Du Lin took the bun and took a bite. The steaming bun was a little hot, but the delicious taste of the meat bun was enough to make Du Lin forget the pain on his lips.
The rich meaty aroma instantly fills the entire mouth. The chopped meat and small pieces of dried bamboo shoots mixed together make the taste rich but not greasy.
Du Lin didn't bother to express his feelings and swallowed quickly in one mouthful or two.
In just a blink of an eye, the fist-sized meat bun was eaten by Du Lin.
Du Lin was still not satisfied, and the lingering fragrance in his mouth made him look at the steamer in the middle of the table again.
This change in look was seen by everyone, and the Donghuang ship girls couldn't help but chuckle.
Du Lin was very embarrassed. As a commander, he behaved like a starving person who had been hungry for several days.
"Commander, don't be embarrassed." Yixian's slender jade fingers handed another bun to Du Lin:
"We are all family, there is nothing to be shy about. Come, there are still a lot of buns for today."
Yixian turned his head and looked at the others present:
"Does everyone agree?"
The answer is of course "yes". Even Pinghai, who likes to eat steamed buns, took the initiative to offer his own.
Du Lin was quite touched. Pinghai actually gave his buns to him. This was enough to explain everything.
Ding'an was quite envious. Except for Changchun and Fushun, everyone present had contributed to the preparation of today's dinner, but she did nothing.
There's no way. Ding'an is not good at cooking and has no relevant experience.
Compared with these Ding'an is better at business and investment.
But now she has no chance to display this ability in the port area.
Looking at Du Lin who was eating with hearty mouthfuls and a happy look on his face, Ding'an held his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought.
I...shouldn't I also learn something about cooking?
This way, I can get praise from the commander like Yixian and the others.
Dinner was held in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Everyone ate and talked. Du Lin talked about some of his experiences when he was out, which made Fushun and the others' eyes sparkle.
Yixian rarely interrupted during the whole process. She just looked at Du Lin with a smile and gentle eyes.
"Yixian, let's open a bar today." Ding'an suddenly thought of something:
"I remember there are two more jars in the storeroom."
Normally, Yixian and Ding'an would have a drink or two, but now that Du Lin's arrival has made the atmosphere so hot, Ding'an decided to strike while the iron is hot.
"Drinking..." Yixian hesitated for a moment, then looked at Du Lin:
"Commander, do you think this is ok?"
"Of course." How could Du Lin, who was in high spirits, refuse this proposal?
"Then it's settled!"
Ding'an got up and went to the warehouse, and soon came back with a jar of wine.
He broke the clay seal and filled the Ding'an porcelain bowls for Du Lin and Yi Xian.
"This is..." Du Lin sniffed and smelled a unique aroma of wine:
“Is this rice wine?”
The wine in the bowl in front of him was yellow-brown in color, which was completely different from the vodka that the drunkards in the Northern League drank.
"Yes~" Yixian smiled and pushed the porcelain bowl in front of Du Lin:
"Don't worry, Commander. This wine is refreshing and tastes great. It's not easy to get drunk."
Du Lin didn't drink much, and the few times he did was only for social occasions or when he was forced to drink by the drunkards of the Northern League.
It was the first time for him to drink rice wine.
"Then I'm welcome."
Under the gaze of Ding'an and Yixian, Du Lin picked up the porcelain bowl and took a sip.
"Hmm...it's definitely different."
Du Lin's eyes lit up. The rice wine seemed to have been chilled, and something else seemed to have been added to it, so it tasted faintly like lemon.
It was just as Yixian said, drinking the rice wine made Du Lin feel refreshed all over, and left a long aftertaste in his mouth.
Yixian nodded slightly:
"... Actually, warm rice wine also has a unique flavor, but now the weather is getting hotter, so I choose to chill it."
Next, Du Lin, Yixian and Ding'an raised their porcelain bowls and drank. Different from Beilian's "stock up stock up" drinking method, Yixian and Ding'an drank in small sips, looking very elegant.
Du Lin followed suit and also felt extremely calm inside.
Fushun and others cannot drink alcohol, they can only drink herbal tea.
Fushun secretly dipped the chopsticks into the wine jar, but gave up the idea before he put it into his mouth under Anshan's close watch.
When you drink, you are not just drinking the wine, you are also enjoying the atmosphere.
There is no doubt that the atmosphere of drinking with Yixian and others is excellent, which makes Du Lin's mood high.
Even if the alcohol is low in strength, you will still get drunk.
What's more, Du Lin is still a rookie in this area.
Gradually, the dinner came to an end.
Du Lin fell asleep at his desk with a red face, Yixian's face was also red and he looked drunk, only Ding'an was just slightly tipsy.
"I didn't expect the commander to get drunk so easily." Ding An stepped forward, bent over and looked at Du Lin:
"Yixian, let the commander stay here tonight."
"Eh?"
The drunk Yixian sobered up instantly.
Volume 66: Chapter : Living in the same room, Yixian's choice
In a mansion deep in the Donghuang Gardens, there is a boudoir that no outsiders ever set foot in on weekdays. This is where Du Lin will stay tonight.
Yixian and Ding'an supported Du Lin on both sides as he entered the room.
"Well... I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk..."
Du Lin was mumbling in a daze, trying to break free from the two men's hands.
"Commander, people who say that are usually drunk."
Ding'an responded to Du Lin with a smile, and Yixian next to him also chuckled.
The two men laid Du Lin on the bed. At this time, a few little ones also poked their heads out of the door and looked into the room.
"Is the Commander staying here tonight?"
"That's right." Ding'an clapped his hands:
"The commander is drunk. It's too dangerous to let him go back by himself."
"But..." Anshan blinked his eyes, with a simple look on his face:
"I can escort the commander back to his quarters!"
"That's right, Fushun can also accompany you!" Fushun raised his hand high:
"Hehe, no matter what monsters we encounter along the way, the great hero Fushun can easily deal with them!"
"Hmm..." Changchun scratched his head:
"Then I'll go with you."
The three little ones formed an escort team and vowed to send Du Lin back safely.
Seeing this, Shuang Hai was also eager to try and wanted to join in.
"Oh, I'll be troubled if you do this..." Ding An rubbed his brows lightly, then stepped forward and gently patted the shoulders of the little guys:
"Well, it's getting late, good kids, it's time to go back to bed."
It was already late at night and looking at the clock on the wall it was almost midnight.
After the war, the Donghuang ship girls all went to bed early, and few of them stayed up until now.
"Eh--"
The Donghuang members who were half-forcefully pushed out by Ding'an looked reluctantly at Du Lin lying on the bed in the room.
"We also want to sleep with the Commander."
"Too cunning, only Sister Yixian is alone..."
The room where Du Lin was located was exactly Yixian's boudoir.
When Ding'an left the room, he turned around and blinked at Yixian, saying with a half-smile:
"Then Yixian, Commander, I'll trouble you~"
The children's complaints before they left and Ding'an's meaningful words made Yixian blush.
"Ding'an is really... So this is what she was planning..."
Yixian finally understood Ding'an's intention.
This Donghuang companion who had a keen eye for investment actually wanted to let himself and the commander stay in the same room alone.
Based on Yixian's understanding of Ding'an, she probably had anticipated this result when she proposed drinking.
"Ugh......"
Yixian sighed softly. How could she hide her feelings for the commander from the eyes of her companions who she spent every day with?
But...this method is too extreme.
Yixian came back to her senses and looked at the figure on the bed, her heart pounding.
"what......"
Yixian put his hand on his chest and found that his heart was beating frighteningly loud.
How could she still be drunk at this time? It had long been diluted by the tension at the moment.
Yixian walked to the bed, bent down and tucked her hair behind her ears:
"Commander? Are you...still awake?"
Yixian's voice was very gentle. She was clearly calling but seemed to be trying to avoid waking Du Lin.
Du Lin still had his eyes closed and his breathing was steady and long.
This is a sign of deep sleep.
This was the first time Yixian saw Du Lin sleeping.
Yixian stared at the familiar face infatuatedly, intoxicated by the beauty of the moment, but also worried that Du Lin would suddenly open his eyes.
If that were the case, she would look really embarrassing now.
Biting her cherry lips lightly, Yixian stretched out her slender jade fingers and touched Du Lin's cheek like a breeze.
Du Lin, who fell asleep drunk, had a very high body temperature, especially his face. The scorching heat passed through his fingertips and into the depths of Yixian's heart, stirring her already confused heartstrings and causing ripples.
After a while, Yixian reluctantly withdrew his hand.
She went to get a basin of cool water, returned to the bed, and gently wiped Du Lin's cheek with a wet towel.
The cool and gentle wipe had an immediate effect, and the sleeping Du Lin's brows became more relaxed.
Yixian did not wake Du Lin up, but patiently and gently wiped Du Lin in his own way.
After doing all this, Yixian returned to the bed again.
At this moment she had other choices.
There are other vacant rooms in the Donghuang gardens. If things really don't work out, Yixian can always stay with his other companions for the night.
