When Hu Xiaobei and Haruno Nanako were frantically busy, guests in the hotel began waking up one after another!

After getting dressed, all these guests stepped out of their rooms…

Standing in the hallway, they took several deep breaths of fresh air and smiles of satisfaction spread across their faces…

They were really pleased at the moment…

To them, although the environment wasn't comparable to top-tier luxury hotels, it was peaceful, and they felt pretty good staying here…

…

After moving around a bit, everyone gradually gathered…

"Didn't the owner Haruno Rei say she'd provide meals before? How come it's not time for breakfast yet? Is it too early for breakfast?"

"Exactly!"

"I'm curious too."

Slowly, many began to mutter quietly…

Hungry…

They'd had a lovely night's sleep previously and this wonderful sleep made them hungry…

So now, they were hoping to have a good meal…

Some of the older folks tried to calm the others with relative composure, "Let's not rush, since she said there would be breakfast, it will surely be provided! It might be delayed because Haruno Rei needs to prepare properly, considering how many of us there are!"

"That makes sense!"

"Yes!"

While they chatted, the eagerly awaiting younger ones calmed down somewhat…

Just then, everyone heard absolutely hurried footsteps…

Curious, they turned their heads and saw a young man with a shocked expression running towards them quickly…

…

"What's going on? He couldn't be in the middle of a nightmare, could he!"

Thinking this, many asked out of curiosity, "What's the matter with you?"

"Right, were you chased by a dog?"

"Yeah!"

Hearing their extremely surprised questions, the young man took a deep breath, calming his excited emotions, then said, "You guys… guess what I just saw? You'll never guess!"

Hearing how dumbfounded the young man sounded, they twitched their mouths fiercely, then quickly spoke in unison.

"Brother, it looks like you had a nightmare! This isn't the dream anymore, so whatever you saw before, you don't need to be afraid now! Because you've woken up!"

Comforted in such a way, the young man's mouth twitched fiercely several times!

He quickly responded, "What, what? I haven't had nightmares for many years, why would I have nightmares!"

Saying that, he shifted his tone and spoke solemnly, "What I want to talk about now is serious. I just passed by the kitchen, guess what I saw? I… I saw Master Xiaobei in the kitchen making breakfast for us!"

Earlier, after waking up, he went out for a stroll!

Returning, he passed by the kitchen and saw Hu Xiaobei cooking, and he was stunned…

After looking carefully for a good while, he confirmed he wasn't mistaken, so he hurried over here to share this shocking news with everyone…

…

"Wha… What's going on?"

At that moment, the young man found everyone staring blankly at him.

Just as he was about to say something more, he suddenly noticed one person moving closer to him…

Before he could react, he felt the person place a hand on his forehead.

"Hmm? There's no fever on your forehead! Then why are you speaking nonsense?"

Hearing this, his eyelids twitched violently...

The very next moment, he blurted out, "What? Didn't I already mention it? I was just stating the facts! When I walked by, I indeed saw Master Xiaobei preparing breakfast for us in the kitchen!"

"Stop kidding. What kind of person is Master Xiaobei!"

"Exactly! How could he possibly be cooking breakfast for us!"

"I think it's impossible too!"

No one believed it!

In their eyes, someone of Hu Xiaobei's superior status would never cook breakfast for them!

Seeing that they completely disbelieved what he had said, the young man was on the verge of tears!

He knew that no matter how he explained it, it would not clear things up, so he didn't bother to explain any further.

He knew that once Hu Xiaobei served the dishes, these people would realize he wasn't joking!

...

At the moment when the young man was feeling down, Hu Xiaobei and Nanako were still busy in the kitchen...

After swiftly smashing the last cucumber, Hu Xiaobei put down the knife, looked at Nanako, and said, "How about it? How about it? Did I improve from the last time I made smashed cucumber?"

Nanako heard Hu Xiaobei's eager question, turned her head, and stared at the big bowl of smashed cucumber for quite a while.

Afterwards, Nanako spoke, "Master Xiaobei, I can't really tell."

Hu Xiaobei felt downcast upon hearing Nanako's response.

After a while, Hu Xiaobei muttered in a low voice depressed, "Nanako, can't you say something to cheer me up?"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak in a dejected tone, Nanako giggled and said, "Master Xiaobei, I'd like to make you happy, but I can't say things that aren't true, right?"

At this point, she paused briefly, then quickly continued, "Besides, Master Xiaobei, you know! Culinary skills aren't something you can improve quickly, so it's normal that this dish isn't much of an improvement from the previous ones, given you're not a culinary genius."

Hearing Nanako's softly spoken explanation, Hu Xiaobei thought it over carefully and soon felt there was some sense in what she said...

It was only his second real attempt at cooking, so it was normal that the results didn't look great.

After realizing this, Hu Xiaobei felt much better!

Yet, he still couldn't give up completely!

He glanced at Nanako and said, "Nanako, take a good look, are you saying there isn't even a little improvement?"

Sensing Hu Xiaobei's persistence, Nanako turned her head and examined the dish again.

Quickly, Nanako pointed at the water that had just boiled and said, "Master Xiaobei, did you boil that water?"

"Yes, what about it?"

"Nothing, I just think the water you boiled should taste really good!"

"I…"

Hu Xiaobei's mouth twitched fiercely!

Soon, Hu Xiaobei stopped dwelling on it and said, "Alright, let's stop messing around. Since it's ready, let's just serve it. It's not good to keep the guests waiting too long!"

"Okay!"

Agreeing, Nanako quickly moved closer.

Just as she stretched out her hand, she hesitated, then whispered, "Master Xiaobei, just… just this smashed cucumber, isn't it a bit too little? Shall we make something else?"

Nanako knew there were quite a few people outside, so just one smashed cucumber really seemed insufficient...

"A single dish does seem a bit little. Here's what, go wash a tomato and we'll smash a tomato too!"

"Smash a tomato? Master Xiaobei, let's pretend I didn't say anything!"

Knowing that Hu Xiaobei's smashed tomato would look even worse, Nanako immediately refused...

Rejected so decisively by her, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his forehead, "Then…let's just carry it out!"

"Okay!"

As they spoke, the two of them carried the big bowl of smashed cucumber out together…
