"The dishes are all here. Take your time to eat. Call me if you need anything." The proprietress put down the dishes that Shan Yilin ordered, looked at him and Li Xia, and said, "I'll be busy now."
"Thank you, Auntie."
When Li Xia saw the proprietress's warm smile, she responded with a sweet smile.
It took them some time to drive from the villa to the clothing store, pick out clothes, etc.
This also resulted in them arriving at the diner at exactly the right time.
It was supposed to be breakfast time.
But if I just have a simple meal and then go to the supermarket to buy ingredients and rush back to cook, lunch time will be very late.
Shan Yilin talked to Li Xia about it.
They simply had breakfast and lunch here.
This was Li Xia’s first time here, and she didn’t know what was delicious and what was not.
The matter of ordering food was entirely given to Shan Yilin.
He ordered three dishes and a soup for two people.
Considering Li Xia, Shan Yilin specially ordered dishes suitable for children and asked the proprietress not to make them spicy.
"Try it."
After the proprietress left, Shan Yilin raised his chin, opened his eyelids and glanced at Li Xia.
Li Xia nodded and said, "Well, I'll try it."
She picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork with fat and lean texture from the plate.
This dish looks delicious and tasty, which makes people very hungry.
"It's delicious." Li Xia said with shining eyes.
The chef has a good grasp of the heat for this dish.
The raw material is pork belly with a mixture of fat and lean meat, and the secret cooking method makes it fat but not greasy and melts in the mouth.
The original owner had lived a wealthy life since childhood and was very picky about food.
Li Xia could taste the originality of this dish.
It seems that the saying that experts are found among the common people is still very true.
Shan Yilin raised his hand and gently moved the plate of braised pork towards Li Xia, "If it tastes good, eat more."
"Uncle, don't you want to eat?" Li Xia blinked and asked.
He kept watching her eat without even picking up his chopsticks.
Shan Yilin said, "Just eat, don't worry about me."
"oh."
Li Xia lowered her head, and the chopsticks in her hand unconsciously poked the rice in the bowl.
Meeting such a stubborn and unyielding male protagonist, there is simply no hope at all on his mission path.
She is a little depressed.
Shan Yilin listened to Li Xia's muffled voice and frowned.
"I'll eat too. You should eat quickly. It's cold and the food will get cold easily."
He said somewhat awkwardly.
After the meal, Shan Yilin took Li Xia away from the restaurant.
They returned along the same route they had come.
On the way back, Shan Yilin stopped at the door of a supermarket.
"I'll go in and buy some ingredients, and you go in and choose your own toiletries."
Shan Yilin turned his head to look at Li Xia in the back seat and spoke to her.
According to local laws and regulations, underage children are not allowed to sit in the front passenger seat.
So, Shan Yilin arranged for Li Xia to sit in the back seat.
However, this made him feel like Li Xia's full-time driver.
"Okay." Li Xia nodded.
When she was in China, she had limited time to prepare, and the things she packed were not comprehensive.
Some of the daily necessities were not even brought with them.
This is a good opportunity to take advantage of to complete all the things that need to be completed.
"Uncle, you don't have to follow me. Go buy what you want. I'll wait for you at the checkout counter after I've made my selection."
After the two entered the supermarket, Shan Yilin followed Li Xia.
Li Xia felt a little uncomfortable. She raised her hand and pointed at the cashier counter in front of her, then turned and spoke to Shan Yilin.
Shan Yilin heard her words and said, "Okay, wait for me there after you buy it. Don't say anything. If you get lost here, I won't look for you."
He said that on purpose.
"I understand." Li Xia said, biting her lip.
Even though he doesn't speak, no one would think he is dumb.
Li Xia really didn't understand.
Why does the male protagonist always say hurtful things to her?
I didn't provoke him.
At most, I had secretly glanced at him a few times when we were at the manor before.
Could it be that he was holding a grudge against me because of this?
How stingy.
"A-choo~"
When Li Xia was muttering about Shan Yilin in his heart, he sneezed for no reason.
"Uncle, is it because you are too harsh with your words? You have offended people, so they are cursing you in their hearts?" Li Xia blinked innocently and said with a smile.
Shan Yilin glanced at Li Xia and ignored her.
"Just remember what I said. Don't be curious about other things, and don't meddle in other people's business."
After saying this, he turned around and went to another area.
Li Xia flared her nostrils and wrinkled her nose at Shan Yilin's back.
Half an hour later, the trip to the supermarket was over.
Shan Yilin drove back to his villa.
The two of them unloaded the things in the car together.
After doing all this, Li Xia collapsed on the sofa, gasping with her mouth open, "Phew~ I'm so tired."
"By the way, little uncle, what time is it in China now? Can I call Aunt Zhou?"
When she thought of this, she immediately regained her strength and sat up from the sofa.
"There is a time difference between China and other countries. At this time, it should be early morning in Beijing. Let's call after dinner." Shan Yilin took out his mobile phone and looked at the time on the screen.
"Yeah, okay."
Li Xia heard this and nodded.
"I have a paper to write. I'll go to the study now. You can watch TV in the living room. If you want to take a nap, you can go upstairs and take a nap."
