Chapter 2321 Two Menus

Liu Fusheng studied the card and said, "This restaurant is next to Notre Dame. It looks quite grand."

In the invitation, someone used polite words to invite Liu Fusheng to have dinner there the next day, and the invitation was signed by the chef Mr. Paco from God's Gourmet Restaurant.

Zhou Xiaozhe smiled and said, "This should be the connection of Chef Hans in Munich, right?"

Liu Fusheng smiled. He still remembered that Hans said he would say hello to his friends in the food industry and ask them to entertain him warmly.

At that time, Liu Fusheng thought that Hans was just being polite, but he didn't expect that he actually arranged the chef from the top French restaurant.

Zhou Xiaozhe asked: "Does the governor want to go to the appointment?"

Liu Fusheng said: "Of course we have to go. This restaurant is very difficult to book. No matter how rich you are, you still have to queue up. You can record this in the itinerary of the inspection team. There is no need to hide it."

Zhou Xiaozhe nodded to indicate that he understood.

Liu Fusheng handed him the invitation as evidence for his performance report after returning to China.

The next day, Liu Fusheng led the inspection team, completed his work, and returned to the hotel to prepare for the appointment, but found that Zhu Yu and Liu Fei had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing them hesitating, Liu Fusheng asked, "What's wrong? Don't be shy, just speak up if you have something to say."

Liu Fei said: "Yesterday when we were consulting Secretary Zhou about some things, we happened to see an invitation. I understand French and I know it is an invitation to the restaurant of Gods Cuisine."

"As far as I know, the price of dining in that restaurant is very high, and it is almost impossible to get a seat without a reservation. Governor Liu, you just arrived in France and you have received an invitation from the chef of the gods' cuisine..."

Zhu Yu pulled her arm, but Liu Fei still said, "I will tell the organization."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I haven't done anything that violates the Party's discipline or the law of the country. I was able to get the invitation because I have a good relationship with the chef. If the Discipline Inspection Commission wants to know the details, I can report it to them truthfully."

It turned out that these two young men felt that Liu Fusheng was corrupt or had some problems with his lifestyle, and out of their working instinct as the Commission for Discipline Inspection, they took the initiative to come and consult, or investigate Liu Fusheng.

Zhu Yu smiled awkwardly: "Governor Liu, you misunderstood. We have absolute trust in you. We also know that in addition to your job, you are also a writer with royalties of tens of millions. You are fully capable of consuming food of this level..."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Then why are you looking for me?"

Liu Fei said, "We, we were thinking, can we go to the restaurant with you to broaden our horizons? I've known this restaurant is very good for a long time, and I was planning to go check it out after work, but I didn't make it in time because I encountered setbacks at work."

Liu Fusheng sighed lightly. Liu Fei was such a young man, so stupid that he had no emotional intelligence at all.

From another perspective, it can also be seen that her family background is not ordinary. How dare ordinary civil servants do such nonsense? Including Zhu Yu, whose parents work in the sea, they are much more stable than her.

Seeing Liu Fei's eager eyes, Liu Fusheng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I promised to treat you to a meal, so let's go to this Michelin restaurant."

Liu Fei's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "That's great."

Liu Fusheng said, "It has been noted on Chef Paco's invitation that I can bring my companions with me, and it should be no problem for you to come along as well."

Zhu Yu rubbed his hands and said, "How about I not go?"

Liu Fusheng shook his head and said, "Go ahead. Liu Fei is a lesbian. If someone were to take a picture of me having dinner with my secretary and a lesbian at a high-end restaurant abroad, it would probably cause some criticism. Even if it's to avoid suspicion, you have to go with me."

Zhu Yu nodded. In fact, he also wanted to see the world.

Liu Fusheng said: "European restaurants have many rules and some requirements on dress. You should prepare in advance."

Liu Fei said with a smile: "Last night, Secretary Zhou sent someone to deliver our luggage. We all have decent clothes, so don't worry, we will never embarrass you. In addition, during the meal, you can completely treat us as your secretaries."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said nothing.

Later, the three of them met at the hotel entrance.

Liu Fei was wearing an evening gown and Zhu Yu was wearing a suit.

Liu Fusheng said, "Let's go. Secretary Zhou has something urgent to do, so he won't be attending this meal."

Zhu Yu and Liu Fei looked at each other and said in unison: "That's such a pity..."

French taxi drivers are generally quite talkative.

When the driver heard that they were going to God's gourmet restaurant, he immediately became excited and talked incessantly about many topics about food, such as French court cuisine, which the king liked and so on.

Zhu Yu was rather reserved in front of Liu Fusheng, but very talkative outside. His French was also good, and he chatted with the driver about everything from food to scenery, literature and politics. He talked all the way and seemed to have quite a bit of knowledge.

While listening to the two people chatting, Liu Fusheng looked back through the rearview mirror of the car.

Since they left the hotel, two cars have been following them.

Zhu Yu and Liu Fei didn't notice it, but Liu Fusheng could see it.

At an intersection, while waiting for the traffic light, Liu Fusheng finally saw clearly the appearance and temperament of a foreigner in one of the cars.

He sighed. It seemed that the Bordeaux gang that Jia Guotao bribed had not given up on making trouble.

Soon, the taxi of Liu Fusheng and others stopped in front of Shen’s Gourmet Restaurant.

Zhu Yu paid and everyone got off the car.

Liu Fei handed over the invitation.

When the waiter saw that it was written by Chef Paco himself, he immediately became more respectful towards Liu Fusheng and others.

Everyone entered the restaurant and sat down in an elegant private room.

Then, the waiter handed over three menus and said politely, "I have already informed Chef Paco that Mr. Liu is coming. He is busy in the kitchen and will come to see you in person later. Before that, please choose the dishes you like."

Zhu Yu whispered in Chinese: "Chef Paco is hosting a banquet for Governor Liu, why does he want us to order food?"

Liu Fei flipped through the menu and said, "You don't understand this, do you? Letting us order our own dishes is, on the one hand, a sign of respect, and on the other hand, Chef Paco wants to test our ability to appreciate food."

After that, she started ordering a few dishes.

Zhu Yu frowned as he listened, and said while comparing it with the menu: "Liu Fei, take it easy, don't just pick the expensive ones."

Liu Fei said: "Ah? Is it expensive?"

Zhu Yu glared and said, "Why are you pretending to be confused? The price is marked on the back!"

Liu Fei smiled slightly when she heard this.

Liu Fusheng said: "This restaurant treats women preferentially. Only the men's menu has prices, while the women's menu does not. The expensive dishes ordered by Xiao Liu just show that she has a unique appreciation for food."

Zhu Yu suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Liu Fei said with a smile: "Old-fashioned guy, now you know how big the gap is between you and Governor Liu, right?"
