Chapter 45
Fu Yan glanced at him and said, "What do you think?"
Although he had never been to this resort before, the lunch and dinner menus had already revealed the issue.
"Damn! This is the legendary yin-yang menu!" Wang Hu stared with tiger eyes.
"What's going on here?"
"Old Kong said everything would be of the highest standard. Turns out they're trying to fool us here."
Fu Yan leaned back, hands behind his head, and spoke lazily, "That girl is no naive fool."
Wang Hu let out a cold snort. "That woman doesn't do things openly."
"It's good enough that there's food to eat," Fu Yan didn't elaborate.
That night, many people went to order food with the menus passed down from Mao Zhen, following this standard.
"Yes, just go by this."
The server was about to say "OK," but a prompt tone came from the headset indicating the kitchen had run out of the ingredients for those dishes.
The server smiled apologetically. "Sorry, the ingredients for the dishes on this menu are all out. You can go to the buffet, or choose something else from the menu."
A few girls let out groans but didn't make a fuss over it.
"The menu?"
"Just scan the code."
The girls scanned the code to order. One girl asked in puzzlement, "Hey, why don't you guys have those dishes on your menus?"
The server was taken aback for a moment before explaining with a smile, "Any dishes that can't be ordered, we take them off the menu right away."
The girls nodded, feeling regret that they couldn't try the food but didn't say anything more.
The same situation occurred at another table. "What the, why doesn't a huge resort like this prepare enough ingredients?"
"Those ingredients need to be ordered in advance. The hotel only prepares a dozen or so portions regularly."
"What do you mean? Didn't you say you would provide us the highest standard?"
Wang Hu happened to walk by their table and threw out a line, "If you still don't get it, they were just saying it for show. Anything you can eat now is already good."
The server kept a smile on her face and tried her best to explain, "Sorry, we didn't consider things thoroughly. We'll improve on this in the future."
Similar incidents played out at various corners of the dining hall regarding whether it was really the highest standard. Different opinions spread among the students, each with their own perspective.
Some servers were also grumbling in a corner.
"Some of these high schoolers really have no class. They know nothing but keep criticizing the resort for being all talk."
"Don't compare yourself to these kids. How could they know these were all orders from above to serve just this much?"
"Of course. What do they understand? If the host who paid really wanted the highest standard, would she not know about these things? Would she not prepare them? She just wants the reputation but also wants to save money."
"We see through it but don't say it. Just don't let anything slip to the students."
"Ugh, why do they have to make us take the fall?"
"It's only two days. Bear with it and it'll pass."
"I'm not saying the standards aren't the best, but they're still pretty good. Yet they're still nitpicking and unappreciative."
"Don't say that. Everyone wants to try tasty new things when they see them. It's normal. Or do you not want to either?"
"Humph."
The two left, but some high schoolers had heard their conversation clearly.
Ren Ran, Mao Zhen and the others were dining on the top floor at the sky restaurant. Someone let out excited cries of "Wow!"
Guo Tongwen took out her phone excitedly and turned it towards Ren Ran, "Ran Ran, it's lively downstairs at the restaurant!"
