Chapter 94: Eruption
Li Ming naturally had no way of knowing what happened after leaving, and he didn't think about it so much, but after leaving the venue, Li Ming suddenly felt at a loss, what should he do next?
Leave with the smoke and rain and return to China? Li Ming had already gotten the answer from the girl's eyes last night, and the girl would not agree to Li Ming and return to China with him.
The reason is nothing more than the word "strength".
Of course, this is not a high-martial world, strength is not how high a person's strength is, for a chef, it refers to his cooking level, the higher the cooking skills, the more he will be respected by everyone, after all, this is a world where even war can be resolved through a culinary duel, that is, a "halberd", and all disputes are handed over to the culinary duel.
The winner controls the words, and the loser loses everything.
This is the concept and rules that circulate throughout the world, and it is even rumored that this originated from the gods, Li Ming has no ability to change and resist, so he can only submit to the rules.
Li Ming walked on the spacious corridor, and his usual calm and indifferent state of mind had long since fallen into that mess, all of which was seen by a certain system.
At the moment, it is not knowing what unknown being it is talking to.
[Lord, is it really good to let it go like this? Although it is true that the host has problems in various aspects, it is undeniable that his talent is indeed rare in the world, and it is worthy of your ......]
[Heh, there is no need to say more...] An ethereal voice sounded, [This is the ordeal he will inevitably experience, stepping over is to help the clouds go straight up, and he fell...]
The latter words are vague, but the "system" also understands the meaning of the Lord, looking at the somewhat lost and depressed teenager, host, it's all up to you...
Li Ming didn't know the dialogue between the system and the unknown existence, he walked out of the hotel in a daze, looked up at the sky, the endless sky, like a blue mirror, reflecting the hustle and bustle of mortal dust, Li Ming couldn't help but have a kind of sadness that the world is so big and there is nowhere to go.
Suddenly, an "iron bird" crossed the sky, cutting through the blue sky, leaving a white trace, Li Ming somehow, watching the plane go away, a trace of throbbing pain flashed in his heart, and he was shocked, as if he had guessed something.
But before he could do anything, a security guard in a black uniform walked up to Li Ming, patted him on the shoulder, and said,
"Young man, is your name Li Ming?"
"Huh?" Before Li Ming could react, he nodded subconsciously.
"That's right, that little girl is really clever...... Oh, it was a little girl in a white dress just now, who asked me to give this letter to a student named Li Ming, and she said that the first one to walk out of the hotel must be the first..."
“…”
"That little girl knows you so well... But," the security uncle changed his tone, "this is your fault, that little girl knows you so well, you must have a very close relationship, why are you still angry with her?" ”
“…?”
"I see that although the little girl tried her best to hide it, there were still some redness and tears in the corners of her eyes, you must have quarreled... Young man, from my personal experience, you guys..."
Li Ming didn't listen to the security uncle's babbling words anymore, he took the white envelope handed over by the security uncle with some trembling, and his brain was already down.
Looking at the look of the young man in front of him, the security uncle sighed helplessly, the youth of the young man...
Li Ming, who didn't know how to return to his room, sat at the desk, looking at the letter on the table, a little hesitant, and finally opened it and read the letter left to him by Yanyu.
What catches your eye is the familiar font of Yanyu,
"Dear young master, please forgive me for not saying goodbye, but I think it's all good for you and for me..."
"Maybe you don't know the complicated situation in the country very well, young master, I know that because the young master has never paid attention to this aspect before, you are not interested in these things, but I can't not know..."
"No matter where it is, even if it seems to be a country with strict rules, the cooking circle still abides by the law of the jungle... That's why I can't let you, young master, get involved in such a situation. ”
"I know that the young master has undergone earth-shaking changes recently, and I also know that the young master's talent has awakened, and his cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and Yanyu is also very happy for the young master, if there is no such thing, I am willing to accompany the young master and go on step by step, yes, if there is no such thing..."
"It's too much to do, and now I can only guarantee that I can survive the chaotic turbulence, but..."
The hand on the table was clenched into a fist, Li Ming's face remained unchanged, but it could be seen from the faintly revealed green tendons on his hand that his heart was not calm.
"So young master, I hope you don't return to China for the time being, stay in Neon, there, at least the identity of the young master can ensure your safety, even if it is the turbulent Chinese cuisine circle, it is definitely not there that dares to shake..."The undisguised pride was revealed between the lines.
“… Young master, you can eat, drink and have fun in Neon with confidence, and wait for me to come back... Do you think I'm going to say that? ”
"Hmph, let me tell you, young master, don't you take advantage of my absence to hook up with your ignorant little sister at Neon, you know? Especially that blonde ** bull ..."
Li Ming looked at the words behind him, like the cute words of his little girlfriend telling his boyfriend, but he didn't laugh, his fingers gently stroked some slightly blurred small words on the envelope, and the touch given to him by the super tactile sense could make him clearly feel the difference in these places, the traces that had been wet...
Feeling the depth of affection, Li Ming suddenly felt uneasy,
"Now, system, are you there?"
【? 】
"Who do you think I am? Is it the abandoned mansion that has spent twenty years in another world and achieved nothing, or is it a native of this world and accompanies you... What about Li Ming, who has been by her side for ten years..."
In fact, this problem has been bothering him for a long time, although the system has explained it, but this uneasiness is still in his heart.
【…】
[Host, are you still struggling with this problem? 】
"What's the problem? Do you know, I'm really upset, because all her feelings are for the young master who has been with her for ten years, not me! Yes, you said that I am actually the same person as him, but for me, the memory of another time is a vivid memory, and I can't even remember the bits and pieces of getting along with Yanyu, do you know my feelings for her? ”
Maybe because of the girl's departure, Li Ming has been accumulating guilt, uneasiness, and even a little jealousy, these emotions burst out in one breath.
【…】
For a moment, the room fell into a dead silence.
After a long time, Li Ming's mood calmed down a little, and the system spoke,
[Calmed down? Hmph, I didn't expect you to be entangled for a long time because of this little thing? What a child...]
The system's tone of looking at a childish tantrum made Li Ming's face darken, and he had the urge to fight.
[Think about it carefully, do you think that little girl doesn't know about your changes? Do you know why she still treats you like that? 】
Li Ming was speechless for a while, in fact, he should have realized this problem a long time ago, but the feelings of facing the girl were really complicated, which made him a little overwhelmed.
[Some words don't need to be specified, but...] The tone of the system has changed a little [The most important thing now is... It's you here! 】
"yes, I'm the one here now..."
