An Moxue's series of actions were so fast and fierce that Li Aidang was stunned.
At the police station, she mechanically answered whatever the police asked.
After leaving the police station, Li Aidang was still being pulled along by An Moxue until they arrived at Xiao Li Zijing's shredded pork shop. Smelling the rich aroma, Li Aidang finally came to his senses and asked, "Moxue, keep my contact information here. What if they ask me questions later and I can't answer them?"
"No, we kept you here so you could go home and tell Uncle Li about this, so we can keep an eye on them and prevent them from running away. Tell Uncle Li what happened today, and he'll know what to do. What, did the aroma bring you back to your senses?" An Moxue smiled at her, waving a freshly made shredded pork with sweet bean sauce in front of Li Aidang.
"Hurry up, after we buy the golden thread pancakes, we can go to the roast duck restaurant and eat. My mouth is watering." With that, he dragged An Moxue out of Xiao Li Zi Jing Sauce Shredded Pork Shop, his dull and wooden expression completely gone.
Upon entering the Golden Silk Pancake Shop, Li Aidang's eyes practically practically disappeared into the kitchen, making An Moxue laugh. "Calm your eyes," she said. "I think after you get married, you could find a job in a restaurant, secretly learn the ropes, and study the cuisine. You could work and eat at the same time, balancing work and life perfectly. Wouldn't that be great?" An Moxue genuinely believed that since Li Aidang loved to eat, he should put some effort into it. She was sure he would achieve great success and build a successful career. Turning a hobby into a career was such a rare and fulfilling way to live.
"Really? You think it's feasible too?"
"Also? Who else said that?" An Moxue asked curiously.
"Jiang Wenhua! She said that loving to eat good food is nothing shameful. As long as you have enough money in your pocket to spend, why care what others say!"
An Moxue finally understood why Li Aidang had agreed to marry Jiang Wenhua so quickly—it was about recognition. Jiang Wenhua recognized her for her love of food, rather than rejecting or blaming her.
"Comrades, here are your golden thread pancakes." The waiter's words interrupted the two. Li Aidang took the pancakes and urged An Moxue, "Moxue, hurry up, let's go to Quanfu Roast Duck!"
An Moxue felt that being in front of Li Aidang was truly stress-relieving. This carefree man, who only cared about eating, was truly worry-free.
At Quanfu Roast Duck Restaurant, Li Aidang ate while talking to An Moxue, "Moxue, so many certificates of merit, you're really amazing! Yesterday too, you don't know, my dad came back and said you single-handedly took down an entire regiment, that's incredible. This morning too, everyone in our compound was talking about you! It seems your dad was right to have you practice martial arts since you were little, otherwise how could you be so good! Even when my dad made me practice since I was little, I couldn't stick to it. I remember you used to practice for several hours every day when you were little, it was so hard."
Li Aidang reminisced about his childhood, and An Moxue also recalled that she did have memories of practicing martial arts from childhood to adulthood. However, what she practiced was just ordinary military boxing and a set of An family kung fu, without any internal energy cultivation methods. It could only be considered external kung fu, which was incomparable to the Guiyi Fist that An Moxue was practicing now. They were worlds apart. But fortunately, she had practiced martial arts since childhood, so the people in the compound who knew her naturally thought that it was only natural that she was so good. After all, her father was no ordinary person.
An Moxue smiled in response. Li Aidang, enjoying his meal, became more talkative, saying, "Moxue, tell me, how could I be so stupid? Why didn't I think of going to the same place as you when we went to the countryside? Someone as stupid as me is only suited to thinking about food, not using my brain."
Okay, you're something else, you can even bring up food in everything!
"Did you have a choice back then?" An Moxue asked curiously.
“My dad notified me after he registered,” Li Aidang said.
An Moxue thought to herself, "Luckily, none of you came to my side, otherwise I don't know if I would have brought danger to you!"
"This roast duck is so delicious, but it's not something ordinary people like us can afford to eat every day. One meal costs half a month's salary for an average worker," Li Aidang complained as he ate.
An Moxue asked with a smile, "Then, my dear sister Ai Dang, you've eaten almost a month's salary in one day. What are your thoughts on that?"
"Yes! It's expensive for a reason, and it's delicious!" Li Aidang answered with unusual seriousness.
Okay, I admire you, but you can't live without food.
After taking a few bites, Li Aidang looked at An Moxue with teary eyes, making An Moxue feel uneasy, but she didn't know what to do.
She looked at Li Aidang and silently asked, "What's wrong?"
"Mo Xue, you're leaving tomorrow. When will you come back and treat me to something delicious again?"
This foodie, it turns out, wasn't reluctant to part with me, but rather reluctant that no one would buy her delicious food after I left. An Moxue was so angry that she wanted to clear away all the food on the table and never let her eat anymore.
I'll make you cry your heart out!
"Have some self-respect, will you? Don't you have your Jiang Wenhua? Go find him!" An Moxue replied irritably.
"That won't do."
"Why not!"
“Eating Jiang Wenhua’s food is eating mine, eating yours is still eating yours. I feel bad if I eat his food, but I’m just being generous to you.” Li Aidang muttered softly, especially afraid that An Moxue would hear him, so he lowered his head and covered his mouth.
But An Moxue still overheard it.
Li Aidang, you're a real scoundrel!
An Moxue picked up a duck head for her and said, "Eat it quickly!" She was thinking, "You'd better eat it quickly! Stop talking, or I'll get so angry. No wonder we've been friends since childhood, just shut up!"
Li Aidang remained silent for no more than five minutes before asking An Moxue again, "Moxue, how did you know about the fabric of those clothes and the perfume?"
Can An Moxue say that I was in this industry in my past life, and that you know something about An Moxue in this life?
Of course not.
So how should we answer that?
"You forgot? My mom would take me to Friendship Store from time to time. Over time, I naturally learned some things. What's so strange about that? Unlike you, who are only interested in food."
"Oh! It seems so."
She finished the golden thread pancake in her mouth and said, "Wait a minute! They don't even have that in China. How did you know?"
“I naturally have my own channels, do you want to know them?” An Moxue asked Li Aidang with a smile.
"No, no. The more you know, the more you worry. I only have one heart, I can't handle it all, so let's not talk about it."
Is Li Aidang implying that he is naive and that he is cunning?
The snow vapors in Anmo were condensed.
Li Aidang felt that speaking again would be dangerous, so he stopped speaking.
After finishing their meal, An Moxue packed up a few more roast ducks. Li Aidang asked, "Moxue, do you want me to go to the hospital with you?"
"No need, I have some other things to take care of this afternoon. Go have fun by yourself!"
What time are you going tomorrow?
"The train departs at 9:30 AM."
"Then I'll see you off. I'm leaving now." An Moxue watched Li Aidang leave with the bed sheet she had been longing for, then turned and walked into the street as well.
