At about 7 o'clock in the evening, when the three of them just came to the East Third Ring Road, Li Xiangping received a phone call.

"Oh oh good ......."

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiangping smiled at Zhao Daokai, who was driving:

"Daokai, you need to change the place to park later, and change it to the Kunlun Hotel."

The Great Wall and Kunlun are actually next to each other, both in the East Third Ring Road of Chaoyang, and they are both five-star hotels built in the eighties of the last century, so there is not much difference in nature.

But isn't this because of the annex of the Great Wall Hotel, so Zhao Daokai laughed when he heard it:

"Hehe, change Kunlun? Okay, it's good to change it. ”

Cai Shanshan, who was sitting in the back row with Li Xiangping, didn't pay attention to this detail, she pretended to ask very casually:

"Who just called?"

"Hehe, who else, host."

"Humph! Host. ”

Li Xiangping smelled an unusual smell, it was like playing chess: "He suddenly felt a little strange taste", so Li Xiangping immediately shut up.

Fortunately, the destination was not far away, and a few minutes later, Zhao Daokai's Po Posang drove into the Kunlun Hotel.

When parking, this broken car was not discriminated against, which made Li Xiangping feel amazing, and at the same time a little regretful, saying that it was rare for him to cross once, why didn't he encounter the most traditional opportunity to pretend to be slapped in the face?

It's really boring, so I can make myself as cool as other seniors.

The three of them were about to walk into the hall, but they unexpectedly found that Big Lick was waiting at the door, and not only her, but the girls at the door, in addition to Yaya and Da Meiyuan, there were also 3 girls that Li Xiangping didn't know, looking at these 3 were about the same age as Big Licking, it was estimated that they were either her classmates or girlfriends.

Seeing this, Li Xiangping almost knew the bottom of his heart: It is estimated that this change of location was not arranged in advance, but was improvised.

Zhao Daokai took the lead in greeting him, joking as he walked:

"Haha Tiantian, there's no need to be so polite, right? I also deliberately stood at the door to greet me, tsk tsk is too grand and grand, how can I afford it......"

Big Lick Lick smiled and said, "You are a poor mouth, who greeted you." ”

While the two of them were joking there, Li Xiangping was looking around, wanting to see if there were any others, especially if the old road had come.

However, after looking around, I didn't see anyone else, which made Li Xiangping more and more determined, this transition was indeed improvised, after all, these people today, except for Da Meiyuan, are all students, since they are students, it is really inappropriate to go to the Great Wall Hotel, it is easy for people to think about it.

Li Xiangping nodded secretly in his heart, not to mention the rest, Lao Lu and the team behind the big licking have always paid more attention to this aspect.

Thinking that it was another ordinary young man's eating and drinking, Li Xiangping was in a much relaxed mood, and he also began to talk and laugh with everyone.

There are strangers here, first of all, of course, they introduce each other, and the other 3 girls are really classmates or friends of Big Lick, two from the Dance Academy, and one of them turned out to be from the Conservatory, anyway, with the social circle of Big Licking, it is not surprising that she has a group of such friends.

And when it comes to Li Xiangping's side, the situation is much simpler, because he doesn't need to introduce it at all, although Go is a niche sport, he is no longer a passerby, and the 3 strange girls all know him, no, to be precise, they should all know his name.

So knowing each other just now is like asking the three girls to reconfirm and confirm whether the person in front of them is Li Xiangping's deity.

"Hehe, Li Daqisheng, there's nothing else here, but there are still a lot of restaurants, what do you say we will eat at night?"

Faced with the host's inquiry, Li Xiangping responded politely:

"I'm fine, as long as it's not bean juice and fried liver."

Li Xiangping's words attracted a warm response from a group of girls: You don't eat these two things?

Li Xiangping nodded in confirmation, it is a little strange to say, in fact, Li Xiangping is not particular about eating, or he basically has no taboos.

Not only can he eat the eight major cuisines in China, but he also has no problem with Japanese and French food, and even Korean kimchi.

Not only that, but even the dark cuisine in the eyes of many Chinese people, such as the big snail in Africa, Li Xiangping can also eat it.

The only thing that he has not been able to adapt to is the two unique snacks of bean juice and fried liver in the capital.

Li Xiangping has heard a saying before, it is said that these two snacks have a very magical effect, which can identify whether you are from the old capital or not. Among them, especially the bean juice, if you take a sip and smile, and sigh with satisfaction from the heart, you are an authentic old Beijinger; If the brows are furrowed and the corners of the mouth are straight, it must be an outsider.

It was when he heard that this thing had such a magical effect, so after coming to the capital, he tried to get used to it. Unfortunately, he couldn't get used to it.

I tried it for more than ten years in my last life, but I couldn't get used to it.

After this rebirth, Li Xiang said in his heart that I am a traverser, so some things should always change.

So he tried again.

It's a pity that I still can't get used to it.

He still couldn't figure it out, just that kind of thing that is sour and bitter, with an obvious sour smell, like extremely swill and difficult to swallow, how can so many people like it?

Li Xiangping couldn't figure it out, so he had given up treatment now.

Obviously, most non-old Beijing girls must not be used to eating these two things, so after listening to Li Xiangping's words, they licked and laughed:

"Why don't we go to the top, the food at the top here is still good."

"No problem, no problem, today you are the boss, you call the shots......."

The host got the idea, and everyone went to the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the hotel. This old hotel has actually just been renovated, so Li Xiangping went upstairs while observing the surrounding environment.

After reading it, he shook his head, and at the level of his half-civil dog, he thought that the new renovation of the hotel was a complete failure.

It can be seen that the designer has great ambitions, trying to integrate oriental temperament and western fashion design elements, and wants to express "the combination of Chinese and Western styles" everywhere, and "ruggedness and delicacy complement each other".

It's a pity that the idea may be good, but the level of the designer is not enough, especially in the revolving restaurant on the top floor, it is even trying to express the mood of the Chinese garden "moving and changing the scenery", which is simply inexplicable, not only too many ideas, but also unskillful, completely into a hodgepodge of patchwork.

“....... At this level, I'm afraid that if Li Da Tuhao does this design, it may be stronger than this......."

Just when Li Xiangping was thinking like this, he inadvertently saw the name of the designer, a designer from a lighthouse country, and he instantly understood:

“....... No wonder, it's understandable that it's the designer of the lighthouse country, of course, there are a lot of other cattle in the lighthouse country, but the fashion design is still forgotten, which has been despised by Europeans for hundreds of years, why hasn't there been any growth until now, well, it's just that the people in China are praising their stinky feet......."

Of course, Li Xiangping is here to eat today, not to see the environment, as long as there is food, it doesn't matter how bad the designer is, not to mention that there are so many eye-catching beautiful girls around, so this aspect is almost, it really won't affect his appetite.

"What do you eat?" The hosts began to ask for everyone's opinions.

The pinnacle restaurant of Kunlun Hotel is actually like a high-end club, in addition to the hodgepodge of design style, there is nothing to be picky about in other aspects, especially the food here, there are 12 different cuisines, Chinese, Western, Japanese, Indian and Southeast Asian delicacies, as well as a variety of special cocktails and fine red wine, so after the big licking and licking speech, a large group of warblers and Yanyan began to discuss.

However, girls talk about this kind of thing, everyone understands, it is basically difficult to get a unified opinion, especially today there are so many people, there are so many to choose from, and more importantly, everyone is here to eat temporarily, so after talking about it for a few minutes, there is not even a unified opinion of more than 3 votes.

Of course, the critical moment still depends on the boys.

And there are only two boys present today, and Zhao Daokai took the lead in expressing his opinion: "Hehe, let's eat barbecue, Turkish barbecue." ”

Well, in fact, Zhao Daokai's suggestion is really fine, after all, it is one of the three major cuisines in the world, Turkish cuisine and my Great Chinese cuisine and French cuisine, and the Turkish barbecue in Kunlun Hotel is quite good, and it is very famous in this year.

However, there is no accident, as soon as his opinion came out, he was strongly opposed by others, barbecue, in the minds of young girls, what a terrifying existence, Zhao Daokai got the only vote of support, that is from Yaya, she is from Xinjiang, so she does not resist barbecue.

However, even if it is her, it actually belongs to the category of "friendship approval", for example, she didn't say that she ate barbecue just now.

So in the end, everyone could only look at Li Xiangping, but Li Xiangping came up with an even more unreliable idea:

"Hehe, since this doesn't work, then let's just eat Indian food, what do you think?"

Silence, no one paid attention to Li Xiangping at this time, and most people cast strange eyes at him.

In the end, it was still a good person, and she gave a friendly assist:

"Hey, Xiangping's idea is a bit strange, why did you suddenly think of eating Indian food?"

Li Xiangping smiled: "It's nothing, I just saw that everyone ordered everything, but no one ordered Indian food, so I wanted to try it." ”

Cai Shanshan answered: "Have you ever eaten Indian food?" ”

"No, I don't know anything other than that Indian food loves curry and onions."

Cai Shanshan's eyes widened, with an incredible expression: "Since you haven't eaten it, how dare you eat it?" ”

Li Xiangping looked at Cai Shanshan with the same incredible eyes: "If you haven't eaten it, you don't dare to eat it, what kind of logic is this?" ”

"You ......"

Seeing that the two of them were staring at each other, it was the host who ran out to play a round:

"Okay, okay Xiangping, you just said that everyone hasn't eaten, this is indeed a reason, but this reason can't convince everyone, I think so, if you can still name a reason to eat Indian food, then everyone will listen to you, everyone says this is okay."

The other little girls began to coax and expressed their approval of the big licking opinion.

After everyone finished coaxing, Li Xiangping made a helpless statement:

"Alas, I didn't want to say it, because it's a shame to say it, I didn't get good grades in English when I was a child, and I'm going to take the university entrance exam soon, so now, I decided to eat more Indian food and see if I can improve my English."

The others looked at each other when they heard this, but because everyone was not too familiar, it was difficult to say anything, only Zhao Daokai laughed:

"Haha, you guy...... Now I finally know why you can play Go so well, the brain circuit is really different, eat Indian food to improve your English? What kind of logic are you, aren't you afraid that after eating too much curry, even your English will taste curry? ”

Li Xiangping smiled: "Hehe Daokai, this is really right, I want to eat Indian food, then I really hope that my English can have a curry flavor, the third brother's curry-style English is the most authentic English, you don't even know this." ”

Zhao Daokai was stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

And not only Zhao Daokai, but others also questioned Li Xiangping's statement, saying that he was "nonsense".

Li Xiangping had no choice, so he had to give everyone a science popularization at this time, in linguistics, English is classified as an Indo-European language, and the ancient Sanskrit of India is actually the same root, and even from the perspective of purity, the English of Western countries is really not as good as Ah San English.

“........ In the 19th century, the Indo-European language family was called the Indo----Germanic language family, or simply called the Aryan language family, and when it comes to the Aryans, everyone must know that the high races of the Asan are basically Aryans, and the racial hierarchy of the Asan is deep-rooted, in fact, it is this deep-rooted, but it ensures the purity of the Asan's English, so to speak, if the British English is like our Mandarin, then the American English due to the strength of the Yankees, the cultural strength will inevitably bring the strength of the language, This is a bit like the popular "Hong Kong and Taiwan accent" in China for more than ten years, and the third brother's English, in fact, is a bit similar to our ancient "Yayu", it is the source of all English, and because it preserves a certain degree of purity, so if other English wants to be Shuoyuan or even set the accent standard, it has to be found in the third brother's English. ”

A group of girls thought it was amazing when they heard it, and they all said, "Really? ”

Li Xiangping said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's important for me to do this, can you accompany me to eat Indian food?" ”

There's nothing to say, as soon as Li Xiangping's reason came out, all the warblers and Yanyan agreed one after another, and some of them even said that they would also learn from Li Xiangping, and eat more Indian food in the future, so that their English could have a curry flavor.

After a while, maybe because of hunger, everyone feasted on a table of Indian food.

After all, it is a five-star Kunlun restaurant, so although the Indian food made here is not very delicious, it is not unpalatable.

Even more undead.

While eating, Li Xiangping looked at Cai Shanshan intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Xiangping was proud in his heart, and said in his heart Who told you to show off your London accent every day, and dare to despise me for having a strong English accent, I have really put up with you for a long time.

After happily eating this meal of Ah San, Li Xiangping put his mind back to Go.

Although he must take the university exam, the philosophy department must be enrolled, and the English must be practiced, the focus of his life is still on Go and in the game.

A week later, the last round of the Weijia game------ although this round of the game was irrelevant due to winning the championship in advance, but considering that he was full attendance this year, it was amazing that he didn't pull a set, so Li Xiangping started and ended well and ended with a one-set victory, so that his record in Weijia this year was fixed at 20-2.

On the third day after the end of the siege, Li Xiangping immediately followed the large army to South Korea to participate in the first two rounds of this year's "LG Cup".

There is nothing to say about the two games of chess, and in the first round, he won a Korean four-dan named Kim Kwang-sik------ a name that Lee Xiangping has never heard of at all, and he has never heard of it in his previous life or in this life.

The opponent in the second round is a bit famous, South Korea's Lee Ying Jiuqi Duan, because he is now also a foreign aid in the armor, so many domestic chess fans know him.

It's just that Li Ying's ninety-seven section didn't pose much threat to Li Xiangping, and in 196 hands, Li Xiangping won the opponent steadily and continued to make great progress in the World Series.

After the "LG Cup", the time has come to late September, and Li Xiangping is about to go to Tokyo, Japan to participate in the quarterfinals of the 2nd "Toyota Cup".
