Chapter 26

[Qiu Yi is really your classmate? /Surprised]

Tao Luanxi put himself in his father's shoes and recalled what his father had just gone through. He must have been quite frightened, so he quickly typed a line of words to comfort him.

[Lao Tao is not afraid, the man surnamed Qiu is really not a gangster. ]

The other party was probably still busy, and there was no reply for a while. Qiu Yi started the car, looked down at Tao Luanxi, and called softly: "Xixi!"

"Hmm?" Tao Luanxi was still waiting for the message to come back to his senses. When he heard someone calling his nickname, he responded consciously. After he responded, he realized that the person who called him was not his parents, and he let them take advantage of him.

Tao Luanxi turned around and saw Qiu Yi smiling happily, which made her even more unhappy. She felt that not only had she been taken advantage of, but she had also been taken advantage of.

"Let's go eat something before we go back!"

Tao Luanxi wasn't actually hungry. He had tasted all kinds of snacks and drinks this afternoon. But after coming back from the previous meal, he did have something that had been bothering him.

"Is it okay? Or are you in a hurry to go home?" Seeing that Tao Luanxi didn't answer for a long time, Qiu Yi thought that he was still struggling with how to refuse.

Tao Luanxi was actually thinking about sending a text message to her mother, who was probably cooking, to convey to her that she had found dinner for the night. When Qiu Yi asked, Tao Luanxi had just clicked the send button.

"Well," Tao Luanxi hummed for a long time: "My mother may not have prepared my meal."

Qiu Yi raised his lips slightly: "What do you want to eat?"

Tao Luanxi smacked his lips: "With a shell."

"Seafood? Then let's go to the seafood city, or do you want to eat Japanese food?"

"It's not that troublesome."

Qiu Yi was a little confused and turned to look at Tao Luanxi: "Oysters?"

“Red.”

"Crab?"

Tao Luanxi was speechless. This guy usually seemed to be very smart, so why was he acting stupid at this time?

"Lobster!" Tao Luanxi reminded him helplessly, "I want to eat lobster!"

Qiu Yi came to his senses and said, "Spicy lobster?"

Tao Luanxi nodded. Last time they had dinner together, Qiu Yi's bowl of crayfish and shrimp completely aroused Tao Luanxi's craving for it. She originally wanted to find an opportunity to take the whole family out for a meal, but the two adults at home were too busy to be seen recently, and the takeout nearby didn't have this dish. Tao Luanxi sighed while holding her white rice every day, thinking about this dish. The pork ribs and braised chicken in front of her didn't taste good anymore.

"I know a shop that serves pretty good lobster. Do you want to try it?"

"Lobster is fine, spicy."

Qiu Yi smiled: "Okay."

The restaurant Qiu Yi found was not far from the city. It was quiet and there were almost no customers. There was no noisy atmosphere of drinking beer and peeling shrimps at night markets. The waiter led the two people through a long corridor with bamboo shadows to the private room. Tao Luanxi was still looking at the decoration inside the private room. Qiu Yi had already casually recommended a few dishes and specifically told the waiter: "I want the lobster spicy."

The waiter looked at the words "Ice-Crusted Crayfish" clearly written on his menu, and began to think in confusion about how to tell the chef to make the ice-crusted crayfish spicy.

After the waiter left, Tao Luanxi fumbled with the bamboo green table mat and the white porcelain teacup, and made a fair prediction: "The spicy lobster in this restaurant must not be spicy or numbing."

Qiu Yi agreed while drinking water: "When the lobster is served, you can try it. If it doesn't taste good, ask him to make it again."

The chef in the back of the house was probably frantically figuring out how to turn ice cubes into chili peppers, so they served a few other dishes first. The flavors and decorations were both light, but the taste was also very good.

Tao Luanxi had eaten most of it, and by the time the lobster came up, she was already almost full.

The hot red crayfish gave off a spicy heat. Tao Luanxi had already been ready and as soon as the crayfish was served on the table, she immediately put it into her mouth.

This time Tao Luanxi's prediction was wrong. The spicy crayfish was very spicy and the shrimp tail was fresh and chewy, not any worse than those sold outside.

After having a good meal and a good drink, Tao Luanxi took off his gloves contentedly, looked up and saw Qiu Yi sitting opposite him drinking tea from a cup in one hand.

Tao Luanxi then remembered that this family didn't seem to eat lobster.

Looking at the pile of shrimp shells and the empty bowl in front of him, Tao Luanxi realized belatedly that he seemed to have eaten a little too much.

"Still eating?"

Tao Luanxi shook his head: "I'm full."

As a nutritionist at home, Tao Luanxi's mother always strives to eat until she is 80% full. Every time Tao Luanxi is greedy and wants to eat more, Tao's mother reminds her in a bad mood, "If you continue to eat, you will become a pig!"

But now it seems that the pig farmer opposite is quite happy, isn't he?

There was another snack later. Tao Luanxi didn't want to eat it at first, but when she saw the small snacks on the plate with crystal clear skins pinched into various shapes, she adhered to the principle of not wasting anything and made some space in her stomach for it.

When Tao Luanxi was enjoying her meal, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside. A young man leaned against the door and looked inside. The man was not wearing a waiter's uniform, and his gestures did not seem like those of a staff member here.

Tao Luanxi put down his chopsticks and was about to ask, "Who are you looking for?", but the other party saw him first and asked with a slightly surprised look on his face, "Bambi?"

Bambi?

Tao Luanxi's face was filled with black lines. Was he calling him?

Qiu Yi on the other end said coldly: "The guests are still eating, what are you doing here?"

"Get lost, you customer, stop flattering yourself! As soon as the chef said there was a strange customer who ordered spicy lobster, I knew it was you. You'd be unhappy if you didn't bother my chef, right?" Cheng Fei sat next to Qiu Yi familiarly, looking at Tao Luanxi with curiosity.

"That's great, Qiu Yi. How long has it been since you brought someone out for dinner? You're quite good at it!" Chen Ge extended his hand and smiled at Tao Luanxi: "I'm Qiu Yi's childhood friend, Cheng Fei."

Tao Luanxi took the hand and smiled: "Hello, my name is Tao Luanxi."

It’s not some damn Bambi, you are Bambi, your whole family is Bambi!

Cheng Fei looked at Tao Luanxi's smile with a somewhat unfathomable expression, turned around and said to Qiu Yi: "She's not as soft as you said. How come she still has a temper?"

Qiu Yi ignored him and tapped Cheng Fei's arm: "Let go."

Cheng Fei withdrew his hand awkwardly and muttered: "You won't even let me touch you twice? You're so stingy!"

Tao Luanxi had an inexplicable feeling as if he was being teased. Although this was the first time he met this guy named Cheng Fei and they didn't know each other well and didn't need to act as reserved as they did in front of their classmates at school, Tao Luanxi still wanted to maintain his good image.

"I am Qiu Yi's classmate."

What this means is that the relationship between me and your childhood friend is not what you think!

Cheng Fei was stunned, and turned to look at Qiu Yi: "You haven't gotten it after all this time? What are you doing that's so slow?"

…

Oh, no need to explain, the fact that he can't understand what people say is exactly the same as Qiu Yi, worthy of being a childhood friend. In this case, Tao Luanxi didn't plan to be polite.

Qiu Yi had no intention of paying any attention to him. He just lowered his head and drank water without saying a word.

Cheng Fei began to look at Tao Luanxi and talked to himself: "She does look good, and her skin is smooth. I've heard that your Bambi is good-looking before, and I'm a little jealous when I see her in person this time."

"Don't bother, you can't eat it."

"Oh?" Cheng Fei raised his eyebrows, looking very interested: "What do you mean?"

Tao Luanxi glanced at him indifferently: "I don't like people who are not as good-looking as me."

Qiu Yi burst out laughing, not giving himself any face at all: "You deserve it, did you tease him?"

Cheng Fei was stunned for a moment, but after he reacted, he was not angry anymore. He smiled and nodded, "Okay, very good. Qiu Yi, you have excellent taste. This is not a fawn at all, it's clearly a wild cat."

Tao Luanxi also understood that this person would be uncomfortable if he didn't give him a few nicknames. Forget it, just let him be!

Cheng Fei took a cup and poured some water into it, then held it in front of Tao Luanxi: "Brother, I said something wrong just now. Since Qiu Yi brought me here, we are all friends. I will toast you with water instead of wine, and let's put the matter behind us, how about that?"

Tao Luanxi didn't expect this person to be so open-minded. To be honest, this was the first time he had offended someone other than Qiu Yi. He had already prepared himself to never have anything to do with him again, but he didn't expect that the other party was not only not angry but also took the initiative to show goodwill to him.

Tao Luanxi picked up her cup and gently touched it against the other person's, making a crisp "ding" sound.

Cheng Fei smiled and nudged Qiu Yi with his elbow: "This one of yours is quite a gentleman!"

Qiu Yi frowned slightly: "What do these grandpas have to do with you?"

Cheng Fei said this with a hint of impatience. He smiled, as if he didn't care at all about the slight coldness in the other person's eyes: "Are you jealous? Qiu Yi, are you jealous?"

"I am the lemon spirit, do you have any opinions?"

The author has something to say: I changed to a new typing software but I don’t know how to use it, and I almost lost the entire chapter of the manuscript. I was so scared that I ate a bag of potato chips to relieve the shock!
