Bro, you are a policeman, not a thug

Outside the courtyard.

Ye Wu, who couldn't stand the sweet dog abuse, drove away.

Before leaving, he said to his younger brother, "Come to the Ministry of State Security tomorrow!"

Xiao Mu's heart trembled.

I also thought of something.

Guoan still owes him a credit, what could it be?

"go home."

Ye Qiuling shook his arm, her slender, curled eyelashes trembling slightly, and her face flushed slightly. "Take a shower."

Why are you blushing?

Xiao Mu thought about it and laughed.

When we were in Lancheng, he said he would take a bath when he got home.

He also asked Brother Qiu to give him a shoulder massage.

She agreed!

……

In the bathroom.

After taking off his clothes, Xiao Mu soaked in the bathtub.

The warm water is as smooth as silk, and all the fatigue is slowly dissipating.

Feeling the warmth in the bathtub, the whole world becomes soft and comfortable.

Xiao Mu felt so comfortable that he wanted to hum.

suddenly.

Footsteps were heard and a figure came to the bathtub.

Sitting on a small chair, she stretched out a pair of jade-like little hands and placed them on Xiao Mu's shoulders.

Knead gently and massage him.

Feels good... Xiao Mu grinned and laughed silently, "Use a little more strength, haven't you eaten yet?"

Ye Qiuling rolled her eyes beautifully, puffed out her cheeks, and used a little more force.

"Brother Qiu, why don't you dare go out?"

Xiao Mu asked with a smile, his eyes closed.

"do not know."

Ye Qiuling's voice gradually weakened.

"Shall I tell you a story about myself?"

Xiao Mu held a small hand on his shoulder.

Knead and play with.

"Yeah." Ye Qiuling nodded.

"In the past, I was very proud."

Xiao Mu smiled and said, "I still remember the first time I went to a Western restaurant, my friend told me to order a medium-rare steak, otherwise I would be laughed at. At that time, I was afraid that others would laugh at me for being ignorant and not knowing how to eat Western food. So when I went to a restaurant again, I only ordered medium-rare."

A pair of arms wrapped around his neck from behind.

Ye Qiuling murmured softly, "What happened next?"

"Then I seemed to have grown up suddenly and understood a lot of things."

Xiao Mu smiled and said, "Just think about it, since we came to this world, we didn't intend to go back alive. What is there to be afraid of? What is there to be ashamed of? Why pretend? Why do we need to save face?"

"Ha ha……"

Ye Qiuling giggled like a hen, "What happened next?"

Since you have come to this world, don’t you plan to go back alive?

Listening to your words is better than listening to them at all!

"Then I realized that face is bullshit. Why should I sacrifice myself for the sake of face, for the fear of embarrassment, for the fear of being laughed at?"

Xiao Mu said cheerfully, "I went to a western restaurant with my friends again and ordered steak. The waiter asked me how I wanted it done. I said well-done, or at least slightly burnt. I don't like it too rare."

"The waiter was stunned, and my friends looked at me like I was stupid."

"At that time, far from feeling embarrassed, I felt indescribably happy."

"The waiter looked at me with a hint of disdain and told me they only had medium and medium-rare. Could you please give me medium-rare?"

"I told him I want it well-done, and if your chef doesn't know how to make it, I can go to the kitchen and teach him."

"The waiter left, but our friends still looked at me like I was stupid."

Xiao Mu opened his eyes, looked at Qiu Ge who was standing right next to him, and asked with a smile, "Guess what happened next?"

Ye Qiuling shook her head, looking curious.

"The chef personally brought the steak to me, gave me a glass of wine and a pair of chopsticks, and cut the steak for me."

Xiao Mu continued, "The chef said, 'Brother, you know how to eat.' But do you know that if a customer doesn't order well-done, everyone in the kitchen will laugh at him? We chefs eat well-done ourselves, too. Foreigners' tastes aren't suited to ours. How can you pretend to be so cool by ordering steaks cooked a certain way?"

Ye Qiuling looked stunned.

She was thinking, how could this be?

But after careful consideration, I feel that this is how it should be.

This is Dragon Country.

Chinese people don’t like to eat uncooked meat, so many Western dishes are not suitable for Chinese people.

As a chef, I know this better than anyone else.

But the chef saw a group of Chinese people who, in order to save face and show off, learned to eat like foreigners and adapt to their tastes.

Do you think the chef won’t laugh at you and call you an idiot?

How wicked are you to pay for trouble?

Ye Qiuling thought of a joke.

Primitive man: We discovered fire and can finally eat cooked food.

Modern people: We want to eat it raw.

Don’t you think it’s funny?

"Later, I became friends with the chef, and he told me a secret."

Xiao Mu smiled and said, "He said that well-done is actually a test of a chef's skills, because if it's not done well, it's hard to chew, or the taste is bad. So most Western chefs, especially bad chefs, are reluctant to cook well-done. It really tests their skills, and they are afraid that if they mess it up, it will ruin their reputation. 7 points and 9 points are the easiest to cook."

"For example, if you order well-done, you'll know the quality of the food after just one bite. If it's not good, you can frown after the first bite, spit it out with a wet wipe, shake your head, get up and leave."

"If it's a high-end Western restaurant, they will keep you and ask the kitchen to make another one, and they will also let someone with a high status in the kitchen do it."

"Bring another one, you take a bite, spit it out, and angrily say to your supervisor: You think it's funny to waste my time, don't you?"

"Then, you'll be able to enjoy the well-done steak that the chef of this Western restaurant has carefully prepared for you...that those idiots look down upon."

"Because the best steak, the most technically demanding steak, is cooked well-done."

"And my chef friend said, 'Brother, you don't even know. When you asked for a well-done steak, the waiter even spiced it up. We in the kitchen thought someone was causing trouble and were almost scared to death. That's why I came out to bring you some wine. You almost scared me to death.'"

"Brother Qiu, don't you think it's funny?"

"Ha ha……"

Ye Qiuling laughed so hard that her body shook. "It's so fun."

She discovered that the child's story was not about steak or Western food at all.

Instead, let her be bolder and braver and try new things.

What is shame, what is face, what is fear, what are they?

"understood?"

Xiao Mu turned his head and suddenly kissed her cheek.

"Ok!"

Ye Qiu'er blushed, but she didn't hide, and her cheeks were flushed.

"Brother Qiu, you might as well be brave.

Xiao Mu held Ye Qiuling's hand and said, "Life is still long, and the end of the story is still far away. Let's work hard together, what do you say?"

Ye Qiuling's beautiful eyes were more dazzling than ever before, like a pair of twinkling stars.

Then she really got bold.

He kissed the child's cheek and murmured.

"it is good!"
