Xu Nuo saw the smiles on their faces and her eyes changed slightly, but she didn’t beg for mercy. Not long after, Xu Nuo’s painful screams were heard from the secret room.
When Eden came back, Xu Nuo had been tortured to the point that she could only gasp for air.
Jin Enxi squatted down in front of Xu Nuo, “Why do you defend Allen so much? He is a pervert and a psychopath, and he should be destroyed. Moreover, this person is cold-blooded and ruthless, and treats his subordinates like animals. You see, we have captured you for a day and a night, but he didn’t come to save you. Even if you die, he won’t even blink an eye. Why are you defending him so much?”
“Who are you?” Xu Nuo finally spoke the first sentence since she came here.
Jin Enxi smiled, “We are Allen’s enemies, and the feud is undying. He is such a pervert that everyone wants to kill him. You must have suffered a lot under his hands. Do you want to join us and kill him together with us?”
“Also?” Xu Nuo grasped a word sharply, “Were you also trained by Allen?”
Jin Enxi’s eyes flashed with a trace of annoyance. Sisley stepped forward and kicked Xu Nuo, “Stop talking nonsense. I ask you, what does Allen want to do?”
Xu Nuo’s eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and then she closed her mouth again, saying nothing.
“You have a hard temper. I like people with hard tempers the most.” Sisley smiled charmingly.
On the other side, Peter, who hadn’t seen Xu Nuo for two days, felt a little strange, “Allen, where is Xu Nuo?”
Allen didn’t answer. At this moment, he was gloomy. He was in a bad mood these two days because Shen Qinglan went to the Beijing Military Region.
Peter asked casually, and when he saw that he didn’t say anything, he didn’t ask.
….
After the three days of college entrance examination, Yan Xi was finally liberated. The dark life of senior high school was over, and she felt that she was revived instantly. She called Shen Qinglan immediately, but the call did not go through.
Yan Xi thought about it and called Yu Xiaoxuan again. It happened that Yu Xiaoxuan was resting at home today. After receiving Yan Xi’s call, she jumped out of bed immediately, “Okay, I know a very delicious snack shop, it’s in Yonghe Lane in the north of the city, the taste is delicious.”
Yan Xi smiled, “Okay, Sister Xiaoxuan, let’s meet on Xinhua Road.”
Yu Xiaoxuan responded with a “OK”, took the time to change clothes and wash, and used the shortest time to put on a light makeup before going out.
When she arrived at the agreed place, Yan Xi was already there, carrying a backpack, standing on the side of the road, looking down at her phone.
Yu Xiaoxuan stopped the car, “Yan Xi.”
Yan Xi looked up and saw Yu Xiaoxuan, opened the car door and got in, “Sister Xiaoxuan, is that store far away?”
“Not very far, it’s just in a small alley, so the car can’t drive in.”
After driving for about ten minutes, the car stopped in front of a small alley. Yu Xiaoxuan got out of the car and took Yan Xi into the alley.
This was the old city in the north of the capital. Unlike the old city in the south of the city, most of the residents here were from poor families, and the people living here were also mixed.
Following Yu Xiaoxuan all the way, Yu Xiaoxuan took her into a laughing spot. It was really a small store, with an area of no more than 30 square meters, including the kitchen, and there were less than ten tables in the store.
Because it was not mealtime, there were not many people eating. Including Yu Xiaoxuan and her friends, there were only three tables of people. The proprietress was cleaning. When she saw the guests coming in, she warmly invited them to sit down. The people at the other two tables looked at them with a frown, because their outfit was really out of place in this restaurant. Yu Xiaoxuan ignored their gazes and sat down.
“Madam, two bowls of braised pork, one portion of fried liver, and one portion of fried tripe.” Yu Xiaoxuan ordered the food in a familiar way.
“Okay, wait a moment.” The proprietress responded and walked into the kitchen.
Yan Xi had never been to such a place before, and she was a little uncomfortable for a while. She took a look at the oil stains on the table and felt a little embarrassed.
Yu Xiaoxuan took out a tissue and handed it to her.
“Sister Xiaoxuan, how did you find a place like this?” Yan Xi asked in a low voice while wiping the oil stains on the table with a tissue.
“I was filming a movie near here, and the crew told me that this restaurant may not look good, but its braised pork and steamed buns are unique and taste absolutely delicious. You can’t eat them anywhere else in Beijing.”
“What is braised pork and steamed buns?” Yan Xi was confused. She had eaten a lot of delicious food, but the food she ate was usually from big hotels or high-end restaurants. Naturally, there was no such thing as braised pork and steamed buns in such places.
“A traditional Beijing snack, you must not have eaten it before.” Yu Xiaoxuan had a hint of pride on her face. The braised pork and steamed buns in this restaurant were the best she had ever eaten in Beijing.
Yan Xi shook her head. She had indeed never eaten it before, and it was the first time she had even heard of it. Although she went to school in Beijing, she only went to high school in Beijing. She had lived in Nancheng since she was a child. In addition to her wealthy family and her own health reasons, her family did not allow her to eat from street stalls, fearing that it was unhygienic and would damage her health.
The food was served. Yan Xi looked at the big bowl in front of her and smelled it. It smelled quite good, but she looked at the meat-like thing on it and asked, “Sister Xiaoxuan, what is this?”
“Pig lungs and small intestines, don’t worry, they are cleaned very well.” Yu Xiaoxuan said.
Yan Xi’s face froze and her eyes widened. “Pig small intestines…” Was this what she was thinking of?
Yu Xiaoxuan nodded affirmatively, and had already picked up the chopsticks and started eating impatiently, with a look of satisfaction. Seeing Yan Xi hesitant to move, “Yan Xi, it tastes really good, you should try it. Oh, isn’t it just pig offal? Just think about it, the French foie gras you eat is also goose offal.”
Yan Xi was convinced, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, picked up a little bit and put it in her mouth, chewed it carefully, and her eyes lit up, “This thing is delicious.”
“It tastes good, right? My recommendation must be right.” Yu Xiaoxuan smiled, and the fried liver and fried tripe came up at the right time, “Let’s try these two. Although the fried liver and fried tripe here don’t taste as good as those in Huguo Temple, they taste much better than those in ordinary restaurants.”
Yan Xi didn’t hesitate this time, picked up a chopstick and threw it into her mouth, nodding frequently, “It’s really delicious, Sister Xiaoxuan, I will follow you from now on.”
When the two of them finished eating and walked out of the store, their stomachs were already full. Yan Xi patted her stomach and burped, “Burp, I’m so full, I didn’t expect these things to be so delicious and so cheap.”
“Next time I’ll take you to Huguo Temple. There’s a street of snacks there, with more food. I guarantee you’ll want to go there again after you’ve eaten there once.”
“Okay. When I go to B University, I’ll have a lot of time. I must try all kinds of snacks in Beijing.” Yan Xi smiled. After the college entrance examination, she checked her answers and found that her grades were pretty good. She should have no problem getting into B University, so Yan Xi was in a good mood these two days.
Zhao Jiaqing had returned from abroad. She had been out for a few months. When she came back, her mind was much calmer and her whole person was gentler. Seeing that her daughter had finished the exam, she suggested that she go out to play with friends.
“In fact, there are more than just these snacks. There are many delicacies in Beijing. When I have time, I will compile a guide for you. You can go there with your classmates or friends in your spare time. These are all things I have discovered and recorded since I was a child. I don’t tell ordinary people about them.”
Speaking of food, the two foodies were very knowledgeable and naturally had a pleasant chat.
“Wu Qian?” Just as she walked to the entrance of the alley and saw the familiar back in front of her, Yu Xiaoxuan hesitated and called out.
