"Oh! I asked too late, it’s such a pity. I should have asked you earlier. How long will it be before you can continue with your private chef service?"

"Well... it’s hard to say, some months at the shortest, longer would be hard to predict." Ye Fei said.

She was confident about passing the preliminary rounds and advancing smoothly to become an official contestant in the cooking competition.

She also didn’t know how well she could rank.

After all, in the competition, there are always more skilled people. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Moreover, even the students from Changping Culinary Academy are not to be underestimated.

Ye Fei wasn’t confident enough to believe she could take first place and have no rivals.

However, she was confident about lasting one or two months in the culinary competition.

If she really could achieve a good ranking, then she would have new considerations and might directly stop being a private chef.

So, some months at the shortest, longer would be hard to predict.

"So... does this mean you might never do it again?" The elderly woman’s voice sounded as if the sky was falling, full of disappointment.

"Oh, I’m so old now and don’t have other hobbies, just enjoying good food. I’ve already told my old friends, inviting you to my home to cook a meal for us, so we could have a good taste. Who knew it’d be such bad timing."

"My old friends are getting on in years too, really, one less meal each time we eat. Even if you someday restart being a private chef, we don’t know if we can wait until that day!"

"Now, we don’t have any other wishes; we just want to taste your cooking." The elderly woman sighed, "Forget it, forget it, life is mostly unsatisfactory, can’t force it. Oh! Just pretend... pretend I never made this call."

"Later, I’ll have to explain to my old friends. They will surely be disappointed too, but there’s no way! Oh! Food doesn’t even taste good anymore."

Ye Fei: "..."

She felt she would be very wrong not to agree.

What the elderly lady said was so pitiful that Ye Fei felt really sorry and especially guilty.

"Well... I’ll come over the day after tomorrow." Ye Fei said, "Actually, starting tomorrow, I’m ending my private chef service, but I’ll make an exception this time to cook a meal for you all."

Cooking just one meal for the elderly ladies, just this once, wouldn’t take much effort.

"Really?" The elderly woman said in delight.

"Yes, please give me your address, and let me draft a menu, I’ll show it to you tomorrow, and we can make changes if needed." Ye Fei said.

"Let’s add each other on WeChat then." The elderly woman happily said, "Just search with my phone number, I’ll send you the address via WeChat, and once you have the menu ready, you can send it to me directly on WeChat."

Ye Fei hadn’t expected the elderly woman to be quite trendy.

Judging from her voice, she indeed seemed quite elderly, yet she could even use WeChat.

"Okay." Ye Fei agreed.

After hanging up, she immediately saved the phone number and found the elderly woman’s WeChat using the number.

The WeChat name was: "Grandson, when are you going to find a partner?"

Ye Fei: "..."

It was truly a soul inquisitor.

She couldn’t imagine what the grandson felt every time he chatted with her.

Every time the elderly woman sent a message, the grandson would see: "Grandson, when are you going to find a partner?"

The thought gave Ye Fei a sense of pressure.

Ye Fei: "Hello, I am the private chef you contacted earlier."

"Grandson, when are you going to find a partner?": "Hello, hello, just a moment, I’ll send you the address."
