With the cooperation of the rest of the people, Xia Tian quickly completed a simple meal of four dishes and one soup.
"Okay, it's finally all done, everyone come and sit down!"
After Xia Tian brought the last dish of soup to the dining table that Xie Jinglong had temporarily found, he immediately called the others to come and eat.
Qiu Mengyun moved the small stool she had just used to make fire and sat down next to Xia Tian.
Xie Jinglong and He Yunting also went to another room and found two stools and came over.
Xia Tian smiled and said, "Since our conditions are limited, let's just keep it simple for now. When we have nothing to do in the evening, I'll cook a few more dishes and we can have a nice drink and chat."
He Yunting laughed and said, "Haha! This is already very good, much better than the hotel meals we had every day during the last show."
Xie Jinglong tasted the dish cooked by Xia Tian and gave him a thumbs up, praising him: "Brother Xia, your cooking skills are really amazing!"
"The conditions are so simple, and the seasonings and other ingredients are not complete, but the food you cook is still so delicious."
Xia Tian said modestly: "No, I'm just stir-frying it casually."
"You think it's delicious, a big part of the reason is because we've been busy all morning and are hungry now."
"After all, when you're hungry, everything tastes good."
Qiu Mengyun nodded in agreement: "That's right, although today's meal is not the most sumptuous, it is the most fragrant and delicious I have eaten in recent times."
Xia Tian: "If it tastes good, eat more. I don't know what I'll be busy with in the afternoon."
None of them was polite and they all started eating while chatting.
Just when they were enjoying their meal, Fang Wenxuan and Chen Qingqing came over following the smell.
Seeing Xia Tian and the other three chatting and laughing while eating delicious food, Fang Wenxuan's mouth was watering with greed.
He pointed in the direction of Xia Tian and the other three and whispered, "See? They've already started eating. Hurry over there now!"
"Remember to act pitiful when you get over there, or I'm afraid that Xia Tian won't let you have dinner."
Chen Qingqing made an OK gesture: "Don't worry, I'm a professional actor."
"Hide behind them and don't let them see you. Otherwise, I'm afraid they'll guess this is our plan."
Fang Wenxuan warned worriedly, "When you're full later, don't forget me!"
"I'll be there in a bit. Remember to speak up for me. If I fail, you must find a way to bring me some food."
Chen Qingqing nodded: "OK, I'll do it, don't worry!"
After saying that, he pretended to be looking for someone, looking around as he walked towards where Xia Tian and the others were.
When Chen Qingqing approached Xia Tian and the others, she deliberately slowed down her pace.
She thought that if Xia Tian and the others greeted her, she would just sit down.
At that time, I will just sit aside and watch them eat. I'm sure they will feel embarrassed.
No matter who invited her to eat together, she would just stay and eat for free.
Her idea was good, but Xia Tian and the others did not cooperate.
Although they all saw Chen Qingqing, they continued to eat and chat.
No one paid any attention to her at all, and no one even glanced in her direction.
Seeing that it was unrealistic to wait for Xia Tian and the others to greet her proactively, Chen Qingqing gritted her teeth and walked over.
Even though she had already walked behind Xia Tian and the others, they continued to eat and chat as if nothing had happened.
Chen Qingqing didn't hesitate and took the initiative to speak: "Mengyun, Sister Ting, have you seen Wenxuan?"
He Yunting shook her head and uttered two words very briefly: "No!"
Seeing that He Yunting had already answered, Qiu Mengyun simply lowered her head and continued eating.
Seeing that they didn't seem to want to pay attention to her, Chen Qingqing had no choice but to continue: "Alas! Fang Wenxuan is too unreliable. He said he was going out to find food for me."
"But they've been out for more than half an hour, and no one has returned yet."
"I'm so hungry, could he be hiding and eating by himself?"
She said this on purpose, and even specifically said that she was extremely hungry, just to let Qiu Mengyun or He Yunting take the initiative to give her the seat.
But after she finished speaking, no one responded.
This made her feel very embarrassed, and she didn't know whether to leave or stay.
If it were any other time, she would have left long ago.
But at this moment, she really couldn't bear to leave.
When she came in the morning, she got up late and hadn't had breakfast.
Her stomach was already growling with hunger. If she left now, she would still be hungry when she returned.
You know, her bag was filled with all kinds of cosmetics, and she didn't bring any snacks at all.
She originally thought that as a man, Fang Wenxuan would definitely bring some extra things with him, and he should be able to prepare such basic things.
When I got there, I found out that Fang Wenxuan didn't bring any food just like me.
Seeing that the food on the table was getting smaller and smaller, Chen Qingqing finally decided to put aside her pride and take the initiative.
She looked at Xie Jinglong across from her and asked, "Brother Long, I don't know when Wenxuan will be back. Can I have lunch with you guys today?"
The reason why she chose Xie Jinglong was because she felt that this kind of pretending to be pitiful and miserable was better done when facing the opposite sex, as it was more likely to arouse the protective desire and sympathy in men.
As for why she didn't look for Xia Tian, it was because Xia Tian was a guy who never played by the rules, and she was not sure she could convince Xia Tian.
Hearing Chen Qingqing's words, Xie Jinglong put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Sorry, Qingqing, Xia Tian made this meal, and even repaired the stove."
"So, if you want to stay for dinner, you should ask his opinion first!"
Hearing what Xie Jinglong said, Chen Qingqing's expression suddenly fell.
I chose to talk to Xie Jinglong because I didn't want to talk to Xia Tian, but I didn't expect that this guy would push me to Xia Tian again.
But at this point, she had no choice but to continue speaking.
She gathered her emotions and looked at Xia Tian pitifully: "Xia Tian, can you please let me stay for dinner?"
Xia Tian smiled and said, "Well! I personally have no opinion on this matter, but my wife has the final say in our family, so I need to discuss this matter with my wife."
When Chen Qingqing heard Xia Tian say that he had no objection, the joy on her face was about to overflow.
She really didn't expect that Xia Tian would be so easy to talk to this time. He agreed just after she mentioned it.
Could it be that my charm has improved recently?
Or is it that he has been with Qiu Mengyun for too long and is a little bored and wants to change his taste?
If I had known this would happen, I would have gone straight to him instead of looking for Xie Jinglong, that indecisive guy.
