After the sprouts were pinched off and lightly sautéed in a pan until translucent, the batter was poured into the center of the pan and slowly spread thinly. After frying one side over medium heat, she shook her wrist and wiggled her arms rather airily. The pancake curled up off the edge of the pan, flipped in mid-air, and landed firmly.
“Looks like the technique hasn’t regressed.” She raised her hand to wipe the sweat, “In the future, I might consider opening up a night market and spreading pancakes to sell for money.”
Stacking the bean sprout pancakes one on top of the other, she placed them neatly on a plate, garnishing the top one with ketchup. She also rummaged through the fridge and added sliced bamboo shoots, fungus, and carrots to stir-fry a veggie trio, then cooked a clear soup with the mushrooms.
One entree, one stir-fry and one soup seemed a bit perfunctory compared to the usual four dishes and one soup he requested. But today was the day he said he would take her out with him in the afternoon, so lunch had to be quick.
“What’s this?” He nudged the plate of pancakes with his chin, “What’s on top?”
“Bean sprout pancakes, ah, with ketchup on top.” She watched him pick up his chopsticks and poke at the pancake and couldn’t help but bare her teeth and throw a blank stare, “This is delicious.” Adding leeks and eggs and frying with a little lard makes it even more flavorful.
Seeing him pull the top piece of pancake apart, only taking the center pieces. She skimmed her lips, plucked the pancake with ketchup into her bowl, divided it into smaller pieces with a spoon, added more ketchup to the pancake, and chewed hard, stealing a moment to glare at him as she did so. I really don’t know whether this man has taste buds or not, if not seasoned, this pancake is bland and tasteless, but at the expense of him still gnawing happily.
The vegetarian beast, one day she will destroy him.
She was going to destroy him, there was no doubt about it!
“Damn it, why is it so tight?” Ya Xiao gritted her teeth and tugged at the clothes on her body with her hands and feet, “What the hell kind of dress, what kind of broken high heels, I’ll be damned banquet!” She should have known that he was up to no good, when she said she would bring her to the banquet, her heart was in a state of flux. According to Little White Speech’s standard routine, she would be experiencing the standard package of a sparrow turning into a phoenix right now.
Everyone said that after the sparrow turns into a phoenix, it will be so beautiful that it will kill a piece of it, but before it changes, the sparrow has to pull out all its own feathers and then insert the phoenix feathers, how much it must hurt.
She panted and looked to the side of the floor mirror, the oval mirror reflects her cloaked in a mess, the red halter dress has been fiddled with crumpled. She hated it, lifted it upward, smoothed out the wrinkles, then looked sideways and couldn’t help but look at it.
Heavens, but only after banning meat and vegetables for a while, she had lost weight like this, not only had her waist slimmed down, but even her breasts had shrunk. If it wasn’t for the two thin shoulder straps, this gown would have slid down to the floor.
She bit her lip, not having the courage to wear this dress out of the fitting room. She only had to sneak out a head, whispering to the clerk to greet her, “Please, this one is a bit too big, adjust a smaller size.”
Not waiting for the clerk to answer, the man sitting not far away spoke, “Come out, let me take a look.”
Scratch that, the bamboo pole topped with a red streamer has a hairy look! She thought hatefully, her face smiled hypocritically, “No need to look, I don’t know what I’m wearing myself, it’s indeed small.” Speaking the clerk handed another piece over, she hurriedly took it, turtle shrinking back to her head.
Bad luck ah ……
Just now the red one was too big, now this gown is too small, tightly hooped on the body. The curves were bumpy now, and she, too, couldn’t walk. She took a deep breath and before she could change her breath, she heard a very small popping sound from behind her.
Looking up at the sky, a silent internal cow.
Breathlessly she peeked out, “Please, another one, this one’s too small. Uh ……”
“Come out and let me see.” He was holding his chest at the moment, standing straight in the doorway of the fitting room with a rather aggressive stance.
“No way.” How ugly to be strangled so tightly! She repeated her trick with the intention of shrinking her head and head, but she didn’t expect that this dead man would actually slap on the door, and stuck her head outside the door in a raw manner.
She let out a miserable scream, “Neck is going to break, break ow!”
“Out or not?”
Despicable, shameless, nasty, cheap, childish, asshole …… She hated that she could not put all the curses she knew on him, had she ever seen such a vicious man?
“Out, out.” She moved out holding her neck with extreme reluctance, “Look, look at it!” In all sincerity, this black strapless gown style is very good, generous design and cut will be her delicate curves baked more and more concave and convex. However, because the dress was one size too small, it had a tight-fitting flavor on her body, especially her breasts looked extra full and rounded, which could simply pop off the eyeballs.
“Ms. Yang’s skin is so good, white and tender, wearing black is more than appropriate.” The clerk praised, “This dress is indeed a bit small, wait a moment, I’ll exchange it for a larger one for you. The curve of your legs is also superb, you can try our new shoes this season, and your temperament is very suitable.”
The cold air in the store was turned on sufficiently, but she felt that the man was looking at her with eyes like a fiery flame. Extremely uncomfortable to hold her arms, cover a piece of □, “I told you it’s too small, you have to see it.” Moreover, he was not the only man in the store, there were also three or two male guests accompanying their female companions to pick out clothes. Although her this look is not to make a fool of herself, but also attracted a lot of sidelong glances.
His face was slightly hazy, and he stepped forward to block her without any trace, not moving like a mountain, “Still not going in.”
Listening to his tone, as if it was she herself who wanted to run out into the world. She huffed and pulled the door open, and was about to close it when his voice scurried in again like a small snake, “You should lose weight.
“You should lose some weight.”
Scumbag!
Go die die!
The dinner was held in a high class club with high privacy, not many people came, but all of them had extraordinary temperament.
Clothes and sideburns, full of rich and luxurious atmosphere makes her a little uncomfortable to straighten her back, whispered inquiring, “What need to pay attention to no?” If she had made a fool of herself, he would have strangled her alive.
He turned his head sideways, his eyes slid from her pretty nose to her beautifully curved collarbone, a slight “Just smile.”
She breathed a sigh of relief, surely she was being asked to be a vase. Since the requirements were so simple, of course she had to dutifully smile and smile and smile and follow him around, graciously and appropriately. She had to admit that even in this place of crowns, Shan Yanxiu could still easily catch the eyes of others, a center of gravity that could not be ignored. Tonight, her cooperation was so high, and her behavior so appropriate, that he frequently glanced at her with approval, thinking that she was a teachable child.
Only she knew very well in her own heart that she was smiling so purely not because of the sight of the many famous elites or the unadulterated glances of praise she was receiving, but for the huge long row of food at one end of the banquet hall.
According to her long-distance mid-distance and close-distance visual sweeps, while it was mostly cold food, there was a good amount of meat and seafood, as well as delicate cake bites, all of which she had been severely lacking in intake lately. She pushed down the waves surging inside her and tried to keep her surface egg-butt in place as she made her way through the hall to the terrace and around to the cold food area with grace and charm. Using the cover of the crowd, she glanced at Shan Yanxiu from afar and saw that he was still standing in the crowd talking and laughing. She clenched her fists, not much time to grab a mooch!
Those that are too big of a target, can’t be moved. Those that are troublesome to eat, can’t move. Too strong a flavor, can’t move. In a matter of seconds, she had seen her target and struck quickly.
Two tuna salad protein towers and three shrimp cups with Thai sauce, as if a switch had been flicked in her brain, she was inexplicably energized, and not caring about what she had previously considered what could be moved and what could not be moved, she copied two bites of anything that looked good to her. What kind of melon ham, what kind of cheese chicken rolls, what kind of smoked duck breast mixed with nuts, she ate more and more excited, her face flushed.
It was true that seafood and other things were the most favorite, and meat and other things were the most powerful!
After nibbling on a chestnut egg roll, she licked her fingers, and her gaze fell on the plump turkey in the center section of the table. Generally speaking, such a whole turkey appeared in such a business banquet is mostly for decorative purposes, almost no one will go to eat. And she had tasted the turkey meat, it was tough and faggy, not really tasty. Just her recent lack of oil and water is very powerful, such a visual impact of the sudden appearance of the turkey, how can not shock her weak heart and injured appetite?
Roasted so beautifully, it would be a shame not to eat it for the people!
She slowly moved her steps, approaching closer and closer without a trace. When she was half a meter away from the turkey, she didn’t forget to look up alertly and look around. The dangerous man was still at the center of all the attention, still talking and laughing with the people. She breathed a sigh of relief and approached the fat chicken with renewed vigor. Oh, what a fat chicken leg, still oily and shiny! If only she could take it home …… She squeezed her handbag violently after eyeballing the leg’s length, width, height and thickness.
There was hope of smuggling back – a leg!
When the waiter at the table wasn’t looking, she speedily sliced off the coveted turkey leg with the silver table knife that came with her dinner plate.
It was a heavy leg!
Overjoyed, she pulled out her napkin and was about to wrap it up and tuck it into her handbag when something suddenly hooked her skirt and she slipped. She reacted quickly by pressing down on the edge of the table to keep herself from falling, only to have the silver table knife slip from the folds of the tablecloth to the floor, clinking loudly and attracting a lot of attention.
On the floor, a white puppy was nibbling on the huge fat chicken leg at her feet with a savory smack. It turned out to be this little thing ……
The waiter who was standing on the side pretending to be dead rushed up at this time, with a concerned expression and asked, “Are you okay, are you okay, do I need to help you to sit on the sofa?”
“It’s fine, I’m fine,” she couldn’t help but laugh when she saw the little white dog seemingly frightened as it burrowed under the dining table, not forgetting to drag the chicken leg along with it, “You guys better take this little thing out first, it’s freaking it out.”
“What happened?” He asked in a hushed voice as he stood behind her at some point.
She put away her smile, glancing at the turkey with a missing leg out of the corner of her eye, and replied extremely calmly, “Nothing, I saw that this dog was hungry, so I cut up a chicken leg for it.”
He looked at the ground that was carried away not forgetting to hold the chicken leg of the little doggy, the huge chicken leg sinks down will its little head are hanging shrugged down, can not help but purse lips smile, “You heart of mind is quite good.”
“It’s okay,” she straightened her spine, “Compassion is in all people, it’s just hungry …… too hungry.” Unconsciously licking her somewhat dry lips, her gaze fell uncontrollably to the table above the turkey with only one leg left, a good fat leg oh, also with honey flash ……
His right index finger arched against his lower lip, his eyes slanted over, “This little thing is really hungry, isn’t it?”
“Uh-huh.” Subconsciously, he answered.
“Puppy dog is still kinda pretty looking, isn’t he?”
“Uh-huh.” Unconsciously answered.
“Where do you think it tastes best?”
“Dog legs!”
