Chapter 37: Eating and Eating (I)

West Canteen, Li Zhen went for the first time. It wasn't until he walked in the door that he figured out what Ying Ran meant by "ready."

The square tables of the cafeteria are put together into a long strip filled with mountains of food. It includes not only traditional imperial delicacies and snacks, but also many Western pastries. The most terrifying of all were the two roasted pigs – as fast as a meter long, shiny and shiny, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with apples in their mouths, arranged at opposite ends of the table, steaming hot.

A whole row of liquor jīng drinks, white wine, red wine, beer, juice, nǎi tea, and mineral water were placed on the table, and the food inside was firmly enclosed like a high city wall.

Of course, these executives are not allowed to gather to drink during the day, so as soon as they saw the two of them walk in, it was as if a bomb had been thrown into the crowd in the cafeteria, and it exploded at once. The concern who had seen it a long time ago shouted loudly: "Why did you come here—we're all about to suffocate!" ”

And the other people's joys and laughter were also connected, and they almost broke the roof.

Li Zhen smiled slightly shyly and nodded in response to the colleagues around him. But thinking of Ying Ran's previous words, he tried to make himself look at ease, and responded with a few words loudly with a smile from time to time, following the example of others. But after a while, he was infected by this warm atmosphere, and he was truly relaxed from the heart.

To say something similar...... If you don't look at the uniforms on this group of people, it really looks like a class reunion after graduating from junior high school.

He was crowded to the dining table, and then saw what Ying Ran said, the "rookie king" of the previous session.

Newcomer Wang Hu Yanling has already taken off her coat and is only wearing a black sè warm shirt. The gray tie was pulled open by her and hung loosely around her neck, looking like she was grinning.

With one foot on the chair and one hand on her thigh, she leaned forward and stared at Li Zhen with a blank expression.

Li Zhen was a little embarrassed by her big eyes, and just wanted to say something, the corners of Hu Yanling's mouth suddenly showed a wicked smile. Then she pulled the hairband at the back of her head, and the long hair fell loosely. He raised his face again, his hair was full of green silk, and his right arm pointed at Li Zhen, shouting: "Lieutenant Li Zhen, are you ready for battle——?! ”

She had a heroic expression on her face, as if she wanted to reign over the world. The clear voice detonated the atmosphere of the audience.

A group of people hurriedly waved their arms and "roared": "War, war, war, war!" ……”

The sound wave like a roaring wave shook Li Zhen's eardrums, and it also made him finally completely and perfectly blend with the warm atmosphere, Suo Xìng unbuttoned his shirt, put the uniform of his new upper body that had not taken more than two hours on the back of the chair beside him, and ripped off his tie and shouted: "Come on, who is afraid of whom!" ”

A loud burst of laughter erupted. Hu Yanling also opened two bottles of beer with a smile, raised his hand and threw him a bottle, and raised his eyebrows: "Come, it's appetizing - do it first as a respect!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, as soon as she tilted her neck, the beer in the bottle fell rapidly-Li Zhen was dumbfounded, until a person behind him patted him on the shoulder: "Hurry up, hurry up!" She's going to run out! He hurriedly lifted the bottle, and he didn't know how much he drank in and how much came out, but after two breaths of air, he emptied the bottle......

My chest was already wet, and my heart was pounding. It's as if someone has mixed gunpowder in their blood, and their whole body is tense and numb, as if one mouth can sweep away everything on the table. The noise around him was so loud that it was hard to tell what everyone was talking about—he was a little drunk.

Then he saw one swaying face after another yelling and laughing at him, and people grabbed the bottle from the table and hugged him to the other end of the table. A guy who didn't know whether the shoulder of the road was a second lieutenant or a lieutenant or a captain walked up to the table and shouted: "Prepare the athletes on both sides, open - eat!" ”

He didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one, he was dizzy and grabbed the roasted pig with both hands, and stuffed it into his mouth, seeing that the group of people laughed again.

But to be honest, when the things in his hand were entered, Li Zhen let out a satisfied moan in his heart. I don't know what the hell is going on with those people in Ludao, it's obviously winter in January, and the beer is still cold. He hadn't eaten or drunk before the ceremony, and his stomach was empty. In addition, after pouring most of the bottle of cold beer, I only felt a cold breath in my stomach and a wringing pain.

But now after a few bites of the hot, smooth and tender barbecue, a warm current has been turned around against the stomach wall, and I suddenly feel comfortable.

So he began to eat and drink, chewing on the barbecue while stuffing the sliced fruit, nǎi oil pudding, chūn rolls, pizza, pine cakes, and other things on the small plate next to him into his mouth, his cheeks bulging and his cheeks were about to burst.

He took a few gulps and swallowed them into his stomach, and when he was about to grab a handful, a man leaned down from the noisy crowd and shouted in his ear: "Don't eat so fast! I won't be able to eat it for a while! ”

Li Zhen looked up at the blurry face in front of him, and found that he pointed to the opposite side. So he straightened up and found that Hu Yanling was also eating. But it's not his "fierce eating", but unhurried and methodical eating.

Although the appearance of eating is not elegant—holding the pig's front leg in his left hand, stuffing pine cake in his mouth with his right hand, and blinking at Li Zhen's gaze on the pair—it looks like he is preparing for a long-term battle.

So he suddenly realized, no longer launched a fierce attack, but like Hu Yanling, he picked up the dry hard ones and ate them first, planning to save the fruit cake and the like until he couldn't eat it before stuffing it into his mouth.

The two of them were in the fire, and the others found their own chairs or tables to sit on, bottles in their hands. Some people are betting, some people are filling their stomachs like the two of them, some people are whispering to each other, and of course many more are already drunk, screaming and cheering.

It was dark outside, and the cafeteria closed the door and turned on the lights in the room to prevent anyone from seeing this "unseemly" scene.

After nearly forty minutes of fighting, the cafeteria became somewhat quiet.

Because everyone was a little dumbfounded.

It's not uncommon to eat a meal for 40 minutes, even if it's four hours. However, after all, it was a conversation while eating, and in fact, most of the time it was communication. It's not like the two opposite—

They've been stuffing things into their mouths! It's not gobbling up, it's just eating at a normal human rate, but now...... The stuff on the desktop is almost half gone.

Just kidding, that roasted rǔ pig is good for three servings! But now these two have been done separately!
