Chapter 1586: Aiden's Craft
After learning that the student named Charlie needs 2 months to recover, the nasal bone and cartilage are broken, concussion and other problems.
The principal thinks Aiden's punishment is too light.
Although it can only be forgotten this time, he remembered the name Aiden Bran in his heart.
Three weeks passed quickly.
After cleaning the library for the last time, Aiden and Francis sent the tools back to the grocery room, feeling a little bit reluctant.
It is not a punishment at all, but gives him enough time to think and read.
Francis would come to the library to help out from time to time, because she needed to wait for Aiden to drive home with her.
They rented together and co-funded a used red Cadillac.
The house is located in the outskirts of the city 5 kilometers away from the school, with 4 bedrooms, 2 halls and 3 bathrooms.
There are independent lawns, parking spaces, and an open-air swimming pool that is not big enough behind.
They simply cleaned it up and made it look brand new.
Plus sun umbrellas and deck chairs, sitting by the pool at night blowing the cold wind, with a special martini made by yourself, life is enjoyment.
"It's finally over." Francis was relieved, the library was really not suitable for her.
Especially the movement of rubbing her hands and feet when she needs to keep quiet made her make a lot of jokes.
Still, she enjoyed her alone time with Aiden.
Living under the same roof has created many opportunities for her.
It's just that Francis is a little uncertain that Aiden's attitude has become completely different from before.
He is no longer so shy, cute, and evasive.
When I was in the Mediterranean, seeing her running around the room in a three-point style, Aiden would always find an excuse to leave.
Now she was running around the room in her cutie and T-shirt, but he had no intention of avoiding her.
Instead, he looked at her openly, talked to her, and talked.
Francis was a little uncertain, whether it was proof that he was enlightened, or that he had completely lost interest in himself.
Frankly, steadily, like a mature man's charm is more tempting than before.
Francis muttered under his breath, "It would be perfect if he could handle it better."
"What?" Aiden asked pretending not to hear clearly.
"No, nothing?" Francis changed the topic: "I want to go shopping before going home. We need to buy some ingredients. We have finished eating at home."
"Okay, I'm going to drive." The two left the library side by side, and passers-by were no strangers to this.
Three weeks is enough for them to have a preliminary understanding.
Especially after seeing a child named Charlie in a mess with a bandaged nose, no one dared to provoke him anymore.
"Won't it bother you to stay with me all the time?" Aiden was curious, how she endured those women's gossip.
Even he himself didn't know how many versions he had heard about the details of the shameless life between Francis and him.
Wondering where they found the inspiration to make it up as if it were real.
To be honest, if his life had been that exciting, my mother would be standing at the door of his room with scissors in hand.
"Same as you." Francis said with a relaxed smile: "Take it as if you haven't heard anything, and you can speak freely, as long as they don't come to your door to make trouble."
"I'm not a delicate girl." Francis said provocatively with a grappling gesture.
"Wow!" Aiden nodded in amazement, showing admiration.
Francis saw his teasing, raised his fist angrily and hit him.
Aiden ducked and said defiantly; "Your fists look like marshmallows, delicious, ma'am!"
"Man, it's a big mistake to say that, you will regret what you said." Francis chased him with his fists raised and his face full of threats.
Running all the way through the shade, Aiden stood beside the car and raised his hand and said, "Ok, ok, we should go shopping quickly, they will be closed in a while."
"I need compensation!" Francis pursed his lips threateningly; "A good meal.
"
"Okay." Aiden said easily; "Today we eat Chinese food, let you try my skills."
Aiden didn't want to show off his culinary skills. They traveled half the city in the past three weeks, but they couldn't find a restaurant with a suitable taste.
So, I either solve it at school every day, or cook by myself after returning home.
Most of the time, Francis is doing it. She learned her craft from the hotel chef at Hilton, which is very good.
"So you can cook Chinese food." Sitting in the car, Francis was still struggling with this question; "Why did you always say that you can't cook?"
"Look, we're here." Aiden pointed to the small supermarket in front of him and changed the subject.
He didn't want to explain or reason with women. The experience he had learned from his mother over the years was enough for him to compile a "Aiden-Women's Guide".
It is quite a challenge to purchase enough ingredients to make a Chinese meal here.
Aiden can only try to pick ingredients he knows, until he sees a small alcohol stove.
"I have an idea." After taking a lot of things and paying the bill, the two returned to the house with a full load.
"What are these?" After moving all the things back to the room, Francis stared at the things on the table with curious eyes.
Aiden is working on the alcohol stove on the table, he has only seen Li Xiaobin use this thing, and it is his first time to actually operate it.
After the flames ignited inside, Aiden said excitedly; "Okay, that's it."
"Now, we just put the pot full of water on top and add the secret sauce from the Far East."
Aiden quickly ran to the kitchen, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find out the mysterious sauce that Li Xiaobin had prepared for him before leaving.
Then, he put a whole package of about 500 grams of spicy ingredients into the pot.
"Perfect." Covering the pot, Aiden walked towards the kitchen with various ingredients, "Come and help, put everything on the plate, and the meal will be ready soon."
"It smells so good!" The aroma in the hot pot ingredients is stimulated as soon as it is put into the pot.
Francis was in the kitchen, but she kept looking at the dining room. She couldn't wait to taste the mysterious food from the Far East.
Although she didn't know what he put in the pot, she didn't mind taking a spoonful to taste it.
"Can we hurry up?" Francis kept urging.
"Okay, this is the last one." Aiden put the sliced bacon on the plate and served it.
"What are we going to do now?" Francis asked with his head over the hot pot, holding the aroma in front of him non-stop, with an intoxicated face.
"Now, you just put what you want in the pot, cook it, put it in a bowl, dip it in those delicious sauces and eat it."
Although it was the first time to do it, he remembered every step.
This is one of the favorite delicacies of Dad and Uncle Li, hot pot.
And it has a magical property; no matter what ingredient it is, just put it in a pot and cook it, and it will become the most delicious food.
