Chapter 204: Taking the Champion to Eat the Hot Pot
"Well, it's finally out."
Chen Xi stretched and made a very coquettish sound.
After waking up Windy, Chen Xi and Shirona stayed in the secret realm for several more days. Firstly, there were many relics in Blowing Fire Mountain, which were obviously traces left by humans, and Shirona was very interested in this; secondly, Windy had just woken up, and Chen Xi wanted Windy and Catmi to reunite for a while. After all, Catmi would not be back for at least a few months.
"Thank you for your hard work. You can go home for the New Year and leave the rest of the work to the researchers."
Shirona followed behind Chen Xi, but she was not as happy as Chen Xi. After all, after completing this mission, she had to go back to Sinnoh to handle work, and she would not be able to fish for a few days.
Hearing what Sirona said, Chen Xi turned around and looked at her with a smile.
"There's one more thing before we go back!"
"What?" Sirona tilted her head.
"I promised you that I would take you to eat the delicacies of Guizhou Province!"
……
“Is this the Guizhou cuisine you mentioned?”
Shirona was brought to a small shop by Chen Xi. People around her were staring at the two of them, and many were taking pictures with their mobile phones.
There was no way. Shirona's long golden hair that fell to her calves was too eye-catching and recognizable. The mask and sunglasses were just a psychological comfort. Chen Xi had learned his lesson. Shirona couldn't stop him, but he could. The baseball cap, sunglasses and mask, the three-piece celebrity suit covered Chen Xi's face tightly.
"Yes." Chen Xi brought Sirona to the front desk, "Boss, I want a private room."
The receptionist was a girl of about sixteen or seventeen. She was obviously the boss's daughter or some other junior who came to help out during the holidays. Small shops like this generally don't hire people and are usually run by a couple. During holidays, they would ask the juniors to help out. The girl didn't seem to hear what Chen Xi said, and her eyes were fixed on Shirona.
There was a Bulbasaur lying at the girl's feet. Seeing its dazed owner, it was afraid that she would be scolded, so it stretched out its vines and tugged at the corner of the girl's clothes.
"Danai!"
Chen Xi also stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the girl.
"Beautiful lady, can you hear me?"
Seeing a big hand waving in front of her and Bulbasaur pulling at her clothes at her feet, the girl came to her senses and looked at Chen Xi with a slightly red face.
"Ah! Sorry, I was distracted just now. What did you just say?"
"I said, we need a private room."
"Well, please, please go upstairs."
The girl hurriedly led the two men up the stairs and brought them into a private room.
After entering the room, Shirona took off the useless sunglasses and mask, and Chen Xi also took off his mask, hat and sunglasses.
The girl's eyes widened when she saw Sirona's appearance. Although she had guessed it was her, it was still different from seeing it with her own eyes. She also knew the person next to her, the popular anchor in the battle zone of the small broken station, the legendary Chenxi teacher with the strength of a champion. The girl also planned to leave.
"Here is the menu. Take a look and see what you need." The girl handed the menu to Chen Xi.
"You are the guest, so you order first." Chen Xi handed the menu to Sirona again.
Sirona has learned some Chinese. It's not that good, but she has no problem with normal daily conversation, so she can understand the menu. Besides, the menu of the hot pot is not like the dishes in other big hotels, with fancy names, which are just the names of the ingredients.
Shirona quickly ordered the dishes and handed the menu to Chen Xi. Chen Xi took a look at it, recalled Shirona's appetite in the past few days, added two more servings of beef and potatoes, and handed the menu back to the girl. After taking the menu, the girl left the private room.
"Is the grill pan similar to teppanyaki?"
Shirona recalled that the people outside were eating the food on the edge of the pot, and thought it should be the same as teppanyaki, but the grooves in the middle of the pots were still frying something...
"Of course it's different..."
Chen Xi was halfway through his words when the girl came in with an iron pan and a small pot of oil, followed by Bulbasaur, which stretched out two vines and carried a large plate with the ingredients ordered by Chen Xi and his friends on it.
The girl placed the pot on their small stove, lit the fire, poured some oil into the pot, and Bulbasaur placed the plate on the table.
"Please, please enjoy your meal."
The girl took a step back, bowed slightly to the two of them, and ran out with Bulbasaur.
"Look at you, you make others so nervous."
It wasn't the first day they knew each other. After spending a few days together, the two had become quite familiar with each other, and Chen Xi also started to joke around.
"Who knows if it's you who made them nervous? After all, you are also the famous Teacher Chenxi."
Shirona knew that Chen Xi was joking, so she started teasing him instead.
"How can I compete with you? The oil will take a while to heat up. Let's go make the sauce first."
Chen Xi stopped there and pulled Shirona to prepare the sauce.
After a while, two bowls of sauce were placed on the table. The one in Chen Xi's bowl was full of the characteristics of southwestern China, with heavy oil and spicy taste, and filled with green onions, coriander and watercress in the bright red; in contrast, the one in Shirona's bowl was much lighter, with only a little bit of chili added, and most of it was sesame paste, with no green onions or watercress at all.
"You don't eat Houttuynia cordata either?"
"Don't eat!"
When Shirona thought about the small piece of Houttuynia cordata that she had secretly picked up and tried just now, her face changed. The taste... was indescribable.
"Well, it seems that you outsiders cannot get the blessing of the God of Folding Ears."
Chen Xi shrugged his shoulders. Seeing that the oil in the pot was already hot, he scooped a little bit with an iron spoon and poured it into his own sauce bowl. He also glanced at Shirona, asking her if she wanted it. Shirona shook her head.
A sizzling sound came from the bowl, along with the aroma of chili, which made people drool.
Then Chen Xi put the ingredients into the oil pan in batches and fried them. He took out the cooked ones and put them beside the pan. Seeing this, Shirona finally understood how to eat the fried pot.
"Eat it and try the specialties of our Guizhou Province."
Shirona picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, dipped some of the sauce in her bowl and put it into her mouth. It tasted good. Although it was not as delicious as the food Chen Xi made in the past few days, it was also full of characteristics and something she had never tried before.
Watching Shirona eating, Chen Xi also picked up a piece of potato, put it in his own bowl, coated it with red peppers, and then put it in his mouth.
Um~Xuan!
When you come to Guizhou Province, you have to eat potatoes. Do you know what the Potato Country is?
The two of them took turns eating with their chopsticks, and the food in the pot quickly decreased. After a while, Chen Xi put in another pot.
Shirona looked at the sauce in Chen Xi's bowl, then looked at the sauce in her own bowl, and always felt that hers was not as fragrant as his.
"Can you give me some of your sauce?"
Looking at Shirona's expectant eyes, Chen Xi still gave in. Who could stand seeing a cold and arrogant queen champion showing such an expression in front of her?
However, as a married man, Chen Xi certainly couldn't let Shirona eat from his bowl, so he prepared another bowl for Shirona.
I don’t know if it’s a matter of taste or if Chen Xi’s cooking skills are so proficient that he can also use the sauce on the seasoning, but Shirona obviously ate it more happily than before. Even though it was so spicy that her face turned red, she still ate one bite after another. She even ate the zheergen that she thought was extremely unpalatable just now.
As for the bowl of sauce that Shirona had just prepared, she had already thrown it to the other end of the table.
