Chef God Reborn in Japan

The blonde girl with double ponytails, Eri Yinglili.

The black framed glasses boy, An Yilun.

Both anime characters were alive.

Xia Yu thought that he was dazzled and rubbed his eyes. And then he thought of the promotion of his shop by the ACG well-known blogger, ‘Mr Taki’, and 18-forbidden female painter, ‘Eri Kashiwagi’. The last trace of doubt in him disappeared in the end.

Xia Yu was thinking about how to make a conversation to express his gratitude.

He would feel embarrassed to go up to them and tell them that he was the manager and head chef of that small shop. The scene would seem like a wealthy person showing off his money by holding a stack of banknotes.

However, he didn’t have to worry about it for long.

Eri Yinglili finished complaining to An Yilun, and she turned around and walked away fast. She then slammed into Xia Yu. The tragic situation seemed to be the scene of a car accident.

“Watch your step.” Xia Yu was hit for the second time today. He came out and got hit all of sudden. He helped the girl with blonde hair and ponytails get up innocently.

To the outsiders, Eri Yinglili was a typical famous lady with impeccable etiquette. She tried her best to calm down and after standing firm. She said with a fake smile, “Thank you, thank you!”

Xia Yu chuckled in his heart. Not all blondes were the same.

Eri Yinglili also had a bit of a bad temper, but at least she knew how to hide her temper. If it were replaced by Rina, after Xia Yu kindly helped her, she would scold Xia Yu instead.

At least in terms of talking sh*t, Eri Yinglili was not as good as Rina.

An Yilun was just like the guy in the anime. He was quite slow, like a wooden block as always, standing a few meters away. He pushed up his black frame glasses and did not intend to chase after Yinglili.

During this time, when girls were angry, the guys should take care of them. But he blamed everything on her instead of apologizing. Any boy with higher EQ would take all the responsibility and bear the girl’s temper.

“No wonder the relationship between these two is so difficult…” Xia Yu twitched his mouth.

“Wait!”

He shouted out in time to stop Eri Yinglili who was about to leave and blinked. “Coming to the shopping street, are you planning to dine at Xia’s Chinese Restaurant?”

After hearing ‘Xia’s Chinese Restaurant’, Eri Yinglili’s eyes immediately lit up.

“Yes! Yeah!” Yinglili stared at him with a pair of beautiful eyes. “Did you also come by train?”

Xia Yu scratched his face and did not know how to answer.

His embarrassed look fell into Yinglili’s eyes.

It seemed like the embarrassment of coming all the way here from a far and not getting a seat. He seemed to be full of resentment and depression.

The corner of her mouth twitched slightly. Most of the anger within Eri Yinglili suddenly disappeared.

When meeting people who encountered similar hardship, and the other party seemed to be worse off than herself, the sympathy immediately overwhelmed her anger.

An Yilun also walked over and said, “Hello, I am An Yilun. Nice to meet you.”

Although this anime character was a serious otaku, maybe due to the fact that he used to work a part time job outside, he gained strong communication skills and the ability to act.

He looked like a high school student with black short hair and big black frame glasses. His casual clothes were a combination of a round neck shirt and a sports jacket. His temperament was ordinary.

“My name is Xia Yu.”

“Are you Chinese?” An Yilun immediately regained his positivity. His voice was filled with curiosity and excitement.

“I never imagined that this restaurant on the shopping street can attract Chinese customers. So, is this your first time? Second time? Can you tell me what you think of that restaurant? Although this restaurant is popular on the Internet, but that’s the Japanese people’s evaluation. As far as I know, it seems that the Chinese disdain overseas ‘authentic’ Chinese cuisine. I really want to know how Chinese guests feel after eating this restaurant’s food…”

Seeing that An Yilun talked endlessly, Xia Yu thought of him when he promoted anime and games to others. It was probably just like this.

He happily gained a loyal fan?

Xia Yu laughed in his heart and did not explain much. “You come with me—”

He walked ahead by himself.

Eri Yinglili kicked and woke up An Yilun, who was still talking to himself, and they followed.

It was crowded at Xia’s shop front.

“No need to queue?”

Being led by Xia Yu all the way to the storefront, the disdaining look cast by the other people queueing behind made An Yilun and Eri Yinglili sit uneasily.

Hello, what was going on here?

Eri Yinglili looked up at the calm figure in front of her. She wanted to stop him to ask why, but several female cosplayers took the lead and surrounded Xia Yu amongst them.

“Can you open the door in advance?”

“No!”

“Then please tell me a bit more. What are the six courses of the day? Let us discuss about it when we are bored in the queue. We will be able to order immediately after entering the store!”

“Excuse me!”

The surrounded Xia Yu was still very calm, and he would answer nothing no matter how many people were asking.

An Yilun and Eri Yinglili also looked on speechlessly at the back.

They finally understood this Chinese guy named Xia Yu seemed to be an employee of Xia’s restaurant!

“Xia Yu, Xia’s restaurant…” An Yilun also lowered his head slightly to disguise the excitement on his face. He pushed his big round glasses.

“Can we finally eat the food of this restaurant today?” Eri Yinglili shook her shoulders excitedly beside him but she tried to suppress this excitement due to the fear that the angry crowd would tear them apart.

Seeing that Xia Yu directly led the two people into the shop, there were riots and protests from the queue.

A little fat man in the first place of the queue anxiously stepped forward to grab Xia Yu’s clothes and said, “You can’t do this. This is a queue. You can’t abuse privileges… As an employee of a restaurant, you can’t break the service rules like this!”

The little fat man was flushed with anxiety.

He obviously cared about his position. He was originally ranked first. After opening the store at 6 o’clock, he would be the first to take a seat and order a meal while looking back at the long queue behind. It would naturally give him a sense of ‘superiority’.

Xia Yu glanced behind him, but he didn’t see his partner, so he should have come by himself.

“They are my friends,” Xia Yu explained, and took off the fat man’s hand which grabbed his clothes. He patted his shoulders and smiled slightly. “Relax. They are not guests, nor will they be dining in the store, occupying your position. You are still the first guest of our restaurant today… Thank you for your support of our restaurant! I will let the kitchen do one more dish for you for free as our gratitude!”

The little fat man froze.

After Xia Yu took An Yilun and Eri Yinglili, disappearing through the storefront, a group of people suddenly surrounded the little fat man angrily.
