Chapter 349 - Fight For Snacks!

I mistyped yesterday it"s Yuan, not Xuan. Fixed

Shen Junxi was overwhelmed with the attention Headmaster Yuan showed him, however, Headmaster Yuan waved his hands and turned his attention to Lin Rui and Su Wan " ah, Lin Rui - you boy, you really surprised me.? Top scorer! That"s something not everyone can achieve" then he turned to Su Wan who was holding a big basket in her hands and showed an understanding smile, though he didn"t accept gifts from anyone, he could always make an exception " ah little girl, what did you bring? I have heard a lot of praise of your restaurant and have to say that your restaurant lives up to its reputation and the cream perfume don"t even get me started on it, these days I can"t even sleep without your aromatic cream perfumes. As for your restaurant, Not a dish was a letdown, so what did you bring for this old man? "

Yuan Jinze was a man to be admired, there were at least more than ten to fifteen restaurants in town and the shops that sold aromatic perfume were even more so, yet he was still able to figure out Su Wan"s connections to these two without so much as investigating it. It was clear that it must have been because of his sharp observation that he was able to connect Lin Yan"s and Lin Chen"s relationship with Lin Rui though the brothers hardly resembled each other.

" You praise me too much headmaster Yuan, my humble skills are not worth mentioning. But I"m glad that you liked the services and products of my shops, here I brought some cream perfume that might help you in relaxing and some snacks that are yet to be launched in our restaurant" said Su Wan and pulled out a bowl filled with a cupcake shaped chicken appetisers and a plate of shrimp crackers. She wasn"t lying when she said that these dishes were yet to be launched to in their restaurant, they were bite-size and gluten-free but Su Wan was still thinking about whether to launch them at her restaurant or open another shop to launch these snacks.

" ah, then I"m the first one who"s going to try these first? "Said Headmaster Yuan as he took a chip from the plate and ate it with a loud " crunch", though his expression at first was dubious but then he hurriedly reached for another one and then another one and -

" grandfather, what are you doing?" Yuan Bai who was on his way to the mess hall noticed a commotion happening in front of his grandfather"s pavilion.? He came here to invite his grandfather to have a meal together at the Eat Delish restaurant but when he saw that his grandfather who should be in his office finishing up his work was actually standing outside munching on something like a glutton. Yuan Bai could feel his lips twitch, his father sent him here to study and asked his grandfather to take care of him then why was it that it was him who have to take care of his grandfather? What was the meaning of this? He was just a ten-year-old kid!

" ack! Cough! It"s you, Xiao Bai, what"s with that loud voice, you nearly scared me to death! " coughed Headmaster Yuan as he took the two plates from Su Wan and handed it to the school perfect winking at him to take these plates inside, in an attempt to protect his food. He didn"t know why but these two dishes that looked so simple were really what should he call it - yes appetizing. And though the plate was completely stacked with them, it was clear that these snacks were only bite size! He couldn"t share it with his grandson, this kid who didn"t know how to appreciate such fine delicacies.

Yuan Bai was very familiar with his grandfather, though he disdained eating food with such a gluttonous appearance.? He too was a child who liked eating good things, from his grandfather"s antics and his overprotective att.i.tude. Those small snacks must be quite delicious!

Yuan Bai narrowed his eyes and quickened his pace and before his grandfather could stop him, he s.n.a.t.c.hed a smoked cupcake chicken and took a bite.? As soon as he bit on the smoked chicken that was glazed with barbecue sauce and was perfectly caramelised, and a tantalising taste burst into his mouth - this what kind of spell did sister Su cast on this chicken, it was just chicken but it didn"t taste greasy at all! The fatty oil that was oozing from the skin of the chicken, was so delicious that Yuan Bai felt like swallowing his tongue.

Yuan Bai couldn"t sit still and hurriedly stretched his hand and took a few shrimp chips before his grandfather could object and stuffed them too in his mouth.

Headmaster Yuan was immediately stunned, he was around fifty years or so and had seen many battles and had given any advice to the emperor and generals but right now, he was too stunned to react.? This was his youngest grandson born of his favourite son, and this favourite grandson has actually s.n.a.t.c.hed his food! From Right under his nose!

He had favoured him more when compared to his other grandsons, had given him everything that possibly could be given to a young child, but this brat - he still s.n.a.t.c.hed his snacks! Was he too doting as a grandfather?

After being stunned for a while, Headmaster Yuan couldn"t help but snarl " you brat! Aren"t you ashamed of this! s.n.a.t.c.hing something from your grandfather? How could you s.n.a.t.c.h something your grandfather cherishes? You unfi- " but then he remembered that he couldn"t scold his favourite grandson for being unfilial as the child was still young so he puffed up his cheeks and said, "I"m really angry at you !"

Yuan Bai wasn"t scared of his grandfather either, he s.n.a.t.c.hed another handful of chips and muttered " you are the dignified headmaster of the Xuan academy if you get in a fight with a child like me for a few snacks don"t you think that your reputation might be hit by a boulder? "

As always Yuan Bai used his sharp wits to silence his grandfather!

Grandfather Yuan: this brat whom did he take after? Must be that unfilial son of mine!

The unfilial son and unlucky father in the capital: Achoo!
