Chapter 383 Wonderful
Dong Xiang has always liked Han Jiang's cooking skills, liked the exciting new feeling, liked the moving heat that rekindled the passion in the body, liked the vitality in the dishes, and liked the splendor that bloomed in an instant.

He even thought at one point that only this kind of fleeting splendor and this beauty full of regrets could be unforgettable.

Precisely because it disappears at its most beautiful moment, leaving behind too many regrets, people continue to beautify it, look forward to it, and imagine its most perfect moment.

Human imagination is endless. As long as it still exists in the imagination, it will remain the most beautiful.

And once that regretful taste is completed, perhaps at the moment of completion, it loses its charming charm, its moving spirit, and the perfection that is constantly filled by people's imagination.

Because there is no perfect thing in the world. It is only perfect when it does not exist in reality.

Once the imagined perfection comes into reality, it will continue to fall from the state of perfection until it becomes a flawed thing, no different from other things in the world.

Therefore, even though Dong Fang was full of expectations for Xu Qing's dish, he did not think that the dish could be perfect.

As long as something exists in reality, it cannot be perfect.

Dong Fang had always thought so before tasting this dish.

However, the moment he put the dish into his mouth, he suddenly realized that he was wrong.

The taste in the mouth is so broad and profound that it brings a new feeling every moment.

Those thrilling and shocking feelings are endless, as if they will never come to an end. It always keeps people feeling new and novel, and it seems that people will never get bored.

A new taste is born in the mouth every moment, as if every moment you are experiencing new fun and seeing new scenery. No fun is repeated and no scenery is the same.

It makes people immersed in it wholeheartedly, and they just want to live in such a world forever, experiencing the boundless happiness and satisfaction.

This should be the perfect thing.

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, it was immediately rejected by Dong Fang.

It's not perfect, absolutely not.

At a certain moment it did reach perfection, but in the next second, this perfection was destroyed by its own hands.

Destroy, then reshape, reshape this taste into something new. It surpasses the perfection of the past second, evolves into a new taste, and moves towards a new goal again.

What is the destination ahead? What is the final destination?
What is the final perfection that awaits it ahead?
Many questions arose in Dong Fang's mind.

And in the end, these questions have the same answer.

There is no perfection. What it pursues is a state that can never be reached.

Keep moving forward, constantly surpass your past self, and move forward tirelessly.

It will never be perfect because it will never stop.

It just keeps changing, bringing new fun and new feelings.

To Dong Fang, this was simply too beautiful, so beautiful that it seemed like something that did not exist in reality.

Even after tasting it himself, he still had a strange illusion, as if he was dreaming, as if deep in his heart he did not believe that there was such a beautiful thing in the world. But it did exist, no matter how impossible it was, it still appeared in the world through Xu Qing's hands, fell into everyone's mouth, and took root in everyone's heart.

Let this dreamlike beauty spread to the world and let everyone be immersed in full happiness and peace.

Dong Fang sighed softly. He never expected that there really was such a powerful person in the world who could not only give people a strong impact and a novel feeling, but also prolong the shock and novel feeling of that moment infinitely, giving people an endless happy experience.

Dong Fang couldn't help but compare Xu Qing's dish with Han Jiang and A Mao's dishes. At this moment, he felt more clearly why the old man said that their dishes were not up to standard.

In front of such a wonderful dish, Han Jiang and A Mao’s dishes were like two toddlers. Even their best features were still too simple compared to this dish.

Dong Fang's perception was refreshed by this dish, and at the same time, it changed his view of what perfection is.

This is an imperfectly perfect dish, and the most perfect thing about it is that it will never be perfect.

Dong Fang was deeply impressed by the dish, and at the same time he admired the old man's vision even more.

The old man actually knew clearly that Xu Qing could make such wonderful dishes. He was indeed extraordinary and amazing!

As for the old man, even though he had some confidence in Xu Qing, Xu Qing's dish still greatly surprised him.

In his original idea, Xu Qing could integrate the two flavors into one, combining the lingering aftertaste and the strong shock at that moment, and that was enough.

The old man’s idea is to give diners a strong shock at first, and then this shock will turn into a long and gentle aftertaste, leaving a long aftertaste.

In his opinion, Han Jiang and A Mao’s dishes were like two strange-looking creatures, one with a head but no tail, and the other with a tail but no head. Only when the two were combined could they be considered a complete dish.

So when the old man tasted the dishes prepared by the two of them, he felt an indescribable awkwardness.

He originally just hoped that Xu Qing could take the strengths and complement the weaknesses of the two dishes and combine them into a complete dish.

But Xu Qing’s dishes are much more than that.

He did not simply put them together, but analyzed each dish separately, took out their most essential parts, and reshaped them into a brand new dish.

This dish delivers endless impact and shock, while also giving people a feeling of peace and happiness.

It turns a momentary novel feeling into a boundless experience, allowing the taste buds to feel happy and joyful every moment.

Xu Qing was not simply going through the motions to fulfill his promise or to complete the task, but he really tried his best to make this dish perfect and turn the impossible into possible.

The old man's eyes and heart were full of amazement and shock.

Xu Qing's strength shocked him even more than what he had heard and understood.

The secret of his dishes, the passion and persistent pursuit he holds as a chef, are absolutely hard to imagine, let alone understand, unless you have tasted his dishes in person.

And at this moment, the old man finally made up his mind.

Xu Qing is the person he is looking for, the one he has been waiting for, and the one who is worthy of him entrusting everything to.
