Chapter 83 Candlelight Dinner
"42, 43, 44..."
Reina sat on the chair, crossed her legs, and supported her chin with one hand. While counting, she admired Zhang Ailun's muscle lines, "Nice figure."
"You're pretty good too." Zhang Ailun looked up and saw her perky butt wrapped in jeans, her dangling sandals, and her toes painted with nail polish.
Reina didn't mind at all, instead she crossed her legs and tensed them even more.
He smiled faintly, "Are you free tonight? Do you want to stay for a drink? I still have the Pinot Noir you gave me."
"Of course, I happen to have nothing to do today." Zhang Ailun said as he was about to stand up.
"Keep doing it! Don't stop."
“……”What kind of hobby is this?
Zhang Ailun was a little speechless and continued to do push-ups with one hand, "I am a wounded soldier! I am exhausted, you can't afford to compensate me, you know?"
"Then let's talk about it when you are exhausted. Hurry up, sir." Reina snorted.
When she couldn't do it anymore, she chose to let Zhang Ailun go. She put on a beige coat, tied a scarf, took the car keys and went out. "I have an appointment with other people in the shelter. I have to go to other communities to get some daily necessities and food. You stay here and watch the door. I will be back soon."
"Ok!"
Zhang Ailun didn't want to run around either, so he sent Reina away. When he came back, he took off the bandage on his arm and threw it into the trash can.
I found a charger to charge my phone, lay on the sofa and watched an American TV series, and fell asleep while watching.
As it got darker, a light drizzle began to fall again.
When Zhang Ailun woke up, he found that it was already dark. Reina pushed the door open and walked in carrying large and small bags of goods.
"Need help?"
Zhang Ailun opened the door to welcome her in and took a look at the goods in his hands. There were large and small packages and he had no idea what they were, but they all had the shelter's logo on them.
Reina placed the contents of the bag on the table, including daily necessities such as hand sanitizer, skin care products, antibacterial wipes, concealer, as well as various ingredients such as steak, frozen shrimp, bacon, broccoli, tomatoes, pasta, and desserts in boxes.
Wait, what is that? A little blue umbrella?
When Zhang Ailun saw the small blue bag passing through Reina's hand, he tactfully did not ask any further questions but just kindly asked if she needed any help.
"I do need your help." Reina said with a smile, "It will take some time for me to cook by myself. Alan, can you help me cut the ingredients and heat the frying pan? I need to go upstairs to take a shower first."
On the way back, I was soaked by the rain and felt very uncomfortable.
"of course."
After getting familiar with the kitchen of the shelter briefly with Reina's introduction, Zhang Ailun rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start working in a big way.
After washing the side dishes and waiting for the water to boil, he took out his cell phone and told Dominic that he would not be going back to live today.
Dominic: Not coming back again? Where are you now?
Allen Zhang: Rena’s shelter.
Dominic: Well, I thought you met some rich guy who wanted to take you in!
Zhang Ailun: Do you want to stay here for a night? It may continue to rain heavily tonight.
Dominic: Maybe next time. It might not be convenient for me to go now. Simone and her friends just delivered the goods and are considering how to distribute and sell them.
Allen Zhang: What have they done? They want to sell it?
Dominic: It's a bit exaggerated. They originally just wanted to get some daily necessities, but someone robbed the electronics store and the mobile phone store next door. They took advantage of the chaos and picked up a PS5 and a 4090 Nvidia graphics card that were lost when someone ran away.
Zhang Ailun: ??? What the hell?
No, can you pick up wild 4090 on the road?
Are you making trouble?
You said you picked it up from the roadside, do you think others will believe you?
Zhang Ailun searched the price and found that a 4090 graphics card was now priced at $2350, and even the low-end version was priced at $1900. You basically couldn't buy it at the launch price of $1599.
This means you will end up in jail for life.
However, this 4090 graphics card was picked up on the street, not snatched directly from the store, and there is no video recording, so the nature may be different. Lao Hei can pick up wild graphics cards directly on the street, and the loss of those stores is simply unimaginable!
Dominic: There is no use for this graphics card and PS5, so they plan to find someone on the street to sell them and exchange them for cash to be distributed equally.
Zhang Ailun: You guys can handle it yourselves. Anyway, I didn't participate in this event, so I don't have a share. Let's not talk about it now. I have to cook!
The water has been boiled.
Dominic: Ok.
It took Zhang Ailun a few minutes to prepare the side dishes, and he wanted to wait for Reina to cook herself. However, he waited and waited but she didn't come downstairs. He looked at the time and simply picked up the kitchen utensils and started working.
Who doesn’t know how to fry a steak?
In no time, the steak is fried until cooked on the outside and tender on the inside. Broccoli and tomatoes are sprinkled with rosemary and served on a plate. The pasta is cooked and the bacon is fried and added to the inside.
Looking at the frozen shrimps in his hand, Zhang Ailun pondered for a few seconds and decided to defrost them and make some braised shrimps.
The taste is definitely not as good as live shrimp, but fresh seafood is not popular here, and most of the seafood is frozen. Protein milk and beef are the staple food. People don’t live near the sea, so some people have never eaten freshly caught fish or shrimp in their lives.
After everything was done, it was placed on the table, and a few plastic flowers were put in the vase as decoration. There was no light in the room because there was no power supply, but fortunately there was a battery-powered table lamp, and the colorful neon lights looked very nice when turned on.
Zhang Ailun searched everywhere but couldn't find the bottle of Pinot Noir red wine. He was wondering why. Reina came downstairs with a decanter and two glass wine glasses.
The whole house was filled with fragrance. She saw the table was full of dishes and was a little surprised: "You've already prepared it?"
"Of course. I'm also very good at cooking. Come and try it."
Zhang Ailun pulled out the stool and warmly invited her to take a seat.
Her hair was tied up, and she was only wearing a thin silk pajamas. The clothes were too big and loose, and it was unclear whether she was wearing anything on her lower body, as well as her long, snow-white legs.
As I got closer, I smelled the scent of shower gel.
"Thank you, Alan, you are such a gentleman." Reina was very satisfied with his actions. After taking her seat, she poured the decanted red wine into the glass, which looked like Scarlet Mary. She clinked the glasses and tasted it, and it tasted good.
Anyway, Zhang Ailun was a wild boar and couldn't eat fine bran, so he could only taste a sour and astringent taste, with a hint of sweetness in the aftertaste.
Hold and drink.
Zhang Ailun buried his head in cooking steak.
After three rounds of drinks, both of them felt a little drunk.
Reina held her chin with one hand, her eyes were seductive, and her rosy face looked particularly attractive under the light. Zhang Ailun also suddenly felt that the other person's feet seemed to be placed in the wrong place.
When I looked down, I saw the jade feet with nail polish under the table.
Teasing, right?
"You've had a little too much to drink, haven't you? It's still raining outside, and it's not safe to walk at night. You definitely won't be able to go back tonight. Don't you think this atmosphere is suitable for doing what you need to do?"
Reina looked at Zhang Ailun in a drunken state, took out a small blue umbrella and put it on the table. This was not a hint, this was directly close to his face!
If I don't A up now, I'll be worse than a beast.
"I agree with your idea."
Zhang Ailun stood up and picked her up, preparing to go upstairs as the paid show was about to begin.
"You can do it right here," Reina said before kissing him passionately.
"...!!"
after an hour.
The two went upstairs to take a short rest, and Reina ran to the next room and took out a bunch of toys from the pink treasure box.
Zhang Ailun took a deep breath, "Oh no, she's well prepared! ! She wants to kill me?"
