Chapter 202: The Flower of Evil and Hate (Part II)
Helena's middle-aged escort Rudia was pulled away by Neuer and Zod to drink on the other side, and only Xiao Yi and Helena were left in the private room.
Don't look at the lonely man and widow looking a little ambiguous, but they all know in their hearts that the 'main meal' that both sides are waiting for has not started yet, and now they are just eating some snacks to appetize and not take it seriously, which is also one of the reasons why the originally strong middle-aged man did not agree to leave Helena's side, but finally had to agree at Helena's insistence.
Because this meeting is, after all, an opportunity won by one's own side, and the main owners of both sides are very outstanding and outstanding figures, so they can't use some specious excuses to fool around, which is not only disrespectful to the other party, but also seems to be self-respecting. And since Xiao Yi has made a gesture to sit down and talk, then they also have to follow the rules and etiquette, Xiao Yi entertains guests alone, so it is a little abrupt for him to guard Helena's side again, and if he really talks about some key content or wants to reach some secret agreement, the situation where the third person is present is embarrassing.
And even if he had thought of an excuse that he had thought of a long time ago because he was not worried about Miss's safety, it was not suitable, because Xiao Yi had a conflict with Dilandar in the auction house and had a grudge because of it, he was not optimistic that Xiao Yi would have the ability to protect himself, so as a priesthood who could compete with the other party head-on, he happened to be an important bargaining chip for this meeting and negotiation.
Of course, he believed that Xiao Yi already knew this, after all, in his eyes, this was not too difficult to detect, and he himself did not deliberately hide his rank, but he had not publicized it too much.
And because of this, he always felt that Xiao Yi was a little pretending, and he couldn't even guarantee his own safety, and he was still acting like this, it was nothing more than pinching Miss to ask for you, if this kind of milky hairy boy who usually didn't dry up would never be in his eyes.
But since the existence of the two people who have just come in, Zode and Neuer, they no longer look down on Xiao Yi as before, one is a thief with the strength of the peak of the eighth order, and the weapon pinned to his waist is obviously an epic rare weapon that makes him a little blushing, and the other is a running hall shopkeeper on the surface, and his strength is slightly inferior, but he obviously has traces and wildness in the ranks, and combined with the decorations in this restaurant have used all kinds of precious materials, he has begun to face Xiao Yi's strength, and he has a faint feeling that the strength of his holy rank is really not a strange existence in the eyes of the other party, a man who can make such a strong and strong soldier do chores (which he seems to see) is not a simple role.
So he felt that he didn't have to worry too much about the safety of his own young lady in such a place, and naturally he didn't have to be as inseparable from Helena's side as outside, of course, these two goods came to hook up with him when he went out to drink, and the fiery aroma of the wine in the bottle he held when he went out to drink was also very exciting, plus the insistence of the young lady, okay, I will reluctantly accompany you.
Well...... This is also part of etiquette, of course, I will never admit that the style and boldness of the two of them are actually very appetizing to me!
While he and Neuer were feasting next door, Xiao Yi and Helena also started to eat.
"What a fragrant soup!" Helena praised.
"This is coconut milk soup, which is a flavor of a small place in my hometown, and I specially added Charthaney sauce on top to balance the rich flavor through sweet and sour taste, and peppermint oil and blue snail root can make the aftertaste more fragrant. Xiao Yi played the role of waiter, explaining the characteristics of the dishes and cooking methods for Helena.
"This one is delicious too!"
"Baked pumpkin with salted egg yolk is one of the must-order home dishes in most ladies in my hometown. ”
"This ...... Is it a crab?"
"That's right, I almost forgot that Miss must be very familiar with the flavor of seafood in the Canghai Empire! This is a fried crab cake with mango, arugula salad and guacamole cream sauce on top. ”
"There are very few people in my country who can make crabs so delicious, and Mr.'s cooking skills are simply amazing!"
"Don't dare to be, it's just a few carving insect skills, accounting for the unique light of the exotic local flavor, please taste how this black cod is done, it is my honor to get professional comments and guidance from a country like you." ”
"Sir, don't make fun of me, I'm just a greedy girl at best, how can I be professional! But then again, your black cod is the most delicious dish I've ever eaten in my life, the seasoning is perfect, and you cook it with the skin, it's crispy and delicious, and there's no fishy smell, and the lemon aroma is very good!"
"If you like it, how can you have food without dessert! Come, try this...... Almond peaches stuffed with sweet wine, and walnut cheese halva crisps......"
"I didn't expect that Mr. Xiao was not only amazing in his knowledge and alchemy, but also his cooking skills were so outstanding, it was simply breathtaking!" Rubbing her mouth gracefully, Helena temporarily stopped eating.
"Don't call me sir! I'm only in my early twenties this year, but I don't want to be called a serious old man, just call me by my name, or Xiao Yi!"
"Then don't call me Miss, call me Helen, that's what my friends called me when I was a child!"
"Yes, Helen!"
"Okay, Xiao Yi!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere seemed to be very harmonious, but the next communication between the two people was about to be too much to the topic, would that still be the case?
"It's rare Helen, do you think it's delicious and don't use some food anymore!" Although Helena didn't stop talking just now, it seemed that she hadn't eaten much, and there was a lot of food left on every plate.
"No, this is already very good! It's been a long time since I've eaten such exquisite and delicious dishes, and it's all thanks to you, thank you very much! ”
"Hehe, since it's delicious, let's eat more! The girls in our hometown are all hungry and thin, saying that they are for beauty, but in fact there is no need at all, should you also be worried about getting fat!" Xiao Yi teased.
"Oh, of course not! KnowledgeWhen I was a child, my grandfather always taught us to know how to stop in moderation about beautiful things, otherwise it is easy to succumb to desires and lose ourselves, and I have never dared to forget the teachings of the old man!"
"It seems that Ling Zu is an old man with great wisdom in life, look at Helen's current appearance and achievements, you know that he has taught you very well!"
"I wish I could still be taught like an ignorant child by his side, but unfortunately I don't have that opportunity anymore!" Helena said with a hint of sadness in her eyes.
"Are you looking forward to it as much as the chance to return to the palace?"
Xiao Yi's seemingly casual words, but listening to Helena's ears, it was like being struck by lightning, and she wanted to stand up and leave immediately, but she couldn't lift any strength because of the shock in her body.
