Come and pick me up right now.

Boss, I’m in Zhuozhou.

Hello?

Why did Mr. Lu return to Suhai so suddenly?

Miss Li, I’m not clear about this, either.

He just called me on his way…

You

book the latest flight and go back at once.

He can’t be alone.

OK.

I’ll stay here to deal with the rest.

OK, I got it.

Find out

the reason for his return,

and then call me.

Is that appropriate?

If the chairman asks for it,

will you report?

I got it.

Boss, you’re back.

So fast.

What happened?

Sit with me for a while.

Is it beautiful?

Matsuhashi No.1

is beautiful, of course.

But I can’t feel it at all.

Go wrap up

my work at Bauhinia.

I got it.

What’s next?

Get out of here.

Get out of here.

I was admiring the mountain view from the tower ♪

I heard the chaos outside the city ♪

The banners fluttered ♪

It turned out to be Sima’s soldiers ♪

Miss Gu.

I heard you hurt your leg.

I’m here to see you.

Manager Shen.

I’m no longer working at Bauhinia.

And you’re no longer my boss.

We two are not good enough

to come to my home unannounced, right?

Look, Miss Gu,

perhaps our fate

is not really over?

= Letter of Appointment =

Letter of Appointment?

Why do you suddenly want me to go back?

You don’t have a job, right?

I thought you said finding a job was easy,

then why are you still at home?

I like to stay at home.

It’s comfortable.

Shengnan.

I came here today

just to give you an out.

I advise you

to go down quickly,

otherwise you’ll lose the chance.

Well, since you’re being so straight.

I won’t hold back.

A raise, 20%.

If a cent less,

it’s okay.

Well, I won’t hold back, either.

I told you I had it covered.

And $1,000

more than you expected.

How’s that?

It seems that the Bauhinia

could not find

a better chef than me.

Now that Manager Shen has paid a special visit,

I will

reluctantly accept it.

No.

Don’t do the hard thing.

If it is hard for you, let’s forget it

Who will have problems with money, right?

Give it to me.

Didn’t I give it to you?

I hope you get well soon.

Thanks.

Then when you get up tomorrow morning

I’m back.

Miss Gu,

are you back on the job again?

I just took a minor vacation.

But I didn’t realize the hotel needs me so much.

Then,

at the expense of my own small interests,

I returned to work.

I’m glad you are back.

But could you stop bragging.

Whatever.

Prepare for meals.

Got it.

What kind of connections does Gu Shengnan have?

She’s back again.

The guest in 1123 has already left, right?

Got a new patron so soon?

Mr. Liu.

You don’t know that.

Now the little girl

can get a new one fast.

I tell you.

Gu Shengnan

has a strong relation.

Let’s not talk about

a little girl behind her.

It’s not easy for a little girl to find a job.

Just behave ourselves.

My dishes?

Wow, I get the dishes

by just writing casual.

Thanks.

What’s the matter with you?

Enjoy.

OK. Thanks.

Miss Li.

I have found out everything this time.

Our boss came back just to

book a plane ticket

to Switzerland for tomorrow.

It’s a hell of an undercover job.

I can’t afford to offend either side.

Miss Li, are you still there?

Miss Li? Miss Li?

Yes.

Trumpet.

What’s going on here?

I’ve just been away for a while.

I just heard

that a new boss

will definitely come to inspect.

We must

make a good impression, right?

Come on.

You must make a showing.

Come on, guys. Be quiet.

Let me make an introduction.

Mr. Cheng, the new general manager of our hotel.

Hello, everyone.

Hello, general manager.

What’s the matter?

Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

I was worried for nothing.

Tell me,

did you arrange for me

to come back to work?

As much as I’d like to claim it,

but it’s not me.

I get it.

No showing off.

I get it.

Shengnan,

if you

need any help from me

just tell me.

I will try my best.

I will definitely ask you for help.

Be patient.

Now,

can I go back to work?

I need you to help me right now.

Just tell me.

Well.

Fussy Lu who bought our hotel

Lu Jin.

Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu.

Will he go back to the hotel?

I don’t know.

But the deal has been signed.

Also now I’m in office.

I suppose

Mr. Lu must have something else to do.

You two know each other?

No.

Yes.

I’ve offended him before,

so

It’s okay. I’m going back to work.

By the way,

you can’t keep anything from me.

Yeah, go ahead.

No showing off.

You know what?

The driver and the boss

seem to be going back to Switzerland.

The bad driver

will finally be getting out of my sight.

I’m so relieved.

Is he really leaving?

Yes.

I heard that

Lu Jin took a taxi for more than 10 hours

to come back from Zhuozhou.

Meng Xinjie said when he washed the clothes,

he found something

like corn kernels.

He was covered in dust.

You can see how much he suffered

before he came here.

But Lu Jin,

I really do not understand.

Kiss and run.

I scolded him.

What should I do?

Let me ask you.

Do you like him?

I just

can’t bear to let him go.

If I think about this,

I just feel sad.

Lu Jin.

He’s old.

Garrulous.

Fussy.

Right.

He’s a bad sign for me.

Nothing good has happened since I met him.

But

But

What?

Keep him if you like him,

and let him go if you don’t.

I like him.

You like him?

Then pursue him.

What are you going to do?

The first prerequisite

is to keep him.

I think he could read your dishes?

Then you can

make a dish

that symbolizes love.

Before he gets on the plane,

you serve it to him.

It all depends on the dish.

Exciting?

Reliable?

Yes.

The recipe of Witch’s Brew

is passed down by word of mouth

among Gipsy girls.

Every winter,

they set a pot

in which they put the ingredients

that their lovers like

and simmer with red wine.

So there’s no fixed recipe

for Witch’s Brew.

You put your love in the pot.

It’s called the Flavor Cipher between lovers.

Sorry.

I’ve made it clear.

Their flight will leave at 11 a.m.

So at 8 a.m., they’re leaving

his villa in Suhai.

I have sent the address to you.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Sir.

Matsuhashi No.1 Villa.

Hurry up. Thanks.

Zhaodi.

Is it a right address?

There’s no one here.

I was just about to call you.

Things have changed.

They left early.

They’re probably getting to the airport by now.

Anyway, you still have time.

OK.

Tu, go down the elevated road ahead.

And take the first right.

OK.

No, no, no, Boss.

Why do you want to do that?

That’s a big deal.

It’s morning rush hour.

It’s really heavy.

It’s rush hour now.

I can’t go any faster.

I’m on the way.

It has changed again.

They missed their flight,

and are heading to the high-speed rail station.

They’ll fly back to Switzerland from Hangzhou.

Turn around.

Sir.

Turn around.

The high-speed rail station, not the airport.

Girl.

We can’t turn around here.

If you can’t wait,

get out of the car, go across the street,

and get another cab.

The train to Hangzhou

has stopped check in.

= Matsuhashi No.1 =

Lu Jin.

Good morning.

Li Man.

You’ve been

so secretive lately.

I’m not used to it.

I come to Suhai this time,

mainly to see

if Cheng Ziqian is qualified for this job.

I found the guy, and I’m responsible for him.

Then you should go to work.

What are you doing? Cooking?

Cooking

is just by the way.

I was wondering

if Mr. Lu would be interested in

tasting it.

Okay, I’m hungry anyway.

Thanks.

You’re welcome.

Witch’s Brew.

Any problems?

Is it proper for her to rush in like this?

It’s because Lu Jin didn’t live in Bauhinia.

She misses him.

She wants to give him a surprise.

Don’t be a shock.

If Boss knows

I secretly put her in,

he will k*ll me.

It’s a little inappropriate for me, isn’t it?

Surprise.

Your house is too big.

I looked around twice before I found you.

Mr. Lu.

Did you order takeout

to bring you a cake?

Let me make an introduction.

This is

a very good chef at Bauhinia.

She’s my deputy, Li Man.

Hello.

Hello.

You’re on behalf of the hotel to deliver the cake.

Wait a minute.

Just give me the cake, thanks.

Here you are.

I want to talk to you.

It’s been so long.

They became lovers, right?

I hope so.

Didn’t you two grow up together?

You can blame him before.

Why are you afraid of him?

I’ll do that if he is wrong.

But he didn’t do anything wrong.

He just fell in love.

Why should I blame him?

Our Shengnan

relies on effort of 1%

and luck of 99%.

Others can only envy, but cannot copy.

Admire.

This colleague.

If you have any problem, just say it.

If Mr. Lu can’t help you,

I can help you.

The sensor light in the corridor went out.

Well.

On behalf of

all the kitchen staff of Bauhinia Hotel,

I’d like to extend my best wishes to Mr. Lu.

We wish Mr. Lu

good luck,

fruitfulness

and happiness.

Wait a minute.

Lu Jin.

I forgot to tell you.

Ms. Zheng asked you to give her a video call.

It’s urgent.

OK.

That’s enough.

You’ve cried all the way.

Almost no tears.

Come on.

Calm down.

You scared me.

Just say something.

Say.

I saw a woman

in Lu Jin’s room.

A woman?

Slept with him?

No, I don’t think so.

That’s okay.

That’s normal.

It was worse than that.

I saw Lu Jin

eat the food that the woman cooked for him.

Miss Gu, Miss Gu.

Miss Gu, I can’t follow you.

Where’s the woman from? What dishes?

She is

She is

Maybe Man Li?

It’s Li Man.

Sister, she’s beyond most people.

She’s our deputy general manager.

No wonder I feel overpowering.

She has temperament.

Shengnan.

What did that Li do to you?

She

She thought I sent blessings to the hotel.

She gave me a red envelope.

Who wants that?

Angry.

So much.

Li Man, right?

Why did she come to Suhai?

You don’t know that?

Why?

You’ve sent so much information.

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Well.

Miss Li had already come to Suhai.

Then she went to Zhuozhou

with Mr. Lu.

But she didn’t say anything about

going back to Suhai.

So you’re the snitch.

No.

I can’t help it.

You’re a traitor.

The point is that they have known

each other for more than ten years.

I’ve only been with Mr. Lu for a few years.

But I can assure you.

These years,

they’re not too close.

What about the last few years?

I don’t know that.

But I know

she is our chairman’s handpicked

favorite woman,

The favorite

I think I’m late.

- I think I’m late. - Shut up.

I also saw

I also saw

Lu Jin ate the Witch’s Brew she made.

Soup, soup is okay.

You can eat soup anywhere.

You know what?

It’s Witch’s Brew.

How could Lu Jin take

Witch’s Brew made by other women?

All right, Shengnan.

You got your money back.

That’s

two months’ salary.

Jesus.

You

don’t quarrel with the money.

You put it there. I’ll pick it up.

It looks delicious.

You’re just in time.

I see you

haven’t eaten much all day.

I made it for you.

Wellington steak.

That’s right.

Thank you.

Did you change the ingredients?

No.

It’s exactly the same as before.

I’m not hungry today.

Maybe

Maybe you’re too tired from work.

Well.

Why not having some dessert?

Also the hotel offered

a cake.

Are you interested in it?

OK.

Tortoise.

That’s not appropriate.

No.

The tortoise means

wish me long life.

Gu Shengnan is quite unique.

How did you know she was Gu Shengnan?

You

said that during the day.

When I lived in Bauhinia a while ago,

she almost became my personal chef,

surprising me from time to time.

She’s a really good cook.

Would you like to try it, too?

I lose weight at night.

I forgot to tell you.

When I came to Suhai this time,

Ms. Zheng specifically told me that

Bauhinia Hotel

had been upgraded for a long time.

She asked me to have a look at its operation.

All Right, I’ll keep you company.

OK.

Let’s do it tomorrow.

OK.

Does my mother doubt me?

Of course not.

You should eat less sweet at night.

I’ll go to sleep.

Good night.

Good night.

Is there a trap?

Fussy Lu.

Li Man

makes soup for a man like Lu Jin.

French Cordon Bleu chef.

Who wouldn’t want to marry a woman like that?

Liar.

Liar Fussy Lu.

You said you would only eat food I make.

Liar.

= Fussy Lu =

I’m not getting into your fairy tales.

= No Admittance =

Mr. Lu and Miss Li of Zhenghong Group

inspect the hotel today

and come to the kitchen especially to see you.

Miss Li.

Let me make an introduction for you.

This is the only female chef

in our F&B,

Gu Shengnan.

She’s a very good chef.

When Mr. Lu lived in 1123,

it was because of her

that Mr. Lu stayed.

I heard Mr. Lu always talked about her.

We met yesterday.

She delivered cake to Mr. Lu

on behalf of F&B.

I asked her to represent Bauhinia

to wish Mr. Lu a successful acquisition.

Thanks.

Let’s call it a day.

Thanks for your hard work.

Mr. Lu.

I am a little bit hungry.

How about eating in Bauhinia?

Well, Miss Li

must be hungry. I will arrange the meal.

Don’t prepare specially.

Everyone praises this chef so much.

Could you please do that for us?

It’s delicious.

Won’t you eat it?

I’m no longer hungry now.

I wasn’t hungry, but now I’m getting hungrier.

Gu Shengnan.

Gu Shengnan, hurry up.

Miss Li wants to see you.

Why?

I’m sure it’s meant to be a compliment.

Let’s go, hurry up.

Go.

Are you done?

Miss Li, Mr. Lu.

Our Chef Gu is here.

I invited you here

to talk to you about

Wellington steak.

I’m a little curious as to

why you replaced the little russet mushroom

between the pastry and the beef

with the shiitake mushroom?

Because it tastes good.

I took a taste.

The taste

is special.

But it doesn’t make it right.

You put the local shiitake mushroom

and Australian imported Filet together.

they match?

I don’t know.

I just think it’s good.

That’s just subjective assumption.

There are objective standard for suitability.

The objective standard

is not my own words.

It’s through countless attempts,

countless adjustments, countless tastings,

and finally received worldwide recognition

and unified implementation.

For example, Almas Caviar

and Chardonnay are a perfect match.

If you put caviar

and Erguotou together,

they match?

I know

you want to innovate.

Every chef

wants to have his own creative dishes.

But it doesn’t mean you can mess around.

You can be creative.

But you have to choose

imported ingredients that match the standard.

Such a simple truth.

You didn’t learn it in school?

I forgot to ask.

Which school did you graduate from?

Miss Li.

Our Chef Gu

is well-educated.

She studied in Le Cordon Bleufor.

I also studied in

Le Cordon Bleufor a while.

We’re schoolmates.

Which year were you in?

Li Man, that’s enough.

We’re not schoolmates.

I have never been to Paris.

I was in the Shanghai campus.

I know nothing about the rest.

But my teacher taught me that

freshness is the most important thing.

Local shiitake mushroom is much younger

than russet mushroom.
