Chapter 6: Here Comes Joanna(1/2)
When he arrived at the Seven Axes Bar, John saw Zhu Yu coming and said exaggeratedly:
"Oh! Our lucky boy is back, come on, let me see... Hahaha, he looks good!"
There were not many people in the bar at this time, they were all acquaintances, and they all laughed when they heard John's words.
Old sailor Bundy raised his cup and said to Zhu Yu:
"Zhu, I heard that you made a lot of money. Not bad! I always thought you couldn't stay in the bar all the time. Look!"
Another sailor struck him:
"Why do I remember you saying that Zhu's introverted personality is only suitable for working in bars?"
"screw you!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Zhu Yu smiled and greeted these people one by one and came to the bar.
"John, this is a gift for you." Zhu Yu handed the pipe over, "Thank you!"
There is also a thousand dollars in the pipe box that John borrowed from Zhu Yu yesterday.
John took the box and opened it with a surprised expression:
"Wow! It's a beautiful pipe! I like it!"
"Thank you for helping me!" Zhu Yu said sincerely.
"No, no, no!" John winked at Zhu Yu, "You know? I have an agency fee of five hundred dollars from Nathan's place, which is higher than my bar's income in a day!
So, I am investing!
Now your performance proves that I have good eyesight! Hahahaha!"
Old John did not take credit, which made Zhu Yu even more grateful.
If it weren't for Old John, I might really have died on the street.
"Okay, have a drink, I'll treat you! If you get something good in the future, just remember to contact me."
Old John knew Zhu Yu's thoughts and poured him a glass of wine with a smile:
"This is your Chinese beer. I think you should drink it often, right?"
Zhu Yu took a look and didn't expect to see wine like "nsnm" here!
It's so amazing!
He picked up the cup and took a sip. A bitter feeling filled his mouth, but the familiar feeling returned.
This is the taste of hometown!
"Here, pour me a drink too!"
A female voice sounded next to him. Zhu Yu turned around and found that it was the beautiful Joanna.
Joanna has black hair, which is rare among white people. She has big eyes and does not have the common freckles of white girls. She is slightly shorter than Zhu Yu. She is looking at Zhu Yu with a smile at the moment.
"Hey, our beauty is here!" Someone in the bar immediately started cheering.
These old drinkers all knew that Joanna was interested in Zhu Yu, but Zhu Yu was more reserved and did not accept this friendship.
In everyone's eyes, this is Zhu Yu's character trait as a Chinese.
Zhu Yu knows his own family affairs, and now is not the time to fall in love!
John poured Joanna a glass of beer, Joanna took a sip, then frowned, and then relaxed:
"Hmm, it smells weird!"
After finishing speaking, he drank in one sip and pushed the cup to John:
"Give me another drink!"
Zhu Yu wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't.
John was very happy to see these two people together. He smiled and gave the bottle directly to Joanna:
"Do it yourself, this is wine from Zhu's hometown!"
Joanna's eyes lit up after hearing this:
"Only one bottle? How is this possible?"
"Joanna, you are still in school, so you can't drink too much." Zhu Yu had no choice but to advise.
Although the beer is not very intoxicating, the beer content of this one is a bit high.
"Today is the weekend, don't you know?" Joanna burped and blew the breath of wine at Zhu Yu, "Well, it feels really good!"
"By the way, I heard that you gambled on the container today and made a lot of money. Why don't you treat me to a meal?"
"Of course please."
After all, in the bar, in addition to John's help, Joanna's presence also saved Zhu Yu a lot of trouble.
Besides, eating is better than drinking!
But Zhu Yu miscalculated. Joanna meant to go to Zhu Yu's place for dinner and asked Zhu Yu to cook a meal for her!
"I have long heard that you are very good at cooking. If you really want to treat me to dinner, then cook it for me!"
Zhu Yu felt that he had been tricked.
But it didn't matter, he took Joanna to the container where he lived.
Let this young lady see where she lives so that she can dispel her thoughts.
Now Zhu Yu just wants to make money quickly and gain strength so that he can take revenge!
When Joanna left, she held a bottle of "nsnm" in one hand and winked at John.
John gave her a thumbs up and wished her success.
Zhu Yu didn't even see it.
When they arrived at the container, Joanna was really surprised.
But what was surprising was not that Zhu Yu lived in a container, but that the place was kept very clean.
"Wow! Zhu, I didn't expect you to clean the house!"
Joanna would never admit that the room in her villa was not as clean as this one!
"For Chinese people, this is normal." Zhu Yu started to pack up and prepare to cook.
Since you're cooking, let's cook what we're good at. Fortunately, we still have plenty of stock.
Take out the rice, wash it, put it into the rice cooker to steam, and then start cleaning the fish.
He planned to make the simplest green pepper scrambled eggs, then make a steamed sea fish, stir-fry mapo tofu, and then make seaweed and egg drop soup.
To say that the seasonings here are so complete, I really have to thank the container sales business.
There are also many containers sold here that have come from China, are ownerless, or have been abandoned because they cannot afford the rent.
There are many condiments included.
Those treasure hunters didn't know much about it, so they threw some away.
Zhu Yu half-bought and half-picked up a lot.
Otherwise, it’s really not easy to eat authentic hometown dishes!
Joanna was not idle either and asked Zhu Yu:
"Where's the cup?"
Zhu Yu pointed him to the location of the cup and continued cooking.
Except for the steamed fish, the other two dishes are not time-consuming and come out quickly.
Joanna poured the wine and smelled it, already making plans!
So delicious!
She couldn't help but swallow.
If it were at home, she would probably eat it!
Here, let’s wait. Pay attention to the image.
Damn the image!
Seeing Joanna's expression, Zhu Yu smiled and handed her a pair of chopsticks:
"Will it work?"
"Well, I have learned it!" Joanna was a little unsure.
"Then use this." Zhu Yu gave her another iron spoon and fork.
