The banquet was held at noon today. Gu Sisi and Uncle Ma got busy early in the morning. Gu Sisi also told Uncle Ma about Ying Zhaoxia's absence from the manor.

Uncle Ma was not surprised by this, he said that after he knew about it, he concentrated on making the noon banquet.

He has been in France for so many days, and he also has some understanding of the local customs and customs here. The dishes he is making now are all based on the dietary conditions of the people here, and then reform the Chinese food, so as to make the most suitable for their tastes. meals.

Gu Sisi also tasted it, but she thought it was still as delicious as before. Uncle Ma didn't express his attitude towards it. He just smiled and continued to do his own thing.

Near noon, the door of the courtyard was finally opened, and a group of people filed in, took away all the dishes prepared by Uncle Ma, and then retreated.

Such behavior lasted less than 10 minutes, during which no one spoke.

After they all left, the door was locked again, blocking Gu Sisi's prying eyes.

"Dad, I always feel that they look down on people." Gu Sisi curled her lips, a little dissatisfied.

Uncle Ma touched Gu Sisi's head: "After all, he is an earl. As long as this banquet ends smoothly, we don't have to worry so much."

"I hope everything goes well." Gu Sisi made a wish with Uncle Ma in a decent manner, and then went back to the room.

The four children did not come out again, and both the small building and the grass were silent.

The mobile phone is on the table, and now even the signal is blocked, one can imagine how important the meeting at noon is.

Where Gu Sisi complained in his heart, at this time, the mining plan was intertwined, and many people were chatting and laughing at the banquet.

These are people who work for the Edward family, as well as people brought by the party who came today. They enjoy the banquet here, and the real mainstream negotiating force is on the second floor with Dominic and the others.

The dishes were brought up plate by plate. The man in black sniffed his nose and suddenly raised his hand.

Dominique was startled: "What do you mean, sir?"

Is there any poison in this dish?This man has a good nose.

But the man in black didn't do that, he just lowered his hood, revealing the... mask under the hood.

He had been wearing a hood and lowered his head before, and Dominic didn't see his appearance clearly, only now did he realize that he was actually wearing a mask all the time.

Is there any need to be so cautious?Dominique was full of thoughts in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.

"This dish is pretty good." The masked man said this dish aloud.

"The dishes are specially brought by the chef according to the instructions of the husband." Dominique felt that cold sweat was breaking out on his forehead, and he still did not forget to explain it.

"What we discussed before..." Dominic wanted to ask, but was stopped by the masked man.

He didn't know where to find a bowl, and handed it to the people below: "I have a bowl of rice."

Seeing the servant leaving with the bowl, he looked at Dominic: "We can talk about the cooperation slowly. I have traveled for many days and came here, and now I am empty. Master Dominic won't let me negotiate on an empty stomach, right?" ?”

Obviously, it should be the scene where the two forces and the bosses meet, but now the weird masked man on the opposite side is acting very... informal.

Dominic laughed dryly: "How could you be hungry, sir, just eat."

"Okay!" The masked man responded directly to Dominic's polite words, and ate the dishes on the table with the rice.

He only said that he was hungry and didn't let others, so the others didn't move their chopsticks, just watched him eat by himself.

Dominic wasn't hungry at first, but looking at his eating appearance, he felt a little hungry for a while.

As soon as he picked up the chopsticks, he saw the masked man sitting up straight, looking at him with a smile.

Dominic secretly thought it was bad, and as expected, the masked man said slowly: "If Master Dominic is fine, why don't you tell me about the cooperation, I'll eat first, it doesn't matter."

What he meant was that he didn't want Dominic to eat, and wanted to monopolize a table of delicious food by himself.

Dominic showed a stiff smile. The etiquette of many years of contact prevented him from swearing at this time, so he shook his head and said, "No, let's wait until the husband finishes eating."

This time Dominic didn't move his chopsticks again, and the masked man didn't talk about cooperation.

After he finished the meals on the big table, less than an hour had passed.

The masked man not only eats deliciously, but also eats very quickly.

"We can talk about things." The masked man took out a tissue, wiped his mouth, and put the hood back on, and then he returned to his previous appearance.

But this time, Dominic no longer believed in the coldness and calmness he showed.

Dominic talked about the intention of cooperation and negotiation between the two parties, and the masked man listened carefully, adding a few words from time to time.

In general, this cooperation is a joy for both the host and the guest.

Even if this is just the idea of ​​the masked man alone.

Gu Sisi and Uncle Ma really stayed here for a long time, and no one mentioned the matter of going out.

Just when Gu Si was thinking about when the banquet would be over, the door was opened.

Gu Sisi stood up and saw not only the butler, but also Dominic and a man in black with a hood covering his face outside the door.

Gu Sisi's intuition told her that this man was very dangerous.

"What do you mean?" Uncle Ma stood in front of Gu Sisi, looked down at the group of people in front of him, and was extra vigilant, lest they suddenly attack.

"It's like this. The success of this banquet is thanks to Mr. Ma's banquet, so we are going to give you the reward we agreed before." The butler came over and handed over a badge with a smile.

Gu Sisi glanced at it with a subtle expression, isn't this the badge of that organization?
She remembered that when she asked Su Ge before, Su Ge made it very clear that their organization did not provide services such as helping to see people.

So where is Ying Zhaoxia now?

Facing Gu Sisi's suspicious gaze, the hooded man who had been silent all this time said, "The person you are looking for is in our organization, come back with me, I can help you bring him out."

"How can I be sure what you said is true?" Uncle Ma didn't trust the man in front of him, his tone was cold.

"What he said is true, and Ms. Ying was not taken away by us. Someone else took Ms. Ying away. We just helped to intercept the group of people and handed them over to this gentleman's organization. They take good care of them." Dominic spoke now.

As the next earl, his words naturally carry enough weight. After his explanation, Gu Sisi and Uncle Ma believed the man in the hood to some extent.

"When are you leaving?" Gu Sisi didn't have a good impression of Dominic, but now she was in the earl's mansion, and everything Dominic said and did was the earl's will, so she shouldn't lie to herself, so she asked about the time.

"Don't worry, we will leave tomorrow. By the way, can I stay with you tonight?" At this time, it was the man in the hood who spoke, and there was a sense of impatience in his tone.

Uncle Ma subconsciously clenched Gu Sisi's hand, pulled Gu Sisi back, and frowned at Dominic.

Dominique followed suit and nodded: "Mister won't do anything to you, you can rest assured, since the matter has been finished, we will go back first."

After saying that, Dominic and the butler left directly, leaving only the man in the hood, Gu Sisi and Uncle Ma.

Gu Sisi noticed that they did not lock the door this time.

Both Gu Sisi and Uncle Ma looked at the man in the hood warily, but he didn't take it seriously, and even took off the hood directly to reveal the mask inside.

"Master Ma, I have admired your name for a long time." The hooded man should be smiling at Uncle Ma. Although he couldn't see the expression, just from his words, he must be very happy now.

Moreover, he still spoke standard Chinese, which surprised both Uncle Ma and Gu Sisi.

"You are?" Although the two of them were still a little wary of him at this time, speaking Chinese had already made Uncle Ma's attitude towards him much better.

"I have been your fan since I was a child. Your cooking is really delicious. I ate it once when I was a child, and I have never forgotten it. I never thought that I can still eat your dishes today. I am really happy." Dominique As soon as he left, the man stopped pretending and directly grabbed Uncle Ma's hand, speaking agitatedly, completely ignoring Gu Sisi to the side.

Gu Sisi didn't expect that the expert he was on guard against was actually a fan of Uncle Ma, and even had only eaten Uncle Ma's meal once before.

Does Uncle Ma have such a big influence?
It was because Gu Sisi was limited by his thinking when he met Uncle Ma. Before meeting Gu Sisi, Uncle Ma could be regarded as the leader of the entire Chinese cooking industry. After he disappeared, he was mourned by various newspapers for a long time.

So although the masked man is not young now, he is still very enthusiastic about Uncle Ma.

He had heard that there was a chef from Huaguo who was surnamed Ma and had done palace banquets before, and he didn't have much hope in his heart, who knew it was really him.

"You're too polite..." Uncle Ma had never encountered such an occasion, and he was a little embarrassed, not knowing what he should do.

The masked man shook his head: "Master Ma, you must not see me outside, you are really my idol, that is, can I ask, where did you go when you disappeared all those years?"

Uncle Ma told about his murder, and the masked man showed a particularly indignant look, and scolded those people for a long time, only to be persuaded by Uncle Ma to give up.

Although Gu Sisi was sure that this person would not cause any harm to Uncle Ma, she still sat by and watched, for fear of any accidents.
