Betty woke up to the smell of food. She rubbed her slightly swollen forehead and recalled how she had lost her composure before. Betty stood up, walked to the mirror, and said to herself, "Betty Ross, you're not a little girl anymore. You can't be so willful. "
After saying this, she patted her cheek. She pushed open the door of the room and walked downstairs.
She vaguely heard the conversation coming from the dining room, and she stood in the stairwell for a while to listen.
When Dr. Banner heard the sound coming from upstairs, he focused his gaze on the stairwell and said, "Betty, it's time to eat. Seriously, you should try this food. It's great! "
Betty came down from upstairs curiously, "When did you learn to cook, Bruce?"
Of course, it wasn't Professor Banner who cooked. In fact, the only dish he knew how to cook was toast with jam. If that was called a dish.
Li Jie was busy in the kitchen, humming a tune and happily cooking all kinds of dishes. Food was bought from all over the world through the Space Gate.
There were crabs from the North Sea, vegetables from Asia. Beef from Australia, and chocolate just purchased from Belgium. There were also salmon from Norway, and caviar from Russia.
Today, Li Jie prepared an unusually sumptuous food, and he bought it with his own money. Banner didn't know why Li Jie was so happy when he went out for a ride.
But there was delicious food, and Banner had no reason to refuse. If Li Jie didn't cook, Dr. Banner would have to find a way to buy takeout. He could only try to make fried bread and fried eggs with salad dressing with arugula.
"When a person is in a bad mood, giving her these things will only make her mood worse!" Li Jie stopped Dr. Banner who wanted to do this at the time.
And he said with a serious smile, "Good food gives people a good mood. If you want to cheer up Miss Betty's mood quickly, you need to prepare a good meal for her. Am I right? Lan! "
Lan, who had just returned, glanced at Li Jie and blushed inexplicably. But she quickly returned to normal, and Dr. Banner didn't see any abnormalities at all.
Lan curled her lips. "Whatever. I don't want to eat anything tonight! "
After speaking, she ran back to the room Dr. Banner prepared for her. Dr. Banner looked at Li Jie with some surprise: "What's wrong with her?"
Li Jie shrugged. "Maybe he just had his fill?"
"Huh?" Dr. Banner was confused.
Anyway, under Li Jie's cooking, a very, very sumptuous lunch began to come out of the oven one by one. Seafood and steak are the choices for the main course.
Medium well roasted beef tenderloin (T-bone) with rosemary, thyme, black pepper and other seasonings. The knife sliced down, and the juices of the meat flowed out. All kinds of plant spices mixed with the rich aroma of meat directly rushed into the nose. It is the favorite of carnivores.
And baked king crab. Li Jie took out the whole crab meat and put it into the crab shell. Grilled with a generous sprinkle of prime mozzarella cheese. The aroma of milk filled the air, and the crab meat was chewy.
In order to set off such a main course, Li Jie's appetizer was not sloppy. A mouthful of black caviar with a small sip of vodka is a perfect match. It can open people's taste buds, but the taste will not be too strong.
Between the appetizer and the main course, there is also a vegetable salad for the two ladies. It's very simple, but it's different from the average Western salad.
Because Li Jie added lactone tofu to this vegetable salad, although the sauce is the basic match of olive oil vinegar sauce. But it was mixed with Japanese sauce and a small amount of Chinese vinegar. It makes the taste more oriental.
There was also a smoked salmon roll. He added his own mayonnaise in the middle of the salmon roll and topped it with some black caviar. One smoked salmon roll for each person is not large and can be eaten in one bite. This kind of food is used for appetizers.
Of course, a sumptuous lunch can't end without a good dessert. Chocolate mousse cake with passion fruit pudding can be chosen according to your preference.
The dense and mellow chocolate mousse can enhance people's sense of pleasure. The refreshing and sweet passion fruit pudding can dissolve the greasy feeling brought about by the entire lunch dish.
Li Jie also specially purchased a suitable table cloth for this lunch. He found that the table cloth in the farm house is too old-fashioned. A white checkered and black-striped table cloth was re-laid.
The white and gold-rimmed plates are filled with all kinds of delicacies, and the silver carved knives and forks are low-key and imposing.
Looking at Li Jie doing all this, Bruce Banner is a little dumbfounded. Although Dr. Banner is also a person who has seen and eaten, he has also attended many grand parties or dinners in the past.
But he never thought that such a grand and formal banquet could be reproduced in his own restaurant. Shouldn't that be done by an entire team of chefs and servers? How can one person do it? And it's done so well!
This was beyond the standards of a family dinner. Even a Michelin restaurant could not do more than this.
"I don't know what to say. Jason, if you concentrate on being a chef, you will definitely achieve more than if you are an ordinary businessman or a hero! "Dr. Banner sincerely praised him.
Li Jie shrugged: "It's like this. Being a chef is my job. Being a superhero is just a part-time job. At present, it's just a part-time job that's a little busy. When one day the world no longer needs me to be a hero, I will open a restaurant in my heart. I will live quietly with Lan. "
Banner looked at Li Jie seriously: "Are you thinking about retirement now?"
Li Jie said noncommittally: "Life is like this. No one can't live without anyone. It's good to be a hero, it's just a coincidence. There will be talented people in every generation, and they will lead the way for decades. "
"We are just a wave in the tide of history. We are just doing our own thing. When we are caught up by the waves, we should step down and give way. Instead of clinging to power so tightly. "
Li Jie's words were very much to Banner's liking, and Dr. Banner said: "You are right. We are just connecting boards of the same era. When this era transitions smoothly to a new era, maybe we should exit. "
Li Jie stretched out his finger: "Even if you don't want to exit, you may be knocked to the ground and then thrown into the Dumpster like garbage. It's not hard to choose if you want to retire honorably or be abandoned by the times. "
"Those who cling to power but don't admit that they can't keep up with the times are doomed to tragedy. For example, Schmidt, the current leader of Hydra. The times are changing too fast, and he has been behind the times for too long. Hydra is destined to be taken into the ditch by him. Maybe if Schmidt didn't appear, Hydra would be a big problem for the world. "
"But when he appeared, Hydra's defeat was doomed. He made a series of stupid moves and occasionally had a flash of inspiration, but it was difficult to reverse the defeat. It's not because we are targeting him, but because he is wrong in the whole policy. If he is willing to learn to delegate power and give it to the right people to manage, maybe it will be better. "
Banner smiled at Li Jie's words: "If villains know how to delegate power, then they can't be villains. Only those who have a strong desire for power and are unwilling to let go can become the world's big villain! "
Li Jie agreed with this: "Yes, I agree with this very much. That's why Schmidt is stupid enough to provoke the relationship between you and Tony. To intensify the conflict between you and Ms. Betty, he even sent his men to attack her. Although we don't know what the specific operation is, they want to do this to frame others. And the target of the frame is likely to be Tony or the US military! "
"For example, using you, Hulk is actually an uncontrollable power as an excuse. Using Betty to contain you. With the current bad reputation of the military, maybe you will really believe this. Then you will go crazy and fight with the government, and finally you will have to face Captain Rogers and Tony, and the result will be a lose-lose situation. "Li Jie said these words with a serious face.
He said it with certainty, as if everything he said was true and would happen. This made Banner a little confused about whether what Li Jie said was true or not.
Those people were clearly killed by him. How did the Nightwalker know all of this? Did he find them alive?
Dr. Banner asked in confusion, "Is what you said true?"
Li Jie looked at Dr. Banner very seriously and nodded vigorously: "It's all true! Believe me! "
Banner was a little puzzled by Li Jie's exaggerated movements at first, but then he quickly understood: "Yes, what you said is indeed very likely!"
When he finished this sentence, Dr. Banner turned his head in the direction of the stairwell and said: "Betty, it's time to eat. Seriously, you should try these food. It tastes great! "
… …
Appetizers: Black caviar with small mouthfuls of vodka, smoked salmon roll with homemade refreshing mayonnaise embellished with black caviar
Salad: Asian-style tofu salad.
Main dish: Grilled T-bone beef tenderloin, including the double taste of tenderloin (filet mignon) and sirloin (sirloin). The baked king crab is even more luxurious. All the crab meat is removed and put into the crab shell and baked with cheese.
Even the dessert after the meal is made with great care. Lan ate this lunch in the end. After all, she can't be upset with her stomach, can she?
And as Li Jie said to Dr. Banner before, good food can bring a good mood. The more explosive the heat, the more excited the mood! (This is probably why many people are obsessed with eating fried chicken?)
After eating the meal made by Li Jie, Betty was obviously in a much better mood. She looked at Banner and then at Li Jie, a little hesitant to speak.
