Let Me Ruffle Your Fur a Little - Chapter 44
The next morning, a seafood supplier came to deliver seafood at six o’clock in the morning, so Bai Yao set the alarm clock, so as not to wake up Mu Mu’er, he even stuffed his phone under his pillow.
Three seconds after the alarm clock rang in the morning, Bai Yao turned it off, and lay down quietly for a while, making sure that Mu Muer was not woken up before slowly getting up.
Mu Muer was sleeping soundly, huddling tightly beside Bai Yao, holding his hand as usual, Bai Yao lightly put his hand down, moved out of bed bit by bit, went to the bathroom outside the room to wash up Then go downstairs.
At ten past six, the delivery car arrived on time. Bai Yao helped the delivery man move several boxes of seafood into the kitchen from the back door, checked and checked to make sure there was no problem, and then signed.
Bai Yao ordered ten kinds of fish, four kinds of shrimps, and various fans and shellfish for the rest.
This is the largest purchase recently and should be able to operate for the next two weeks.
After receiving the goods, you can’t rest. The first thing to do is to open the box and check each fish to make sure that there are no spoiled or stale ingredients in it.
After the five boxes of fish have been inspected, they can be put directly into the freezer, and then the fish that needs to be cut into pieces will be processed.
For example, tuna fish are sold whole. After Bai Yao received it, he had to cut the fish into whole pieces and stack them neatly on a tray before putting them in the refrigerator. This project needs to be completed as soon as possible. The shorter the contact time between raw fish and normal temperature air, the better. It is extremely important to ensure the quality and freshness of ingredients.
After everything was cleaned up, it was almost eight o’clock. Mu Mu’er usually slept until half past eight. Bai Yao thought that if he went upstairs now, he could wake up with him, so that the child would not find himself after waking up. .
He was about to go upstairs from the side of the restaurant when he heard three or four knocks on the door behind him, interspersed with a shout: “Brother Yao! Open the door for me!”
Bai Yao stood at the edge of the dining table in a daze for a moment, thinking for a moment that he got up too early and had hallucinations, and then turned back after hearing two knocks from the door.
He turned around and saw a thin and tall man standing at the door of the restaurant. When he saw him, he immediately raised his hand and waved it vigorously.
It’s Qi Ya.
Bai Yao sighed and hesitated for a second. If he didn’t open the door, Qi Ya would leave as he wished, and even knocked open the door and went into the kitchen to look for food.
The possibility of the latter is more than 90%, so Bai Yao still went to open the door.
“coming.”
Qi Ya entered the door unceremoniously, patted Bai Yao on the back, and greeted his old friend whom he hadn’t seen for several months: “Hey, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, and I don’t answer your calls. What are you doing in the kitchen?” ?”
Bai Yao nodded, and hit his shoulder with his fist in response, “It came quite quickly, I thought you’d have to dawdle for a few days.”
“I’m not thinking about you, Brother Yao.”
Qi Ya is actually only less than two months younger than Bai Yao, so in order to be able to eat the food he cooked, he called “Brother Yao” out of his heart.
Bai Yao raised his eyebrows, and immediately saw Qi Ya’s gaze towards the kitchen, “Is it me you’re thinking about?”
Qi Ya just returned to City C a few days ago, and came directly to Qiaohai Town yesterday without telling Bai Yao, thinking of giving him a surprise.
It was a pleasant surprise, Bai Yao was surprised if the ingredients he had just arrived were about to be eaten up.
“I booked a hotel for a week, and I will spend more time with you recently. No one talks to you, you must grow hair soon.” Qi Ya started nagging since he entered the door, “I was still thinking how could you not want me to talk to you?” Come on, we haven’t seen each other for so long, how much you miss me. I know you got up early, so you came here early. How about it, I can’t justify my triumphant return without celebrating. “
Bai Yao only had one word to describe Qi Ya – noisy.
I don’t know if it has something to do with his original body being a crow, Qi Crow can’t close his mouth when he opens his mouth, he can talk a lot, if no one interrupts, he can chatter for an hour continuously.
It was less than eight o’clock in the morning, and Bai Yao’s brain had already started to buzz. He suddenly thought that Mu Mu’er was still sleeping upstairs, and took advantage of Qi Ya’s time to breathe, so he almost reflexively “hushed”.
Qi Ya was keenly aware of Bai Yao’s gaze on the second floor, and suddenly remembered what happened when he was on the phone with him a few days ago, and his voice involuntarily lowered when he thought of something.
“What about you? Is there someone upstairs? Is Pao.you still there?” Qi Ya tried his best to suppress his voice a little, “Stay at home right away? Solid Pao? All right, you, you…”
In the middle of his words, there was a sound of opening the door upstairs, both of them fell silent and looked up together. Bai Yao belatedly realized that with Qi Ya’s character, he would have to eat Mu Mu’er in one bite.
But it’s too late now.
Mu Mu’er rubbed her eyes and walked down, walking very slowly, with a look of grievance and bewilderment on her face that she didn’t get enough sleep, she muttered “Yaoyao” in a low voice halfway up the stairs.
He saw Qi Ya at the door at a glance, his movements froze instantly, his eyes widened.
He was not used to meeting strangers in restaurants at this time, after all, the restaurant was only open at night. The corners of Mu Muer’s mouth drooped a little, her first reaction was to turn around and run back upstairs to hide.
Qi Ya was about the same height as Bai Yao, and more than half a head taller than Mu Muer. Mu Muer knew at a glance that she couldn’t beat him.
Running away if you can’t beat it is a habit he has developed over the years.
“Mu’er is fine.” Seeing that Mu Muer was about to go upstairs to hide, Bai Yao stopped him and waved, “Come on.”
Mu Mu’er heard the voice, and her eyes fell on Bai Yao who was standing next to Qi Ya. After thinking for a while, she slowly walked down the stairs and stood beside Bai Yao, half of her body was hidden behind him, secretly looking at Qi Ya.
The first thing he noticed was Qi Ya’s hair, it was very black, it was a kind of black that would not look brown even under sunlight, it was really close to ink.
If you look carefully, Mu Muer thinks that Qi Ya is quite good-looking, and he doesn’t seem to be that fierce. He has a sunny and handsome appearance, but he is much worse than Bai Yao.
Qi Ya saw Mu Muer’s whole struggle and hesitation in his eyes, opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and finally squeezed out a dry “It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Mu Mu’er didn’t understand the meaning of these two words at all, her brain was still a little dazed, her eyes were a little dull, and she didn’t respond.
“His name is Mu Mu’er.” Bai Yao briefly introduced Qi Ya, but did not give any more information.
“Hello… ah.” Qi Ya nodded to him.
The boy in front of him was as clean as frost and snow covered by a glacier, his skin was fair, and his eyes were as clear as a deer’s round eyes, Qi Ya had never seen such a good-looking man among the men he met.
He is not tall, looks only a little over 1.7 meters, thin and small, arousing pity.
very beautiful. It seems that boys should not be described as beautiful, but Qi Ya can’t think of other words, it seems that any other words are wrong, just beautiful, white and clean.
Is it reasonable for a man to look so good-looking? Qi Ya couldn’t help thinking that he wanted to make friends.
Bai Yao saw that he had no other reaction for a long time, and reminded him aloud: “He is not human.”
“What…what the hell?” Qi Ya looked at Mu Muer, and after a long time he came to his senses, sniffed the air slightly, and asked hesitantly, “Otter?”
“…he is a sea otter.” Bai Yao rolled his eyes and teased him, “What is your occupation?”
“No, I’m in charge of the plateau area, and sea otters live on the mountain?”
Bai Yao ignored him, turned around and took Mu Muer’s hand, led him forward, and whispered in his ear: “This is a bird, my friend.”
After finishing speaking, he chuckled and added: “Does Mu’er want to see him fly?”
Qi Crow: “…!?”
Glancing at Qi Crow’s face from white to green, Bai Yao raised the corners of his lips, recovered his normal voice, and said to Mu Muer, “He’s six years older than you, just call him Brother Qi.”
It took Mu Muer a long time to make a sound, with a little timidity in her eyes, “…Brother Qi.”
“Hey.” Qi Ya subconsciously responded, and the ending turned several turns.
Bai Yao slapped him on the head directly, turned around and walked upstairs, “He is timid, you are responsible for teasing him?”
After entering the door on the second floor, Bai Yao asked Qi Ya to sit casually, and went to the kitchen to get a cup and drink. Mu Muer doesn’t like to drink water, Bai Yao often squeezes fresh juice for him now, and there is still passion fruit juice made yesterday in the refrigerator, so he takes it out.
The three of them were all sitting at the dining table, and Mu Muer naturally clung to Bai Yao’s side after sitting down, and felt relieved only after her arms touched her arms.
Qi Ya sat across from the two of them.
He looked at the non-existent distance between the two with a little suspicion, and wanted to ask a few questions, but the words were held back.
It’s definitely not Pao You, but he can’t figure out what it looks like.
Mu Mu’er was most interested in passion fruit juice, so she obediently waited for Bai Yao to pour him a glass, then held it in her hand, staring at the seeds in the juice, thinking about something important.
If you don’t ask him directly, no one will know whether he is thinking about whether these seeds can be taken out and stored in his small pocket.
Even if Qi Ya saw that Mu Mu’er was not listening to what they were saying, he still didn’t have the nerve to ask Bai Yao about him in front of him, but just looked at him curiously, and then said something else.
He usually doesn’t talk much about his work to Bai Yao, but this time they are researching snow leopards, Qi Ya reckons Bai Yao will be interested.
“For more than a month, I lived the way the snow leopard lived.” Qi Ya began to complain, “I saw a blue sheep later, and I felt that I should pounce on it, otherwise I would be sorry for the skills I learned from Carly.”
“But the cubs born by Kali are really good-looking, and they are all healthy. I have always wondered if you were so good-looking when you were a child.” Qi Ya raised the corners of his lips, “It’s ready-made, I want to rub it.”
Carly is the name given to the female snow leopard by their research institute, and Qi Ya gave birth to a cub before she came back.
Qi Crow leaned forward and winked at Bai Yao meaningfully: “Show me your transformation? I haven’t seen what a snow leopard looks like up close. I don’t do anything but touch it. Study it.”
Bai Yao raised his eyebrows and didn’t say no, “Okay, then you can turn into a crow and let me pluck your hair.”
“…”
