Chapter 1892 Gentle Betrayal

Following Commander Sean's instructions, Xuan Haixiu really started drinking seriously with the people around him.

He looked around. This place was full of the upper class of Kajie. Most of the people had enough wine glasses from the beloved ones to fill up a glass cabinet.

He had to think about whether this was his only chance in life to change his fate and become a superior person.

Lieutenant Colonel Cui Ze came over with a glass of foreign wine and clinked glasses with him.

"You are a very lucky guy! The commander has lived in Huaxu country before and he particularly likes Cantonese cuisine. If you work hard for the commander in the future, you will benefit greatly!"

Xuan Haixiu quickly picked up the wine glass, his gratitude to Commander Sean was beyond words.

"I will always remember the commander's kindness and will never be able to repay it in my lifetime!"

After saying this, he actually drank a glass of strong foreign liquor in one gulp to show his sincerity.

"Cough...cough..."

Cui Ze looked at his slightly funny appearance and reached out to pat him on the back in a friendly manner.

"For the commander, give everything you have!"

Someone came over and raised his glass to Xuan Haixiu. He clinked glasses with everyone, but his alcohol tolerance was too low. After drinking two more glasses, he lost consciousness.

……

While waiting for Xuan Haixiu to wake up, he saw a blinding light. The sunlight shone on his face through the glass window. He sat up from the bed and felt a severe headache.

Looking around, this is a place similar to a military dormitory, with a very simple layout.

He remembered what happened last night and felt ashamed and a little uneasy.

Commander Sean thought so highly of him that he probably wanted to taste the food he cooked, but he didn't expect him to be so useless and soon got drunk.

Xuan Haixiu put on his clothes and walked out of the room. There were two soldiers guarding outside. When they saw Xuan Haixiu wake up, they asked him to wait for a moment.

Then they reported to someone using the communication equipment.

Not long after, Cui Ze came here.

Xuan Haixiu said embarrassedly: "I'm very sorry, I lost my composure yesterday."

But Cui Ze forced a smile on his serious face.

"You did a good job yesterday. Commander Sean really appreciates your generosity! You can enter the Commander's mansion and cook for him in the future."

Xuan Haixiu was deeply grateful.

He originally cooked for the officers of an official unit, but now he has been promoted to the imperial chef in the imperial kitchen. Both his treatment and status will be greatly improved.

"Thank you, great commander!"

Later, Cui Ze actually personally sent Xuan Haixiu back, which made Xuan Haixiu flattered. He could see that Cui Ze's status in the guards was not low.

Xuan Haixiu returned to his home, holding the box containing the wine glasses tightly in his arms.

He wanted to share this honor with his wife Li Chengmei.

But when he returned home, he found that Li Chengmei was not at home.

Xuan Haixiu felt a little strange. Li Chengmei was a writer who was responsible for writing manuscripts for some official media channels and did not need to go out to work.

It's freezing outside and she doesn't like going out.

Xuan Haixiu didn't think much about it. He was now a noble and respected person, and his wife would be envied by the women in the neighborhood. It was also a good thing to go out more often. After all, such things had to be known to others.

Xuan Haixiu waited for a whole day, and Li Chengmei didn't come back until the evening.

Xuan Haixiu walked over excitedly, but when he saw Li Chengmei, a look of worry appeared on his face.

Li Chengmei's face looked a little pale. Although she used thick concealer, it was still obvious that she was in poor condition.

"Chengmei, what's wrong with you?"

When Li Chengmei saw Xuan Haixiu, she looked away and pretended to change into cotton slippers.

"Nothing, I think I have a cold, so I went to the hospital."

Although Xuan Haixiu felt that his wife was a little strange today, he just wanted to share his happiness with Li Chengmei at this moment, so he did not ask any further questions.

He took out the cup from the commander-in-chief's residence like he was presenting a treasure, and boasted to Li Chengmei:

"From today on, I am Commander Sean's personal chef! Cheng Mei, our lives will get better and better, and I will definitely make you happy!"

He raised the wine glass and looked at the colorful light reflected from it under the light, his face intoxicated.

But he didn't notice the helplessness and sadness in Li Chengmei's eyes.

"That's really great."

Li Chengmei's voice was so soft as if she had no strength, but Xuan Haixiu did not notice this.

In the following days, Xuan Haixiu officially entered Commander Sean's official residence and became his personal Chinese chef.

Of course, a series of detailed inspections are required before this.

It was necessary to ensure that there was nothing wrong with his health, and he was searched from inside to outside every day when he entered the official residence.

But for Xuan Haixiu, these are not problems at all compared to the honor of being able to cook for the commander.

Gradually, as he spent more time with Commander Sean, he discovered that this man was not what the outside world said he was.

Although he is a god-like being, he speaks very rudely and often uses words like "bastard".

But you have to admit that he is a real gourmet and is extremely picky about what he eats.

The environment in North Africa is still capable of growing some cold-resistant vegetables, but only a small number of high-ranking officials can eat them.

But the commander-in-chief's table was always filled with all kinds of fresh meat and seasonal vegetables.

With the planting technology of the mid-21st century, this is not difficult to achieve.

Compared to ensuring that Commander Sion can eat well, wasting some technological resources on this is of course a trivial matter.

"Chef Xuan, the egg fried rice you made today doesn't taste right, does it?"

One day during lunch, Commander Sean suddenly said this to Xuan Haixiu.

After hearing this, Xuan Haixiu thought about it carefully.

All ingredients are carefully selected by professionals and must be the freshest. Even the rice used to make Emperor Fried Rice has to be left out for a few seconds.

"No, Commander! I can guarantee that there will be no problems with the ingredients."

Xuan Haixiu has been working as a chef for Commander Sean for three months.

He was not a native of North Africa, but from the Huaxu Kingdom. Commander Sean had done business in eastern Guangdong for several years, so he was particularly kind to him.

Over time, he gradually became familiar with Commander Sion.

Xuan Haixiu possesses the wisdom that the Huaxu people have possessed since ancient times. In terms of social skills, the Huaxu people rank second, and no one dares to rank first.

His intelligence and talent were revealed at this time.

Commander Sion's status is so transcendent that everyone around him treats him with too much awe.

Although he holds supreme power in the Kingdom of Kaje, Commander Sean has no friends around him.

Therefore, Xuan Haixiu boldly believed that Commander Sean wanted a friend more than his subordinates who only knew how to raise their hands and cry and sing praises.

Therefore, he deliberately and boldly said some insignificant but slightly "offensive" words in front of Commander Sean.

For example, the commander particularly likes to reverse day and night, holding banquets and various entertainment parties at night.

Gambling cards, racing, and even some extremely exaggerated games.

Commander Sean loves playing cards and mahjong, but at the card table, his subordinates naturally let him win. No one dares to challenge the commander's wisdom and bravery at this time.

And Xuan Haixiu boldly won the game of cards against Commander Sean. He controlled the scale very well, and the two sides fought back and forth. In the end, he won a little bit against Commander Sean.

As a native of eastern Guangdong, Mahjong is ingrained in me since birth, so it is naturally easy for me to beat those bad card players in North Africa.

Because of this, he was rewarded with a lot of money by Commander Sion.

"Chef Xuan, you are a very good card player! This is the first time I have seen a card player who can compete with me!"

Not long after, Commander Sean specially organized another card game and beat Xuan Haixiu with all his money.

Xuan Haixiu cooperated very well and acted extremely frustrated, which made Commander Sean laugh happily.

In the end, Commander Sean not only generously returned the money he won, but also rewarded him with some precious supplies.

It was with this kind of cleverness that Xuan Haixiu became a celebrity around the well-known Commander Sean.

A cook who loves money.

Commander Sean has no popularity and no military force, so he is willing to keep such a character by his side, like an ancient jester.

Sometimes, Commander Sean would even treat Xuan Haixiu as a friend and take him to the toilet together.

They would even pee next to each other and make fun of Xuan Haixiu's size.

Xuan Haixiu would not be so conceited as to think that a figure like Commander Scion really regarded him as a friend.

He knew it was just a game between friends.

At this time, facing Commander Sean's questioning of Emperor Fried Rice, Xuan Haixiu stated his reasons very easily.

He didn't think that his cooking was not good enough, because he had to taste the food himself before making sure it was ok before giving it to Commander Sean.

Commander Sean put down his chopsticks and called over Lieutenant Colonel Cui Ze.

"Something doesn't feel right with my meal today."

Cui Ze nodded: "I'll go investigate now!"

Xuan Haixiu couldn't help feeling a little nervous. Could it be that there really was something wrong with today's materials?

If someone tampered with the commander's food, his life would be in danger!

However, he had tasted it in front of Cui Ze. If the commander-in-chief was in trouble, he would not survive.

After a while, Cui Ze came to the commander and said something in his ear.

Commander Sean suddenly laughed happily with his head raised.

He pointed at Xuan Haixiu and said, "Xuan Haixiu, you really made a mistake this time!"

Xuan Haixiu's heart skipped a beat and he didn't know what was going on.

Commander Sean asked Choi Taek and Hyun Hae Soo to explain the situation clearly.

Cui Ze said to Xuan Haixiu: "One of the batches of rice used in the kitchen today was from half a month ago."

Xuan Haixiu widened his eyes, he didn't expect it to be because of this.

He remembered that there was indeed a small amount of old rice in the rice bag. He was worried about wasting this precious food, so he mixed it with the new rice. He thought that since it was only a little bit, there would be no problem.

But to his surprise, Commander Sean could taste it in one bite.

He apologized quickly.

Commander Sean was very proud of himself for defeating Xuan Haixiu. He waved his hand generously and told Xuan Haixiu to use the best ingredients when cooking for him in the future and not to be unnecessarily frugal.

The days passed one by one.

Xuan Haixiu often attends Commander Sean's dinner parties, and he gets drunk every time because Commander Sean likes people who drink heartily.

However, to be more precise, he likes to see others lose their composure after getting drunk in front of him, and it amuses him.

Xuan Haixiu knew how to behave himself, so he got himself drunk on purpose.

The glass cabinet at home that was used to store wine glasses was full, so he had to ask his wife Li Chengmei to buy a new one.
