Xiao Nan's hobby explains why she brought three other people on the ship. Xu Zhaoyue saw her there but didn't go over to call her. Instead, she went back to her room alone. This time, she didn't bring any work documents with her, only a few books.
Xu Zhaoyue quietly read for a while, enjoying a rare moment of leisure. After a short nap at noon, it was time for the barbecue.
"Miss, which one should you wear this afternoon?" Xiao Nan showed Xu Zhaoyue two dresses. "I'll choose the brown one. The smell of smoke will be strong later. I don't like this dress, I'll throw it away after this." Xu Zhaoyue chose one of them.
"Let's go eat barbecue." After Xu Zhaoyue finished getting ready, she and Xiao Nan came to the barbecue area. They had rented a large space, and the others were already preparing.
"Young Miss, which flavor of drink would you like?" the maid asked, standing in front of the beverage counter.
Xu Zhaoyue glanced at it and said, "Grape juice, please add more ice." Once the drink was brought over, she only needed to sit in the chair and watch them prepare the ingredients.
"Miss, why don't you try my cooking first? The chef will be setting up a stall over there later. If you can't cook it well yourself, you can go and buy some." Yue Lanxing told Xu Zhaoyue about the alternative.
Xu Zhaoyue saw the three chefs burning charcoal over there, and it seemed she didn't have much faith in their skills.
Various vegetables and small seafood items grilled even faster. Yue Lanxing first used two plates of food as an experiment before serving the third batch to Xu Zhaoyue. "Miss, be careful, it's hot. We'll test the temperature of the skewers later." Yue Lanxing still had to check on the stove.
Xu Zhaoyue waited until the food was steaming before starting to eat. After finishing, she commented to Yue Lanxing, "Not bad, not bad. Add some more chili. If you can't wait, go buy some over there first."
What she said next was to the others, because apart from Yue Lanxing, the others who went over and tried to operate it didn't work very well. It was just that the bodyguards didn't care and could eat it directly, but it wouldn't be good if the young girls ate it and hurt their stomachs.
A group of people strolled over. Xu Zhaoyue walked up to Yue Lanxing, whose face was already covered in sweat. "Wipe your sweat. I can't eat too much. Don't rush. I'll teach them a bit later and let them do it."
"Okay, I'll grill what Miss wants to eat first and then rest." Yue Lanxing wiped her sweat with a towel, and her face turned red when she saw Xu Zhaoyue standing there for a while. "Miss, please go over there and grill by the stove."
Before Xu Zhaoyue could say anything, Xiao Nan, who had run back, pulled her back. "Miss, Miss, I just ordered a roasted lamb leg from the chef."
Xu Zhaoyue looked at the crowd gathered there and said, "This line is so long you can't even get a number, yet they're still roasting lamb legs?"
"Oh, it's not them grilling here, it's the main kitchen doing it. They're really too busy here. Luckily, we went there early." Xiao Nan followed back, each carrying something in their hands.
It looks like a lot, but one serving isn't much. Yue Lanxing still needs to teach them how to do it, just to keep the fire small and pay attention to the heat.
"I did it." Xue Huzi picked up the fish he had grilled, and with his chopsticks, he picked up a piece of meat that looked cooked. "Alright, I'll take care of things here, Brother Yue. You can go over there now."
Xue Huzi didn't say where, but everyone knew he was sending Yue Ge to the young lady's place. "Then it's up to you." Yue Lanxing didn't insist. There were too many people around, so she quickly slipped away.
Yue Lanxing brought over the freshly grilled squid and placed the plate on the table in front of Xu Zhaoyue. "What would you like to drink?" Xu Zhaoyue picked up the glass. She had already finished the grape juice she had just drunk, and this glass contained watermelon juice.
"I can do it myself." Yue Lanxing refused the cup offered by the maid, walked over and picked out a cup to wash again, but he didn't drink the beverage, instead he poured water and ice cubes.
Yue Lanxing returned to Xu Zhaoyue's side with the cup. There were chairs and benches around, so he sat down behind them to shield Xu Zhaoyue from the sun. Xu Zhaoyue didn't need to turn around to know that Yue Lanxing was watching her from behind, which made her feel very safe.
The roasted lamb leg arrived at the perfect time, just as it was getting dark and they had almost finished digesting what they had eaten. "Xiao Nan, put your cards down for a moment. The lamb leg is here, let's eat something first," Xu Zhaoyue said, appearing behind Xiao Nan. Her cards looked pretty good.
"Oh, they're here." Xiao Nan quickly called everyone to cut the lamb leg. The first plate was naturally placed in front of Xu Zhaoyue, along with flatbread and dipping sauce.
Just as she was eating, firecrackers started going off behind her. "Wow!" "Ah!" all sorts of sounds came from behind. Xu Zhaoyue quickly put the wrapped meat into her mouth and turned around to look. Fireworks were just blooming in the sky.
"Waaah..." Xu Zhaoyue spoke but didn't utter the correct words, "Miss, are you trying to say why we're setting off fireworks now that it's not even evening yet?" Yue Lanxing had already come to her side.
"Mmm!" Xu Zhaoyue nodded repeatedly. Yue Lanxing explained to her, "Because there are four shows tonight, each lasting two hours. Each show has more episodes than the last. This one should be the one we just saw."
Xu Zhaoyue's cheeks were moving non-stop until she finally swallowed the meat. "That's it? Then I'll eat slowly and watch the next match."
Most people waited for the second round, as the time spent eating and drinking passed quickly, and the number of people was indeed more than before. "Miss, the pattern of this firework is really interesting. How about we order one like this for your birthday next year?" Xiao Nan asked, standing to Xu Zhaoyue's left.
Standing on the right, Yue Lanxing asked, "When is the young lady's birthday?"
"February 3rd, after the New Year." The two of them were talking about Xu Zhaoyue across from them.
Xu Zhaoyue looked around and said, "Okay, let's buy these fireworks. Xiaonan's birthday is in June. What about yours?" She looked at Yue Lanxing and said, "The twelfth of the twelfth lunar month. It snowed heavily that day." Yue Lanxing replied.
