Rebirth in a prosperous world

Chapter 428 Eating dumplings for the first time (1)
"Leave it alone, I'll serve it."

Just as Gu Yan was about to take the plate with dumplings, she was stopped by a pair of big hands, accompanied by the usual low voice of a man.

Gu Yan turned her head to look at the man, feeling a little helpless, but her heart was filled with sweetness.It's been like this for the past few days. Every time the man serves the dishes, the man pushes her aside to come by himself.It's a bit of a fuss, but she just loves it.

Watching the man pick up the dumplings, Gu Yan also picked up the rest consciously, and followed him to the restaurant step by step.

Listening to the footsteps behind her, Lou Zhen's lips, which were always tightly pressed, also slightly lifted.

When everything was put on the table, Gu Yan looked at the dumplings with different characteristics, and felt a little guilty: "How about I taste the taste first?"

"It's okay, I'll come."

Lou Zhen picked up a dumpling and took a bite.

Gu Yan looked at him nervously.

"delicious."

"Really?" Gu Yan was somewhat skeptical.It's not that she doesn't believe in Lou Zhen, it's just that this person, no matter what she does, she always says good things, and never mentions a bad word.I'm really worried that she will be spoiled if this continues.

"Yeah." Seeing Gu Yan's nervous look, Lou Zhen laughed, and handed over the remaining half dumpling: "Try it, it's really good."

Gu Yan opened her mouth to swallow the dumpling that Lou Zhen handed over, chewed it half-believingly, and widened her eyes in surprise: "Really, it tastes good."

Lou Zhen's eyes were full of smiles: "Yes. It's delicious."

Gu Yan was satisfied now, and her little tail began to wag happily again: "I was worried about the bad taste, so I wanted to secretly eat one to taste the taste first. Who knows that you came back before it was too late, but fortunately, I am good at cooking , there is talent in this, otherwise I would have to drink northwest wind at noon."

"Then, this is vinegar and chili oil. It tastes better when you eat it standing up." Gu Yan pushed the small dish containing the seasoning towards Lou Zhen.

There was something that both of them knew but didn't say.

This was Lou Zhen's first time eating dumplings.

Yes, the first time.

It's not that I don't like it, but that I don't have a chance.

Although there are now dumpling restaurants everywhere, you can find delicious Northeast dumplings and Songhuajiang dumplings as long as you want to eat them.But sometimes, what people eat is not only the taste, but also a feeling.Dumplings, in particular, are the most suitable food for a group of people to eat around a table when the family is reunited, and they pay more attention to the feeling of home.

But this is exactly what Lou Zhen lacks.His definition of family warmth disappeared with his mother's death a few years ago.The rest is indifference and hatred.

With his temperament, he is definitely not the kind of person who would gobble up dumplings outside.He pays attention to image, not deliberately, but a kind of arrogance in his bones.Just like the ancient emperors, no matter where they are, they will always maintain their aloofness, the same reason.

Gu Yan knew this by chance, and making dumplings suddenly today was also her deliberate arrangement.They spent too little time together, and it was a rare opportunity to cook him a meal like this.Although it is not something I am good at, it is very satisfying to watch the other party's focused expression when eating.

"I bought dumpling skins ready-made in the supermarket. I made the stuffing myself, adding shrimp, pork, and tofu. Now I don't know how to knead dough to make dumpling skins. I will learn from Aunt Zhang and the others when I go back. It will be next time. It will definitely taste better than this next time."

Gu Yan said while eating.

Lou Zhen ate very seriously. When he looked at the girl across from him, his dark eyes suddenly became much brighter.He swallowed the food in his mouth, and then said: "This is already delicious."

"It can be even better." Gu Yan was full of enthusiasm: "I will be a chef certificate tester in the future, how can I take this kind of thing out for people to taste. This is the patent of the people closest to me."

"Brother Tai, are you busy? I'm Lan'an."

Thinking that her daughter has been away for so many days, and the company's affairs are handled by others, Gu Lan'an still thinks that she should call someone to care.

Seeing the phone ringing, Tai Zhong just glanced there casually.Then, the next second, he turned around abruptly as if he had discovered something unbelievable.When he was finally sure that the name that jumped on the screen was what he had in mind, he was so nervous that his hands trembled a little.

"Lan'an, it's me."

Tai Zhong coughed a few times, cleared his throat before speaking.

"Are you busy now? Will the phone call delay your work?" Gu Lan'an asked carefully.

Just listening to that soft voice, Tai Zhong felt peaceful in his heart.He closed his eyes, leaned back against the back of the chair, with an indescribable tenderness on his face: "I'm not busy. I'm fine."

"Thank you for this period of time. Xiao Yan is not here, and everything is on your shoulders. It must be very hard."

"This is what I should do." Tai Zhong responded kindly.

The two chatted casually for a few more words.After all, he is not a naive and romantic teenager who will be at a loss for words when he talks.Even if they are old friends who have known each other for decades, there are not many opportunities to communicate in private like this.

Even just a phone call would be enough for Tai Zhong to be satisfied, which was an extravagant wish he never dared to imagine before.He even once thought that he was going to end his life with such regrets, but he didn't expect that half of his life would turn around.

He used to think that if one day he could have a little personal contact with Lan'an, knowing her situation and knowing that she was doing well would be enough.Now, he found out.The human heart is greedy, and this greed has no limit.In the past, I only wanted to be satisfied by looking at her from a distance, but now I want more.

"Cough cough."

Just when Gu Lan'an was a little confused and didn't know what to say next, a man's suppressed cough came from the phone.

"Brother Tai, are you sick?"

"No, cough, cough, cough." After speaking, there was another burst of coughing.

"I'm fine." Tai Zhong coughed a few times while covering the phone, and then said in a concealed manner.
