I run a hotel in Huangshan

Chapter 91 Anhui Cuisine Feast
Under the light, the expression on Jiang Yunkai's face was clear, his brows were tightly furrowed, he looked calm, but there were undercurrents surging inside.

After a moment, he straightened up, walked closer to Han Qingyue, stared at her deeply, and whispered: "Qingyue, I'm sorry. I..."

"I know everything, I don't blame you!" Han Qingyue interrupted him and spoke first.

Lu Siqing seemed not to mind, but in fact he was listening to their conversation with his ears perked up.

He admired Han Qingyue's free and easy style, magnanimity, and clear distinction between love and hate.

"You know everything?" Jiang Yunkai couldn't believe it.

"Li Qiufeng said that you are a policeman. Is he right?" Han Qingyue asked.

Jiang Yunkai smiled and nodded silently.

"It's all over. From now on, we'll all be fine." Han Qingyue said with relief.

"Thank you, Qingyue!" After saying this, Jiang Yunkai turned his head away. Shame and emotion almost made him cry.

"Splash!" A dull sound of falling into the water was heard not far away, and it was particularly clear in the quiet villa area.

The three of them looked towards the lotus pond and found that Ge Jiajia was missing.

"Oh no, she jumped in!" Han Qingyue was the first to react.

Jiang Yunkai came to his senses and ran towards the lotus pond. Han Qingyue and Lu Siqing followed him. Han Qingyue called 120 as they walked.

When Jiang Yunkai rescued Ge Jiajia, she was so weak that she was almost unrecognizable.

Not long after, the 120 ambulance arrived and two doctors carried Ge Jiajia on board.

Jiang Yunkai followed him into the car, and Han Qingyue told him to call her if he needed help.

In the darkness of the night, the ambulance with its red lights flashing disappeared at the intersection, taking away Ge Jiajia and all the grudges of the past.

Han Qingyue thought that no matter how evil she was, she shouldn't have to pay the price with her life. She still hoped that she could get better and return to a normal life.

"Xiao Yueyue, let's go! I'm starving and want to eat something."

"Okay, let's go back and make braised pork together!"

"Let me do it, you rest!"

"it is good!"

The two of them hugged each other as they walked into the villa. Their happy figures were reflected on the floor-to-ceiling windows, which was very beautiful.

That evening, Jiang Yunkai sent a message saying Ge Jiajia was not in immediate danger of death, but her heart condition had worsened after the ordeal. He planned to stay and wait for her to recover before returning to Beijing.

Han Qingyue, with good intentions, decided not to pursue the matter, thinking that Ge Jiajia's actions hadn't truly harmed her. On the eve of Qixi Festival (Chinese Valentine's Day), the Huiwei Chinese Restaurant, a joint venture between the Qingxin Hotel and the "Huiwei" catering company, officially opened. In the restaurant's grand banquet hall, Sun Haofei, the inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of Anhui cuisine, hosted a new dish launch and a mentoring event. Leaders from relevant government departments and culinary associations were invited to attend the event. Peng Ruilin, a mutual friend of Han Qingyue and Sun Haofei, attended as a guest.

The decoration of Huiwei Chinese Restaurant is in the ancient Hui style of architecture with white walls, black tiles and horse head walls. The solid wood tables and chairs are decorated with unique small lanterns and chandeliers, which are very charming. The dishes also adhere to the unique flavor of Hui cuisine.

At the start of the event, Han Qingyue took the stage to deliver a speech. Her voice echoed in the banquet hall like a refreshing spring on a scorching summer day: "In the height of summer, the flower of Anhui cuisine blooms in Huangshan! Today, we gather here to hold this event. It is not only the launch of new Anhui cuisine products, but also a place where famous Anhui chefs can teach their apprentices. It is also an important symbol of the accelerated revitalization of the Anhui cuisine industry..."

After Han Qingyue's speech, Sun Haofei took the stage to introduce the dishes and activities, presented inheritance certificates to 25 outstanding chefs, and organized a collective oath-taking ceremony. Leaders of relevant government departments delivered warm congratulatory speeches.

At the event, Sun Haofei led several outstanding chefs to demonstrate their cooking skills, preparing several famous dishes such as stinky mandarin fish, Huangshan stone ear chicken soup, and Hu Shi Yipin hotpot, and explained the stories behind the famous dishes.

As soon as the stinky mandarin fish made by Sun Haofei was served on the table, a smell that was neither smelly nor stinky hit my nose.

Sun Haofei enthusiastically explained, "I remember gourmets summarizing the characteristics of Anhui cuisine like this: mildly rotten, heavily salted, and lusty. This refers to its heavy emphasis on oil, color, and cooking techniques, as well as its unique penchant for stinky flavors. Legend has it that there are nine levels of odor in the culinary world, and stinky mandarin fish is at the pinnacle, considered the pinnacle of flavor. From fresh fish to table, it takes at least a week to prepare. Raw mandarin fish has a stronger odor, but after fermentation and decay, it's briefly pan-fried in hot oil and then stewed in a broth. Once cooked, it's less stinky. Needless to say, 'smell is worse than taste,' and stinky mandarin fish must be eaten while it's hot! Leaders and guests, please try it!"

Before Sun Haofei finished speaking, a staff member brought cutlery, separated the fish meat, placed it on small plates, and gave it to the leaders and guests to taste.

Next, several outstanding chefs explained the stories behind several dishes, and the staff distributed the prepared dishes to the leaders and guests on site.

In addition to traditional dishes, Sun Haofei also demonstrated the preparation of new dishes such as Xuancheng Brush Pastry and Jiangnan Flowers Blooming, which caused a sensation.

The leaders and guests who participated in the event said that eating a delicious meal was like traveling around Anhui, satisfying both body and soul!
After the event, Han Qingyue, Peng Ruilin, and Sun Haofei, led by Liu Bowen, walked towards the restaurant's private room while chatting. After the three of them entered the room, the waiter brought them three drinks.

"Qingyue, try this. It's a drink we developed ourselves. It's very delicious. I love to drink it every time I come here." Sun Haofei said, pointing to the cup in front of him. When he said this, his expression was half-smile and his tone was like coaxing a child.

Han Qingyue picked up the cup, took a sip, and exclaimed: "Hmm, it's really delicious!"

She was well-spoken and had elegant and steady manners, which made Sun Haofei appreciate her even more.

Facing Sun Haofei's gaze, Han Qingyue was calm and composed, and did not feel uncomfortable because of his scrutiny.

"Qingyue, Haofei, don't you two deserve to thank me? If I hadn't acted as a matchmaker, would you two have been able to work together organically?" Peng Ruilin looked at Sun Haofei and Han Qingyue with a smile, a hint of pride in his eyes.

"That's right, we should thank you, you are a great contributor! To show our gratitude, you can eat for free when you come to our restaurant in the future!" Han Qingyue paused slightly and turned her gaze to Sun Haofei.

"Qingyue, this is a good idea. Ruilin will get a free meal whenever he comes to our restaurant from now on!" Sun Haofei agreed.

Peng Ruilin nodded with satisfaction and bowed to the two of them to express his gratitude.

Han Qingyue continued, "Brother Haofei, today's event is off to a good start. Huiwei and Qingxin are evenly matched. I believe that our strong alliance will definitely create sparks."

Sun Haofei's expression froze for a moment, then he burst into laughter. "I thought President Han would brag about our Huiwei, but I didn't expect President Han to make such bold statements. He praised Huiwei and his own hotel without showing any emotion. President Han is President Han, unique and extraordinary!"

Peng Ruilin chuckled to himself. Sun Haofei was known for his arrogance, and this woman actually spoke like that in front of him. Compared to him, she was even more arrogant.
