Flowers bloom silently

Chapter 19
She dug out a set of clean sheets and quilts in the closet, replaced the ones on the bed, and then wiped the dust off the furniture with a damp rag. When she was wiping the bedside table, she was about to pick up a photo frame that had fallen on the counter, But Haoxuan stopped him.

"Don't move that thing!"

An Keer turned her head to look at Haoxuan who was standing by the door at some time, and gently put the photo back in the frame before she had time to turn it upside down and put it back upside down.

An Keer guessed the contents of the photo, thought of Haoxuan's life experience, did not speak, and continued to clean up other places silently.

She swept away the garbage in the bedroom, and it returned to its original cleanliness. After spraying some air freshener, An Keer said to Haoxuan: "Go to the balcony to take a breath first, and you can go to the room to sleep later. Yes. I'll pack it up soon, drag it and leave!"

Haoxuan obediently went to the balcony, he leaned against the sliding door of the balcony, watching Ankeer work sideways, blowing the night breeze.

"Aren't you afraid I'm a bad guy?" he asked.

"Have you ever played any tricks on me?" An Keer smiled.

"You look pretty good, and you are so stupid that you dare to be alone in a room with someone like me, so you're not afraid of being eaten?"

"Hey, don't scare me." An Keer squinted at Hao Xuan, who had been watching her work, and pouted. "You're not like that at all."

"Then, what kind of person do you think I am?" Hao Xuan was curious.

"A fool." An Keer couldn't help laughing after finishing speaking.

"You're an idiot!" Hao Xuan couldn't stand her rebuttal.

"In the first place, if you say I'm stupid, you're stupid." An Ke'er didn't know what was going on between Haoxuan and Cheng, but how could he confront Cheng head-on by himself like this?Regardless of the reason, Cheng, whose leg was broken by him, obviously tolerated him, so why did he push forward and add more troubles to Cheng?Does it have to make Cheng so angry that he will be willing to give up after killing him?
"You... have you heard something?" Feeling that there was something in An Ke'er's words, Hao Xuan frowned slightly.

"Your affairs have been published in the newspapers. You are such a big man, you have hands and feet to make money, why do you want to rob?" An Keer pretended to be confused, she knew that Haoxuan did those things against Cheng and the others, but this She really can't get involved.

"You won't understand!" Hao Xuan turned his face to the side of the balcony, and cast his eyes into the black night sky.

An Keer bit her lower lip lightly, and stopped talking.

During the cleaning of the house, Butler Dai called her once, but she didn't want Haoxuan to know that she had contact with Cheng, so she didn't answer.

It was nearly eight o'clock, and the house was finally tidied up. An Keer carried a few big bags of garbage in her hands and said good night to Haoxuan, then left.She threw the garbage she took with her into the public trash can in the alley and cycled to the pizzeria.The shop owner's face was not to mention how ugly, before she could resign, the other party paid her salary for the past few days and told her to leave.

On the way home, An Keer called Steward Dai back and asked when she would be home?What materials do you need his help to prepare for the supper in the city?

An Keer knew in her heart that the main purpose of Butler Dai's call was not to supper, but to use the butler to find out why she had spent several hours at the pizzeria to resign.

An Keer went to the supermarket, picked out a box of premium preserved eggs and brought them back to the villa.

Just after entering the courtyard, Dai Mengmeng, who just came back from outside, caught up with her on a bicycle, and the other party got off the car, pushing the car and walking side by side with her.

"Well, can I tell you something?" Dai Mengmeng's voice melted into the night breeze, very softly.

"Huh?" An Keer, who was thinking about something, heard her voice, but didn't hear what she was saying.

Dai Mengmeng deliberately stopped, and An Keer also stopped with her, facing her.Dai Mengmeng carefully looked around, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, she said again: "I saw you and Haoxuan together on the street before."

"Oh, he was injured, I took him to the hospital." Seeing Dai Mengmeng's expression was wrong, An Keer realized something, and explained, "He often ordered pizza, so he delivered it a few times."

"Have you made friends with him?" Dai Mengmeng asked.

"It's not considered friends, but I know a lot." An Keer shook her head.

"That's good, you sent him to the hospital because you saw him hurt?" Seeing An Keer nodding, Dai Mengmeng took two steps forward, her voice lowered, "You don't want to deal with him in the future, You know how Young Master Cheng was injured, right? If you let the young masters know that you have a relationship with Haoxuan, they will kill you. "

An Ke'er couldn't help swallowing when she heard the following words: "Don't scare me-"

"No, when I was in school, Haoxuan and I talked a little more, Zimo ignored me for a week. I don't know the details of some things, but their relationship is really bad. If you want to live here Come on, you'd better listen to my advice. You haven't seen what Zimo looks like when he's angry, have you? He's not the same as Xihe..." Just as he was talking, a red luxury car drove in from outside, wearing Seeing the car, Mengmeng immediately became nervous, and stopped talking with An Keer.

When the red car passed by the two girls, Zimo, with a lollipop in his mouth, looked at them through the lowered window, and Dai Mengmeng waved to Zimo, smiling like an angel.The corners of Zimo's lips hooked slightly, and a slight smile appeared in response.But to An Keer, who greeted her with a smiling face, he gave him a cold glance, and lightly brushed his face away.

Regarding Zimo's indifference, An Keer shrugged indifferently.

After entering the house, the three brothers Cheng, Xihe and Zimo were all sitting in the living room reading a magazine. They seemed to be talking about the characters on the cover of the magazine. Xihe made some joke, and the other two brothers burst out laughing.

An Ke'er has been here for a week, and it's the first time to see the brothers get together so happily.She didn't bother them either, and when the city looked at her, she just smiled and nodded as a greeting, and then went straight to the kitchen.

Put the preserved eggs on the kitchen counter, while Anke washes rice and cooks porridge.While she was peeling the eggs, Butler Dai came in and asked her if she needed help.

"It's all simple things, I can handle them by myself. Is there any taboo in the city?" She peeled two preserved eggs, put them on the chopping board and cut them into small pieces.

"He doesn't like things that are too sweet, especially for supper." Butler Dai answered her, looking at the beautifully cut petal-shaped preserved eggs, he couldn't help worrying, "Masters have never touched this thing before, it's the first time I do it." I don’t know if the city can accept this.”

"I mentioned it to him in the morning. Since I want to change the taste, I have to try to accept it. It's okay, I will prepare some apple pancakes. If he doesn't like preserved egg porridge, he can eat apple pancakes." An Keer also made second-hand Prepare.

An Ke'er's carefulness reassured Dai Steward, and he didn't stay any longer and went about his own business.

The lively living room became quiet again, and they seemed to have dispersed.

The preserved egg porridge in the porcelain pot is full of fragrance and has been cooked.An Keer poured some sesame oil, sprinkled an appropriate amount of salt and stirred it evenly, then turned off the fire and set it aside to cool.

She mixed the thin noodles with eggs and some water, sprinkled salt, sugar, pepper and other seasonings, then took an apple out of the refrigerator, peeled it, cut it into very small pieces and put it in the thin noodles.As she fired up the apple pie, she noticed someone leaning against the kitchen door staring at her - no doubt a startle to her attentive heart.

Xihe seemed to silently 'appreciate' her cooking for a long time, and he couldn't help amused by the way she was startled.

An Ke'er's cheeks puffed slightly, ignoring Xihe, put some butter into the hot pan, then poured a part of the noodles mixed with diced apples, and fried it slowly over low heat.

"This is your way of currying favor with the city? It's very common." Xihe simply went to her side, looking left and right, "What is that dark thing in the porridge? Are you going to give it to my elder brother? "

An Keer glanced at the prickly-eyed Xihe, and pressed her lips together to keep silent - she has also felt Xihe's temper in the past few days, if she contradicts him, he will get worse.She and him have nothing to argue about, the relationship between the two is already bad, if they add fuel to the flames, it is unknown what the result will be.

The apple pancakes are delicious, and the diced apples on the surface have become soft and golden, and a little juice is coming out of the steaming hot, making people salivate.

An Ker cut the apple pancakes into triangles with a shovel and put them on a plate.The porridge in the pot was still very hot, so she filled a bowl, sprinkled some chopped green onion, put the bowl and pancakes on a tray, and prepared spoons and chopsticks.

Butler Dai appeared in the kitchen in time, and she told him that the supper in the city was ready, whether it was to be delivered to the room or the other party came to eat in the restaurant.

Butler Dai said that the city would come down, and then took the food on the tray to the restaurant.

An Keer was about to fry the remaining apple pancakes. Zimo walked in and took a can of Coke from the refrigerator. Smelling the aroma of porridge and apple pancakes, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you cooking?"

"Preserved egg porridge and apple pancake, would you like to try it?" Although Zimo was cold and reticent, he at least cared about her when she was in a bad mood.An Keer didn't dislike Zimo, so she asked him while frying apple pie.

"Preserved egg porridge?" Zimo leaned over curiously, looking at the porridge in the pot, "The black one is preserved egg?"

"Hmm. Shall I serve it for you?" An Keer asked.

Zimo nodded: "I'll go to the restaurant to eat with my elder brother."

"Okay, I'll send it to you later."

Zimo went out, and Xihe, who was watching the excitement, muttered, put his hands in his trouser pockets and was unhappy: Isn't Zimo going to stand on the same front with him?Why do you have to be so polite to her? What's so delicious about something that ordinary people eat?

"Do you want it?" An Keer asked, squinting at the unhappy Xihe.

"I don't want to eat this kind of thing, who knows if it is poisonous?"

An Keer rolled her eyes - well, she knew the answer.

She fried the last apple pie, put it on a plate and served two bowls of preserved egg porridge and went to the restaurant.

Before the city came down, An Keer brought Zimo’s preserved egg porridge and pancakes to Zimo. The other party scooped up half a spoonful of preserved egg porridge and put it into his mouth hesitantly—
"Well, it tastes good." Chewing the unremarkable preserved egg, Zimo nodded in praise, but when he saw Xihe who came out of the kitchen and glared at him, he immediately stopped talking and continued to drink the porridge.

"The apple pancakes may not be the same as those made by the chef, but they are still delicious." An Keer hasn't eaten home-style food for a long time, even if she made it herself, she couldn't wait to stuff an apple into her mouth pancakes.

Zimo picked up a piece of apple pancake and put it into his mouth. The crispy and sweet taste of the diced apples made his mouth linger. There was a smile on his face that An Keer saw when he was chatting with Dai Mengmeng in the coffee shop.

"Yo, it's all ready to eat!" Cheng Cheng, who was pushed out of the elevator by Butler Dai, laughed when he saw the two eating happily in the restaurant.

An Keer wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, and smiled towards the city.

When Cheng passed by Xihe who was about to go upstairs, he stopped him: "This is the first time Ke'er cooks for everyone, how can you leave without eating?"

"I can't eat that thing after seeing it..."

"Since Zimo had a good time eating, it means that he is not bad. You can't just look at the surface of everything, and what looks good on the surface may not be useful." Cheng interrupted Xihe, and he continued in a tone that the other party could not resist, "Go and try !"

Xihe narrowed his eyes half-hidden under the fine silver hair, reluctantly followed Cheng to the restaurant.
