Is Lin Mo Your Friend

Cohabitation?!

Seeing the stunned look on Xie Yufei's face, Lin Mo knew that this guy must be having wild thoughts.

However, he didn't feel the need to explain. He just looked at Xie Yufei and asked, "Do you have any brushes?"

Xie Yufei nodded repeatedly. His look at Lin Mo had completely changed. This must be his future brother - in - law.

After all, it was his aunt who told him this morning that she was going to bring back a tenant.

At this time, the person she brought back must be someone she approved of.

Looking at his cousin, although she was beautiful and never short of suitors.

But his cousin was as cold as an iceberg. The person she took a fancy to must have something outstanding about him.

He picked up a brush and handed it over.

Lin Mo took the oysters to one side to wash them.

These oysters were stored with water and ice, but they hadn't been cleaned before being delivered.

While washing, Lin Mo asked, "Hey, guys, do you want the oysters to be simply grilled or with garlic sauce?"

Xie Yuling tilted her head and said, "Why not have half simply grilled and half with garlic sauce?"

Lin Mo joked, "I'm just asking for your preferences. If more people like the simply - grilled ones, I'll open fewer oyster shells."

Xie Yufei immediately went to ask around.

After asking, many people ran into the kitchen to look at the palm - sized oysters.

The result was that they wanted half simply grilled and half with garlic sauce.

Because everyone wanted to give both a try.

So Lin Mo nodded and quickly washed the two boxes of oysters.

While washing, Lin Mo said with a smile, "Sorry, the water bill this month might be a bit high."

Xie Yufei waved his hand and said, "Oh, this little bit of water bill doesn't matter."

He had just learned that two boxes of oysters cost over a hundred yuan.

Moreover, they seemed to be of very good quality.

However, Xie Yufei didn't know the price of oysters and why Lin Mo could order these things.

Lin Mo wrapped the ice with plastic wrap and then placed the washed oysters on it.

This way, they wouldn't get dirty and could stay fresh.

At this time, everyone got busy.

Half of the boys went to the large terrace on the fourth floor to set up the barbecue grill.

The remaining boys helped to skewer the food and do odd jobs, and all the girls also helped with skewering.

Xie Yuling picked up the seafood bag from the sink and poured out all the black tiger shrimps.

As soon as she poured them out, she exclaimed, "These shrimps are so big!"

Then a bunch of people couldn't help but look over.

"Hey? They're really big. What kind of shrimps are these?"

"They're called black tiger shrimps, but I've never eaten them," Xie Yuling said, looking at these palm - sized, meaty and still - jumping black tiger shrimps. There was an inexplicable sense of joy in her heart.

She really wanted to eat them soon!

However, these shrimps were very lively.

They were jumping around in the sink, and the girls didn't dare to touch them at all.

The other boys were also psyching themselves up.

Lin Mo waved his hand and said, "Let me do it. Put them aside first and you do other things."

Saying that, Lin Mo filled the sink with water and soaked the shrimps.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo himself started chopping garlic.

Garlic was needed not only for the oysters but also for things like grilled eggplants.

The few girls were skewering sausages and meatballs while watching Lin Mo chopping garlic beside them.

Xie Yuling was facing Lin Mo's back. While skewering, she watched Lin Mo chopping garlic.

The two girls couldn't help but ask.

"Is that guy named Lin Mo your boyfriend?"

It was so straightforward, but since there were no adults at home, everyone was more open - mouthed.

Hearing this, Xie Yuling couldn't help but be stunned. She immediately averted her gaze from Lin Mo.

"He's just a friend," she said expressionlessly while skewering.

The other two girls weren't sure, but they probably guessed something.

Seeing that the girls could strike up a conversation, one of the boys couldn't help but ask, "So are you classmates?"

"Yeah, we're classmates at Guangba Middle School."

Guangba Middle School.

This was a key high school. The boys looked at each other and immediately lost the idea of continuing to chat.

On the contrary, the girls couldn't help but say, "Then both of your grades must be very good, right?"

"He's better than me," Xie Yuling said, thinking of Lin Mo's invincible performance in the math olympiad.

If Lin Mo wanted to, he might be directly recommended to a university through the math olympiad competition.

Hearing this, the two girls couldn't help but exclaim.

Great, they've become shippers.

Although Lin Mo was in the kitchen, he could hear clearly what was being talked about outside.

He finished chopping a large bag of garlic and then needed to wash it.

Most of the garlic sauce used for barbecuing was a combination of fried and raw garlic.

Mainly because a large amount was being made, it needed to be washed. Otherwise, the strong garlic smell would turn bitter.

Lin Mo also had a lot here, so he needed to wash it too.

He heated up a pan with oil.

When the oil was hot, he turned the heat to low and added half of the garlic.

This garlic quickly turned a light golden color. At this time, Lin Mo added the remaining half of the raw garlic and immediately turned off the heat.

He added oyster sauce, salt, and sugar, and then cut a chili pepper to add flavor.

After all, most of the people here didn't eat spicy food very much. The chili pepper was mainly used to remove the fishy smell and add fragrance.

Finally, he added a spoonful of starch and stirred well.

The starch was used so that when the sauce was spread on the oysters, not too much water would be lost, and the water would turn into sauce.

Lin Mo learned this skill from a small oyster vendor.

But later, Lin Mo didn't go into the oyster - selling business.

However, making it for everyone to eat now wasn't a waste of this skill.

After finishing making the garlic sauce, Lin Mo wiped his hands and walked out.

Everyone was chatting and skewering food. Several baskets were already full.

There were so many people here, so they should be able to eat a lot.

However, Xie Yuling didn't participate in the conversation. She was like a heartless skewer - making robot, constantly skewering.

Lin Mo casually grabbed Xie Yuling's wrist.

"Come on, let's go and see how big brother skewers the shrimps," he said.

With his other hand, Lin Mo also grabbed a bunch of bamboo skewers.

The two young girls looked at Lin Mo's somewhat domineering action with starry eyes.

The other boys didn't expect Lin Mo to be so direct. That was the ice - cold Xie Yuling!

However, Xie Yuling was looking at Lin Mo's back with a beaming smile and was easily pulled into the kitchen by Lin Mo.

Obviously, she was willing to go.

These boys couldn't even strike up a conversation and could only continue to bury their heads in skewering.

When they reached the sink, Xie Yuling spoke up.

"Be careful. These shrimps look fierce."

Lin Mo casually reached out and grabbed a black tiger shrimp.

In Lin Mo's hand, these black tiger shrimps didn't even dare to move.

Two catties sounded like a lot, but since these black tiger shrimps were so big, there were only nineteen of them.

He picked up a skewer and pierced it straight through the shrimp's tail to its head.

Just like that, one shrimp was skewered.

Lin Mo placed the shrimp on the ice. If the shrimp were left out for too long, the meat would go bad, so they had to be placed on ice like the oysters.

Xie Yuling watched, a bit surprised, and also thought Lin Mo was very brave.

After all, strictly speaking, they were just fifteen - year - old kids, especially those from the city.

They wouldn't even know how to kill a chicken, so it was natural for them to be more afraid of these lively shrimps.
