Chapter 103 Return to Northern Frontier
Chapter 103 Return to Northern Frontier
However, Qin Yueran didn't care about Nan Muchen's slightly perfunctory words.
The reason why she came back was that she felt that the other party was still useful to her. It would not be a wise decision for her not to leave now.
In any case, Nan Muchen was still very happy to see Qin Yueran coming back, and she didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
That day Qin Yueran decided to have a good talk with the other party. She felt that now was not the best time to return to Beijing.
"Mu Chen, I think we should continue to develop in the Northern Frontier?"
"Although Mu Ze has lost some of the support of the people, it has not yet reached the final stage, and there are still people supporting him."
"If you go back now, even if you succeed in forcing the emperor to abdicate, you will be cursed for eternity."
"I hope you can think about it carefully."
Nan Muchen also thought that what she said was right, but he wanted to end it quickly and take Qin Yueran back to be together openly.
Although Qin Yueran felt that he was lying, he knew that he was telling the truth and he really did like her.
But since Qin Yueran said so, Nan Muchen decided to listen to her.
So when Qin Yuran asked him to go back and think about it, he immediately agreed to return to Northern Xinjiang.
This made Qin Yuran really stunned for a moment. After all, she had thought of many words to persuade the other party, but before she could use them, the other party agreed.
If I had known it was so simple, I could have just said a few words. Why would I have to do so many things?
Since the decision had been made, there was no need to delay any longer. The next morning, they both got up early and headed back.
They did not bring many soldiers back this time. After all, they had sneaked out and it was just right for them to go back secretly.
It is about five days' journey from here to the Northern Frontier. They will pass through several cities along the way, but both of them intend to hide their identities, so they did not stay in any city for too long.
However, on the fourth day, Qin Yuran really couldn't stand it anymore. She hadn't taken a shower in this weather for several days, and she felt like she was about to stink.
So they moved into the nearest city, called Qingfeng City.
Because this place is relatively close to the northern border, there are not many people coming here to travel or do business. Most of the people in the city are locals, and the customs of the people are relatively simple.
There are only two inns in the entire city, and both of them are also restaurants. If they were just inns, they would have closed down long ago.
After all, there are still people coming to this restaurant to eat. No matter what time it is, there are always people who don't want to cook at home and want to eat out.
After Qin Yueran arrived at the inn, he directly asked for two upper rooms and started chatting with the owner.
"Uncle, business is not good here, right? Not many people are eating here at this time."
When the other party heard Qin Yueran's words, he also responded with a smile, "Girl, I can tell at a glance that you are an outsider."
"We all eat two meals here in the lab, so this is not meal time."
"If the inn is still like this at dinner time, then we are indeed not far from closing."
After hearing what he said, Qin Yueran smiled and waved her hands, "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else, I'm just asking out of curiosity."
"I see. Then can you cook at this time? We just got here and haven't eaten yet."
The shop owner looked at the two and nodded, "You can cook now, but the chef is taking a break, so we can only cook some home-cooked dishes. Do you think it's okay?"
Yue Ran immediately became interested when she heard it. The master chef was taking a break, so could she do it herself?
She hasn't cooked for a long time, but her cooking skills are still there. It's no problem for her to make a few side dishes to satisfy her appetite.
When the store owner heard that she wanted to cook by herself, he hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed. It was okay for her to cook by herself as long as she didn't damage anything.
If she didn't do it, he would have to go himself. After all, their chef was his wife, and she was having lunch at the moment, so he didn't dare to go to find her.
Then Yue Ran went upstairs to put down her things and came to the kitchen.
Although this place is not particularly big, it is still very clean. It seems that the person who originally cooked was also a very neat person.
Qin Yueran had been eating too light food recently, which she didn't like. It happened that she was cooking today, so she decided to make some spicy dishes.
As for Nan Muchen, he should be able to eat spicy food. I didn’t see any reaction from him when he ate spicy food before.
So Qin Yueran started to make her lunch with peace of mind.
Soon, bursts of aroma wafted out from the kitchen, and even Nan Muchen, who was sitting in the hall waiting, couldn't help but sniff.
This tastes so good, so fragrant!
The owner was also attracted by the aroma and asked, "Girl, what did you make? It looks delicious."
Qin Yueran also found it very funny to see the owner's eyes almost falling into her plate of food.
But she was not stingy. She took out a small bowl next to her and peeled some vegetables for him, letting him taste it himself.
Although the store owner felt a little embarrassed, the dish was so delicious that he took the bowl and started eating with big mouthfuls.
While eating, he commented, "Girl, your dish is so delicious. It feels better than what my wife cooks."
"You don't know who my old lady is? I haven't introduced her to you, but she is the head chef of our restaurant, and she's very capable too."
"Hiss, the food you cooked is delicious, but it's too spicy."
“It smells nice when you first eat it, but after you swallow it, the spiciness is all you can taste.”
"you……"
Before the shopkeeper could finish his words, a woman's voice came from behind him.
"What is this made of? It smells so good, I was attracted by the aroma even when I was sleeping."
Qin Yueran looked in the direction of the voice and found a beautiful woman standing at the kitchen door.
Qin Yueran had met many women, but this woman was indeed very beautiful and worthy of the title of beauty.
But from what she said, it seemed that she was the proprietress here. However, Qin Yueran looked at her, and then at the smiling shop owner standing next to her. How could these two people seem to be a strange match?
It feels like there's more than ten years difference in age between them. I never realized the owner is so capable.
Obviously, Qin Yueran was not the first person to have this expression when seeing the two of them, so the other party did not have any excessive emotional changes.
Just like the owner, he came in and stared at the dishes she cooked.
Qin Yuran had no choice but to peel off another half and hand it to the other party.
