Chapter 252: Meeting the Prime Minister After Separation

Qian Cencheng found a reason for himself to meet Li Xiao, dressed himself up, put on his favorite clothes, and followed Qian Nan into the car.

In the car, Qian Nan teased her, "Chengcheng, I heard that Li Xiao's cooking is delicious. Can I apply to go with him?"

"Yes, Brother Nan, you haven't tried the food cooked by Li Xiao. It's really delicious, especially the Chongqing and Sichuan cuisine he cooks. You can go together. I'll call Li Xiao and ask him to cook more. Brother Dong, do you want to come together?" I think the little brother can handle the food for two more people.

Qian Dong quickly stopped him, "No need, Xiaonan won't go either, he's just teasing you."

Just kidding, Li Xiao was eager to ask Chengcheng out for dinner as soon as he returned to Beijing. I guess he missed her so much. If the two of them, like big light bulbs, get close to him now, he will explode the light, right?

Uncle Qian repeatedly emphasized not to interfere with the young lady's feelings, and it would be better for them to keep a low profile at this time.

Qian Nan chuckled softly upon hearing this, agreeing with his brother's words.

In fact, he really wanted to meet Li Xiao, but his brother said he didn't want to go, so he would do it next time.

As Qian Cencheng was looking forward to it, the car finally stopped in the basement of Qinyuanju.

"Then I'll go upstairs. Brother Dong, Brother Nan, how are you going to prepare dinner? I don't think there's much food left at home."

Qian Dong saw that the two people in the car ahead had already headed for the elevator and nodded. "Go up. Don't worry about us. We can handle it ourselves. Contact me in advance when you leave."

It was rare that Chengcheng still remembered to care about their meals at this time, and Qian Dong was very relieved.

At least I wasn't completely possessed by that hungry wolf.

Qian Cencheng nodded. She knew that Dong Ge and the others could solve the dining problem by themselves, but she still couldn't help but show some concern.

She entered the elevator with a pile of food and daily necessities that she had packed at home.

As the floor numbers grew larger, her heart rate also increased.

When she reached the door, she slowed down and took a few deep breaths, trying to stop her frantic heart from beating.

He stretched out his hand, ready to press his fingerprint to open the door, paused, then retracted his hand and pressed the doorbell button next to him.

Li Xiao was preparing the last main dish - Laifeng fish - in the kitchen. When he heard the doorbell ring, he was stunned for a moment, thinking that it must be the girl who arrived. The joy in his heart surged up, but when he heard the ringing doorbell, the joy was suppressed a little.

He quickly put down the spatula, turned down the fire, walked quickly to the door, and saw from the access control video phone that it was indeed the girl he had been thinking about day and night.

He quickly opened the door and said, "Chengcheng, we haven't seen each other for just over ten days, and you're already alienated from me? You even rang the doorbell without changing the password or fingerprint. Next time you ring the doorbell, I won't open the door for you." He said the blaming words, but the smile on his face was as bright as a flower, and his eyes were staring at the girl greedily.

"I understand. I'll come in by myself next time." Isn't this considering that she is no longer an assistant and should be more careful?

Since the young man doesn't mind, then we'll keep it the same from now on, Qian Cencheng thought happily.

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. I think you have become more handsome." Seeing Li Xiao's beautiful smile, even though he was wearing an apron, Qian Cencheng looked at him for a moment with a smile on his face and praised him honestly.

Li Xiao laughed out loud now, "Chencheng has become even prettier."

Today, without fake makeup, Chengcheng's stunning face is fully revealed, and with her lovely smile, the whole room seems a little brighter.

So this is what it means to be a humble and glorious place...

Although he wanted to look at the girl a few more times, she was waiting for him at the stove.

"Chengcheng, please sit down for a while. I'm going to the kitchen first. We'll have dinner once one more dish is ready."

"Well, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll help you pack up these food and daily necessities." She gestured to the large bag of items in her hand.

Li Xiao saw that they were some of the teas, toiletries and skin care products that Sister Ruoxin often made herself. Thinking that there was really not much stock left at home, she smiled and let her go.

In the intervals of cooking in the kitchen, Li Xiao felt warm in his heart when he saw the girl placing items in various storage cabinets in the house as usual.

Qian Cencheng took the last bit of tea in the bag and stored it in the refrigerator outside the kitchen door.

"Brother, you must tell me in time when these things are about to run out, especially skin care products. You must use them every day. Don't be lazy when I'm not around." The brother has never been keen on using skin care products and needs her to remind him from time to time.

"I know. I'm not lazy. I'm using them all." Li Xiao felt amused. It seemed that the girl had developed assistant syndrome and didn't forget these trivial matters even after leaving her job.

He had gradually gotten used to the days without her care, and as he missed her so much, he was more aware of the things she had told him than when she was around.

"Although Sister Ruoxin went abroad to study, she did make a large batch of stock for us before she left. These don't have any preservatives added, so the shelf life isn't long. If you don't use them, it would be a shame if they expired."

Qian Cencheng continued muttering, "And it doesn't matter if it's all used up. I know all the recipes, so I should be able to make it, right?"

The girl said a little uncertainly.

It's really strange. She is very good at doing experiments, but when it comes to making food and daily necessities, she just can't do it well.

When Li Xiao heard her muttering, he thought of what Sister Ruoxin had complained to him before, and couldn't help but want to laugh, "It's okay, if you don't mind me knowing the recipe, I'll try to make it with you later."

After putting the tea in, Qian Cencheng leaned against the kitchen door and watched Li Xiao give the final seasoning to the Laifeng fish. His eyes lit up when he heard it, "Okay, okay, I don't mind. Then the recipe is only suitable for small quantities for personal use." After all, all the raw materials are not cheap.

While we were chatting and laughing, the last dish was served.

Qian Cencheng smelled the strong aroma of fish, smiled, took the bowls and chopsticks for both of them, and followed Li Xiao, who was carrying the Laifeng fish, to the restaurant.

Li Xiao took out the red wine that had been boiled in advance, poured two glasses, and handed one to the girl.

"Wow, you even prepared red wine. That's great! Fine wine goes perfectly with fine food!"

Qian Cencheng had drunk red wine with Qingge two years ago when they were traveling.

In my impression, the red wine is not difficult to drink, but it is not very delicious either.

But in this situation, she really had the urge to have a drink.

Li Xiao raised his glass. "Although it's a little late, I still want to congratulate you on your admission to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Come, for our ideals and for our reunion, cheers!"

"Thank you, brother, cheers!" Qian Cencheng picked up the wine glass and took a big sip.

Hmm, it seems to taste better than the first time?

Maybe it was the year or brand of the wine, maybe it was the atmosphere, or maybe it was the people she was drinking with were different?

With her mind in a state of confusion, she took another sip.

"Drink slowly. Let's make a deal first. We'll only have this one drink tonight." Seeing the girl's heroic way of drinking, Li Xiao was afraid that she would get drunk.

He didn't know how much she could drink, but he knew that there were rich family members guarding her outside.

He didn't dare to get her drunk, nor was he willing to do so.

A little wine can make you happy, but getting drunk is not beautiful anymore.

Besides, my alcohol tolerance is just so-so.

The two of them finally had some time to themselves, and he still had so many things to say to her.

But they couldn't get drunk, neither he nor she.

While drinking, the two chatted about their respective experiences since they last met. Although some of them had been discussed on the phone, it felt different to talk about them face to face at this moment.

Qian Cencheng ate his favorite Laifeng fish and sighed, "Mm, it's delicious! I haven't had such delicious Laifeng fish since Sister Ruoxin went abroad. Brother, I think the Laifeng fish you made tonight is even better than Sister Ruoxin's."

"That's an illusion you've had since you haven't eaten it in a long time. Be careful, Sister Ruoxin, if you find out, I won't make it for you anymore. It's delicious, so eat more. I bought a bigger fish, which is enough for you."

Li Xiao held the wine and watched the girl eat the dishes he had cooked with great care, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

Dinner for two with some wine is really nice.

Not only has the atmosphere become better, but he has also become bolder.

He asked questions that he might not normally dare to say.

"Chengcheng, is your lab really that busy? After you came back, I could never get through to you on the phone, and it took a long time to get a reply when I sent you a Fetion message. Are you planning to stop being my fan?" Li Xiao asked a little aggrievedly while still drunk.
