When Xu Rui heard this, he snapped his fingers, "The hand is a little itchy!"

Lu Ci: Crying, a scumbag actually wanted to attack him, Lu Baby was very unhappy.

On Christmas afternoon, people in the apartment gathered in one go to the green space in front of the apartment, and men and women began to get busy.

Preparations started from noon, but there were only about twenty people present today, and the rest took advantage of Christmas to go out for a trip or were invited by friends.

In China, the Spring Festival is a day for family reunion, but during Christmas in the United States, they almost always have parties with their friends. After all, the people on their side are already independent individuals after they are eighteen years old. It is normal for their parents to not give you money. Moreover, on this day, parents will have to get together with their friends and their lives are very diverse.

Xu Rui moved all kinds of pickled ingredients to the table here, and everyone gathered next to the fire, wearing gloves and starting to wear meat skewers.

This is what they all bought with money. The dinners here are generally made of AA, except pork belly, beef, chicken wings, fish, and of course vegetables are indispensable.

Before, they didn't know how delicious it would be to roast vegetables just like this, but after eating Xu Rui's feeling of being cared for, they can make people happy to fly.

As for the ingredients for barbecue, Xu Rui bought it after traveling to many stores at the beginning.

Joey brought the meeting gift, put on a simple and generous dress, and greeted the housekeeper at home and prepared to go out.

"Miss Joey, where are you going?" asked the butler.

Joey knew that the housekeeper would tell her whereabouts about her father and mother, and she didn't resist, which was a kind of care in itself.

Her parents would not restrict her freedom, but they hoped to know her whereabouts.

"Today I'll go to Apartment 2 on Senna Road for a Christmas party. I'll be back later. See you Mrs. Michelle."

"You go slowly."

As soon as I got off the bus, I saw these people in the courtyard gathering together and talking and laughing. A bunch of fires lit up in the middle of the courtyard. Even if it is Christmas Day, it won’t feel cold. Seeing this scene will make people feel a pleasant smile on their lips.

"Xu Rui, the person is here." Song Bai was facing the door of the apartment. When he saw Joey standing at the door, he called Xu Rui.

Looking up, I saw a blond girl wearing a white cashmere sweater standing pretty at the door.

He threw down the bamboo stick in his hand, took off his gloves, got up and walked over, took the gift from Joey, and then found that the girl was looking at her with her glittering blue eyes. Xu Rui was not a narcissistic person, that was she had other purposes.

"Come here and sit down, you'll be able to eat barbecue soon."

"Thanks!"

Joey was arranged by everyone next to Xu Rui. The rest of the apartment looked at the girl who was so close to Xu Rui, and winked at Besie with an aunt's smile on her face.

Bessi walked over and muttered to them for a long time before everyone realized that this was the girl Xu Rui liked.

The barbecue was ready in everyone's hands and feet. Xu Rui brought an apron and stood in front of the grill to start barbecue. Everyone's eyes were coveting Xu Rui's figure.

Seeing this, Joey looked at everyone for no reason and immediately figured out the reason. It seemed that they were like him, and wanted to learn Kung Fu with Xu Rui.

Naturally, she couldn't fall behind, so she got up and came to Xu Rui's side.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Seeing this, everyone showed their aunt's uncle's smile on their faces. Are these two young people in love?

Xu Rui turned his head and looked at the little girl's nose that was blown red. No matter how she looked cute, she gave her half of her body so that she could get close to the grill and warm it a little.

"I can do it myself, or you can help me bring the barbecue to them when the time comes."

"Yes." Joey was very happy to hear Xu Rui's words. It seemed that Xu Rui could agree to his request.

However, as the barbecue was gradually roasted, the sauce, chili powder and cumin were sprinkled on it. The fragrance was slightly blown by the wind, and the disharmonious sounds came to the courtyard for a long time, all the sounds of the stomach rumbling.

Even Joey, who was closest to the barbecue, swallowed several times.

This taste is really mouth-watering and juicy.

The last time they ate it more than 20 days ago, and it was crazy to think about it.

"Xu Rui, is that okay?" Carl and a few young men and women came forward and saw the roasted golden barbecue. The gravy fell into the smokeless carbon and made a sizzling sound. This may be the most wonderful music in the world.

Put more than twenty barbecue on a plate and hand it to Carl, "Take it away, the one below will be well soon."

"Xu Rui, we love you so much."

Joey saw a barbecue handed over by Xu Rui. The golden color texture and tempting fragrance were constantly bewitching her taste buds.

"Eat it." Xu Rui smiled.

Joey took it, opened his mouth and took a bite, then sucked it and exhaled it. It was very hot, but it was delicious.

When the teeth bite, the rich gravy and the sauce on the surface splashed in the mouth, and various flavors hit the taste buds, making the body seem to sink into it.

She knew that she had misunderstood just now, so the look she looked at Xu Rui was not about to become a disciple, but she was obviously coveting these barbecue.

"This Christmas is really so happy." Carl's tears came out of food, then looked down at the empty plate and cried completely.

The barbecue on Xu Rui was released in waves, and everyone sat around the fire, having a lot of fun. When they were paired with red wine, no one cared whether they were gentle and humble. Anyway, a plate came up and cleared up immediately, and there was nothing they could do if they couldn't grab it.

Joey stood beside Xu Rui, and the first thing to eat was to be baked.

She likes roasted pork belly and roasted mushrooms very much, and the roasted beef tastes very delicious, or she likes everything today.

"I am a Harvard student, majoring in finance and management." Xu Rui picked up two strings of mushrooms and served them on Joey's plate.

"I'm at MIT and majoring in architecture." Joey didn't expect that Xu Rui was actually a Harvard student, and now he has a better impression of him.

It is still easy for her to study abroad as a British, but it is heard that it is difficult in China. Since she can come here, it means that she is excellent.

"Can you come here often in the future and like Chinese cuisine? I usually cook by myself."

Joey shook his head, "I haven't eaten Chinese cuisine, but can you call me Kung Fu?"

Xu Rui smiled and said, "I used Chinese Kung Fu in the nightclub last night, but fighting skills. If you want to learn it, of course I can teach you. In fact, there are also gyms that teach you fighting in Cambridge."

She didn't know where to learn fighting skills, but at least Xu Rui could do it, and she also got to know Xu Rui, which was very advantageous.

Joey is not stupid and sweet. She knows how to distinguish between good and bad people.

Just looking at the twenty or thirty people here are very friendly to Xu Rui, it can be seen that he is a very good person. The most important thing is the other person's eyes, which are very gentle and convincing.

The people there were very "sensible" tonight and did not disturb the young couple. If they had no food, they could go there to pick it up. Anyway, there were a lot of ingredients to prepare tonight, and it didn't matter if they were overeating. They could go crazy in the activity room of the apartment for one night.

After the last bit of chicken wings were baked, the two of them returned to the group, and everyone raised their glasses to thank Xu Rui.

"Xu Rui, how many years can you stay in the United States?" asked a round-shaped uncle. He was a lecturer at a nearby university, although not from Harvard and MIT.

"It will take at least two years." Xu Rui replied.

Bessi raised his wine glass and said melancholy: "When Xu Rui returns to China and we still want to eat barbecue, what should we do?"

"I can teach you."

As a result, everyone shook their heads in unison.

"We tried it, it's useless!"

Looking at their firm tone, those who don’t know thought it was too great, but now they express it with this attitude, which makes Xu Rui laugh and cry.

"Then you go to China then, there will be somewhere in the past." Xu Rui said helplessly.

"If you have a family business at home, do you have to inherit it?" As a rich woman, Bessi has never had any pressure to joke. Fortunately, every word she said seemed like a joke.

"Don't say it, there is really." Xu Rui nodded.

Hearing this, everyone said that after Xu Rui returns to China, they will definitely visit Xu Rui and then travel.

After a year and a half, Xu Rui met many people. First of all, the people in the apartment are from all walks of life, including ordinary office workers, education, an old couple in the academic world also live here, and a reporter from Global Geography magazine. They live here because the environment here is comfortable, and luxury is not overly pursued.

After eating and drinking, everyone gathered in the activity room. Xu Rui even sang a song, which surprised everyone.

Song Bai and his friends, especially their brains, found that Xu Rui was really omnipotent. There was nothing he could not do. Not only did he have excellent academic performance, but they also left behind their eighteen Chang'an Streets in other aspects, and were unable to match them.

After the bustle ended, Xu Rui drove Joey back. He kept waiting for Joey to come home and called him and said, and Xu Rui drove away.

It was almost dawn.

Mrs. Michelle heard the sound of the door opening and came out of the room in her pajamas. She saw Joey in her spirits obviously very good, and then she felt relieved.

"Miss Joey is back, did you have a happy night?"

"Good morning Mrs. Michelle." Joey smiled and hugged the other party and said hello. "I had a happy night. I ate a barbecue that tasted very good. I also met several Chinese people. They are all students from Harvard University. Mr. Xu Rui, who sent me back, was a very outstanding man."

After Joey said hello, he went to change his clothes and take a shower and prepare to rest.

But Mrs. Michelle was a little stunned.

What did she hear? Miss Joey actually praised a Chinese man. Did she fall in love with him?

Looking at Joey's door, Michelle picked up the phone and called Duke Halles.

As a duke, the Halles family has no rights. This duke is just a kind of reputation granted by the queen. Of course, the Halles family is rich and occupies a certain position among the many dukes. The family's businesses are very profitable, and there are several large ranches and farms. These are all ready to be divided equally for several children. Of course, their baby daughter will inherit a large amount of property at that time.

Therefore, they regard the candidates for son-in-law more seriously than their daughter-in-law.

Now that I heard that my daughter seemed to be in love, the Duke and Duchess of Halls almost didn't explode.

At the first moment, he thought about investigating the other party.

The future husband of his daughter must be an excellent man, otherwise he would not be able to hand over his daughter who had been treasured for 19 years to the other party.

Xu Rui didn't know that he was targeted by Joey's family. When he thought of Joey, he felt warm in his heart. How his relationship with the other party was progressing, he had no idea. After all, today was only the second time we met and didn't know much.

Of course, he also hopes that the other party can learn more about him.
