Chapter 284: The more you describe, the worse it gets. Da Mai’s desire for strength.
After the two of them brought back the wheat malt, they hurriedly drove directly to the hotel on the Bund.
Chen An had carefully booked a room before coming. Along the way, Da Mai praised the comfort of the brand new Mercedes-Benz, his eyes full of love and envy.
Chen An introduced the scenery along the way, and at the same time took it all in calmly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, thinking silently in his heart that the little girl's birthday was coming soon, and this gift seemed to be a good choice.
At noon, the dining table of the Chen family in Nanjing was filled with a large table of fragrant dishes.
The dishes were steaming hot and the aroma filled the whole room. Chen Nanxing was like a greedy kitten. Not long after the chicken was stewed, she couldn't wait to get up. She was wearing loose pajamas and slippers, and kept wandering around the kitchen door.
As a qualified quality inspector, I must taste every dish first.
"Hongdou, try this quickly. It's pure free-range chicken." Mother Chen greeted enthusiastically at the dining table.
"Well, Auntie, this is really delicious. Not only are the ingredients top-notch, but your cooking skills are also superb!" Xu Hongdou picked up a piece of chicken, gently put it into her mouth, chewed it carefully, and said with a satisfied look on her face.
Chen Nanxing drank a mouthful of soup happily and couldn't help but joked, "Hongdou, increase the heat, praise it more, let my mother work harder, and show you all her cooking skills."
"As long as Hongdou likes it, there will be absolutely no problem." A bright smile blossomed on Chen's mother's face. As she spoke, she picked up another piece of pork chops for Xu Hongdou, her eyes full of love.
Father Chen also said with a smile on his face: "That's right, Hongdou, just tell me what you want to eat and I'll go buy it. We don't have anything else here, but we have a full range of natural and pollution-free fish, shrimp and meat."
"No need to be so troublesome, uncle and aunt." Xu Hongdou waved her hands quickly.
"It's not a hassle at all, Hongdou. As a giant panda, all the food I eat now has to be professionally tested by the two keepers. They are eager to buy me fruits, and they prefer those with insects in them, for fear that there may be pesticide residues." Chen Nanxing said with a smile and blinked his eyes mischievously.
Mother Chen smiled dotingly: "Who made you pregnant with our Chen family's seed now? Wait a few more months, after you give birth, you won't get this treatment anymore."
"Seeing that there is no Hongdou, what did I say? They are just showing off their intentions now. It's a pity that I have become a tool for the Chen family to continue its lineage."
Father Chen smiled and picked up a chicken leg and put it in his daughter's bowl. "Come on, tool man, eat something to replenish your body."
"Comrade Chen, your performance is acceptable. You should take good care of your wife. She has been becoming more and more unreasonable recently." Chen Nanxing pouted his lips in pretending to be angry and said coquettishly.
Mother Chen glared at her daughter, but the unstoppable smile on her face clearly showed her inner joy.
After all, even though it has been a long time since they transformed from a miserable family of two to a family of four today, she still feels a sense of unreality from time to time.
Xu Hongdou coughed lightly and said apologetically, "Uncle, Auntie, it's not necessary to be so troublesome. The main reason I came here this time is that I am worried about Nan Nan and I want to see her with my own eyes. I will go to the Magic City in the afternoon because I have some urgent matters there."
"Ah, Hongdou, you are leaving in the afternoon, why didn't you tell me?" Chen Nanxing asked in surprise before his father and mother could speak.
Xu Hongdou had to explain patiently: "It's almost National Day, and the company is recruiting soon. I have to be there. Besides, the team here needs to get used to each other, and then I have to go back to Yunnan for filming. Then we can fulfill our agreement."
"But this is too hasty. I still have a lot to say to you." Chen Nanxing's face was full of reluctance, his brows slightly furrowed, and the chopsticks in his hand stopped unconsciously.
Chen's mother asked curiously, "Hongdou, are you going to the Magic City? Did you find a new job?"
Before Xu Hongdou could even open her mouth, Chen Nanxing couldn't wait to answer and blurted out everything. Xu Hongdou was so embarrassed that she could hardly stand. She thought to herself: Why is Nan Nan so anxious? It's a mess, everything is a mess.
Xu Hongdou's face turned red and her eyes were full of helplessness.
"This is good news, Hongdou. Your uncle and I have been worried about you quitting your job. Now that we see that you have better development, we are happy for you." Mother Chen said quickly, her eyes full of relief.
"Yes, you and Nan Nan are not young anymore. Although work is important, the major issues in life should be resolved as soon as possible. As for age, our old ideas are no longer in line with the trend. It is better for you young people to decide for yourselves." Father Chen also nodded in agreement.
Xu Hongdou smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond. She was secretly vomiting blood in her heart. This was simply making things worse. No, when she saw that little bastard, she had to kick him twice first, otherwise the anger in her heart would make her die of anger.
At this time, in a room on the 28th floor of the W Hotel on the Bund in Shanghai, as the saying goes, hard work pays off, and Chen An naturally would not waste this precious time.
Wheat Sprout was ruthlessly driven under the bed twice in a row. Its round eyes were full of grievances. It could only lean pitifully on the sofa by the window, meowing at the two of them, its voice full of dissatisfaction and protest.
However, the two owners were obviously deaf to its cries and were still immersed in their own world.
Out of boredom, Wheat Sprout could only helplessly bask in the sun by itself. It curled up into a ball, its furry body rising and falling with its breathing.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. It was once again roughly grabbed and thrown onto the bed while sleeping soundly on the sofa. Little Wheat looked at the sofa it had just warmed up with resentment, which was occupied by two shameless humans. It could only meow helplessly to express its strong dissatisfaction.
Its tail was drooping and its ears were drooping, making it look very pitiful.
From a confident female general to now being able to only lean against the floor-to-ceiling window to look at the scenery, Damai's mentality has somewhat collapsed.
Her originally rosy lips were slightly pouting, and there was a hint of loss in her eyes.
I thought that my efforts during this period would definitely achieve the desired results, but in front of a powerful enemy, my fragile defense line seemed so powerless.
At this time, Da Mai had no time to pay attention to the beautiful scenery outside the window. She regretted not eating more at noon, and her stomach began to growl.
After Chen An's unremitting efforts, he finally gained 200 points and two energy points, which solved the urgent problem.
After all, recruitment is about to begin, and I only have 130 points left. If I work hard these few days, it should be enough to handle a job fair.
As for 143 energy points, although it may seem like a lot, it is actually not enough for one draw.
According to Chen An's calculations, the chance of triggering a critical hit in the first intermediate lottery is very high. In order to get the generous reward, he will have to work hard for at least half a month.
At the same time, Chen An was a little depressed. The advantages and disadvantages of physical enhancement were very obvious.
On the one hand, you can be more confident and replenish your energy quickly, but at the same time, the time spent is also greatly increased.
If it were the state of a cat, then within a month, Chen An would be able to make the system dizzy. Unfortunately, Chen An is destined to be unable to experience the pleasure of being a real man for three seconds.
