Jiang Hai's current desire was naturally for Qi Li...
After returning home, the rest is history. Upon arriving home, Du Ning, blushing, went to her room first, and Jiang Hai followed Qi Li into her room.
Closing the door, the two embraced, their lips meeting, and the smoke of their passionate encounter slowly filled the room.
As the atmosphere intensified, their protective gear gradually diminished. Finally, under Jiang Hai's brute force, Qi Li's last two pieces of armor were forcibly removed, instantly revealing her... indescribable... to Jiang Hai. Looking at her, Jiang Hai gently licked his lips, his eyes fixed on Qi Li.
Qi Li was initially a little embarrassed, but her inner feelings quickly overcame that shyness.
In her eyes, she was Jiang Hai's wife, and for a wife to be looked at like this by her husband was perfectly natural.
So she took the initiative to meet him, and their lips began to mingle again. Then, Qi Li slowly knelt before Jiang Hai, taking certain indescribable parts into her mouth. Feeling Qi Li's actions, Jiang Hai also tilted his head back. The war had begun!
For a war maniac like Jiang Hai, once the war started, it wasn't so easy to end.
They got home around 2 PM. According to Qi Li's plan, they would arrive home at 3 PM, and even if they had a brief encounter, they should have stopped at 4 PM, rested, and gone out for dinner at 5 PM—perfect timing.
But clearly, she underestimated her charm and Jiang Hai's determination for the war. The war continued until 5 PM, finally ending with Jiang Hai's third all-out assault.
Qi Li was now panting heavily, not wanting to move at all, but her expression was one of great satisfaction.
As for Jiang Hai, he was clearly also a little tired. After wiping away the indescribable fluids with a tissue, he covered Qi Li with the blanket again, then went to the bathroom to wash himself, put on his clothes, and came out.
"You guys are finally done fighting." Seeing Jiang Hai come out, Du Ning, who was sitting on the living room sofa, reluctantly took off her headphones. She didn't usually wear headphones, but Jiang Hai and his group had been incredibly loud.
Although Qi Li's house was in a very upscale neighborhood, this three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment alone was worth fifteen million.
However, the location was expensive; the soundproofing was... well, not very good.
Du Ning had already found it unbearable in the room, so she came out to watch TV. Unfortunately, the TV volume couldn't drown out the noise, so she put on headphones and played on her phone.
Seeing Jiang Hai come out meant the battle was over, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What, you couldn't wait?" Hearing Du Ning's words, Jiang Hai grinned and came to her side, picking her up and placing her on his lap. One arm encircled her bottom, while the other rubbed her leg, as he spoke to her with a smile.
"Aren't you going to eat dinner tonight?" Feeling Jiang Hai's playful hand, Du Ning's body went weak. She patted Jiang Hai and whispered in his ear.
Jiang Hai didn't mind missing a meal, but these two girls needed to eat. However, looking at the time, he didn't want to wake Qi Li. Going out to eat would take forever, so he decided to eat at home.
"What do you have at home? We can eat at home." Putting Du Ning down, Jiang Hai asked her.
"Home? Qi Li and I don't usually eat at home. In the morning, we go downstairs to the breakfast shop across the street to buy some breakfast, like soy milk, fried dough sticks, or sandwiches and bread, and then we go to work. We eat lunch at the office, and in the evening, when we're inspecting steakhouses, we eat wherever we go. At home, we only have some small snacks like biscuits for dinner." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Du Ning stood up, scratching her head and saying with some confusion.
Hearing what she said, Jiang Hai couldn't help but sigh. It seemed these two girls really didn't have a talent for cooking.
Actually, that was normal; these days, most families only have one child, and there really aren't many people who can cook.
Listening to Du Ning's words, Jiang Hai walked towards the large double-door refrigerator in the kitchen. After opening it, he found that there wasn't much inside, except for some water, beer, and some snacks. However, in a nearby compartment, there were a few boxes of something. Jiang Hai picked them up and looked at them; they were dipping sauce for hot pot.
"Oh, we had this at home last month, and it tasted pretty good." Seeing Jiang Hai find the sauce, Du Ning slapped her forehead and said with a grin.
"How about we have hot pot again?" Hearing her words, Jiang Hai thought for a moment and asked her.
Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Du Ning nodded affirmatively. Although she was Chinese and could speak Mandarin from a young age, she hadn't spent much time in China. She had been taken to Ulan to learn modern skills at a very young age.
Afterwards, although she mostly carried out missions in the East, she didn't eat much hot pot or mutton hotpot. Hearing Jiang Hai mention this, she immediately nodded in agreement.
Seeing her little foodie expression, Jiang Hai smiled and ordered dinner.
Having ordered, Jiang Hai checked if they had any pots or pans.
He had to admit, although Qi Li couldn't cook, she was very wealthy. Her kitchen was practically unused,
yet it was spotless and fully equipped.
It had a standard induction cooker, a large pot, even a divided pot, and an old-fashioned hot pot...
Jiang Hai could tell at a glance that it was quite complete. Now, it was time to go buy groceries.
Jiang Hai hadn't spent much time in Beijing, so he wasn't very familiar with the city. Fortunately, navigation was readily available, and finding supermarkets was easy. Jiang Hai quickly found a nearby supermarket on his phone.
He and Du Ning went downstairs to the supermarket to buy lamb. Although the lamb there wasn't as good as the Ujumqin sheep raised on Jiang Hai's estate, they still had to buy some. Today, he planned to eat Beijing-style hot pot lamb.
Sichuan-style hot pot requires more ingredients and is more complicated. Even just preparing the broth might be a challenge for Jiang Hai, whose cooking skills weren't particularly gifted. Hot pot lamb was much easier.
After buying four pounds of freshly sliced lamb, Jiang Hai also bought some scallions and ginger for the broth. He also went to the seafood section and bought some live shrimp, crabs, and shellfish. These could be cooked and eaten immediately, and the broth would be the same high-quality hot pot broth. Jiang Hai was quite particular about his food.
After buying all the base ingredients, it was time for the condiment area. Qi Ya had specifically taught Jiang Hai how to prepare the condiments for hot pot.
After arranging sesame paste, chive blossoms, fermented red bean curd, chili oil, salt, sugar, and sesame oil, Jiang Hai and Du Ning returned home and began their work…
When Qi Li woke up feeling thirsty, it was already past 7 PM. Still half-asleep, she went to the bathroom and came out to get some water. But when she saw Jiang Hai busy in the kitchen, she felt a surge of emotion, almost to the point of tears. Besides being touched, she felt a warm, comforting feeling. If only she could see this scene every day! As for Du Ning beside her, well, she ignored her…
"Awake? Come help!" Although her movements were soft, Jiang Hai heard her. He turned around and saw Qi Li standing there so gracefully. Jiang Hai smiled and waved to her.
Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Qi Li smiled and nodded, then went into the kitchen to help Du Ning.
Before long, the hot pot was ready, and the three of them sat around in the kitchen, eating and singing. Life was still wonderful...
Just as Jiang Hai was enjoying himself, Qi Zhengtao was sitting at the bar counter of a bar in the capital, looking very unhappy, drinking one glass of wine after another. He was really furious.
Today, he wanted to cause trouble for Jiang Hai, but not only did he fail to do so, he also got beaten up. His father stood up for him, but was ignored. This was already enough to make him depressed, but unexpectedly, after Jiang Hai and the others left, Qi Song and Qi Liangcai scolded him, and that bitch Lü Si, who was his wife, sided with Qi Song and Qi Liangcai.
"I knew it! That bitch is definitely having an affair with them, definitely!" Slamming his fist on the table, Qi Zhengtao felt his anger about to explode. He roared loudly, and the people nearby, who had been in a rather heated atmosphere, unconsciously moved back. There were plenty of people like him in the bar; they didn't want to get involved with such bad luck.
"Another one, no, one more!" Throwing his empty glass onto the table, Qi Zhengtao glared at the bartender. Knowing Qi Zhengtao's status, the bartender naturally wouldn't refuse him a drink. Hearing his request, he placed a new bottle of brandy in front of him. Looking at the bottle, Qi Zhengtao reached out to grab it.
But at that moment, a hand pressed down on the bottle, rendering him unable to move an inch.
