Chapter 51 Continue the preliminary competition (Part 1)
Everyone went to Peacock Building as planned.
Peacock Tower is located on a relatively quiet street, and there are several European-style buildings nearby. Its staggered steep lofts outline an elegant European style.
"This is a nearby Western restaurant, which is dedicated to serving Europeans. You can try something on your own." Since Mei Changtian and Li Mei are acquainted, Hu Zhenzhu certainly wants to eat and drink. Although she no longer cries, she keeps smiling but doesn't speak. As for Mei Changtian and Li Mei themselves, today is a happy day, but Fang Xin's performance surprised the two of them and didn't know what to say for a while, so Xia Yubing said and adjusted the atmosphere.
When we arrived at Peacock Building, the automatic door was open, and Ying Sheng bowed a little: "Are you five here to have a meal?"
After receiving the affirmative reply, Yingsheng said, "Please come with me."
The Peacock Tower is decorated like a crystal palace, but it divides the space with famous works and famous paintings. In the hall, there is a Chinese classical band playing. From time to time, experts are willing to try their skills, and guests can also choose one or two.
When Ying Sheng led the five to the second floor, he also used a screen to isolate them. When he entered, he quickly arranged a seat for the five people. That was to sit in a small hidden box on the second floor, sitting on a soft and hand-embroidered blanket with elegant patterns.
"Does there be a daughter red?" He handed over the menu to Mei Changtian. Fang Xin asked the waiter that the so-called daughter red is essentially a kind of rice wine, but there are mixed with Polygonatum, jujube kernel, kudzu root, jujube, wolfberry and other things, which are really buried in the top and stored (there are also different depending on the place where they are buried). It is said that the top quality is golden in color and has a strong aroma.
"Yes, how many years do you have to wait?"
"Forget it, just take the best one for 17 years!" Fang Xin decided without asking the price, so he decided to get married and drink his daughter's red. Although he did not have a notarized marriage, Hou Tu's family was a marriage in Fang Xin's opinion.
"How can you be so embarrassed?" Mei Changtian said quickly.
"Don't say anything today. Life is a rare thing. I invited you at noon and celebrate yourself in the evening. I won't participate. I will have a competition in the afternoon."
"Compet? Fang Xin, do you want to compete?" Hu Zhenzhu also asked in order to divert her embarrassment.
"I represent An Yijing Club in Qingteng Cup kendo competition. I play ten games a day, starting at 1:30 in the afternoon, so I can't stay for a long time!"
"Oh, you are the seed player on behalf of An Yijing Club?"
"Yeah, it's not yet, it's just a fight."
At this time, Li Mei was still studying the recipe, but Mei Changtian understood that he took it from his wife with a smile and ordered it. The price of the dish is not important, the key is the taste. Do not order dishes that you don’t know the taste of, you should know that there are many dishes, some of which tastes relatively strange, and it will be embarrassing if you order strangely. It is better to order familiar home-cooked.
He ordered three fresh ducks and two seaweed shrimp rolls, and gave them to Xia Yubing. Xia Yubing took them and ordered Yongnan fish soup. Hu Zhenzhu snorted coldly. She was unhappy today. He ordered six fried chicken nuggets, Huadiao tofu, Sanxiang steamed chicken, Shaliang fish, and then ordered crystal cakes. Fang Xin ordered meat and bone soup directly and the refreshing Jade Sanxian soup.
But there was no need to go here. There was a connection on the order menu. After clicking for sure, it was automatically transmitted to the kitchen and counter center. Sure enough, within a few minutes, another Yingsheng pushed the silver cart in. The two of them served the dishes and served the wine.
"We don't need to wait." After the release, Fang Xin said, he had a bad habit, that was, he didn't like someone waiting near him while eating.
Many people have this habit, so they quit after Ying Sheng bowed.
When they went out, Hu Zhenzhu took out her chopsticks and said, "Eat everyone, I'm already hungry."
As she said that, she picked up a chicken nugget. After taking a sip, she smiled: "It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it's really good. It seems that this wine is well-known."
Fang Xin personally poured wine for everyone, and the rest was half a cup, while Mei Changtian and Li Mei had two cups full, and said, "Today I will only drink this one, you two should drink it, I won't care about the others."
Xia Yubing picked up the cup, but Hu Zhenzhu refused to pick up the wine glass. She lifted up the porcelain spoon instead, took a spoon of it from the bone soup, and said, "You drink it, I won't drink it anymore. I don't like drinking."
Everyone had no choice but to drink it after touching it, but they did not persuade them again.
The taste was indeed very good and it was like drinking, so slowly, everyone was happy. Li Mei was really happy and let go. Fang Xin, Xia Yubing, and Mei Changtian were also smiling constantly, but although Hu Zhenzhu had a smile on her face, she was just a cup of red, and she refused to drink half of the sip. Even if Li Mei drank too much and asked her to drink, she still didn't drink it. It just seemed that her appetite seemed to be very good and she ate a lot.
Fortunately, the food was extremely rich at this time, not like on Earth, only a little dish in a pot. Now it is very full. Even if you eat it, you still haven't finished it... but you have satisfied the task of eliminating two-thirds, which is not a waste.
We started eating at 11 o'clock until 12:50. If Fang Xin wasn't about to reach the competition time, we could have had half an hour. Finally, Fang Xin checked out the card, and three girls and two boys walked out of the restaurant entrance.
"Meimei and I are back, and we still need to prepare at home!" Mei Changtian said, "Actually, I want to invite everyone to my house. I wonder if you have time."
"I'm really sorry, Zhenzhu and I are going back to school. We are both members of the student union and we have to do a lot of things!" Xia Yubing said first.
"I'll have a game in the afternoon and I still have some things to deal with, so I won't come." Fang Xin said casually.
In fact, Fang Xin felt that Mei Changtian was just talking, and Fang Xin would forget it. If Hu Zhenzhu went again, his expression would be wonderful. Now both of them found a step for him. At that moment, they smiled and said, "It's such a regret. Then let's contact us again in the future. We will say goodbye first."
"Yes" all four of them answered.
Li Mei drank a little too much, so Mei Changtian carefully helped her get into the car, signaled her to leave. After leaving, Hu Zhenzhu's smile suddenly solidified. She seemed a little tired and stood on the railings of the street.
"It doesn't matter?"
"It doesn't matter, maybe you can leave after eating too much, let's just go for a walk on the street." Xia Yubing said.
"Okay, then I'll say goodbye." It was better for them to leave the wound licking to themselves. Although they drank some wine, Fang Xin was still very sober. After telling the address, the car drove forward.
It was only fifteen minutes later. After arriving at the community, getting off the car and paying for the card, Fang Xin's drunkenness disappeared at this time. He went upstairs, took off his clothes in a hurry, and entered the nutrition warehouse. His eyes turned dark and lit up again, and he came to the preparatory scene of the game. At this time, there were still fifteen minutes left before the game began.
"Mr. Fang, are you already online?" As soon as it was launched, there was a message labeled An Yijing Society, but the number and voice were unfamiliar.
"Yes, I am, you?"
"Sorry, I am Zhou Huayu, the headquarters of An Yijing Society." There is also something similar to a business card that comes with the text message. Well, he is the deputy general manager and one of the shareholders of An Yijing Society. This surprised Fang Xin a little. It was the next day, the first day of school, and such a person was looking for him.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou, what are you doing with me?" Fang Xin asked simply, as he was exercising the activities of the data-based human body to show rapid adaptation.
"Ms. Zhang Wenxiang from the project department reported to me yesterday that you have broken through the fourth level. Although it is very rude to ask this question, have you indeed broken through? Have you ever gone to a special dojo for verification?"
"If the fourth level you are talking about is just a swordsmanship, then I will answer you, yes!" Fang Xin replied: "As for verification, I don't have it, but I won't tell you such a lie."
Speaking of this, Fang Xin was a little unhappy.
"It's really rude, but this matter is very important. If you want, I will fly over tomorrow and meet you. How about it?" The matter of the sixteen-year-old fourth-level swordsman is really important and I have to be careful.
"Oh tomorrow, it's fine, but when my competition is over tomorrow, you can come to me again. My address, you are in the local Anyijing Club, you should have information. The competition is about to begin, so let's say goodbye first!" Fang Xin said casually, without any interest in greeting him or even seeing him on the other hand.
"Okay, I won't disturb you now." The other party tactfully closed the information, and Fang Xin then put him aside. The desireless person is tough. The other party's identity and status have little meaning, unless the other party threatens his physical safety.
The kendo competition was scheduled. Fang Xin chose to play a continuous competition this time. The process of the competition was unstoppable and did not meet experts like the first day. The time was even faster than last time. He scored the opponent in two minutes on average. This time, he still won ten consecutive games and was ranked sixth in the country. Since there were also winners among the opponent, the points were as high as 233.8 points in both yesterday and rewards!
Fang Xin did not have any way of this after winning. He knew that with the end of the newcomer group stage, he would meet many experts who could be promoted to the next level of the newcomer knockout round and the mid-season selection knockout round.
Chapter completed!
