Chapter 186: Ultimate Death
When I came back, I had already made a few dishes.
I happened to be hungry, so I was not polite, so after a few pleasantries, I grabbed the braised prawns and ate them.
"It's so fragrant, the chef here is not bad!" Aqin said while eating.
"The braised prawns in oil are very authentic, the butter is just right, there is no moisture, and the black pepper has all penetrated in." I nodded.
"Brother Qian, do you still understand this?" Han Bing asked.
"I don't understand." I looked at her and smiled.
"What is butter? Yellow oil? Xiao Yong asked.
"Butter, fool...... I don't understand this, it's a must-have for Western restaurants. Qin laughed at him.
"It is processed from milk, stir the fresh milk, and then filter out part of the water from the thick object on the top, you can process butter, which is mainly used as a seasoning for Western food, which is very nutritious, but the fat content is very high, and you will gain weight if you eat too much...... I said to Xiaoyong with a smile.
"No wonder, we Chinese, rarely use these things. All I know is peanut oil, olive oil, and ......," Xiao Yonghan smiled.
"Making this prawn is very hot. The material must be fresh, it is best to just buy the shrimp alive, then open the edge, take out the shrimp intestines, it is best to salt it, dry the water, and then you can fry or stew. I said as I broke the shrimp.
"Brother Qian, you are a top student in economics, how can you know so much, you can also do martial arts, teach a few thieves by yourself, and you can get away with your whole body, it's amazing!" Xiao Yong sighed heartily.
I looked at him with a smile and didn't answer.
Xiao Yong's face is very good, the dark complexion of a few years ago is gone, this young man, after such suffering, can finally live a happy life...... Thinking about their situation at the time, it was really embarrassing, and it was also bitter for Aqin...... Now that I finally have a lover who is finally married, Ah Qin is also a blessing for her to be able to find a husband like him, and I am also relieved......
Xiao Yong saw that I had been looking at him, so he poured me a cup of tea with a little embarrassment.
"Come, let's replace wine with tea, toast Brother Qian, and sincerely thank him for saving his life!" Xiao Yong proposed.
Ah Qin and Han Bing also raised their teacups.
Han Bing looked at me gratefully and poured me another full cup of tea.
"Brother Qian, can you tell us how you taught those thieves a lesson just now?" Ah Qin asked with a smile.
This ghost girl is entangled, and her personality is still the same as before.
"It's like in the movies. I'll tell you later...... "I bowed my head and ate."
"Brother Qian, where are you from? How did you get here...... You also have a stunt, I think you are really a mysterious character, and you look so handsome, did you make movies before? Then fall into the mortal world......" Ah Qin broke the casserole and asked to the end.
"Oh, let Brother Qian eat something, Ah Qin, do you check your account?" Han Bing said with a smile.
"Oh yes, Miss Han, you said you had something to discuss with me, what is it?" I looked up.
"Eat first, we'll talk later." Han Bing gave me vegetables.
"She, I want you to be her bodyguard!" Ah Qin blurted out.
"Huh?" I looked at Han Bing, what a beautiful and moving woman, alas, it's a pity...... So many tragic things have happened.
"yes...... Brother Qian, that's what I mean, a lot of things have happened recently, and I also feel that I need to have a full-time person to drive for me and help me. Yesterday, when I saw that you were so good, I had this idea, I don't know...... Would you like to? Han Bing looked at me expectantly.
"Let me think about it, can I?" I smiled.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about the salary." Han Bing nodded.
"Brother Qian, you can really think about it. However, you are a top student at a prestigious university, majoring in economics, and it is indeed a waste of your professional knowledge......," Xiaoyong said.
"I'll go back and think about it." I took a sip of tea.
"I'm going to do this, I'm really up to you! Brother Qian, think about it. Han Bing poured me tea and said with a smile.
"Don't you watch movies? Hollywood's classic "Bodyguard" is really good-looking...... Bodyguards are good errands, Brother Qian, especially to be the bodyguard of our big beauty! Qin laughed.
"Still, you...... I can't like my sister-in-law, she's a famous flower...... "Ah Qin continued.
"Aqin, you girl...... Don't talk nonsense. We're getting down to business. Han Bing shouted at her.
"Okay, okay, what's the joke...... Sister-in-law, don't mind. Brother Qian, don't mind, I like to joke with this mouth, and I learned it from Xiaoyong. Qin laughed.
"Yo...... It's all pushed to me, it's going to be fast. However, I'm used to it, anyway...... I've always been a recycle bin. Xiao Yong glared at her.
"Hee-hee-hee. Oh yes, we actually watched a movie at home last night, and it moved me so much......" Ah Qin continued.
"What movie?" Han Bing asked.
"A cartoon." Ah Qin replied.
"The cartoon still moved you like that, it's really childlike." Han Bing chuckled.
"It's very good, it's called "Dream Travel". One of the most interesting things about the Day of the Dead is that Mexicans believe that the deceased are still alive in their spirits and will return to earth during the Day of the Dead to be reunited with them. Aqin said.
"Day of the Dead?" Han Bing asked.
"It should be a traditional festival handed down by the Paleo-Indians in Latin America." I said.
"Brother Qian, do you know too?" Aqin asked.
"I used to read books...... Seen. I nodded.
"This festival, they will be very cheerful, singing and dancing to celebrate, without a trace of sadness...... They carried sacrificial offerings—water, food, family photographs, and candles lit for each deceased soul after a long journey. If one of the deceased members of the family is a child, small toys can also be found on the altar...... All in all, a fun festival. Xiao Yong also said.
"Uh-huh...... What touched me the most was that for the first time I learned about the traditional belief that we will experience three deaths. The first time is when our heart stops beating and life ends; The second time is when we are cremated and no one can see us again; And the ultimate death is...... There is no one alive in the world, and those who once knew us still remember us. Ah Qin put his hands on his cheeks and said softly.
"Ultimate death?" Han Bing asked suddenly.
"Yes, if you pass away, and no one in the world still remembers you, it will be the ultimate death, and you ......will be wiped out," Aqin replied.
Han Bing listened and fell into deep thought.
I saw that her eyes were full of melancholy.
The ultimate death? In fact, how can I not be like this, the real self has been replaced by others, my parents, wife and daughter, relatives and friends, the person I am thinking about is no longer me...... I have completely changed my face, I have become an outlier, I don't have any identity anymore, except for Dr. Liu, no one in the world knows about me, no one really cares about me, misses me Gao Yue, alas...... Isn't this a kind of ultimate death?!
I felt a pang of pain in my heart and turned my head to look out the window at the city.
The revolving restaurant was moving slowly, but it was not felt at all while sitting. The night outside the window is very poignant, and all kinds of dazzling lights are clearly extinguished, just under the nose, but they can't give people a trace of warmth and happiness.
