Chapter 4: A Pampered Life

He woke up once in the middle of the night and turned off the TV. The lights in the room were a little harsh, and he turned around to find the bedside switch and turned it off as well.

The night of the city is still as dark as before, without starlight. Except for an icy full moon, hanging high in the night sky. Lu Chuan couldn't find anything to enjoy.

Raise your head to look at the bright moon and bow your head to think of your hometown. This Li Bai's poem is really appropriate.

In the past, Lu Chuan hated the New Year's holidays, but now he suddenly felt scared. He was bored when he had relatives, and now he has no relatives around, and every reunion festival is a kind of torment for him.

Sleep, damn it.

Lu Chuan fell into the quilt upside down, and finally fell asleep when it was close to three o'clock in the morning.

In the early morning, when the sunlight fell into the room, Lu Chuan woke up from his sleep without emotion. In the early hours of last night, the investment of 20,000 yuan arrived. Today he plans to go to a place and turn some memory things into thoughts.

"Good morning, Shirley. Are you free today?" Lu Chuan used the toothbrush in the hotel while sending a WeChat message to the female secretary Shirley.

After about ten minutes, "Good morning, Mr. Lu, I happen to be free all day today, do you have anything you need to order?"

"Do you know the Portrait Gallery? I want the artist to paint three pictures for me. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll help you ask. ”

"Thanks, sorry for your trouble. ”

"You're welcome, you're welcome, as it should be!"

Shirley hurriedly quit WeChat, and then called a friend in the city to ask. Since the boss is not on a business trip, Lu Chuan's affairs are the top priority for her. As long as she can help a little, she will do her best.

Lu Chuan is not the kind of character who has no one in his eyes and is a villain. Although he has this anti-heaven game, he still treats people with courtesy in his bones.

Shirley asked for a full 20 minutes before she asked about a private art gallery called Ai Mu Portrait Gallery.

Lu Chuan received a message from Shirley that this portrait gallery has been open for about 25 years. The owner is a spirited old man who goes to do Tai Chi every morning and opens the shop at noon.

The reason why Shirley asks people, rather than gathering information online, is mainly to make things perfect. It is precisely because of her way of doing things that she will be appreciated by the boss.

"Then I'll have lunch. Lu Chuan didn't mean to want Shirley to accompany him.

"Mr. Lu, do you need me to drive to pick you up?"

"No, thank you. Lu Chuan politely refused.

He put down his phone and opened the menu. Today's breakfast is a classic Chinese and Western set menu.

Exquisite barbecued pork buns, siu mai and shrimp dumplings, topped with a bowl of carefully boiled corn and crab porridge sprinkled with chives and coriander, plus a serving of smoked salmon with tender flesh and some sweet shrimp sashimi. Those pictures on the menu alone are absolutely mouth-watering.

Fifteen minutes later, the doorbell of the luxury suite was rang by the waiter.

"Ding Dong!"

"Mr. Lu, your breakfast has arrived. ”

Lu Chuan got up and opened the door, and a waitress with a white face and a delicate appearance pushed the dining cart into the room.

Lu Chuan returned to the room with his right hand on his chin, looked at the waitress in a bad mood, and served breakfast.

The barbecued pork bun is quite delicately made, although it is smaller than the outside, but judging from its plump appearance, it feels like the honey inside will flow down instantly as long as you tear it lightly.

"Mr. Lu, this is a Hong Kong-style barbecued pork bun, please eat it while it is hot. ”

"Hmm. Lu Chuan held his chin and hummed casually.

The second dish is the "Crystal Shrimp Dumpling Emperor". When the steamer is gently opened by the waitress, white water vapor fills the shrimp dumplings. The crystal shrimp dumplings with a moist surface are crystal clear and beautiful. A small plate of special balsamic vinegar was placed next to it, as long as Lu Chuan picked up the chopsticks, dipped the shrimp dumplings in vinegar and ate them, the sour and moist taste and texture would instantly fill his mouth.

"Mr. Lu, this dish is the specialty of our hotel, the crystal shrimp dumpling emperor, please eat it while it is hot. ”

"Well, put it here. Lu Chuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the left side of the coffee table, and the waitress respectfully served the steamer.

The third dish is "corn and crab porridge", the delicately boiled milky white porridge is sprinkled with sporadic chives and coriander, and a trace of crab meat visible to the naked eye is perfectly presented in front of Lu Chuan as the waitress slowly moves with a spoon.

The fourth dish is "crab roe siu mai", and the fifth dish is "smoked salmon + sweet shrimp sashimi".

The life of a local tyrant should be such pampered, including the high-quality service of the waitress, and having breakfast is enjoyable.

The dishes were all ready, and the waitress turned around and pushed the dining cart away. Lu Chuan picked up the chopsticks, then picked up the "crystal shrimp dumpling" in the steamer, dipped it in the special balsamic vinegar in a small plate, and finally stuffed the whole bite into his mouth.

He tasted lightly while eating, the soft and fragrant skin of the crystal shrimp dumplings, and the acidity that aroused appetite with balsamic vinegar. Lu Chuan bit the crystal skin hard, and the prawn meat inside was very chewy, and the shrimp meat had a slight sweetness, which was perfectly blended with the slight acidity of balsamic vinegar. The sweet and sour taste is very appetizing, the shrimp meat is full, just looking at Lu Chuan's bulging mouth, you can know how full this crystal shrimp dumpling is.

He picked up the fat white barbecued pork bun with his chopsticks. The texture of the barbecued pork bun is softer than that sold outside, and the chopsticks are caught on its surface, and it feels like it will break with a little force.

Gently bite through the skin of the barbecued pork bun, and the pale red honey inside slowly flows out of the crack. After Lu Chuan simply blew twice, he opened his mouth and took a big bite of barbecued pork.

The slightly sweet honey sauce in the mouth, wrapped in soft barbecued pork, and the fragrant and glutinous taste of the buns, blend just right in the mouth. It won't feel sweet to greasy, and it won't feel bland and tasteless.

Lu Chuan brought the corn and crab porridge to him, then slowly scooped out a bite with a porcelain spoon, and then slowly put it into his mouth. The smooth and delicate white porridge, the light umami crab meat, and the crispy texture of the corn kernels stir in the mouth.

He picks up a slice of smoked salmon with his chopsticks. Orange-yellow fish with a smooth and elastic surface. The entrance is a little cool, but the salty taste and smooth texture, combined with the corn and crab porridge in the mouth just now, make the original light taste instantly add a touch of umami.

……

Because of the hearty breakfast, Lu Chuan didn't feel hungry until noon. He pulled out his room card and left the room, ready to go to the portrait gallery that Shirley had introduced him.

When he closed the door, he walked through the ornate and stylish hallway. I saw a door near the elevator opened by a young man and a woman. The man is wearing a famous brand, he doesn't look handsome, and his temperament is acceptable. The female Internet celebrity temperament, wearing contact lenses on the pointed chin, the face is painted white, and she is carrying a brand-name bag.

However, just as he was passing by the two, suddenly.
