Dare to cook

Chapter 151 The Little Girl on the Hospital Bed

at night.

Short term villa rental.

In the restaurant, the lights are bright, the cups and cups are intertwined, and the joy is harmonious.

Apart from Yao Yu, among the boys, Zhu Xingchen, Shen Qiuming, Chu Huangyou, Ding Binghui, Zhao Fenyang, and Guo Chaoyi were all here.

On the girl's side, apart from Lu Chenyu, there were Zhao Jingxi, Xu Wanrong, and Sun Mengke.

Compared with the gathering of hundreds of people yesterday, the dinner party tonight is naturally much smaller.

However, the atmosphere of getting along is more casual and harmonious.

Among these people, Zhu Xingchen and Shen Qiuming are Yao Yu's best buddies.

Xu Wanrong and Sun Mengke are just acquaintances with Yao Yu.

It's just that because of Lu Chenyu these two days, there are signs of gradually integrating into Yao Yu's circle of friends.

Before dinner started, Yao Yu originally called Bai Yuanchu to come over.

However, Bai Yuanchu was withdrawn by nature and didn't like to join in the fun, so he refused straight away.

After dinner, Yao Yu originally wanted to go shopping with Lu Chenyu and walk along the road.

However, there are still a bunch of light bulbs in the villa, which are automatically following them and shining brightly.

Yao Yu really couldn't find a suitable excuse to take Lu Chenyu to act alone, so he had no choice but to give up his plan to be alone with Lu Chenyu tonight.

The villa that Yao Yu rented has complete entertainment facilities.

From KVT to board game room, everything in the party hall can be found in the villa.

When everyone was playing in the villa until almost ten o'clock, Chu Huangyou and Ding Binghui left first because there was still a match tomorrow morning.

Then Zhu Xingchen, Zhao Fenyang and others also left one after another.

After Lu Chenyu and Yu agreed on a specific time to visit Li Xiaomeng tomorrow, they also left the villa.

Shen Qiuming did not hesitate to stay.

He had already qualified in the first round of the group stage, and he didn't want to share a room with other players in the player's village, so he decided to live in a short-term rented villa to eat and drink from today onwards.

Yao Yu didn't care about this, anyway, there were still a few vacant rooms in the villa.

If Shen Qiuming lives here, he can still learn cooking skills with Shen Qiuming when he is free.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Chen Li, who woke up first, cooked a big pot of beef gluten noodles.

After Yao Yu and Yang Rui had breakfast, they went to the contestants' village to pick up Lu Chenyu and Zhao Jingxi, and then went to visit Li Xiaomeng at Li's house according to the address Li Donglai sent.

Chen Li and Mu Shaoran did not go together, but stayed in the villa, continuing to practice the new dishes they wanted to master.

……

Li Donglai's residence is in Shinan District, Qindao City.

In order to facilitate his daughter's treatment, he lives very close to Qindao City Hospital.

From Huangdao District to Shinan District, the fastest route is to take the Jiaozhou Bay Submarine Tunnel.But even taking this route would take an hour's drive.

When I arrived at Li Donglai's house, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

Today Li Donglai was wearing casual home clothes, when he heard the doorbell ring, he immediately came out to answer the door.

As soon as the door opened, Li Donglai was stunned.

Yao Yu only told him yesterday that he would bring a few friends over, but he didn't say who these people were.

At this time, seeing Lu Chenyu who came to visit with Yao Yu, Li Donglai smiled after being stunned: "Welcome, welcome, I didn't expect Lu Chenyu to come here with Yao Yu, please come in quickly."

"The chef Xiaomeng admires the most is you two. She will be very happy to see you coming."

"Uncle Li, you're being polite. We took the liberty to visit and interrupt you." Lu Chenyu smiled.

He and Yao Yu entered the house.

Li Donglai lives on the seventh floor, and the size of this house is not large, just an ordinary three-bedroom and two-living room.

In addition to Li Donglai's father and daughter, there is also an aunt in her 40s who lives here all the year round and is responsible for taking care of Li Xiaomeng's life.

After Yao Yu and others came in, they followed Li Donglai to Li Xiaomeng's room.

Yesterday, Li Xiaomeng already knew that Yao Yu was coming, and the little girl was so happy that she didn't sleep well all night.

Hearing voices outside the door at this moment, Li Xiaomeng sat up with support.

It's just that she is already very weak now, unable to get out of bed, she can only sit on the head of the bed and look out eagerly.

"Xiaomeng, Yao Yu came to see you." Li Donglai pushed open the door of Li Xiaomeng's room and said.

Door open.

A tall, handsome and sunny little brother walked in.

After Li Xiaomeng saw Yao Yu, his face was full of joy, and his face was slightly red: "Yao Yu...brother, do you...remember me?"

Although he had been bedridden for a long time, Li Xiaomeng was not introverted and greeted Yao Yu on his own initiative.

"Of course I remember. You have grown so big in a blink of an eye." Yao Yu said with a smile, "Come on, let me introduce you to two friends. Do you know this young lady?"

Saying that, Yao Yu moved a few steps to the side, and Lu Chenyu and Zhao Jingxi also stepped forward to greet Li Xiaomeng.

"Lu Chenyu! You are Lu Chenyu!"

Li Xiaomeng didn't expect that Lu Chenyu would come, and immediately shouted in surprise.

From the age of 15, Li Xiaomeng's physical condition deteriorated, and she never went to school again.

Li Donglai was worried that his daughter would be bored at home all year round, so every time he came back, he would chat with her and talk to her about things in the culinary world.

Under the influence of Li Donglai, Li Xiaomeng gradually likes to read cooking magazines and cooking competitions.

It was because of watching those cooking competitions that Li Xiaomeng knew that her little brother who had saved her at Nanyang Lake had become a famous fanatic Yu.

Later, she also followed Yao Yu's public account, and sometimes left messages under Yao Yu's account, but she never mentioned her identity.

Li Xiaomeng knew that he was a person with no future.

At the average age, death has been foretelled in advance.

Suffering made Li Xiaomeng mature earlier than her peers.

She doesn't know what admiration is, and she can't tell the difference between liking and envy.

I just feel that if I can keep paying attention to Yao Yu, then my life must still be warm.

Therefore, she always pays attention to Yao Yu's movements through the Internet.

Whenever Yao Yu wins the competition again and again, she will also be happy.

Later, Yao Yu quit the culinary world because he lost his sense of taste. Li Xiaomeng also sent hundreds of private messages to comfort him, but he didn't know if Yao Yu had read it.

After Yao Yu retired, Lu Chenyu was born soon.

Therefore, Li Xiaomeng, who lost a kind of spiritual support, soon became a fan of Lu Chenyu again.

Li Xiaomeng admired Lu Chenyu very much. She had fantasized more than once that if she was healthy, she would definitely become an excellent chef like Lu Chenyu.

Well, it is the kind of excellence that pays equal attention to cooking skills and beauty.

However, Li Xiaomeng never told anyone about these little girls' little thoughts.

Those can only be regarded as her spiritual food, a kind of spiritual comfort that can be imagined but is destined to be unrealized.

But Li Xiaomeng never expected that the two idols she had secretly liked for a long time would come to see her at home together.

Li Xiaomeng was originally a very cheerful girl.

Even though she is now in an advanced stage of illness, she has never shed tears in front of her father. Instead, she comforts Li Donglai from time to time.

At this time, seeing Yao Yu and Lu Chenyu, Li Xiaomeng was just like an ordinary fan, and had endless things to tell them.

Yao Yu and Lu Chenyu also listened patiently with a smile, and occasionally talked about some interesting topics, which made Li Xiaomeng giggle.

It's just that sometimes when he laughs a little harder, Li Xiaomeng will cough weakly again because of this.

A few people felt distressed for a while.

To be honest, Li Xiaomeng sitting on the hospital bed is not pretty.

The little girl's facial features are good, if she is not tortured by illness, she must be a juicy big girl.

However, due to perennial illnesses and several surgeries and chemotherapy treatments over the years, Li Xiaomeng has already become emaciated.

Skinny body, pale and dull complexion, thin and yellow hair.

Apart from the occasional flashes of light in those eyes, Li Xiaomeng's physical condition is simply unbearable to see.

Even Yao Yu and the others tried their best to control the facial expressions, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
