Lin Mo told Shen Yihan the specific situation of the fourth brother in detail, then cursed and hung up the video call.
She turned around and went out to call the chef uncle in.
Chef Li is a person who pursues food and cherishes it very much.
He had been thinking outside for a long time. At this moment, he looked at Lin Mo and said, "Well, Miss Lin, I'll cook this meal. I'll deliberately make it taste different from my usual ones, and then say it's made by you. I promise I won't let it slip!"
Lin Mo frowned, "How can this work? Xie Guanyan just went up to apply medicine. He should come down soon. Won't this reveal the secret?"
Chef Li shook his head, "Sir has been going to take a shower and wash his hair as soon as he comes back from work every day recently. It takes a while. I've prepared all the dishes, very quickly."
"You stand at the door and watch. As soon as you hear movement upstairs, I'll pass you the spoon! I guarantee it's foolproof!"
For Xie Guanyan's personal safety, Lin Mo thought for a few seconds and nodded, "Okay, thank you!"
Chef Li also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's a piece of cake."
Lin Mo rarely lies. Now she stands at the kitchen door with her ears pricked up, and her heart beats very fast.
It feels like cheating in an exam.
Twenty minutes later.
Heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
Lin Mo almost jumped up, "Here we go! Here we go! Level one alert!"
Chef Li was flipping the last dish. He was startled and almost overturned the pot.
The mentality of a chef who has been working for decades almost collapsed.
"Okay, okay, come here, take the spatula, just shovel it a few times and it's ready to come out of the pot. Just sprinkle this scallion when it comes out of the pot!"
It was the first time Chef Li lied to his boss, and it was false to say he wasn't nervous.
Xie Guanyan changed into clean clothes, dried his hair, and came down the stairs.
His eyes first fell on the green sofa in the living room.
He didn't see the girl huddled there as usual, and was slightly surprised.
Did she go to her room?
The housekeeper saw him and smiled, "Sir, Miss Lin is in the kitchen."
Xie Guanyan's handsome eyebrows frowned slightly.
"What is she doing in the kitchen?"
When he walked to the kitchen door, he saw the beautiful girl wearing a black apron.
It was the apron he usually wore.
The black belt was tied around her slender waist, making her look even more slender and delicate.
At this moment, she was holding a spatula in her white hand and stirring the dish in the pot.
Xie Guanyan strode over with his long legs, "Lin Mo, why are you cooking? Where's the chef?"
As he spoke, he directly took the spatula from her hand and said in a warm voice, "Let me do it."
Lin Mo's heart hung in her throat the moment Xie Guanyan approached.
His fingertips accidentally touched hers, like an electric current, and a numb feeling spread all over her body.
Although the smell in the kitchen was very strong, at this moment, she could only smell the faint cold fragrance on the man.
Chef Li quickly smiled and said, "Sir, these dishes are all made by Miss Lin herself. She studied with me all afternoon today and said she wanted to give you a surprise."
Xie Guanyan's fingers holding the spatula paused. His warm eyes fell on the girl's face, and his eyes were full of excitement and stickiness.
Lin Mo's face turned red like a monkey's butt under his gaze, "Yes, I want to give you a surprise."
"What's the matter?" Xie Guanyan's voice tried hard to stay gentle.
Shanshan has something to ask him for help!
Great, he's still useful to her.
Unexpectedly, she was seen through so easily. Lin Mo's long and thick eyelashes trembled nonstop, "It's just a small matter. Let's talk about it during dinner."
Three dishes and one soup were served on the table, still steaming.
It can be said to be colorful, fragrant and delicious.
Lin Mo was extremely guilty and didn't dare to look into Xie Guanyan's eyes at all.
Xie Guanyan picked up a chopstick of spicy shredded potatoes and put it in his mouth. His eyebrows raised slightly, "What do you need my help with, Lin Mo?"
This wasn't her cooking skill.
But it was already very good that she was willing to take the trouble to lie to him.
Lin Mo silently took a few deep breaths to suppress her guilt, smiled and said, "Well, my fourth brother used to live in the slum, but now he suddenly moved. I think he should still be in the slum. I can't find him. I want to ask if you have any way to find him."
She felt very guilty, but the food was really fragrant.
Lin Mo finally picked up the chopsticks and picked up a chopstick of steamed fish.
The fish meat was soft, tender and fresh. Lin Mo gave Chef Li a thumbs up in her heart.
"No problem, what's your fourth brother's name?"
Lin Mo was a little surprised that Xie Guanyan agreed so easily, and her hanging heart relaxed a little.
"His name is Ji An. This fish is delicious, you eat more!"
She picked up a chopstick of fish and put it into Xie Guanyan's bowl.
Xie Guanyan stared at the bowl for a few seconds.
Shanshan picked up food for him, so happy!
At this time, the servants hadn't finished work yet. When they saw this scene, they all frowned.
Sir is a clean freak, he definitely won't eat food picked by others!
The next second, they saw Xie Guanyan pick up that piece of fish and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly.
Servants: "..."
Cleanliness is your lie!
After dinner, Xie Guanyan made a phone call, then said to Lin Mo, "They are checking the entire slum over there. They will tell me when there is news."
The matter was solved so easily that she didn't even really cook for him.
Lin Mo nestled on the sofa, blinked her eyes, "Thank you, Lao Xie!"
Xie Guanyan reached out to touch her fluffy head but restrained himself. He pushed his glasses with one hand and smiled gently, "I also thank you for the thought you put into me today, Classmate Lin."
After taking a shower and lying in bed, Lin Mo received a WeChat message from the Jingyuan Buddha.
[Did Mr. Xie take the bait?]
[No, did Mr. Xie agree to help?]
Lin Mo: [He already helped. He's really a good person!]
Jingyuan Buddha: [Should he not be admitted to the hospital tonight?]
Lin Mo: [...It's not made by me, it's made by the chef, pretending to be made by me.]
Jingyuan Buddha: [Then I can rest assured!]
Lin Mo: [...You little boy, keep an eye out when you sleep at night!]
Turning off her phone, Lin Mo looked at the ceiling and felt that she was a little sorry for Xie Guanyan.
He even thanked her for the meal, but it wasn't made by her.
After turning off the light, Lin Mo tossed and turned in bed for a long time and couldn't fall asleep.
Today, in order to pretend that the dishes were made by her, a novice, the chef made the dishes a little salty.
Lin Mo was a little thirsty. She groped in the dark and got up from the bed.
She walked to the door and opened it.
Suddenly, she saw a tall figure standing at her room door in the darkness.
