Ingrid's current ideas about love are all from books and TV. Nowadays, TV shows no longer play princes and princesses, they are all princes and commoners, princesses and commoners.
Obviously, she also wants to be like on TV.
It's just that Han Qi never responded to her, which made Ingrid very frustrated. During the period when Han Qi returned to China, she still had a few days of catching up on romance dramas.
Originally, it was just a thrill after exercising at the ski resort, but as she missed her every day for more than a month, Han Qi's figure became more and more clear in her heart. In the end, she felt that she was thinking about her during the day and fell asleep at night.
Yeah, it was him in the dream too.
Han Qi frowned.
Waved in front of Ingrid's eyes.
Wave again.
Ingrid's eyes darkened and she realized what she was doing.
"Um?"
Looking at Han Qi cutely, he recalled what he had just thought in his mind, and suddenly blushed with embarrassment.
Ingrid was originally very fair, and her face didn't have freckles like other European women. Now she looks particularly cute when she blushes. And this kind of shy look with bowed head is rare among Westerners. I met her on the road.
It would be good if pretty girls didn't tease Han Qi, but how could Han Qi tease them?
Her appearance made Han Qi's mouth go dry, he coughed lightly and turned his face to one side.
Are you really only 17? Han Qi was thinking in her mind.
After Hahn had enough fun, Han Qi suggested that they go have a big meal, so the few of them walked towards the city.
Today's weather is relatively cold these days. Han Qi wants to eat hot pot.
The last time he came to Tromso, Han Qi searched everywhere. There was no Chinese hot pot restaurant in Tromso, so in order to avoid encountering the craving for hot pot again, Han Qi brought hot pot base ingredients in his luggage.
It takes an hour to walk back to Tromso from the mountains. When he came here before, Han Qi was walking at the end and had to ask Ingrid to slow down to accompany him. But after hearing what Hahn had just said to him, Han Qi gritted his teeth and said,
Keep the same speed as them.
"Do you know hot pot?" Han Qi asked.
"Know."
Hahn also nodded.
Chinese hotpot is not a new thing abroad. There are hotpot restaurants in many big cities, but they haven’t opened in Tromso yet.
It's easy to handle once you know it, and I'm too lazy to explain.
Back in Tromso, Han Qi called a car, went back to the hotel to pick up the hotpot base, and then took the car to the Chinese restaurant owned by Boss Dong.
The taxi stopped accurately outside the Chinese restaurant. Boss Dong heard the sound and looked up to see Han Qi.
Han Qi said: "How is Boss Dong's business?"
"That's it, you guys..." He looked at Ingrid, obviously recognizing her. She is a character who often appears on TV.
"Three of us, please cut some meat and vegetables, put them on three oily dishes, I want Houttuynia cordata." Han Qi also gave him the base ingredients, "Cook this, and we'll have hot pot."
Boss Dong stared at Ingrid for a long time before taking the base and said: "If there is no Houttuynia cordata, who here is going to eat that stuff? Okay, just wait."
This shop has tripe, pork, beef, mutton, and a lot of dishes. After all, it is a Chinese restaurant, and all kinds of seasonings are available. Even if Han Qi doesn't bring the base, Boss Dong can make a hot pot base himself.
material.
Being away from home and unable to speak the language, he could only research food.
Neither Hahn nor Ingrid understood Chinese. They didn't know what Han Qi said to the owner of the store, so they just sat on the chairs and waited to eat.
Han Qi also sat opposite Ingrid, occasionally looking at Ingrid's face.
She is beautiful, but she is not the same as the princess in Han Qi's mind. The more she interacts with her, the more Han Qi feels that she is an ordinary girl that can be seen everywhere in life. Maybe she is just a little more beautiful because of her stricter upbringing.
Hahn is the same, well-educated, but too young and unable to control his emotions.
Ingrid looked at the boss busy in the kitchen and said:
"The first time I had hot pot was in a class about Chinese history and culture. The teacher collected the ingredients for hot pot for us. For us, this was our first opportunity to eat traditional Chinese food."
"So do you like it?"
Ingrid smiled and nodded: "Well, I like it very much. In fact, I have eaten a lot of Chinese food, and I am more impressed by hot pot. Because it allows people to cook food according to their own preferences, and the taste is still very good."
There were no customers in the store now, so Boss Dong acted quickly. He first used an ordinary pot to melt the base ingredients, and then brought an induction cooker to Han Qi's table.
He brought the meat and vegetables over after they were cut, and then went to cut another one. He didn't say the price. He knew that Han Qi could definitely afford to pay, and he was also an old customer who had been here many times.
Take care that the meat is cut from the freshest and most delicious parts.
It was so rare to break a sweat in the heat of winter like this. Han Qi exclaimed that he felt comfortable. Hahn also forgot to continue to be jealous of Han Qi and loudly discussed with Han Qi what kind of meat was the most delicious.
How can eating meat be as satisfying as being jealous?
It took a long time to eat hot pot. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ingrid reluctantly said that she was going back. Han Qi asked Boss Dong to wait for him, and then sent Ingrid and the others to the train.
Why not fly?
Because there is no money.
Han Qi never thought of this reason, but he thought that buying plane tickets now would probably not be as fast as taking the train, so he didn't take it upon himself to buy tickets for them.
After seeing off the two siblings, Han Qi returned to the restaurant.
Boss Dong is already free at this time, and no one will come to eat at this time.
Han Qi walked in and said, "Come on, Old Dong, let's drink some liquor and cut some meat."
Boss Dong put down the book and said, "I knew you weren't full yet."
"I've gone to take care of them. I haven't eaten anything yet." Han Qi sighed and sat down. Seeing the boss busy cutting meat, he went to get two glasses and pour wine.
Boss Dong sat down and was about to ask Han Qi why he knew the little princess of Norway, but Han Qi spoke before him and knocked on the table and said: "I'm so angry. What is the name of the Prime Minister here...
It’s so irritating. What kind of things are taught? Why are we Chinese people inferior to Norwegians?”
"What did you hear?" Boss Dong asked, taking a sip of wine.
"Listen to what the kid just said."
Boss Dong nodded and said: "It is true that Norwegians have disliked us a bit in recent years, but this is only a small part. Most people are still smart."
"But she can't teach bad things to children."
Hahn is a child with a true temperament. He is outgoing and optimistic most of the time. He is different from many Norwegian children. He is just a little jealous. This is a small problem. Han Qi still likes him very much, at least more than the naughty children from relatives.
Like him.
So when she heard what he said, Han Qi had no expression on her face, but she was furious in her heart.
The boss has been in Norway for so long and has nothing to do about this phenomenon. He doesn’t feel that he is being discriminated against or anything, and even thinks that the residents of Tromso are very nice. I just heard two friends in Oslo occasionally complain about this.
Regarding this matter, he said to Han Qi:
"Our country is very powerful now, but we don't have much publicity. It's not like the Americans who bombard us with Hollywood movies all day long, so that the whole world knows that American soldiers are powerful."
Hearing this, Han Qi lost his temper and said:
"Our country is just developing in a low-key manner. After all, being too high-profile is easy to set up a target. It is estimated that in a few years it will become the world's largest country. Haha, I look forward to it. When the time comes, you will stop opening a store here and go back to your country to open one."
Boss Dong also smiled and clinked his wine glasses with Han Qi: "Okay, I've made enough money anyway."
However, the country can keep a low profile, but the Chinese people cannot be so low-key.
Han Qi ate meat and sipped wine.
We have to find a way to let the whole world know that the Chinese people's physique is not weaker than that of people from any other country.
