Chapter 592: Double Happiness Comes to the Door
Qin Yi decided to put his agreement with Li Sisi first, not for anything else, but because he thought it was interesting: Li Sisi was basically the same type as Xia Yuxin, and he didn't know anything about cooking, as if he was flawed in this regard, and their little brains just couldn't understand how a dish changed from a material to a finished product.
Therefore, on this day, Qin Yi asked Li Sisi to bring the bento she made to his house and meet Cheng Hua.
"I thought you were calling me to talk about your marriage. Cheng Hua whispered.
"Yes, I also informed Hawkeye that when this is done, we'll go out for a drink or two together in the afternoon. Qin Yi laughed quietly, and then turned to Li Sisi, "How about it, the teacher didn't lie to you, right?"
Cheng Hua showed a stiff smile and greeted Li Sisi. Li Sisi waved to Cheng Hua with a sweet and lovely appearance and smiled: "Brother Hua, I made you a bento, you can taste it, I have studied it for a long time." ”
"Ah......" Cheng Huamu replied, "I don't care so much about food......
At this time, Qin Yi reminded in a low voice: "If you think it's delicious, you have to go out on a date with this girl." ”
Cheng Hua's face froze instantly, looking extremely nervous, as if he was thinking about how to refuse so as not to hurt Li Sisi's feelings, and he didn't need to use it as an excuse to be unpalatable. But Qin Yi knew that this was obviously not something Cheng Hua was good at.
"Is it really good for you to be like this? I think Cheng Hua seems to be very embarrassed. Xia Yuxin asked hesitantly on the side, Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly: "That's why it's interesting, how can you reject her in the face of a junior who worships you?"
"You're really bad-hearted...... Xia Yuxin frowned and muttered.
Immediately, Li Sisi took out a bento and opened it in front of them.
"Yo?" Qin Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows, "It doesn't look bad, is this what you did?"
The bento in front of him is ordinary, but compared to the one Li Sisi made last time, it looks great.
Fried crispy chicken cutlets, two small sausages, shredded cabbage, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and two slices of sliced rabbit apples, visually, at least normal food that can be eaten. Unlike the bento that Li Sisi brought to him last time, the eggs were mushy, and the cabbage wilted and yellowish, as if it had been collected from someone else's leftover plate.
"Of course! I've been practicing since a week ago, and I've failed many times before I made a decent one. Li Sisi hugged his arms and said with a smile, then turned to Cheng Hua and said with a smile: "Brother Hua, you can taste it." ”
"Ah, hmm......" Cheng Hua replied with some embarrassment, and then grabbed the chopsticks and tasted it.
"Oh, Lao Qin, for the sake of you calling Brother Hua over, I'll give you some food. You have to feel honored, the man who has eaten the food made by this girl in this life is the only one except Brother Hua. Li Sisi muttered.
"Hasn't your dad eaten it?" it seems that he knows the risks very well......" Qin Yi smiled bitterly, grabbed his chopsticks and tasted it, then frowned and hesitated: "Hmm...... How to say it. ”
"Is it delicious? Brother Hua. Li Sisi looked at Cheng Hua expectantly and said with a smile.
"This ......" Cheng Hua hesitated, beads of sweat running down his forehead.
"Isn't it to your liking?" Li Sisi asked worriedly, Cheng Hua shook his head again and again, and explained: "No, no, I've never been so particular about eating. So ......"
Hearing this, Li Sisi smiled happily: "So, it's delicious?"
"This ......" Cheng Hua hesitated again, because if he said "delicious", he was going to go on a date with Li Sisi.
"Old Qin, did you hear that?" Li Sisi turned to Qin Yi and said proudly, "You promise me!"
"Poof......" Qin Yi forced a smile on the side, observing the reaction on Cheng Hua's face.
"Don't make a fuss...... Xia Yuxin couldn't help it at this time, pinched Qin Yi's waist, and muttered through gritted teeth. Qin Yi took a breath of cold air in pain, so he had to clear his throat and say, "So, Sisi, do you think you are satisfied with this?"
Li Sisi looked at Qin Yi puzzled and asked, "But, Brother Hua, he thinks it's delicious?"
"Then let me ask you, you said that you wanted to make a bento for Cheng Hua, did you ask me what he likes to eat?" Qin Yi asked with a smile.
Li Sisi was silent for a moment, indeed, she didn't ask Cheng Hua what she liked to eat once, she just made a simple and delicious meal according to her own ideas. Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, chicken cutlets, and shredded cabbage are some of the basics that are easy to learn, less prone to mistakes when cooking, and look good together.
"Of course, in fact, it is normal to cook what you are good at, and the dishes I cook for Ms. Xia are not always her favorite dishes, but do you know where the gap between me and you is? That is, not only did you not ask Cheng Hua what dishes he likes to eat, but you also didn't ask what flavors he likes to eat, whether it is sweet or spicy. Qin Yi nodded and said seriously.
"Hmm...... That's true. Xia Yuxin thought for a while at this time and muttered, "The taste of the dishes in Xiaoyi's bento box is indeed always adjusted according to my preferences, such as seasonings such as chili peppers and onions, ginger and garlic. ”
"Right, you haven't asked, have you?" Qin Yi patted Li Sisi's head and asked, "Actually, Cheng Hua likes green onions very much, and when he eats out, he must give green onions to eat whether it is fried rice or noodle soup." Tomato scrambled eggs are the same, but ......"
Saying that, Qin Yi looked down at the bento, the tomato scrambled eggs were just tomato scrambled eggs. Therefore, Qin Yi continued: "Of course, from the perspective of bento, this is indeed a successful bento. However, if it is used as a bento for those who like it, it is not so successful. Don't you think so?"
Li Sisi frowned, pouting a little unconvinced, Qin Yi touched her head and smiled: "After all, it's not so easy to make a bento for someone you like, right?"
"Okay, I got it......" Li Sisi muttered quietly, and then prepared to put away the lunch.
However, at this time, Cheng Hua suddenly held down the bento, and then shook his head: "No, I think it's a great bento, it's just a puppet...... Qin Yi, your requirements are too high. It doesn't have that many details, but I don't agree with that to say that it doesn't have a heart. How can a girl who is not good at cooking try to make such an exquisite bento that it does not contain a heart? Although it is ordinary, it is indeed very delicious. ”
"Damn, this kid demolishes my platform?" Qin Yi looked at Cheng Hua with some consternation on the side.
He has known Cheng Hua for so long, and he never knew that Cheng Hua was such a sharp person. Cheng Hua thought that he was the kind of person who could do his hands and never open his mouth, and Qin Yi was just the opposite, but he didn't expect that at this time, he would actually come to dismantle his own platform. Therefore, Qin Yi looked at him with some suspicion: "Then, you mean, you just go out on a date with this little girl?"
Cheng Hua thought about it for a while, seemed to have made up his mind, and then turned to Li Sisi and smiled: "Then please give me more advice?"
Li Sisi looked very happy, and jumped up from the chair: "Well, is it okay tomorrow, Brother Hua? I'll go back today to prepare and dress myself up." ”
"Well, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. Cheng Hua nodded.
Li Sisi was really happy, and before leaving, he hammered Qin Yi, and said with a bright smile: "Thank you Lao Qin, although you are disagreeing with me, I still want to thank you for calling Brother Hua over to taste the bento I made." ”
After sending Li Sisi away, Qin Yi hugged his arm and turned to Cheng Hua beside him: "Then, what's the matter?"
"It's not a way to go on like this, and you can't always take my prize as your student. Cheng Hua frowned, looked at the direction Li Sisi left and sighed, "This time I want to make it clear to her and tell her that I am not suitable for her." ”
"Yo, aren't you afraid of hurting people's hearts?" Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and asked.
"It's better to be sad now than to be sad in the future, you always have to get to that point, and the sooner you make it clear, the better. After a long time, the feelings are deeper, and if you refuse again, it will be even more sad. Cheng Hua gritted his teeth and said.
"That's how you comforted yourself, and then retired and now you're the only one along the way?" Qin Yi teased.
"I ......" Cheng Hua subconsciously wanted to answer, but then he looked at Qin Yi vigilantly and asked, "...... Isn't it using this little girl to give me psychotherapy? It's a lot like your usual style. ”
"Well...... What the hell is going on?" Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled subtly.
Cheng Hua glared at Qin Yi with some suspicion, then hugged his arms and sighed: "Anyway, I will make it clear to this little girl." Don't use me as a prize for your students in the future, I'm serious. ”
Qin Yi smiled innocently and said, "Why, don't you feel happy communicating with young people?"
Cheng Hua's face sank, and there was a threatening look in his eyes when he looked at Qin Yi.
"Just kidding. Qin Yi hurriedly patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "I know you're afraid of a woman." ”
Cheng Hua's brows trembled inadvertently, as if he didn't expect Qin Yi to guess.
"It's the woman who went to your apartment last time? Qin Yi turned around and walked towards the community, and asked with a smile, "She found out your true identity, and you don't want to change your face and fall in love for a long time, right?"
"You know, you're a bit of a nuisance sometimes. Cheng Hua frowned, and Qin Yi shrugged: "I know, who made this professional." Anyway, when you said you wanted to make it clear to the kid, I knew about it. With your personality of not being good at communicating with people, you are actually determined to make it clear to this child, so there must be someone outside, right?"
Saying that, Qin Yi punched Cheng Hua in the shoulder and teased: "This is also good, you have been retired for so many years, and you have not felt lonely and panicked all the time? It's time to find a wife to vent." You see, I retired so long after you, and now I'm about to get married. You're just making a double happiness, so you don't have to be a bodyguard at my wedding, right?"
"I'm not like you, I don't coax women, even now it's a headache for me. Cheng Hua said distressedly, Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "That's just right, I'll teach you later, how to deal with women, you straight man of steel." And you have to tell me how you got together with that female lawyer, Hawkeye must be interested......"
Next, Qin Yi took Cheng Hua to pick a small bar to meet Hawkeye, and the three of them found a secluded corner, ordered a few glasses of wine and snacks and chatted. And Hawkeye's reaction was exactly the same as Qin Yi expected, which was really interesting.
"Cheng Hua, is there a woman?" asked Hawkeye looking at Qin Yi expressionlessly.
Qin Yi nodded, while Cheng Hua treated him coldly. Eagle Eye then looked at Cheng Hua, looked at him for a while, and then turned to Qin Yi and asked, "Is it a real living person?"
"Hmm...... Probably, I've only heard her speak on the phone, not a living person, at least an artificial AI. Qin Yi replied with a smile, while Hawkeye shook his head and sighed, raised his wine glass and drank the brandy in the glass: "This world is really changing too fast. What miracle will follow? Will the United States never again interfere in the internal affairs of other countries?"
"Speaking of which," Qin Yi filled Hawkeye with another glass, "the United States has really been taught many times in this regard." ”
"Not really. Cheng Hua snorted with his nose, as if he was happy to finally interject, "I don't even remember how many times I intercepted American intelligence agents, they just never learn to be obedient, even if they know how many pounds and taels they have." ”
"America...... Hawkeye sneered, and the three of them also started the "agent topic".
Just like the old days.
