After finally convincing Li Wan and asking for another day off, Jiang Qiao hung up the phone.
After exiting the call interface, Jiang Qiao glanced at the time.
At half past eleven!
He was shocked. Not only did he go to bed too late, he also missed all the classes in the morning.
The notification bar showed that Li Wan had made more than ten calls to him, but all of them were missed. In addition, there were more than a dozen WeChat messages, starting with "Jiang Qiao, there will be a penalty for being late."
"Yo~" After arriving, "Jiang Qiao, where are you? Come to school quickly!", and then the final "Jiang Qiao, are you okay? If you are here, give me a call!"
Jiang Qiao took one look and didn't dare to look again. It seemed that he really made Li Wan very angry.
"Jiang Qiao, if you have anything important to do, just do it and don't worry about me."
Jiang Qiao turned around, and Sylvie had already stood up. She was holding the sleeves of her gray robe with her little hands, as if she was a little nervous.
Behind her, the quilt on the sofa has been neatly folded.
"It's okay," Jiang Qiao raised the phone in his hand and said with a smile, "I have already asked for leave from the teacher."
The reason why I took this day off was that I had slept until noon, and it seemed a bit redundant to go to school in the afternoon.
Secondly, he went to school, what should Sylvie do?
Jiang Qiao was still worried about leaving Sylvie at home alone, not to mention this was a world she knew nothing about.
Jiang Qiao already knew that Sylvie came to this world accidentally, and she didn't know why she was blocked by the light gate and couldn't go back.
Since I can't go back for the time being, I have to take responsibility.
After all, Jiang Qiao is the only person she is familiar with in this world.
"Jiang Qiao, you seem to have a good relationship with your teacher?" Sylvie tapped her chin with her finger, recalling her palace teacher, an old maid who was unsmiling and stern.
Not to mention asking for leave, normal conversation and laughter will be scolded as disrespectful.
"It's okay, it's just a normal exchange." Jiang Qiao didn't think it was anything. He was both a teacher and a friend.
Sylvie wanted to say something more, but then her stomach growled.
Her face turned red, she put her hands on her belly and hesitated: "Well..."
"Are you hungry?" Jiang Qiao laughed, "But it's indeed dinner time. Let me see what's left in the refrigerator."
Jiang Qiao came to the refrigerator and opened the fresh-keeping layer, but it was empty.
Then I opened the freezer layer, and the three layers were filled with plastic bags. The plastic bags contained various frozen chickens, ducks, pigs, and fish.
Sylvie stood behind Jiang Qiao, standing on tiptoes and looking curiously.
"What a magical...cabinet!" She exclaimed when she saw the slightest trace of air-conditioning coming out of the refrigerator, "A magical item with ice elements?"
"Ahem..." Jiang Qiao was amused by her reaction, "There is no magic here. We are a world that advocates science. As for the cabinet you see, it is called a 'refrigerator' and is used for cooling and preservation.
of."
"Refrigerator?" Sylvie chewed on this strange word in her opinion and asked: "Since it has no magic effect, what is its principle?"
"How does it work..." Jiang Qiao said while searching for something in the frozen ingredients: "Probably it transfers the heat in the refrigerator to the outside of the refrigerator?"
In today's world of information explosion, he has never carefully explored the principles of refrigerators.
"Transfer heat?" This is another new term that I have never heard of... Sylvie's eyes lit up.
That is definitely a new field!
She was about to get to the bottom of it when she saw Jiang Qiao pulling out a large bag of stuff from the pile of ingredients.
"The decision is yours, handmade dumplings!"
...
Sylvie put her hands behind her back and looked at Jiang Qiao cooking.
Jiang Qiao first filled a pot of cold water, then opened the bag of dumplings and poured them out. The plump dumplings all jumped into the pot.
This was something Cheng Ruoxi bought for him to put in the refrigerator. It was handmade. I heard that a bag was worth dozens of dollars. Jiang Qiao kept it for a long time and didn't want to eat it. He just forgot about it after leaving it for a long time.
If Sylvie hadn't been here, this bag of dumplings would probably have been placed in Changmao.
Jiang Qiao put his hand on the stove and twisted it slightly.
The light flames moved in response.
Sylvie was shocked when she saw it. It was possible to light a flame without drawing a magic circle or communicating with the elemental elves?
What a magical world...she sighed silently.
While waiting for the dumplings to boil, Jiang Qiao asked: "Sylvie, if you disappear suddenly like this, will your family be worried about you?"
Sylvie, who was still looking at the dumplings, was stunned for a while when she heard this: "Hmm... maybe, but it's okay! When the light door is gentle enough for me to go back, I'll give it to you again."
Father explained...well, that's better!"
Sylvie pointed to the pot of boiling water, where the dumplings were floating gurglingly.
Turn off the heat, get a large bowl and scoop up the dumplings with a spoon.
Get a few more plates of dipping sauce and put them on the table with the dumplings.
"Jiang Qiao, I can't use these two sticks..."
Sylvie took the two chopsticks Jiang Qiao gave her, but she couldn't figure out how to use them.
She looked a little anxious as Jiang Qiao picked up dumplings one after another and put them into his mouth.
"Oh...I forgot you can't use chopsticks." Jiang Qiao scratched his head awkwardly, and then brought her a fork.
"Thank you~" Sylvie took it politely and forked a dumpling happily and elegantly.
Dip it in chili oil and take a small bite.
Some hot soup flows on the tip of the tongue, and the rich aroma suddenly explodes in the taste buds. The salty aroma of the pork and the slight sweetness of the cabbage create a wonderful taste after mixing.
This is a strange food that Sylvie has never tried before.
"It's delicious! I've never seen it over there." After Sylvie chewed it, a surprised and happy smile appeared on her face. Even if she praised something, she would be very polite.
"Yeah, there's nothing I can't do if I take action." Jiang Qiao said proudly, and then silently added in his heart, this is the power of modern industry.
There are various spices and condiments, and the leather shoes will not taste bad at all.
The two of them were eating, but Jiang Qiao always felt that something was missing.
So he took the remote control and pressed it against the TV.
"The main content of this news is..." The moment the TV screen lit up, the host's voice also came.
"Who is it?" Hearing this sudden voice, Sylvie's body trembled and she quickly put down the bowl.
She was like an agile cat, her eyes fixed on the TV, and the magic mark on her hand lit up instantly.
A flame burned in the palm of her hand.
At the level of a junior magician, one can already initially break away from the magic circle and perform some magic.
"No, no, no... don't be impulsive!" Upon seeing this, Jiang Qiao quickly called out to Sylvie.
He was really afraid that this little girl would destroy his house with a fireball.
