Although she had zero romantic and sexual experiences, this woman was well-read and had her own insights.

  Gao Yan has always been opposed to men and women in love going to top-notch restaurants for meals, one of the reasons being that they might spend too much time gazing into each other's eyes, neglecting the delicious food on the table.

  However, after reading Alain de Botton's "The Art of Love" (Mainland translation: "Aphrodite: A Memoir of the Senses"), she realized that being passionate about food without considering its beauty is probably still a low level of sensuality. Sharing food with passion only reaches the middle level of sensuality, but creating food with passion and using it to build the passion between two people is the paradise of life's enjoyment.

  Of course, although she now has "two teams" to simulate a bit of "food + enthusiasm", however, this woman is still in the stage of "giant in thought and ant in action". These can only be thought about. So, participating in family banquets with "two teams" may be more frequent.

  I thought it was just a simple Chinese meal, but Xu Yu had carefully prepared it.

  Very tasteful.

  Let's just talk about the appetizer. Lightly crawling, gently touching, and carefully tasting. Some strange flavors of herbs stimulate the spleen and stomach, bringing the appetite to its peak; Sichuan pepper and black pepper are the most familiar and intimate, with a bit of numbness and spiciness, yet also having a silly and solid appearance, making people laugh; Thyme and lemongrass are elegant with a hint of nobility, but can't escape their innate gentleness; Cinnamon is considered a common fragrance, but sometimes it's also elegant, with a sensual flavor while containing medicinal properties.

  Highly concentrated products, ignoring some ordinary people.

  In fact, today's semi-formal self-service style is very much to Gao's liking, without any constraints. As a result, he also had a good impression of Mrs. Xu Yu, who belongs to the "big capitalist" mentality of her husband's family, rather than the "feudal" clan. Sitting in a circle, Gao would definitely dislike it.

  Of course, today's meal, in addition to Gao Fu, also came with some people. The dignitaries were extraordinary.

  It should be said that Mrs. Xu has a good heart and is particularly kind to Gao Yan for his sake.

  Gao Yan didn't want to publicize her relationship with Hu Lai, of course she had to respect it, but some "declarations" were still necessary. For example, the noble and legitimate family members of Hu's household. As a result, they all came in an extraordinary manner.

  There are several types of troops in the Guangzhou Military Region, with the commanders-in-chief, and the three departments of "Political Department", "Joint Logistics Department" and "Equipment Department" all being first-in-commands. There are also some very important second-generation officials.

  Gao Yan also met Hu Qiao for the first time. The leader had a very good first impression of this future daughter-in-law, Gao Yan's gentle and honest temperament generally pleased her elders.

  Of course, no need to introduce deliberately, afraid of scaring the young lady. However, Hu Lai personally welcomed her, and Xu Yu treated her like his own daughter, while the leader was also very caring - can't anyone with discerning eyes see through this?

  Gao Yun was also a "can't afford to be anxious" type. At first, seeing these people, she thought they were all from the troops and wondered if they would "collide" with Zheng Yi's side. But then she heard Hu Lai whispering in her ear that these were all from the Guangzhou Military Region, all close subordinates of his father. Thinking again, it seemed that Zheng Yi was from Beijing, so there shouldn't be any conflict. Moreover, Gao Yun had recently contracted a disease and seemed to have lost heart, becoming dispirited and timid, or rather, apathetic. She just wanted to muddle through, adopting the attitude of "when soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it".

  Besides, as soon as she arrived, Xu Yu was afraid of scaring her off, and no one else dared to disturb her. Hu Lai directly invited her to eat, handed her a plate, served her dishes, and spoke softly to her. To be honest, Hu Lai rarely showed such courtesy! Many people saw the "extraordinary meaning" behind it! However, she snatched the plate away, furrowed her brow slightly, and scolded him in a low voice, "I'll serve myself." Hu Lai laughed at her, "Don't I want to serve you? Today you're the ancestor." Nevertheless, he still handed the plate back to her.

  Before long, she came again, slightly impatient, "Don't follow me so closely." Hu Lai leaned against the table edge, his posture really captivating, looking at her, "I'm just watching, when will you have a conscience and think of giving me some dishes too?" Indeed, he was truly heartless. She glared at him, not speaking, indeed at a loss for words.

  Hu came over, stood up, and finally picked a piece of flat mushroom from the plate for her. He used his chopsticks to gently scrape against her slightly pursed lips, "Heartless." And then he left. He was indeed very thoughtful, picking out all her favorite dishes for her.

  Finally alone, High Taowei sighed, and the chopsticks in the plate poked gently, her mind was dull and unenthusiastic. Her butt itched, she didn't know how much medicine she had applied, but the itch between her legs was something she dared not speak of to others. The itch came in waves, when her attention turned to other things, it stopped itching, but as soon as she thought of "dirty disease", it started itching again. You say is this a typical case of "psychological effect"? But High Taowei didn't think so, she was a neurotic who relied on "psychological effects".

  What's wrong? As soon as I thought of "dirty disease", it seemed... that place started itching again...

  She bit her lip and was about to put down the plate to go to the bathroom, when she turned around...

  Ah!

  The ponytail seems to be caught on something.

  She hastily reached out to pull

  However

  A hand grasped her wrist lightly, and a voice said...

  "Don't move, the more you struggle, the tighter it gets."

  Suddenly, this voice was right next to her ear, "Or pinch me, I'm in pain too, would you feel better?"

  My heart suddenly started racing violently!

  But it really didn't move again.

  Put your hands down

  His hands darted back and forth between his own ponytail and the buttons on his military uniform.
