Chapter 495 Plan Begins [4000]
After Xia Xiong finished speaking, he looked at everyone with his eyes full of expectation as he watched everyone reach out to pick up the food.
Ding Yuning forced a smile, and his hand holding the chopsticks was shaking a little.
He quickly scanned all the plates, then hesitated and couldn't reach out his chopsticks.
He couldn't help but look at the others for help, but it turned out that they were not much better than him. They all looked around with their chopsticks in their hands and couldn't bring themselves to eat.
In fact, if you look at each ingredient individually... Ding Yuning doesn't like any of them.
Help, he really doesn't like eating any insects, animal organs or heads!
However, compared to the lizards, centipedes, crickets, poisonous spiders and the like that Xia Xiong had specially found before.
These are indeed ingredients that can be bought in any vegetable market and that some people like to eat.
Although Xia Xiong's combination was a bit strange and the appearance was a bit bizarre, it was still not completely impossible to eat it if he forced himself to.
Ye Siren was very considerate and was the first to pick up the chopsticks and directly picked up the 'Blood Pudding with Crispy Fried Silkworm Pupa' in front of him.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him, watching Ye Siren suddenly stuff a silkworm pupa into his mouth and chew it quickly with his eyes closed.
Then the chewing movement suddenly slowed down, as if he was savoring it slowly, and then he suddenly opened his eyes.
With eyes full of surprise, he gave everyone a thumbs-up, then immediately looked at Xia Xiong and praised:
"Wow, it's delicious, Brother Xiong. The silkworm pupae are crispy and delicious, and they have a little chicken flavor."
Ye Siren's expression was as sincere as it could be. Xia Xiong's eyes lit up, and he held his hands and said in surprise like a little girl:
"Really?! I told you my new recipe is amazing, right?! If you like it, eat more. You should also try the blood sausage below, it's really good!"
Xia Xiong immediately and happily scooped a spoonful of blood pudding for Ye Siren. This time, Ye Siren opened his mouth without hesitation.
Then after tasting it carefully, his eyes still lit up as he watched Xia Xiong nodding his head and constantly commenting and praising it.
Xia Xiong was so coaxed that he was overjoyed. The two of them exchanged glances, one feeding the other and praising him while he ate.
Ding Yuning's facial features were all wrinkled together, and his mind was full of thoughts: "Fuck, is this the power of love? It's too scary, retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
Xia Yu and Xia Mei clapped their hands simultaneously with admiration on their faces, and looked at Ye Siren with eyes full of admiration.
Xia Mei leaned over to the group and sighed softly, "He's really worthy of being called Dad. He's even willing to sacrifice his life to make his mother Darling happy."
Xia Yu also shook his head and said with emotion: "I really admire you. If Dad could use his ability to fool Brother Xiong to make money, I think we would have been rich second-generations long ago."
Only Xia Tian stared at the dish that looked so good, hesitantly asking:
"Is there a possibility that Dad isn't kidding, and it really tastes good?"
Xia Mei made a big X with her hands without hesitation and said, "That's absolutely impossible!"
Gui Long leaned back in his chair and glanced at Ding Yuning, who was trying to give Xia Xiong a taste of her dish but couldn't bring himself to do so. This caused him to glance at Ding Yuning, who had lost all hope in life and didn't want to participate in everyone's conversation.
Then he directly picked up the chopsticks and picked up Xia Xiong's first dish, 'Deep-fried Ox Eyeballs with Fermented Bean Curd Sauce', and put it into his mouth without hesitation.
The others who noticed his actions also turned their attention to Guilong. Even Xia Xiong, who was originally flirting, stared at Guilong with anticipation.
Guilong chewed and swallowed without any expression of discomfort from beginning to end.
Finally, he put on a smile, met Xia Xiong's expectant eyes, and commented:
"Not bad, it's crispy when you bite it, and then it's soft, chewy, and very fragrant!"
Xia Xiong immediately and happily picked up a few more for Guilong, and said with loving eyes:
"Hahahaha, if it tastes good, eat more. Mom will cook for you more often in the future!"
Guilong's mouth twitched slightly, and then he politely ate the food that Xia Xiong picked for him one by one.
Ding Yuning stared at Guilong's expression and saw that he didn't look reluctant. He even nodded at him when they met his gaze.
Ding Yuning was immediately surprised. Guilong forced Xia Xiong to eat Thaksin in order to coax him, but Guilong would definitely not cheat him.
For a moment, I couldn't help but think, "Could it be that Jiu Wu's mouth is really very curious?
But Xia Xiong’s dishes only look scary, but do they really taste good?
The others had similar thoughts to Ding Yuning. They did not think that Guilong would force himself too much, especially since although Guilong was not moving quickly, he still had not put down his chopsticks.
This made everyone except Ding Yuning and Han Karamahan unable to resist and want to try it.
At this moment, Xia Liu let out a sigh. Everyone turned their heads and found that Xia Liu was leaning back in his chair, holding his stomach with a look of satisfaction on his face.
It turned out that Xia Liu had served himself a bowl of 'Beef Placenta and Mushroom Nourishing Soup' at some point, and he had already drunk it all.
When Xia Mei saw Xia Liu's expression, her eyes lit up and she asked expectantly, "Grandpa, is this really delicious?"
Xia Liu sat up, smiled, and nodded, praising, "Although it's still not comparable to what's available outside, it's rare that Brother Xiong makes such delicious soup. It's really tasty~"
Xia Xiong watched them talk, then stood up and served Xia Liu a bowl of pig spinal cord stewed with stinky tofu soup and placed it in front of him.
Xia Liu immediately pinched his nose, looked at the bowl in front of him with disgust, and complained to Xia Xiong:
"What are you doing? Are you trying to stink up your old father? I don't want to drink this. I only want the mushroom soup."
Xia Xiong simply swapped the positions of the two soups and placed the soup that Xia Liu had drunk between Xia Mei and Han Karamahan.
She placed the bowl of soup she had given to Xia Liusheng in front of him before explaining:
"No, Dad, that's not mushroom soup, it's 'Beef Placenta Mushroom Soup'.
I stewed this specially for Xia Mei to replenish her qi and blood, and it is also good for girls during menstruation, so I put it there so that Xia Mei and Han can drink more.
This is the 'Pork Spinal Cord Stewed with Stinky Tofu Soup' that I made specially for you. It's good for your brain and memory. Why don't you try it?"
Xia Mei heard Xia Xiong say that this mushroom soup was specially stewed for her, and Xia Liu had just tasted it and confirmed that it tasted really good.
I immediately served myself a bowl happily, took a sip, and made sure that it tasted good.
He quickly greeted Han Klamahan and said, "It really tastes good, Han, you should try it too!"
Now Xia Yu and Xia Tian no longer hesitated. They each picked a dish that was closer to them and seemed slightly acceptable to them, and tried it.
Maybe our expectations were really low, so even though we felt that most of the dishes weren’t that delicious, they weren’t that hard to swallow either.
With the ingredients this time, everyone was able to accept it, and finally everyone started eating with peace of mind.
Only Ding Yuning, who was naturally resistant to these ingredients, was reluctant to pick up his chopsticks, until Xia Xiong looked over.
He gritted his teeth, then picked up a chopstick and took a bite of the 'Durian Curry Stewed Beef Tendon' in front of him. Although the combination was still strange, at least they were ingredients he could accept.
He couldn't compare the taste of the dishes Xia Xiong had made before. Although Ding Yuning was not too picky about food, he would never treat himself badly.
At this moment, I just felt that my mouth was sticky and greasy, the curry was fragrant and smelly, and the beef tendon seemed to have been soaked for too long and was not chewy but soft.
Ding Yuning subconsciously wanted to retch, but he forced himself to suppress his laughter. In the end, he directly transferred the food in his mouth to the bottom of the tree in Ningjuyuan as fertilizer.
Then he looked up and smiled at Xia Xiong, gave him a thumbs-up, and faced her loving eyes as he continued to pick up the food.
But this time, Ding Yuning transferred the food directly into the space the moment it entered the entrance. It was not because he wanted to waste food, but mainly because he did not want to embarrass himself.
Eating this way would reduce a lot of psychological burden, and she deliberately and warmly invited Xia Xiong to eat quickly, and very considerately gave Xia Xiong a little of each dish.
He admitted that he just wanted to see if Xia Xiong could eat it all and whether he really thought his food was delicious.
Emmm...It turned out that Xia Xiong really thought it was good, and she happily ate the dishes that Ding Yuning picked for her.
She had an expression as if she was enjoying delicious food, and she sighed from time to time while drinking the soup, feeling that the food her precious son had personally picked for her had made it taste several levels more delicious.
Xia Yu, who was worried that he would not be able to finish so many dishes, suddenly brightened up his eyes and immediately winked at Xia Tian and Xia Mei.
Then the other two immediately understood what he meant and joined Xia Yu in sweet-talking and constantly picking up food for Xia Xiong.
Although we didn't finish all the dishes in the end, we all ate them to our heart's content.
When Ding Yuning and Xia Yu took the initiative to clean up the dishes and prepare to wash them, Xia Xiong pushed them away.
He was in a very good mood and hummed a song and wanted to tidy up by himself, and the two of them did not rush to do it together.
Xia Yu called out to Ye Siren, who was lying on the sofa ready to watch the game, and asked him to accompany Xia Xiong.
Then he winked at Ding Yuning, indicating that he wanted to go out and talk to him privately.
Ding Yuning nodded and told Guilong that he was going out to digest his food. Guilong also saw that they had something to say and did not follow them.
After the two of them walked some distance away, Ding Yuning took the initiative to speak: "Brother Yu, you came back late today, isn't there any progress?"
Xia Yu nodded and said, "I didn't expect them to be so impatient to change their target, and I suspect they were already targeting me."
Ding Yuning: "What did they do?"
Xia Yu thought of something funny and chuckled, then spoke with interest:
"The post you and Bing Xin posted on campus has still not gone down in popularity.
Many classmates who had never met her heard that a beautiful junior sister had come to the Economics Department, and they came to wait for her, but found that she never came.
Someone said that they saw Professor Li bringing Bing Xin to register that day.
And that Professor Li was the economics professor Li Facai who suddenly called me last time and asked me to deliver some information.
He took the initiative to contact me today and arranged a thesis topic for me. He also expressed that he was very optimistic about my intention to help me become his graduate student.
The most important thing is that he deliberately mentioned Bing Xin, saying that Bing Xin was his friend's daughter, and he heard that my brother and she seemed to be a boyfriend and girlfriend so he took the opportunity to show his concern.
I showed that I was very interested in being admitted to graduate school, and I was a little curious about the relationship between you and Bing Xin, but I didn't know much about it.
He pretended to be confused and said casually, "It seems that you broke up with Bing Xin. The day before yesterday, you came home in a bad mood and said that you would not contact each other again."
He didn't seem to be too emotional, and then he told me to focus on writing my paper and left.
When Xia Yu said this, his brows slightly furrowed, and he spoke in a serious tone:
"From the moment I walked out of his office, I felt like someone was watching me from the shadows.
Many passers-by I met later seemed to be manipulated in an instant and suddenly said to me, "You are not a Muggle, are you?"
Then everything returned to normal in an instant, as if nothing had happened.
If I hadn't been prepared, I might have been really scared and thought I had gone crazy thinking about super powers and had a mental problem. "
Ding Yuning raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that the Demon Lord of Phantom Eyes would be so decisive. He changed his target and started to act so quickly.
Ding Yuning: "It's not necessarily that he's controlling passersby on a large scale. The Illusion Eye Demon Lord is a monster that excels at illusions. He might have used some props to influence your perception.
But they did act quickly, probably because they thought that Brother Yu, as the only Muggle in the Xia family, would be unwilling to accept this.
So they want to inspire your obsession with super powers, and then guide you step by step, so that you can become a demon in order to possess super powers and then be controlled by them.
Judging from their current eagerness, they will probably confront you directly within two days, and may even give you some sweet treats about awakening your superpowers.
If it's some kind of superpowered device, Brother Yu, just take it. I'll show it to Senior Bingdao and maybe he can modify it so you can use it normally."
Xia Yu nodded, smiled and put his arm around Ding Yuning, saying, "We are indeed the two smartest children in the Xia family. We even have exactly the same ideas.
I have been acting a little distracted at school these past two days, so I asked him to contact me as soon as possible to take the next step.
As for wanting me to become a demon, don't worry, I will never be demonized."
Ding Yuning: "Of course I believe that you, Brother Yu, will not be deceived by them.
But in order to prevent them from using any means against you in secret that you cannot defend against.
You can move to my house temporarily for the time being, and I will play "Qingxin Qu" for you for an hour every day.
It just so happens that you and Guilong each have one of the two secondary bedrooms in my house."
