C9 Love Salmon
"This boy is too arrogant, he really doesn't know his place."
"How could the Han Family have such a son-in-law? What qualifications does he have to show off?"
Because of their high status, many of them were usually flattered by the people around them. Today, Du Jie had truly offended all of them.
Han Ruoxi felt that she couldn't stay here anymore. She said apologetically to Long Qianxian, "I'll be troubling you today. I'll take him back first."
Some of the people beside him did not want to let Du Jie off so easily. There were even some who said, "Just now, you were looking down on the famous international chef. Since he's a guest in China, why don't you take it out so that we can broaden our horizons?"
Du Jie halted his steps, his back facing the crowd. No matter how hard Han Ruqing tried, she just couldn't move him.
This kind of back view shocked the people behind him. It seemed like the provocation had worked. Du Jie calmly turned around and freed himself from the restraints of Han Ruoqing beside him.
He did not think much as he rolled up his sleeves and walked forward. Only when he saw that his son-in-law was about to personally operate it did he surround him. For a moment, other than a few words of discussion, there was no other sound.
"What else is in the freezer?" Du Jie asked the assistant beside him as he rummaged through the freezer.
They worked together with Du Jie until they finally found a piece of salmon in a corner. Judging from its color and texture, the fish was at least two days old. Du Jie asked, "Why didn't you cook it?"
"Chef said that the fish didn't taste good so he abandoned it." A person replied.
Dujie put on his apron. I'll do it today.
At first, Han Ruoqing was still outside the crowd, but she didn't dare take a closer look. Suddenly, she noticed Du Jie's gaze that day, coming out again, Han Ruoqing subconsciously walked forward until she reached the front, very close to Du Jie. When she saw him using a knife to make salmon, Han Ruoqing panicked a little.
His mind was filled with the scene of Dujie cooking that day, including how he perfectly reflected a salmon that was past the deadline, but this was not the case. The production method was different from before, and looking at the reverse, it was more like the way he did it that day.
Sure enough, what Du Jie wanted to do this time was to stew the salmon. He picked out the best ingredients among the fish, and lightly spread the meat on the chopping board, and fed the rare ingredients. Then, he put the spicy spring onion bottom into the pan and put it in the pot.
The other person took the time because he was looking at the heat. Different heat would cause different effects in the pot, so the time on the watch was fake and the experienced observation was the most accurate.
Dujie was naturally sensitive, and he could feel even the tiniest details. From time to time, a little fragrance would tell him how good the fish was.
He suddenly opened his eyes, turned off the fire, and carried the entire stew pot to the table with a towel. Then he made a gesture of invitation, wiping his hands with a white towel and backing away.
Everyone was so curious that they couldn't wait anymore. They quickly surrounded the table. The ones in front were, of course, Han Ruoqing, Long Qianxiang, Yang Hua and a few foreign guests.
Han Ruoxi's moist eyes twitched from time to time. She seemed to guess that Du Jie was imitating her, and how was it different from her own methods. Carrying this question, she slowly touched the lid.
As the lid was lifted, moisture began to rise, and the fog finally dispersed, allowing the salmon to reveal its true appearance.
"Wow!" After clearly seeing the fish, a series of exclamations came from the side.
Looking closely at the fish, it was no longer its original appearance. The sparkling crystal surface was extremely dazzling. A clear mist wrapped around it, giving it a sense of beauty within the fairyland. How was this possible?
Han Ruoqing blankly stared as she unconsciously extended her slender jade-like fingers in an attempt to touch the surface of the fish. It was truly too beautiful.
Long Qianxiang immediately tried to stop her, but he was already in no hurry. When Han Ruoqing came in contact with the meat again, she did not feel the heat. On the contrary, her hand felt really different. There was a trace of cold within the warmth.
After recovering, she discovered that there was a disk below the fish. The moisture there indicated that Du Jie had added dry ice to the process, causing Han Ruoqing's eyes to moisten.
"Why would he make steamed salmon?"
It was simple, because this was one of Han Ruoqing's dishes during the match between Du Jie and Han Ruoqing. The reason why he made this choice was because he had the other party in his heart. He wanted to express his fondness for dishes.
Everyone used their chopsticks to lightly taste the fresh fish. For a moment, everyone was completely immersed in the taste of the fish. They closed their eyes to enjoy this wonderful time.
Only Han Ruoqing was the first one to recover from her tears after tasting the wine. She was wondering in her heart what had happened to her.
After wiping away her tears, she squeezed through the still intoxicated crowd to look for Du Jie. He was no longer there.
Han Ruoqing wasn't in the mood to bid farewell to the crowd. She needed to see Du Jie immediately, but before she left the main door, she heard a foreign chef comment from behind her, "When we were overseas, I only felt this feeling once. It's Mr. Woodpass's smell."
The car drove back home and entered the main hall. Han Ruoxi frantically shouted out Du Jie's name, and her mother, Guan Na, was very curious. She asked, "Didn't you all go together? Is he in trouble again? "
Du Jie didn't come back?
When she called, Du Jie's phone was actually in the living room. It seemed like she really couldn't reach him. Han Ruoqing couldn't help but feel anxious.
After an unknown period of time, Du Jie's laughter finally came from outside the door. Han Ruoqing got up angrily, ran out the door with her little sister Han Ruoyu, and was about to ask Du Jie about it when she saw him carrying Han Ying towards the villa.
"I say you! "How come no one remembers that today is the day Dad is going to leave the hospital?" The smile on his face was cute, but it was also infuriating.
"Du Jie is still the best. He said that a foster child is not as good as an adopted daughter, while an adopted daughter is not as good as a son-in-law. Today, I have truly gained insights." Han Ying was still mending the seams.
"Dad, I'm sorry. I forgot to leave the hospital today." Han Ruoqing kept apologizing, then stepped forward to support Han Ying. Subconsciously, she would steal a glance at Du Jie. For some reason, she didn't want to get angry at him for what happened today.
No one brought up any more questions about Du Jie's performance. On the internet, it was different, Du Jie was a legend, a son-in-law beating the face of a tycoon, a single person defending against the enemies of the masses, in any case, Du Jie had his own fan club. Of course, the majority of these people were still ordinary citizens, and there were also those pure girls.
From time to time, Han Ruoqing's phone would ring. Seeing that it was her university classmates and a few close friends, their topics were all to get to know Du Jie. Du Jie clearly heard that he purposely kept away from Han Ruoqing, pretending to avoid her without knowing anything.
"To be honest, your husband isn't as trash as everyone says he is. On the contrary, if you give him some rain or dew, he will grow strong again. You can't underestimate him in the future!"
"Little girl, what do you know?"
"Who says I understand what? My dad said that."
Han Ruoxi and her best friend retorted on the phone, but in the end, they were speechless. Was this a good thing or a bad thing? It was hard to tell.
There were so many calls that Han Ruoxi wanted to shut down her phone. She threw the blame for the mess to Du Jie, who had disappeared again.
It just so happened that Chen Yu Jiao was also on the other end of the phone. Ye Nan looked at his tablet computer and analyzed, "Young master, you almost exposed yourself today, but luckily, you were relatively cold and talkative when you appeared in your woodland identity, and this time you were much more flamboyant. Therefore, we have yet to connect you together, but you have to be more careful in the future."
He could guess that Zhang Yang would attract a lot of attention this time.
Chen Yujiao thought for a moment before giving her opinion. She suggested, "Young Master, since it's like this, I think you can do things with a high profile and focus your attention. This way, many people and things will come to you on their own accord. Ye Nan and I are responsible for secretly observing and analysing."
"This is the only way?"
"What can only happen now?"
Just as Du Jie was sighing, a voice came from behind him. He quickly hung up and turned around to see Han Ruoqing. She knew Du Jie was on the phone, so she didn't go near to eavesdrop.
"I... These days I bought a stock and I heard it was starting to fall, so I was advised to throw it out. " Du Jie came up with an excuse in a hurry, but his tone lacked confidence.
"You're still speculating about stocks? Which stock did you invest in? " Han Ruoqing was also half believing and half doubting him, so she simply asked.
Du Jie's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts. How could he possibly want to stock up? It was all nonsense.
"Not much, just tens of thousands." You're not giving me pocket money, so it's not good for me to make some money from my stock exchange! "
"Are you short of money? Do you want me to return that twenty million to you so that you can invest more? " Han Ruoqing didn't seem like she was joking. She wasn't joking either, but she felt that there were many secrets on Du Jie that she didn't know about. Since they still needed to live together for a period of time, then from today onwards, they would have to discuss things clearly.
Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, Du Jie said anxiously and apologetically, "No, my dear wife. Actually, I …" You must believe me, I have always been loyal to you. "
"This is serious young master Du, how capable are you? In such a short period of time you can earn this amount of money without using any power. I really can't control you." Han Ruoqing's attitude was even more distressing than cursing, and Du Jie was vexed.
"Do you want me to give you a chance?"
Naturally, Du Jie regarded this as an opportunity for Han Ruoqing to spit it out. Thus, he nodded his head in agreement.
"Alright, follow me to my bedroom."
As Han Ruoqing walked away, Du Jie suddenly had a guess. Why would she go to her bedroom?
The moment he stepped into the bedroom, Han Ruoxi fiercely locked the door behind her. Du Jie's heart was thumping hard, making it difficult for him to breathe. He could only feel his throat drying up as his entire body felt hot.
