It was the first time that Lin Dan met such an aggressive man, and she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable. She picked up the kitchen knife and tested the blade, then changed the subject: "I'll debone the chicken, you help me wash the other vegetables."
"I've washed the vegetables, but I don't know whether I should cut them into strips or dices, so I left them alone." An Lang whispered, "In fact, chicken is more delicious when it's cooked with bones."
Lin Dan shook her head and said, "Zhilan doesn't like to eat meat with bones. If I don't remove the bones, she will eat less. She is very picky. I will boil the chicken bones into soup and then put them back into the pot to stew. The taste will not be affected."
"So you cook whatever Bai Zhilan likes to eat every day, what about you? What dishes do you like to eat? When I watched the video, I found that you eat very little at every meal and have no particular preference. I give you rewards, wanting you to eat more, but you always just say thank you and never do what I say." An Lang turned around and stared at Lin Dan.
If An Lang hadn't mentioned it, Lin Dan would have never thought about this issue. Yeah, what do you like? Every moment of her life seemed to be gained from others. She took on other people’s identities, shouldered other people’s burdens, and followed in their footsteps, never once considering her own needs.
What do you want, what do you like, and where will you go in the future? Without memory, can we no longer have a self? Lin Dan held his forehead and was speechless for a long time.
The audience sighed: [Oh my god, do you still remember? Every time Mr. An logs into Xiao Guoguo’s live broadcast room, he always says this: If Ms. Lin can eat one more bowl of rice, I will reward her with 999 sets of nuclear submarines. I always thought he was teasing people and showing off his wealth in disguise, but I didn't expect that his starting point was just to coax Bai Ma to eat more! Mr. An, you are the originator of the domineering CEO, and the key is that you are so warm! 】
[I'm drunk, drunk. If someone gave me tens of thousands of dollars to have a meal, I would be willing to eat like a pig! 】
[Mr. An is 100% serious about this. He cares a lot about Bai Ma. 】
The sweetness of this CP is no less than that of An Zishi and Bai Zhilan, so the audience naturally likes it and gives thumbs up and rewards.
Lin Dan finally came back to his senses and shook his head, "I don't have any favorite dishes, nor do I have any favorite things to do."
"Then start looking from now on." An Lang raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch her confused eyes, but was afraid of disturbing her, so he could only put it down slowly. He picked up a boning knife and said softly, "I'll remove the bones, you go cut the vegetables."
"Can you?" Lin Dan asked with doubt on his face.
An Lang picked up the knife and began to slowly remove the chicken bones. Although his movements were not very skillful, he did not make any mistakes. "I can do it," he chuckled.
"Have you learned it?" Lin Dan couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
The audience gave tips one after another, saying that Mr. An’s talent show was very successful.
"I learned it from your video." An Lang looked at Lin Dan deeply.
Lin Dan was very surprised. "Aren't you busy at work? You still have time to learn how to cook?"
"If I get married, I can't just sit there and do nothing and leave all the housework to my wife, right? For a family to last a long time and be happy, the most important thing is mutual understanding and sharing. It can't always be one person paying and one person enjoying. I can make money, but that's not a reason for me to ignore my wife."
"You can hire a babysitter."
"I don't like having an outsider at home. I can hire a part-time worker, but forget about a live-in nanny."
"I must be very happy to marry you."
"So do you want to give it a try?" An Lang asked unexpectedly.
Lin Dan suddenly became speechless, his mouth opened and closed slightly, and he was unable to speak for a long time.
An Lang stared at her red ears and smiled softly, "Don't be stressed, it's okay if we take it slow."
Who agrees to take it slow with you? Lin Dan wanted to refute, but when she looked into the man's gentle eyes, she didn't know how to start.
An Lang finally stroked her confused face and said carefully: "Let's go find the future together, okay? You don't know what you like or what you want to do, so let's find it slowly. We are still young and can try as much as we want."
Lin Dan couldn't nod, nor did he not nod. He could only pick up a few green onions and chop them with a kitchen knife until they made a clunking sound.
An Lang looked at her intently for a while, then chuckled as he disassembled the chicken bones. The two of them didn't speak anymore and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
But the atmosphere in the live broadcast room was not awkward at all. One viewer wrote in disbelief: [Tell me everything I see is not real! Why did Mr. An propose to Bai Zhilan’s mother when they just met for the first time? He can't be serious, can he? 】
[Looks very serious!] 】
【fart! What sweet words don’t rich guys say when picking up girls? Once Bai Zhilan's mother takes the bait, the plot becomes exciting. A stupid woman who is toyed with and abandoned by a wealthy family is about to be born! 】
[Wealthy families generally use this routine. After playing with others, just get out of it. Don't be too casual. 】
[Will Bai Ma be tempted?] I don’t think it’s credible to propose right after meeting each other! 】
[Who can resist someone like An Lang? I bet they will be together, but it will never work out! 】
[I also think there will be no result. They are people from two different worlds. 】
Some people support CP, while others pour cold water on them, but generally speaking, those who pour cold water on them and laugh at them far outnumber CP fans. Fairy tales only exist in books, and reality is always cruel. To be honest, no matter how outstanding Lin Dan is, it is difficult to make up for the gap in status between her and An Lang.
The two of them worked in silence for a while, as if to ease the awkwardness, An Lang whispered: "What are you going to cook?"
"You ordered the chestnut stewed chicken, and Chongying ordered the fried fish and shrimp. I'm still considering the remaining dishes." Lin Dan breathed a sigh of relief. When he wasn't talking, An Lang's presence became even stronger. His strong arms were always swaying in front of her eyes, making it impossible for her to ignore them even if she wanted to.
If talking can distract her attention, she is willing to become a chatterbox, so she slowly said: "It is said that fresh food is good in spring and summer, and pickled food is good in autumn and winter, but this is not true. Regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, nature will give us fresh ingredients, such as Chinese toon in spring, amaranth in summer, mushrooms in autumn, and bamboo shoots in winter, which are all first-class fresh food. However, eating only fresh vegetables will lack some flavor. If you add a few pickled vegetables, you can taste the refreshing and mellow autumn. So I am going to make three more dishes, one is Jade Ball Soup made entirely of fresh food, one is Steamed Bacon with Black Bean Sauce made entirely of pickled vegetables, and one is Fried Snail Meat with Pickled Radish Dices, which is half fresh food and half pickled vegetables."
"The Jade Ball Soup is made with quail eggs, bamboo shoots, bamboo fungus, and green leaves. The soup is clear as water, white with green, hence the name Jade Ball. Bamboo fungus is rich in guanylic acid, which can combine with the amino acids in the bamboo shoots to form a unique umami flavor that is many times richer than MSG. Although the ingredients are simple and the soup is not thick, the taste is amazing. There is a saying in the chef world: Salt is the first of flavor, and freshness is the soul of flavor. Without salt and freshness, it is like water, but with salt and freshness, it is like a god. This means that as long as the ingredients are fresh enough, even if only a little salt is added, a unique delicacy can be made."
As Lin Dan spoke, she put quail eggs, bamboo shoots and bamboo fungus into the clear soup and cooked them. Her voice was soft and melodious, and her movements were elegant and charming.
An Lang looked at her profile with extremely focused eyes.
The noisy live broadcast room immediately became quiet. Whenever it was time to cook, no matter how many black fans and trolls there were, they were reluctant to post those filthy comments to tarnish the dishes that Lin Dan had carefully prepared.
A fan lamented: [It’s time for the food moment that I enjoy the most! Bai Ma is the most charming when she cooks! 】
[Today is a great day, Bai Ma will explain while she cooks! So happy! 】
【Delicious food is always invincible!】 There is no dispute that Bai Ma can’t resolve with one meal. If that doesn’t work, then two meals will do! 】
Lin Dan had no idea how popular his cooking skills were. Quail eggs are hard to flavor, so they need to be cooked for a while longer. So while the soup was boiling, she cut the bacon into slices and continued, "Chefs have their own unique seasoning methods. I don't have any tricks for seasoning. The first is addition, the second is subtraction, and the third is mixing. Subtraction means removing all the seasonings and restoring the original flavor of the dish."
"For example, this Jade Ball Soup?" An Lang pointed at the casserole that was bubbling with bubbles.
"That's right, now I'm going to add some flavor. Fermented black beans and bacon are both pickled ingredients, both have unique aromas and strong flavors. When the two are combined, their flavors will not conflict with each other, but will complement and blend with each other to form a brand new flavor. The sauce aroma of fermented black beans is heavily wrapped in oil and blended into the salty aroma of bacon, and the taste is fragrant and fragrant, layer by layer. When smoking bacon, I don't use ordinary firewood, but fruit wood, bay leaves, grapefruit peels, sesame stalks and other fuels with unique aromas. They are combined with the spices of pickled bacon, plus the taste of fermented black beans. When you put a little bit of it in your mouth, all kinds of flavors burst out, but they don't cancel each other out at all. Instead, the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes. This is the superposition and flavor enhancement method in seasoning."
An Lang was fascinated by what he heard. When he saw Lin Dan cut the bacon into thin slices, sprinkle it with fermented black beans and put it into the steamer, he couldn't help swallowing.
The audience in the live broadcast room had already taken out tissues and started wiping their mouths to avoid getting the keyboard wet. The screen was full of rewards and blooming fireworks, and the scene was spectacular. However, when the camera moved away from the steamer to shoot Lin Dan's hands, all the rewards and comments disappeared. Everyone was afraid of missing the next delicacy.
Lin Dan had no idea what kind of impact he had on others, and continued, "I used a mixed seasoning method for the following dish. The pickled radish has been pickled for a season, and it tastes sweet and sour, crisp and delicious. I peeled the snail meat this morning, and it was still very fresh. I boiled it in boiling water and then put it in cold water for later use. The outer layer of the meat is soft and glutinous, while the inner core is chewy and elastic, with a very unique taste. Stir-fry the pickled radish cubes and fresh snail meat in hot oil, and sprinkle some chopped green onions. The half-pickled, half-fresh, half-sweet, half-salty, half-soft, and half-crisp taste will definitely conquer anyone's taste buds."
As she spoke, she quickly diced the pickled radish and put it into the pan to stir-fry with the snail meat. The sizzling sound made the audience drool.
After the dishes were out of the pot, An Lang took a small bite and said sincerely: "Lin Dan, what should I do if I don't want to leave?"
Lin Dan did not respond, but washed the chopping board and started chopping the chicken. An Lang looked at her red ears and couldn't help but chuckle.
[Mr. An is despicable!] I finally understood that all this was his conspiracy! The reason why he pursued Bai Ma was to monopolize Bai Ma's cooking skills! 】An audience member said indignantly.
[This speculation is reliable!] When cooking, Bai Ma is the most charming woman in the world. There is no man she cannot conquer! 】
[My mother asked me why I licked the screen while looking at the computer, and I cried with laughter! 】
[I suddenly remembered a saying - if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. Bai Ma has such superb cooking skills, what kind of man can't she catch? I am a woman and I am willing to be with Bai Ma for the rest of my life! Tip, tip. If the amount is large enough and attracts Bai Ma’s attention, maybe I’ll be the next lucky person to receive bibimbap sauce from Bai Ma, hahahaha…]
[Reward!] Fight for the bibimbap sauce! 】
[The rich can go to the scene to eat, but the poor can only wait for Bai Ma to turn over the card. What else can I say? Give us a reward! 】
While Lin Dan was cooking, gold coins were raining in the live broadcast room. The amount of charity raised by Bai Zhilan jumped up every second, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.
