Chapter 34: Chapter 34 She Is Third Brother’s Fiancée
It’s her first time inviting Lu Xingzhi for a meal, so of course, she needs to respect her opinion.
"Hotpot? I love it too! I like it spicy." Lu Xingzhi likes spicy food. On her birthday, if Huo Jincheng hadn’t come, she actually planned to make herself some spicy braised fish.
In the end, she made it steamed.
"Then let’s go for hotpot. I also like it spicy; let’s not do the double-flavor pot, just go for the red oil one." Helian Xi was excited to finally find someone with the same taste preferences.
The girls in their circle eat like kittens, while she can eat as much in one meal as they do in three.
"Little Zhi Liao, if you’re not in a hurry, I’ll take you to a farm to eat. Their sauces are all secret recipes. Besides hotpot, they have other foods too. I usually go there. The fish is sliced so thinly, it’s incredibly tender. And when dipped in their sauce, oh my!"
Speaking of it, Helian Xi couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"I’m not in a hurry, and not hungry yet." But just hearing Helian Xi’s description made Lu Xingzhi crave it terribly.
She naturally was willing to spend more time going to the farm with her.
"I’m serious, Little Zhi Liao, I’m not lying to you. The fish are all raised by them, and besides fish, they also have lamb. Then, I’ll take you to have a whole roasted lamb. We can also have roasted piglet, golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. No sauce needed for this; use chili powder. Their chili powder is also homemade. It’s so fragrant. And also..."
Lu Xingzhi could feel her saliva dripping down as the imagery was too vivid, so she interrupted her, "You better focus on driving!"
She wasn’t hungry initially, but now she felt her stomach growling fiercely.
"Alright! But later, would you prefer fish hotpot or lamb hotpot?" Helian Xi began explaining the differences between the two, "If it’s fish hotpot, I recommend the pickled vegetable flavor. You can choose the spiciness level for it anyway. If it’s lamb hotpot, then it’s spiced red oil, super satisfying."
Lu Xingzhi wanted to eat both; she also wanted the roasted piglet and whole lamb.
"Let’s have the fish first!" After much deliberation, Lu Xingzhi finally said.
No way, after all, she loved fish the most!
"Alright! Then fish it is today." Helian Xi had no objections; after an hour of driving, they finally stopped in front of a farm.
"We’re here, Little Zhi Liao. I’ll take you inside. Let me tell you, this farm is actually owned by a friend of my third brother. You can not only eat here but also enjoy some leisure activities. Up ahead, you can fish on your own; behind there’s a golf course. Further ahead, there’s an equestrian field, and then..."
Helian Xi explained to Lu Xingzhi as they walked.
Suddenly, a male voice called out, "Hey! Helian Xiaoxi, you haven’t been here in ages."
When he saw Lu Xingzhi, the man paused and scrutinized her for a moment, "Which family is this sister from? She looks a bit unfamiliar. So strikingly beautiful, if I’d seen her before, I’d remember."
"Brother Shihuai, this is Brother’s fiancée. You haven’t seen her, it’s normal," Helian Xi dropped a bomb in Qin Shihuai’s heart.
