C2395 Hotpot
Li Hongdou, Zhu Yandan, Luo Mengmeng and Zhang Lu'er laid on the bed for half the night. When they woke up in the morning, their expressions were still not good. They had breakfast. Each and every one of them went back to sleep to replenish their spirits until Dongfang Qingyu came over. It was already around 11 o'clock when the four of them were woken up.
Dongfang Qingyu proposed to treat them to a meal, apologize to the four of them, and bring the four of them online to earn Battle Achievement Value. In the end, they did not earn much from Battle Achievement Value. Instead, it caused the four of them to drop by two levels. Although the four of them did not blame Dongfang Qingyu for using the 'Super Forbidden Spell', unless a Divine Immortal descended to the mortal world, no one would be able to do anything about it.
However, Dongfang Qingyu didn't think that way. He felt that these were all his responsibilities. He had promised to bring some people along, and it was his responsibility to ensure their rank. That was why he had taken the risk of letting Lin Miaoyu guard the empty room alone.
"Let's eat hotpot!" Zhang Lu Er did not even think about it. On the first night that they had arrived at Chongqing, zhu Yan Dan was going to bring the two of them to eat hotpot. However... Because something happened at Wang Shunxiu's side, the hotpot wasn't full. He casually ordered fast food to deal with a meal. After that, there were more things to do, so he didn't have time to eat.
"What about you guys?" Dongfang Qingyu looked at the other three.
"I'm fine." Li Hongdou said.
"I also want to eat hotpot!" Luo Mengmeng said.
"I'm fine. I can eat anything!" She didn't know if it was because she was too old or because of her identity. Zhu Yan Dan never dared to face Dongfang Qingyu. Every time she saw his gaze, she would look at him. She couldn't help but look down.
"Alright, then let's have hotpot. Teacher Zhu, you are the local snake. Which hotpot is more authentic? Lead the way!" Dongfang Qingyu asked. Zhu Yan Dan pushed forward Old Li Hot Pot.
Old Li Hot Pot was not the most famous, nor was it the largest. It was one of the few hotpot restaurants that had been passed down for the longest time. It was now the third generation. The first generation old man was still there, which was Old Li. He was already eighty-eight years old, but his body was still strong. Would he come to the restaurant to take a look? If the details were wrong, or if they were not done properly, he would immediately order for improvement, because Old Li had a strict control over quality. That was why Old Li Hot Pot tasted the same every few decades.
Many old customers from other provinces came all the way here just to eat the taste of an childhood meal.
In Old Li's era, Old Li Hot Pot only had a small shop. At most, it could only accommodate 12 tables at a time. When Old Li passed it on to his son, the shop was renovated and expanded by several times. It could accommodate 30 tables at the same time. When the inheritance was passed down to his grandson, it was expanded once again. Now, it could accommodate 100 tables of customers at the same time.
However, under normal circumstances, Old Li Hotpot only opened 99 tables. This was what Old Li said. It couldn't be too full. If it wasn't a rich family, they wouldn't be able to enjoy 100 tables of food.
To be honest, the persistence of the older generation was still the most simple and honest. People nowadays were too impetuous.
As soon as he walked into Old Li Hot Pot, there was immediately a strong smell of hot pot. The heat collided with the air conditioner's cold air. It made people feel comfortable and at the same time, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"It's so good to have air conditioners!" Luo Mengmeng was slightly plump and was afraid of the heat the most. The parking lot was less than 30 meters away from the entrance of Old Li Hotpot. Beads of sweat had already formed on her forehead.
The five of them had originally planned to order a private room, but unfortunately... The business of Old Li Hot Pot was too good. The private rooms had to be booked two or three days in advance. If they were to come at the last minute, they would be able to stay in the main hall. Finding a seat usually depended on luck.
They could be considered to have arrived early. If they came over after 12 o'clock, they basically wouldn't be able to find a place.
The waiters were all young ladies. Most of them were high school students or university students. Some of the students were from other places and came here to study. They usually did not return home during holidays or weekends. Thus, they came here as temp workers, and after two days, they earned about 400 yuan. It was not possible to make a fortune, but the living expenses were enough.
The young lady led Dongfang Qingyu and the others to a triangular table and sat them down. It was a triangular table. This was the first time Dongfang Qingyu had seen one, but it was indeed convenient to listen to. The square table and round table were large, but because of their size, sometimes, one had to stand up to pick up the food. Otherwise, if one could not pick up the food, the triangular table would not have this problem.
Dongfang Qingyu was still looking forward to someone coming to his table. Who knew? He was thinking too much. Li Hongdou and Zhu Yandan were sitting on the same stool. A long stool was perfect for two people. Luo Mengmeng and Zhang Lu Er sat on one side. Dongfang Qingyu suddenly realized that it was not a good thing to have too many women. They were trying to fight him together.
"Do you eat spicy food?" Dongfang Qingyu picked up the menu. It was a thick one with all kinds of ingredients. He did not know how much money he had given the photography company. Every picture was beautiful, and it was very appetizing to look at it.
Li Hongdou, Zhang Lu Er, and Zhu Yan Dan all expressed that they could eat spicy food. Luo Mengmeng hesitated.
"Then the mandarin duck pot." Dongfang Qingyu handed the menu to Zhang Lu Er and said, "You can order some! I only want three, sweet potato, seaweed, and radish."
"They are all vegetarian. Didn't Hongdou say that you are not happy when you have no meat?" Luo Mengmeng looked at him curiously.
"Recently, I have eaten a little too much meat. I need to eat some vegetarian food. Pressure it." Dongfang Qingyu said. The moment he said that, the faces of the four women all turned red.
Eating four meals a day, how could it not be a lot?
"Be serious." Li Hongdou gave him a sideways glance, but she also knew that from the moment the relationship started, Dongfang Qingyu no longer had that kind of respect for her.
After being in the same bed, she felt that she could not be strict with Dongfang Qingyu anymore.
"You can order whatever you like. It's rare for you to eat it. Don't worry about it. Teacher Zhu will pay for it anyway." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Why is Teacher Zhu paying for it?" Zhang Lu'er took a pen and happily hooked it. When she heard him, she raised her head.
"Didn't Teacher Zhu owe you guys a meal? Now it's just the right time to make up for it." Dongfang Qingyu said as if it was a matter of course.
"That's because you owe us. What does that have to do with you?" Zhang Lu Er said.
"I'm a family member" Dongfang Qingyu said confidently.
... "" Zhang Lu Er really wanted to ask whose family you were, but she couldn't. She was afraid that Dongfang Qingyu would say they were your family, so she handed the menu to Luo Mengmeng. "Order some!"
"I don't know how to order, Teacher Zhu." Luo Mengmeng transferred the menu to Zhu Yan Dan.
"It's not that I'm afraid of washing the dishes, but my taste is very complicated. I'll eat anything. Hongdou, come." Zhu Yan Dan gave the menu to Li Hongdou.
"It's not even teacher's turn to wash dishes. Someone is strong and strong. It's just right to use it to wash the plates." In terms of eating, Li Hongdou was still the best at it. She ordered the dishes. To be able to take care of everyone's taste, the most important thing was that some of them looked delicious. In fact, it was basically impossible for her to be fooled by the disgusting food.
"Let's start with these first. If it's not enough, we'll add more." Li Hongdou handed the menu to the waitress and asked the others, "What do you want to drink? Drink or wine?"
"White wine!" Zhu Yan Dan said.
"Beer!" Luo Mengmeng said.
"Red wine!" Zhang Lu Er said.
The three women spoke almost at the same time. Everyone had different tastes. Dongfang Qingyu drank the tea and almost spat it out. Eating hotpot and white wine was one thing, but there was actually red wine. This thing, did it have anything to do with hotpot?
The waitress opened her mouth cutely. Obviously, she had never seen such an unusual customer before.
"Qingyu, you decide the wine!" Li Hongdou handed the decision to Dongfang Qingyu.
"Beer, iced. One box first, and then any soybean milk? Three bottles. It's also ice." Dongfang Qingyu looked at the waitress.
"Yes!" The waitress nodded affirmatively.
"Let's do this first. I'll trouble you again if there's anything else!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Okay, please wait a moment!" The waitress left.
"Who drinks soybean milk? None of us like soybean milk." Zhang Lu Er asked Dongfang Qingyu.
"I drink!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"You?" Zhang Lu Er wanted to laugh, "Why?"
"I'm afraid of getting drunk." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Why?" Luo Mengmeng looked at him strangely.
"Professor Li often taught me not to drink during the day. It's easy to mess up." Dongfang Qingyu said.
... "" Luo Mengmeng almost choked.
... "" Li Hongdou stared at him.
... "Great God, I used to worship you." Zhang Lu'er said. Zhu Yan Dan blushed and didn't say anything. She picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The hotpot restaurant was not like a restaurant and it was very fast. They didn't even have a few words to say. I have the hotpot, the ingredients, and so on. The soybean milk and beer were also served. In the past, hotpot was gas, but because gas was more dangerous, after a few accidents, it was time to use electricity. It was convenient to adjust the size to maximize the firepower for two to three minutes. The hot pot was ready.
First, he put the difficult to cook radishes, sweet potatoes, and so on into the soup. Then, he took out all kinds of dishes that were easy to cook. Teacher Zhu liked to eat mutton rolls, so he took them out in about ten seconds in the soup.
Luo Mengmeng liked to eat bean sprouts and yellow bean sprouts. Zhang Lu liked to eat prawns, while Li Hongdou ate more miscellaneous things. She ate a little bit of everything and was very elegant. Dongfang Qingyu was different. He ate whatever he cooked.
The four women drank beer while he drank soy milk alone. He did not feel embarrassed at all. When Luo Mengmeng saw Dongfang Qingyu drink soybean milk, she smiled with a smile. She had a feeling that he was up to no good.
Although the air conditioner was turned on, after two cups, the four women's faces turned red. It was a little spicy, and most of it was hot. Even the iced beer couldn't be suppressed.
When it was hot, it was inevitable to unbutton the buttons. Dongfang Qingyu was waiting for this moment. He sat up straight and lifted the cup as a cover. He stared at the four girls unblinkingly. Li Hongdou was very ladylike. She never unbutton her buttons or take off her clothes in public places. Zhu Yan Dan was wary of the presence of a man and did not dare to move. Zhang Lu'Er did not think too much about it. She held the chopsticks in her right hand. She was still eating, so she touched her collar with her left hand. The button was unbutton. It was so fast that it made people feel as if fireworks were dancing around them. In the next second, Dongfang Qingyu's eyes were wide open.
It was a big piece of snow...
