Net Match-The Spring of the Substitute

Chapter 27 The Temperature of 1 Bowl of Steam Pot Chicken

Xu Mu led them through several old alleys, and found a small restaurant in a not-so-bustling area.The restaurant is not big, but the business is good. The small tables are full of people in twos and threes, with steaming food on the tables. The proprietress warmly greets them and asks them to go to the second floor to use the big table.

When Xu Mu ordered food downstairs and went upstairs, a group of people were listening attentively to what Concubine Jiao You said, and Qin Xiao next to him was drinking tea with a calm expression on his face.

Concubine Jiao You had already been informed of Qin Xiao's identity by Wei Shuihan on the way here. She, who has been a loyal fan for many years, didn't believe it at first: "Ahaha, how is that possible? I'm sure I'll recognize Zeling's loud voice immediately. It's not like that little brother at all."

It wasn't until Qin Xiao played "Big Transformation" in front of her and uttered a sentence in the voice of Zeling's most famous romantic son, that Concubine Jiao accepted the fact in shock.

She completed the whole process from ecstasy to galloping to crying to explosion in just a few minutes, and then calmed down instantly, insisting that she would show in front of her idol that she is a girl who "only listens to songs, only listens to dramas, and never violates three times." The high quality of loyal fans of "meta privacy".

Qin Xiao nodded: "Well, this sentence is quite good."

"Thank you, Boss!" Jiao Youfei almost couldn't hold back her desire to salute him, "I promise that I will keep everything that happened today to myself!"

joke!How can my young master's prosperous and beautiful face be seen by those selfish girlfriend fans on the Internet?

After seeing Zeling's real face, Concubine Jiao expressed 12 points of understanding and support for her boss's decision to not show his face for so many years.

Qin Xiao opened an empty chair for Xu Mu. He thanked Xu Mu and sat down, and at the same time heard Wei Shuihan asked impatiently: "And then? What happened to the domineering president? According to the normal development of the plot, he should give Your little boss is right to send 99 roses!"

Xu Mu was drinking tea, he couldn't hold back what she said, and almost spit it out.

"Ah, cough, cough, cough..." Xu Mu tried his best to not spit out the tea, and choked it all down his throat. At this moment, he could only lower his head and cough violently. .

Qin Xiao caressed his back and patted him back and forth to help him calm down, Jiao Youfei also looked worried, but the focus of her worry was obviously a bit off: "Mr. Xu, you won't fire me because of this matter, right? "

Xu Mu waved his hand at her angrily.

Jiao Youfei met her idol unexpectedly and was able to eat at the same table with her idol. She was too excited for a while and couldn't control her desire to break the news. At this moment, she reflected sincerely: "Mr. Xu, I'm sorry, this is Your privacy, I shouldn't say it."

Lord Grim, who was enjoying listening to it, sighed regretfully: "Talking half of the story is simply a tantalizing..."

Dong Tiantian invited very enthusiastically: "Let's have a private chat in the group at night, private chat."

Xu Mu: "..."

Lord Grim with tall legs, long legs, and the emperor's attacking voice, why do you have the same taste as these silly white sweets?

Xu Mu was speechless. Seeing Qin Xiao's expression of "it's none of his business, hang it high", he had no choice but to put on a secretive expression as well.

Then silently order a song "I will turn a blind eye to what should cooperate with your performance" in my heart.

The dishes came to the table one after another, and the tangy aroma quickly drew out the gluttons that had been lurking in the stomach for a long time, and successfully covered the previous topic.What Xu Mu ordered were all home-cooked dishes, and the materials used in the small restaurant were also very particular, such as scrambled eggs with Chinese toon, cold preserved egg tofu, dry fried small yellow croaker, short ribs with honey sauce, braised prawns in oil, grass head circles, each dish Each taste is delicious in its own way. For a while, everyone stopped talking and concentrated on eating.

The next dish was served, Ye Mian looked at the strangely shaped casserole in front of him, and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Steam Pot Chicken." Xu Mu smiled and explained to him, "This is a famous dish in Yunnan. It looks like soup, but it is actually a steamed dish."

"This dish is actually very simple to make. You only need to wash and cut the chicken into pieces, add green onions, ginger, grass fruit, and cooking wine, and don't need any other condiments. But the beauty of the steam pot chicken lies in this pot. Put clear water in the soup pot. After the water boils, steam will seep in from the mouth in the middle of the steam pot, and slowly steam the chicken. Therefore, the soup inside can retain the original deliciousness, and the chicken is extraordinarily tender and tender. juice."

When the casserole turned around on the table and stopped in front of him, Xu Mu stretched out his slender hand with well-articulated bones, motioned for Qin Xiao to pass the bowl over, held a soup spoon for him, and handed it to him thoughtfully Then it was finally my turn.

Crowd: ...

Qin Xiao, stop laughing!If you keep laughing, the corners of your mouth will be grinning to the sky!

Xu Mu, who lowered his head and sipped the soup, hadn't thought of so much at all.He was an older brother at home, and he was used to taking care of others since he was a child. Even if he was out with friends, the habit had already been infiltrated into his bone marrow over the years, and he always subconsciously wanted to take care of his younger companions.

Boss Qin, who has hundreds of millions of dollars every minute, still doesn't know that Xu Mu's special care for him is only because he treats him like a younger brother.

Oh, what a pity.

After dinner, it was a rare trip to City S. Everyone wanted to go shopping in the famous local commercial street, so Xu Mu naturally wanted to accompany them.After paying the bill, the proprietress dragged him to talk a few words, and insisted on giving him a bag of quick-frozen wontons wrapped by herself, and asked him to go back to eat.Xu Mu evaded a few words, but he couldn't refuse others' wishes, so he accepted it with a smile.

Qin Xiao was waiting for him at the door, and saw him talking to the proprietress for a long time from a distance, looking like an old acquaintance.Seeing his somewhat surprised expression, Xu Mu explained with a smile: "I used to live near here when I first came to S city. At that time, I was weak, and I wanted to make a name for myself, so I often worked overtime. It was very late, on the way back from work, the surrounding restaurants were basically closed, only this small restaurant was still open, and I often asked the proprietress for a bowl of hot wontons."

"She said that she always thought of her own son when she saw me. He was about the same age as me, and he was working alone in a big city. He didn't see me a few times a year. Seeing me, he couldn't help feeling emotional. Every time I came I would chat for a few words, and I became acquainted with those who came and went, but then I changed to a lighter job and didn’t live near here anymore, so I haven’t seen her for a long time, and I didn’t expect that she still remembered me.”

He blinked, pulled his thoughts back to reality, and said with emotion: "Thinking about it, it was five or six years ago, time flies so fast."

Qin Xiao stared at him blankly: "Have you come to City S so early?"

"I came here after graduating from university." Xu Mu rubbed his sleepy eyes, and looked at him with a handsome face full of student spirit. She said softly, "Although I look childish... In fact, after my birthday this year, I will be 27."

Qin Xiao looked down at him and murmured, "I'm actually two years younger than you."

"It's about the same as I thought." Xu Mu didn't seem too surprised, but there was a little more admiration in his eyes, "You can become a bully at such a young age...it's amazing to be a company executive."

Qin Xiao was silent for a while, Xu Mu thought he was being modest, but in fact he was at war with heaven and man in his heart.

He thought for a while that he was "talking nonsense" in the elevator. He thought Xu Mu was a young intern who had just stepped into society, but he didn't expect to be his senior. He was so ashamed that he couldn't lift his head.

After a while, he remembered the whole day today and the scenes of how he teased him in the past. He thought Xu Mu was shy, but now he realized that the other party might have a kind mentality of "playing house with him", and felt more and more My heart turned cold.

But looking at Xu Mu's clear eyes, he couldn't help but think, how can a person who has been in the society alone for so many years still have such clean eyes?How can a person who has been in the secular world and is used to seeing the cruelty of the world retain such a kind heart?

He remembered that someone had described his voice as "gentle as jade", but now that Xu Mu was standing in front of him, he knew what it means to have a human voice.

A gentleman is like jade, shining brightly inside——

Teach him how to stop daydreaming.
