Chapter 002 Dreams and Reality (Part Two)

In this world, every person who harbors dreams emits a light of those dreams; the stronger your pursuit of dreams, the more dazzling the radiance becomes

Perhaps, in the future, Bai Bai will become an extraordinary person

At this moment, a female classmate beside her quietly said to the complaining customer, "Hey, be careful, don't forget that this guy has a dual personality; he can change his demeanor in an instant."

Upon seeing the young girl, Bai Bai furrowed her brows in surprise and said, "Bai Xiaoqian? What is she doing here?"

At the entrance of the dormitory on the second floor of the restaurant, a man, appearing to be around 30 years old and looking disheveled and intoxicated, rolled down the stairs, coming to a stop only at the bottom of the staircase

Bai Bai hurriedly came out from the kitchen, covering the man's mouth with one hand, laughing as she spoke, while dragging him into the kitchen.

Once upon a time, it seemed that Uncle Zhong also radiated such brilliance. However, as time passed, that light was gradually washed away by the years, until it completely vanished.

He was actually bare-chested, wearing nothing at all

The man, hearing the scream, was unfazed and slowly turned to look at the group of high school girls. He then revealed a foolish grin and waved, saying: "Hi, beautiful, could I get your phone number? Just one number... just one... um! Um um!"

A few high school girls let out a sharp scream, quickly covering their eyes with their hands, yet peeking through their fingers to catch a glimpse of the man's well-defined muscles

Bai Bai revealed a foolish smile, yet this very smile left Uncle Zhong somewhat stunned. It was as if he saw a dazzling white light emanating from Bai Bai, as if he were an angel from another world

Suddenly, a cacophony of sounds and a scream came from the second-floor staircase outside the kitchen

Can the school teach me culinary skills? My dream is to become the world's number one chef

Ah! Rogue!

Uncle Zhong, upon hearing Bai Bai's words, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat on his forehead: "What does your family do? The mafia?"

Uncle Zhong stood to the side, staring with his small eyes, watching Bai Bai chop vegetables with an intensity that seemed almost like a duel, feeling a bit embarrassed. He couldn't help but ask, "Bai Bai, there's actually a question I've always wanted to ask you: who did you learn your knife skills from?"

However, when he saw Bai Bai again, the light on him had vanished

A strong aroma of red wine wafted from the man's mouth, immediately causing the fair-skinned individual across from him to raise his eyebrows in surprise. He was certain that the red wine this fellow had consumed was definitely from Bordeaux, and it also carried a hint of a metallic odor.

"Brother Tianyu, as the owner of the restaurant, is it really okay for you to be like this every day?" Bai Bai's face was filled with disdain.

Let go, let go of me, I just want a phone! Who is it, who is blocking my mouth! Hmm? Is it Bai Bai? Uh!

Bai Bai looked in the direction pointed out by Uncle Zhong and saw a girl wearing a graffiti-style leather jacket with silver studs along the collar, a tight-fitting white T-shirt underneath, deep blue slim-fit jeans, and white skate shoes, topped with a silver cap adorned with large shiny metal decorations.

The man known as Brother Tianyu chuckled and said, "What's wrong with that? One must enjoy life to the fullest when things are going well. With you all here, what do I have to worry about?" As he spoke, he tilted the bottle towards his mouth, "Hmm? No more wine? I'll go open another bottle. Hahaha! An eighteen-year-old girl is like a flower! A—flower!"

With a perplexed expression, Bai Bai adjusted the scarf on her head and followed the silhouette of Bai Xiaoqian as she walked out

The girl named Bai Xiaoqian locked eyes with Bai Bai and immediately recognized him. She hurriedly waved at him and then walked out of the restaurant.

With a silly grin, he continued to fixate on the shredded radish on the cutting board, as if it were the enemy he needed to conquer at www.hetushu.com.com

The man stood up, and the casual blazer draped over him slipped off, revealing his solidly built muscles and six captivating abdominal muscles

Suddenly, a fair and slender hand covered the man's mouth, dragging him towards the kitchen. Immediately, someone awkwardly laughed and said, "Ahahaha! I’m really sorry, we scared everyone. Our boss drank too much yesterday, please don’t take it to heart. Hahaha! Hahaha!"

Although this man is not particularly outstanding in appearance, he can still be considered handsome. He has a distinctive little braid, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his skin is a light yellow. Especially the sparse stubble on his face adds a touch of masculinity to him

The man opened his pale hand, turned his head to see him, and revealed a tipsy smile, letting out a burp.

Ah! I have been learning the art of knife skills for over ten years; however, in the past, I used it to cut people, and now I use it to cut vegetables

Uncle Zhong was somewhat incredulous and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

Knock knock! Oh dear!

Ah. Uncle Zhong was stunned for a long time, feeling as if his tongue was about to tie itself in knots. "Then why do you insist on working at our restaurant? Moreover, considering your age, you should still be in school, right? Why aren't you attending school?"

However, no matter how good a woman's figure is, she cannot be regarded as a woman in the eyes of Bai Bai.

Bai Xiaoqian? How did you find this place

"Bai Bai, the owner of the establishment has run away!" Bai Xiaoqian rushed over and grabbed Bai Bai's shoulder, speaking urgently.

Looking at the restaurant owner, Brother Tianyu, who is tipsy and singing a little tune with a sense of reluctance, I cover my face in despair, feeling deeply anxious, "Ah, I really don't know how he has managed to live until now"

What Uncle Zhong had just seen was a person completely engulfed in a white radiance.

"Forget it, let's not worry about him for now. Baibai, that girl outside has been looking over here, is she looking for you?" Uncle Zhong patted Baibai's shoulder and pointed to the girl standing in the restaurant, gazing towards the kitchen.

The white, swift kitchen knife, like a bolt of lightning, suddenly came to a halt, looking somewhat astonished at Uncle Zhong. After a moment, it smiled faintly and continued chopping vegetables, "It's quite similar to the underworld; after all, they also spend their days wielding knives and guns."

And he also understood that the light that had just emanated from Bai Bai was, in fact, the light of dreams

Ah! The customer was taken aback for a moment and immediately closed their mouth

As soon as she stepped out of the restaurant, the curvaceous and charming figure of Bai Xiaoqian caught Bai Bai's eye.

The sudden clamor immediately drew the attention of many customers who were having breakfast. The librarian from Dahe initially looked at the man with surprise, which gradually transformed into calmness, and finally turned into disdain as he turned his head to continue eating his breakfast

"What is going on? Another drop every day? Is this a side show prepared for us customers?" said a male patron in the restaurant

Moments later, a rich array of expressions appeared on his face

Bai Bai suddenly froze, remaining unresponsive for a long time

He went from calm to confusion, then from confusion to astonishment, from astonishment to disbelief, and finally, in disbelief, he gasped with his mouth wide open, furrowing his brow and twisting his mouth, uttering a sound: "Huh?"

In the kitchen, the chef was energetically wielding a knife, slicing the radish on the cutting board into shreds as thin as a cicada's wings, exuding the demeanor of a professional chef

So your dream is to become a chef? Hahaha, that's great. I hope you can make your dream come true. Uncle Zhong revealed a heartfelt smile, as if he were seeing a younger version of himself.

The phrase "love it or leave it" may appear somewhat rude and unreasonable at first glance, yet it evokes a sense of amusement and familiarity from the heart. It allows guests who come here to feel much more relaxed and casual, as if they have arrived home

The man staggered to his feet, clutching a black empty wine bottle in his hand. His expression was slightly tipsy, and he absently scratched his head, appearing somewhat dazed
