Chapter 233: Showdown, I am the Master Wang you want to see

Elena also noticed Wang Jianye and looked at him unhappily.

"I've been tired all day at Fengze Garden. I came here to drink beer and take a break."

After Wang Jianye finished speaking, he did not wait for their reaction, but went straight into the Daqianmen Tavern.

"Boss Xu, give me two glasses of beer and some snacks."

Wang Jianye said to Xu Huizhen behind the counter.

Xu Huizhen responded and took out all the things for Wang Jianye.

Just as Wang Jianye sat down at a table near the counter and took two sips of beer, Chen Xueru and Elena also sat over.

Elena asked with some resentment: "Master Wang, we agreed two days ago that you would take me to Master Wang's residence. Why don't you keep your word?"

"I was too busy the past two days." Wang Jianye ate some pickles and drank a sip of beer, and said casually, "If you still want to see him, wait until I finish these two beers, and then I'll take you there."

Chen Xueru looked nonchalant, but Elena nodded expectantly, "Well, I hope you can be a man of your word this time."

Then, Elena excitedly whispered to Chen Xueru beside her, "We will soon be able to meet Master Wang from Fengze Garden. I wonder if he lives far away? If not, we can often go to his house to eat. How great is that."

Chen Xueru stroked her forehead speechlessly, "Elena, can you be more promising? Don't always think about eating at other people's houses. Even if Master Wang is willing to let you eat, Master Wang's wife may not agree."

Chen Xueru raised a realistic question. After all, which wife would be so generous as to let other women come to her home for meals, especially women as beautiful as them. That would be even more impossible.

Elena uttered a disappointed "oh" and gulped down a big mouthful of beer. When she saw Wang Jianye, she couldn't help but ask, "Master Wang, is Master Wang from Fengze Garden married?"

Wang Jianye shook his head in the face of Elena's expectant gaze. "He is only 21 years old and has not yet started a family."

"Ah? You said Master Wang is twenty-one years old?!"

Elena was surprised. "How is that possible? She is too young."

Chen Xueru didn't believe it either, and glanced at Wang Jianye with suspicion: "Master Wang, we're not asking you, but Master Wang from Fengze Garden, who makes so delicious spicy potato shreds and braised pork that it makes you cry."

Wang Jianye did not answer. Instead, he took a big sip of beer and wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth. "I'll take you to see him later, and you'll know everything."

Elena couldn't wait any longer. At her urging, Wang Jianye quickly finished two glasses of beer. He wanted to drink more, but Elena stopped him and said, "Take us to see Master Wang first. I'll treat you to a beer when we get back."

"OK then."

Wang Jianye led the two girls out of the tavern and walked towards the shop on the right.

Chen Xueru followed and took two steps: "Master Wang, is it far? If it is far, we can call a tricycle."

At this moment, Wang Jianye suddenly stopped moving and said, "We're here," in the puzzled looks of the two girls.

"What's the place?"

Elena and Chen Xueru were confused and had no idea what Wang Jianye meant.

Wang Jianye pointed to the shop next to the tavern and said, "This is where Master Wang from Fengze Garden, whom you are looking for, lives." "What! Master Wang actually lives here?!"

"We didn't know anything about it."

Elena and Chen Xueru were shocked.

The person they most wanted to get close to, erm, the person they most wanted to see, was actually right next to the tavern they most often visited.

Seeing that the door of the shop was locked, Chen Xueru frowned and looked at Wang Jianye with suspicion, "Is this where Master Wang from Fengze Garden lives? You didn't just find a place to fool us, did you?"

After hearing what Chen Xueru said, Elena looked at Wang Jianye with some resentment, "Master Wang, when we asked you where Master Wang lived, you should have said you knew if you knew, and you should have said you didn't know if you didn't. Why did you make up a place to lie to us?"

Wang Jianye smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you. This is indeed the residence of the Master Wang you are looking for."

Then, Wang Jianye took out the key from his pocket and opened the door of the shop in front of Elena and Chen Xueru's surprised eyes.

"I understand. This is your home, Master Wang." Chen Xueru felt annoyed as if she had been fooled. "I have told you so many times that we are looking for Master Wang, who made Fengze Garden so popular, not you, Master Wang. Do you know where he is? If you don't know, Elena and I will leave. We don't have time to tease you."

Elena also looked at Wang Jianye with dissatisfaction, "Master Wang, you are really not authentic at all."

Then Elena said to Chen Xueru, "Let's go and ignore this hateful guy."

Chen Xueru nodded and was about to leave with Elena.

Wang Jianye put his hands in his pockets and said, "I wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I didn't expect to be alienated. I won't pretend anymore. I am the Master Wang you are looking for. I am telling you my cards."

Elena and Chen Xueru looked at each other, stopped, turned around and looked at Wang Jianye suspiciously.

"Could you be Master Wang?"

"Master Wang's skills are so high and his dishes are so delicious. He must have at least decades of cooking experience. How can he be as young as you, little brother?"

Neither of them believed it.

Wang Jianye said slowly, "There is only one chef Wang in Fengze Garden, and that is me, Wang Jianye. If you don't believe me, you can go to Fengze Garden and ask if there is only one chef named Wang in the kitchen."

Now Wang Jianye spoke so confidently and didn't seem to be lying. Elena and Chen Xueru couldn't help but doubt. He said he was the Master Wang, could this be true?

For a moment, the two girls exchanged glances. "You said you are Master Wang from Fengze Garden, so your cooking must be very delicious? True gold is not afraid of fire, so can you make one for us to taste?"

"It's OK, but I don't have any ingredients here. Even a skilled cook cannot make a meal without rice."

After hearing what Wang Jianye said, Chen Xueru thought for a moment and said, "We can help you borrow the stove in Xu Huizhen's tavern. You can try making a dish of spicy and sour potato shreds there."

Since they insisted on verifying whether he was Master Wang from Fengze Garden, Wang Jianye agreed.

Chen Xueru and Elena found Xu Huizhen and said they wanted to borrow the stove. Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen had known each other for many years and were very good friends, so when Chen Xueru asked, Xu Huizhen agreed to lend it to her.

"Come on, Master Wang, let us see your craftsmanship."
