Feast

China, Province G, Melting City

In October, there is drizzle and breeze in Melting City, and the air is filled with the coolness of early autumn.

"After the new rain in the empty mountains, the weather will come late in autumn" is a perfect way to describe this city

As soon as Li Changfeng got off the plane, he was hit by the oncoming cold wind.

He tucked his windbreaker over his knees, and it was still the familiar airport station, nothing changed.

Five years, long time no see, Melting City.

"Professor Li knows how to come back! I thought the moon abroad is rounder than the one in China. Professor Li doesn't plan to come back." Yuan Shuai crossed his arms and looked at the calm young man in front of him contentedly.

Li Changfeng smiled, "If it wasn't for the sake of calling me Dad, I might not come back."

"As long as you are willing to come back, don't call you father, you can call you grandpa."

"No, I don't have this habit"

Yuan Shuai smiled, "Speaking of which, the old man is finally willing to let you go. If you don't come back, I will take someone to country M to tie you back." Yuan Shuai put his body on Li Changfeng's shoulders and turned his body towards him Approaching, unexpectedly Li Changfeng turned around, Yuan Shuai almost didn't have a close contact with the earth.

"Fuck, isn't it you, Li Changfeng, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you are still so forceful, you can't even touch it"

"It's not like you don't know that I'm not used to being so close to others"

"It seems that you haven't learned the essence of living in country M for five years." Yuan Shuai raised his eyebrows and smiled badly.

"Are you referring to CellularImmunology or Microbiology"

Yuan Shuai laughed, "I mean Haveaboyfriend"

Li Changfeng smiled lightly, and didn't answer his faults. His stern face made it impossible to see any emotion. Yuan Shuai didn't feel cold just now, but now standing next to him felt a little chilly.

Seeing his indifferent face, Yuan Shuai continued to joke, "Damn, you haven't touched him until now..."

"Yuan Datou"

"Huh?!" Yuan Shuai was terrified, wishing he could step forward and cover his mouth. After all, he is following the route of a successful person. This nickname is really a disservice to the image.

"You look handsome when you're not talking"

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm not handsome now?!" Yuan Shuai was furious, "Old! Son! Yong! Far! 24K! Pure! Handsome!"

Li Changfeng shook his head and smiled. After five years, the boy who walked around the dormitory with his bare buttocks still hasn't grown up.

"Li Changfeng! How many times have I told you not to call me big head again! Hey!! Li Changfeng, wait for me!!" Yuan Shuai couldn't help complaining while hurriedly catching up with him, "Damn, my legs are so long!"

After leaving the airport and getting into the car, Yuan Shuai stopped talking niannian.

Li Changfeng rubbed his temples, the bastard's habit of talking a lot hasn't changed at all.

After thinking about it all the time, the starlings raised by Li Changfeng in the dormitory are not as talkative as he is.

"It doesn't have to be me, why bother?" In order to stop Yuan Shuai from continuing to share the explosive topic of him and his [-]th little milk dog, Li Changfeng opened a rare topic.

"Hey~ You are wrong, this matter really depends on you"

"What's the background of the other party?"

"It's not easy to serve, he is a black and white master, but if this project can be negotiated, we will really make a lot of money."

Even without turning his face to look at his expression, Li Changfeng could feel the excitement in his words.

Even if Yuan Shuai didn't say anything, Li Changfeng knew that he was not easy to mess with. After all, in this era where entertainment is paramount, listed companies willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to invest in medical research and development projects have basically died out.

"I'll take you there to meet him first, and I'll take it as a clean-up for you."

Li Changfeng leaned back in the chair and felt a little tired after sitting on the plane all day.

"If you're tired, you can make an appointment another day."

"No, just today"

"Okay, then I will work hard for you tonight."

"Don't talk like that, it's easy to misunderstand"

Shuai Yuan: ...

After driving through the busy city and gradually entering the small garden, Yuan Shuai stopped in front of a Chinese restaurant called "Lubian Family".

"It should be here"

"should"

“It's my first time here”

Li Changfeng: ...

"Let's go ahead and talk"

"Excuse me, do you have an appointment?" Before they stepped into the store, they were stopped by several maids in Hanfu.

Yuan Shuai has been in and out of countless entertainment places over the years, and this is the first time he has seen a maid in Hanfu.

Interesting, it's very much to his BT's taste.

"no"

"Sorry guys, this store is not open to the public without an appointment"

The restaurant is closed?

The two looked at each other, and they had a bottom line in their hearts.

"Ahem..." Yuan Shuai cleared his throat, "Does Master Qin Jiu know?"

Maid nods

"He sent us here"

"So the two of you are friends of Master Jiu." The frown on the other maid's face was swept away, and she said with a smile, "This way, please."

Walking through the long Chinese-style corridor, passing by the rockery and the pond full of lotus, without the dazzling neon lights of spotlights, if not for seeing Li Changfeng who had already taken off his windbreaker and put on a suit jacket, Yuan Shuai would have thought that Crossed over by myself.

The maid pushed open the antique carved screen door, and a scent of rosemary came out.

The dining table in the pavilion was full of people, men and women, old and young, bustling with each other, enjoying themselves, and the moment the door was opened, it became quiet.

At the dinner table, there was a young man in a suit with a loose tie and a head of milky white hair. His eyes were one part rebellious, two parts contemptuous and sarcastic, and three parts careless, like a proudly blooming flower. Luoyang White Peony.There is a shy girl in his arms, holding a red wine glass in his hand. I don't know whether it is the wine on his head or the enthusiasm of the girl in his arms. The boy's face is blushing.

The sunset-like blush was rippling on his cheeks, but he turned pale the moment he opened the door.

In front of the door, the man in the straight suit jacket was none other than the man he was dreaming of, Li Changfeng.

Li Changfeng

He is back.

Li Changfeng

came back.

Bailang confirmed again

Bailang silently recited his name over and over again in his heart. If the red wine glass hadn't slipped and fell to the ground, he would have thought he was daydreaming again.

Strange to say, the room was full of people of all kinds, but Li Changfeng saw Bailang sitting beside him at a glance.

The moment their eyes met, it was as if time stood still.

It wasn't until he saw the girl in his arms that Li Changfeng looked back.

After all these years, he still hasn't changed a bit.

The wine glass fell to pieces, and everyone followed his gaze. Qin Jiuye smiled and said, "Why? Young Master Bai knows him?"

"I don't know." Before Bailang could speak, Li Changfeng refused.

Bai Lang sneered, "Yes, how could a person like me know such a high-ranking official as Professor Li? Naturally, Bai can't afford it."

"Since you don't know him, how do you know he is Professor Li?" the girl in his arms joked.

"Messy" Bailang patted her plump buttocks, "Go, get me another cup"

"I hate it~" The girl's coquettish flower language aroused goosebumps all over Yuan Shuai.

Bailang only knew that Gentiana Qin had organized a dinner party, saying that there was a doctoral professor who was famous overseas, surnamed Li, who was a specially-appointed professor of the Ivy League in M ​​country. The character deserves Qin Gentiana to mobilize people like this, but he didn't expect this person to be him.

In the past five years, Bailang has thought about many possible scenes of reuniting with him, but he never imagined that it would be like this.

Qin Geng laughed, "Hahahaha, since I don't know each other, I'll be an intermediary today. Let me introduce you. This is Li Changfeng, a professor of cellular immunity and microbiology at Ivy League University in M ​​country. He is a rare talent. Everyone Everyone calls him Professor Li, you can also call him Professor Li, but he should not be a few years older than you; that is Yuan Shuai, the CEO and CEO of Jichuang Technology Co., Ltd."

"This is Bailang, the only son of Bai Shixiong, the richest man in Melting City, from the Bai Family Group."

"Hello, Young Master Bai, my name is Yuan Shuai, and I am the CEO and CEO of Rongcheng Jichuang Technology Co., Ltd. It is my honor to know you." Yuan Shuai enthusiastically extended his hand of friendship, but... …

"Hello, Professor Li." Bailang got up and grabbed Li Changfeng's big cold hand. "Having heard about your name for a long time, seeing it once is better than hearing it a hundred times. I still have a lot of questions that I would like to ask Professor Li for advice, and I hope that Professor Li can give me some advice."

Fuck, I heard that Young Master Bai doesn't take hard things, and only cares about the things he is interested in. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation. Yuan Shuai retracted his frustrated hand as if nothing had happened.

"Young Master Bai, you're being polite." Li Changfeng wanted to withdraw his hand, but he held it tightly, with no intention of letting go.

"Come on, you still ask other professors for advice even if you haven't graduated from a university? Who doesn't know how careful you are?" Huang Zheng on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and ruthlessly exposed him while gnawing on a chicken leg. .

It's no secret that Young Master Bai eats both men and women. At first, he attracted much attention because he was the only son of Bai Shixiong, the richest man in Melting City, but what really made people talk about it was his sharp facial features and beautiful appearance , For this reason, he has also made many headlines, and his popularity is no worse than that of the popular traffic niche.

"Then tell me, what's on my mind?" Bailang just looked at Huang Zheng silently, his face was written all over: "Fatty man, I'll tear down Lao Tzu's platform and let you go drink Northwest Wind."Huang Zheng tactfully closed his voice.

"Hahahaha, young people, you should communicate more," Qin Geng said with a smile, "Professor Li has also worked hard all day, let's have something to eat first, and let's talk about the cooperation when we are full."

Gentiana Qin asked to be seated, and Bai Lang reluctantly let go, not caring about the fiery gazes of everyone present.

As soon as Li Changfeng sat down, the maids brought new dishes. The moment the lid was opened, Li Changfeng's smiling face turned pale instantly.

Snake blood bibimbap, bat soup, braised pangolin, spicy civet, charcoal grilled bamboo rat, drunken shrimp...

What a visual and taste feast

There was a table full of game feasts, and everyone raised their chopsticks to feast on it. Satisfied, they did not forget to say some compliments.

Qin Gentiana looked at the crowd who were feasting, with smiles all over their folds.

"Why doesn't Professor Li not move his chopsticks? Is it not to your liking?" Bailang drank his drink, and then saw the indifferent Li Changfeng.

"If I remember correctly, the pangolin should be a first-class national protected wild animal, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the once lively attic room became quiet again in an instant.

Gentiana Qin's complexion was particularly ugly, and he had a constipated face in an instant.

"Professor Li is indeed well-informed, but there is still a difference between wild and domesticated ones," Bailang said.

"The growth of pangolins requires a suitable environment with a temperature above 25°C. my country belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate, and there is no space suitable for their natural growth. Besides, as a cave-dwelling animal and anteater, I have never heard of any successful domestication in China." example?"

Li Changfeng did not back down at all.Gentiana Qin even had a face that aggravated constipation.

"Ahem, don't get me wrong, Mr. Yuan." Yuan Shuai hastily corrected the situation, "He means that the taste of this pangolin is extremely delicious, and he just wants to know where to buy such a super delicacy in the world, hehehe~"

"No, I'm not interested in these," Li Changfeng continued, "Not only pangolins, but also bats and civet cats that carry many viral microorganisms. You don't know that the SARS-like coronavirus in 2000 was passed by horseshoe bats. The intermediate host civets transmitted the virus to humans, right?"

For a moment, Yuan Shuai wanted to rush up and cover his mouth, big brother, please stop talking, if you keep talking, Lao Tzu's cooperation plan to make a fortune will be ruined 555555...

However, Li Changfeng turned a blind eye to his crazy suggestion, and continued, "There are also uncooked drunk shrimps, the concentration of alcohol is far from killing the parasites in the shrimp body, the Clonorchis sinensis parasitic in the shrimp body and tapeworms will parasitize in the human body through the fecal-oral route, and finally the human body will die due to liver fluke disease or parasitic translocation”

Hearing this, Huang Pang vomited out the drunken shrimp that had been chewed and was about to be swallowed.

"Damn, are you disgusting?" Bai Lang looked disgusted.

"No way, I don't want to die, I haven't eaten enough yet"

Bailang: ...

"If there is no business, there will be no killing, let alone getting angry. Everyone understands the truth, so why take the risk and have to taste this wild game?"

"Mr. Qin kindly invited Mr. Li to come over for dinner. It's fine if Mr. Li doesn't reward you, but I still need this lecture. I think my temple is too small to accommodate a Buddha like you, right?"

"It's not preaching, it's just a kind reminder. If Mr. Qin wants to go his own way, I can't help it. If that's the case, Li won't disturb everyone's leisure and elegance. Let's leave."

"My, my, this,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,," Yuan Shuai was confused, so he left? ? ?What about getting rich overnight? ? ? ?

"I'm very sorry Mr. Qin. He just returned to China. He is not used to many things and is not sensible. Don't be as knowledgeable as him. I will go back and persuade him. Don't be angry."

"No need, I think he has a very hard temper." Qin Geng said disdainfully, "In my opinion, let's stop here for the cooperation."

Damn, these two really don't get along, other people eat to promote their relationship, but he is a good couple, he can eat up the cooperation after a meal.Yuan Shuai scolded his father in his heart but smiled along with him.

"Okay, then if there is a chance for cooperation in the future, Mr. Jia will contact me again, then I will say goodbye first, goodbye!" Yuan Shuai hurriedly caught up with Li Changfeng.

"I really don't know how to flatter you, hum!"

Qin Gentiana dropped the chopsticks, and the eyebrows and beards were crossed in anger. The guests who were singing, dancing, and feasting on the feast lost their interest in an instant, and a gluttonous feast of wild game disappeared.

Only Bailang sitting on the side was like a Luoyang white peony, gently shaking the red wine glass, thoughtful, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Do you think you are awesome, awesome, the kind of people's hero?"

"It's okay, at least it's a positive character"

"Fuck, are you out of your mind? I asked you to come to dinner to discuss business, not to be an ambassador for wildlife protection to spread positive energy. Why are you so upset with money?"

"He is not a good person, and it may not be a good thing to cooperate with him"

"You don't care if he is a good person, as long as he can make money, he will kill people and kill people, that's none of our business." Yuan Shuai didn't say anything, "Besides, who can be a really good person these days? Who is not a wolf with a big tail in a mask? No one can see if you get close."

"Okay." Li Changfeng lit a cigarette for him, "Smoking a cigarette to calm down."

Seeing that Yuan Shuai didn't respond, Li Changfeng said, "Whether it's Master Qin or those gangsters, I don't want to get too close to them."

"They?" Yuan Shuai frowned, thoughtfully, and slowed down his driving speed, "Do you know Bailang?"

Li Changfeng rolled down the car window, exhaled a long puff of smoke, and it took him a long time to let out a word from his throat, "Yeah".

Yuan Shuai seldom saw such a deep Li Changfeng. He and he met when they were studying abroad. Although they were not in the same major and the same tutor, they came from the same country and the same skin color. Of course, most importantly, He is handsome!The two hit it off and called each other brothers. It wasn't until a few years ago that he graduated and returned to China, and Li Changfeng continued to study abroad for scientific research. Their contact was less, but at least every time Yuan Shuai saw Li Changfeng was shining, with his own halo, showing his sharpness. It was the first time he had seen such a deep Li Changfeng.

"You...what's the relationship?" Yuan Shuai glanced at him cautiously, and quickly changed the subject if the situation was wrong.

Li Changfeng paused for a few seconds, then said slowly, "First love"
