Tokyo Police

v16 Chapter 86: new challenge

"I am back!"

"Ah, hard work, repair sauce, bath water and dinner are ready, do you want to eat first?"

"Um!"

After Lin Xiuyi saw Mingmei, he happily handed the briefcase in his hand to Mingmei, and then put on and took off his shoes at the entrance. Mingmei had to kneel down to help him, but... maybe he felt It's a bit embarrassing to do this, Lin Xiuyi didn't let Mingmei do it.

When Lin Xiu took off his shoes, he first stepped forward and hugged Ming Mei enthusiastically, and then the two of them returned to the bedroom like this. With Mingmei's help, Lin Xiuyi first changed into home clothes. Then, Mingmei couldn't wait to bring him to the restaurant. As if offering a treasure, Lin Xiuyi was placed on the seat, and then he enthusiastically helped him put the napkin.

"So... can we serve now sir?"

"Eh? Could it be something my mother made when I was a child? I didn't expect it...you really have a knack for making French food!"

"Yeah, I've been helping my mother since I was very young. I've seen it a lot and learned a little bit, but... I just don't know if Xiu Jiang will like it!"

"Of course I like it, as long as it's Mingmei's cooking, I like it! Then... tonight's dish is..."

"Sweet shrimp salad, and oxtail braised in red wine, as the main dish... I'm worried that you're not used to eating mashed potatoes, so I prepared rice and miso soup, what do you think?"

"Ah...that's so sweet!"

...

When Mingmei brought dinner, Lin Xiuyi found out that this red wine braised oxtail had been cut into small pieces before stewing to match the rice. Although the method might still be French, it seemed to be the same as the family. The stew made no difference. For this improved version of Western dishes, Lin Xiuyi really felt that Mingmei really put a lot of thought into it.

"Eh? It looks like the stewed beef tendon in the izakaya! Akimi-chan must have put a lot of thought into it!"

"Um... In order to match the rice, I cut the oxtail into small pieces before stewing. In this way, I don't need a knife and fork when eating, just use chopsticks! I have already thought about it, although I The craftsmanship of making Japanese dishes is far inferior to Rena, but I have helped my mother make French dishes since I was a child. If I can make French dishes that can be eaten with chopsticks, then I don’t have to worry about my cooking skills. Reina has gone down... Xiu-chan, please taste it first!"

Mingmei said, she picked up the chopsticks and handed it to Lin Xiuyi with both hands, Lin Xiuyi took the chopsticks that Mingmei handed over, the husband picked up a shrimp in the salad, and then carefully put it into his mouth and slowly chewed He got up, and soon a happy smile appeared on his face.

“Delicious, refreshing with fruit salad without feeling monotonous!”

"Do you like it? That's great, but the oxtail next to it is what I spent more time thinking about. You must try it!"

...

At Mingmei's strong request, Lin Xiuyi picked up his chopsticks, picked up a small piece of oxtail and put it in his mouth, and then tasted it seriously. Compared with the refreshing sweet shrimp salad just now, the taste of braised oxtail is more mellow. After entering the mouth, you can taste the plumpness and gummy texture of the oxtail. In addition... the red wine and spices contained in the meat are delicious. The flavor also makes this dish attractive. And after cutting into small pieces, it is also more suitable for eating with rice.

"Xiujiang, do you think it's delicious?"

"It's delicious. It's a completely different style from Reina. By the way... Mingmei-chan, is this the taste you often eat when you were a child?"

"Yeah, but it's still a bit worse than what my mother made... If... If I have the chance, Xiu Jiang must try the red wine braised oxtail made by my mother..."

When Mingmei said the last sentence, her eyes involuntarily looked at Lin Xiuyi's expression carefully, but she found that the other party didn't seem to notice the implication in her tone, which made Mingmei feel a little embarrassed, but in her heart. Thinking about how to tell Lin Xiuyi about this.

"that……"

"Eh? Nani?"

"There's still beer in the fridge, do you want to..."

"Um... ok!"

As soon as Lin Xiu heard Mingmei's speech, he couldn't help but raised his head and looked at her. After getting Lin Xiuyi's reply, Mingmei stood up and walked to the refrigerator, then picked up a wine glass and a bottle of beer and returned to Lin Xiuyi's side.

"puff!"

When the cap of the beer bottle was opened, the fragrant hop smell came out immediately. Seeing this, Mingmei picked up the bottle to fill Lin Xiuyi's glass, and then slowly put the glass in Lin Xiuyi's hand.

"That... Xiujiang, there is one thing, if I tell you, it won't make you feel very embarrassed!"

"Eh? Is there anything important? Is it about... liquidated damages?"

"Uh, that! That thing seems to have passed. Zuo ** told me that a new sponsor has started to contact the office to discuss cooperation with me. Speaking of which, it is really thanks to Xiu Jiang for taking me there. Going to Mr. Yuan's engagement party!"

"Ah...that's great. I've been worrying about this all these days. It would be a pity if Mingmei gave up the career she likes because of me."

"Huh? It turns out that Xiu-chan also thinks it's a pity that I give up my career. I thought... in the future... that person might not be able to continue working anymore!"

"No, as long as Mingmei-chan likes it, even after getting married, Mingmei can continue to engage in her own business!"

"marry……"

"I'm really sorry, did you say something to embarrass Mingmei-chan!"

"No... I'm just... just because there's something I don't know how to tell Xiu-chan... That... I was troubled by that thing a while ago... I... I told my mother about our relationship. …”

"Eh?"

"Then... Xiu sauce... can you accompany me to see my mother!"

"Forehead……"

Hearing that Mingmei suddenly announced such an important thing to himself~lightnovelpub.net~ Lin Xiu, who was not prepared at all, didn't know what to do for a while, he looked at Mingmei hesitantly, first seriously After thinking about it for a while, he solemnly nodded to Mingmei and said:

"Hey, I see! But..."

Seeing Lin Xiu's change of words, as if she was about to say something to resign, Mingmei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, so she raised her head a little aggrieved, and looked at Lin Xiuyi angrily, wanting to hear what this irresponsible guy would say any excuse.

"...Do you think it would be more appropriate for me to wear that suit?"

"Pfft... I hate you the most! Hate Xiujiang!"
