Chapter 159 - 159 Dinner In The Dormitory, Nothing Would Come Out From Being Reserved
159 Dinner In The Dormitory, Nothing Would Come Out From Being Reserved
In the dormitory, Luo Feng and the other two guarded the small table. Yang Bo sat alone at his table and picked up a book to pretend to study.
Luo Feng opened the lid of the Tupperware container and poured the original soup into the matching disposable pot. Then, he ignited the solid alcohol. After a while, the bright red hotpot soup began to bubble.
The fragrant and spicy smell immediately filled the dormitory.
Luo Feng and the other two generously poured vegetables into the pot and added what they liked. Multiple fragrances overlapped. Yang Bo, who was pretending to be unintentionally, twitched his nose and could not help but secrete saliva.
His throat moved up and down as he silently scolded himself for being spineless. In order not to show that he was so greedy, he silently moved closer to the window.
“I don’t want to eat, I don’t want to eat.” Yang Bo hypnotized himself. He held the book and recited silently, “I love studying. Learning makes me happy.”
Luo Feng and the other two were focused on the pot.
“Is this cooked?”
“I think it’s edible now.”
Ali and Hao Yingqiang were especially excited, like puppies waiting to put food in. They were obedient and impatient. Luo Feng was afraid that they would have diarrhea if they ate raw food, so he knew that the food was all cooked before he handed the chopsticks to the two of them.
Then, he looked up at Yang Bo, who was about to move to the balcony, and said, “Yang Bo, let’s eat together.”
Yang Bo’s back was facing the three of them as he said reservedly, “No, this hotpot is not as good as the one I mentioned.”
“Hehe!” Hao Yingqiang pinched his chopsticks and laughed. “If you don’t eat, then I won’t stand on ceremony with the snowflake meat that Luo Feng specially ordered!”
As he spoke, he picked up a large piece and placed it in the bowl. He wrapped it in sticky paste and hurriedly blew on it twice. He wrapped it all in his mouth. Rich oil splashed in his mouth. It was hot and fragrant.
Hao Yingqiang’s mouth was extremely busy. He had to blow on the meat to cool it down, but he couldn’t control himself and chewed the meat to his heart’s content.
“Delicious! Delicious!” He praised repeatedly. “I’ve never eaten such tender meat! Yangbo, are you really not eating?”
“The snowflake meat needs to be boiled in clear soup to retain the fragrance of the meat. The hotpot ingredients have completely occupied the taste.” Yang Bo swallowed his saliva and tried his best to show that he was not interested at all.
“Is that so?” Luo Feng humbly accepted the suggestion. “Then let’s order the Mandarin Duck Wok1 next time.”
“Sure, sure.”
Ali raised both hands and agreed. A second later, he quickly put it down and picked up a piece of mutton from the pot. He had been eyeing this piece for a long time, so he quickly put it in his mouth.
The hotpot was fragrant and spicy. It was spicy and refreshing. The three of them ate until they were sweating. They simply took off their jackets and ate as much as they could.
Yang Bo was holding his book. When he heard the sound of food being eaten, he did not read a single word.
In order to avoid the fragrance, he was already standing at the balcony door. It was only a wall away from the cold outside. He was starving and cold, and his stomach was rumbling. Was he eating so happily on purpose?
Yang Bo regretted it. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have held back. When Luo Feng called him first, he should have gone over and picked up his chopsticks.
Luo Feng, even if you shout again, I’ll be right there. I’ll definitely praise your hotpot. Look at me!
Unfortunately, Luo Feng could not hear Yang Bo’s thoughts. He ate happily and suddenly put down his chopsticks. “If only I had another cup of coke at this time.”
This was the first time he had cooked hotpot in the dormitory, so he didn’t have any experience. If he could eat meat and drink cold drinks in big mouthfuls, he wouldn’t have any regrets in life.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“Next time.”
Ali and Hao Yingqiang were busy picking up food and responding to Luo Feng.
“You don’t have it, but I do!”
At this moment, another person’s answer came from the door.
Luo Feng turned around and saw the boy from the neighboring dormitory. He stuck his head out and smiled at them, holding half a dozen Cokes in his hand. His name was Rui Li, and he was in the same class as Yang Bo.
Rui Li often visited Luo Feng’s dormitory and everyone was very familiar with each other.
He did not stand on the ceremony and entered the house. He rubbed his hands and squatted by the small table. “You guys are too much. Why didn’t you invite us to eat hotpot?”
“That’s right.”
After Rui Li finished speaking, a few more heads popped out from the door. They were all Rui Li’s roommates. They had most likely smelled the fragrance of the hotpot and came over.
“Want to eat together?” Luo Feng did not mind.
Everyone was having a good time and would share the delicious food.
Yang Bo looked at the pot. There were still some things left. If Rui Li and the others didn’t come, he might be able to pick up a few mouthfuls. Looking at the hungry wolf-like gazes of his classmates, Yang Bo instantly became anxious.
“There’s only a pair of chopsticks left. There’s not enough for the four of you.”
“No!” Rui Li smiled shyly and took out a fork and a small lunch box from his pocket. “You don’t have to worry about this, hehe.”
Yang Bo’s scalp went numb from his actions. Why did he bring his own cutlery to freeload?
The others also showed their cutlery at the same time and quickly surrounded the small table, their eyes shining.
When Luo Feng saw this, he thought to himself that it was a good thing that he had ordered enough today. Otherwise, it would not have been enough for a few people to share.
Rui Li picked up a piece of pork rib, not caring if it was hot or not, he directly held it in his hand and nibbled until his mouth was full of oil. He inadvertently caught a glimpse of Yang Bo looking at him.
“Why are you standing there? Aren’t you coming to eat with us?” Rui Li asked in surprise.
Without waiting for Yang Bo to answer, Hao Yingqiang smiled and said, “Yang Bo wants to eat boiled snowflake meat. Maybe he thinks the taste is too strong.”
“Oh, oh.” Rui Li finished the soup on the bone and said, “It’s not a good habit to be picky.”
Yang Bo felt his heart ache.
Not only did he not get to eat the hotpot in his dormitory, but he was also misunderstood by his classmates in the dormitory next door as a picky eater. If he had known earlier, he would not have pretended to be cool. He had brought this upon himself.
Luo Feng saw his pained expression.
It was really unbearable to watch. The hotpot was about to run out. If he still did not come to eat, he would have to wait for the next time.
“Yang Bo, are you really not eating? If you don’t eat now, there won’t be any left.”
Yang Bo suddenly raised his head and felt an angelic glow on Luo Feng’s face. He had stood there and glared for so long before Luo Feng finally spoke!
“I… I’ll just try the taste.” Picking up his chopsticks, Yang Bo didn’t forget to save some face. “If it’s delicious, I’ll treat you guys to a meal at the restaurant next time.”
He picked up the last pair of chopsticks and put a small piece of snowflake meat into his mouth.
The fat of the meat had been soaked in spices. It was soft and fragrant, and the spicy taste stimulated his appetite. The delicious Yang Bo was about to cry.
When one piece entered his stomach, Yang Bo felt an unprecedented satisfaction in his heart. He wanted to pick up another piece to eat, but the others put down their chopsticks and forks and said the cruelest thing Yang Bo felt: “I’m full.”
Yang Bo looked down and saw that the pot was already empty!
The chopsticks hanging in the air trembled slightly, unable to believe his eyes.
