Dance

"I'll have clam noodles, with shrimp," Miao Yingying was ordering.

"I want sizzling steak fried rice," Bai Hui said.

Just as the two were about to order, they saw An Nuan and Liu Chang'an. Miao Yingying waved and gestured for them to sit down.

"What a coincidence."

I just finished playing volleyball.

"Oh right, An Nuan still has ball games."

"I was dragged out by Miao Yingying."

Gao Dewei yawned and laughed in surprise, "I was just saying I'd like to invite you two to my house sometime. Miao Yingying and Bai Hui only know how to eat all day; I can't get along with them."

"I was just giving your parents face; they were so enthusiastic!" Miao Yingying explained shyly.

"I'm here with Miao Yingying!" Bai Hui actually secretly helped out as well. She was Miao Yingying's best friend, so of course she would lend a hand when Miao Yingying was slow to realize what was happening.

"Didn't you say you wanted to organize another class reunion before the college entrance exam results came out?" An Nuan looked at Bai Hui and enthusiastically suggested, "How about Gao Dewei's house? His house is huge."

"I went," Bai Hui nodded. "That day, Gao Dewei invited Liu Chang'an to his house, and I was there too."

"I know, Liu Chang'an told me, and even sent me photos of you rowing." An Nuan smiled calmly.

"Liu Chang'an is really good at rowing, it's a pity I dragged him down."

"Yes, kayaking requires perfect teamwork; you can't just find anyone to partner with."

"We practiced for a while, and Liu Chang'an taught us quite well. I didn't expect Liu Chang'an to be so familiar with Gao Dewei's house. When we went to pick vegetables together, I tested him several times, and he couldn't stump me."

"That's why I like Liu Chang'an."

The conversation abruptly ended, but An Nuan remained composed. She casually glanced at the food ordering bar on the table and asked, "Have you ordered yet? Let's order together."

Miao Yingying turned her head slowly and made eye contact with Gao Dewei, only to find that Gao Dewei was looking at the menu on An Nuan's phone, completely unaware of the fierce and subtle exchanges that had taken place in their previous conversation, which were ultimately defeated by An Nuan's decisive move.

Bai Hui's cheeks flushed red. "An Nuan, what do you mean by that? You like Liu Chang'an, that's none of your business. Who told you this?"

"Liu Chang'an, let's have two lamb legs and ten skewers of crocodile meat." Gao Dewei made his selection.

"Okay, a few more glasses of juice, what would you like to drink?" Liu Chang'an looked up at the girls.

"I'll drink bayberry juice!" Miao Yingying said softly.

"Then let's make them all bayberry juice," Bai Hui said, composed herself.

"I'll have sweet wine; I don't really like sour things." An Nuan then asked Bai Hui and Miao Yingying what they wanted for their main course and placed the order.

The lamb leg that Gao Dewei mentioned is actually the lamb shank, with the lamb tendon meat attached. It is first soaked in cold water and then boiled in hot water. The initial method is similar to the lamb head meat that Liu Chang'an makes, except that after it is cooked, it is also braised with dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, scallions, ginger, bay leaves, Sichuan peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves, rock sugar, etc., and then roasted on a rack.

Not every type of meat is suitable for cooking in the freshest and most original way. Lamb has its own way of being prepared, and this roasted lamb leg is a flavor that is more suitable for the Volkswagen.

"I'll post a survey in the group and see how many people participate," Bai Hui brought up the matter again.

"The key is to communicate with Uncle Gao in advance, ask about the venue and costs, and whether there are many or few people, we always want to get together." An Nuan nodded.

Bai Hui and An Nuan have always been the organizers of class activities. When they spoke seriously, there was no more veiled hostility in their words.

"I reckon it'll be hard for us to get together again after the results come out," Gao Dewei sighed softly. "Let's waive the venue fee for this event. I've sponsored all the fruits, vegetables, pork, lamb, fish, and other ingredients. This is our last time as classmates in three years, why should we charge you? See if you need anything else. If we don't have it, we can discuss and buy it ourselves."

"Oh no, that won't do, it's a huge sum of money." Miao Yingying glared at Gao Dewei.

"I'll take charge of the cooking." Liu Chang'an habitually accepted the task.

"Okay, let's charter a car and meet at the entrance of the Affiliated High School high school before setting off," An Nuan said to Bai Hui. She knew Gao Dewei 'Gao Dewei personality and abilities, so there was no need to be polite with him.

"Then I'll explain in the group chat first that this event is sponsored by the tycoon Gao Dewei," Bai Hui said with a smile, secretly cursing Miao Yingying, that brat, now she knows which side to take.

"Landlords are the real tycoons," Liu Chang'an said, patting Gao Dewei on the shoulder.

"You and An Nuan stay overnight, we'll play mahjong all night," Gao Dewei suggested. "That'll be a true test of skill."

"You three are playing mahjong? Three-player mahjong? That's no fun. Four-player mahjong is more challenging." Bai Hui wasn't a mahjong expert, but she knew this much.

"Three experts playing against one ordinary person is very difficult, you know?" Gao Dewei waved his hand and explained smugly, "If you're playing against experts, your opponents won't play recklessly. They can calculate their moves and wins with precision, which is the fun of mahjong. But if an idiot sneaks in and just randomly plays and calls, it becomes very difficult for the other three to calculate the cards, you know?"

"My team with Bai Hui is not as good as your team alone?" Miao Yingying was very unconvinced.

"It can't compare." Liu Chang'an shook his head. "But since we're just playing, let's play with four people. Three people can't handle it, and it'll be too deadly in a fight."

"Since Liu Chang'an is speaking up for you, then come at me. Last time we fought, it was just me and Liu Chang'an messing around," Gao Dewei said nonchalantly.

"I heard you made Bai Hui and Miao Yingying dance all night last time," An Nuan said with a smile, not meaning anything by it, she just thought it was fun.

Miao Yingying and Bai Hui were both a little embarrassed, but even more eager to redeem themselves.

"An Nuan, can you dance?" Gao Dewei asked. "Bai Hui and Miao Yingying were dancing in their pajamas; people would think they were shamans."

"Was that shamanistic dancing?" Bai Hui didn't want to lose face in front of An Nuan. "I danced 'Sending My Wishes to the Moon,' 'Gods Drifting with the Current,' 'Green Snake,' 'Pure Land of Bliss,' 'Wing Chun'... Go check which dance looks like shamanistic dancing."

"What kind of dance do you like me to do?" An Nuan looked at Liu Chang'an. "I want to learn."

Let's tango.

"Tango is danced by two people." Bai Hui thought that Liu Chang'an wasn't familiar with everything.

"Yeah, it's never as fun as dancing together as it is with one person watching." Liu Chang'an smiled.

"Ugh, I'm not dancing with you." An Nuan turned her head away, looking slightly embarrassed.

The juice was served, and Bai Hui lowered her head and drank it. Why was today's bayberry juice so sour? Didn't the juicer add more sugar?

Thank you everyone for your support.
