Chapter 1238 - 1235: Three Beauties at Home—Just Thinking About It Gives Me a Headache
Wang Yanran teased, "Are you afraid of wasting your time?"
After all, heading to the barbecue shop in the Southern District takes more than one or two hours, then eating?
Cough cough cough.
So?
Luofeng and Bai Ningbing’s evening time got seriously squeezed?
"I’m not working today!" Luofeng pretended not to understand.
Wang Yanran rolled her eyes at Luofeng.
From Jingzhou University, it’s more than eighty kilometers away, usually taking over an hour.
But now it’s peak time.
Around eight o’clock, they finally arrived here.
Under Shen Na’s directions, Luofeng arrived at Wang Sanlang’s seafood barbecue stall.
After parking the car, the four of them entered the shop.
Just as they came in,
Luofeng caught the smell of grilled oysters.
They were garlic grilled oysters, smelled pretty good, seems like Shen Na chose the right place.
Shen Na handed the menu on the table to Luofeng, signaling him to order.
This gesture had a bit of subtlety.
Luofeng calmly passed the menu to Bai Ningbing, saying, "Baby, see what you want to eat?"
Shen Na watched Luofeng’s actions and said simply, "This shop has been open for many years, since I was in elementary school, but back then it wasn’t here."
Luofeng and Bai Ningbing looked through the menu together, and this shop was indeed good value.
Grilled oysters were only five yuan each.
And it stated they were large oysters.
This price is indeed quite good for a big city.
Luofeng recalled that in the Sichuan-Chongqing area, such large oysters would definitely cost more than eight yuan.
The grilled scallops here were also cheap, similarly five yuan each.
The razor clams here were relatively more expensive, needing eight yuan.
The freshly grilled octopus was priced at 38 yuan per half kilogram, sold directly by weight? That’s quite bold.
Luofeng also saw Boston lobster, similarly priced by weight.
The price was 165 yuan.
The flavors included charcoal grilled, cheese, garlic.
But what’s with the durian flavor?
Grilling durian over charcoal?
But Bai Ningbing didn’t choose the durian flavor.
Nor did anyone else in the restaurant.
Otherwise, what if there’s an outbreak of biochemical weapons later?
While the three of them were discussing what other dishes to order, Luofeng received a call from Long Jianfeng.
He’s also a professor at Capital City Institute of Technology.
After Professor Qian handled the matter concerning the cypress in Qili Bay, he handed it over to Long Jianfeng to continue the research and cultivation.
Though it might still fail.
But they’re unlikely to easily give up.
"Boss Luo, are you in Shanghai?"
"I’m not, I’m here in Jingzhou, what’s up?"
"Well, after dinner tonight, I was taking a walk outside, walking the dog, and then discovered a peach orchard to the east!" Professor Long said.
"Huh? To the east? That peach orchard should be my family’s!" Luofeng said, "But it’s been abandoned for many years, and they’re all wild peaches. If you want to eat, you can pick them?"
You can pick them?
With those words spoken.
Then Luofeng surely doesn’t know what’s going on over there, alright?
That’s a very shrewd statement.
After all, knowing implies recognizing the treasures, yet you allow them to be picked?
"But the taste isn’t so good! After all, they’re wild peaches." Luofeng continued to feign ignorance.
Long Jianfeng exclaimed, "That peach orchard is actually yours?"
"Yes, it was planted by my grandfather and left to my father, but after Mei Company was established, we hardly manage it anymore," Luofeng said.
"By the way, Professor Long, is there anything up? Has there been any progress with the cypress tree?" Luofeng asked again.
"Not really, I want to ask about the peach orchard!" Long Jianfeng said.
"What about the peach orchard? If you want to use that land, you can completely cut down all the trees!" Luofeng said.
Oh boy.
These words really give a sense as if there’s a crime scene, one alibi after another comes into sight?
I don’t know what peculiarities the peach trees have.
On one hand telling you to pick?
On the other hand telling you to chop?
"...." Long Jianfeng was speechless, "No chopping allowed!"
"Oh?" Luofeng was puzzled.
"While we were walking the dog over there, found that this land was somewhat deserted, so let the dogs relieve themselves over there, yet didn’t expect the dog to eat peach resin, as per normal circumstances, dogs don’t eat peach resin! Especially natural peach resin." Long Jianfeng said.
Luofeng was stunned, "Then professor, are you suggesting there’s something wrong with this peach orchard?"
Luofeng pretended to realize something, "Wait, could it be related to the cypress tree attracting snakes somehow, did the peach trees mutate too?"
"This is not clear yet, but it is odd." Long Jianfeng said.
"Then professor, study the peach resin immediately, and protect that area." Luofeng said.
"Alright, I will handle it!" Long Jianfeng nodded.
"There’s one more thing!"
"What is it?" Long Jianfeng asked.
"Besides studying the peach resin, you might also want to research the entire flora of Qili Bay, thoroughly investigate from top to bottom to see if such situations occur throughout, initially the cypress was an accident, and if a second accident happens, then one must consider the whole Qili Bay." Luofeng said.
"Makes sense, though I think the possibility is low, positive mutation probability is very low, unlikely for an entire area like this, unless in movies, where a meteor lands, resulting in the whole area changing." Long Jianfeng laughed, "But that’s just the movies!"
"I don’t have much hope, just hoping for no oversight! Wouldn’t it be a pity?" Luofeng said.
"Yeah, makes sense!" Long Professor nodded.
After they finished talking.
Luofeng put down the phone, looking at the table.
Everyone was curiously watching Luofeng.
Luofeng briefly explained.
After hearing, Bai Ningbing said with interest, "When I go back to Shanghai, will you take me there to have a look?"
"No problem!" Luofeng nodded.
Shen Na mentioned again, "Ningbing, I’m planning to go to Shanghai to hang out during summer vacation!"
"Sure, you’re very welcome, you can stay at my place, my house is big!" Bai Ningbing said.
Shen Na glanced at Luofeng, then gratefully said, "Thank you, Ningbing. I’ll definitely come and bother you when the time comes!"
Luofeng sighed quietly in his heart.
This Iron Silly Bai Ningbing doesn’t realize Shen Na’s problem?
Also, Shen Na going to Bai Ningbing’s house? Aren’t they going to be three beauties then?
Just thinking about it gives Luofeng a bit of a headache.
As the saying goes, three women make a drama, Bai Ningbing, Shen Na, and Wang Yanran, at one point discussing final exams, at another talking about shopping tomorrow.
Luofeng occasionally chimed in.
Soon, grilled oysters and grilled scallops were served.
Luofeng found the salted razor clams here quite delicious.
Fresh, tender flavor, indeed tasty.
[Ding, the host has tasted a surprisingly delightful dish, rewarded with a random gift package!]
A long-awaited culinary gift package?
Luofeng opened it directly.....
