Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 395 Crescent Hotel ([-])

395 Chapter 395 Crescent Hotel ([-])
Ever since he entered the private room behind the screen, every word Mrs. Huo said was aimed at Wu Xie, which made him stunned for a while. The old lady was obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the old jealousy was really getting out of hand. Wu Xie Xie secretly complained in his heart, "Damn it, it wasn't my grandpa who cheated on me back then. I'm not my grandpa, so there's no point taking it out on me. What the hell is this!"

Although he was helpless, he could only endure it and said: "Mother-in-law, we are not joking. There is no need to alarm my grandma about this matter."

The old lady immediately said: "Are you kidding? I, Huo Xiangu, never joke when I am in business. Your grandma and I are kids. She has not even seen me for decades. She lives in that ghost place in Hangzhou. I let her Come and see me, what’s the joke?”

She followed her and said seriously: "This matter is settled as it is. You go back and discuss it with your grandma. If your grandma refuses to come forward, I guess this matter will not be serious for you. You should rest as soon as possible. Let's go." If your grandma doesn't come, you won't come to see me. I like your things, but my old woman doesn't lack one of these."

When Wu Xie heard this, he thought to himself, "Hey, why is this old lady so shameless?" He was so anxious that he sweated and his eyes couldn't help but look at the fat man.

The fat man winked at him and said softly: "She is a scumbag, and you are a scumbag too. Sit down first and then talk."

I picked up the knife and fork at hand, inserted the fork into the fragrant piece of steak on the plate in front of me with one hand, and cut it with a knife with the other hand.

Judging from the cut surface of the meat, the outermost layer inside is a thin brown and crispy skin, followed by a circle of light brown and gray cooked meat that has been evenly heated and fried, and the middle part is mixed with a small amount of pink and tender meat. Not to mention the meat, this steak is really well fried, medium rare, the heat is just right, you bite into it, the meat is juicy, fresh and tender, and has a good chewing feel, the black pepper sauce is also good, add a As for plate presentation, his skills are really good enough to open a steak shop, and the business should be good.

I said: "This fried steak looks simple, but in fact it requires a lot of attention. It must be able to quickly heat the surface of the beef without breaking the fibers inside the meat. The experience and skills of the chef are still very high. It seems that , you have cooked a lot these years."

He also poured himself a glass of red wine and was swirling the red wine in the glass. After listening to my words, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

I chewed the piece of meat in my mouth, reached out to pick up my wine glass, and smelled the wine in the glass. I also gently shook the glass a few times to fully release the fruity aroma in the red wine.

Zhang Rishan looked at me with a smile and said, "How is it? Does it taste good?"

I put the rim of the glass to my nose and smelled the aroma of the wine after shaking the glass. Then I went deeper into the glass to smell the aroma in the glass and said to him: "The fruity aroma of Cabernet Sauvignon is very strong. This wine It’s not too late.” He nodded affirmatively with a smile.

After a while, Zhang Rishan saw that I had almost eaten. He suddenly stood up and walked away. After a while, he brought me a bowl of canned yellow peaches. He said, "Remember you like this." He also took a thin book Put the coloring book in front of me and said: "Look at this, there is a surprise."

After hearing what the fat man said, Wu Xie felt that what he said was true. If he was thin-skinned, he couldn't fight against this old lady. He had to fight with her even if he had no shame. So he became angry and acted shamelessly. Who is afraid of whom? Ah, then I sat down on the chair in front of the old lady. My heart was pounding nervously, but I had to keep my face calm.

Wu Xie's move made the old lady frown immediately.

Wu Xie refused to admit defeat and said to her: "Mother-in-law, this matter is very important to me. You can't play with me like this. If you want to play with me like this, then I won't do it. The three of us will follow you later. You want to When you go home, we will follow you to your house. We will follow you wherever you go." After saying that, he looked up to see the old lady's reaction.

Mrs. Huo's face was extremely ugly, and she immediately asked him: "Who told you to sit down? Stand up!"

Wu Xie was stunned. Not only did the old lady ignore his words, why did she fall out with her? But since he had decided to cheat, he had to persist to the end. Besides, he was never a person who would give up halfway. He shook his head and said, "If you don't promise me, I won't stand!"

The old lady suddenly got angry and said sternly: "Axue, call Xiao Zhang Xiaoli over and get these stinky gangsters out of here."

As soon as the old lady spoke, the middle-aged woman and the little girl looked at them. The little girl looked at the old lady and stood up. Wu Xie looked confused and said to himself, just sit on a chair, why are you so angry? Yeah, this old lady is really inexplicably angry.

It was obvious at first glance that they wanted to find someone immediately. The fat man quickly stepped forward and said: "What's the matter? My young master is sitting on your broken chair. What's wrong with this chair? How can sitting on it and farting smell good?" Old lady, we are in the 21st century. The law does not punish scoundrels. If you find someone to chase us away, it will be a bad idea. My young master respects his elders. I am really a stinking scoundrel. I will start a fight later and destroy this place. I'm afraid it won't be good for your reputation, and it would be even worse if it hurts you, don't you think so?"

The little girl sneered and said: "You know nothing, this is not the place where you want to sit. What are the consequences of sitting there? You..."

The old lady suddenly waved her hand to stop the little girl from talking, and her expression gradually softened. Instead, she showed an indescribable expression and said coldly: "Let them sit. If they want to sit, let them sit."

I put a piece of peach in the bowl into my mouth, reached out and picked up the album and opened it. The picture and text printed on it were the introduction of today's auction, but when I looked at the information of this auction, my mind was a little confused. It was not an ordinary thing, so I asked, "Is it really this?" Zhang Rishan nodded.I looked at the things in the album, paused for a moment, sighed and said, "So this is the focus of today." I looked at Zhang Rishan and said, "Hey, aren't you also involved in this matter today?"

He smiled and shook his head and said, "I don't care about this a long time ago."

I looked at him for a moment, and seeing his sincere look, I asked him again: "Do you have any other news you can tell me?"

He looked at his watch and said, "The auction is about to start, why don't you go and take a look."

After he finished speaking, I smiled, and he smiled too, and I said to him: "The steak is good, but the Crescent Hotel is too boring. Since you are so free now, you can come to my place and be my boss when you have time." Chef, I am a very lively person. If you are always immersed in the past alone, you will become a weird old man."

He smiled lightly and said "Yes". I took the album and said, "Let's go, see you later." I turned around and left with Bai Hao.

After walking for a while, Bai Hao complained, "You actually asked him to be the chef just now."

I smiled and said: "He won't come. Didn't you see that the things in his room are still the same as they were decades ago? He can't let go of Zhang Qishan, so naturally he can't let go of this. Since he said he doesn't care about it, That means he won't care. He is a man of his word, and what he says can still be trusted. The most difficult person to deal with today is Huo Xiangu."

I held up the picture album and handed it to him. He opened it and said, "This thing is here, it's going to be lively."

I sighed and said, "Yes, Wu Xie has already caused trouble."

Bai Hao asked: "What did you see?"

I told him, "The funniest and scariest thing that could happen at the Crescent Hotel."

Wu Xie already felt an ominous premonition when he looked at the old lady's expression. Before he could say anything or get down to business, the whole thing was already going astray. But he firmly believed that he must persevere. , Can you endure it for a while? Now you need to calm down the atmosphere. He said: "Mother-in-law, I really do what I say. Just do your best and don't play tricks on me. The grudges between you and my grandma, I Who knows, if my grandpa did something sorry for you, how about you slap me a few times?"

The old lady didn't even look at him, she just looked at her watch and said to him: "Okay, I'm afraid of you too, young master of the Wu family, but don't ask yet. I won't say anything if you ask me now. You Sit here until 04:30, if you can sit still, I won’t make it difficult for you.”

Wu Xie said in confusion: "Sit here?"

The old lady said: "Yes, just sit here alone, don't worry, I'm sure you won't be bored." After saying that, the old lady looked downstairs, and suddenly we heard a ringing sound coming from downstairs.

Bai Hao and I quickened our pace and hurried back. When we reached the circular corridor on the second floor, we heard the ringing sound from the first floor. We knew that the auction was about to begin. They were all on the second floor of Mrs. Huo's house. In the box, Wu Xie sat down. I couldn't see them in the corridor, nor could I see the situation on the first floor, but if I went back to the first floor...

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a subtle "whoosh" sound, and something flew from in front of me. Just when the thing was about to fly in front of me, I pinched it with two fingers on my right hand, and it turned out to be a card.

My heart said, what bastard is throwing things away? Fortunately, I have recovered some psychic powers a few days ago, my skills have greatly increased, and my shooting speed has become faster, otherwise this thing would hit my face.

I looked forward and saw a man in a black suit standing straight at the door of the front compartment and waving to me. The man looked quite familiar.

I put the thing in my hand in front of me and took a look. It was a business card with good quality and a bit hard. I saw that there was an acquaintance's name written on it. I held the business card and handed it to Bai Hao. It was obvious. The guy in front of me threw it, and I immediately walked towards the place where the business card was flying.

When I got to him, I said softly: "You're crazy. If my kung fu hasn't recovered yet, your thing will hurt someone if it flies out."

The man smiled brightly, still holding the phone in his hand, and said: "No, you can't catch it, and there's Bai Hao. Okay, it's about to start. It's too late to get over now. I can see now." You got it, come in.”
