Just when Yi Xingchen didn't know whether to talk to Dongfang Lan or not, Dongfang Lan took the lead in opening her mouth after being silent for a while, but there was no trace between the words, a girl and her boyfriend should be happy, and her words immediately made Yi Xingchen understand why: "Xingchen, in the future, can we meet often and contact more? At least, can I find you? I don't want to do this again." Every time, as soon as you leave Rénia, it will be as if the world has evaporated, silently, I don't know where you are? Are we like this, is it normal?"

Dongfang Lan's words, with a complaining tone, Yi Xingchen didn't understand, but even if he didn't want to hide it, how could he explain it clearly to Dongfang Lan in a word, why did he always disappear mysteriously? Moreover, what happened to him, even if he told everything about it, could Dongfang Lan understand?

At this time, Yi Xingchen didn't know how to explain to Dongfang Lan. Secretly sighing in his heart, he said euphemistically: "This is my job, there are some things, I can't help it, of course, I will promise you, I will definitely work hard to improve." ”

Yi Xingchen said while looking at Dongfang Lan, but Dongfang Lan never said a word, and Yi Xingchen didn't know what else to say. He is not a prodigal son in love, and he is not good at reading women's hearts. After thinking about it, he could only change the topic, and wanted to end this unpleasant atmosphere, so he reached into his pocket and prepared to take out the gemstone necklace and give it to Dongfang Lan, which could be regarded as reparation.

Unexpectedly, before he could take out the gemstone necklace, Dongfang Lan suddenly broke out! I saw Dongfang Lan suddenly raise her head, her eyes looked directly at Yi Xingchen, and the anger and grievances in her eyes directly shook Yi Xingchen's heart. He couldn't help but stop moving. At the same time, Dongfang Lan seemed to want to pour out all the grievances that had been pent up for a long time, and shouted angrily at Yi Xingchen: "You said you would change! When did you say that you would change? Tomorrow, next year, or in the next life! Can you really do it! I hope you can attach importance to the relationship between us!"

Speaking of this, Dongfang Lan's eyes had begun to redden, and her shoulders trembled slightly, which showed her emotional struggle. "Which couple, when they first fell in love, weren't all attached to each other! But look at us, what are we?! I don't know, what am I in your heart! Every time, no matter where you go, you don't tell me what you are going to do. I don't know when you'll come back, and I don't even know when you'll come back! Don't you even like to entertain me? So what is our relationship? Not to mention, every time I think of you, I want to see you and hear your voice. Or, when I have something to find you. I couldn't find you, I called you, and the phone couldn't get through every time! I was worried, and it was very uncomfortable......

Dongfang Lan scolded with a crying voice, and said, to the end. There are only sobs of grievance.

This is the first time since the two met, Dongfang Lan's emotional collapse has reached the point of being like this, Yi Xingchen said that it is impossible not to be shocked. Listening to Dongfang Lan's crying all the time, Yi Xingchen was not angry at all. On the contrary, he is more of a self-reproach. What's more, he knew that Dongfang Lan was not a person who liked to make trouble unreasonably, which also made him even more uneasy.

After Dongfang Lan's mood gradually recovered a little, Yi Xingchen hurriedly asked softly, "Did something happen?"

Hearing Yi Xingchen's soft tone, Dongfang Lan's tears suddenly couldn't help but flow, and said, "My mother is sick, I don't know what to do, I want to find you, but I can't find you." ”

"How is she?" Yi Xingchen asked immediately. Sure enough, he was too negligent, Dongfang Lan's life situation has fluctuated so much recently, and he didn't take care of it, no wonder Dongfang Lan's mood fluctuated so much.

"It's not very good. My dad told me to go back to my country and see my mom. Dongfang Lan said.

"Your dad is right, you should go back and see her. Yi Xingchen replied.

"But I want to go back with you. You are my boyfriend, and I hope that at this time, you can be by my side. Dongfang Lan looked at Yi Xingchen expectantly.

Yi Xingchen sighed. This is really a dilemma for him.

He had just gone abroad, and he had just come back, and he hadn't dealt with the affairs of the Shadow Organization yet, and in addition, at this time, Xinghua Island had just been established, and it was precisely because he needed to personally come forward to deal with some necessary issues and protect the security of the new country, so how could he walk away at will.

But what should Dongfang Lan do? What she just said is also true, as a boyfriend, Yi Xingchen is indeed doing very badly. What's more, Dongfang Lan's mother is in poor health, and she really shouldn't leave Dongfang Lan at this time.

Under the dilemma, Yi Xingchen was also a little undecided, but he didn't want to hide Dongfang Lan: "I can't go back to China for the time being." There are some things here that I have to deal with personally. ”

The meaning of Yi Xingchen's words is already very clear. When Dongfang Lan heard this, the disappointed look on her face became more and more obvious, she was silent again, and after a long time, she smiled reluctantly, looked at Yi Xingchen again, and asked lightly, "Can't you do something for me?"

"I have something I have to do. Yi Xingchen thought for a while and continued: "I have some medicinal wine, you can take it back and give it to your mother to try." ”

Yi Xingchen wanted to give Dongfang Lan a bottle of the best Linggu wine and ask her to take it back to her mother, which should help her mother's condition.

Yi Xingchen knew what Linggu wine was and what effect it could do to a patient, so he would think of asking Dongfang Lan to bring it to her mother to try. But Dongfang Lan didn't understand this hardship. In her opinion, she just felt that Yi Xingchen didn't care about her feelings at all, and even if her mother was seriously ill, he refused to go with her. At the moment, Dongfang Lan felt disheartened in her heart, and the strong feelings in the past seemed to gradually dissipate.

As soon as her heart was cold, Dongfang Lan calmed down a little, she looked at Yi Xingchen fixedly, and there was a dark sadness in her eyes.

After a while, Dongfang Lan said calmly as if answering Yi Xingchen's question: "I'll go back to China tomorrow to see her." ”

Yi Xingchen knew that his words had hurt Dongfang Lan, but he could only make a choice: "Well, help me greet her." Hope she recovers soon. ”

Dinner, in an indescribable atmosphere, proceeded slowly. During the banquet, Yi Xingchen didn't want the atmosphere between the two of them to be too cold after all, and always tried to turn the topic to the dishes, or say something he thought was interesting. I want to make it easy for the two of them. However, Dongfang Lan's interest is no longer high, and there is always a trace of bitterness on her face that cannot be explained.

After dinner, Yi Xingchen wanted to accompany Dongfang Lan to her room, help her pack her luggage, and chat with her. However, Dongfang Lan's attitude has obviously become a lot more indifferent. Although she deduced that she wanted to have a good rest because she had to catch a flight tomorrow, she rejected Yi Xingchen's proposal, but Yi Xingchen knew that she was minding. In addition, perhaps because of the mood swings too much, Dongfang Lan's face did show a tired look, seeing this. Yi Xingchen also dispelled the idea and asked her to be quiet first.

Before parting. Yi Xingchen still told Dongfang Lan to rest well, and gave Dongfang Lan the gem necklace prepared in advance.

When she took the gemstone necklace from Yi Xingchen's hand, Dongfang Lan was slightly stunned, and suddenly wanted to say something, but after all, she only grabbed the necklace tightly. Nothing was said. After taking a deep look at Yi Xingchen, Dongfang Lan turned around and left.

Looking at her back, Yi Xingchen stopped in place, but he didn't know what else to say.

Yi Xingchen didn't know what Dongfang Lan wanted. In fact, I hope he can return to China with her and accompany her more. It's just that he has his own responsibilities that he can't get rid of, and he has what he should do, and it must be impossible to accompany him anytime and anywhere like an ordinary couple, but these are exactly what Dongfang Lan can't accept.

Although, when the two of them just decided to date, Yi Xingchen once said to Dongfang Lan that there were some things he couldn't take care of, but perhaps, Dongfang Lan hadn't imagined today's situation at the beginning, and he himself had no way to appease her and let her accept this, so that Dongfang Lan could only use his back to talk to him.

After all, Yi Xingchen could only sigh. He asked himself, he took this relationship very seriously, but today's dilemma was something that neither of them could face and solve.

Perhaps, they should never have started. Yi Xingchen smiled bitterly, he didn't know what the future would become.

At this time, a soft female voice came from my ear: "Brother Yi, do you want me to clean your room." It was Tong Xin, she didn't know what happened to Yi Xingchen and Dongfang Lan just now, she only thought that Yi Xingchen would stay on the third floor of the comfortable restaurant for the night, so she thought about it dutifully.

Yi Xingchen's thoughts were pulled back by her soft and concerned question, he was calm, smiled at Tong Xin, and responded, "No need." After a pause, he asked again, "What about Tong Rui?"

"She is now studying at the Reunion Business School, and if she has nothing to do, I let her stay in her room. Tong Xin said with a smile.

Yi Xingchen could see that Tong Xin was very proud, so he smiled and said, "Well, it's a good thing to read more books." ”

"Tong Rui has learned, and I want her to be in charge of the comfort restaurant. Then, I went to continental Europe and opened another cosy restaurant. Tong Xin said.

Yi Xingchen had already handed over the management of the comfortable restaurant to Tong Xin, and some of the shares were also given to her, how Tong Xin wanted to run the comfortable restaurant, Yi Xingchen also followed her.

"Well, this restaurant, also has your stake. You are both a shareholder and a manager, and you are responsible for opening a branch. Yi Xingchen saw that Tong Xin was about to speak and stopped, and asked, "Do you have anything else?"

"Brother Yi, I want to learn cooking. After thinking about it, Tong Xin decided to say what was in her heart.

"Want to learn cooking?" Yi Xingchen was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "If you want to learn cooking, this is a good thing! In the future, you will become a chef, and whoever marries you will not be blessed!"

"Brother Yi, don't make fun of me. Tong Xin said a little shyly.

"Okay, okay, don't kid you!" Yi Xingchen said three good words in a row, and said with a smile: "I support you to learn cooking!Is there anything you need my help with?"

"Well, I'd like to learn from Chef Skrein, but if you have a little difficulty, can you help me? Tong Xin said.

"Oh, what's the difficulty?Chef Scrim, he doesn't want to take you as an apprentice?" Yi Xingchen asked curiously. Skrein, the apprentice of Darra, a fifth-level chef in Xinghua Kingdom, is a second-level professional chef.

"Chef Scrim told me that he didn't want to take in an apprentice and turned me down. Tong Xin smiled bitterly.

Yi Xingchen thought about it seriously and asked, "Do you want to be a real chef?" or do you just want to learn how to cook a few delicious dishes?"

Tong Xin replied affirmatively: "I want to be a real chef!"

"Then you don't want to be the manager of the restaurant, can you be busy?" Yi Xingchen asked again.

"I promise not to delay the manager's work!" Tong Xin said seriously, "Moreover, I think it is a very fulfilling and comfortable thing to be able to make delicious dishes that people like." ”

Yi Xingchen thought about it seriously, thought about it, and replied, "I'll talk to Chef Scrim and let him teach you how to cook." As for whether you can become his apprentice, it depends on your talent and whether you can impress him. He's the chef I've hired here, and I can't influence his decision too much!"

"Thank you, Brother Yi, this is enough!" Tong Xin said happily.

Yi Xingchen smiled slightly, not wanting to waste time, so he immediately got up and left his seat and walked into the kitchen alone. Tong Xin didn't dare to follow, standing outside the kitchen, waiting for the result.

When Yi Xingchen entered the kitchen, Skrin was engrossed in making food.

Seeing this, Yi Xingchen stood quietly aside and did not disturb him. Every professional should be respected. As the king, Yi Xingchen should lead by example, respect the professional, and not interrupt the work that the professional is doing at will.

After a while, Skrin sprinkled the plate with toppings and garnished cauliflower to complete a soothing restaurant seafood prawn.

Bang Bang Bang ...... Yi Xingchen applauded lightly and expressed his appreciation.

"Hello distinguished guest, is dinner still to your liking?" Skrin bowed slightly to Yi Xingchen. In the kitchen, there was not only one Skrein, but also two locally recruited assistant cooks, so he couldn't bow down to Yi Xingchen, lest it affect him badly.

"Today's dinner was delicious, thank you, Sklin. Yi Xingchen said.

"Thank you, distinguished guest, for the compliment! I don't work hard, I love it here!" said Scrimne.

"I have something I want to ask you for. Yi Xingchen didn't turn around and said directly, "I hope you can personally teach Tong Xin the skills of a junior chef." ”

"Yes, no problem. Screin agreed.

When Yi Xingchen heard this, he liked Skrein's directness very much, and asked, "You shouldn't have been home for a long time, do you have any requirements?" (To be continued......)
