Chapter 176: Show Your Love in Front of Your First Love
Ye Hongtao responded carefully to the embarrassing situation in front of him, not only to please Tao Jiujiu, not to make her feel that she was neglected, but also to take care of Muhuan, so that she would not feel like they deliberately showed their love. Therefore, he is not good at saying one more thing now, nor is he good at saying one less thing.
Objectively speaking, this kind of emotional psychological tactic is really hard to fight. The weather in early winter is so cold, and others are trembling with coldness, and he is sweating all over.
The waiter served a main dish called "The North Wind Blows the Geese and Snow" and the raw materials are flat fish. Some places call them geese fish. The fish are sprinkled with white onions, which look very beautiful and smell even more delicious.
When Tao Jiujiu saw this dish, she couldn't help but move her index finger. After finding Mu Wujiu unmoved, she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Emily, flat fish is a delicious food. It should be said to be the best among pomfrets. Some places call it 'swallow fish', but why are you not interested?"
"She doesn't eat sea fish." Ye Hongtao didn't know what was wrong with him, and he even said it without thinking.
Tao Jiujiu couldn't help but be stunned: "How do you know?"
"I..." Ye Hongtao secretly blamed himself for being too quick and hesitated for a moment. He didn't dare to make up any more of the mess now.
"Because when we attended the class reunion before, I explained in public that I had allergies and could not eat sea fish." Mu Hun was calm and calm, and what she said was not a lie.
"So that's how it is." Tao Jiujiu heard her say this, and quickly pursed her lips apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'll pay attention next time."
"It doesn't matter, I don't blame anyone who knows it! Besides, there are dishes I love on the table!" Mu Huan glanced at Ye Hongtao and said in a pun, "This steamed ribs with Ye Glutinous Rice are also very good! The small and exquisite ribs and the faint fragrance of lotus leaves are the best combination!"
Perhaps to prove that what he said was true, Mu Wu added a piece of ribs, then spooned two spoons of other ingredients wrapped in glutinous rice, and tasted it with relish.
A lot of ingredients were added to the small ribs of lotus leaf glutinous rice, such as shrimp, corn kernels, Qing Jiaoli, celery grains, etc., perhaps wrapped in glutinous rice. Mu Wu did not notice it. When she ate the celery grains, her brows frowned slightly.
"You still can't eat celery." Ye Hongtao's voice was very low, Tao Jiujiu didn't hear it clearly, but Mu Wujiu heard it clearly.
Many years ago, Mu Wu's favorite celery, especially the dish of shredded celery that Ye Hongtao had.
However, when she became pregnant, she couldn't get any celery. Due to her pregnancy reaction, she felt uncomfortable when she smelled the celery.
Since then, she has never touched celery again. Even if she has an abortion or a married woman, this habit has not changed.
Mu Huan and Ye Hongtao looked at each other. Her eyes were clearly nostalgic and unwilling, and his eyes were as calm as an ordinary old friend.
"Emily, why don't you eat it?" Tao Jiujiu raised her head and asked in confusion.
Just now, she had been busy dealing with the delicious swallow fish, so she did not notice the "flirting" between Ye Hongtao and Mu Wu, nor did she notice the slightly awkward atmosphere between the two of them.
"I'm full." Mu Wu replied.
"You can eat so much, so you're so easy to support!" Tao Jiujiu said with a smile, "Hong Tao always said that I'm a 'foodie', and raising me is like raising a pet!"
"Is that true?" Mu Wan's smile was a little reluctant.
"Your face is not very good-looking. Do the dishes in this restaurant do not suit your taste?" Tao Jiujiu saw that Mu Wu's face was pale, and his concern was beyond words.
"It's nothing, just take a few pills." After Mu Wan said that, he took out a bottle of medicine from his bag, poured out a few pills, and swallowed it with mineral water.
"Since you are sick, why don't you see a doctor? What effect can you take medicine all day long?" Tao Jiujiu sounded normal for Ye Hongtao's words, but Mu Wujiu heard it with deep concern.
"You...you will also care about me?" Mu Wu asked boldly.
"Why can't he? You are old classmates." Tao Jiujiu looked at Mu Wu and looked at Ye Hongtao again, and finally realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
She found that when these two people face each other, the feeling that the relationship between them was not just as simple as the old classmate. Mu Huan looked at Ye Hongtao, as if he had thousands of words in his eyes, and he felt a feeling of affection...
I hope she is thinking too much herself.
"Yes. We are just old classmates." Mu Huan smiled self-deprecatingly and asked back, "Hong Tao, are you right?"
"That's right." Ye Hongtao was unwilling to get involved in this topic anymore, so he focused on Tao Jiujiu, "Jiujiu, eat this pigeon egg from the Jiulong Pearl to supplement collagen."
"My skin is already very good, so I don't need to repair it anymore. But thank you." Tao Jiujiu smiled pretty.
"Hong Tao, it's really your blessing to find a girlfriend like Jiujiu." Muhuan said in a sour tone.
"Yes. So I will cherish the wine and never make the same mistakes as four years ago." Ye Hongtao's gentle words were a declaration and a confession.
After saying that, Ye Hongtao reached out and grabbed Tao Jiujiu's waist, scooped a spoonful of tremella soup and put it into Tao Jiujiu's mouth.
Tao Jiujiu smiled with emotion, but Mu Wu's face turned slightly dimmed.
"By the way, it's all my fault for me, as a foodie. We haven't talked about the serious business yet." Tao Jiujiu smiled apologetically, "Emily, go to Ye's Group to work as Hong Tao's secretary. Are you interested?"
"Although it is a good opportunity, I am worried that I can't do it well..." Mu Huan pondered for a moment, "However, I don't want to miss such a good opportunity, it's really a bit embarrassed!"
"It's okay, your ability must be very good, not to mention that Hong Tao's secretary is not very busy. I have confidence in you!" Tao Jiujiu made a "v" character representing success at Muhuan.
Tao Jiujiu's expression looked so sincere, which made Ye Hongtao, who was secretly worried, feel ashamed of himself in front of her. At this moment, he felt that he was not worthy of her. She was so bright, as transparent and dazzling as a crystal. In front of her, even if he compared himself to crystal, he was definitely a flaw that was stained with dust and no longer clear and transparent.
"Then, I can go to work next Monday." Mu Wu was sincerely happy, and then extended his hand to Ye Hongtao, "Hongtao, you will welcome the arrival of me, a new employee, right?"
"Very welcome." Ye Hongtao shook Mu Hun's hand, without the feeling of being electrocuted, without the urge to pull her out of trouble many years ago, as if he was shaking hands with a customer representative. When shaking hands, his smile was natural and generous, "I just hope you don't think that Ye's temple is too small."
"No, I can't even be grateful for your willingness to take me in." Mu Wu's words smelled like a pun.
