Chapter 175 Named Chengfu
Not long after, He Youlong came out.
The bottle of slimming pills that Li Quan gave him was gone. Li Quan guessed that He Youlong might have stored the slimming pills in the refrigerator.
Anyway, everything that needs to be said has been said. Li Quan has no control over how He Youlong deals with the gift.
If He Youlong thinks the packaging is poor and doesn't believe in the effectiveness and safety of the weight-loss pills, and ultimately doesn't take them, that would be He Youlong's own loss.
"The first dish is here! It's called Dragon Fish for Good Luck, which means good luck and great wealth."
After the chef in white clothes and a tall hat cooked the first dish, he personally brought it to the table.
I heard that in hotels above three stars, the higher the hat the chef wears, the higher his level.
The hat worn by this chef is nearly thirty centimeters high.
Generally speaking, the hat of an ordinary chef is only 10.5 cm high. The hat of a higher-level chef is about 25 cm high. The hat of a more senior chef is as high as 29.5 cm.
It is certain that the chef hired by He Youlong's family is at least at the level of a head chef.
Maybe even the head chef.
The chef was about 50 years old, with a belly as round as that of Buddha, and arms as thick as Li Quan's thighs.
The folded fat on the face can create the artistic conception of a landscape painting.
Maybe as a chef I can cook all kinds of delicious food, so I can’t resist eating too much and gain weight without realizing it.
"Nine out of ten cooks are fat, and one is a weight."
This was a joke that Li Quan had once heard.
But it is enough to show that most chefs are fat.
"Boss, Mrs. He, distinguished guests, please try it and see if it suits your taste." After the chef brought the dish to the table, he looked at the three people expectantly.
He Youlong must have told him that he would entertain a distinguished guest tonight.
So the chef was particularly respectful to Li Quan.
"Doctor Li, you are the guest, please start eating first!" He Youlong smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
"This...isn't appropriate!" How could Li Quan use his guest to bully the host? He still knew the basic courtesy.
"You are the savior of my child and me. We would feel guilty if you didn't start eating first. Please don't be polite when you come to my house." He Youlong's wife also advised with a smile.
"Then... I'll respectfully obey your command!" Li Quan no longer refused and picked up a piece of meat from the fish tail with a smile.
Don't clamp your head or your waist, this also has its own rules.
Be humble and you will be welcomed everywhere.
He put it in his mouth and tasted it. At first he didn't feel anything special, but after taking a careful bite, he found it sweet and soft, yet a little chewy, with the right amount of saltiness, color, aroma and taste.
This was the first time he tasted such delicious fish.
Everyone was looking at him, waiting for his comments.
"Mm, delicious! Sweet and tasty, moderately salty, and most importantly, not as tender as other fish, quite chewy, it's truly a delicacy! Don't laugh at me, but this is the first time in my life that I've eaten such delicious, tasty, and special fish."
This was the first dish. If Li Quan just said it was delicious, it would be too perfunctory.
It will also chill the hearts of the host and the chef.
Because they entertained Li Quan warmly and served the best dishes, didn't they just want him to enjoy the meal?
"Haha, Doctor Li is not only an expert in medicine, but also a great writer. This dragon fish brings good luck, it's Chef Liu's signature dish, no one else can cook it this well."
He Youlong was also very happy to hear Li Quan praising the dish.
There was a lot of pride in his words.
The atmosphere at the banquet instantly became much more harmonious, and the guests were having a great time.
Everyone is not so restrained anymore.
Chef Liu worked so hard to prepare his signature dish and received praise from the guests, and he was grinning from ear to ear.
"Enjoy your meal while I cook other dishes. If Doctor Li wants to eat something, just tell me to make it for you. Boss He has already told me to cook whatever Doctor Li wants."
In addition to being respectful, Chef Liu's attitude towards Li Quan also contained a touch of genuine enthusiasm.
In fact, Li Quan did nothing but praise the first dish appropriately. In the end, both the host and the guests were very happy and the chef was all smiles.
This is a manifestation of high emotional intelligence.
Next, He Youlong took out what he considered to be the most precious aged wine and French red wine to entertain Li Quan.
Delicious dishes were constantly served.
There were twelve dishes in total, which made Li Quan taste all the delicacies in the world and even made his stomach full.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, we had almost finished eating and it was time to leave.
Li Quan prepared to get up and say goodbye.
"Doctor Li, could you please give my child a name?" He Youlong's wife requested.
"Thank you for your concern, Doctor Li!" He Youlong had already prepared a red envelope and respectfully presented it on the table in front of Li Quan.
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Li Quan looked at the baby in the cradle. The baby had a chubby little face and was sleeping soundly.
After thinking carefully for a moment, he said this.
"He was born in great adversity, but fortunately, after being treated, he came into this world safely. As the saying goes, those who survive great adversity will be blessed in the future. Those who are entrusted with great missions must first be toiled, starved, and tempered. At such a young age, he has endured many hardships that ordinary people would never experience in their lifetime. Can we call him He Chengfu?"
Li Quan gave the child a name.
It is not known whether Mr. and Mrs. He Youlong are satisfied.
"If you endure pain, you will be rewarded. Is that what you mean?" He Youlong looked like a businessman at this moment, with shrewdness and wisdom in his eyes.
"Yes, that's the gist of it! Actually, I have another meaning. Although I don't have a close relationship with you and have only met you twice, I think you are honest and kind. I hope your children will continue your virtues, wealth and good fortune in the future."
Li Quan said with a smile.
"Good, very good! What do you think of this name, madam?"
He Youlong asked his wife for her opinion.
"Um!"
Ms. Wu is the type of good wife and mother who is polite and wise.
She didn't express any opinion just now.
Instead, she waited for her husband to make the decision.
No wonder her relationship with He Youlong has always been so good.
It makes sense that He Youlong has always doted on her.
"It's settled. From now on, my son's name will be He Chengfu, and we will go to the hospital to get a birth certificate tomorrow." He Youlong really liked this name with profound meaning.
He had a fortune, so naturally he hoped that his son would inherit it and carry on the family business.
"Well, it 's getting late. Thank you for your hospitality today, my dear wife. Bye!" Li Quan's steps were a little unsteady and shaky.
After drinking glass after glass of wine, he was already a little drunk.
"I'll ask the driver to take you home! This red envelope with the name is just a small token of my appreciation, you must accept it no matter what!" He Youlong quickly stood up to see him off.
Li Quan did not take the red envelope on the table.
This clearly shows that they are not prepared to accept it.
“Ah… oh…”
At this moment, a suppressed scream came from behind. It seemed to be Chef Liu screaming.
He Youlong's expression changed slightly. Could it be that Chef Liu was scalded by the boiling oil?
