Chapter 143143 Pei Maomao: The Gods Return!
You know what, even though Ji Dong seems to be doing things in a clumsy way, he is really good at cooking. Flipping the pan, stir-frying, he can do it easily. All you can hear is the sizzling sound of the oil pan as he puts the meatballs he just made into the pan one by one. When they are fried in the hot oil, the aroma of the meatballs overflows.
Pei Qi stood at the door and kept taking a deep breath. Which cat could resist the temptation of delicious food?
His admiration for Ji Dong has reached its peak, "Dong Dong, you are my God!"
Hearing the nickname "Dongdong," Ji Dong nearly dropped his plate. The disgust in his eyes reached its peak. He pushed Pei Qi with disdain, "Alright, alright, stop disgusting me here. I'm getting goosebumps. Just get out of here and come back when we're ready for dinner!"
Pei Qi pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly, "Isn't this just me trying to help you?"
Hearing this, Ji Dong's expression suddenly became complicated. "Are you here to help me, or are you here to blow up the kitchen?"
Lu Xuan answered silently in his heart: Blow up the kitchen.
Pei Maomao: “…”
People’s hearts are no longer the same!
He just said you are my best brother, and then he questioned the relationship between them. Is he the kind of person who would blow up the kitchen?
Pei Maomao, who was unwilling to give up, winked at Ji Dong.
Ji Dong, we are the best in the world!
Ji Dong, who witnessed all this: "..."
Just forget it.
With a snap, Ji Dong quickly closed the kitchen door, rejecting his gaze and instructing, "Pei Qi, call Yu Hao and ask him where he is. If he doesn't know the way, go out and pick him up."
"Know."
Pei Maomao lay on the sofa like a boneless person, his head resting blatantly on Lu Xuan's thigh. He used his communicator to call Yu Hao several times, but the other end was always busy. Bored, Pei Maomao raised his head from Lu Xuan's lap, leaned close to Lu Xuan's ear, and whispered, "Ah Xuan, what are you looking at?"
Lu Xuan waved the registration poster in his hand. "Registration information for the National Mecha Cup. Are you interested?"
When Pei Maomao heard about the mecha competition, he immediately curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "No, I have no interest in mechas at all."
Operating that thing is exhausting, he doesn't like it at all!
Lu Xuan casually read out the prize money on the poster, "The first place in the national competition will receive a prize of 15 million."
Pei Maomao, who had just turned away, came back immediately, his eyes sparkling. "How much? How much do you think the first prize is?"
"Fifteen million."
Lu Xuan curled the corners of his lips, looking regretful, "Tsk, what a pity, you are not interested in this competition anymore."
Pei Maomao: “!!!!!”
He immediately jumped up and said confidently, "Who said I have no interest in mechas? I love driving mechas the most!"
He nudged Lu Xuan with his elbow and said excitedly, "Tell me about the prize money. Oh no, tell me about the rules."
Seeing Pei Qi's money-grubbing look, Lu Xuan curled his lips slightly, "The first place winner of the national competition will receive a prize of 15 million, the second place winner will receive a prize of 10 million, and the third place winner will receive a prize of 5 million."
As soon as this offer came out, Pei Maomao immediately felt that the 500,000 yuan bonus he had just received was not that great. The prize money for the third place in the national competition was ten times what he got in the campus competition!
At that moment, he seemed to see countless small coins throwing towards him!
It can’t be spent all, it can never be spent all!
Pei Qi slapped the back of Lu Xuan's hand heavily. "Xuan, you have to help me sign up. I want to participate in this national competition. I love mechas the most. I will definitely be able to perform well in this competition!"
Lu Xuan's lips curled slightly, and he smiled and said, "I haven't finished what I said yet. The national competition is divided into individual competition and team competition. The prize money for individual competition and team competition is the same. To participate in the team competition, five people need to fill out the registration form together."
Pei Qi said disapprovingly, "You want a team competition?"
Lu Xuan nodded, "Well, I plan to sign up for this team competition."
Pei Qi snatched the poster from his hand. "But the prize money for the individual competition is higher! The prize money for first place in the team competition is divided among five people. On average, each person will only get three million. If you try hard in the team competition, isn't that counterproductive?"
Lu Xuan pinched his cheek with his index finger. "Is there a possibility that I won the individual competition last year, so I was banned from participating in the individual competition at the national competition. After all, we have to give others a chance to survive."
"Huh?"
"Eh hey hey?"
"Eh eh eh eh eh?"
Pei Maomao looked at him hesitantly and said hesitantly: "Then won't I have less at the beginning?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said seriously, "Don't you always feel that you took too much? I persuaded you for a long time before you reluctantly accepted it."
Pei Maomao: “…”
There was once an opportunity to get rich right in front of him, but he didn't cherish it. If he were given another chance, he would definitely hug the little money and say that he would love it for ten thousand years!
Lu Xuan raised his chin and asked, "Would you like to play in the team competition with me?"
Pei Maomao snorted lightly and said dissatisfiedly, "I don't want to play in the team competition with you. However, for the sake of money, I can reluctantly accept your request. However, the team competition requires five people to sign up together. Even if I add me, there are not enough people."
Lu Xuan didn't respond to his question, but instead asked, "Answer me first, are you willing to play in the team competition with me?"
Pei Maomao turned her head away and whispered, "I'm only agreeing to do this reluctantly. I'm doing this for the money, not for your sake."
Lu Xuan's lips curled slightly, and he nodded seriously, "Okay, okay, I understand. Leave the rest to me. If there are not enough people for the team competition, let me fill in the gaps."
"Um."
The two were chatting casually about the national competition when the doorbell rang unexpectedly. Pei Qi's eyes lit up, "It must be Yu Hao coming!"
As he said that, he immediately ran over and opened the door with a "swish".
Not only did Yu Hao come, but he also brought a little tail with him.
"Hi, Brother Pei!" Zhuo Jia greeted him with a red face.
Pei Qi asked in surprise, "Zhuo Jia is here too? Come in quickly!"
Zhuo Jia pursed his lips in frustration. "I'm sorry, Brother Pei. I didn't have time to cheer you on during your competition. My grandma was sick at the time, and I was busy going home to take care of her. My grandpa is such a rotten old man. He can hardly take care of himself, let alone grandma."
Hearing this, Pei Qi was startled and hurriedly asked, "Is Grandma Tian okay? Oh, if you didn't come to cheer me up, then so be it. It's not a big deal. Grandma Tian's health is more important. Grandma Tian has always taken good care of us over the years and often sends us local specialties. If you're cheering me up instead of caring about her health, I'll be really angry."
Zhuo Jia scratched his head embarrassedly. "She fell while washing vegetables. Grandma is old, and the fall scared us all. I rushed back to take care of her. However, after a period of rest, her condition has improved a lot. She can even walk out of the house now. I went back to school to take make-up exams. I missed several subjects this year."
Pei Qi patted Zhuo Jia's shoulder in a comforting manner. "It's okay. I believe in you. You will definitely pass every exam! Okay, everyone, stop talking at the door and go inside and sit down."
As soon as Yu Hao entered the house, he laughed at Ji Dong who was busy in the kitchen. "Hey, the sun is rising from the west? Is it your turn to cook?"
Ji Dong held the spatula in his hand and shouted fiercely, "Do you really want Pei Qi to cook for you personally? Don't you know what his cooking skills are?"
Yu Hao: “…”
When talking about Pei Qi's cooking skills, we have to mention Yu Hao's sad past.
At that time, Yu Hao caught a cold and fell ill.
Pei Qi was so anxious that he kept pacing around his bed.
"Yu Hao, are you feeling better? Do you want some more cold medicine?"
Yu Hao waved his hand and said weakly, "No, I'm just a little hungry."
Hearing Yu Hao's weak voice, Pei Qi was almost anxious. He said without hesitation, "Wait, I'll make you a bowl of noodles!"
Pei Qi immediately got to work, rolled up his sleeves and rushed into the kitchen.
Ji Donggang was about to praise Pei Qi for his kind heart until he saw the noodle soup that Pei Qi brought. He fell silent. A burnt egg floated on the top of the soup, with tiny pieces of eggshell floating on the corners of the black egg. The vegetables were cooked until they were shriveled and yellow, and the noodles were so soft that they were difficult to pick up with chopsticks.
Ji Dong: “…”
Hiss, it’s hard to comment!
Yu Hao stared at the bowl of dark cuisine in silence for a long time. He picked up the spoon and tremblingly scooped a spoonful of soup for himself, his determined eyes like a warrior who was about to die heroically.
The wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold; the hero will never return once he leaves.
He had just drunk half a spoonful of soup when his face twisted. He grabbed Pei Qi's wrist tightly and asked, "Pei Qi, how much salt did you put in this bowl of noodles?"
"Half a bag."
"How many?"
Pei Qi blinked in confusion, "Half a bag!"
Yu Hao: “…”
Very good, his heart finally settled down.
Ji Dong: “…”
No, Pei Qi, do you want to marinate him?
#Beware of your funny friends. When there is no danger, they are the biggest danger! #
Pei Qi's spoonful of soup almost made Yu Hao go to see his grandmother. Ever since that time, he and Ji Dong tried every means to stop Pei Qi from cooking again. "Stop cooking! Others cook for money, but you cook for your life!"
Ji Dong's response silenced Yu Hao.
Yu Hao put away his mocking expression and gave him a thumbs-up. "Comrade, thank you for your hard work!"
Ji Dong snorted coldly, "I'm glad you know!"
Apart from anything else, Ji Dong’s cooking is really delicious!
The cola chicken wings he had just cooked were eaten up by everyone as soon as they were served. Not to mention the stir-fried clams, which were also slurped up by these foodies. In the end, seeing that there was not enough to eat, he had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and go back to the kitchen to cook two more dishes for these foodies.
The way they wolf down their food looks like they have never had enough to eat in their previous life!
Pei Maomao patted his round belly contentedly and said happily, "Come on, let's play mahjong! Today I'm going to kill you all!"
While Ji Dong was washing the dishes, he threatened him, "We haven't even started fighting yet, and you're already blowing your own trumpet! Stop lying there, kid. Come and wash the dishes for me!"
Pei Maomao, who didn't want to wash the dishes: "..."
hiss!
He nudged Lu Xuan beside him and ordered without hesitation, "What are you still standing there for? Go wash the dishes!"
Yu Hao: “…”
Hiss, what a great reversal of Tiangang!
Pei Qi, you do have some awareness of being a dependent!
Hearing this, Lu Xuan strode over and said, "No need to wash it, just throw it in the dishwasher."
As he spoke, he walked over and put the greasy pots and pans into the dishwasher.
With his hands freed, Ji Dong rushed back into the battle immediately.
"Okay, let's start mahjong! Who's on the table?"
Pei Qi looked around and said, "How about this? Let Caesar come to the table, and I'll be in charge of coaching Zhuo Jia off the court. Whoever loses will have a white note stuck on their face. Hehehe, when we're done, we'll take a group photo and post it on WeChat Moments."
Ji Dong couldn't help but gasp, "Damn, you're really playing big!"
Pei Qi folded his arms and said confidently, "Do you dare to play? If you don't dare to play, it's not too late to regret it now!"
"Come if you want, who's afraid of who?"
Everyone takes their positions, the battle is about to begin!
