Cao zhishu took his phone and walked straight to his office, leaving his apprentice alone with a Michelin two star Certificate, not knowing what to do.

"Sous-chef, what should we do now?" One of the bosses behind asked.

"There's nothing to do. I'll hang up when master gives the order. You keep it first." The disciple directly put the thing in his hand into the head boy's hand and then said in a carefree manner.

"But, where should I put this?" The leader asked with a bitter face.

"It's simple. Just put them in the storeroom. It's a storeroom that's specially used to store master's certificates, medals, and the like." As the disciple spoke, she began to arrange for people to return to the kitchen.

After all, the kitchen still needed people to work, and lunch time was not far away. It was time to prepare.

On the other side, Cao zhishu walked to his office and closed the door. He then dialed a landline number.

The call was picked up after two rings. A clear and capable female voice came from the other end of the phone."Hello, this is the office of Chairman Zhou of the chef's Association. What's the matter?"

Obviously, it was Zhong Lili on the other end of the phone, while Cao zhishu was calling Zhou Shijie.

However, as the chairman of the chef's Association, Zhou Shijie was naturally not someone who could call his office and ask him to answer the call.

Even though Cao zhishu's SHU restaurant was the best restaurant in Sichuan cuisine, his status was not low either. Therefore, he directly called Zhong Lili, the Secretary.

Of course, if Cao zhishu was looking for Zhang Yan, the chairman of Sichuan cuisine, he could have called Zhang Yan's office directly without the need to transfer the call.

It was also due to the difference in status. After all, not everyone could call Zhou Shijie's private or Office Phone Number as he pleased like Yuan Zhou.

"Excuse me, I'm cao zhishu from Shu restaurant. I'm looking for Chairman Zhou. I have something important to tell you." Cao zhishu said politely.

"Alright, the president is currently in his office. I'll transfer the call to you immediately. Please wait a moment." Zhong Lili said courteously.

After saying that, Zhong Lili covered the phone and knocked on the door of Zhou Shijie's office. Then, she indicated to him who the caller was and answered the call after Zhou Shijie nodded his head.

"Thank you," he said. Zhou Shijie's voice came from the other end of the phone just as Cao zhishu finished his thanks.

"I'm Zhou Shijie. What's the matter?" Zhou Shijie picked up the phone and put down the fountain pen in his hand.

"Hello, Chairman Zhou. I'm cao zhishu from Shu restaurant." Cao zhishu introduced himself again.

"Yes, I know. What's the matter, head chef Cao?" Zhou Shijie asked.

"It's like this. The Michelin's little red books have been distributed. My Shu restaurant has received a two-star rating." Cao zhishu said.

"Although that foreigner doesn't know much about our Chinese food, two stars is still a definite. Congratulations, head chef Cao." Zhou Shijie said with a smile.

"Yes, you're right, President." Cao zhishu first confirmed Zhou Shijie's words and then said,""But as far as I know, head chef Yuan's restaurant didn't get a star rating. What's going on?"

"You came just to ask this?" Zhou Shijie said.

"That's right. After all, I know my own situation. My cooking skills are still a little lacking compared to head chef Yuan 's. Hehe." Cao zhishu touched his bald head in embarrassment.

That's right. Cao zhishu acknowledged Yuan Zhou's craftsmanship in his heart, but he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. After all, Yuan Zhou was one generation younger than him. If one were to think about it, he was afraid that he had wasted his entire life.

"You don't have to worry about him. That kid is very arrogant. He didn't want to give anyone a review, so I had his place removed." Zhou Shijie was quite proud when he spoke of Yuan Zhou.

"So that's how it is. I knew that Michelin chef couldn't be so blind. Even if he was a blind person, he would have to be at least a three-star chef after eating head chef Yuan's dishes." Cao zhishu said as he came to a sudden realization.

"Hahaha, you're right." Zhou Shijie didn't try to avoid the question and said directly with a smile.

"After all, head chef Yuan's culinary skills are unparalleled." Cao zhishu said sincerely.

"You're asking so many questions, just say what you want to say. " Zhou Shijie didn't turn around. He lowered his head to read the documents and then said.

"It's like this. Boss Yuan is the exemplary restaurant of Sichuan cuisine this year, but he doesn't have a Michelin three star rating. So should I hang the plate or not?" Cao zhishu said with some difficulty.

Indeed, Cao zhishu couldn't be blamed for thinking too much. Yuan Zhou was the unsurprisingly exemplary restaurant of Sichuan cuisine this year, but the Michelin restaurant didn't give Yuan Zhou any evaluation. If he did, it would be a little disrespectful to Yuan Zhou and the competition of the exemplary restaurant.

Moreover, even Yuan Zhou didn't die, but Cao zhishu did. He felt a little embarrassed. After all, just like what Cao zhishu had said, he knew that it was no problem for him to match a two-star chef with his level.

However, he was afraid that outsiders would overthink things if they didn't know what was happening.

That was why Cao zhishu asked.

"You're thinking too much. This is your honor. Of course, you can die if you want to. Why do you care about that kid?" Zhou Shijie knew Yuan Zhou's temper and thus said immediately.

"Okay, I got it. I won't disturb Chairman Zhou anymore." Cao zhishu said after a moment of silence.

"Yes." Zhou Shijie first nodded his head and then instructed,""There's a time limit to the Michelin selection. Since you got two stars this time, you can't drop it next time. You have to work hard."

"Yes, President, I understand." Cao zhishu replied.

"Then you can go." After Zhou Shijie said that, he put down the phone.

Cao zhishu looked at the phone and frowned.""So you're saying that I can hang up or not?"

Looking at his phone, Cao zhishu's joy of having just obtained a two-star was no longer obvious. Instead, he was a little dispirited.

At that moment, his phone rang again. The words "Chef Liu" were flashing on the screen.

"The head chef of Zhi Yuan? What's the point of calling at this time?" Cao zhishu answered the phone.

"What's the matter, old Liu?" Cao zhishu was polite and gentle to Zhou Shijie. However, he was much more direct to head chef Liu, who he was familiar with. He asked what was the matter the moment he opened his mouth.

"About the Michelin star." Head chef Liu's voice was hoarse as he replied.

"What's wrong? How many stars did you get?" Cao zhishu said.

"One-star, then the blind one." Head chef Liu mumbled and then said.

"Haha, I got two stars, one star more than you." Cao zhishu immediately showed off in joy.

"That's enough. What do those foreigners say? I have something serious to ask you." Head chef Liu said in frustration.

"What is it?" Cao zhishu had some guesses in his heart, but he did not say anything.

"You know head chef Yuan. I heard that he didn't get a star. Will you hang the Michelin brand?" Head chef Liu said directly.

"I knew it. I've asked Chairman Zhou and he said that it's up to him. Head chef Yuan doesn't care about this." Hearing that, Cao zhishu didn't keep Zhou Shijie in suspense and directly said what he had said.

"After all, the one with the talent comes first. That's fine." Head chef Liu mumbled and was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait a minute. I think it's worth it. With head chef Yuan's personality, I don't think he would care about this. It's good that it's worth it," the chef said. Cao zhishu suddenly advised.

"I know." Head chef Liu did not answer and hung up the phone.

However, just as he hung up, Cao zhishu's phone rang again. This time, it was a head chef from another restaurant.

"Today's phone calls are really lively. " Cao zhishu touched his bald head and picked up the phone.
