Chapter Twenty-Eight: Stories and Wine
"I prepared two dishes, the main course was a black pepper steak and the dessert was a crepe. ”
Rhaeggar's voice was still cold, he was very focused on cooking, he pulled out a few oval plates from the cupboard, nodded in satisfaction, rinsed and dried them, and placed the carved radish roses on the side of the plates.
After cutting a few slices of broccoli and setting them up, smelling the aroma of the steak already wafting out, Rhaegar opened another pot, cut some onions, found the spice and black pepper, and prepared to make the sauce.
Lara swallowed as she watched Rhaegar flip the steak and continue to carve a few carrot roses on her plate, stars in her eyes.
Rhaegar was quick and in a few minutes the sauce was ready in a small container, and he served the steak out, and a few main dishes were ready.
"Please take your time. ”
Rhaegar put the plate in front of Tang Wen and the others, Tang Wen took out the knife and fork, looked at Rhaegar with a strange look in his eyes, he didn't expect that he would be able to eat the food made by the white bone spirit one day.
"Master, there is no problem with these dishes, it seems that Rhaegar really wants to be a chef in the manor. Xiaobai took the lead in tasting it and communicated with Tang Wen in his heart.
Tang Wen touched his nose and saw Lala and Ding Ding on the side looking at him with blank eyes, and he said, "Let's try it." ”
Cutting a small piece of beef, Tang Wen tasted it with the sauce, and his eyes lit up.
Tender, soft and fragrant, Tang Wen instantly realized what real food is, and he exclaimed: "Rhaegar, the steak is so delicious, you can sit down and eat with us in a while." ”
Rhaegar pursed his lips, glanced at Tang Wen, and seeing Tang Wen's sincere eyes, he nodded and prepared to make crepes.
Sugar, eggs, butter, milk, after Rega prepared the ingredients, he began to stir, the speed was very fast, but the movements were very beautiful, Tang Wen and the others were dazzled, and after a few minutes, the golden crepe was already exuding fragrance.
At this time, Tang Wen said: "Xiaobai, go to the winery and get a few bottles of red bar, today we have dinner for the first time, sit together to drink and chat." ”
Rhaegar heard the word "red wine", and his smooth movements paused, but he turned his back to Tang Wen, and Tang Wen couldn't see his face.
Xiaobai nodded, she knew her master's thoughts. She was fast, and by the time the crepe was served, she was already back.
Charlie's hearts were attracted by the food, and it wasn't until Xiaobai opened the red wine with a "bang" that Charlie reacted, took out a few goblets from the wine cabinet, and poured red wine for everyone.
"Penglai wine, oh my God, I never thought I would taste it for the third time. Charlie's face was flushed, and he was a little intoxicated before he had even drunk.
Lala looked excited, looked at Tang Wen and said, "Thank you boss for your hospitality, I never thought I could have dinner with the boss." ”
Tintin restrained his demeanor and thanked him, but his eyes became much gentler, and when he entered the manor, he saw the magnificence of this place, and Tintin thought that it was full of rules and hierarchies, but he didn't want to see such a warm scene.
"You're welcome, Rhaegar, you're such a good cook, I'm ready to hire you. Tang Wen smiled and raised his glass.
Rhaegar looked surprised, but his smile was still a little stiff.
He washed his hands and sat down on the side of the long table, opposite Tang Wen, seeing Tang Wen full of praise for the crepes, Rhaegar looked at the red liquid in front of him, and felt as if he had returned to the feeling he had when he had a heartbeat.
Seeing that Rhaegar was seated, Tang Wen said: "Cheers to everyone's gathering today, I hope we will live happily together in the future." ”
"Cheers!"
Charlie raised their glasses one after another, and everyone had different expressions when they drank red wine.
Xiaobai's indifference, Charlie's delight, Lala's intoxication, Tintin's gratitude, Tang Wen's eyes swept over one by one, and finally his eyes fell on Rhaeggar, seeing that Rhaeggar's pale skin turned rosy with the action of swallowing, he was very curious.
"Phew, Rhaeggar, I'm already convinced you're a three-Michelin-starred chef, but did you really come here because you like this estate?"
Lara opened the conversation after drinking the red wine, and looked at Rhaegar with a puzzled look in her eyes.
Although Ding Ding didn't say much, he was also very curious to look over, Rhaegar saw this, a deep depth flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth moved, feeling the power of Penglai wine fermenting in his stomach, and said slowly: "I want to tell my story." ”
"Ha, it's a romantic day with stories and wine today. "Lara looks like a very sensual woman.
Tang Wen's eyelids jumped, and he was a little worried that Charlie and the others would not be able to accept Rhaeggar's story, but he soon found that his worries were a little unnecessary.
Rhaegar moved his fingers, and several white lights flashed, and soon Lala, Charlie, and Tintin became blurry in front of their eyes, and then they fell asleep on the table with "poof, poof".
Rhaegar gasped a few times, his ruddy face turned pale again, and he looked at Tang Wen apologetically and said, "Mr. Tang, please don't mind, they just fell asleep." ”
Tang Wen was relieved to see that the three of them had fallen asleep, and he pointed to Penglai wine and said: "It seems that it is very good for you, tell me your story, there is a lot of wine, and we also have plenty of time to listen." ”
Rhaegar nodded, glanced at Xiao Bai beside Tang Wen, and said with some envy: "What a perfect body Miss Bai has, I don't know if there is a chance to change back to her original appearance in this life." ”
After taking a sip of wine, Rhaeggar's voice came cold and a little distant.
"A long, long time ago, when I was going up the mountain to collect wind, I encountered a torrential rain, I got lost in the mountains, my clothes were soaked after the heavy rain, I had a fever again, and I died inside before I could come out. ”
Rhaegar licked his lips and continued: "Originally, I thought I was really dead, but who knew that my white bones were nourished by the aura of heaven and earth and actually had life, and then I had a mind, watching the sun, moon and starry sky constantly alternate, and finally in the long wait I was able to transform into a human form and leave the mountain." ”
"Although I can transform into a human form, my mana is too weak, and my appearance changes every once in a while, and I am very distressed, how can I live in a crowd with only a white bone body? ”
Tang Wen saw that Rhaegar's eyes were a little intoxicated, and then became even colder, and he said, "She is the woman you like?"
Rhaegar nodded a little sadly, and said: "It has been a matter of the past few years that I can transform into a human, I have been to many places in recent years, and finally met Isha in a Michelin restaurant, she likes food very much, and she is so elegant and beautiful when she eats." ”
"I tried my best to become a Michelin-starred chef for her, and finally won her heart, but on the night of our date, it was a full moon night, and the moonlight was very bright, and when I waited for her by the river, my mana was a little unbearable, and I was forced to turn back into my real body to absorb the aura, which almost scared Isha to death. ”
