Chapter 21

At the same time as the kitchen door opened, Shang Huaiyan just took out his third cigarette.

There was a sound of the door opening behind him, and he subconsciously turned his head, and in the interval of smoke, he met Yi Baitang's eyes.

Yi Baitang: "......"

Shang Huaiyan: "......"

Yi Baitang's condemning gaze fell on the smoke in front of him and Shang Huaiyan.

Shang Huaiyan hurriedly put down the hand holding the cigarette, raised the corners of his lips, and preemptively attacked: "It's too boring to stay alone, you don't care about me when you cook by yourself." Then he didn't wait for Yi Baitang to answer, just right to change the topic, "How is your cooking?" ”

He observed Yi Baitang's demeanor: "Is there a result?" ”

Yi Baitang originally walked out with a smile in his eyes, but as soon as he went out, he was smoked by the smoke, and the joy in his eyes turned into accusations, and before the accusation fell on Shang Huaiyan, he heard Shang Huaiyan's words again, and suddenly the accusation was mixed with caution and guilt.

Anyway, it was Huai Yan who helped me solve the problem of "feeling in love", I just locked Sun Ling out, it seems that Huai Yan should not be locked out together......

He seriously reflected on his actions, swallowed back what he had meant to say, turned sideways, moved out of the way of the kitchen door, and said:

"The dish is ready, you can come in and try it."

Shang Huaiyan nodded solemnly, put the hand holding the cigarette behind his back, and secretly snuffed out the fire of the cigarette butt with two fingers: just smoke a cigarette in the restaurant, if you really bring the cigarette butt into the kitchen...... It was such a beautiful picture that he couldn't imagine it!

After following Yi Baitang into the kitchen and seeing the dishes placed on the table, Shang Huaiyan was a little surprised, but before he could speak, Sun Ling, who followed in, spoke first:

"Is it a cream chicken crisp box?"

Sun Ling was very surprised, he thought that Yi Baitang would make a different dessert.

After all, to express the kind of feeling he wants...... Or a variety of desserts can be interpreted.

He was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to put the disappointment on his face, he only reached out and took a chicken crisp box, stuffed it into his mouth and took a bite......

But this second has just passed, and the next second has come slowly, the milky puff pastry, the sweet corn, and the wisps of wine and saltiness overflowing from the chicken have hit his taste buds and mind together.

Long silence.

It seems that all of a sudden, the atmosphere in the kitchen is different.

Shang Huaiyan, who was about to eat, also stopped his movements and turned to look at Sun Ling.

Sun Ling's whole person was stunned for a moment as if he had pressed the pause button, and after a moment, when the pause ended, he suddenly came back to his senses, no one cared about it, and hurriedly chewed and decomposed the food in his mouth with his teeth!

Odd!

Odd!

It's just weird! It was not what he had imagined, it was not a layering of sweetness, bitterness, and then the smell of wine; Instead, the sweet and salty flavors are mixed, and the salty taste can be chewed out, but this little bit of wine flavor does not cover up the initial sweetness and saltiness, and can only be mixed together to give people a ...... It gives a complex and relieved feeling.

"This ......" Sun Ling couldn't believe it, his body trembled unconsciously because of excitement, "So this is what I want to feel...... ”

Yi Baitang was satisfied.

In fact, no matter what Sun Ling reacted to, he would not change the dish he made.

Because...... It's been a long time since he's wanted to eat something he made*.

This is the first time in the last two months.

Yi Baitang then stopped his gaze on Shang Huaiyan.

He watched Shang Huaiyan pick up the food, put it in his mouth and taste it carefully, although his face was still silent, but his attention was quietly focused.

Sun Ling's opinion doesn't matter, but Huai Yan's opinion can't be ignored.

Huai Yan hasn't tasted what he made for a long time, and he hasn't built him well for a long time!

He's still looking forward to it (β˜†β˜†)

Under Yi Baitang's gaze, Shang Huaiyan slowly finished eating, then stretched out his tongue and licked his fingers with a little crumbs calmly.

He didn't have as many complicated feelings as Sun Ling.

All he knew was that he had tasted love from this food.

Pity...... It's just like Fang Cai, all of them are just for cooking.

A weekend passed, and at dinner time on the first night of the new week, a sign was hung outside the glass door of a restaurant that read "Today is full, please do not come".

The rest of the shops in the surrounding area are also used to the style of a restaurant.

Anyway, it's clear that the store is open, but I hin is willful, I hin don't want to make money, the boss who doesn't want to make money, except for the one in a restaurant, there is no one.

Their old gods are picking up their guests on the ground, doing their own business, and occasionally when they have free time, they give a look or two to a restaurant, and study what a restaurant wants to do tonight.

There is a restaurant that doesn't make people wait too long.

At half past six in the evening, a young woman carrying a large bag came to the door of the small hotel and tried to push open the transparent glass door with her shoulder.

But before he could exert himself, the people guarding inside hurriedly opened the glass door and welcomed the woman outside.

It was Sun Ling who was standing at the door.

After half a month, on this night, Sun Ling was finally able to prepare what he wanted to eat for the woman in front of him.

He placed the woman in the center of the bar, turned and walked into the kitchen, picking up the box of creamy chicken puff pastries he had just prepared.

There are two crisp boxes placed on the long white porcelain vessels, the first is made by Yi Baitang, and the second is made by Sun Ling.

Sun Ling took a deep breath, picked up the plate and went outside, and put the first course on the table.

He smiled and spoke to his memories of his youth: "Xiao Pan, I will invite you to eat French food tonight, you can try this appetizer first, the cream chicken crisp box." ”

Gu Pan, who was looking around at the small restaurant, turned around and smiled at Sun Ling.

From the time she came in until now, until this time, her face was completely exposed to the light.

Her pale face made people feel that she had just recovered from a serious illness, and her tired eyebrows and eyes were always entwined, which made her a little dull.

But the sincere smile slightly concealed these flaws, and she picked up a chicken crisp box and put it in her mouth: "Long time no see, I really didn't expect to leave in the end, and I can meet you again......"

"When you come back from your trip, we will be able to see each other a lot." Sun Ling persuaded.

Gu Pan shook his head: "I'm not coming back." ”

Sun Ling was stunned.

Gu Pan explained with a smile: "Go abroad, or go to other cities, and then stay." Anyway won't be coming back here again...... But don't talk about that, let's eat first. ”

She only ate the thing in her mouth at this time, and the moment she tasted it, Gu Pan was stunned for a moment, and her amazement almost broke through the exhaustion on her face:

"It's delicious!"

"Hey, hey." Sun Ling came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Don't look at this restaurant, in fact, the boss is very powerful, and ordinary people can't eat the good things he makes; I still begged and begged, and gave all my savings before I told the boss to reluctantly accept me. ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and when he saw Gu Pan taking a small bite and tasting the things in his hand with some caution, he couldn't help but take out his DV machine and said to Gu Pan:

"Xiao Pan, you're going to leave on a plane tonight, I'll take a video for you as a souvenir."

"Okay." Gu Pan smiled at Sun Ling, who turned on the DV.

It's strange to say that she came over this time just because she couldn't bear to refuse her good friends from the past, and she didn't really expect much from this meal. But when she actually sat in this small restaurant and tasted something she had never eaten before, she suddenly felt that the tiredness that had been haunting her seemed to fade a little, and she began to look forward to eating more and better things......

She took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the half-eaten chicken crisp box in her hand, and then took a picture of the chicken crisp box that was still intact on the dinner table.

Then, she finished the first chicken crisp box in her hand three or two times, and picked up the other one that was left on the plate.

Sun Ling, who was holding the camera, suddenly became nervous at this time, and his throat choked like a cold and fever.

He knew that what Yi Baitang made must be very, very delicious, but he wanted to know more about what kind of feeling Gu Pan felt when he ate the food he made, and he wanted to know if the other party could understand his meaning and thoughts......

He stared at Gu Pan firmly, watched her taste it seriously, watched her eat and ate, and suddenly froze, and then saw her raise her hand to cover her mouth, and her misty eyes were filled with tears, and tears slid down her cheeks.

Sun Ling was stunned.

After a long time, it seemed that the dust had finally settled, and a long sigh sounded in Sun Ling's heart.

He didn't know why, but he remembered the events of high school again.

He and Gu Pan have not been dating for a long time, only four or five months. But during those four or five months, each day was full and meaningful.

They study together, exercise together, host school programs together, and manage class affairs together.

At that time, he felt that such days would continue until they went to college, worked, got married, and finally had children and grew old together.

But then one day, they quarreled over filling in the volunteers.

Later, they broke up, he went to the university he wanted to go to, and looked forward to following his parents' arrangement to marry someone else after graduation.

When he was in college, he didn't often think about Gu Pan, his initial love was the same as his life in high school, what had already turned the page, and it would only happen in a very boring dream.

Until he heard about Gu Pan's current situation.

He had no other thoughts, no other meanings.

He only hopes that the other party can get better and better.

In the small restaurant, the new female guests were eating and suddenly crying bitterly.

The cook, who was standing in the kitchen, crossed his arms, was silent for a long time, then closed the kitchen door and turned to leave.

Yi Baitang came to Shang Huaiyan's side in silence.

He sat down next to Shang Huaiyan, and looked at the steamer that was still timed, and the steamer was baked with the next dish to be served.

The silence at this moment made Shang Huaiyan a little panicked.

Shang Huaiyan also saw the situation outside just now, and he always felt that Yi Baitang had been hurt and was in urgent need of appeasement. He especially wanted to take the other party into his arms, caress his head, kiss his mouth, and it was best to roll on the bed again to complete the great harmony of life.

But these thoughts ...... For now, I can only think about it in my head.

Shang Huaiyan was very melancholy, and finally chose the dry comfort on his mouth: "Sun Ling's meaning to the external guest is different, for this female guest, Sun Ling's cooking is different from what all other chefs do, so she can eat it and feel it; It's like if you cook for me with someone else, I can eat the one you made at onceβ€”"

"Is there really emotion in the dish?" Yi Baitang muttered to himself.

The first defeat made him angry.

The second defeat baffled him.

Can something as unquantifiable as emotion really be added to a dish? But if it can't be added to the dish, why can the female guest outside eat the same recipe, the difference between what he made and what Sun Ling made?

The most important thing is that the food made with the same recipe should be better and more perfect for him, why is the other party only moved by Sun Ling's not so delicious and not so perfect!

Yi Baitang thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a reason.

Then he suddenly turned his head at Shang Huaiyan:

"What did you just say?"

"What?"

"You just said," Yi Baitang stared at Shang Huaiyan, "You can eat the food I cooked." ”

"Of course?"

"What do you eat from?" Yi Baitang continued to ask, his eyebrows were once again stained with doubts, "Feelings?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well! "Well, it's a matter of success or failure. Shang Huaiyan replied decisively, and continued to ponder, secretly rubbing and preparing to say a full answer, maybe after this answer, he will be able to hold the beauty?

"Could it beβ€”" Yi Baitang guessed again, "is our friendship getting deeper and deeper?" ”

He unconsciously pinched the flower of love that had just blossomed on the fertile soil of friendship.

"......" Shang Huaiyan.

Are you teasing me?

"That's right," Yi Baitang remembered again, "Thank you before, I felt the taste of love, and I also made dishes that felt that way." ”

"............" Shang Huaiyan.

There was a bad premonition.

"So we can end the relationship and try." Yi Baitang was satisfied with calmness, crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and rarely gave Shang Huaiyan a tiny smile.

".................." Shang Huaiyan.

I was speechless and choked.
