A plate of fried meat with green peppers, a pot of garlic, a plate of beef with pepper and a bowl of stew soup were finally served.
This seemingly simple three dishes and one soup, actually took Qin Leran an entire afternoon to prepare.
Of course, the reason why he could spend so much time was because Qin Leran's culinary skills had yet to reach the level of success once.
For example, the simple green pepper fried meat among the three dishes. The first time, it was fried and the second time, it was done. The third time, it was done with a good color, but it was too salty.
After wasting the ingredients three times, Qin Leran swore that he wouldn't eat it if it wasn't good.
As for the other dishes, there was no need to even mention the fact that they had been cooked a few times before they had their current results.
Looking at the three dishes and the bowl of soup on the table, and thinking of how Big Brother Lie would be praising him while he ate, Qin Leran was so happy that he had forgotten about his hands being scalded.
The clock on the wall indicated that it was almost six in the afternoon. Judging by the time, Big Brother Lie should be arriving soon.
Big Brother Lie came back from the disaster area three hours ago to take care of some things. He told her that he would come over from the North Palace after taking care of things at around six o'clock.
Because he was anxious to see Big Brother Lie, Qin Leran looked at the clock on the wall, counting every second it was.
It was still two minutes to six, just a hundred and twenty seconds, but she felt as if it had been an hour, as long as a minute.
But after two minutes had passed, the Big Brother Lie did not show up on time.
Right now, there was a heavy snowstorm blocking the road outside, causing the city to be very congested. It didn't matter if it came later, Qin Leran continued to wait as he looked at the clock.
Ten minutes passed, half an hour had passed, an hour had passed, the piping hot food on the table had become cold, Qin Leran could no longer sit still, and picked up his phone to call Quan Nandi.
When the call co
ected, a cold voice could be heard from the phone, "The user you have dialed has turned off. Please try again later!"
The first time was when Qin Leran tried again, and the second time was when he tried again, three, four, five times ?? It's all like that.
This number was Quan Nandi's private number. He had told her before that this number would turn on her computer 24 hours a day.
As long as she wanted him, she could call him anytime ??
Then why was he unable to get through now?
Qin Leran had a bad premonition, she quickly dialed Lin Jiacheng's number, and Lin Jiacheng quickly picked up.
Lin Jiacheng remained respectful as he said, "Miss Qin, hello!"
Qin Leran was anxious and did not have the mood to be courteous with him, hence he asked directly: "Where is your Mr. President? Where is he? "
Lin Jiacheng said: "Mr. President is in a meeting, it's not convenient for him to pick up the phone."
Qin Leran said: "At this time, what else would happen?"
When Big Brother Lie returned to North Palace, he promised to accompany her for di
er. If there really was something that delayed him, he would tell her in advance.
Lin Jiacheng said: "It's a major national affair."
It was a major national affair!
The four short words stopped Qin Leran from saying anything.
That's right, national affairs were the most important thing. How could she let her children's private feelings pester the Big Brother Lie so that he could not work properly?
"Alright, I understand." Qin Leran muttered, "Mister Lin, how long can he be busy for?"
Lin Jiacheng then said, "Miss Qin, the area affected by the snowstorm this time is very wide. There are too many people suffering from the snowstorm, I'm afraid Mr. President won't have much free time these days."
Qin Leran, "..."
Lin Jiacheng continued: "Miss Qin, you are a smart, magnanimous, and sensible girl. I think you wouldn't blame Mr. President, right?"
Hearing Lin Jiacheng say that, Qin Leran's anger rose: "Mister Lin, I only called to pay attention to him for a moment, do you think I would pester him senselessly and not let him handle national affairs?"
Lin Jiacheng said: "I didn't mean that."
Qin Leran continued: "No matter how busy he is, no matter how many things I do, he still has time to answer my call."
Lin Jiacheng, "..."
Qin Leran used all his strength: "After he finishes his meeting, get her to call me back. I'll be waiting. Please tell him what I said. "
With that, Qin Leran hung up the phone and waited for Big Brother Lie to call her back, waiting until it was late at night before calling his back.
If it wasn't for some delay, Big Brother Lie would definitely have called her back. Could he have ?? Qin Leran did not dare to think in a bad direction.
Qin Leran called Quan Nandi again. This time, it was without any surprise, that the cold voice of the machine came back from the phone: "The phone you have called is turned off. Please try again later."
Hearing the cold voice of the machine, Qin Leran's heart fiercely trembled. She knew that something must have happened to the Big Brother Lie, but he did not know what happened to him.
Qin Leran was very anxious and afraid, but she forced himself to calm down at the fastest time.
She immediately dialed Chang Li's number, and before she could even ask, Chang Li had spoken: "Miss, something happened at Mr. President."
As expected, finding Chang Li was not wrong, his knowledge was comparable to finding a national intelligence agency.
She said, "Tell me in detail."
Chang Li continued, "Today, there was a problem with the helicopter that returned to North Palace from the disaster area. The plane crashed and the casualties were unknown."
"What?" Qin Leran had expected that something bad would happen to Quan Nandi, but he never thought that something so serious would happen. Hearing Chang Li's words, her legs went soft and she slumped down on the sofa.
Chang Li continued: "Right now, that's all I know. But I'll send someone to keep it up and report back to you as soon as there's anything new. "
After hearing about Quan Nandi's helicopter accident, Qin Leran's mind was a complete blank at first, but right after, it was as if he was paste. He couldn't think of anything and could not see anything.
"Miss, Miss ??" Chang Li shouted one after another on the other side of the phone, but Qin Leran did not reply.
Thus, he went from his residence to Qin Leran's floor, and knocked on her door. When the knocking sound came, Qin Leran finally regained his senses.
She composed herself and said, "I'm fine."
Chang Li said: "Open the door."
Qin Leran shook his head: "You go do your thing."
She hung up the call from Chang Li, then dialed his number. After all, Shen Lingxi still had the title of President's fiancee. If something were to happen to Mr. President, they couldn't possibly hide it from her.
Very quickly, Shen Lingxi picked up the phone: Le Ran, is there something you need?
"Big Sister Lingxi, Big Brother Lie ??" After making the call, Qin Leran trembled so much that he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
