During the hot pot meal that night, everyone was assigned a small basket with their favorite ingredients and sauces.
This was specially arranged by Xia Qianchen because she was afraid that Xia Qianzao would not be able to tell the difference due to poor memory.
Hot pot is also a mandarin duck pot, one side is spicy and the other side is light.
Leng Tianchen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw that the food in his little basket was all his favorite food.
"I remember, these are Master Leng's favorite foods." Xia Qianzao's calm smile was really deceptive, like a lady.
Leng Tianchen was not as disgusted and resistant as before: "You remember it very clearly."
"Of course I will never forget what happened to Master Leng."
It's just that Xia Qianzao's overly flattering attitude was different from what he remembered.
"It seems you really know my brother quite well," Leng Anqi said, "My brother is so picky about food that he can't even tell the difference between the servants who have served him for 6 years. How do you remember it?"
Xia Qian is learning and selling now: "There are too many foods he doesn't like, so I just have to remember the ones he likes to eat."
"..."
"Moreover, some things are remembered not by memory, but by the heart."
Leng Tianchen's eyes flashed slightly——
[Leng Tianchen, you said you like me, is this how you like me? Why did you forget what I said repeatedly in the blink of an eye! 】
【My memory is not very good.】
[Some things are remembered not by memory, but by the heart!]
In fact, it was Xia Qianchen who told Leng Tianchen that her home phone number had changed and she told him not to call again.
But Leng Tianchen pretended to have lost his memory and called as usual the next day...
He called Xia Qianchen on his personal cell phone every day and she didn't answer, so he would call Xia Qianchen's house, causing a lot of trouble.
The Xia family didn't dare to really change their numbers. If Leng Tianchen didn't expose the lies Xia Qianchen made up, they had to pretend to have "amnesia" again and again.
"Master Leng, why don't you eat?"
Xia Qianzao picked up a piece of beef and was about to put it into the pot when she suddenly felt a little sluggish. She didn't know whether to put it on the spicy side or not.
Xia Qianchen talked too much in the kitchen just now, how could she remember it?
Xia Qianzao chose one of the two, thinking that Leng Tianchen must have a spicy food because of his fiery personality, so he had to let it go.
"Ahem." Xia Qianchen suddenly coughed.
Xia Qianzao put the beef slices on the less spicy side.
Young Emperor Nangong glanced at the two of them with sharp eyes, then fell on his basket——
Naturally, these are his favorite foods.
"I prepared yours." Xia Qianchen poured red wine into his goblet.
The smile on Leng Anqi's face immediately froze, and she found that her basket was full of the things she hated to eat.
"Who prepared mine?"
No one paid attention to her.
In fact, the food in the 4 baskets is arranged neatly:
The bottom layer is meat, the second layer is animal offal, the third layer is meatballs, etc., and the fourth layer is vegetables...
At first glance, it is obvious that the style comes from one person, Xia Qianchen.
"I'm sorry, Miss Leng, yours was prepared by me," Xia Qianchen said deliberately, "I don't know much about your preferences, so I just dropped by casually."
How could you not understand? When Leng Tianchen and Xia Qianchen went on a date before, she would often make sudden surprises and shamelessly add extra points to the table.
Leng Anqi was about to have a fit when Young Emperor Nangong gave him an unhappy look: "Don't be picky about food."
"..."
The hot pot was filled with mist, Xia Qianzao was serving dishes to Leng Tianchen, and Xia Qianchen was also talking to Young Emperor Nangong——
It was a harmonious meal, except for Leng Anqi...
Because I didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere between Leng Tianchen and Xia Qianzao, I had to swallow my anger. Xia Qianchen, you are dead!
After dinner, the two women scrambled to clear the table.
"I'll do it." Xia Qianzao thought to herself that Leng Tianchen must like hard-working women.
"I'll do it." Xia Qianchen stepped hard on her feet, his eyes hinting at why she was still staying here. If she didn't leave quickly, this was not the time to show off. Don't show off too much.
"Why are you stepping on me?" Xia Qianzao lowered his voice and said displeasedly.
"You got what you wanted, you can leave as soon as possible and go back and review carefully."
Xia Qianzao's vengeful personality stomped hard on Xia Qianchen's feet.
"Don't worry, I will definitely review it carefully."
Saying that, he also crushed it.
Xia Qianchen felt pain, but couldn't say anything.
Leng Anqi opened the terrace door: "The most enjoyable thing is to eat and drink enough and look at the sea view under the stars. Brother, Xia Qianzao, come here."
Xia Qianzao then let go of Xia Qianchen's feet and rushed over happily.
Young Emperor Nangong's green eyes were full of excitement, and he did not miss this episode, his dark green eyes were thoughtful.
He had met Xia Qianzao several times, and his personality was never what it is today...
Xia Qianchen took the tableware to the kitchen and saw that the toes of her slippers had been stepped on.
Fortunately, Xia Qianzao also wore slippers, this woman...
As soon as she put on her apron, a pair of hands hugged her from behind.
"Leave these matters to the servants."
Xia Qianchen was silent for a moment and said: "Anyway, I just finished eating, it's just a matter of convenience...how did I perform tonight?"
The hands froze slightly.
Even though I knew she was trying to express herself, hearing her say it out loud still made my heart sting.
"If you perform well, are there any rewards?"
Young Emperor Nangong's jaw tightened: "What do you want this time? Mr. Xia's heart?"
"No," Xia Qianchen said, "Can you return my diary and necklace that you locked in the safe?"
Young Emperor Nangong was slightly surprised.
"They are important to me."
"More important than Mr. Xia's heart?"
"I just feel that my current performance cannot be redeemed for a big reward, step by step," Xia Qianchen said with a guilty conscience, "My dad's heart is broken unless I perform better to make you happy."
"What performance?"
"I haven't thought of it yet, but it will definitely make you happy."
In other words, his current "use value" includes not only Mr. Xia, but also his diary and chain.
"You think bandaging my wounds and washing the dishes are just a good show?" Young Emperor Nangong sneered.
"You missed one thing, I even took the initiative to kiss you."
"..."
"Okay, since it's not enough, I'll just keep showing off," Xia Qianchen thought for a moment, "I thought of a good idea."
"explain."
"I know a clockmaker. He is a clockmaker from the last era. He has a collection of many ancient clocks. He may have parts of your clock. I think he might help you repair the clock." Xia Qianchen looked at it.
He said, "If you fix the clock, wouldn't you be happy?"
