The decoration inside the restaurant is very retro, with an overall British feel, which is very eye-catching.
"Don't we have to wait a moment?" Shen Shiyu asked after passing through the crowd.
Lu Bai turned around and smiled slightly. "The store is mine."
The two entered a small private room inside. There was a fresh woody aroma in the room, and the iron plate sprayed with sesame oil gave off a bit of smoke.
Lu Bai helped Shen Shiyu take off his coat, then pulled out a chair for her to sit down.
There are so many kinds of dishes in the store that Shen Shiyu's eyes almost went dazzled just by looking at the menu. In the end, he only asked the waiter to recommend a few special dishes.
"You opened this store?" Shen Shiyu looked around and sighed.
Lu Bai nodded.
The two of them took a few bites of the appetizers.
"Then...can you also cook?"
Shen Shiyu subconsciously lowered his head and looked at his hand on the table - it was white and slender, looking a little soft at first glance, but the protruding finger bones were a bit scary, and the clear joints revealed his strength, and he was placed quietly. It looks like a bow and arrow ready to go.
"What if I say yes?" Lu Bai looked at her calmly with a smile.
Shen Shiyu lowered his head and smiled sheepishly. "I'm just curious."
"I am willing to satisfy your curiosity."
Lu Bai quickly walked out of the kitchen, wearing a white chef's suit. He looked like he had been serving in the upper-class catering industry for many years.
He adjusted his collar, took the ingredients provided by the waiter, and started working on the iron plate.
Those were indeed a pair of doctor's hands. They were surprisingly flexible. They were extremely agile and quick in controlling materials and tools.
Watching the ingredients turn into small shapes under his knife, and then turn over and change color in the clear oil on the iron plate, is definitely a visual feast.
In a few minutes, the first dish was ready.
"What's this?"
"Feili." Lu Bai handed her the knife and fork.
The beef is very tender. If you taste it carefully, you will have a light milky taste, which will leave a fragrance on your lips and teeth.
“Ebi Tempura Roll.”
Lu Bai muttered something and then put the food on the plate. "Be careful of the heat."
It's shrimp meat and tastes very good.
The third course. “mb cutles.”
Lu Bai's voice was very soft, but Shen Shiyu could hear it every time.
She had been in the United States and had spoken English for so many years. After returning to China, she could not help but think of those days when she listened to it again, so she unconsciously chatted with Lu Bai about her experience of studying abroad.
"When you are in a foreign country, it is a good choice to have someone by your side." Lu Bai said.
"Indeed." Shen Shiyu replied. "But, I'm used to being alone."
"There's nothing wrong with being alone. What I'm talking about is just a choice."
"I have friends, but not many." Shen Shiyu responded. "But I think for close friends, sometimes one or two are enough."
"What you made is another choice. There is no good or bad choice." Lu Bai said with a smile. "Just like some people will pour their feelings into their friends, and some people will pour their feelings into their lovers. They are all different. choose."
Shen Shiyu smiled and nodded.
"Speaking of which, this is really an interesting multiple-choice question." Lu Bai stared at her and continued.
"I think I will choose the second option." Shen Shiyu said.
"It's just that there is no one to pour into now."
Lu Bai's words stunned Shen Shiyu, and she looked at him.
"Just kidding." Lu Bai quickly broke the deadlock and said with a smile.
Shen Shiyu licked her lips. She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt nervous.
Lu Bai poured her a glass of water at the right time.
"To me, feelings are just the spice of life, but not necessary. I believe many people have the same idea as me," he said.
Shen Shiyu listened to his words and lowered his head to take a sip of water.
The changes in her eyes and movements only took a few seconds, but she inexplicably felt that all her changes were fully visible to others.
But when she raised her head, she didn't see Lu Bai looking at her.
When he went back, Lu Bai helped Shen Shiyu open the car door and got into the car without starting the car first.
"Miss Shen, I have a request."
Shen Shiyu frowned.
"You say."
"Since you don't have a boyfriend and you haven't been very busy at work recently, I would like to ask you..."
His words became slower and slower. Shen Shiyu felt uncomfortable and interrupted him first. "Doctor Lu, actually, I, I may soon..."
Lu Bai's expression changed from calm to calm, and Shen Shiyu didn't know what to say.
"What do you want to say?" She had no choice but to bring the topic back tentatively.
"I want to ask you to be my psychiatrist." Lu Bai said.
"..." Shen Shiyu twitched his lips in embarrassment. "What does this have to do with whether I have a boyfriend or not?"
Lu Bai smiled softly. "You don't have a boyfriend, so I won't apologize for taking up your private time with money."
…
Tan Tao.
After Chu Wuzheng gave instructions, Da Lian and Xiang Hang checked the list of Hu Yao and Zhu Deliang's high school classmates and saw this name in it.
But the strange thing is that, in addition to appearing on the high school class list that year, this name was nowhere to be found in the social circles of Zhu Deliang, Hu Yao, and the other classmates they visited. It was as if this person did not exist at all. existed.
They asked several classmates, but only one said that he had some impression of the name, and the others said they couldn't remember it even after looking at the photo.
Then, Liao Shuai found a phone number on Hu Yao's mobile phone that he had contacted Hu Yao a week ago. This phone number also contacted Zhu Deliang yesterday.
After confirmation, it was Tan Tao's number.
Chu Wuzheng quickly asked Da Lian and Xiang Hang to go out to arrest the people.
Judging from Tan Tao's performance last time, he should have already planned these two cases, so he must be in a frightened state now. Chu Wuzheng repeatedly told them to be cautious and proceed with caution.
After the two set off, Chu Wuzheng asked Liao Shuai for the inspection report from the technical department. After looking through it for a long time, he found that he couldn't read it at all, so he had to go to the toilet to wash his face.
The cold water was splashed on his face, and the fire in his heart subsided a little, but he was still upset, so he raised his hand and sprinkled some water on the mirror.
However, Chu Wuzheng looked at the stained marks on it and couldn't bear to think of the hard work of the cleaning staff, so he had to take out a piece of paper and wipe it clean.
Staring at the mirror, he glanced at himself inside, and suddenly realized that the inner edge of his collar seemed a little dirty.
While pulling it over to take a closer look, Chu Wuzheng's hand that he took off was stained with some pink color, mixed with traces of skin color. He looked at his fingers in a daze, then tilted his head and looked at the collar, and said something after a long time. "What a fool!".
"Did you do this?"
Chu Wuzheng pushed open the office door and walked to He Mengmeng who was in the pile of information, pointing to his collar and asking.
In fact, as soon as Chu Wuzheng went out, He Mengmeng noticed that her lipstick and foundation were stained. She thought about telling him, but Chu Wuzheng walked too fast, and she couldn't see him when she opened the door.
When He Mengmeng returned to the house, she was busy touching up her makeup. At the same time, some thoughts of a little girl emerged. It was too late to have fun, so she didn't bother to go out and remind him.
But looking at him now, he must have been reminded...
He Mengmeng, who was holding back her laughter, had an innocent look on her face. "No, don't blame me. I didn't notice it at first... My lipstick and foundation are so valuable. If they get on your clothes, it will cost you a few dollars. You
It’s an advantage!”
Seeing that Chu Wuzheng was still staring at her, He Mengmeng felt a little uneasy and continued to explain. "The place I touched is on the inside. If you don't look close, you can't see it."
After saying that, he raised a file bag and covered his face.
