Chapter 834
Li Jie's stomach was very uncomfortable, because he drank so many carbonated drinks with Black Bat King, his whole stomach was in a feeling of acid reflux. It was as uncomfortable as being gently licked by the tongue of fire.
So the dinner prepared by Li Jie tonight is very simple. To be precise, the meal that Li Jie ate was prepared by Lan. Stewed pork ribs with carrots and sweet corn, steamed meat patties and boiled lettuce with a little oil consumption. This kind of food is okay for Li Jie to eat by himself, but it's fine to serve Peter, Gwen and Katie. None of them like this food.
So the cardboard box that Li Jie was holding contained some ingredients, the dinner food prepared for them. Because of stomach discomfort, Li Jie was really not in the mood to make it complicated. So he simply whipped up grilled pizza and fried chicken. This kind of food is relatively simple to make, and it also meets the tastes of young people.
At the dinner table, Li Jie, Lan, Katie, Peter, and Gwen sat at the long table (Strange went out to rest, Thor went out to find Strange, Sif went out to find Thor) .
"So, you're welcome. Let's start eating." Li Jie signaled the others at the table to start eating. His stomach is very uncomfortable, and he wants to have a sip of hot soup.
Lan's pork rib soup has been simmering for two hours, and now she also knows that the pork ribs need to be blanched first, so that the soup will not have blood foam, and the taste will be sweeter and less fishy.
Because it is stewed in a small casserole, the ribs, corn and carrot soup has a good and strong taste, but the amount is very small. These things are only enough for Li Jie to eat alone. The tulips that Li Jie bought home had already been inserted into the vase at the entrance.
Li Jie's cheese pizza is full of aroma, with large slices of German smoked sausage, onion, sweet pepper and prepared tomato sauce as the base, then sprinkled with basil leaves, and finally covered with a thick layer of cheese. The 15-inch large-plate pizza follows the Italian-style thin-crust pizza route.
The whole pizza tastes neither dry nor oily, and the taste is just right. The homemade mozzarella cheese bought from a certain ranch in Switzerland has been roasted and melted at high temperature, and a layer of slightly browned crispy shell has formed on the surface. But the inside is still soft and can be brushed.
Peter Parker came up heartlessly, grabbed a piece and ate it. But Gwen noticed that the food in front of Li Jie was different, so she asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Jie took a sip of hot soup: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
Lan knew that Li Jie's stomach was uncomfortable, but Katie didn't know, she looked up at Li Jie and Lan with a complicated expression, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's just too many carbonated drinks." Li Jie waved his hand.
Peter bit the pizza and pulled out a long shredded cheese. He ate in a hurry and said, "Drink too much Coke? Why are you acting like a child?"
Li Jie didn't bother to refute Peter's comments, because he wasn't really addicted to carbonated drinks. It's about sacrificing your stomach for the sake of serious business.
Katie was a little annoyed and funny about Li Jie's remarks that his stomach was upset because he drank too much of this cola. She laughed out loud at first, but she turned her head to see that Lan was looking at Li Jie with tender eyes. Suddenly she couldn't stop laughing.
It was like a high-speed vehicle suddenly braking, which made Katie very uncomfortable. Li Jie noticed Katie's expression, Li Jie pouted. It was really troublesome, he looked at Lan who was beside him again.
Although Lan was smiling, her eyes were gentle. But Li Jie still remembered what she said just now [I am the storm roaring on the top of the Himalayas]. Li Jie sighed, what kind of shit is this.
Li Jie looked at Katie and asked, "Read, how is Katie recently? Are you getting used to being a female president? Has anyone bullied you or something?"
"Very good, I think no one will bully me." Katie replied quickly. Then there was a silence. She didn't know what to say now. I should have had a lot to say, but now it feels like it's too late to say anything.
Li Jie looked at Lan and knew that Youlan probably couldn't let go of Katie. In any case, Katie is also his good friend, and he still attaches great importance to this friend. Moreover, the professor also likes Katie, a student, and maybe he will be proud of having such a student in his career as a professor.
Li Jie wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then said to Katie: "Will you accompany me to the garden? I would like to hear how your life will be after you become president. Publications are useful."
Katie laughed: "Then you need to pay me the copyright fee." Li Jie nodded: "Of course."
Just when Li Jie and Katie were going to talk in the back garden, Peter interrupted while eating pizza: "You haven't eaten much, Jason."
Li Jie: "I'm full."
Peter: "Nonsense, don't you have a stomachache? Ah~ Gwen why did you kick me." Gwen covered her face.
Lan smiled and shook his head at Peter and Gwen.
………………………
In the back garden of Li Jie's villa.
Katie stretched her waist, which made her whole body appear particularly light. Li Jie walked on Katie's left side, looked at Katie and said, "I think that woolen coat suits you very well."
"Yeah, it's really good. I like it very much." Katie put her hands into the pockets of her jeans: "You have a good eye. I probably wouldn't be able to buy such good clothes if I bought them myself. Did Lan help you choose? "
Katie looked at Li Jie, and Li Jie didn't evade: "No, I chose it. Including the one for Lan and my mother."
Katie turned her head and said in a low voice: "Oh." Her mood improved inexplicably: "Let's talk about what happened before."
"What?" Li Jie didn't understand what Katie wanted to ask.
"You said you drank too much Coke in the afternoon? I remember you don't like these things very much." Katie asked Li Jie curiously. She really didn't want to talk about Lan now.
As I said before, Katie really wanted someone to talk to. At this time, talking about Lan, or Li Jie's girlfriend, Katie felt that she would be in a bad mood.
Li Jie gave a succinct answer to Katie's inquiry: "For some negotiations, I was forced to compete with a fanatic of carbonated drinks such as Coke, Sprite, and Jianlibao. These things are really not what I am good at."
Katie didn't really want to discuss with Li Jie why he drank too many carbonated drinks. She was just looking for something to say. Katie found a chair in the back garden and sat down, then looked at Li Jie and said with a sigh: "Yeah, work is always tiring. Being a mutant female president is also tiring. This job is more stressful than mine. Think bigger. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have a trusted friend by my side."
Katie looked in the direction of the living room of the house: "It's like you have Lan now. When your stomach is upset, she will cook hot soup for you. It feels good, and there will always be someone when you need help Help me."
Katie had made up her mind not to talk about Lan's affairs, but she couldn't help but say it out. What an immature girl, Katie complained inwardly.
Li Jie sat beside Katie: "Actually, don't you have many companions who are always by your side? Those who can be trusted."
Katie shook her head: "That's different. Or rather. You know, I have a better relationship with you. Well, I don't deny this, I like you. It's very straightforward , but now it looks like I have little chance. You have your own Sissi (Note)."
Katie shook her head, her long hair fluttering: "Maybe I should have done it earlier." After speaking, Katie smiled to herself, and then said in a low voice: "I really hope you can spend more time with me. Stay by my side for a while." Katie said her thoughts bluntly, but she couldn't control her depression.
"Actually, I have always been with you, just in a different form and identity." What Li Jie said made Katie turn her eyes to Li Jie again, but Li Jie disappeared, and there was only one Katie was familiar with win people.
Nightcrawler, this is praised by many people such as Professor Charles and Dr. Hank, and Katie herself needs to admire his unconstrained imagination, and listened to his opinions and made many revisions and news political shows on the Mutant Founding Event .
And now he is sitting in Li Jie's place before, and instead of speaking in the deep and hoarse voice of the Nightcrawler (Li Jie has a skill of changing voice), he speaks in Li Jie's original voice: "Actually, comrade always there."
Note: It was supposed to be Princess Anne of Roman Holiday, but when I wrote it, I got confused and got the names of the two princesses wrong. I use Audrey Hepburn as Princess Anne to refer to Lan
