At the moment when he sees Zhou Wenping, Luo Zhen feels all the flowers in the world bloom . He widens his eyes and stares at Zhou Wenping . He even forgets how to speak for a while .
Zhou Wenping sees Luo Zhen stare at her blankly . She holds out her hands embarrassedly . She gives a light cough .
Yi Yunrui takes up the tea for a sip, while he gives a sudden kick at Luo Zhen .
“Ah . Ouch! Brother, why do you kick me?” Luo Zhen is “woken” because of pain . He looks at Yi Yunrui in confusion .
Xia Ning feels embarrassed . She says to Luo Zhen at once, “Colonel Luo, the boss Miss Zhou is talking to you . ”
“Oh . ” Luo Zhen is shocked . Then, he strokes his head shily, “Miss Boss, you are too beautiful . I was too surprised to hear what you said . Hehe . Would you say it again?”
Zhou Wenping is amused by Luo Zhen . She mildly smiles and says, “Commander, my surname is Zhou . They all call me Pingping . May I know your name?”
“Oh . Oh . My name is Luo Zhen . They all call me Cannon Luo! You can also call me Cannon Luo . ”
“Well, Commander Luo, how do you do! I wonder what kind of family dishes you like to have for lunch . ”
Luo Zhen blinks his eyes . He turns to look at Yi Yunrui, “Brother, I don’t know what to order . You and Mrs . Yi may do that . I am fine with anything!”

Yi Yunrui turns to Xia Ning, “Sweetheart, he is from the northeast . Shall we order some northeastern dishes?”
Xia Ning nods, “OK . ”
“Miss Zhou, he was my soldier . We are life-relying brothers . He is from the northeast . We want to have northeastern dishes . ”
Zhou Wenping glances at Luo Zhen, “Oh . You are northeastern . It is not surprising . Well . No problem . Please wait for a moment . The dishes will be served soon . ”
Zhou Wenping has a short conversation with them . When the appetizers are served, she leaves .
“Wow . Brother, this Miss Zhou is really beautiful . To be honest, except for Mrs . Yi and Commissar Mei, I have never met such a pretty woman . ” Luo Zhen can’t help admiring .
Hearing this, Xia Ning’s face turns pink, “Colonel Luo likes kidding . ”
“Ah . Mrs . Yi, I Cannon Luo never kid! I mean it . Brother, to be honest, even if we don’t have lunch here, it is worth anything to meet such a beautiful woman!”
Yi Yunrui mildly smiles, “Do you come to C City alone? Where is your correspondent?”

Luo Zhen slightly darkens his face . He strokes his head, “Hehe . I come alone . The military region doesn’t arrange any vehicles or money for me . If the correspondents come with me, they have to take a hard time with me . I didn’t bring them here . ”
The short speech sounds bitter . Xia Ning slightly frowns . She wants to speak, when Yi Yunrui holds her hand and hints at no speaking for now .
“You come to C City, while Commander Nie doesn’t tell me that . He is quite arrogant . ” Yi Yunrui says . He adds some tea for Luo Zhen, “You don’t need to worry about accommodation . C City is large with many hotels . As regards vehicle, according to your grade, I can arrange a Dongfeng Warrior for you . You are a colonel . It looks weird to carry the mission alone!”
Luo Zhen hears the displeasure in Yi Yunrui’s voice . He says, “Brother, I know you are kind to me . However, I come to C City this time for the purpose of catching the criminals . I don’t have much money, but I can take care of myself . Brother, you don’t need to worry about me . ”
Yi Yunrui darkens his face, “So, are you going to obey your supervisor?”
Luo Zhen is shocked . He stands up immediately at once and salutes, “Yes, Sir!”
At the time, the foods are served and the table is fully occupied .
There are stewed chicken with mushroom, stewed catfish with eggplant, braised beef with soy sauce, sip pig kidney, soft fried pork fillet, stewed spareribs with deep-fried bean curd, fried potato, green pepper and eggplant, cherry pork, fried dry bean curd with hot pepper, added with a bowl of dough drop and assorted vegetable soup .
The dishes look nice and smell good . Luo Zhen swallows his water . He takes up the chopsticks . He remembers something and says, “Brother, Mrs . Yi, let’s have lunch . ”

“OK . Let’s eat . ” Xia Ning smiles to respond .
“Help yourself . You don’t need those formulas when with me . ” Yi Yunrui says and picks a piece of fillet for him, “If you want to have any other dishes, just tell me . My treat . ”
“It is enough . Except for in the banquets, I have never had so many dishes!” Saying this, Luo Zhen holds the fillet with his hand to bite .
Yi Yunrui talks to Xia Ning in a low voice, “Sweetheart, you know, Cannon is not a punctilious man . He is my brother…”
Not waiting for Yi Yunrui to finish his words, Xia Ning also picks a fillet and holds it with her hand to bite, “Ah, it is not spicy . It tastes good!”
Yi Yunrui is moved . He also takes up a fillet to bite .
“Brother, Mrs . Yi is really kind . If I can marry someone like her in the future, I will obey her in everything!”
Yi Yunrui smiles . He takes a tissue to wipe Xia Ning’s lips .
Luo Zhen says when he eats, “Mrs . Yi, northeastern dishes taste strong, but seldom spicy . You are born in the south, but you may like northeastern dishes . ”
Xia Ning nods, “Yes . They taste much stronger than southern dishes, but I like them . ”
“That’s great . Hahaha! Well . How can these dishes be so typically northeastern? They taste as if they are cooked by native northeastern people . The chef of this restaurant must be from the northeast!”
They eat and talk . Luo Zhen has a good appetite and eats quite a lot . Unconsciously, they have finished most of the dishes on the table . Luo Zhen is ninety percent full and slows down . He drinks the soup, “There are so many remains . We may want a doggy bag . ”
At the time, Zhou Wenping comes in . She says, “Everybody, do you have any comments on today’s dishes?”
Not waiting for Luo Zhen to speak, Yi Yunrui responds, “My wife and I are not northeastern, but we think they taste good . If Miss Zhou wants to have the real comments, you have to ask my brother . ”
Zhou Wenping turns to Luo Zhen, “Commander Luo, here is it . The existence of the restaurant relies on the guests’ comments and advice . When Commander Yi and Mrs . Yi came here before, I also asked for their comments . I hope Commander Luo can tell me frankly, good or bad . That is the best support for the restaurant . ”
Luo Zhen wipes his mouth and drinks some tea, “Then, I may speak frankly! They are typically northeastern! To be honest, the taste is so great that it is rare even in the restaurants in the northeastern areas . I want to ask . Miss Zhou, is the chef a northeastern man?”
Zhou Wenping smiles, “We have quite several chefs . Some of them do from the northeast . ”
Luo Zhen pats on his leg, “Not surprising!”
They talk for another while . In the end, Zhou Wenping offers them a thirty percent discount . Luo Zhen wants to pack the remains to take away . Yi Yunrui stops him, “There are six to seven dishes . It needs quite some packing boxes for them . It doesn’t look good . If you like, we will come here again these days . ”
Luo Zhen glances at the dishes . He says, “Well . It is quite a waste . ”
Yi Yunrui laughs . He draws Luo Zhen aside and says mysteriously, “Boy, let me tell you a secret . Miss Zhou is beautiful, but she is still single . ”
