Chapter 345 Desserts
After a while, Jinyue Tower came to the east branch.
Private room on the fifth floor.
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a knock on the door, and a rough voice came from outside:
"Sir, the dishes are here! This is the whole fish feast you ordered!"
"Well, come in."
"Okay!"
Crunch——
With the sound of the door opening, several Jinyuelou waiters filed in carrying various dishes.
At this moment, Lu Lingqiu and Xia Lianxing were sitting opposite each other at the table.
It was afternoon, and the setting sun passed through the half-open wooden window, caressing the girl's overly delicate face. The air in late autumn was a bit cool, and although it was not as pure as Fenghua Mountain, it could still make people feel comfortable.
The Accord is not large in area and is divided into two areas: inner and outer. Apart from the dining seats by the window, there is only a warm inner room at the corner of the room that is similar to a large bed room.
In this unspeakable atmosphere, hot meals were placed on the round table one after another.
"Young hero, fairy, you two are at ease. If you have any other needs, you can directly press the button on the small spirit pattern next to the table. We will receive a reminder downstairs and send someone up to serve you immediately."
"Um."
Lu Lingqiu nodded.
Afterwards, the waiter placed six dishes, one soup, one wine and one dessert, and left the room with the attendants.
The door is closed.
The house was quiet for a moment.
The two did not move immediately, but looked at each other for a few breaths with some kind of tacit understanding.
It's like admiring each other's faces and feeling the tranquility of this moment with your heart.
Soon, both he and she could realize that the atmosphere between them seemed to have become more complicated.
It is a kind of ambiguity mixed with throbbing, which can make the brain continue to issue explicit instructions uncontrollably, and it is extremely easy to break the mutual attraction between master and servant.
The cat's heartbeat is very fast at the moment.
She subconsciously tilted her head slightly and looked away from her eyes that might reveal her inner thoughts.
After all, they just had a heart-to-heart relationship, so there is some kind of emotional bonus.
But she decided to maintain a certain level of reserve in order to play it by ear.
"This time we must not turn it into a delicious dessert and put it to the owner's mouth... otherwise it will be easier for him to manipulate it."
The girl thought so in her heart.
"cough."
Seeing her looking towards the corner of the table shyly, Lu Lingqiu coughed lightly and took the initiative to break the silence:
"Lianxing, eat something first. Otherwise the fish will be cold soon." He pointed to the delicious food on the table.
"Well, the master will come too."
Maomao calmed down her emotions, pretended to be fine, raised her head, and smiled sweetly at him.
"good."
Lu Lingqiu nodded, reached out and picked up the Lingmu chopsticks from the chopstick pillow, and picked up a piece of the most delicious-looking "fresh dace fish in roasted sauce" for her.
"This seems to be the latest dish developed by Jinyuelou. I don't know if you like it or not."
There is a wide variety of dishes on the table.
Although it is a fish feast, it includes various cooking methods——
Such as cold-cut fish fillets, stewed red fish, hot and spicy squid buds, steamed white fish, crispy fried cod strips, etc... In addition, there is also nutritious bonito egg drop soup, which is very satisfying.
Triangular cold cake, and a pot of "Immortal Drunk" exclusively produced by Jinyuelou.
Originally, the city gate guards sent people to arrange not these drinks and dishes, but more other signature features. However, after Lu Lingqiu arrived, after the waiter asked, he directly changed the dishes to a fish feast, hoping to make up for it.
The regret I felt when I first met a girl.
Xia Lianxing looked at the food on the plate and said shyly at a volume just enough for him to hear:
"As long as the master gives it to me, I like it."
"You kid..."
In her touching words, Lu Lingqiu laughed, took two wine glasses with a strange mood, and filled two glasses of sweet wine for the girl and himself at the same time.
The girl's posture during meals was relatively reserved on weekdays. She was not like Yuan Xiaobu who had never eaten any delicacies before gobbling it up, nor was Bai Xue like Bai Xue who had been losing weight to maintain her figure and could not eat more than a few mouthfuls.
On the contrary, when she was in Jinghua Palace, she could basically attend every dinner party on time and eat a normal amount of food. But somehow, in the eyes of her other sisters, no matter how she ate, she would not gain weight.
.
No one knew that her good posture was achieved through years of secret exercise late at night when no one was around, in order to neutralize the calories she had taken in...
"Lianxing, do you drink?"
At this time, Lu Lingqiu pushed a glass of sweet wine towards the girl and asked.
"I...I have never touched alcohol."
The girl hesitated.
"Oh? That's it. It's better not to drink it. I'll ask someone to get you a glass of juice."
Lu Lingqiu said that he was going to press the little red button on the table, but Maomao stopped him:
"No, Master, I want to drink. I can drink."
"ah?"
Lu Lingqiu looked back and saw that she had put down her chopsticks and took the initiative to reach for the wine glass that belonged to her, with an extremely serious face:
"Master, when you and Sister Jin Yu were together, she must have had a good time drinking with you?"
"Well……"
Before he could answer, he saw a flash of determination in her eyes. She picked up the wine glass and drank the sweet wine in one gulp——
"Uh-huh, uh-huh... cough!"
Although it was sweet wine, the slightly spicy smell of alcohol still made the girl choke and cough several times:
"Ahem, cough...why is it so spicy...?"
Two charming wisps of blush soon appeared on her pink cheeks. Seeing this, Lu Lingqiu immediately stood up and took the cup from her hand, walked around behind her and patted her back:
"Lianxing, you don't have to force yourself."
"I...I just want my master to know that I can also try my best to do what the seniors can do."
She turned her head to look at her master's face, her pupils shining with sincerity.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Lianxing is the hardest working one, I understand."
Lu Lingqiu reached out and rubbed the girl's head, while not forgetting to praise and comfort her.
He knew that such an opportunity to be alone right now was really rare, that's why she cared so much about everything today.
This is the first time she has traveled far away with her. It can be seen that the girl does not want to leave any regrets on this day.
At this moment, Xia Lianxing enjoyed the warmth of her master's palm. She instinctively narrowed her eyes and took the initiative to rub his big hand with her cat ears.
Before you know it, there is no more "dining atmosphere" at the dinner table.
The previous feeling finally gradually deteriorated under the influence of this close distance.
——
…
I can’t remember exactly how I put down the wine glasses and tableware and came to the inner room.
I only know that I woke up again because of the continuous loud conversations coming from next door.
At this moment, the food on the dining table outside the door was already cold.
Lu Lingqiu sat up from the bed and let out a breath of turbid air.
"... Great Elder, I just received news from the temple that all the jade plaques of Fengjing and the others were shattered not long ago!"
Several female voices coming from next door were clearly heard.
"What did you say? With a deacon leading the team, how could something like this happen?"
"I don't know either... The Sanskrit Order speculates that enemies who can achieve this level are almost only likely to exist at the end of the Tribulation. But looking at the sky, it seems that only the Jinghua Palace has such a bright appearance.
So powerful..."
——
After hearing these few words, Lu Lingqiu, who was inadvertently disturbed, immediately frowned.
It was late at night.
He turned his head and looked at the cat sleeping soundly in the quilt beside him, and then quietly released his consciousness towards the next door.
