While Qin Yi was still sighing, things were in complete chaos on Jing Tian's end.

Two-thirds of the fans chose to get a refund, so Jingda simply refunded all the orders received that day.

He arrived at the dessert cart listlessly, unsure of how to begin.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Qin Yi bluntly said, "Just say what you have to say."

"Girl, is your rumor about Jiang Yuze true?"

"Of course not, I'm not at the age to be in a relationship yet."

"...You still have the mind to joke around? I'm sorry, bro! All of Jiang Yuze's female fans were devastated when they saw the exposé. They were clamoring to cancel their cakes. Because there were so many cancellations, I would lose money if I went to process the remaining orders, so I simply refunded them all."

Qin Yi glanced at the rolls of cake that had been finished behind her. "So, brother, you're canceling all your orders, right?"

Following her gaze, Jing Tian noticed the stock behind him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Girl, take a look at how many you've made. Give me all the finished ones, calculate the price, and I'll scan the code for you."

"Didn't you say you'd get a refund for everything? What are you going to do with all this stuff you bought?"

Jing Tian said dejectedly, "I don't want to break my promise to you. I'll have the brothers help me sell them later. If we really can't sell them all, I'll give each of my brothers and friends two. It won't go to waste."

Because they were close and she was too busy in the morning, Qin Yi didn't put the money for the 50 cake rolls into her system pocket first.

So she doesn't need to pay out money for a refund right now, otherwise it would be a losing proposition.

She looked at the finished cake rolls behind her, about thirty or so. Cake rolls can be refrigerated for about three days, with the best taste in the first two days. If they don't sell out today, it's okay to sell them tomorrow.

So she looked at Brother Jingtian and said, "Brother, forget it. I can sell these cakes tomorrow. The cakes will absorb the moisture from the cream overnight and become even more moist, which will also taste good."

After hearing this, Jing Tian was filled with gratitude: "Girl, you're so kind! I feel really bad about it! Here's what I'll do: I'll find a paparazzi I know to publish a clarification article for you."

There's still an hour until we close at midnight, and fans no longer want to buy cakes. Most of the staff have already been fed by Zixuan today, so Qin Yi's business is quite slow.

Actually, it feels pretty good to have some free time. I can relax, take a nap, and then clock out when it's time to leave work!

Zixuan was filming a major scene as the female lead today, and she was completely focused on the filming. By the time she finally got her phone back after a break, it was already 3 p.m.

After reading the news, she immediately sent a message to Qin Yi, but received no reply for a long time. She remembered that dessert trucks usually set up in the early morning and closed in the afternoon, so she decided to wait until her friend woke up in the evening.

Zixuan: [Yimei, I just saw that news. Where are you now? I'm coming to find you.]

Brother Jingtian: [Girl, I've already had someone publish a clarification. Take a look at this news article, but my friend isn't a top paparazzi, and his fame isn't as great as Lu Xiaofeng's, so it didn't cause much of a stir.]

Qin Yi groggily got out of bed; having no orders, she had actually had a good night's sleep.

When I checked the time, it was already midnight. I opened WeChat and realized this was the first time I had woken up since coming into this world and seen someone caring about me.

I was quite touched.

She replied to each and every message.

She told Sister Zixuan that she was fine and had just woken up at the hotel; she replied to Brother Jing that she had seen his latest clarification news and thanked him for his help.

Zixuan found out Qin Yi's room number and came straight over, carrying two bowls of instant noodles.

"Here, have a taste of our female celebrity's dinner today: zero-fat, no-cook buckwheat noodles."

Qin Yi frowned deeply; it didn't sound like something delicious.

Zixuan was busy boiling water, tearing apart seasoning packets, and squeezing out sauce.

If she hadn't seen that there were only two bowls of grayish-brown instant noodles in front of her, she would have really thought that Zixuan was preparing a grand feast for her.

He did a series of things with great speed and efficiency, only to find two bowls of dirt in front of him.

"Alright! Eat up~" The female celebrity warmly invited him to enjoy dinner.

Qin Yi stared at the bowl of brownish-gray soup, a few dried scallions floating on top, diligently absorbing the broth, as if this would revive it and drain everyone's blood...

We've gone astray.

She carefully scooped a few thin buckwheat noodles from the ash soup with her chopsticks.

It wasn't deep-fried, soft, wavy noodles; it was straight, long noodles that had been bent and crammed into a small, dark cubicle.

Qin Yi looked utterly dejected as she gazed at Zi Xuan's slender waist.

No wonder female celebrities are so thin; even a dog would shake its head and walk away if it saw this bowl of noodles.

"Did you offend someone?" Zixuan picked up a mouthful of buckwheat noodles with her chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth, eating expressionlessly like a chewing robot.

Seeing that the other person was eating without any fuss, Qin Yi felt embarrassed to show any disgust.

She calmly took a bite of the gray noodles, holding her breath as she took two bites before swallowing them. "I have someone in mind, and it should be pretty much her."

"Girl, do you not chew your noodles? Are you the person we saw the exposé about yesterday?"

Taking advantage of Zixuan's inattention, Qin Yi quickly swallowed another mouthful.

"No, I bit it off before swallowing it." After taking a big gulp of water, Qin Yi continued, "It's the second female lead in your drama, Wang Ruoruo. I'll tell you all about her after I finish eating."

"The word 'swallow' is used brilliantly."

"Actually, I swallowed it too. This is hardly something a human would like to eat!"

The two of them finished the small cup of noodles in just three bites with their chopsticks, not daring to touch the soup, which is known throughout the country as the best-tasting instant noodle soup. They preferred to drink bottled water instead.

Qin Yi wiped her sweat: "You female celebrities may seem to have eaten, but you're actually dieting. Pain is also a way to burn calories."

"I don't want to remember what this bowl of noodles tasted like anymore," Zixuan rolled her eyes. "Just tell me about Wang Ruoruo already."

So Qin Yi told Zi Xuan about the several times she had encountered Wang Ruoruo.

"Ugh! It's her, no doubt about it. You guessed right, she's using you as a shield!"

"Your friend's article doesn't provide enough clarification, it doesn't get enough attention, and it doesn't have a voice."

"The key now lies with the person who exposed Wang Ruoruo. If solid evidence is released, she will stop pursuing you. But if you tell her now that you didn't expose her, she won't believe you."

"Don't worry about your scandals. If you're innocent, you have nothing to fear. It's easy to explain things you didn't do."

"Okay, it's getting late. I'm going back to sleep. Tomorrow, please make another 40 rolls of cake for me, cut them into smaller portions, and call me when you're ready."
