftertaste.

Sun Haofei looked at her and admired her more and more. Without the halo of the general manager of Qingxin Hotel and the business woman, she was just a lovely little girl. Even the way she ate was so cute, real and natural.

Sun Haofei couldn't help but dislike such an outstanding woman, but he was very sensible and knew that he and Han Qingyue could only maintain a friendship and partnership. She looked pure and gentle, but she was a girl who was not easy to mess with.

The afternoon sun was beautiful, shining brightly and shimmering on Han Qingyue's face.

"Don't you want to eat?" Han Qingyue's voice interrupted his thoughts.

Sun Haofei woke up from his YY, holding the chopsticks in his hand, but didn't move. He just kept looking at her, "I'll eat later..."

"Then I don't care. I'll continue eating." Han Qingyue laughed, with something in her mouth and her cheeks puffed out. She looked very playful and cute. She was completely different from the elegant and refined President Han in her daily life. She didn't look like a lady at all, and she wasn't reserved at all.

Foodies are most afraid of encountering delicious food. Han Qingyue also enjoyed the next two dishes, the country chicken pot and tiger fur tofu, very much.

However, after finishing their meal, Han Qingyue put the main goal of this trip on the agenda. Eating and enjoying the beautiful scenery were not the most important things. The most urgent task was to get Sun Haofei to sign a contract with Qingxin Hotel. Writing it down in black and white was far more reassuring than a verbal promise.

Seeing Sun Haofei also put down his chopsticks, Han Qingyue took out the cooperation proposal from her bag, stood up and presented it with both hands: "Come, take a look, Mr. Sun!"
