As soon as Xiaoxi finished speaking, everyone immediately started eating. This wasn't just a taste; it was a scramble to eat.
People even made growling sounds like wild animals.
They all vaguely said it was so delicious. For them, it had been a long time since they had eaten hot pot, and today they were finally able to relax and indulge in a feast.
Especially this hot pot, with a broth prepared by a master chef, made us even more eager to eat it, knowing we wouldn't be able to eat it every day after this meal.
Xiaoxi was amused by everyone, "Eat slowly, everyone. My third brother prepared plenty of ingredients for me, there's definitely enough!"
Some people, unaware that they can't handle spicy food, sit at the table with the hot pot, and the aroma of the spicy broth is so irresistible that they can't help but stick their chopsticks in to scoop out the hot food, only to end up screaming from the spiciness.
Xiaoxi quickly added frozen drinks, beer, and freshly squeezed juice.
"A bowl of fried rice with hot pot is the perfect match."
Xiaoxi enthusiastically praised her second brother's superb cooking skills, and in her excitement, she not only brought out the egg fried rice that her eldest brother had personally cooked, but also brought out some snacks.
Ye Lingfeng, who was at the table opposite them, was still embarrassed because he had acted so childishly and awkwardly earlier, and he hadn't picked up his chopsticks yet.
Jack, who was standing next to Ye Lingfeng, had been eating several rounds of food and was puzzled by Ye Lingfeng's behavior.
"Boss, why aren't you eating? Can't you handle spicy food? There's a mushroom soup hot pot here if you can't handle spicy food."
He wanted to scoop a piece of meat from the mushroom soup pot for Ye Lingfeng, but then suddenly stopped himself. His boss was usually a germaphobe when things were nice.
So he picked up the apple juice in front of him and a plate of appetizers.
"Boss, have a glass of juice first, then have some soft and fluffy little cakes."
At this moment, Ye Lingfeng could no longer hold back. His carefully maintained composure crumbled instantly. He took the apple juice and drank it all in one gulp, but suddenly choked.
It choked him so much that tears streamed down his face.
I don't know if it was from choking or from a sudden surge of emotion that brought tears to my eyes, but they were red.
Then Ye Aotian nudged Xiaoxi with his elbow, making her look at Ye Lingfeng.
Xiao Xi looked over: Hmph, didn't you say you weren't going to eat? Under the influence of her second brother's delicious food, even the toughest man has to bow his head.
The brother and sister then started eating separately.
Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Lingfeng sensed that his biological older brother and younger sister had glanced at him. He quickly and awkwardly looked over, only to find that the two of them were completely ignoring him.
He must have misread it. This time, he picked up a glass of apple juice and sipped it slowly, then picked up a soft, chewy little cake.
The sweet, milky aroma of the cake filled his entire mouth.
Yes, that's the taste. How many midnights, when his stomach was growling with hunger, did he crave this taste?
In my memory, his gentle second brother loved to make delicious desserts, cakes, and cookies.
He was still young then, and his second brother loved to make him apple juice and feed him spoonful by spoonful.
Every time, he would sit on the little stool, swinging his legs back and forth, waiting for his second brother to feed him snacks and apple juice.
Ye Lingfeng stopped his remark and saw everyone scrambling for the hot pot, their faces flushed. If they didn't start eating soon, there wouldn't be any left.
He couldn't resist picking up a piece of tender beef with his chopsticks and putting it into the hot pot. The tender beef was cooked in no time, and it tasted just like his second brother's. He hadn't eaten it in many years, and it was truly delicious to the core.
But it was too spicy, so Jack kindly handed him a bowl of fried rice with eggs.
