CHAPTER XIII
It turns out that in front of simple people, you can't explain the double meaning of "hungry".
Zhou Yanqi was uncomfortable by Ling Beibei's curious eyes, he stood up, grabbed his hair a little irritably, turned around in place, and said helplessly along with her words: "Enγγγ I'm hungry now, can you go to dinner with me?"
Hearing him say this, Ling Beibei felt as if she was also a little hungry. From morning to now, she has been staying with him in Zhou's family, and she has drunk two sips of grape juice at noon, if he hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, she might have forgotten that it was already evening.
It was originally a long time, and staying with Zhou Yanqi became a little fast.
"What do you want to eat? I'm also a little hungry, do you know what's delicious around here?" Ling Beibei simply cleaned up the documents on the table, took his small bag, and looked at Zhou Yanqi expectantly.
Zhou Yanqi usually goes to a lot of high-end restaurants, and there is nothing special about it, he thought about it and decided to take her to eat his favorite small restaurant before.
The small restaurant was in a very narrow alley, and the car couldn't drive in, so the two of them walked in.
Zhou Yanqi never spoke. In fact, he didn't talk much all day today, which was very different from usual.
He didn't speak, Ling Beibei accompanied him silently, step by step.
The bright moonlight cast colorful shadows on the side of the road, and the black shadows on the ground followed when the branches swayed, and Zhou Yanqi suddenly shouted: "Be careful!"
Ling Beibei was startled, and subconsciously grabbed him beside him with both hands, hiding behind him, his face panicked.
Zhou Yanqi succeeded in his prank and laughed.
"Hey!" Ling Beibei blew up directly, "Why are you like this!"
Zhou Yanqi smiled very happily, and Ling Beibei despised him with a tiger face: "It's so naΓ―ve!"
Zhou Yanqi raised his eyebrows and shook her in his hand, "You have itchy skin, dare to yell at me?"
Ling Beibei didn't speak, and the beautiful apricot eyes of the boss glared at him. Zhou Yanqi is the most afraid of staring at people in his life, and he is staring back at the moment. Probably because the moonlight is too beautiful, after staring at it for a long time, the ordinary baby face in front of him has become a little ...... Delicious and delicious.
Ahem...... Zhou Yanqi looked away, "Let's go, it's too late to go and there is no seat." β
Ling Beibei is definitely a good child, when she saw him admit defeat first, she forgave him and obediently followed him and trotted behind.
The reason for her trotting was that Zhou Yanqi's steps were too big, and he kept holding her hand.
After getting along closely for the past few days, both of them seem to be enjoying themselves.
Zhou Yanqi took her to a private Hunan restaurant, the owner is an authentic Hunanese, the crayfish are big and fresh, and you can smell the fragrance from afar. In the past, when he was in college, Zhou Yanqi went to patronize every three or five days, and later took over Zhou's, the time is no longer as rich as before, and he goes less often, but he still misses this taste from time to time.
The boss is a kind old man, he saw Zhou Yanqi walking in with a beautiful girl, smiled kindly, and cleaned up a table for them alone. The store is not very big, but the environment is very clean, and the other diners are immersed in enjoying the food, and even the voice is very quiet.
"What do you want to eat this time?" There is no menu in the store, and they are all freshly prepared according to the ingredients of the day.
Zhou Yanqi was familiar with the road, and ordered all the specialties of the store, and at the end he turned his face and asked Ling Beibei: "Can you eat spicy?"
Ling Beibei is a typical unspicy person, at first I was worried that Zhou Yanqi wouldn't be too spicy, but when I heard him ask, Ling Beibei nodded very happily.
Freshly cooked food takes time, the boss is afraid that they will be bored, so he specially sent a plate of freshly made sugar and oil baba, the sweet and soft glutinous rice is wrapped in a layer of attractive honey color, and Ling Beibei swallowed saliva when he saw it.
"Can I eat a piece first?" a certain foodie woman looked at this plate of snacks, her eyes lit green, and she kept restraining her little hands that were about to move.
Zhou Yanqi was amused by her cute appearance, made a gesture of please, and asked her to eat first, afraid that the sugar oil would drip on her clothes, and carefully laid a few tissues for her.
The glutinous rice is soft and glutinous, and the proportion of sugar wrapped in the outside is just right, which does not overshadow the unique sweetness of glutinous rice, but also makes the taste feel enjoyable, Ling Beibei couldn't help but want to eat the second one after eating the first one, seeing that Zhou Yanqi hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, he was also a little embarrassed to wipe the corners of his mouth.
"Why don't you eat it?" Ling Beibei pushed the plate in front of him, but his eyes were still reluctantly resting on the small golden snack.
Zhou Yanqi had been in contact with all kinds of wealthy daughters before, and they either disliked the small restaurants in this kind of alley mercilessly, or sat politely, drinking only the water they brought for the whole meal. It was the first time he had seen Ling Beibei like this, innocent and cute, a small piece of pastry could make her dance happily.
"It's not just sugar, oil and poop here, everything I order is the signature dish here, I'm waiting for them!" Zhou Yanqi winked at her quite proudly.
As soon as she heard this, Ling Beibei immediately put down her chopsticks obediently and sat down at the dinner table.
After waiting for a while, the two pots of crayfish steaming were served, the crayfish were very large, the shell was burned red, and a layer of red pepper was spread on top that made people move their fingers, and the spicy and fragrant taste suddenly exploded in the air, Ling Beibei took a deep breath of satisfaction, and before Zhou Yanqi could speak, she stretched out her hand and grabbed one.
"Zhou Yanqi, do you usually come here?" Someone who was captured by the food, his voice was a little softer, he only thought he was just a gentleman before, but he didn't expect to love life so much.
Zhou Yanqi elegantly peeled a lobster, dipped it in some rich soup, put it in Ling Beibei's bowl, and then quickly peeled one for himself, and his good-looking peach blossom eyes were full of smiles: "No, I used to love it when I was in school." β
Ling Beibei's two willow eyebrows were slightly raised, and she smelled a trace of gossip with her extremely accurate woman's intuition, and she asked, "Later, when you become a single dog, you won't come much, right?"
Zhou Yanqi lived up to expectations and choked himself, he turned his face and coughed muffledly, and his handsome face turned red.
Ling Beibei saw that he was very uncomfortable, so he hurriedly walked over and patted him lightly on the back, while handing him the lemonade on the table, and poured a whole glass of water down, Zhou Yanqi finally got better, he fought back with a dumb voice: "Ling Beibei, can you not only have some love and love in your mind every day, I don't come often because I can't find the right person to be with me." β
You don't know, even if you eat a roadside stall, it's hard to find someone who will have the same eyes as you do.
His words were a little profound, Ling Beibei, who had always done whatever she wanted, couldn't understand it very well, she tilted her head, and a trace of imperceptible loss flashed in her eyes: "Hey, you like your former girlfriend very much?"
If you don't like it very much, how can you force yourself to give up what you used to love?
You're also afraid that these familiar flavors will haunt youγγγγ
Zhou Yanqi spread his hands, "I don't know, maybe I liked it very much at that time." β
As he was talking, the boss came in with a smile and the last dish, it was a very classic chopped pepper fish head, and the chopped peppers on it were made by the boss himself, he looked at Ling Beibei, who was eating seriously, and said to Zhou Yanqi kindly: "Yanqi, is this your friend? You haven't brought a friend for a long time!"
Zhou Yanqi shook the ring on his hand and replied generously: "Uncle Deng, this is my wife." I just got married a while ago. β
Deng Bo smiled even more: "You kid can, marry such a beautiful wife." Girl, you are marrying the right person when you marry Yanqi, and this is the first time I've seen her bring a girl here!"
Ling Beibei heard Deng Bo say this, her pink face turned red in an instant, and she said with a little coquettishness: "Deng Bo, you can't lie to me, he just said that he liked to come very much before!"
Deng Bo is a real person, and hurriedly waved his hand: "He used to love to come here, but he came with male classmates, and he never came here with a girl, I asked him why, this stinky boy didn't say anything, and now he is quietly married, it's so good! Today's meal, Deng Bo invited, I hope you are happy newlywed, happy forever!"
When Ling Beibei heard that she wanted to eat for free, she was immediately embarrassed, and hurriedly took out her wallet to settle the bill, but was pressed by Zhou Yanqi: "No need, even if you force it, Deng Bo will not ask for it, when I came in just now, I had already put the money on the counter, Deng Bo will see it." β
Ling Beibei didn't know what to say, there was only a lot of worship left in her clear eyes, how could there be a man who thought about everything so carefully?
