The mistake of the two was just a blink, but the field affairs were dutiful, and they came forward as soon as they saw Shang Huaiyan, and said to Shang Huaiyan: "Where are you from?" It's a game here, and outsiders can't come in. ”

Shang Huaiyan calmly shook his Chef King Contest judge certificate in front of the field affairs, easily bypassed the gatekeeper monster, passed through the crowd, came to Yi Baitang's side, and quickly saw the current situation clearly.

A huge glass basin was placed on the table in front of Yi Baitang, and in the glass basin was a large amount of salad, Shang Huaiyan looked at it, there were vegetables and fruits, which were immersed in a layer of light red liquid, sniffed carefully, as if there was a little taste of red wine.

Is this taste Lafite or Pak Cui......

He sniffled and suddenly said, "Who spilled the perfume?" This scent is pretty good! ”

Yi Baitang sneered: "Who dares to sprinkle perfume in my kitchen?" Well? ”

It's this feeling of cuteness and domineering in one!

Shang Huaiyan couldn't love it well, his heart was itching, he did what he liked, and humbly asked for advice: "What is this taste?" ”

Yi Baitang looked indifferent and didn't speak, because someone would help him speak.

Sure enough, not long after Shang Huaiyan's voice fell, a dreamy answer came from the side: "Didn't you smell it...... The flavor comes from the vegetable salad in front of you...... Ahhhh......h

The last few strange sounds are the sounds made by the man inhaling deeply, exhaling deeply, and inhaling deeply.

Shang Huaiyan followed the sound and saw that the one who answered him was an old man, and he had the nameplate of the chief judge on his chest, and now he was standing in front of the glass basin, sniffing all the way, and he couldn't care about the full audience of contestants and other judges.

What kind of rhythm is this......

Shang Huaiyan looked left and right again, and found that although the chief judge made a move that was very inconsistent with his identity, the surrounding participating chefs and the rest of the judges did not stop it, and even did not express their dissatisfaction, on the contrary, although their state was not as good as that of the chief judge, but the overall behavior was not much different, they all filled a small bowl of salad from the glass basin, each found a place, first sniffed with his nose, and then tasted with his mouth.

When the salad is finished, they suddenly become a little different.

Shang Huaiyan didn't know what to use to describe the scene in front of him.

Although his essays have been model essays in his class since he was a child, he is still a little short of words...... In short, why is it that when a dish is eaten, people suddenly and inexplicably shine, as if there are tiny points of light born out of thin air, floating slowly around them......

You see, even the eyes have become bright and determined!

"What's going on?" Shang Huaiyan couldn't help asking.

"I don't know, but when I cook, I just follow my feelings." Yi Baitang pondered for a moment and replied.

"What did you add to the dish to make them feel different after eating?" Shang Huaiyan asked cautiously.

As if in response to his words, someone in the field suddenly pressed his chest and mused:

"I feel like I'm in a calm mood."

"And firmly."

"I'm starting to yearn for the sun tomorrow."

"I suddenly felt," another person suddenly realized, as if he had discovered the true meaning of life, "I should be a grass, or a tree, I planted in the soil, yearning for sunshine and rain, no need to think, no need to move......"

This state seems to be a little familiar, how do you look like Yi Baitang's reaction after the old man gave Yi Baitang a fish yesterday...... Shang Huaiyan thought.

"Alright, let's go." Yi Baitang said decisively to Shang Huaiyan, and when everyone was not quite right, he took Shang Huaiyan's hand out of the gymnasium in one go.

A night breeze blows.

The two walked quickly through the open space in front of the gymnasium and came to the parking area, before Shang Huaiyan could take out the car key to open the door, Yi Baitang had already opened the door of the passenger seat and sat in.

I forgot to lock the car door just now!

Shang Huaiyan patted his forehead lightly and sat in the driver's seat.

He said, "Now let's go to the meal?" ”

Yi Baitang: "Hmm. ”

In the past 20 years, Diet has developed into a large-scale national chain restaurant group, which is quite famous in the catering industry, and the capital naturally has restaurants in Diet.

As early as last night, Yi Baitang got his mother's phone number from Shang Huaiyan and sent a text message to the number.

The text message is simple, with only one sentence written:

Tomorrow night we will meet at dinner in the capital.

All night plus whole day, there was no reaction from the other party.

Now, Yi Baitang sat in the passenger seat and sent a message to this number again, with the same neat sentence:

Half an hour later, I arrived at the meal.

In the dimly lit carriage, Yi Baitang finished sending a text message, put away his mobile phone, and waited for the focus of the journey.

Shang Huaiyan, who was driving, inadvertently glanced to the side, and saw that Yi Baitang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had his entire back completely leaning on the back of the seat, his legs together, and his hands naturally hanging down on both sides of his body, maintaining a strict and relaxed posture.

There seems to be some sparkle after a dish has been made.

It turned out that not only the chefs who ate Yi Baitang's dishes were shiny, but even Yi Baitang, who made the dishes, was quite shiny.

This is the best state of Baitang.

He wanted to see his mother.

Shang Huaiyan thought.

Probably no matter who it is, when they are in Yi Baitang's position, they will have the same reaction as Yi Baitang.

Curious about the past, wanting to see his mother, wanting to know and understanding a qiē, and chasing it in many ways...... Until finally one day, a piece of whitewash and decoration were torn off.

As a result, all that remains is a truth that is not at all pleasant.

Shang Huaiyan held the steering wheel with one hand, looked ahead, and reached over with the other hand and touched Yi Baitang's head.

Yi Baitang lazily fluttered back and forth with Shang Huaiyan's hand before asking, "What?" ”

Shang Huaiyan replied easily: "Not much." But he added, "Whatever you know later......

Yi Baitang: "What do you want to say?" ”

Shang Huaiyan smiled: "Talk to me when you go home, okay?" ”

Yi Baitang: "Okay." ”

After saying that, the car made a beautiful turn, and they had come to the front of the meal.

After the car stopped, Shang Huaiyan got out of the car first, went around half a circle, and opened the car door for Yi Baitang: "Please." ”

Yi Baitang glanced at Shang Huaiyan strangely: "You are really attentive today." ”

Shang Huaiyan smiled, then hugged Yi Baitang next to the car and kissed the corner of the other party's lips.

It was the time to eat, and the flow of people before the meal was quickly taken into view, but when they tried to see through the night and the neon lights, Shang Huaiyan was just right to separate from Yi Baitang.

"Call me when I'm ready to go back," he said. ”

Yi Baitang put his hands in his pockets, and he didn't particularly care about Shang Huaiyan's intimacy in front of the public, anyway, he had already passed the Ming Road, and the old man didn't object: "Okay." ”

Shang Huaiyan confirmed again: "Don't you need me to wait with you?" ”

Yi Baitang clearly refused: "No need." Then he noticed the loss of the little sapling, and reluctantly added, "Don't worry, I'll call you when I go back." ”

Then, he turned and walked into the restaurant, picked a free seat at random, just a glass of water, and began to wait for his relatives who had not yet appeared.

But this time the wait seems a bit long.

The guest next to him changed his stubble, and the waiter went back and forth silently.

Yi Baitang went from being apprehensive at the beginning to calming down, and finally felt the passage of time.

He looked up and saw that the minute hand of the clock on the wall had turned half a circle, and there were no text messages or calls coming from his phone.

After Shang Huaiyan sent Yi Baitang to the meal, he didn't go home immediately.

He drove around slowly, and after the evening breeze had blown enough, he parked in front of a decent bar near the restaurant, walked into the bar, and said to the bartender behind the bar, "Have a cup of Long Island Iced Tea." ”

The bartender made a glass for Shang Huaiyan.

As soon as the drink that looked like juice slid down the bar in front of Shang Huaiyan, another voice sounded next to it, and the new customer came to sit down and asked the bartender, "What kind of wine is more special here?" ”

The bartender lifted his chin: "The one at the table next to you." ”

Come: "And the cup on his table—huh?" How are you? ”

Shang Huaiyan also turned his head, he was also stunned, and it was Yuan Hui who came to his side!

The two subconsciously looked at each other's side for a while, and Shang Huaiyan spoke first: "Why are you here?" ”

Yuan Hui also wondered: "I came here to relax after participating in the King of Chef Competition, isn't Yi Baitang with you?" ”

Shang Huaiyan understated: "He has something to do today." While speaking, he was also secretly a little strange, Yi Baitang decided to see Dong En because Yuan Hui had broken the past, as the middleman of the meeting between the righteous son and the mother and son, didn't Dong En tell the righteous son about this meeting? …… It's a possibility.

Thinking like this, Shang Huaiyan still felt a little strange secretly, so he simply chatted with Yuan Hui about whether he had a match or not: "How is today's game?" ”

Yuan Hui cut off: "If it weren't for a certain fat man, Lao Tzu would be invincible, wouldn't he just make a plate of fragrant green vegetables?" Simple! He didn't forget to inquire about the enemy's intelligence, "How is Yi Baitang doing?" ”

Shang Huaiyan helped Yi Baitang be modest: "It's not bad." ”

Yuan Hui: "Not bad?" ”

Shang Huaiyan: "Very good. ”

Yuan Hui: "Very good? ”

Shang Huaiyan was indifferent: "Invincible." ”

Yuan Hui: Shameless!

Yuan Hui changed the subject in a heartfelt manner: "I haven't been here to drink much, how does this glass of wine taste like you drink?" ”

Shang Huaiyan took a sip, pinched the wall of the cup with two fingers, and shook it gently, the ice cubes and the wall of the cup collided with each other, making a clanging sound: "Hmm...... How much do you drink? ”

Yuan Hui suddenly became cautious: "It's not too good." ”

At this time, the Long Island iced tea that the bartender had mixed for Yuan Hui was also brought up, and Shang Huaiyan raised his hand to make a gesture of clinking glasses: "Congratulations, this glass of wine is also known as ** wine." ”

Yuan Hui: "......"

Yuan Hui reacted: "Wait, do you still have a good taste of wine?" ”

Shang Huaiyan smiled: "I'm not easy to get drunk." There's no one at the table to drink with me. ”

Yuan Hui still felt strange: "A man said ** wine ......"

Shang Huaiyan smiled but did not speak.

The wine was all served, but Yuan Hui still took a sip of it. As soon as he took a bite, he was in a trance: "Oh...... It's really a pretty rush......"

Shang Huaiyan asked casually: "When did Auntie come to the capital?" Why didn't you mention it? Baitang can actually go to pick up the airport. "It's weird.

Yuan Hui: "Which aunt?" ”

Shang Huaiyan: "Aunt Dong." ”

Yuan Hui wondered: "Is my mother here?" ”

Shang Huaiyan: "Aunt Dong didn't come?" ”

Yuan Hui was confused: "No...... I only called before the game, and she's still in her hometown......"

Shang Huaiyan: "Before today's game? ”

Yuan Hui affirmed: "Before today's game. ”

Shang Huaiyan suddenly stood up from his seat.

Yuan Hui also had a premonition in his heart, he stood up and asked, "What's wrong......

Shang Huaiyan glanced at Yuan Hui coldly, got into the car past the other party, and drove in the direction of Food.

It was half an hour's journey and only 10 minutes on the way back.

When Shang Huaiyan arrived at the meal, exactly an hour and a half had passed.

At a glance, he saw the man sitting alone by the window.

Yi Baitang, who was opening the cowhide book and writing the book with a borrowed pen, suddenly felt that someone was sitting opposite him.

He didn't immediately raise his eyes, but the man sitting across from him reached out and drew the pen in his hand.

As soon as Yi Baitang's hand was released, the pen was taken away, and then a black fountain pen was stuffed into his hand, replacing the pen just now.

Yi Baitang finished writing the last two words with a pen before closing the book and raising his face: "Are you hungry?" ”

Shang Huaiyan was stunned for a moment, looked at his watch, and it was seven o'clock in the evening. He didn't eat dinner, and drank a glass of spirits, as if his stomach, which had not ached for a long time, began to ache faintly again: "I am indeed a little hungry." ”

Yi Baitang nodded: "Go back to eat, I'll do it for you." He suddenly asked, "Is the pen mine?" ”

Shang Huaiyan called it a smooth mouth: "My people are all yours, let alone a fountain pen?" ”

Yi Baitang was immediately satisfied. He stood up, took the initiative to take Shang Huaiyan's hand, and walked outside.

The night is gentle, and the stars are sparse.

When the two of them walked out, the flow of people was much less than when they came, they slowly walked to the direction of parking together, and passed by one couple after another on the way, each couple seemed to have a small smile and secret happiness on their faces, and even the mood with Shang Huaiyan slowly improved.

Until he saw a woman in her forties, dressed in a professional suit, hurrying to the restaurant as soon as she got out of the taxi, but stopped halfway to look in his direction.

Shang Huaiyan subconsciously turned his head to look at Yi Baitang.

Yi Baitang also saw this woman.

Looking at each other, both parties confirmed the identity of the other.

Yi Baitang, who was about to leave, stopped in place, and the woman who rushed to the meal also stopped in place.

Yi Baitang waited for the latecomer to come forward.

He had envisioned a few meetings, but none of them were like this.

But now, although it is a little unexpected, there is nothing unacceptable.

Yi Baitang thought.

The tension that disappeared before has a tendency to resurge, Yi Baitang didn't say a word, his shoulders and back were secretly tense, waiting for the next second of recognition.

The next second.

Next two seconds.

A full minute.

Yi Baitang stood for a while, only to see the lady who came standing in place hesitating, full of anxiety, but she refused to really take the easiest step.

The tension finally disappeared.

Great disappointment gripped his mind.

He retracted his gaze, turned his face indifferently, took Shang Huaiyan's hand, and continued to walk in the direction of the park.
