Chapter 2856 Yang Yuxin's Craftsmanship

Yang Yuxin did indeed cook in the kitchen. Although there were only four dishes, they were all Jiangnan dishes, and without exception, they were all dishes that Qin Feng liked to eat.

Yang Yuxin and Qin Feng have eaten together quite a few times, so it's not surprising that she knows what dishes Qin Feng likes to eat.

When Qin Feng returned with the dishes, Yang Yuxin had already brought over the bottle of Moutai she had prepared, and even poured a glass for both Qin Feng and herself.

"Why are you drinking?" Qin Feng asked.

"Don't you think we should celebrate today?" Yang Yuxin asked.

Qin Feng then understood Yang Yuxin's meaning and sat down.

"What do you think of these dishes?" Yang Yuxin asked.

"How can I give my opinion if I haven't even tried it?"

"First of all, look at the presentation. Don't you Jiangnan dishes all emphasize color, aroma, and taste?"

"You seem to know quite a lot."

"Of course, I've been learning these dishes for almost a month, just so I can surprise you when I've mastered them. Don't I always say that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach? I want you to be unable to resist me because of my cooking skills," Yang Yuxin said seductively, her gaze towards Qin Feng filled with longing.

Qin Feng knew Yang Yuxin was joking, but he also knew she was serious.

"Thank you!" Qin Feng said earnestly, somewhat moved.

Yang Yuxin may seem like she never tells the truth, but she is actually more sincere than anyone else. She said she spent a month learning to cook Jiangnan cuisine for Qin Feng, and that definitely means she spent a month learning.

Qin Feng can cook, although he hasn't cooked much in recent years. He knows that Jiangnan cuisine is not easy to learn. Just looking at the appearance of the dishes Yang Yuxin made, it would be impossible to make them without studying for ten days or half a month.

"Try it and see if it's the taste you like." Yang Yuxin picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in Qin Feng's bowl, looking at Qin Feng with anticipation.

Qin Feng was indeed moved, but he also felt somewhat resistant, because he was moved, which was why he felt resistant.

Qin Feng took a bite. He had no expectations for Yang Yuxin's taste as a beginner and was prepared to give a perfunctory review, but he was surprised to find that it tasted really good.

"What's wrong?" Yang Yuxin asked quickly when she saw the change in Qin Feng's expression.

"Did you really just learn from the internet?"

"Unappetizing?"

"No, it's delicious. It's so delicious that it doesn't seem like it was made by someone who's just started learning to cook Jiangnan cuisine. It's more like it was made by a master chef of Jiangnan cuisine. It has captured the essence of Jiangnan cuisine," Qin Feng commented.

"You noticed that? I did learn it from online videos at first, but it never tasted quite right. So I had the Jiangnan cuisine chef from my restaurant teach me step by step. Yesterday, the chef said I've mastered all four dishes, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to make them for you," Yang Yuxin explained.

Qin Feng remembered that in order to allow Qin Feng to eat authentic Jiangnan cuisine, Yang Yuxin specially hired a Jiangnan cuisine chef for her restaurant, which meant that the chef was specially hired for Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng never went there for more than two meals.

"You are very smart and competitive. You always strive to do your best in everything you do," Qin Feng commented.

“So living is also very tiring. It’s like I like you. I know you have a wife and children, and I know your wife is very outstanding. You would never abandon your wife to be with me, but I still don’t want to give up.” Yang Yuxin said slowly, looking into Qin Feng’s eyes.

"If you keep talking about this with me, I'm not going to keep up," Qin Feng said.

Yang Yuxin rolled her eyes at Qin Feng: "Straight man."

"Come on, let's have a toast to celebrate our great victory today," Yang Yuxin said to Qin Feng, raising her glass.

"You could say I've won, but what have I won? This operation has allowed me to completely eliminate Shao Hongli's influence, consolidate the resources of the municipal government, and pave the way for my future governance. From this perspective, I have indeed achieved a great victory today."

"But this time it didn't cause any damage to Lixin Group or the Yang family, so what victory do you have?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"Aren't we allies? If you win, then I win too?" Yang Yuxin asked.

"And how come the Yang family didn't suffer any losses? You did go this time to reorganize the power structure of the municipal government, but don't forget that Shao Hongli was promoted by Yang Zhijie. Although the Yang family's control over the Shazhou officialdom doesn't rely solely on Shao Hongli, Shao Hongli is the most powerful and direct tool for the Yang family to control the Shazhou officialdom, especially the municipal government. Shao Hongli is also the Yang family's spokesperson in the Shazhou officialdom."

"You have completely eliminated Shao Hongli's influence this time. Even if you don't force Shao Hongli to step down this time, he will have very little influence in the future. This is a huge loss for the Yang family and Lixin Group. It will be very difficult for them to influence and control the Shazhou officialdom, especially the municipal government, in the future. The price they will have to pay will be very high."

"Besides... how many members of the Yang family have you arrested in these operations? Over a hundred, right? Do you know how much of a blow this has been to the Yang family? Half of Yang Zhihao's men have been arrested and imprisoned by you. If Yang Guoqiang hadn't been sitting there, Yang Zhihao would have already led his men to besiege the police station to rescue them."

"Even so, today Yang Zhihao went to Lixin Group, smashed Yang Zhijie's office to pieces, and threatened Yang Zhijie that he must get his people out within three days. From this, you should be able to understand how serious your blow to Yang Zhihao is this time."

"The Yang family seems to be playing a very complicated game, but at its core, they are still using the old trick of having connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds. They amass wealth through the underworld and use the legitimate world as a protective umbrella. You've seen this very clearly, otherwise you wouldn't have devised this operation."

"Your operation appears to be targeting Shao Hongli, but the ultimate goal is actually the Yang family. On one hand, it's about eliminating Shao Hongli's influence, which in turn eliminates the Yang family's influence in the Shazhou officialdom. On the other hand, it's about using this opportunity to legitimately arrest Yang Zhihao's subordinates."

"You've attacked the Yang family's power from both the legitimate and criminal worlds simultaneously. This is a clever and ruthless move, and it has truly made the Yang family feel the pain this time."

"Do you still dare to say that you dealt a small blow to the Yang family this time? For me, as long as the Yang family's power is damaged, I am one step closer to victory. Do you think I should celebrate?" Yang Yuxin returned to the topic.

Qin Feng was once again impressed by Yang Yuxin. She not only knew the Yang family inside and out, but also guessed Qin Feng's intentions with great accuracy.

Qin Feng didn't say anything, but raised his glass and clinked it with Yang Yuxin's, then drank it down in one gulp. He was in a very good mood today.

Just then, there was another knock on the door, which surprised Qin Feng. Who else, besides Yang Yuxin, would dare to knock on his door without prior notice?
