Chapter 17: Cooking Like a Practice (2)
The more simple and common the dish, the more it reflects the level of a chef.
As soon as the egg fried rice with clear grains and golden colors was presented on the table, Gu Zhi understood the intention of Dai Bei, and at the same time, looking at the white face wearing a tall chef's hat in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Although he had already learned that she was the winner of the food contest that day, it was not until he saw it with his own eyes today that he truly believed that she who could burn down the kitchen when cooking was the same person as the one in front of him, who was proficient in cooking.
"Why do you want to cook?"
Hearing the question, Dai Zhicha was placing a small bowl with a spoonful of egg fried rice in front of him.
She raised her eyes, as if remembering a beautiful picture, her eyes were reminiscent and distant, and the corners of her lips were curved with a faint smile: "Someone once told me that cooking is like a practice, which can make people's hearts become peaceful. ”
Hearing this, Gu Zhen's thoughts were in a trance, and memories rushed to his mind.
"Hey, tell me, what's the secret? You look like a young master who doesn't touch the spring water with five fingers, why do you have to catch up with the chef in the restaurant when you make the meals? She was chewing on the meat in her mouth, and she was still holding the balls in her hand, and her cheeks were bulging.
He affectionately reached out to help her wipe the sauce from her lips: "Actually, cooking is similar to practice, which can make people's hearts inexplicably become peaceful. ”
She let out an enlightened "oh", rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "No wonder you can stay quietly and read for hours without moving, it turns out that you are meditating." ”
He shook his head half amusementously and half helplessly: "People like you who always can't sit still, you might as well go down to the kitchen more and calm down." ”
"Phew! Don't try to transform me into a good lady, let me shave my head and become a nun faster! She hooked his chin like a hooligan, and smiled brightly in her eyes: "Just have one in the family who can cook." ”
……
"I just want to see if this method can really bring peace to my heart."
Her soft voice made Gu Zhen withdraw from her memories, but she saw that the faint smile on the corner of her lips had turned into a faint self-deprecation.
"So...... Does it work? His eyes fell deep into her face, and his voice was hoarse.
Dai waited to look at him in silence.
Since learning to cook, her temperament is indeed calmer than before, but, Anning? Is she really at peace inside? If so, what is she hating now?
A few seconds later, she lowered her eyelids, raised her eyes again, and returned with an official polite smile: "Mr. Gu, the egg fried rice is cold." ”
Gu Zhi's brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes flashed.
The results of the inspection were unanimously approved, the so-called "meeting" finally ended, and Dai Bei's hanging heart also fell peacefully.
searched for Gu Zhi's figure, but found no trace of him. Instead, Matthew walked over and stretched out his hand to her: "Miss Dai, welcome to be one of us." ”
"Thank you, Assistant Ma." Dai waited to shake it back, "If nothing else, I want to go first." ”
"Okay, Miss Dai, please. We will contact you again for follow-up. ”
After a little hesitation, Dai Zhi didn't ask him where Gu Zhi was, and after saying hello, he left in a hurry.
After first going to pick up the birthday gift and the meeting gift for other elders, Dai drove to the Wuhuan Bay Hotel where the birthday banquet was held, and just parked the car in the underground parking lot, Du Ziteng's phone called: "Why haven't you come yet?" You won't back down, will you? ”
"Do you think I'm your untrustworthy pigeon?" Dai Zhi rolled his eyes sharply in his heart, "It's here, go up immediately!" ”
After speaking, she immediately cut off the phone, not wanting to listen to his dog's mouth fart at all.
The elevator went up from B2 in the underground parking lot, paused to the first floor, the elevator door opened, and two people were about to go inside, and they were meeting Dai Bei, and the three of them were stunned.
