"What?" Sun Wukong was utterly confused, having forgotten everything.
All he did every day was cook and not think about anything else.
"It's the thing I mentioned before, going to cook for our Buddhism banquet and being the chef for once!"
Oh, that!
Sun Wukong suddenly realized, "The Jade Emperor agreed?"
With responsibility at his job and loyalty to guard, not to mention it being the career he loved, he must give it his all!
"Of course!" Maitreya let out a long belch and patted his belly.
"We've already discussed it with the Jade Emperor."
Turning his head, he took a sip of water to moisten his throat.
"What do you say? Wukong, do you want to come and help? Let them see your cooking skills?"
Sun Wukong did not speak but thought seriously. The first part of the offer didn't matter much, but what Maitreya said next hit right at what Sun Wukong desired.
What he wanted most now was others to recognize his cooking.
"Alright! I'll go!" Sun Wukong finally agreed.
Great!
