Xu Yiran was busy in the kitchen, and Lin Yi originally came out to help, but Xu Yiran rushed him back to the room.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, Huang Xingyue returned to her room after work. As soon as she came back, she smelled the fragrance all over the room and was quite surprised to see Xu Yiran who was busy cooking.

"Come on, come on, help me, you'll burn me to death!"

Xu Yiran was carrying the freshly cooked soup. When she saw Huang Xingyue coming back, she asked her to help serve the dishes.

She put the bowl of thick soup on the table. As soon as she put it down, she immediately blew on her fingers, which looked very hot.

"It smells so good. Didn't you say that you would never go to the kitchen again in your life? It would be extremely difficult to take a sip of your soup. Why do you suddenly have free time today?"

Huang Xingyue stepped forward and took a sniff. There was a lot of wolfberry and ginger added to the whole pot of black-bone chicken soup. The chicken was also stewed very well. The soup looked thick but not greasy, making it quite appetizing.

"I just want to drink it. If I want to drink it, just stew it. Anyway, I just got back, so there's nothing wrong with it." Xu Yiran chuckled and rubbed his fingers.

She took out a small spoon from the side, took a spoonful of the soup, and tasted it. It tasted just right.

Xu Yiran arched her eyebrows, pretending to be careless, and said to Huang Xingyue, who was holding a bowl and chopsticks excitedly, planning to put in a few bites of chicken: "Hey, go and call that person together, such a big pot,

We can’t drink it either.”

"Lin Yi? Is he back? Oh, then I'll call him."

Huang Xingyue walked quickly to Lin Yi's room, stood in front of the door, knocked on the door, opened the door, and looked at Lin Yi who was leaning on the bed reading a book: "Come out to eat, Yiran has stewed chicken soup."

Huang Xingyue pulled Lin Yi to the dinner table. Xu Yiran was not embarrassed to look at Lin Yi from beginning to end, but she poured out three bowls of chicken soup smoothly. When she watched Lin Yi drink it, her eyes were quite nervous.

"How is the taste?"

Huang Xingyue asked.

"Good."

Lin Yi took a sip and nodded.

Hearing this, Xu Yiran breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on his face: "That's not true. I have learned good cooking skills from my mother since I was a child. This black-bone chicken stew is my special skill. If I didn't want to give it to you,

If it’s to make up for it, I don’t have the patience to do it.”

"Replenish? What to replenish?" Huang Xingyue asked curiously.

"No...it's nothing. Hurry up and eat. There are many more dishes here!" Xu Yiran was a little flustered. There was no way to explain this matter.

After she finished speaking, she regretted even more. Huang Xingyue's eyes turned back and forth between her and Lin Yi from time to time, making Xu Yiran feel inexplicably embarrassed.

Lin Yi's face was indifferent, as if he didn't know anything. Just when he was about to pick up the bowl and take another sip of chicken soup and eat some food, Lin Yi's cell phone buzzed.

Lin Yi picked up the phone and took a look. He thought it might be Zheng Jiayun, but he didn't expect that the caller was Chen Linyan.

"Who?"

Xu Yiran, who was sitting at the other end, concealed her embarrassment at the moment, but couldn't help but be curious and poked her head to take a look.

"Alumni."

Lin Yi yawned and picked up the phone.

"Lin Yi, where are you now?"

On the other end of the phone, Chen Linyan's tone was a bit strange, but still quite gentle.

"At home, where I live."

"Oh, do you have time now?"

Chen Linyan asked: "If it's inconvenient, then forget it."

"Let's talk if you have something to say." Lin Yi said simply.

"I'm downstairs in your community now. Let's have dinner together in the evening. Someone wants to see you." At this point, Chen Linyan paused again: "If you don't want to see me, you don't have to come. I will tell them.

.”

"Want to see me?" Lin Yi heard this and after thinking about it, he did not refuse: "Okay, I'll be down soon. Just wait at the gate of the community."

Lin also hung up the phone.

"It's a girl. Could he be your suitor in school? This is amazing. I can't tell, but you are so popular that the little girl comes to the gate of the community to squat on you." Huang Xingyue

A look of admiration.

"It's not an ordinary alumni relationship." Xu Yiran also leaned her head, a little secretly annoyed. Just now, her head wasn't forward enough, so she couldn't hear the voice on the phone clearly.

"It's not as mysterious as you think. I have to go out now. You can eat slowly. The soup is delicious. Thank you." Lin Yi stood up, returned to the room, simply changed his clothes and went out.

"Oh, no matter how anxious I am, I still drank this bowl of soup."

Xu Yiran shouted at Lin Yi's back, but the door was closed and Lin Yi didn't look back.

Xu Yiran's mouth curled up, and she dragged her cheek with one hand, looking at Lin Yi's remaining bowl of soup, looking slightly melancholy.

"I knew that this soup of yours was not for me." Huang Xingyue rolled her eyes, then thought of something, and looked at Xu Yiran with a surprised look on her face: "You said tonic...could you be..."

Huang Xingyue thought of a possibility, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"It's not what you think! What are you thinking! I'm not like an old cow eating young grass!" Xu Yiran waved her hands repeatedly, and her face turned red when she saw it.

"Then I can rest assured. I don't object to you old cow eating young grass or anything. Lin Yi is much better than most boys. He is responsible and upright. He has helped us so much."

He did it many times and never asked for anything in return. If it were any other man, he would have taken advantage of me long ago."

Huang Xingyue was serious. After she finished speaking, she and Xu Yiran looked at each other. As if they had thought of something, they quickly put down the soup bowls in their hands and ran to the balcony together.

Looking down from the balcony, Xu Yiran and Huang Xingyue quickly locked onto a girl standing outside the main gate of the community. Lin Yi on the other side had just walked out of the building and was walking in that direction.

"Looking from a distance, she looks good." Huang Xingyue commented.

"The appearance shouldn't be bad, and the temperament seems to be quite good." Xu Yiran nodded in agreement, deeply convinced.

They looked at Chen Linyan standing outside the community from a distance.

Chen Linyan was wearing a white shirt, a light yellow thin sweater, a pair of black leggings, and a pair of sneakers.

She lowered her head, holding her mobile phone in her hand, and stood under a tree outside the community sentry box, looking at the orange-red mottled light and shadow illuminated by the broken red sunset on the horizon, pacing back and forth on the bluestone crosswalk,

He looked worried.

Occasionally, a young man riding a bicycle passed by and couldn't help but look over here. Watching the breeze blowing Chen Linyan's long hair, time seemed to stand still.
