Chapter 3 Experience and the 2nd Guest

```

Chen Ze naturally woke up the next day, and since it was still the weekend, he didn't have to go to the company for work.

"I must have had a hallucination yesterday," Chen Ze yawned and slowly made his way to the bathroom.

After all, a girl from another world, an Elf none the less, popping up in the restaurant he had just inherited was quite far-fetched.

"I should still have about twenty or thirty thousand RMB in my bank card, right? I wonder if that's enough to hire a chef and a few waitstaff." Chen Ze was a bit troubled, the salary levels in K city weren't too high, but if he wanted to make the restaurant he inherited even a bit famous, then he needed to hire a head chef.

And Chen Ze hadn't really considered the salary for a head chef, which he assumed would be a significant expense.

"Should I tell my parents and borrow some money?" Chen Ze rinsed his mouth and glanced at the mirror.

"Forget it, since I graduated from college, I haven't asked my parents for a penny, and I don't want to be ridiculed by my caustic younger sister." After thinking for a while, Chen Ze still gave up this tempting idea.

"Maybe I can discuss it with those goofballs, I'll just give them a call in the afternoon." Chen Ze wiped his face, deciding to talk to his good friends first.

Chen Ze scratched his head and picked up his phone, which had been charging all night. He was ready to go downstairs to take a look.

As soon as he reached the first floor, he saw a shiny silver coin on the table where Rose had eaten yesterday.

"Damn it, this isn't a hallucination, nor is it a dream." Chen Ze was annoyed.

If an Otherworld girl really came to his restaurant yesterday and had a bowl of sauerkraut beef noodles, then all the strategies he had thought of for opening the restaurant were ruined.

Although Chen Ze only went to an ordinary college and didn't have good grades, basically scraping by for four years, he knew what would happen if others found out about this.

Needless to say, if the waitstaff and chefs he hired realized that Elves or some other bizarre creatures were walking into the restaurant, things would get pretty funny.

Calling the police would be a certainty, and then being sent to a lab might also be possible, and with some luck, he could get compensation. With bad luck, he might be taken somewhere and locked up.

Others ran it for so long without incident, but you link to the Otherworld as soon as you start? Who would believe you if you said there wasn't a problem?

Moreover, the old man who handed over the restaurant to him had already passed away.

Chen Ze was not very brave, so he decided it was better to play it safe rather than take unknown risks.

Chen Ze pushed open the door of the restaurant, planning to go to the market to buy some ingredients, and then pick up a few cookbooks.

He was definitely not taking the silver coin with him to see how much it was worth, absolutely not!

Chen Ze touched the silver coin in his pocket, feeling a bit of expectation.

Chen Ze didn't head straight to the market. He planned to buy a couple of cookbooks first, otherwise he wouldn't even know what to cook.

"Hmm... let me see, 'Learn a Dish in Ten Minutes'? That sounds impressive. 'Dessert Novice: Even a Gorilla Can Learn,' desserts seem good too." Chen Ze briefly flipped through the books and decided to buy one about desserts and another about home cooking.

With a clear goal in mind, Chen Ze spent the afternoon gathering all the ingredients he needed and brought them back to the restaurant.

"The good news is that I have the ovens, but the bad news is I don't know how to cook..." Chen Ze looked at the dough that could barely be considered a cake with a wry smile, filled with dejection.

[You have made a failed unidentified object, dessert making experience increased by 1 point]

A row of inexplicable characters appeared in front of Chen Ze.

"What's this?" Chen Ze touched the characters in front of him but felt nothing.

"Is this the System?" Chen Ze, who had read many novels, quickly thought of this.

```

Chen Ze was a bit excited when he discovered this. If he had the System, maybe he could reach the peak of life, and marry a rich and beautiful wife.

However, Chen Ze was quickly disappointed as he found that the System did not have the ability to communicate with him or explain any of his questions.

"But having a System is still a good thing, probably." Chen Ze washed his hands, planning to continue making cakes.

Chen Ze checked the time on his phone, which showed 5:30pm.

"Then let's start my special training." Chen Ze shook his head and continued his culinary journey.

Time always flies when you're focused on something, and before Chen Ze knew it, the time on his phone had reached 10 pm.

Just as Chen Ze stopped making the cake, a line of text appeared before his eyes again.

[You have made a failed, unidentifiable object. Dessert making experience increased by 26 points]

Chen Ze turned and looked at the things he had made. As the creator, he didn't have the guts to take a bite either.

"Although my experience has increased, why do I feel there's no change?" Chen Ze frowned at the cakes he had made.

But after making many, Chen Ze had gained a little insight into cake making, at least he wouldn't make any comical mistakes.

Chen Ze looked around the restaurant, no customers in sight.

"I have no idea how these otherworldly visitors come in." Chen Ze shook his head and continued to make cakes.

Two more hours passed, and Chen Ze looked at the cake he had made with satisfaction and nodded.

After many failures, he had finally made a cake that looked exactly like the one in the recipe, at least it was edible now.

[You have made a failed, unidentifiable object. Dessert making experience has increased by 22 points]

[You have made a barely acceptable cake. Dessert making experience has increased by 2 points]

[You have gained a new passive effect]

[Dessert Novice: Your desserts can barely be swallowed. When you complete making one, there's a very low chance of a random effect being added.]

A series of characters popped up on Chen Ze's face like computer ad pop-ups.

"So, roughly 50 points of experience can get me a passive?" Chen Ze washed his hands, having just calculated the experience he gained today, which just exceeded 50 points.

" 'A very low chance of a random effect being added' what kind of ghost is that?" Chen Ze rolled his eyes.

He hated randomness, as luck-related matters had always bypassed him, making him a complete jinx.

Couldn't pull any good stuff in games, ever got a taste of the big Africa?

Never won a 'buy one get one free' drink offer either; six people in the dorm went out to buy drinks, and he was the only one who never won. Such miserable experiences had made Chen Ze accustomed to his unlucky life, and he had a rather negative perception of randomness and probability.

"Human, what is this place?" A deep voice came from the restaurant.

Chen Ze curiously walked out from the kitchen, and then he saw a burly man with a thick tail standing at the door, who had appeared out of nowhere.

Chen Ze took a deep breath. He could feel a form of ominous pressure emanating from this man.

"Hello, guest, this is the Dream Restaurant." Chen Ze tried his best to maintain a smile.
