As soon as Luo Ting finished speaking, Zhuo Yumo could roughly guess what it was, but he didn't speak, just quietly listening to Luo Ting's continuation.

"I dreamed that I was locked in a cage, and there was a fire outside the cage, and no one came to rescue me. I had to find a way to open the cage by myself."

Luo Ting's tone was very calm, which was quite different from the panic and helplessness when he fell into a nightmare last night.

When Zhuo Yumo heard the words "cage" and "fire", he couldn't help but his heart shuddered, his eyes were surprised and worried, staring at Luo Ting as if he was asking whether this had something to do with Zhong Mu's childhood experience.

"Zhong Mu is not the only child in the family, he also has an older brother."

"He still has an older brother?" Zhuo Yumo was taken aback when he heard that.He had never heard Zhong Mu mention this elder brother. He always thought that Zhong Mu was the only child in his family - didn't the media always say that Zhong Mu was Jun Guang's sole heir?Why didn't anyone mention Zhong Mu's brother at all?

"Where is his brother now?

Why did Zhong Mu never mention it to me?

..." When he asked this sentence, Zhuo Yumo already had some ominous premonition in his heart. Since Zhong Mu didn't mention it, and the media deliberately blurted it out with spring and autumn brushwork, there must be something strange about it.

"His brother is not in the country now." Luo Ting said and pointed his finger, "He has some mental problems and was sent abroad to recuperate."

"Did Zhong Mu send it out?" Zhuo Yumo frowned more and more as he listened.Zhong Mu has a dual personality, and Zhong Mu's elder brother also has mental problems. Is this a family inheritance or some other reason?

Luo Ting shook his head: "It happened before Zhong Mu lost his memory, so Zhong Mu doesn't remember that he still has this brother at all, and the people around him probably won't deliberately mention this matter."

Speaking of this, Zhuo Yumo already had his own guess in mind.But he couldn't be sure, so he had to be patient, enduring the anxiety and heartache in his heart and quietly listening to Luo Ting's continuation.

"Zhong Mu's brother is six years older than Zhong Mu. They were not born to the same mother. Zhong Mu's mother is actually his brother's stepmother. His brother's mother seems to have passed away very early, but the cause of death—I don't know. "Luo Ting paused at this point, his eyes suddenly turned dark, like a leopard seeing a bloody prey approaching, he closed his eyes for a while, and then continued after suppressing the excitement, "When Zhong Mu was 12 years old, his mother also passed away. The doctor diagnosed him as a sudden death caused by a heart attack. At that time, his brother had already been sent abroad. For so many years, he should be living on a trust fund. He's so small, he doesn't dare to say anything. So his..."

Luo Ting suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and remained silent for a long time.Zhuo Yumo, who was sitting upright, listening and thinking, was attracted by this too long silence, turned his head, and saw Luo Ting also frowning tightly, looking extremely confused.The other party raised his eyes and looked this way, the moment the two looked at each other, Zhuo Yumo suddenly realized - this is not Luo Ting but Zhong Mu!

Zhong Mu appeared when Luo Ting said the most important thing, and directly cut off what Luo Ting said!

Zhuo Yumo remembered that Zhong Mu said before that even though his body was taken over by Luo Ting now, he still had some vague consciousness, and he could see everything that was happening around him through Luo Ting's perspective.He is almost certain now that Zhong Mu absolutely does not want Luo Ting to tell those things about his childhood.

But in fact, through what Luo Ting said, combined with what Zhong Mu and Dr. Bai said before, Zhuo Yumo can barely piece together a rough truth.Even though many details are still unclear, the root cause of Zhong Mu's becoming like this is already obvious.

This must have something to do with Zhong Mu's father.The man lost his two wives, the elder son suffered from mental problems, and the younger son had a split personality. This can no longer be called misfortune, but evil.

Sighing, Zhuo Yumo pulled Zhong Mu over and gave him a hug without words.

"Tired?" He put his chin on Zhong Mu's shoulder and asked softly with his eyes closed.

Zhong Mu also seemed to know why Zhuo Yumo suddenly hugged him. Facing this weird question, he just responded with two words gently: "It's okay."

*******

After this interrupted conversation, Zhuo Yumo never took the initiative to inquire about Zhong Mu's past, and they agreed not to mention it again.But after Luo Ting's nightmare, Zhong Mu, who usually sleeps peacefully at night, seems to have started to have a nightmare. Strangely, the content of his nightmare was also a cage and fire. He said that he was locked in a cage, and the cage was placed in a large building. In the scary house, smoke billowed out of the window, and there was no one there.

"But in the dream, I always feel that someone will appear, and I am very sure that someone will pass by the window." After the nightmare, Zhong Mu was very tired, but when he said this, his eyes were extremely firm, "It seems that I have been waiting for you in the cage. That person, if that person appears, I will definitely destroy the cage and smash the glass to meet him."

These words made Zhuo Yumo feel inexplicable, and he himself felt unreasonable.

He stayed with Zhong Mu at home while practicing cooking for two more days. Jian Ru called and said that the second episode of "Gold Medal Star Chef" is going to be recorded on location. The seasoning is the secret weapon. These three seasonings can be ready-made products or homemade.

Zhong Mu, who had been depressed for two days, heard that he needed to prepare seasonings, and finally got rid of his previous lethargy. He spent a whole day researching and developing three very unique sauces for Zhuo Yumo.

On the day of the recording, it was still Jian Ru who drove to pick up the boss and his wife. Naturally, this time, she also received cookies, and at the same time, she also received three sauces developed and produced by the boss herself.Jian Ru tasted it curiously, thinking all the way how to persuade the boss to develop in the food industry.

The recording location of this program is in a small town outside the city.This small town has a very long history. Both the houses and other buildings in the town have a history of hundreds of years, and have always retained a long-standing ancient charm.

The day before the departure, Zhuo Yumo and Zhong Mu received a notice from the program team. The notice stated that the theme of the location recording was the ancient town wedding banquet, and guests from all groups were required to make preparations in advance.At the destination, Zhuo Yumo got out of the car and saw the rows of houses with white walls and black tiles in front of him, and couldn't help letting out a soft "wow".

This time, the show is a group match. The nine pairs of guests are divided into three groups by lottery, and each group will send a captain to draw lots to choose today's wedding banquet dishes.In order to match the custom of eating open-air banquets for weddings in small towns, the program team specially set up a simple kitchen outside.

After the first round of lottery, Zhuo Yumo was exceptionally lucky to be in a group with idols Bai Jing and his wife. At the same time, their star partners Wang Yan and his wife, who also performed very well in the previous round, were also in a group with them.Wang Yan and her husband Zhu Xiao are an actor and a singer. They are older than Bai Jing. Both of them are seniors with many awards. When they got married, they made a sensation in the whole country. The major media followed and reported for nearly half a month. .In the past two years, they have gradually faded out of the showbiz. This time, they don't know why they suddenly accepted this reality show.

As juniors, Zhuo Yumo and Bai Jing naturally recommended Wang Yan and his wife to be the team leader, and Wang Yan was not polite, and took the initiative to take over the team leader's job.After the second round of lottery, the dishes for the wedding banquet have also been determined. There are four cold dishes, eight hot dishes, two soups and two main courses, a total of sixteen dishes, all of which need to be completed within three hours from preparation to final serving. And cold dishes have to be served half an hour in advance.

After receiving the menu, Wang Yan immediately divided the tasks. During the preparatory work, Zhuo Yumo and Bai Jing's wife Lu Yidan were in charge of washing the vegetables, Zhu Xiao and Bai Jing were in charge of changing the knives for killing fish and chickens and ducks, and cooking Better yet, she and Zhong Mu are in charge of making the marinade.

Zhuo Yumo was a little worried about Zhong Mu when they were going to work separately.Fortunately, he saw that Wang Yan and Zhong Mu each set up a pot. During the preparation stage, the two of them basically did their own thing. Occasionally, they exchanged the recipe of the marinade, so he felt relieved.

The wedding banquet is still mainly meat dishes, but there are many vegetarian dishes, ranging from vegetables to soy products.Zhuo Yumo was ashamed to make Lu Yidan troublesome, he was the one who took the lead when picking up the vegetables, and Lu Yidan was very careful, washing the vegetables very carefully, the two of them cooperated quite tacitly.

Working with the idol's lover, Zhuo Yumo was still a little nervous, plus there might be a camera approaching with a camera on his shoulders, which made him embarrassed to talk to Mrs. Bai.The two cooperated quietly for a while, and gradually, Zhuo Yumo found that Lu Yidan seemed to be in a bad state, his complexion was very bad, and he looked very uncomfortable.

"Miss Itami, is there something wrong with you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yidan glanced at Zhuo Yumo, smiled politely but weakly, and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.But the more Zhuo Yumo looked at her, the more he felt that she was not good enough, so he sneaked up to Bai Jing and told him that she seemed to be in a bad state.As soon as Bai Jing heard this, he immediately put down the kitchen knife in his hand, wiped his hands and rushed to Lu Yidan's side, supported her and walked to the shade beside her.When they walked past Zhuo Yumo, Zhuo Yumo didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that Mrs. Bai had just glared at him.

Lu Yidan's unexpected departure put their group at a disadvantage.There was still beef tendon in Zhong Mu's pot. Seeing that Zhuo Yumo was struggling with all kinds of side dishes by himself, he went over to help.

Originally there was only one person left, Zhuo Yumo was still a little lonely, but when his lover came over, he immediately cheered up, and asked Zhong Mu to inspect the minced onions he had just cut, triumphantly saying that he had completely mastered all the onions. The key to diced onions.The two stood together and prepared while talking, and the speed was actually faster than when Zhuo Yumo and Lu Yidan cooperated just now.

Probably because I heard that this time it was recorded on location, Zhong Mu was so nervous that he drank a lot of water when he came. After the show started, he kept running to the bathroom sadly.

"Go quickly, don't drink water blindly next time." Zhuo Yumo was struggling to hold back his laughter, his hands were stained with all kinds of vegetable waste, so he could only twist his hips and bump into her husband quietly.

It was the first time Zhong Mu saw Yu Mo making such a flirtatious gesture, he couldn't help but blushed, and went to the bathroom with his head down.The conditions in the small town here are naturally not as good as in the urban area. Every time he goes there with a bad face and returns with a bad face, he almost wants to squeeze his bladder with his bare hands.

After washing his hands with a stinky face, he just stepped out of the bathroom when he heard someone outside suddenly calling Zhuo Yumo's name.He froze for a moment, poked out half of his head, and found that Bai Jing was hiding here and calling someone, because his back was facing this side, so he didn't see him.

Zhong Mu wondered, who would mention his family, Yumo, on the phone.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Bai Jing say again: "Let's forget about him. I heard that he was also the one in "Laughing West Wind". Isn't it obvious that the resource was obtained by the 'husband'? Brother Xu, I really beg you , this kind of disgusting thing who can marry a man by any means for the sake of superiority, let's not be an example, shall we?"
