"Are you talking about us?" Dong Qiangqiang was really surprised by Hualin's invitation. When he met Lao Bai just now, Lao Bai didn't reveal anything at all. He really thought he was just here for a simple meal.
"Lele and Lao Bai have known each other for a long time. It would be an honor for me if she is willing to be my bridesmaid." Hualing looked at Dong Qiangqiang with a smile, "Lao Bai has expressed to me many times that he hopes you will be my bridesmaid." His best man. You are so young, you are not married yet, right?" After saying that, she glanced at Tong Lele intentionally or unintentionally, as if to hint her something.
"It's also an honor for me." Tong Lele expressed her gratitude generously.
Dong Qiangqiang saw Lao Bai winking at him with a smirk in his eyes.
"I've never been a best man," Dong Qiangqiang explained bravely, "How about I be an on-site waiter or something for you? You can find a more suitable best man."
"We are not recruiting." Valin was amused by Dong Qiangqiang's poor excuse, "It doesn't matter experience, just good people will do."
"You think you can be my best man just because you're a human being?" Lao Bai pretended to be angry, "Just do it if I ask you to, what are you talking about?!"
Before Dong Qiangqiang could refuse again, Hua Ling immediately answered: "Then we have decided that after I finish the work at hand, I will tell you two about the specific arrangements next week. By the way, Lele, I will be there that day I fell in love with a wedding dress at the Lily Wedding Dress Shop in the city center. The style is very beautiful, but it is expensive, and if the skirt is changed to the big tail I want, it will cost more. Can you accompany me to see it someday when you are free? Look, give me some advice and give me some advice."
"I know that store," Tong Lele said hurriedly. "It has a lot of beautiful wedding dresses. I sometimes go there to shop..."
The two girls stepped aside muttering. Lao Bai waved his hand to Dong Qiangqiang and ordered: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and work in the house. Later we will make Zhu Dabai's dumplings. I will adjust the stuffing, and My face is yours."
"You were so strict just now," Dong Qiangqiang walked to the kitchen sink and sighed while rolling up his sleeves and washing his hands. "You should have told me first so that I could be prepared."
"Tell me first? I want you to prepare an excuse for not coming, right?" Lao Bai said as he poured a few bowls of noodles into a stainless steel basin, then pushed the basin in front of Dong Qiangqiang, "Add it yourself."
"I think it's better for you to discuss it with Hualing again," Dong Qiangqiang carefully added water to the noodles little by little, "I'm really not suitable."
Lao Bai threw the washed and selected cabbage leaves onto the chopping board, sharpened the knife in his hand, and asked while cutting: "Is it so difficult for you to do something now? Do you look down on us or not?" Going to Lele? Or are you planning to ask for an appearance fee?"
"When you get married on November 1, if I don't go to Munich to find Brother Yun, she will definitely come to Hannover. If she knows that Lele is the bridesmaid and I am the best man, won't it be easy to cause conflicts? Don't you know that she cares about it so much? Tong Lele, I’m afraid there’s something going on between us.”
"You're not afraid of wild boars but you're afraid of her?" Lao Bai tilted his head and sighed, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. As the old saying goes, everything in the world will be destroyed."
Dong Qiangqiang turned his head and glanced at Tong Lele and Hualing, who were still whispering to each other in the distance, and made a pun: "You know, she is the kind of person who can clearly distinguish between love and hate."
"Are you talking about Brother Yun or Hua Ling?" Lao Bai pretended to start a fight, "If it's Hua Ling, then I have to tell her that you said bad things about her behind her back."
Seeing that Lao Bai was in a good mood, Dong Qiangqiang asked curiously: "Last time in Munich, you said you wanted to think about it again. Have you figured it out now or are you planning to surrender?"
"Isn't it just walking into the grave of love hand in hand with both eyes dark? Am I afraid?" Lao Bai suddenly stopped the knife in his hand and stared thoughtfully at the diced cabbage on the chopping board, "Wait until you arrive. At this age, I understand that it doesn’t matter who is the knife and who is the cabbage.”
"You sound resentful when you say this." Dong Qiangqiang teased, "You seem to be very unwilling to do so."
Lao Bai stopped talking, and the knife in his hand rose and fell faster.
Lao Bai put the meat filling, eggs, chicken essence and other seasonings into the chopped cabbage piled up like a small mountain bun, and then stirred it clockwise at a constant speed.
Dong Qiangqiang was staring at his movements in trance when Tong Lele came in from the kitchen with his mobile phone and handed the mobile phone into his hand: "It rang in the car for a while."
Dong Qiangqiang took the phone: "Hello?"
"Is this Dong Qiangqiang?" A rough German male voice came from the other side.
"I am. Who are you?"
"I am Officer Vincent from the Hanover Police Department. Where are you now?"
"The public kitchen in Building 2 of the Hannover Conservatory of Music student dormitory."
"Please don't leave, we will arrive at the address you mentioned within 20 minutes."
"Excuse me, do you have any business with me?" Dong Qiangqiang vaguely guessed that the police might be looking for him because of Lei Lanting's matter, but he was not sure.
"Please don't leave, we'll be there soon." The policeman repeated conveniently and hung up the phone.
Dong Qiangqiang and Lao Bai looked at each other with a bad premonition in their hearts.
Everyone gathered together to make dumplings. Tong Lele and Lao Bai's dumplings were all very beautiful, like big ingots of gold ingots.
Dong Qiangqiang had something on his mind, so he made several dumplings in a row. Either there was too much stuffing and the skins burst, or there was too little stuffing and they turned into wontons. Lao Bai laughed at him for wasting food and assigned him to guard the pot making dumplings.
He carefully threw the dumplings into the boiling water along the edge of the pot. He couldn't help but be stunned as he watched the dumplings sink and float in the pot.
As soon as the water was turned over, Lao Bai suddenly walked to the door, knocked on the door panel with his fist, and made a gesture at him. Dong Qiangqiang immediately realized that the police had arrived.
He wiped his hands on the rag and walked out of the communal kitchen.
Seeing the appearance of the police, everyone looked a little confused.
Hualin mistakenly thought that he was complained by other students for cooking, so he explained first: "We didn't make any noise."
"Ma'am, we are here to find out something about Mr. Dong Qiangqiang." A tall and thin policeman said in a friendly manner, "Please let him speak."
Dong Qiangqiang walked to the front of the crowd: "I am Dong Qiangqiang. What questions do you have?"
Lao Bai pulled Hua Ling and others back to the public kitchen and closed the door, but everyone still stared at Dong Qiangqiang and the police's every move through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
