Star Swirl enters the door and notices that the living room is not filled with the sofa she had seen in her dreams, but rather the two single fabric sofas left by her previous tenant.

"I brought you strawberries." Star Swirl rests her plate on the table and leans down to change her shoes.

"You're so polite," Xinyi smiled and beckoned to her, "No need to change your shoes, come and sit." Star Swirl glanced at the shoe closet, and there were no extra slippers to change, could it be that this woman was really living alone?

"I haven't cleaned up the house properly, you see it's a mess here." Xinyi took some porcelain bowls with sauce on the coffee table back to the kitchen and asked, "Xuanyue, what do you do?" ”

Star Swirl sat down on the couch and replied, "I haven't graduated from college yet, so I didn't have classes today, so I came over to check out." ”

"You're still a student, no wonder you feel tender when you look at it, I'm more than a decade older than you, you can call me Sister Xinyi in the future." She grabbed a bottle of soda from the fridge and handed it to Star Swirl, "That handsome guy yesterday was your boyfriend, right?" ”

Star Swirl laughs silently, and Xinyi probably thinks she's pretending to be reserved, but she doesn't know if Star Swirl really doesn't know how to answer. "As soon as you look at the atmosphere between you, you know it's a drag." Xinyi smiled.

Star Swirl digressed from that and asked, "Sister Xinyi, what do you usually do?" Is it an office worker? ”

Xinyi shook her head and said, "I run a restaurant with my husband. She turned the wedding ring on her ring finger and continued: "Have you ever tasted Cantonese-style lo-mei?" ”

Star Swirl swallowed and replied, "Is that the lo-mei platter?" ”

Xinyi's eyes lit up: "That's right! Our family's lo-mei has a secret recipe, it is very delicious, you can go to the store at any time, Sister Xinyi invites you. ”

"Alright," Star Swirl nodded, "only the food can live up to it." ”

With Xinyi saying goodbye, Star Swirl returns to Mr. X's apartment with a business card with the address of the lo mei shop on it. After not making much progress today, Star Swirl decides to take a day off and visit Hinyi's restaurant.

Star Swirl spent the entire afternoon half-asleep, only to come to her senses when the sound of conversation came from the hall.

"So sleepable? It's overconsumption, right? It seems to be Lu Jingfan's voice.

"Probably." Mr. X replied.

"Are you really going to 'associate' with her?"

"Well, it's more convenient for everyone."

"I know that you are not here for convenience, it really surprised me that you took the initiative to make this request, I hope you will never regret it."

Star Swirl couldn't quite understand what they were saying, and she got up and walked to the living room to ask. Mr. X saw her sleepy-eyed and asked, "Don't sleep for a while?" ”

"I've slept for a long time." Star Swirl looked at Lu Jingfan, who still maintained a flirtatious smile, "Yo~ Kitten hasn't seen you for a long time, why are you hiding from me so far?" ”

"Mr. Deer, you're here." Star Swirl smiled politely at him.

"Go get us something to eat." Lu Jingfan said to Mr. X, "I'll start work after eating." ”

"You're here to eat." Mr. X shook his head helplessly, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Knowing that he had deliberately pushed Mr. X apart, Star Swirl stopped talking and sat silently to look at his phone. Lu Jingfan walked straight up to Star Swirl and snatched his phone, "You'd better not hide anything from us." ”

Seeing him staring sharply at her, Star Swirl said with a little weakness, "What do you mean?" ”

Lu Jingfan snorted coldly: "It's best to think clearly about things in the future, so as not to affect others." He tossed his phone back to Star Swirl, and changed back to his hippie smile, "X, is the meal ready, I'm going to starve to death!" ”

After dinner, Star Swirl hands over the energy lock and goes to sleep in her room, which is the only way she can't dream.

When she woke up the next morning, Star Swirl was relieved to see the energy lock fastened on her wrist. "Morning."

At this time, Mr. X was sitting in the hall reading a book, and Star Swirl looked around, but Lu Jingfan was nowhere to be seen. "He's gone." Mr. X didn't even lift his eyelids.

With Lu Jingfan gone, Star Swirl felt that the morning had become better and asked, "What function did the energy lock improve this time?" ”

Mr. X replied, "With the locking function, once the energy source is detected, it can be tracked all the way to its location. ”

"What else?"

"It's gone." Xingshi invited Lu Jingfan to invite everyone, and only added one function?

"Oh, there's a new button to prompt the creation of illusions, you said before." Mr. X added.

Star Swirl nodded, "That's not bad." Today I'm going to check out the restaurant that Xinyi opens. ”

"Restaurants?" Mr. X looked up at her. Seeing that he seemed to be interested, Star Swirl asked, "Cantonese lo-mei, do you want to try it?" ”

"No, you can go yourself." Sure enough, this person still rejected her mercilessly.

Xinyi's restaurant is located on a food street in a busy area, and this one is full of shops, and there are long queues in front of almost every store. The name of Xinyi's store is "Goose Banquet", and it is obvious that it mainly sells braised goose meat.

Star Swirl walked around the queue and walked over to the clerk who issued the number and asked, "Is Sister Xinyi in the store?" ”

The clerk looked up at her a few times and said, "You are a friend of the boss, come with me." ”

Star Swirl followed her into the store, which was not very large, with only five round tables in the hall and three private rooms. The clerk led Star Swirl into one of the private rooms and said, "Sit down and see what you want to eat." She put the menu on the table and went out.

Star Swirl sits down to study the menu, goose wings, goose paws, foie gras, braised tofu, braised eggs, each of which looks appealing.

"Xuanyue, don't look at the menu, I'll directly ask someone to serve you a signature dish." Xinyi smiled and walked into the hallway.

Star Swirl closed the menu and smiled, "I didn't even line up, I'm getting your light, Sister Xinyi." ”

"You're welcome," Xinyi sat down next to Star Swirl, "I'll tell you whether the marinade tastes good or not depends on how well the brine is made." She suddenly smiled mysteriously, "The brine in our house is my husband, my husband's hard work." ”

"The secret ingredient, you said it before." Star Swirl nodded knowingly.

Xinran lowered his voice and said: "Yes, it's not an ordinary 'secret recipe', so there are a lot of repeat customers." Guaranteed, you'll be addicted after eating it once. Seeing the uncontrollable ecstasy on her face, Star Swirl suddenly felt that the atmosphere had become eerie.

"I can't wait to hear what you say." Star Swirl laughs.

"Then you have a good taste, I'll go and get busy first." Xinyi said and got up and went out.

A few minutes later, a tempting platter of lo-mei was served. The bright braised goose meat, tender and fluffy foie gras, paired with verdant choy sum and a small plate of aisaic sauce, look appetizing.

Star Swirl is about to put down her chopsticks, but is interrupted by the ringing of her phone.
