The "yam" specially cooked by Xu Ruolan for Zhang Yilong was delicious. He tasted it several times in a row. The more he ate, the more delicious it became. Seeing such delicious food, Zhang Yilong no longer cared about being gentlemanly, and immediately gulped it down.

When I started eating, I devoured it greedily.

Seeing Zhang Yilong eating deliciously, Xu Ruolan was naturally happy. The other person liked the food, which meant that her craftsmanship was in line with his appetite.

"Mr. Zhang, please eat more. I see that you are a little thin and seem to be malnourished, so you should eat something good to supplement your nutrition." Xu Ruolan greeted with a smile.

"Well, thank you! All the dishes you cook are delicious!" Zhang Yilong nodded and smiled. This is the first time he has eaten and enjoyed real food. In the past, he thought big fish and meat were very good, but he didn't think about food culture.

There are many, many delicacies that are so profound and better than fish and meat, and they are much more delicious.

Zhang Yilong vaguely felt that Xu Ruolan should work in a hotel. Didn't she just say that this "yam" is not for guests to eat? This indirectly shows that her occupation is not a big deal.

The chef is the owner of the hotel.

Zhang Yilong devoured this meal to his heart's content. He had never felt so full before. He praised Xu Ruolan's cooking skills, as she was worthy of being a chef. He thought that if he married her as his wife, he would be greatly blessed.

"What happened to Miaomiao's father? Did Xu Ruolan divorce him very early?" Zhang Yilong couldn't help but think to himself. Although he had many questions in his heart, he was embarrassed to ask directly. This is someone else's private matter.

How can you, an outsider, inquire easily?

Although it was his first time to be a guest at Xu Ruolan's house, Zhang Yilong felt so cordial, as if he had arrived at his own sister's home. Miaomiao seemed closer to him than his niece. After all, the little girl didn't feel much stranger to him.

She even whispered to him, and when he thought about the issue that Miaomiao had "discussed" with him before, he couldn't help but his heart beat faster and his face turned red. He didn't expect that Miaomiao would ask him that.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you do for a living?" After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Xu Ruolan and her daughter sat on the sofa and chatted casually with Zhang Yilong. She suddenly asked about Zhang Yilong's occupation.

Zhang Yilong answered truthfully: "I am now working in an auction company. I originally started a business with my friends after graduating from university. However, the first time I started my business, I did not have enough funds and experience, so it failed. Later, I did not have any business for a long time.

For a formal job, just pick up some random jobs and make ends meet. It's pretty stable now, and I work in that auction company."

"So you are in the antique business?" Xu Ruolan said somewhat unexpectedly, "Then you must have a good eye. Can you identify antiques?"

Zhang Yilong shook his head in a matter-of-fact manner and replied: "I can only be regarded as a novice, and there is still a long way to go before experts and experts. I only know a little bit about appraisals."

Xu Ruolan said solemnly: "I have something in my hand, which is also an antique, but I am not interested in it at all. I am thinking of selling it, but the store has been very busy recently and I can't spare the time to find someone for appraisal.

.Now since you work in an auction house, I’ll leave the things to you to handle when the time comes.”

"Oh, really?" As soon as he heard Xu Ruolan's words, Zhang Yilong's interest suddenly increased. He is now a salesman in their company. His main job is to contact the seller, and then bring Mu Wanqing to do the appraisal. If the item is suitable

Then please go back to the company for the auction. Now when Xu Ruolan said that he had an antique in his hand, he was naturally excited. This undoubtedly created an opportunity for him. In fact, even if the sale could not be made, he still hoped to see some good things so that he could

Expand horizons.

"Yes, it's a painting. It's very precious. I'm keeping it in the bank's vault now. I'll ask you to help me take a look at it when I'm free someday. If possible, I'd like to put it up for auction. Anyway, it's in my hands.

It’s not of much use, it’s better to sell it to someone who knows how to collect it,” Xu Ruolan said.

Zhang Yilong nodded quickly and agreed: "Okay, I'll be available at any time. Just call me when the time comes. Haha, I'll be there when you call me!"

This is his job, and of course he is very enthusiastic. The other person is talking about a really precious ancient painting, maybe a valuable masterpiece, which is really exciting.

After chatting with Xu Ruolan for an hour or two, Zhang Yilong stood up and said goodbye.

"Mr. Zhang, don't leave in a hurry. If you don't want to stay at my house for dinner, then take those things with you." Xu Ruolan stood up quickly and said.

"What?" Zhang Yilong was suspicious, and then he saw Xu Ruolan running into the kitchen. When she came out, she had something in her hand, which was an exquisite thermos bottle.

"Mr. Zhang, I have prepared a soup for you. You can drink it after you go back and heat it up a little. Also, the top layer is some leftover yam. If you say it is delicious, then eat more.

It's a pity that I only cooked a little bit today. I will cook it for you when I have the opportunity." Xu Ruolan walked up and handed the long thermos to Zhang Yilong.

"Thank you, Miss Xu, you are too kind! Then I will accept it!" Zhang Yilong took it happily. He was really touched. Apart from his mother and sister, no woman seemed to be so considerate to her, let alone

It's a woman I just met.

"You're welcome, it's nothing. I don't know anything else, I just know how to cook and eat." Xu Ruolan said with a sweet smile, looking particularly charming like that.

Zhang Yilong replied seriously: "Being able to cook delicious food is a great skill. I envy you very much!"

"You're honored." Xu Ruolan said modestly, then she took her daughter's hand and personally sent Zhang Yilong out.

"Miaomiao, see you uncle." Xu Ruolan said.

Miaomiao obediently waved to Zhang Yilong and said in a sweet voice: "Goodbye, uncle."

"Goodbye, Miaomiao." Zhang Yilong waved goodbye. The little girl in front of him was so cute. He just said that it would be great if he had such a daughter in the future.

After saying that, he was about to turn around and walk away. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Miaomiao let go of her mother's hand and ran over quickly.

Zhang Yilong seemed to have telepathy with her. When he saw this, he immediately crouched down. Sure enough, Miaomiao whispered in his ear again: "Uncle, don't buy dolls when you come next time. I have those things in the house."

There are a lot of them, but if I don’t play with them, they will be wasted. Mom said that if you waste things, you are not a good boy.”

"Ah?" Zhang Yilong was surprised. He didn't expect that this was what the other party whispered this time, so he asked gently, "Then what do you want? If you tell me, uncle will buy it for you."

Miaomiao shook her head and said, "I don't want anything. Many uncles and aunts came to see me and gave me things. In fact, I don't like them."

"Then what is your favorite thing?" Zhang Yilong asked curiously.

Miaomiao's innocence and innocence infected him. Although the child was small, she seemed to be extremely intelligent and not like an ordinary little girl.

"I don't know. I'll tell you when I think of it." Miaomiao said with a tight little face, looking very serious, which made Zhang Yilong couldn't help but smile. It was really a childish thing, he said whatever came to his mind.

No hesitation at all.

Seeing Miaomiao and Zhang Yilong talking quietly and acting very intimate, Xu Ruolan and Aunt Xiao standing next to them looked at each other in surprise.

Aunt Xiao couldn't help laughing and said: "Ruolan, Miaomiao had a very lively chat with Mr. Zhang just now. The two of them were whispering, and I don't know what they said. I feel that Mr. Zhang is like your relative."

, Miaomiao was very happy when he came. I rarely see children be so affectionate when facing strangers."

Xu Ruolan smiled and said: "Maybe Miaomiao also knows that the other party saved her."

"Well, the child is like you and has spirituality." Aunt Xiao nodded in agreement.

Xu Ruolan stared at her daughter's petite figure, with a strange light in her eyes, thoughtfully.

After talking to Zhang Yilong, Miaomiao ran back, and Zhang Yilong said goodbye to them.

After leaving Xu Ruolan's house, Zhang Yilong took a taxi back to the hotel. He didn't take much rest in the meantime. He got up and walked to the antique street after sitting for a while.

Although he was a little uneasy about the piece of jade he had gambled on yesterday, fearing that someone would pester him on the antique street, the business was done and it was useless for others to pester him. It would have been better to tell others earlier.

So that no one will always "think about" you.

After arriving at the antique street in a swaggering manner, Zhang Yilong first went to find Lao Turtle to find out more about the situation.

In the past, every time he came to the antique street, he would always look for Lao Turtle first, because the only one who had the best relationship with him on this street was Lao Turtle. Others would look down on him, because he was a novice and could not show everyone the antiques.

What are the benefits?

But now his identity seems to have undergone a subtle change. At least some people know that Zhang Moumou got lucky and got a top-quality jadeite from brick materials.

"Old turtle, what are you doing?"

When I arrived at Lao Turtle's antique stall, I saw Lao Turtle bending over to pack his things.

"Xiaolong, are you here?! You came just in time, I want to find you! I have something to tell you!" Hearing Zhang Yilong's voice, the old turtle hurriedly raised his head and looked around, and then he hurried away

He came up and pulled Zhang Yilong aside, obviously they had something important to discuss.
