Takahashi Airi also had a complex expression. She had always been confident in her own abilities, believing that among young people, there should be few who could surpass her in cooking, but what she didn't expect was that such a genius chef had appeared in her own school.
She had never even heard of a chef who could create medicinal cuisine with such powerful effects. In this field, Satou could definitely be considered a master.
At this moment, she even felt that Satou's dishes, priced at twenty thousand, were actually sold too cheaply.
Because medicinal cuisine is different from other dishes; it also has the effect of regulating the body. For those wealthy people, they wouldn't mind the price.
"You're Satou, right?"
She suddenly said, "I want to hire you as my grandfather's private chef, no matter the cost."
She felt that if her grandfather could eat Satou's specially prepared medicinal cuisine every day, such as the Twice Cooked Pork with medicinal broth from just now, his body would definitely recover very quickly.
The Principal and the others were startled, and the Vice Principal and Teacher Mitaka were both envious and jealous.
"Private chef?"
Satou was stunned for a moment.
"That's right, you only need to be responsible for my grandfather's three meals a day. The workload is very light, and you can come back to continue attending classes during your free time. The money doesn't matter."
Takahashi Airi nodded.
"Let's forget about it."
Satou said.
"Why? Are you not satisfied with the job content? How about this, you only need to prepare one medicinal dish a day, and the money will still be a lot. How about it?"
Takahashi Airi said. In her opinion, this condition was already very good. It would only take two hours at most each day, and she could earn a large sum of money.
"And you are also a student of this school, aren't you? This is a request from the Chairman, you shouldn't refuse, right?"
She added.
Satou frowned, a little displeased with her arrogant attitude, and said, "Actually, I came here this time to handle the withdrawal procedures."
"Handle withdrawal procedures? Why?"
Everyone present, including the Principal and the others, was greatly surprised.
"Mainly because I usually don't have time to come to school, and besides, the Vice Principal was already discussing expelling me before this."
Satou glanced at the Vice Principal and said.
"Expel you? Why?"
Takahashi Airi's eyebrows instantly shot up, and she said angrily.
Expelling such an excellent student, from her perspective as a manager, was simply an extremely foolish act!
Takahashi Fumio also frowned, obviously very displeased.
The cold sweat on the Vice Principal's face immediately streamed down. At this moment, he felt like crying.
"Actually, it's not like that. Because Satou had been taking leave all this time, and we didn't know his situation, that's why..."
The Principal also quickly explained, "And, we haven't truly made a decision yet."
"You really didn't know his situation before?"
Takahashi Airi became even angrier.
As the Principal and Vice Principal, they didn't even know that such an outstanding student had appeared in their own school?
It was simply too derelict!
The Principal had a bitter smile on his face; he was indeed a bit derelict.
"Student, why don't you stay? I'll apologize to you on behalf of the Principal and the others."
Takahashi Fumio said with a kind smile, "From now on, you will be an honorary student of this school. If you don't have time, it's fine not to come to school. What do you think?"
"Chairman, this..."
The Principal and the others were suddenly at a loss for words, as the Chairman was going to apologize on their behalf.
The Vice Principal was even more filled with regret.
Satou hesitated a bit. He had originally planned to withdraw because he didn't have time to attend school, but if it was as he said, it wouldn't be bad at all.
Besides, there were still classmates like Kaga Aoi here.
"That's right, you'll just be nominally enrolled here. You can do whatever you like whenever you want. Tuition is free, and there's an additional scholarship."
Takahashi Airi also said.
Having such a student in the school would greatly help the school's reputation, and she could also maintain a friendly relationship with him.
"Alright then."
Satou finally nodded.
"That's good."
Takahashi Fumio smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "I am very pleased to see such an excellent student in the school."
"Thank you, Chairman."
The Vice Principal and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, it's quite a dereliction of duty that you didn't understand Satou's situation before, especially the Vice Principal."
Takahashi Fumio said, "How about this: the Principal's bonus will be deducted this year, and the Vice Principal will be temporarily relieved of his duties, with his performance over the next three months to be evaluated."
The Principal felt a weight lift from his heart; it was just a bonus deduction, no big deal. However, the Vice Principal's smile was exceptionally bitter. If he didn't perform well, he could be completely fired.
"By the way, are you really not considering the private chef position?"
Takahashi Airi looked at Satou.
"I think I'll pass."
Satou said. He attended Far Moon during the day and ran his shop at night; where would he find the time?
"Such cooking truly should be tasted by more people."
Takahashi Fumio was quite open-minded.
...
"I wonder if the Vice Principal will complain about Satou to the Chairman."
Kaga Aoi sighed, sounding a bit worried.
"He's definitely going to be expelled this time, right?"
Suzuki Mako said with a hint of schadenfreude.
"Yes. He's definitely going to be expelled this time."
"Who told him to keep taking leave?"
The classmates in the class also chimed in, secretly glancing at Erina Nakiri.
Just then, the door to the Principal's office opened, and Takahashi Fumio and Satou walked out, chatting and laughing, with the Principal and others following behind.
"What's going on? Satou and the Chairman seem to have a very good relationship."
"Yeah."
The surrounding students were immediately dumbfounded.
Before long, a student heard about what had just happened from a teacher, immediately causing a stir.
"What? Not only was Satou not expelled, but he's also an honor student? Not only is his tuition waived, but he also receives a scholarship?"
"No way? He even turned down the job as the Chairman's private chef?"
Hearing these pieces of news, everyone was instantly stunned, and Shinichi Suzuki felt his face burning.
Satou didn't go to see off the Chairman. Instead, he walked over to Erina Nakiri, let out a long breath, and said, "It's finally over. Let's go."
"Mhm."
Erina Nakiri smiled slightly, completely oblivious to the gazes of the surrounding boys, and naturally took Satou's hand.
However, after only a few steps, Erina Nakiri's foot suddenly twisted.
"What's wrong?"
Satou asked.
"I twisted my ankle."
Erina Nakiri said, rubbing her foot.
"Don't tell me, you can't wear high heels?"
Satou asked suspiciously.
Erina Nakiri's face immediately flu
