C16 Hotpot

Tang Yifeng finished reading the last document in front of him and rubbed his aching temple. He worked so hard every day. As time passed, gradually, he had a headache problem. Fortunately, it was not a serious problem. As long as he paid attention to the balance of work and rest, he could slowly alleviate the symptoms.

When the pain in his temple was slightly alleviated, he got up. He took off his suit jacket from the back of the chair and put it on. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw the building opposite him. The figure standing by the window without moving.

Tang Yifeng unconsciously frowned. He remembered that after the afternoon meeting, he returned to his office. He saw her standing by the window. At that time, he thought she just wanted to see the scenery. But looking at the current situation, he was afraid that she had been standing by the window all afternoon without moving.

Tang Yifeng did not know why he would notice her. She was clearly just delicate and pretty. To him who was used to seeing beauties, she was not considered a very beautiful woman.

It was just that there seemed to be a kind of stubbornness in her that she had to work hard to survive and work hard to be happy. This kind of stubbornness might not be seen by others, but Tang Yifeng was best at reading people's expressions.

In the few times they met, she seemed to encounter some small trouble. But she always smiled to others, and today she stood in front of the window with such a lonely expression for so long. Something must have happened to her.

Just as Tang Yifeng kept guessing what had happened to her, she suddenly moved.

Tang Yifeng's office was facing the opposite room, and the glass outside the building of Tang's had been specially processed. The people inside could clearly see the outside, but the people outside could not see the inside of the building. This was a good place to spy on people.

Of course, when building the building, Tang Yifeng absolutely did not expect that the glass set up to protect privacy would have such an effect one day.

Tang Yifeng saw that she had used a lot of effort to move a small table to the French window in the opposite room. She turned around and went to the kitchen to get an electric hotpot. She connected the power, put in the seasoning of the hot pot, and poured a lot of water into the kettle. After that, she went into the kitchen again, but she did not come out for a long time.

"She wants to eat hotpot alone, right?" Tang Yifeng muttered to himself.

As if to verify Tang Yifeng's guess, he saw her coming out of the kitchen in the opposite room. She was holding a large tray in her hand. There were more than a dozen small plates on the tray. Each plate was filled with different kinds of hotpot ingredients: Fish balls, sausages, tripes, vegetables and so on.

Tang Yifeng looked at the ingredients on the tray that were full of weight. He suspected that she did not eat alone. She might have invited a friend to eat with her, but her friend had not arrived yet.

However, just as Tang Yifeng thought of this, he saw the woman opposite him put down the tray. She sat cross-legged on the cushion by the window. She lowered her head and started to seriously adjust the oil tray.

She really ate alone. With so much food, could a petite woman like her finish all of it?

Tang Yifeng wanted to know the result. He really stopped by the window.

Tang Yifeng looked at the bottom of the hot soup, the ingredients that were reducing bit by bit on the tray, and the hot air from the hot pot. The glass of the window that was slowly covered in a layer of mist and her red lips that were faintly exposed by the spiciness.

Tang Yifeng unconsciously swallowed his saliva. After he left the company later, he also had to eat hot pot.

Two hours later, Tang Yifeng saw that she was full. She had finished all the food on the plate.

Tang Yifeng lowered his head and looked at his watch. He found it hard to believe that he had spent two hours watching others eat hotpot, but he did not regret wasting his time.

This woman always had a blissful and satisfied feeling when she ate, which made him feel happy.

Tang Yifeng saw that after Su Nuannuan finished eating, there was finally a smile on her face. Tang Yifeng shook his head slightly and whispered, "A strange woman!"

Su Nuannuan looked at the messy cups in front of her and smiled in satisfaction as if she was three months pregnant. Even though she was very full now, it was difficult for her to even move a finger. But because of these two phone calls today, the dark clouds in her heart had completely dissipated.

For a foodie, there was nothing that could not be resolved with a meal. If one meal was not enough, then two meals!

Su Nuannuan leaned against the window in satisfaction and looked at the busy traffic downstairs. She felt that she was once again a warrior that could not be defeated.

She did not intend to go home. When other people were celebrating the New Year, they would also worry about the endless dinner and the huge spending of red packets. Now that she had saved those two red packets, she could go overseas for a trip.

Back then, because her mother was seriously ill, she hurriedly returned to the country and never went out again. During the time she was studying abroad, her teacher had taken care of her a lot. She did not have the chance to go back and visit. This time, she could use this opportunity to go back and see her classmates and teacher.

Although she was worried that Lulu might face the situation, she could not interfere with Lulu's decision. As an aunt, she could only do it when Lulu decided to resist the injustice of fate. She firmly stood behind her and acted as her powerful backing.

There was another rapid ringing of the phone. Su Nuannuan had already guessed who was calling before she got up to answer the phone.

As expected!

When Su Nuannuan saw the caller ID, these two words popped up in her head.

"Huanhuan." Because she ate too much, Su Nuannuan's tone of voice carried a hint of laziness.

"Sister, you went to eat hotpot again?"

"You are indeed worthy of being my good sister. How did you guess it?"

"Is there a need to guess? You have been like this since young, once you are in a bad mood, you have to eat hotpot. Every time you eat hotpot, your words become like this. If I still can't guess, then I don't deserve to be your sister for so many years!"

" You know me so well! "

"What did that stingy sister-in-law of ours ask you to do today?"

"Didn't Dad tell you?"

"Dad knows that he is in the wrong, but can he tell me the truth? He only said that you are becoming more and more petty. You don't even want to buy a birthday present for Lulu. You know my temper. He said that to you. I will just scold him back. I said you're just an aunt, you don't have the legal obligation to buy a birthday present for your niece. After I said that, he chased me out. He said that I'm someone else's wife, and this family doesn't welcome me."
