Food Wars: My adoptive mother is Nakiri Managi Chapter 048

Ding-a-ling!

The crisp, pleasant sound of the class dismissal bell echoed through the corridor.

“Alright, class dismissed.”

Chu Yang stood up almost without hesitation, without an extra word, and left the cooking classroom directly!

This scene.

Came somewhat suddenly.

So much so that Erina was frozen in place, her eyes full of disbelief.

Meanwhile, the surrounding students began to pack their things, whispering to each other about the new Totsuki lecturer.

Hisako, the girl who always silently guarded Erina, didn’t hesitate at all. She reached out and gently patted her fragrant shoulder, her voice very soft: “Young Lady, are you alright?”

“I’m fine!”

Erina shook her head.

“Hisako, aren’t we still going to Harukatei Restaurant tonight to taste Chef Kikuchi’s senior’s dishes?”

“So, let’s go back and rest.”

After saying that, Erina left the cooking classroom directly.

Hisako, behind her, paused slightly. She felt that the Dragon Dumplings from the recent class and some of Chu Yang’s viewpoints must have stimulated Erina.

However, looking at the gradually disappearing figure, she didn’t have time to think much and quickly left as well!

…

The sky gradually shed its daytime blue.

It began to don deep black satin, dotted with a few early stars, quietly announcing the arrival of night.

At this moment.

Somewhere in Tokyo city.

There was a high-end French restaurant, Harukatei!

Its facade wasn’t ostentatious, yet it exuded a sense of understated luxury.

Upon entering the restaurant, the first thing that caught the eye was the meticulously designed decor. French columns, carvings, lines, and other decorative elements were meticulously arranged, appearing very noble and elegant!

Especially the gentle feeling brought by the light French cream style, presented in a serene and timeless manner.

Dark floors.

Had a strong appeal and expressiveness.

They were a powerful aid in expressing French romance.

And the emphasis on strong lines and symmetrical style created a palatial ambiance.

Chandeliers and wall lamps with complex designs were the finishing touches of the entire space, making the overall coordination look even better.

Finally, the interior space was cleverly laid out, with both spacious dining areas and highly private private rooms, able to meet the needs of different diners.

…

Hmm!

This French restaurant had excellent business.

When Erina and Hisako walked in, only one luxurious private room was left.

Just then, Kikuchi Sonoka, the head chef and owner, came forward with a smile: “Erina, Hisako, you two haven’t been here in a long time!”

“That’s right!”

“Chef Kikuchi.”

“I think it’s been about half a year since we last tasted dishes at Harukatei!”

Hisako quickly replied, clearly very familiar with Kikuchi here.

“Mhm, it has been a while.”

Kikuchi nodded, then led Erina and Hisako to the last private room upstairs, where they could see the bustling outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

“Chef!”

“Can we start serving the dishes now?”

Erina asked impatiently as soon as she sat down.

“Don’t rush, don’t rush, we have important guests tonight.”

Upon hearing this, Kikuchi Sonoka quickly scratched the back of her head and continued with a smile: “To be honest, Rantabi, the WGO executive stationed at the Japan branch, will be visiting our Harukatei later, so…”

“Executive?”

“She… why would she suddenly visit this Harukatei Restaurant?”

“And don’t executives usually visit restaurants anonymously, as ordinary diners, for their evaluations?”

Hisako asked, puzzled.

“She’s been here once before, but she had many questions about my cooking.”

“This time, she probably wants to re-evaluate Harukatei. I also heard that the WGO Japan branch is now fully managed by a young First-Class Executive!”

Kikuchi Sonoka said truthfully.

“First-Class Executive?”

“As expected, WGO headquarters finally sent someone more capable!”

Erina’s eyes flickered, as if she understood something.

…

Before long.

A beautifully dressed waitress came to the private room and whispered something into Kikuchi’s ear.

“They’re here?”

“Then quickly lead them here.”

Kikuchi’s face was a little flustered, and she quickly said to the waitress.

“Yes!”

“Chef.”

So, the waitress retreated.

Soon after, Chu Yang and Rantabi, the two WGO executives, arrived at the private room, led by the waitress.

“Sonoka, it’s been a few days, and you’ve grown even more beautiful!” As soon as she entered, Rantabi seemed particularly familiar, casually found a seat, and then smiled at Kikuchi.

Kikuchi’s face turned red, and she said shyly, “No way!”

“Hehe!”

“Still saying no?”

“I was thinking that scene on your chest, it feels like… Oh, Erina, you’re here too?”

Originally, Rantabi wanted to tease Kikuchi, but then her expression suddenly changed to surprise, and her gaze shifted to the side to Nakiri Erina.

“Chef!”

“I just arrived not long ago.”

Erina quickly responded, but her gaze remained on Chu Yang the entire time.

When she saw Chu Yang walk into the private room with Rantabi, her pretty face instantly showed a fleeting look of astonishment.

She hadn’t expected.

The new lecturer who had greatly shocked her in class.

Would actually be walking with WGO Executive Rantabi?

Could it be that he was the First-Class Executive recently dispatched to Japan, responsible for restaurant evaluation missions?

…

“Erina!”

“What a coincidence, to meet you here too.”

Chu Yang noticed Erina’s gaze constantly scrutinizing him, so he took the initiative to greet her.

“Ah?”

“Mm… mm…”

Erina’s face instantly flushed.

She quickly turned her head away, stammering twice in response.

“You two know each other?”

“That’s great, let me introduce you then.”

“This is Chu Yang, the youngest First-Class Executive in the history of our WGO gourmet organization. He was personally dispatched by Nakiri Mana to Japan, fully responsible for the evaluation missions of major famous restaurants!”

Rantabi quickly introduced him.

And even though she had already guessed Chu Yang’s identity, Erina was still greatly surprised when she heard it with her own ears.

Similarly, Kikuchi Sonoka was also startled.

So this was Chu Yang, the First-Class Executive who had been widely rumored throughout the gourmet world!
