Chapter 116 Peeling Lobster for Mr. Xi
Chapter 116 Peel lobster for Mr. Xi~
The lobster restaurant Ruan Qi mentioned was actually the seafood restaurant where she invited Qin Qingdi and the three of them to eat last time.
This restaurant is almost the most upscale near Imperial University, and the taste is particularly good, so Ruan Qi wanted to bring Xi Jiu to have a try.
Xi Jiu, wearing a suit that cost seven figures, squeezed into the bustling snack street with Ruan Qi.
The students walking around all cast curious glances. After all, Xi Jiu's clothes were visibly expensive to them.
"Mr. Xi, we're here." Ruan Qi in front suddenly stopped.
She turned around and waved to Xi Jiu, her peach blossom eyes outside the mask curved into crescents.
"Let's go in."
——*——*——
In the private room, several waiters brought the dishes to the table in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Xi, I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered some of each." Ruan Qi took off her mask, scratched her stuffy and red nose, and said solemnly, "This store is really It’s delicious, especially the crayfish. Mr. Xi, would you like to try it?”
As she spoke, she put on disposable gloves, picked up a crayfish and peeled it.
The little girl's fingers are extremely thin, white and tender, in sharp contrast to the red crayfish.
Ruan Qi quickly peeled off a lobster and put it on Xi Jiu's plate.
Xi Jiu was stunned.
"You..." He looked at her blankly, his cold voice a little unsteady, "You peeled the lobster for me?"
"Yes~" Ruan Qi, who was busy peeling the lobster, raised his head and showed a soft smile, "This meal is my thanks to Mr. Xi for helping me. Peeling the lobster is also a way of thanking me."
Actually, there was another reason she didn't say.
As the leader of the Xi family, Xi Jiu doesn't look like someone who knows how to eat crayfish.
She was afraid that he wouldn't be able to peel a lobster and was embarrassed to say so.
Well, she is really a kind and considerate little angel~
Ruan Qi gave herself a little red flower in her heart, and happily peeled off several more crayfish and put them on Xi Jiu's plate.
"Mr. Xi, please eat quickly. If there's not enough for us, we can order more."
The leader of the Xi family, who has always been resolute and ruthless, was rarely confused.
He looked at the several red lobster meats on the plate, and dense starlight welled up in the depths of his black eyes.
Xi Jiu picked up the chopsticks and elegantly picked up the lobster meat and put it in his mouth.
The rich spicy flavor spreads in your mouth.
He had never liked food heavy in oil and salt, but this time, he felt that Ruan Qi was right - the lobster in this restaurant was really, really delicious.
Xi Jiu swallowed the lobster meat, raised his head, and saw the little girl's eyes full of expectation.
The corner of his mouth curled up and he nodded slightly: "It's delicious."
Suddenly, the little girl smiled like a pink marshmallow.
"As long as Mr. Xi likes it, I'll peel it for you." As she said that, she reached out to pick up the lobster, but Xi Jiu grabbed her wrist.
Ruan Qi looked at him doubtfully.
"You don't need to." Xi Jiu pulled her hand back and slowly put on disposable gloves for herself, "I'll peel it off and you can eat it."
As he spoke, he took a lobster and peeled off the meat with a flick of his long fingers.
Ruan Qi opened her eyes wide in shock and opened her mouth into an 'O' shape.
"Mr. Xi peels the lobster so quickly!" She sighed sincerely.
A smile flashed across Xi Jiu's eyes.
He put the lobster meat on her plate and said in a deep voice: "In the past, when we were on missions at the base and there was no food, we would eat whatever we encountered. If we encountered crayfish, everyone would rush to eat them. If you eat too much, you will practice your speed. Out."
In just a few sentences, Ruan Qi was able to capture the hard work and hardship at that time.
She nodded, knowing enough not to ask further questions, and changed the topic to a lighter topic.
"Actually, I used to eat crayfish a lot. My family lives in a village, and the river in the back mountain is full of wild crayfish. In the summer, my master and senior brother would take me to catch lobsters."
