“Who’s going to come find us?”
Su Keke and Grandma Qiao looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just arrived at the Lanshan villa area and didn't know any of the neighbors.
"I'll go out and take a look!"
Su Keke ran to the yard and opened the door with a puzzled look on her face. "Du...Brother Du! Why are you here?"
Su Keke called "Brother Du" with some stammering, wondering why this guy came to her place.
Du Yichen, however, was smiling from ear to ear. He had received a call from the security captain at home and learned that Su Keke and the others had moved in today.
Look, Zhang Ma had prepared meals for his own family, but Du Yichen didn't want to eat. He even went to the underground wine cellar to pick up a box of top-quality red wine, intending to visit Villa No. 5.
"I heard you guys moved in today, so I came to visit. We're neighbors from now on, so we should visit each other more often."
Du Yichen spoke very naturally. Su Keke didn't even ask him to come in, but he just walked into the villa with a glass of red wine in his hand and a smile on his face.
He was very familiar with this place and walked in with ease.
Su Keke could only take a few quick steps to come in front of Du Yichen and reluctantly took him to the restaurant.
"Meow... Meow meow..." Tangyuan, who was about to start eating, saw a stranger suddenly walk in, and immediately made a gesture as if he was going to catch him.
"How come you have time to come here today, Mr. Xiao Du?"
Grandma Qiao quickly stood up and greeted them with a smile. After all, the Lanshan Villa District was still the territory of their Du family, so it was better not to offend them unless necessary.
"Granny Qiao, you don't have to be polite. Just call me Xiao Du."
Du Yichen put the red wine in his hand aside, pulled out a chair and sat opposite Grandma Qiao.
Su Keke stood by and watched in amazement. Was Du Yicheng so rude? Did he still think this was his own home?
"Um...Xiao Du, have you had lunch?" Grandma Qiao asked awkwardly but politely.
“I haven’t eaten yet!”
Du Yichen looked at the table of food in front of him and spoke without thinking.
His grandfather recently said that supplies are in short supply now and they can no longer be as extravagant as before, so apart from big family gatherings, their usual meals are more homely.
Su Keke has king crabs and roasted chicken, both of which look good. Especially the roasted chicken, which most people can't make at home.
"Then if you don't mind, let's eat together!" Grandma Qiao tried.
"No, no!"
Du Yichen didn't realize that the other person was just being polite to him. He just came here to have a free meal today. It was a rare occasion that someone he was interested in moved into the villa complex, so he had to rush over to have a free meal to improve their relationship.
Su Keke glanced at the outgoing Du Yichen, but there was nothing she could do about him. She could only turn around and go to the kitchen to get a set of bowls and chopsticks.
By the time Su Keke sat down and picked up the chopsticks, the mood for a sumptuous meal had long since disappeared.
There was suddenly a stranger at the table, and she felt awkward no matter how she ate.
Grandma Qiao picked up the bottle of red wine, poured a glass for Du Yicheng and said slowly, "Xiao Du, come here! I'll toast you a glass! Please take care of me in the future!"
Du Yicheng quickly raised his glass and said with a smile, "Grandma Qiao, you are too polite! Keke and I are friends, I should toast you first."
"Coco! You come too. I wish you and Grandma Qiao a happy moving!"
Du Yichen held up his wine glass and smiled brightly, looking at Su Keke beside him as if she were a friend he had known for a long time.
"Uh..." Su Keke was a little speechless.
When did she and Du Yichen become friends?
But everyone was waiting for her with their glasses raised, and Su Keke didn't want to offend Du Yichen, so she had to bite the bullet and raise her glass with them.
"Cheers, everyone!" The three of them clinked their glasses together. Du Yichen drank it all in one gulp, and told Su Keke and Grandma Qiao to do as they pleased.
Su Keke couldn't drink much, so she only took two sips. Grandma Qiao, on the other hand, could drink quite a bit, so she drank half a cup straight away.
After two sips of red wine, Su Keke seemed to be less reserved. She took a small bowl and first served Grandma Qiao a bowl of fried rice cake with crab meat, and then served herself another bowl.
As for Du Yicheng, if you want to eat, just serve yourself.
Su Keke ignored him and just focused on eating the king crab, just like eating rice balls, happily eating like a cat.
Tangyuan changed to a new environment, but his eating habits were not affected at all. However, when Du Yichen entered the restaurant just now, he grinned and shouted at him a few times.
Seeing that Su Keke and Grandma Qiao didn't let this person go out, Tangyuan went to eat without worry. There were crabs and roast chicken today, and Tangyuan had already drooled at the smell.
"Xiao Du, just help yourself to what you want to eat! Don't be polite with us!" Grandma Qiao reminded with a smile.
"Okay, Grandma Qiao! Don't worry about me!"
Du Yichen also followed Su Keke's example, served himself a bowl of fried rice cake with king crab, and then started eating it happily.
He didn't expect that the rice cake was so delicious. Du Yichen was a little tired of eating seafood like king crabs so often.
Du Yichen remembered that he had eaten rice cake once at home when he was a child, and the taste was very ordinary. He didn't expect to eat such delicious rice cake here at Su Keke today.
"Grandma Qiao, did you make all these dishes? They are so delicious. I'll have to ask Aunt Zhang to come over and learn from you some other day."
Du Yichen quickly finished the rice cake in his bowl, leaving two pieces of king crab untouched.
Su Keke stared at the king crab in Du Yichen's bowl and complained in her heart, "Your eldest master doesn't eat king crabs, so don't put some in your bowl. It's just a waste."
"Coco! This big chicken leg is for you!"
Seeing Su Keke's look as if she wanted to kill Du Yichen with a knife, Grandma Qiao quickly put on disposable gloves and broke off a big chicken leg for her.
"This chicken leg looks delicious!" Du Yichen said casually.
Grandma Qiao had no choice but to give the remaining chicken leg to Du Yichen.
Su Keke immediately glanced over, meaning "How dare you eat Grandma Qiao's roasted chicken legs?"
Unexpectedly, Du Yichen had no sense of restraint at all. He grabbed the chicken leg and took a bite. "Hmm! This roasted chicken is exactly the same as the one I ate in the United States last time."
“The skin is crispy and the chicken is tender. It’s impossible for ordinary people to make this taste without ten years of experience.”
"Grandma Qiao, your roast chicken is so authentic! I didn't expect you to have such a skill!"
Du Yichen finished the roasted chicken leg in no time and was very good at praising people. His praise made Grandma Qiao feel a little embarrassed.
In fact, this roast chicken was originally brought back by Su Keke from the United States, but no one would believe it if she told him.
Not to mention that we are in the apocalypse now, even in the past, it was impossible to bring back food that still tasted as fragrant and fresh from the oven.
"Grandma Qiao, you eat my chicken leg. I want to eat grilled chicken wings today!"
Su Keke put her roasted chicken leg into Grandma Qiao's bowl and said.
"You kid, there's no conflict between eating roasted chicken legs and roasted chicken wings. Why did you give it to me? There are still many parts of this roasted chicken that I can eat!"
Grandma Qiao picked up the chicken leg and stuffed it into Su Keke's mouth, "Hmm!" Su Keke subconsciously took a bite. It smelled so good!
