Life as a Landlord in Global Games

Chapter 90 Late Night Snack

That night,

Jiang Ke was leaning on his arms and looking at the ceiling in a daze.

"Hey, this seems to be the first time I've spent the night outside. I'm really not used to it without the night light in the apartment."

She sighed, turned over, and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.

Normally, the air-conditioning in an apartment is not as straightforward as an air conditioner.

That is the temperature most suitable for human life.

Especially since she doesn't feel safe here. She is absolutely invincible in the apartment and there is no danger at all.

When she was chatting with Qin Yun this afternoon, she saw a monster take shape in front of her eyes... and then was killed by the latter in an understatement.

It's scary but not scary, just a bit surprising.

After tossing and turning, she finally sat up.

Although she only needed a thought to open the door and return to the apartment. However, this was her first destination, and it would be too embarrassing to go back like this.

"Tuk Tuk~"

Suddenly, a rhythmic knock on the door sounded.

"Jiang Ke, are you asleep?"

Qin Yun's voice sounded.

Jiang Ke hesitated for a moment, then got up and opened the door.

Qin Yun was wearing a silk nightgown outside the door. Although she was not as beautiful as she was during the day, she was still a "Sleeping Beauty" even with dark circles under her eyes.

"I knew you weren't asleep yet." Qin Yun grinned and handed the small cup he was holding to Jiang Ke.

"Here, would you like to have a drink and go for a walk with me?"

Jiang Ke looked at the blood-red liquid in the glass and was about to politely refuse. Qin Yun seemed to see her hesitation and added:

"Cocktail, I made this myself. The alcohol content is not high."

Now that the conversation has come to this point, it seems inappropriate to refuse any more. Jiang Ke took the cup and took a brief sip.

There is no spicy taste in the mouth as expected, but a sweet fruity taste, which tastes a bit like...

"Pomegranate?"

"You're quite knowledgeable. This is made from the pomegranate juice I finally saved."

Qin Yun smiled proudly, "Let's go, follow me to a good place~"

"good."

Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Jiang Ke agreed and followed her out of here.

There were only a few street lights on in the gathering place at night. Occasionally, they met people patrolling, but they just watched from a distance and did not come to disturb Qin Yun.

I guess he must be used to Qin Yun traveling at night like this.

“It’s a little cooler at night.

Alas, staying in an air-conditioned room every day makes me really miss the days when I could enjoy the cool breeze and barbecue skewers with my friends at night.”

Qin Yun walked slowly and said:

"There is a nice little restaurant in the gathering place, perfect for a late-night snack."

"That's good, I'm hungry too."

Jiang Ke nodded, and then said doubtfully:

"Do you often go out at night like this?"

"It's not often, it happens every day."

"every day?"

"Yes, do you think I am the master of this gathering place?"

"There shouldn't be any doubt about this, right?"

Jiang Ke frowned. The people she saw in her previous life and now were all respectful to Qin Yun, and they obviously respected her from the bottom of their hearts.

This should not be faked.

In response, Qin Yun just sneered.

"Haha~"

In these two short words, Jiang Ke was keenly aware of her helplessness and unspeakable forbearance. But the latter obviously had no intention of saying anything—or rather, she had no intention of saying it here.

She could only follow behind, following Qin Yun through a street and into a small alley.

Deep in the alley there was a door that was ajar, and a slightly dim light came from inside.

Qin Yun waved to Jiang Ke to follow. She carefully opened the door and entered first.

Jiang Ke followed closely behind.

This is a late-night canteen. The small store is filled with dim and warm lights, and several exquisite tables and chairs are randomly placed in every corner of the store. There are not many people sitting in the store, but there are still two or three people there late at night.

, should not be too little.

"Hey, Xiaoyun...you brought a friend with you today?"

The owner is a gray-haired man who is obviously quite old. He has a muscular body and a chef's uniform that looks like a tights on his body.

He looked at Jiang Ke with a smile, and suddenly hit his head:

"You are the Jiang Ke that Cui Jue mentioned, right?"

"Hello, hello, I'm Jiang Ke."

Although Jiang Ke wondered why he knew her, it wasn't surprising to hear him call Qin Yun Xiaoyun...

Don't there often be plots in movies and TV series about someone who was once a gangster or someone who after seeing all the vicissitudes of life opened a small shop in a certain place and enjoyed a leisurely life?

"Jiang Ke, are you used to beef soup?"

the man asked.

Ah? Drinking beef soup late at night, and it’s still so hot? Jiang Ke complained in his heart, but on the surface he still smiled gracefully:

"I'm used to drinking. I'm not picky about food."

"That's good. You sit down first and I'll bring it to you."

The man chuckled and walked to the kitchen at the back of the store, while Qin Yun took Jiang Ke and found a corner to sit down.

"Uncle Hui's beef soup is excellent. Fortunately, there is a herd of cattle near the gathering place, otherwise it would be a pity to lose this delicious soup."

Qin Yun looked expectant, obviously he really liked the beef offal soup made by Uncle Hui.

"I also have some fruit here, which can be regarded as pre-dinner fruit."

Jiang Ke dug in his pocket and took out a bag of strawberries.

Each of these strawberries is as big as a baby's hand, and is smooth and round. Just taking it out already exudes a fragrant aroma unique to strawberries.

Qin Yun was not polite, picked up one and ate one.

"This strawberry flavor is much better than the hundreds of boxes I bought online before."

She praised:

"This tastes really good."

"It's good, just eat a few more."

Jiang Ke looked around. He was in the corner of the store. If he didn't speak loudly, he wouldn't be able to hear what the two of them were saying.

She knew clearly in her heart that this should be the place Qin Yun deliberately chose.

"Come on, come on!"

After waiting for a while, Uncle Hui came over carrying a big plate.

On the plate are two steaming bowls of beef soup with plenty of ingredients, as well as two large sesame cakes.

One bowl was filled with red spicy seeds, while the other bowl was completely empty.

"Try it. I don't know if you like spicy food. If you want spicy food, there's some on the table."

"Thank you, Uncle Hui!"

"It's okay, it's okay~"

Uncle Hui waved his hand, turned and left.

This style seems to be slightly similar to Qin Yun.

It shouldn't be an illusion.

After watching Uncle Hui leave, Jiang Ke looked at the large bowl of beef soup in front of him.

The soup has a slightly yellowish color and is filled with beef, shredded tofu, tofu, radish, coriander and chopped green onion.

This bowl is quite a lot, and once you finish it, you won’t have to think about breakfast tomorrow morning.

Jiang Ke took a spoon and took a bite. The taste was actually not strong, just fresh and salty. It probably meant that the beef bone soup was boiled and some salt was added before serving as side dishes.

As for the beef, it was very tender.

Overall it's pretty good, even comparable to the food produced in the apartment restaurant.

"This thing needs some chili pepper to make it taste better. It will taste even better if you tear the cake into pieces and soak it in!"

Qin Yun had already started drinking it happily, and sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.

"Have you already drank chili pepper?"

Jiang Ke looked at the bright red slice in her bowl, but had to admit that the red color looked really appetizing.

She simply picked up the chili jar on the side, scooped a spoonful of it into the bowl, and then tore up the sesame seed cakes and soaked them in it.

Seeing the soup turning bright red, she expressed her sorrow for her poor stomach, which had to bear such pressure so late at night.

"Beef soup is delicious with the addition of chili! This is the correct way to eat it!"

Qin Yun looked at Jiang Ke's movements, gave a thumbs up, and urged:

"Hurry up and try how it tastes."

Jiang Ke hesitated for half a second, then took a sip, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The taste after adding the chili peppers can really be said to be a qualitative change. The oily chili peppers are not as spicy as expected, but more fragrant. The sesame seed cakes soaked in soup are the finishing touch and full of flavor.

The only drawback is that in the hot summer, if you drink a bowl like this in the cold winter.

That's the real beauty.

Seeing Jiang Ke drinking happily, Qin Yun also started to drink heavily.

Even though she was eating so fast, she still maintained an elegant posture.

"Ah~ It's so comfortable."

Qin Yun ate the last piece of tofu and breathed a sigh of satisfaction.

"How about it? The place I brought you to is a good place, right?"

"...It's not bad, but I really can't finish it."

Jiang Ke rubbed his belly, a little worried about his weight. Especially when he looked at Qin Yun opposite, who often ate late night snacks and still had a perfect figure.

She was deeply worried.

"Forget it if you can't finish it. Eating forcefully is not good for your stomach."

Qin Yun glanced at Jiang Ke's bowl, first picked up the toothpick on the side and picked his teeth, and then glanced around the small canteen where no one was there anymore - the people who were eating before had left at some point.

She lay back and leaned directly against the wall. Her tone was a little lazy, like a cat that wanted to take a nap:

"Now that we've had enough wine and food, how about we talk about other things?"

Jiang Ke had indeed been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

She smiled and said:

"OK."
