When Fu Lingyuan saw what was in front of him, his eyebrows couldn't help but raise slightly.

It's a plate of chicken.

A very intact chicken without cutting.

Not particularly big.

Steamed, the skin is clean and tender, and it is still steaming.

The head of the chicken is right in his direction.

Fu Lingyuan: "......"

Li Qing helped stop the waiter: "Sent to the wrong table, we didn't order this dish." ”

"There was no mistake." The waiter bowed politely, "The restaurant is doing an event today, and this is given to customers for free." ”

Fu Lingyuan's dark eyes narrowed, and he looked around, but he didn't see any chickens being sent to other people's tables.

Turning his gaze back, he stared at the chicken in front of him, and then moved the plate to Xiaoya: "It looks good, you eat more." ”

Xiaoya was a little shy: "I'm afraid that if I eat too much meat, I will gain weight." ”

Master Situ flattered from the side: "How can Miss Xiaoya be fat?" You look distinctly thin. ”

"Did you hear that?" Fu Lingyuan hooked his lips, "The woman who followed me, she didn't have anything to eat and drink, she was not fat but thin, and people who didn't know thought I was abusing you in private." ”

"How so?" Xiaoya immediately defended Fu Lingyuan, "You are the best for me." ”

Hall Master Situ couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "If it weren't for the fact that my yellow-faced mother-in-law is not as good as Miss Xiaoya, I would definitely bring her out to accompany me today, and now I don't have to show affection to Hall Master Fu and Miss Xiaoya alone." ”

"So it's a show of affection?" Fu Lingyuan said, picked up the plastic gloves and put them on, grabbed a whole chicken and tore it in half, then put down half of it for the time being, tore the other half into small pieces, and after helping to dip the sauce, put it into Xiaoya's bowl, "Taste it." ”

Xiao Ya was quite flattered and raised her eyes to look at Fu Lingyuan.

Fu Lingyuan raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?" ”

"No ......" Xiaoya shook her head vigorously, her eyes were watery, her expression looked like she was about to be moved to tears, she hurriedly grabbed chopsticks, picked up the chicken that Fu Lingyuan had torn for her, and praised her after taking a bite, "It tastes good, it's as delicious as it looks." ”

"Eat more if you like." Fu Lingyuan's deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately moved the remaining half of the chicken to the Situ Hall Master: "The Situ Hall Master will also have some." She can't eat that much alone, don't waste it. ”

Master Situ was polite: "Master Fu just eats." ”

Fu Lingyuan raised his thin lips: "As long as I look at Xiaoya, I feel full." ”

It sounds like a love story.

Xiaoya's face blushed even more.

Hall Master Situ laughed heartily: "Hall Master Fu is powerful, no wonder there are always beautiful women around him." ”

Fu Lingyuan smiled silently.

The master of Situ Hall did not shirk him anymore and took the half plate of chickens.

Xiaoya took the initiative to give a piece of chicken in her bowl to Fu Lingyuan at this time.

Fu Lingyuan smiled, but took off his gloves and made a reason to leave the table temporarily: "You eat first, I'll go to the bathroom." ”

"Okay." Xiaoya nodded gently.

Zhao Shisan stayed as usual.

Li Qing followed Fu Lingyuan and went out.

Xiao Ya turned her face back, and suddenly stretched out her arm to reach the vinegar resting in the corner.

The sleeves of her dress shrank as a result, revealing a large section of her forearm.

With a casual glance, Hall Master Situ caught a glimpse of some bruises and pinching marks on her forearms, and was slightly startled.

After Xiao Ya finished taking the vinegar, she found that the eyes of the Situ Hall Master fell, and she withdrew her hand quite embarrassedly, and pulled her sleeves, and said in a glutinous voice: "The Lord of the Situ Hall smiled when he saw it." ”

Seeing the shy expression on her face, Hall Master Situ immediately thought of the rumors about Fu Lingyuan, and smiled understandingly: "Hall Master Fu is still so interesting. ”

Xiaoya became more and more embarrassed and hung her head to eat.

Zhao Shisan, who was standing behind her, saw her red ears and said that he was inexplicable.

…………

After leaving the restaurant, Fu Lingyuan turned his head and asked, "Do you know your sister Ruan's itinerary today?" ”

Li Qing apologized: "I don't know. Today, Jiusi and Rongyi have not been in contact. ”

And the dealer has always been difficult to start directly.

Fu Lingyuan was silent, after all, he felt that the plate of chicken was sent strangely.

Glancing in the direction of the restaurant, his eyes were slightly cold.

After a while, when he returned to the dining room, he found that there were a few more dishes on the table.

Spicy chicken, stewed old hen, chicken stewed mushrooms, like a whole chicken feast.

Fu Lingyuan was stunned: "You guys are new?" ”

Master Situ explained happily: "No, it was the waiter who said that all consumers can participate in a free lottery today, and Miss Xiaoya was lucky enough to win the first prize." ”

Xiao Ya was shaking off from her daze, and smiled a little reluctantly: "Well, yes, I drew it by lottery." ”

Looking at the whole chicken feast, Fu Lingyuan's eyes narrowed very lightly, and then he smiled: "Can you finish eating?" So much? ”

The waiter on the side accosted: "It's okay if you can't finish eating, we can help you pack it." All the chickens in our restaurant are specially raised by the owners of the chicken farms. The best feed is given from the moment the eggs are broken, and each chicken is labelled and numbered to keep a daily record of their growth and ensure their health and quality. It's just about teaching each chicken eighteen kinds of martial arts. ”

"Depending on the needs of the dishes, they will also be transported to the restaurant at different times. Sometimes it's a chick, sometimes it's a whooping chicken, sometimes it's an adult chicken, sometimes it's an old hen. Recently, the demand for chicks has been even greater, and our kitchen chefs are very good at keeping the chicks in their original and clean meat. Customers who have tasted it have found it wonderful and are full of praise. ”

"Of course, chicks are luckiest to meet someone who loves chickens, so they can make up for the regret of not being an old hen. Regardless of whether they die early or late, being sent to the table to satisfy the appetite of human beings is the meaning of the existence of chickens. It has realized its own value, and it has also fulfilled its historical mission. ”

The master of Situ Hall was dizzy when he heard it: "Eat a chicken, there is such a story behind it." ”

"Yes. This is the service philosophy of our restaurant, which strives to provide our guests with the healthiest and best chickens. The waiter said, "Therefore, chickens can't be eaten casually, and if the supply is not good, it is easy to get bird flu." ”

Master Situ very much agreed with the last sentence: "Yes, indeed, good health is important." Either you don't eat it, or you eat it clean. ”

The waiter bowed politely: "Then may I ask a few guests, do you want to help pack?" ”

"Hit, hit." Hall Master Situ looked at Fu Lingyuan and Xiao Ya and smiled, "According to this statement, their chickens here are a bit interesting, Hall Master Fu and Miss Xiao Ya pack them back and enjoy them slowly." ”

Fu Lingyuan squinted his eyes and did not speak, and after seeing the waiter's back, he looked around again.

Xiao Ya didn't speak, just sat there quietly, with a slightly strange expression.

…………

At the end of lunch, the group went to the racecourse as planned.

The subordinates sent by the master of Situ Hall to register at the racecourse in advance were sweating profusely and told him that the racecourse had been chartered today, and no one else could run the horses.

"Chartered?" As the host, Master Situtang's first reaction was naturally faceless, and he looked at the racecourse from a distance, which was clearly empty, and there was no half of a figure in sight, "Who can charter the venue arrogantly?" Why don't you see people? ”

The subordinate shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

The master of Situ Hall has not been in Rongcheng for a day or two, and he naturally has connections, and this manor is naturally no exception, so he immediately asked his subordinates to contact the division manager in the manor.

The district manager came quickly, and came with good news: "I helped the master of the Situ hall to inquire about the distinguished guests who chartered the racecourse today, and I heard that a few of them were guests of the Qingmen, and expressed their willingness to give the Qingmen face and let the two hall masters play in it together." ”

"It's just—" the manager's words changed, "this distinguished guest here today has a habit of cleanliness, especially the chicken is particularly dirty, I heard that a few people who have just come from the restaurant to taste the restaurant's special whole chicken feast, expressed the hope that a few, whether they are chickens themselves, or people who eat chickens, can first eliminate the virus, otherwise it will not be good if you accidentally infect the bird flu." ”

Xiaoya naturally noticed the sentence "itself is a chicken", and her face changed subtly.

The master of Situ Hall completely fell on the meaning of the whole sentence, and was furious: "What kind of 'distinguished guest' is so rude as soon as he speaks? You're scolding us, isn't it?! ”

"Shhhh Hush! No! Master Situ, please calm down first! The manager was busy calming the emotions of the master of Situ Hall, and explained in a low voice, "The other party is really a distinguished guest, a distinguished guest from all the way from Jiangcheng. With a lot of money and a background, it's really hard to mess with. ”

Where was the master of Situ Hall angry: "How bad is it to mess with?" They are not easy to mess with, but we Qingmen are easy to mess with? ”

"People say they have a relationship with you Qingmen, so they don't mean to humiliate you. It's really just an obsessive-compulsive disorder of other people's cleanliness habits. The manager reassured.

The master of Situ Hall frowned: "You haven't been talking for a long time and haven't clarified what the other party is about?" Who has a relationship with our Qingmen? ”

"Jiangcheng's dealer, do you know him?" The manager's voice went low and low.

"The dealer of Jiangcheng?" Hall Master Situ frowned.

Fu Lingyuan spoke out at this time: "Jiangcheng dealer? ”

"Yes, Jiangcheng Dealer." The manager nodded, "It's the mysterious and low-key invisible richest man with all kinds of rumors on the Internet, a century-old family, and a Jiangcheng banker." ”

As soon as he said this, Master Situ knew it at once.

"Who is the Jiangcheng Zhuang family here?" Fu Lingyuan asked again.

The manager shook his head: "This is not in the range of people below us who should know." There were several of them. Anyway, the boss of our manor ordered to be entertained well, and you must not be offended. ”

"Hall Master Fu, this is ...... now" Hall Master Situ was half-puzzled.

Fu Lingyuan was syruping: "The dealer in Jiangcheng does have a relationship with our Qingmen. When I went to Jiangcheng to inspect a while ago, something happened to the two halls of our Qingmen there, and I almost offended each other. Lu Ye knew about this. ”

A few simple words of explanation made the master of Situ Hall pay attention to it immediately, after all, they all used the wording "offend the other party", and Lu Zhenhua was also moved, and he was busy saying: "Disinfection!" Let's disinfect it right away! Master Fu, if this is the case, even if we don't run today, from the perspective of etiquette, we must go and greet us. ”

"Hmm." Fu Lingyuan agreed, turned around and took Xiaoya in vain, "Let's go, go disinfect." ”

Smiling, he half-praised and half-teased meaningfully: "Thank you again." If it weren't for the fact that you were in the mood to run a race, we would have missed the opportunity to greet the distinguished guests. ”

Xiaoya had a bad premonition and tapped her eyelids.

…………

The sterilization procedure is separate for men and women.

Not only Fu Lingyuan and Situ Hall Master, but also Li Qing, Zhao Shisan, and the two cronies brought by Situ Hall Master's side.

But it's fast, just wash your hands, wash your face, and get by.

Xiao Ya's side was delayed for more than ten minutes, and when she came to meet Fu Lingyuan, her face was blue and white, with a look of grievance and shame.

"What's wrong? Why is it delayed for so long? Fu Lingyuan frowned and was concerned.

Xiao Ya's expression was even more aggrieved, but she only replied: "It's nothing." ”

However, a female nurse who sent her out said, "Please cooperate with this young lady next time, and you won't have to waste each other's time." Since it is disinfection, of course, you have to take off your clothes and wipe the disinfectant all over your body. ”

Fu Lingyuan raised his eyebrows lightly in response - no wonder Xiaoya came out, and her whole body was covered with a strong smell.

The female nurse then bowed and apologized: "As for the 'tattoo' on your arm that we accidentally erased, I'm really sorry. We didn't know that the 'tattoo' was painted. ”

Fu Lingyuan narrowed his eyes again.

Xiao Ya's face turned pale, and she subconsciously grabbed Fu Lingyuan's sleeve and was silent.

After the female doctor left, Xiaoya dared to look up at him, her eyes were red: "They are too humiliating, no, they don't treat me as a human being at all, but dirty things, forcibly stripping me naked is already very excessive, and they also brushed disinfectant on my body." ”

Fu Lingyuan's dark eyes stared at her fingers without warmth.

He didn't spit out a word, but it was enough for Xiao Ya to shrink her body slightly and let go of his sleeves.

Fu Lingyuan sneered: "Do you like to draw tattoos? ”

Xiao Ya forcibly held back her tears: "Because I will see Hall Master Situ today, I made preparations just in case." It's not what you said, don't let outsiders know that the two of us don't live together? ”

Fu Lingyuan stared at her and cried.

Hall Master Situ came over at this time and asked, "What's the matter, Hall Master Fu?" Did something happen to Miss Xiaoya? ”

Fu Lingyuan turned around and smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that she was asked to disinfect, and she felt uncomfortable." I coaxed her and she would be fine. ”

As he spoke, he gently hugged Xiaoya, and said in a doting voice: "It's because I'm not strong enough that I want you to follow me to see other people's faces." ”

In this matter, the master of Situ Hall was on Fu Lingyuan's first team, and said helpfully: "Miss Xiaoya doesn't understand some of the unavoidable difficulties of our men when they are doing things outside. ”

If she goes on, she will be a woman who doesn't know the general situation. Xiaoya quickly collected her emotions and smiled softly: "I'm fine, it's my little family who is angry." ”

Fu Lingyuan hooked his lips and walked away with her: "Don't you want to learn to run a horse?" Teach you now. ”

"Yes, yes, go and run the horse, Miss Xiaoya, don't be in a bad mood because of those details." Master Situ hurriedly agreed.

Of course, now when you come to the racecourse, the most important thing is not to accompany Xiaoya to run a horse.

The housekeepers of the dealer were stationed in almost the entire racecourse, and the master of the Situ Hall immediately asked his men to inquire where the dealer's VIPs were, and whether they could greet people in person - there was no one on the racetrack at all.

After changing into a horse suit, Fu Lingyuan took Xiaoya to pick up a horse.

Hearing that she was riding a horse for the first time, the trainer recommended a horse that was said to be the most docile, well-behaved, and most suitable for novices.

After leading the horses outside, the master of the hall did not use the light bulbs of the two of them, and rode his horse towards the track.

Fu Lingyuan stayed where he was and taught Xiaoya how to get on the horse.

It was clear that the horse was very docile, but as soon as Xiaoya got close, it began to move restlessly for some reason.

The onlooker couldn't help but come over and remind: "The smell of disinfectant on this young lady's body may have smoked the horses." ”

Xiao Ya inevitably showed a trace of embarrassment on the ground.

Seeing that they were still grinding, Master Situ Hall, who came back from running a lap, jokingly suggested: "Master Fu, don't bother, just take Miss Xiaoya to ride together." ”

Fu Lingyuan looked at him: "Then she has to sit on the horse." ”

Xiao Ya's eyes flashed slightly, and the originally consumed will seemed to be re-energized: "I can." ”

This time she really made up her mind, regardless of the horse's restlessness and dodging, and forced herself on the horse.

"It worked!" Xiao Ya sat on the back of the horse, holding the reins tightly with both hands, and looked at Fu Lingyuan with joy.

At the same time, his eyes were also full of expectation, antimid and fearful, and he asked Fu Lingyuan tremblingly: "I'm stiff and don't dare to move now, come up and continue to teach me!" ”

Fu Lingyuan's pupils shrank slightly.

Situ Hall Master's subordinates came to report at this time: "There is news, the dealer's VIP is in the VIP lounge at the back, and the dealer's slave said that he can meet with the two hall masters there." ”

Hall Master Situ immediately asked Fu Lingyuan what he meant: "Hall Master Fu, do you think we are in the past now?" ”

Fu Lingyuan's eyes were fleeting, and there was an imperceptible gleam, and after collecting it, he didn't answer the master of Situ Hall immediately, but turned to Xiao Ya: "I'll let Thirteen accompany you first, or you can ask the horse trainer for advice yourself." I'll go to work with Master Situ first. ”

Xiaoya didn't dare to ignore the general situation, and softly agreed: "Okay, it's important to do business, I don't care." ”

"Uh-huh," Fu Lingyuan patted her hand holding the reins soothingly, and the corners of his lips smiled, "I'll be your coach myself when I come out." ”

Xiaoya nodded.

Fu Lingyuan took Li Qing, and Master Situ took his subordinates, led by the slaves of the Zhuang family, and went to the lounge together.

Xiao Ya's gaze couldn't be taken back for a long time, until the horse sitting under it suddenly moved.

She hurriedly tightened the reins, and quickly turned her head around to find the trainer.

The horse trainer who was waiting next to him just now was gone.

Xiaoya turned to Zhao Shisan for help: "Brother Thirteen, can you help me?" ”

Zhao Shisan's eyes in the corner were stunned, but it was not because of Xiaoya, but because of Ruan Shu, who led the horse out of the stable in the back.

"Ruan, Ruan, Ruan, Sister Ruan!" Zhao Shisan stumbled in greetings.

Xiao Ya's back stiffened, and she turned her head when she heard the sound.

Ruan Shu happened to have led the horse to Xiaoya's side, tilted his head slightly, and looked at her: "I didn't win or lose on the tennis court before, and today I originally planned to continue to compete with you on the racecourse, but now you don't know how to ride a horse?" ”

Xiao Ya was sitting on horseback, Ruan Shu was standing on the ground, in terms of height, it was obvious that Ruan Shu was looking up at her, but Xiao Ya felt that it was more like Ruan Shu was in a higher position at this time to look at her.

"Miss Ruan......?" Xiaoya looked surprised and incredulous, "Is it really you?" How did you end up here? Haven't you been kidnapped and disappeared for months? ”

As she spoke, she looked at Ruan Shu carefully, and then the surprise and disbelief on her face turned into joy and happiness for Ruan Shu's safety: "It seems that Miss Ruan is not a big deal?" That's great! Not only are the police looking for you, but the master is also very concerned about you, and has sent a large number of people to search for your whereabouts before. He would be very happy to know that you are okay! ”

Ruan Shu's slender eyebrows were gently raised, and he especially wanted to applaud Xiaoya's memory and coherent plot thinking.

If Xiao Ya didn't mention it, she didn't go back herself.

Yes, before she was kidnapped by Tan Fei and then disappeared, she was the object of Lu Shaocong's pursuit.

In Xiaoya's place, the plot should indeed be connected from that place.

It's just that Lu Shaocong was specifically mentioned, what do you want to express?

Ruan Shu was not interested in exploring Xiao Jiujiu in her heart, the corners of her lips curled slightly, and she didn't answer her words, but asked her question again: "Miss Xiaoya can't ride a horse, does she?" ”

"I'm sorry, I've swept Miss Ruan's interest, I can't accompany Miss Ruan to run for the time being." Xiaoya shook her head politely and embarrassedly, "Mr. Fu just taught me to get on a horse." I'll have to let Mr. Fu teach me two more times. ”

Ruan Shu bowed slightly, smiling: "Hmm." I remember that Miss Xiaoya was a very fast learner. At that time, on the tennis court, Miss Xiaoya also said that she didn't know how to play tennis, and after learning two hands, she played well. ”

Xiao Ya's eyes were bright, and she said shyly: "Maybe because I learn things from the people I like, I will indeed learn faster." In my heart, I want to behave well in front of him, and I want to be perfect. Of course, the most important thing is that Mr. Fu teaches well. ”

Two people who love each other, those who learn are attentive and learn quickly; The one who teaches is also attentive, so he teaches quickly.

That's probably what she was trying to say.

Ruan Shu pursed her lips slightly with a faint smile, did not comment, and only sat on the horse's back by herself, the movement on the horse was clean and neat, and after sitting on the horse's back, the correct posture and the horse running suit on her body made her whole person look energetic, confident, and even rarely had a bit of heroic taste on her.

Xiaoya looked at her sideways.

Ruan Shu also turned his face to meet her. Her height is already superior to the petite and delicate Xiao Ya, and the foal she rides is taller than Xiao Ya, and even taller than Xiao Ya after sitting on the horse.

As far as Xiao Ya is concerned at this moment, it is no longer as if, but it is real, Ruan Shu is looking at her condescendingly.

The sparkle in Xiaoya's autumn water pupils flickered gently unconsciously.

This kind of flashing, Ruan Shu can see it, to be honest, it matches Xiaoya's whole temperament very well, it is very pitiful, even she, a woman, has a little pity for her delicateness, let alone a man?

But......

Ruan Shu curled the corners of his lips: "But what to do?" Even though I know you can't ride a horse, I still want to bully you and let you run with me. ”

With that, she slammed a whip at Xiaoya's horse.
