Chapter Forty-Nine: Becoming a Miscellaneous Family
Well, if this sentence is said by another person, it may seem a little lacking in a professional attitude, but if the speaker is replaced by Xiao Geyan, it will make people feel as if there is nothing wrong with it.
The two of them decided to leave immediately and go to the airport to pick up Su Manwen's parents, Bai Xue stood up, looked at the cup of coffee in front of him that still had two-thirds left, didn't think much about it, took it up and drank it all, the posture and speed were quite heroic, and after drinking, she put down the cup and found that Xiao Geyan was looking at her.
"What, what's wrong?" Bai Xue was a little uncomfortable, and quickly pulled a tissue from the table to wipe her mouth.
"Aren't you worried about flustering when the coffee is drunk so fast?" Xiao Geyan pointed to the empty cup on the table.
"I didn't think about it that much, but when I was a child, I went out to eat, and I would never have any drinks left, otherwise I would feel wasted, and I felt very guilty in my heart. Bai Xue was embarrassed to say her habits.
Xiao Geyan raised his eyebrows after hearing this, picked up his half cup of coffee on the table, and drank it all like Bai Xue, then wiped off the coffee stains from the corner of his mouth, and motioned to her: "Okay, let's go." ”
The two went downstairs to get into the car and went straight to the direction of the airport, because the highway leading to the airport was just in time for maintenance, and they had to take a detour, which took a little longer than expected, Bai Xue called Su Manwen's parents on the road according to the contact information sent by Shi Dahe, explaining the problem of the road conditions, so that they could wait with peace of mind, don't be impatient, and he and Xiao Geyan would rush over as soon as possible.
After hanging up, she took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, repeating the action.
"Are you nervous about calling the victim's family?" Xiao Geyan noticed her move.
Bai Xue shook her head: "I'm not nervous, but I'm a little panicked, I feel like my heart is beating very fast, and my breath is a little bit out of breath, I guess...... Maybe you said it right, Fang just drank the coffee too quickly and too quickly, and now there is a reaction!"
Xiao Geyan didn't feel any surprise at all when he heard her say this, after all, this was something he had expected a long time ago, so he didn't react much, just stretched out his hand and pointed to the back seat: "The snack you gave me in the morning is still in my bag, take it out and eat a little, eating some sweets will relieve it sooner." ”
Bai Xue leaned over and took Xiao Geyan's backpack from the back seat, opened it and found that it really matched his personality, there were not many things in the bag, and it was very neat, the brownie he gave him in the morning was near the mouth of the bag, Bai Xue took out the brownie and put the bag back.
"I eat in your car, you really don't mind, do you?" she asked cautiously.
Xiao Geyan turned his head to look at her, his tone seemed to be a little ridiculous, and he replied as if it was true or not: "As long as you are responsible for cleaning up, I don't mind." ”
"It's okay, don't worry, I'll try not to get dirty!" Bai Xue said as she carefully pinched a small piece from the plastic bag and put it in her mouth, for fear of falling out of a little dregs.
Very fragrant, slightly sweet, very satisfying, but not too sweet and greasy, this kind of grasp of proportion is really very exquisite, a little more is too strong, a little less and easy to make the taste of chocolate slightly bitter.
The next time you meet Jiang Cheng, you must ask where his shop is opened, and when you are not busy and free in the future, you can patronize it, after all, such a delicious thing is hard to find.
Bai Xue thought about it while tasting the dim sum in her mouth, and was a little distracted for a while.
"Is it that delicious?" Xiao Geyan suddenly asked.
Bai Xue came back to her senses, and it took a second or two to realize what Xiao Geyan was talking about, and she quickly nodded: "Well, it's really delicious, do you want to give it a try? By the way, didn't you also drink half a cup of coffee in one go? Do you feel flustered and short of breath now? I think you should also eat a little, so as not to feel uncomfortable!"
"I'm driving, I can't get my hands out. Xiao Geyan lightly tapped the fingers of both hands on the steering wheel a few times.
"Then I'll feed you!" Bai Xue replied very naturally, she didn't think much about it, at that moment she just felt that Xiao Geyan was driving, and if he also had a panicked shortness of breath reaction, it would not be good for safe driving.
Xiao Geyan didn't agree, but he didn't say no, Bai Xue pinched a piece of brownie out, carefully made sure that there were no crumbling dim sum dregs on it, and then reached over and handed it to Xiao Geyan.
Xiao Geyan lowered her eyelids and looked at it, Bai Xue deliberately pinched a small piece, just the amount of a mouthful, her fingers were very fair, as if they were moisturized like fine mutton fat white jade, the nails were cut very short and neat, clean, and the fingertips were slightly ruddy and bloody, Xiao Geyan carefully bit the snack between her fingers with her teeth, her lips still touched Bai Xue's fingers, her fingertips were warm and delicate.
"How is it?, is it delicious?" Bai Xue saw that Xiao Geyan ate it without refusal, and hurriedly asked expectantly, just like a child, what he liked, he also wanted to be recognized by others.
Xiao Geyan nodded: "Yes, the quality of the chocolate raw materials is very high, it should be the beans of Criolo." ”
"Yes, yes, my neighbor seems to be talking about this name, is it a good cocoa bean?" Bai Xue heard the name that Jiang Cheng had introduced to him at that time, and asked with some curiosity.
"Well, it belongs to the absolutely excellent type of cocoa beans, which may be a little rarer than the Arabica in the coffee beans, and the price of Crioro cocoa beans is generally not cheap, and your neighbor's dessert shop seems to be of a good grade. Xiao Geyan replied.
Bai Xue immediately dispelled Fang Cai's idea of having the opportunity to go to the Jiangcheng store in the future, although the things were delicious, but his consumption level still needed to be considered.
"Huh, how do you know so much about chocolate?" she suddenly became a little curious, after all, for most people, if you want to talk about famous chocolate brands, you can more or less mention a few, but the varieties of cocoa beans, if you are not a chocolate lover, or a practitioner of dessert making, I am afraid that no one may know.
"Otherwise, do you think that if I study criminology, I don't know anything about everything except this subject area?" Xiao Geyan shook his head, "Crime itself is an act that combines many complex elements, and it may involve a lot of fields, if you want to study it, you must first turn yourself into a miscellaneous person, otherwise you can only be a nerd who holds on to theories and is useless." ”
