Chapter 125 It's New Year's Eve!

On New Year's Eve, the scene Song Yin was looking forward to the most finally happened.

Because he got the notice from Qi Zhengnan in advance, when it was time to go to bed, he deliberately did not close the floor-to-ceiling curtains.When lying in bed and doing "before bedtime exercise", I always lose my mind frequently and pay attention to the window.After the exercise was over, he just stared at the window in a daze, until Qi Zhengnan forced him to turn around and pressed his head into his arms, and he was barely coaxed to sleep.

But it didn't seem long before he opened his sleepy eyes again, quietly turned around in Qi Zhengnan's arms who was still sleeping soundly, and secretly looked out the window.

There is no wind, no birds and insects, and the days and nights in the safe house have always been very quiet.But at this moment, this tranquility is quietly changing——

Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows with red window grilles, he found that the sky of Purgatory had turned a lotus gray, covered with dense clouds.The heavy snow that is boiling under the clouds has already painted the terrace outside the window into plain white.

"It's really snowing..."

He murmured, feeling a little unbelievable—in the past few months, he was used to seeing the cloudless blue sky and the mechanical rigidity of the Arsha system; even though he was somewhat mentally prepared for it now, when he actually saw the snowflakes In an instant, the heart was still beating violently.

Yes, this is the feeling of living in the world.

"I didn't lie to you, did I?" A slightly lazy voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Song Yin looked back and found that Qi Zhengnan was also awake, propping his head on one hand, looking at himself leisurely.

"You didn't lie to me, it's really cold." Song Yin shrank into her lover's arms, and at the same time gave up her eyes to watch the snow scene, "This snow is quite heavy, how long will it be?"

"I didn't notice. Every year between New Year's Day and New Year's Eve, votes are held on the forum, and everyone decides the temperature, the degree and duration of snow conditions. If you are curious, you can check the voting results online."

"...Why is there still such a thing?"

Song Yin laughed lightly, and at the same time felt a malicious hand from the back of his waist to his groin.

Since the establishment of the relationship, Song Yin has always accepted all the invitations from Qi Zhengnan.Sometimes they can play hard, and they can pester each other to fight again after the refractory period of each other has passed.

But today is different - today is the Chinese New Year, and there are still many things to do today.

After sternly rejecting her lover's courtship, Song Yin hurriedly put on the clothes she bought a few days ago before she regretted it—after all, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, no matter where she was, a new set of clothes and pants always It is inevitable.

When he finished washing, Qi Zhengnan had already left the bed and was arranging his shirt in front of the French window.Although the outside is freezing and snowy, the indoor temperature remains constant.Although it saved a lot of things, it was also complained by many southern executives, saying that the winter when they were young was not like this.

After the two of them finished washing and tidying up, they were ready to go downstairs to the dining room.However, just as Song Yin opened the door with a gap, he heard a roar of "Woo", and a super invincible cold wind swirled into his arms.

He froze for a moment, then silently closed the door again.

"That's right, it's the real Dongdong Dongdong..."

They later learned that because the "snow conditions" during the Spring Festival last year were too gentle, the executives who participated in the voting this year retaliated collectively.If this had to be changed in the real world, it would definitely be the kind of snowstorm that would freeze people to death.

Although it only takes a minute to run from upstairs to downstairs, considering other needs, the two of them spent a little more time and bought a full set of cold-proof clothes, hats, scarves and gloves in the mall—— And there are three sets.

The goods were delivered in a blink of an eye, and they helped each other to dress neatly, then took the rest of the clothes and pushed the door out again.

The cold wind was still howling, but this time it was unable to penetrate the thick clothing.

On the half-open corridor, there is already a thin layer of snow.The two tightly wrapped people leaned against each other, carefully stepped on the crunching fresh snow, and walked downstairs step by step.

The small garden on the first floor is already covered in silver.The flowers, trees, and outdoor seats were all buried in the thick snow blanket.Song Yin murmured that he could make a big snowball in the yard, and was obediently led by Qi Zhengnan into the dining room.

The room on the first floor was also well heated, and their assistants, Ergou and Erhu, were already waiting downstairs.Song Yin first handed the big bag of clothes to Ergou, and told him to keep warm when he went out later.

"Go out? Keep warm?" Ergou said that he had not received any tasks that required going out to complete.

"This afternoon, we will all go to Yugutai's lair to celebrate the New Year together." Song Yin said, "You, me, Brother Nan and Kitty."

"Auxiliary officers are going too?" Ergou said that he had never heard of it.

"This is Yugutai's tradition." Erhu proudly puffed out his small chest.

"But I'm not Yu Gutai's assistant officer." Ergou likes to dig into corners.

"I didn't say that only people from Yugutai can go. Look, I'm fine. Why are you hesitating?!" Song Yin patted him on the shoulder and told him not to worry, "I heard Sha Frye will also be there, as well as his aides. Besides, it’s the New Year’s Eve, so it’s lively when there are many people.”

Anyway, Ergou had to go if he didn't go, Song Yin teased him a little more, and then turned his attention back to the serious business.

Since it is New Year's Eve, a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner is naturally indispensable.According to Yu Gutai's long-standing custom, the meal on the eve of the New Year's Eve cannot be ordered to take away, but must be cooked by oneself.

Although there is also a kitchen in Yugutai's combat preparation room, it will be crowded and messy, and the Kung Fu dishes will take time to prepare.So everyone agreed that the hard dishes can be prepared at home first, but those like deep-fried stir-fry, which are hot and fast, must be made on the spot.

According to the results discussed by Yu Gutai team members when they were bored, this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner requires a total of 14 dishes, including three dishes of each of the three cold dishes, three vegetarian dishes, three half-meat dishes, three meat dishes, and Two of the heaviest hard dishes.In addition to this time, there are sweets and snacks, as well as some drinks, all of which will be decided by lottery.

It sounds like fun, but it's actually... a bit risky.Because among the five members of the Yugutai team, there are not only culinary experts like bison, but also cooking idiots like pika and Zhenzhe who can't cook by themselves and don't let the assistant officer intervene to help.

The results of the lottery for this year's New Year's Eve dinner were released a few days ago. Qi Zhengnan and Song Yin were allocated one vegetarian dish, two meat dishes, one hard dish, and one dessert.The task seems a bit heavy, but it is a rare and interesting thing to be completed by two people and the assistant officer.

The two executives took off their bloated coats again, and helped each other put on the aprons with Pokemon patterns on them. Before the official start, Song Yin couldn't help asking: "I'm curious, what did you get last year?"

"I made a cold salad and a hot pot of instant noodles." Qi Zhengnan answered without changing his expression.

Song Yin can understand the cold salad. After all, Qi Zhengnan's knife skills are not bad. Buy a bunch of fruits and vegetables, cut them, and then pour a bunch of salad dressing on it.But what is instant noodle hot pot?

"Just buy a box of instant noodles, boil the noodles, put seasonings in it, and then add a few eggs, chopped green onions, luncheon meat, and shredded cheese. The taste is pretty good."

Qi Zhengnan replied solemnly: "At least Mithril and the others have agreed."

"..." They actually recognized you because you are the captain, right? !Song Yin couldn't help but slander, and at the same time decided to help Qi Zhengnan this year, to make up for the face of cooking.

The content of the five-course meal was decided early on.Among them, there is only one meat dish and other semi-finished raw materials that need to be prepared in advance at home.

Song Yin, who seldom cooks since coming to Purgatory, took on the posture of a chef for a long time.Work was quickly assigned to the remaining three.

Ergou is responsible for processing the big tiger prawns bought from the mall, trimming off the tentacles and feet, opening the back to remove the mud tendons, and then marinating them with garlic and coarse salt.

Qi Zhengnan was in charge of peeling the lilies, and then handling the celery and cashew nuts.

As for the two tigers, it is indeed inconvenient for the assistant officer in the form of a cat to do things. Song Yin thought about it and let him stand by for the time being.

"I can also help with more things." The little cat made a dissatisfied voice, "Please be sure to arrange a job for me too."

Immediately afterwards, before Song Yin could explain, the kitten jumped to the back of the sofa, and after a while, half of its head slowly emerged from the back of the sofa.

"Um?!!"

Song Yin and Qi Zhengnan were stunned at the same time.

Erhu's cat's head is still rising, but that kind of posture is by no means something a cat can do.Soon, Erhu's entire head protruded from the back of the sofa, but what was connected to it was a human neck! !

What kind of trouble is this? !Both executives were deeply shocked.

I saw that the sleek big orange cat was gone, replaced by a short man in a suit and leather shoes from the neck down, and above the neck was still a fluffy cat with the head of a cat.

"My God..." Half an onion in Song Yin's hand rolled onto the cooking table, tears streaming down his face, "Er Hu... have you changed your look?"

"It's what you said, I can change my appearance at will." Erhu mentioned the transformation coupon, "I thought about it, and it really is more convenient for the human body to do things."

"Maybe you can change your head into a human appearance." Qi Zhengnan suggested, but added a patch: "Of course, it's just a suggestion. After all, the final appearance is still up to you to decide."

"It's pretty good now." Ergou commented solemnly.

"..." Gouzi, are you serious?Song Yin simply wondered if there was something wrong with his assistant officer's receptors for "aesthetics".

"I know that the human face is a very important organ, and I also know that a cat's head matches a human body, which looks very strange." Erhu responded to everyone's confused eyes, "But I changed a human body out of necessity. .But I don’t know what I need to look like. There doesn’t seem to be much difference between a cat’s head and a human’s head.”

"You can become what you want." Song Yin suggested, "If you like double eyelids, let yourself become double eyelids; if you like black skin, let yourself become black. Do what you like , not what needs to be done, that is the greatest freedom and happiness.”

"It sounds like plastic surgery for you humans." Ergou started his magical comment again, "But many humans seem to think that it is immoral to pursue this kind of freedom and happiness."

"That kind of people just let them rot at the bottom of the well?" Song Yin clicked his tongue, then raised his hand and touched Ergou's head maliciously, "Do you know, Gouzi? In fact, sometimes, I think kobolds are actually quite suitable for you."

The handsome assistant officer calmly refused: "No, thank you. I find that I am quite satisfied with my current appearance."

Erhu didn't decide what his human head would look like until the end, but Qi Zhengnan said that he could have unlimited time to think about this issue.So when the clock on the wall slowly moved towards twelve noon, the work in the kitchen continued.

The author has something to say:

Erhu: No one buys me winter clothes? !

Qi Zhengnan: Your hair is so long, if you wear winter clothes, you will suffer from heat stroke

Erhu: But my jiojio is cold

Song Yin: The coat I bought for Ergou has a hood, you can just squat in his hood later

Ergou: Come on.

Erhu: Whose cat am I? !

Song Yin: If you have something to say, say it well, don't transform! !
