Chapter 1453 Going to the Toilet, Bathtub
The bald man continued, "If you let this kind of beef sit for half an hour, the flavor of red wine will start to seep in from the inside out."
The resulting steak has a wine-like aroma that emanates from within.
This is the result of countless trials and errors. The steak I make is a rare delicacy; you all must try it!
After the bald man finished speaking, he looked at Chen Mu and the others at the dining table with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Being stared at like that, Hong Wenli ate another piece, making admiring noises.
Lin Shanshan, standing to the side, had no choice but to put on a polite smile and cut a piece of meat into her mouth while being stared at like that by the bald man.
Seeing that the two of them had eaten, the bald man was very satisfied and then turned his gaze to Chen Mu and Xiao Ye.
Chen Mu responded with a smile, but he did not eat the meat.
However, Chen Mu did give him face; he picked up his wine glass and took a symbolic sip.
Chen Mu could smell that there was no blood in the red wine. It seemed to be made from grapes and was fairly normal.
Xiao Ye, who was next to Chen Mu, followed suit and took a sip of red wine.
Neither of them ate meat, and the bald man showed a hint of displeasure on his face.
Seeing that the bald man was displeased, Lin Shanshan quickly and nervously kicked Chen Mu under the table, signaling him to eat some meat and not arouse suspicion.
Despite Lin Shanshan's reminder, Chen Mu remained unmoved and still did not eat the meat.
Lin Shanshan felt a sense of disappointment and frustration, like encountering a terrible teammate at a crucial moment in a game.
And this terrible teammate was none other than Chen Mu and his companion!
The bald man offered her meat, but she openly refused. Wasn't this going against the bald man? It clearly aroused suspicion.
"Please don't let anything happen, please don't let anything happen..." Lin Shanshan silently prayed in her heart.
However, what Lin Shanshan didn't know was that Chen Mu didn't need to worry about her at all.
It's even... kind of funny.
In fact, Lin Shanshan's concerns should not have existed in the first place.
From the moment the players were discovered entering the courtyard, their midnight intrusion became utterly illogical.
The bald man had already realized that the players were of unknown origin and highly suspicious.
Chen Mu was somewhat puzzled by the bald man's attitude.
What Chen Mu wants to do now is to understand the bald man's underlying intentions, not to pretend to be normal and make the bald man stop suspecting anything.
Doing that would be like burying your head in the sand!
The bald man probably didn't truly approve of Lin Shanshan and Hong Wenli; it was more of a mockery and teasing.
Having realized this, Chen Mu only took a symbolic sip of wine.
As long as we can maintain appearances and avoid a complete falling out, that's fine.
The bald man clearly knew what Chen Mu was thinking.
Therefore, Chen Mu only drank alcohol, and the bald man did not fly into a rage; he was more annoyed.
Only Chen Mu was confronting the bald man head-on!
Or rather, of the five people at the table now, only Chen Mu and the bald man truly understand the situation and are vying with each other.
After taking a few sips of wine, Hong Wenli suddenly felt a bloating in his lower abdomen.
He has a problem: when he's nervous, he tends to urinate frequently and urgently.
This has always been the case, from childhood to adulthood. The current situation is no exception.
After holding it in for a while, Hong Wenli tentatively asked, "Um...buddy...brother, can I borrow your toilet for a bit?"
Hong Wenli wasn't too scared, even though going to the toilet is a dangerous activity in horror movies.
However, the cabins are not large, appearing to be only about three rooms.
There's a living room, a kitchen, and the remaining room is probably the toilet.
