Chapter 1

Start from the script-killing store

Half an hour later, Jiang Qi, who was having lunch at Huang Fugui's house, received a call from Wang Zhuo.

The battery car is broken.

Wang Zhuo was full of apologies on the phone, saying that he would definitely compensate Jiang Qi for the repair costs of the electric bike. If it was less than 1,000 yuan, he would compensate it now, and if it was more than 1,000 yuan, he would compensate it after Xiao Zhang paid the labor fee.

"How did the battery bike break down?" Jiang Qi was a little curious. He initially thought that the battery bike ran out of power halfway through the ride, and Wang Zhuo had to push the battery bike to his aunt's house, or push the battery bike to the store when he came back.

I didn't expect that the car would break down without even having to push it.

"Oh, it's all my fault. I was almost at the gate of my aunt's community, just one traffic light away. But there were two women arguing on the side of the road, it seemed like they were fighting over a boyfriend or something. I turned around to take a closer look out of curiosity, and ended up bumping into a stone pillar."

Jiang Qi: ...

"Are you okay?" As far as Jiang Qi knew, the last unlucky guy who crashed his bike into a stone pier had two steel nails inserted into his legs.

Yes, it is Ms. Jiang Bing.

However, she didn't bump into the stone pillar because she was watching others quarreling. She saw roasted sweet potatoes being sold on the roadside and was thinking about whether to turn around and go back to buy some, so she got distracted and bumped into the stone pillar.

"I'm fine. I'm on the roadside now and my aunt is here to pick me up. But the car is not in good condition. The front seems to be broken." Wang Zhuo's place was very noisy, and there seemed to be a lot of people around. Jiang Qi vaguely heard an old lady saying: "Young man, how did you get hit? Are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"As long as everyone is okay." Jiang Qi said that it wasn't his car anyway, "I'll tell my sister."

Jiang Qi hung up the phone and sent a message to Jiang Bing.

"Boss, is something wrong with Brother Wang Zhuo? Did he have a car accident?" Wang Erya asked worriedly, "Did he lose his memory?"

Wang Erya has watched a lot of TV dramas with Huang Fugui recently, which has led to her current understanding of car accidents as either death on the spot or amnesia and hospitalization. Whether it is amnesia or death depends entirely on whether the person is the protagonist.

“He didn’t…

It was just a small accident." Jiang Qi explained, picking up a piece of braised prawns for Wang Erya.

Today's lunch consisted of braised prawns, braised pork, chicken stewed with mushrooms and grilled beef ribs. There was no vegetarian dish at all. Jiang Qi was shocked when he came up to eat. There was nothing green on the entire table except the green tablecloth.

Huang Fugui was also surprised to see Jiang Qi coming up to eat, and blurted out on the spot: "Boss, didn't you say this morning that you wouldn't come over for dinner during this period? I didn't cook the dishes for you."

Although Jiang Qi had repeatedly explained that he had no gastrointestinal problems, his stomach was very healthy and he could eat meat every meal, it was obvious that Huang Fugui did not believe it.

"Brother John, Lan Lan just said in the work group that there will be a truckload of your mystery books at 1:30 pm and you need to go there early." Huang Fugui had finished eating and was playing with his phone. "Boss, are you going to the store this afternoon? There will be a truckload of "Mask Club" at 3 pm today and you need to perform."

"Of course." Jiang Qi also finished eating and put down his chopsticks. "I bought a new horror book last night. It will be delivered this afternoon. I have to go to the store to read it."

"Horror book?" Wang Erya chewed the prawn and swallowed it with the shell and meat. "Boss, what is the horror book?"

"It's just that there are ghosts that scare people." Jiang Qi explained simply and roughly, "There was a special offer for the Ghost Festival recently, and I couldn't help but order a horror book."

"I'm a little worried about drawing a ghost card. If I draw a haunted house, it would be easier, but if I draw a ghost, I really don't know what to do." Jiang Qi said worriedly.

"But boss, am I not a ghost?" Wang Erya looked at Jiang Qi and pointed at Old John. "Uncle John and I are both ghosts. We both died a long time ago."

Old John:?

Jiang Qi:!

Huang Fugui:?!

The road never imagined.

Jiang Qi suddenly became enlightened.

Yes, Wang Erya and Old John are both ghosts in theory.

Old John died in the plot, Wang Erya appeared as a ghost, and the Wang Erya that Jiang Qi saw in his memory...

Chapter 83: An Unexpected Road, click on the next page to continue reading.

I am just one step away from crossing the Naihe Bridge to be reincarnated.

Jiang Qi suddenly felt that there was nothing to worry about.

"The Dollhouse" is a modern version. As you can guess from the name, it is about a group of people going to a famous haunted attraction to commit suicide.

Modern ghosts are usually not too old.

Wang Erya is a ghost from the Qing Dynasty. Even if Jiang Qi really draws a ghost card, Wang Erya, as a ghost from the Qing Dynasty, should have no problem dealing with a modern ghost... right?

"Erya." Jiang Qi looked at Wang Erya with a serious face, "Do you in the ghost world respect the old and love the young, first come first served, and seniority?"

Wang Erya: ???

.

Since Old John had to go to the store early, everyone decided to leave early together and set off right after dinner to avoid delay.

When the group arrived at the door of the store, the fat girl from the noodle shop next door was sitting at the door, enjoying the fan and watching TV series.

Jiang Qi's impression of this little girl was limited to the fact that she was in the second grade of junior high school this year and came to buy milk tea every day with a cup in her hand. He didn't even know her specific name.

Seeing Jiang Qi and the others coming, the fat girl happily jumped up from her chair and held Wang Erya's hand: "Qinghe, come and watch it with me. This is the TV series I told you about yesterday. The male lead is so handsome!"

Wang Erya took a curious look at the male protagonist on the phone and shook her head: "He is too thin, there is no flesh on his face."

"Where is the heroine?" The fat girl didn't care at all that Wang Erya disliked her beloved hero.

Wang Erya took a closer look and said, "Too thin."

Wang Erya raised her arm which was as thin as a bamboo pole: "Your arm is as thin as mine. Look, there is no flesh at all. It doesn't look good."

"Qingqing, you are still pretty, with fair skin and beautiful hair, as black and shiny as black sesame seeds. I wish I could be as pretty as you."

Wang Erya did not lie about this. Although the fat girl next door was chubby, she had good skin and good nutrition, so her hair was also well-maintained.

Qingqing smiled and held Wang Erya's hand, and shouted to the opposite side of the restaurant: "Mom,...

Qinghe is here, is there any iced green bean soup left?"

The noodle shop owner called her daughter out, and when she saw Wang Erya coming, she smiled and said, "Qinghe is here. Our Qingqing has been complaining all morning, asking me why your shop is not open in the morning."

"Uncle Qinghe, Boss Jiang, our Qingqing will come to your store to play with Qinghe later. Will it disturb your business?"

Jiang Qi didn't expect that Wang Erya had become so familiar with the noodle shop next door in just one day, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, I won't bother you."

"I'll send you a few bowls of mung bean soup when it's ready this afternoon. Lao Yao bought these mung beans at the market this morning. They're of very good quality. He's never bought such a good vegetable in his life."

Old Yao, who was cleaning up in the kitchen, had no idea that his wife was slandering him at the door of the store.

Jiang Qi opened the door and entered the store, turned on the air conditioner on the first floor, and walked behind the bar to boil water to make tea.

Seeing this, Wang Erya also went over to help, cleaning the ice maker and preparing to pour water into it.

Qingqing came in with everyone. She was originally sitting on the chair outside watching TV series. When she saw Wang Erya helping with the work, she ran to the bar to help.

"Boss Jiang, I'm here to help too!"

Wang Erya assigned her work to Qingqing, and took over Jiang Qi's work to wait for the water to boil for tea.

Qingqing's family's noodle shop has been opened here before she was born. Qingqing has been staying in the noodle shop since she was a child. She has helped her parents wash vegetables, run errands, serve dishes, clear dishes, and clean. She is much more efficient than Jiang Wanwan at work.

"Qinghe, the raw coconut latte you made yesterday was delicious, even better than the one made by Boss Jiang!" Qingqing whispered to Wang Erya in a low voice but Jiang Qi could hear it.

"Then I'll secretly make you a cup later."

"Okay, okay, don't let my parents find out. You should also be careful not to be found out by Boss Jiang and your uncle."

Jiang Qi, who was standing at the corner of the stairs and listening to the two people plotting loudly, said:

Jiang Qi grabbed Huang Fugui who was passing by, took him to the window, and asked, "Why did Erya suddenly...

Chapter 83: An Unexpected Road, click on the next page to continue reading.

So familiar?"

Huang Fugui wasn't very clear either. Although he had nothing to do yesterday except making noodles, he didn't want to expose the fact that he played games during work.

"Maybe it's because they get along well." Huang Fugui guessed, "We are about the same age, so we can play together."

Jiang Qi glanced at the two people at the bar, who were laughing and talking about something happy.

It’s embarrassing to say that if Wang Erya hadn’t said it today, Jiang Qi wouldn’t have noticed that Qingqing had good skin.

Like everyone else, his first impression when he saw Qingqing was that she was a fat girl.

Jiang Qi feels that the reason why Wang Erya is so popular is not just because she is sweet-talkerish, but because her first sight is always good.

She would praise the diamonds on Jiang Wanwan's hairpin, the glitter on the eyeshadow of the staff in charge of the Ferris wheel project on the day of the team building, and Qingqing's fair skin and black and shiny hair. It was not because she wanted to praise people, but because she really noticed and thought they were beautiful.

Language can be packaged, expressions can be disguised, attitudes can be pretended, but the person concerned can definitely feel whether his or her emotions are kind or malicious.

Few people can resist sincere, heartfelt compliments.

This is probably the secret of Wang Erya's popularity.

Be pure-hearted and treat others with sincerity.

Wang Erya ran to Jiang Qi and asked in a low voice: "Boss, can I make Qingqing a small cup of raw coconut latte? Uncle Yao said Qingqing has been drinking milk tea every day recently and he doesn't allow her to drink it anymore."

Jiang Qi nodded: "Okay, put less syrup."

"I didn't put syrup in it yesterday." Wang Erya ran back to make raw coconut latte.

Jiang Qi:?

The secret to a delicious raw coconut latte is not to use syrup?!

Damn, the 9.9 milk tea tutorial sold online is actually wrong!

"Courier, is Mr. Jiang Qi here? There's a package for you."

“Here it comes!”
