The substitute has awakened

Chapter 26

"Lao Lu, you're not in the company?" Chu Ziyu was surprised.

"without."

"Ahem, I dropped by and brought you a box of butterfly cakes." Chu Ziyu sighed, "Now that it's raining heavily, I'm trapped in your company, and I can only solve it by myself. When this thing gets cold, it's something else." Just the same taste. Then I'll die——"

"Mr. Lu, do you like spicy food?" Suddenly a familiar voice came out.

Lu Lin turned around and saw Yan Heqing leaning out his upper body from the kitchen.

He wore an apron, black, with a white sheep on it.

The black hair gradually dried, and it was really not so curly, and it hung softly on his forehead.

Lu Lin replied, "I won't eat."

Yan Heqing nodded and returned to the kitchen.

"Fuck--" Chu Ziyu screamed on the other end of the phone, "Did that just come from Master Xiao Yan? It must be! Where are you, Lao Lu?"

Lu Lin moved his phone away slightly and said, "A friend's house."

"What's going on with you guys?" Chu Ziyu's desire for gossip reached its peak, "I went to the bar yesterday and heard that Master Xiao Yan resigned. Did you ask him to resign?"

Lu Lin looked at the kitchen. He didn't know that Yan Heqing had resigned.

The last time we were at the bar, he did say something like, "You're not cut out to work in a bar."

But Lu Lin didn't think that sentence could make Yan Heqing resign. This young man was a very independent person.

"Ahem, are you going to take him to Lao Xie's wedding?" Chu Ziyu was still yelling, "Lao Xie left a suite for you, why don't you let him change it to a single bed-"

Lu Lin cut off the phone and the room finally became quiet.

After a while, Yan Heqing came out with a soup pot and a small induction cooker.

The induction cooker was bought second-hand by Yan Heqing at an electrical appliance repair place, and he polished it very clean and shiny.

The clear soup is filled with evenly sized pork balls, a few fresh tomato slices, a few cross mushrooms, and green garlic leaves.

Yan Heqing returned to the kitchen and brought two bowls of rice, two plates of peanut dipping sauce, and a basket of fresh vegetables.

A very simple hot pot, but perfect for winter nights.

"You try the pork dumplings, they are my specialty." Yan Heqing recommended.

Lu Lin is busy with work and keeps to herself. It has been a long time since she had hot pot.

Sure enough, he picked up a pork meatball and took a bite. The meat was rich in flavor, crispy and grainy, and bursting with fresh and sweet soup.

Lu Lin chewed carefully, "Lettuce?"

Yan Heqing's eyes curled up, "Yes, I added a little bit of chopped lettuce. The dumplings will have a more layered texture and won't be too greasy."

"Are you still working in the hotel?" Lu Lin asked naturally. Although it was a simple hot pot, it still showed Yan Heqing's good cooking skills.

"Not counting hotels, it's just a home-cooked restaurant on the roadside." Yan Heqing picked up the bowl and blanched a piece of lettuce. His smile was as bright as the green lettuce. "I know basic home-cooked dishes. I don't know about high-end dishes and Western food." Got it."
