Chapter 153: Dinner Together
Seeing Ling Key's attitude so resolute, Angelina wrinkled her nose and stopped insisting. But he still followed Ling Jian to the kitchen, and was surprised again.
Not only was Ling Key's kitchen bigger than theirs, but the cleanliness inside was outrageous. No matter where it is, it is cleaned to a sparkling light, and it is truly "spotless"!
Angelina thinks that she and Snow are both very clean girls, and she will clean up the kitchen after every use. But compared to this one, it's two different levels!
Ling Key's kitchen was as clean as if it had never been used...... However, Angelina thought about it, Ling Jian had indeed just moved in, and it seemed that she really hadn't used it!
"It's not okay to leave a guest out alone." Angelina said, taking a seat on a chair next to the kitchen counter, "You don't mind if I observe your cooking, do you?" ”
This is the dining table when Ling Jian eats alone.
Ling Jian shrugged: "Whatever you want, just don't mess with the things in the room." ”
As he spoke, he laid out the ingredients in the paper bag one by one. Meat, vegetables, fish and balls are readily available, and they are all the freshest. Because it is impossible for the merchants who sell ingredients to go out to buy before dawn in the early morning, they buy every day during the night market hours. Although the next day the ingredients are not considered the freshest, no one accounts for them now.
The contents of the paper bag are extraordinarily much larger, and the portions are quite intimidating. That is, Angelina, a high-level witcher, otherwise she may not be able to pick it up if she is an ordinary girl of the same age.
Looking at the raw materials that were laid out by Ling Key, Angelina also estimated the menu in her heart. Then she pointed to the ingredients and asked, "That's all...... Can you eat enough? ”
Ling Jian was stunned for a moment, looking at the ingredients on the cooking table that were almost full, this amount was purchased according to the amount of his two main meals. Although there is an extra mouth now, it is not enough to eat, right?
Looking at the girl next to her suspiciously, Ling Jian suddenly realized. Judging from the performance of most of his desserts this morning, this ghost sword girl probably has quite an amazing appetite, right?
Then I saw Angelina looking at her with the same eyes.
- This morning, this guy prepared a dessert like a hill, saying that it was breakfast. It seems that although he still looks a little thin, he is actually a big stomach that is not amazing?
The eyes of the two collided, and then Angelina suddenly saw each other's thoughts, and her cheeks instantly turned crimson.
"That's not right! You're thinking wrong! The girl hurriedly denied, "I just like desserts." I'm just an ordinary girl when it comes to normal meals! ”
“…… I'm pretty much the same. Ling Jian said calmly, "As long as the energy replenished is enough, I can stop eating for several days." Eating and sleeping break the rules of normal humans, which is also a necessary quality for witchers, right? ”
"Is there anything taboo?" Ling Jian asked again.
Angelina shook her head.
"So, here I go."
The moment the words fell, Angelina found that the atmosphere of the entire kitchen suddenly became solemn, and Ling Key, who was standing in the center of the kitchen, was even more like a person, extremely focused, highly concentrated, and even as if the light was distorting around him.
At this moment, in Angelina's perception, Ling Key is the master of this space. There is a kind of sharpness similar to after drawing a sword.
Ling Jian didn't do it immediately, but stood there and closed his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he walked over to Angelina and pulled out a delicate mechanical timer from the drawer of the counter.
With a click of the button, the three-hundred-second countdown begins. At the same time, Ling Jian himself also acted at high speed like a wind-wound machine!
Wash the ingredients, cut them, light them for preheating, and prepare the seasonings...... All pre-cooking preparations are carried out in an orderly manner, with precision and efficiency, without the slightest waste.
Angelina was also forced by this momentum for a while, and subconsciously breathed lightly. She finally understood why Ling Jian didn't let her help in the kitchen - this sense of urgency, rhythm, was not something that normal people could adapt to, right?
This guy, is he really cooking dinner?
Angelina couldn't help but be suspicious, and remembered that Ling Key's profession was a maker, and then she suddenly realized that this atmosphere was basically doing some kind of alchemy experiment!
The three-hundred-second timer was over, and Ling Jian pinched the time to restart the timer at the last second.
"Sorry, was it scared?" While Ling Jian was busy, he said to the girl, "It may be a little different from the normal kitchen and cooking style. ”
"It's a bit like Master Mei's focus on cooking." Angelina said that because of Watts, she and Snow went to Liu Gongxuan's house to eat.
"Hehe," Ling Jian chuckled softly, "it's still very different. Master Mei is a professional master chef, and I am a maker. ”
"You know, in fact, there has always been a tradition in my teacher's school......" Ling Jian continued, as if in this state of concentration, he became talkative, "We believe that a good maker must also be a good chef - the kitchen is the workshop, and the ingredients are the ingredients; The essence of completing a meal is to make new items...... Therefore, the makers of our school have good cooking skills. ”
"Huh? And such strange rules? Angelina wondered, "Still, I think I've heard of ...... somewhere."
Ling Jian said to himself: "Therefore, the teacher also has the best cooking skills, and in my subjective judgment, he is not inferior to a special chef. Her control in the kitchen is even more terrifying, the time is accurate to milliseconds, the quality of ingredients is accurate to milligrams, and the temperature of the fire is controlled to the thousandth...... And I've always been her assistant. So I'm more used to being in the assistant position, or doing it myself, and if someone helps me, it's very uncomfortable. ”
"I see." Angelina suddenly said, "Hearing you say that, I'm very curious about your teacher, and I really want to try her food." ”
"It's going to explode." Ling Jian looked back and smiled.
"Huh? What the? ”
"It's going to explode," Ling Jian repeated again, "The food made by the teacher himself will explode when others eat it." ”
"What the hell is this?" The girl couldn't help but complain, "Why does the food explode instead...... Wait a minute! ”
She suddenly jumped up in surprise: "You're talking about the famous beauty maker Zhang Wenjie!" Known as one of the '12 incredible alliances', the self-revelation is about her! ”
Ling Jian showed a helpless wry smile: "Yes, it's her ......"
"So, Ling Jian is a student of the beauty maker?" Angelina reacted, "Can you make a Star Treasure Treasure?" ”
"I'm sorry, I didn't learn that." Ling Jian replied, "Speaking of which, although I call her teacher, we are not actually a teacher-student relationship, right?" I'm not the same as my teacher's school of making. ”
As he spoke, Ling Key brought a plate of cut fruit and put it in front of the girl: "Here, dinner will have to wait for a while." ”
"Thank you." Angelina was a little surprised, she didn't notice at all, and the other party took time out of her busy schedule to peel fruit for her.
"According to your theory, wouldn't Ling Key be a very powerful master?" The girl tilted her head and said.
"It's not great, I'm just getting started." Ling Jian was humble.
"It's a little strange that a technical talent should come to be a witcher?" Angelina stuck out her tongue, "But it's not for nothing. We also welcome such talented people to join us. However, almost all of the tasks accepted by the Witcher Studio are crusades against demons and the like, so if you can't fight in person, you will suffer a lot, and your rating will not be upgraded. ”
Ling Jian smiled: "So I'm only temporarily joining the Demon Camp, and I haven't decided to stay like this." After all, I'm more of a risk-averse person. ”
"Hey, it's just annoying, not that you can't fight?" Angelina played with the taste, "In the future, won't you necessarily stay in our studio?" ”
"yes, but I think I'll still be in the city." Ling Jian said, "I like this house very much. ”
The girl lowered her cheeks and fell into deep thought.
Soon, a sumptuous dinner was ready. Ling Key's work efficiency is a little frightening.
Angelina also helped, and the two of them transferred an entire table of dishes to a table in the small dining room next to them.
The color and flavor are complete, and under Ling Key's careful calculation, all the dishes are served to the table when they are in the best condition - if it is the teacher Zhang Wenjie, the prepared dishes will be put into the storage box at a constant temperature and humidity until the meal is served.
The two of them were indeed hungry, and they were not polite, so they sat down and feasted.
The only downside is that Angelina doesn't think there are any desserts, such as petit fours.
"I feel like I'm tired of sweets today." Ling Jian said helplessly, "And the bread or something, I didn't have enough time to wait for it to ferment." ”
"How so!" The girl was surprised, "How can dessert be tired?" You can eat as much as you want! ”
“…… Forget it, there are still some chocolates at home. Think of it as a dessert after cooking. Ling Jian shook his head.
Although a table of meals was cooked, the two of them ate quickly. Obviously, Angelina's appetite is still a little bigger than that of "ordinary girls".
Maybe he felt that he was a little reluctant to "forcibly be a guest", or it was to make time for Ling Jian to prepare desserts. Angelina took the initiative to take over the task of washing the dishes.
This time, Ling Jian didn't insist.
