Qin Yu was pulled forward unexpectedly by Xia Lan's sudden movement...

Xia Lan tiptoed and kissed Qin Yu on the lips, then released him.

Taking advantage of Qin Yu's momentary daze, he grabbed two vegetable buns from the table and ran away.

Qin Yu watched Xia Lan's hurried escape, one hand touching the spot where he had been kissed, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Xia Lan blushed as she entered the office, patting her face in an attempt to cool it down.

"Xia, what's wrong? Why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?" Minister Yang walked in with a teacup in his hand and saw Xia Lan's flushed face. He asked with concern.

"I'm fine, I just rushed over to get to work," Xia Lan said with a smile, shaking her head.

"It's just a short distance, you can walk over slowly. It's still early before you leave the store!" Minister Yang chuckled.

It's only 7:40 now, and the doors don't open for another 20 minutes! We can come over at our leisure.

Just as she finished speaking, Qian Yao and Qian Xue walked in with horrified expressions.

"What's wrong with you two? You look so pale," Minister Yang asked worriedly.

"What happened?"

"Minister, there are so many people gathered outside our store!" Qian Yao and Qian Xue came in from the front and saw a crowd gathered at the entrance of the department store.

They had never seen so many people before, and it startled them.

Minister Yang was taken aback, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly put down his cup and went out to check.

Xia Lan smiled at Qian Yao and Qian Xue. "Good morning, Qian Yao and Qian Xue."

"Good morning, Xia Lan! You can just call us Xiao Yao and Xiao Xue! Can we call you Xiao Lan too?" Qian Xue greeted Xia Lan with a smile.

"Of course! Xiao Yao, Xiao Xue," Xia Lan said with a smile.

"Hello Xia," the twins replied in unison.

"You two are so in sync." Xia Lan watched as they each did their own thing, yet they could still answer at the same time so perfectly. Was this the telepathic connection between twins?

Xia Lan sat eating the vegetable buns Qin Yu had bought for her, a sweet smile on her face.

Seeing how happily she was eating the vegetable bun, Qian Xue couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything special about this bun? Why are you enjoying it so much?"

“…It’s just a vegetable bun.” Xia Lan blushed and quickly stopped smiling foolishly.

“Even ordinary vegetable buns are extraordinary vegetable buns,” Qian Yao said with a smile, patting Xia Lan on the shoulder.

Xia Lan and Qian Yao exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.

"What are you talking about? How else could a vegetable bun be special?" Qian Xue was stunned. Why did she always feel that her sister and Xia Lan were connected, but she herself didn't understand?

"You don't understand." Qian Yao glanced at her younger sister and patted her head.

"Xia, tell me quickly, what are you talking about? My sister is acting like this again, as if I'm a child!" Qian Xue pouted unhappily, feeling that she was being looked down upon.

Why do they all know, but she doesn't?

In what way is she less intelligent than them?

"Well! You'll know when you have a boyfriend." Xia Lan glanced at Qian Yao, who smiled and Qian Xue's eyes widened.

"You're finished, Qian Yao. When did you start dating behind my back?" Qian Xue threatened Qian Yao, pointing at her as if she had caught her red-handed.

"I don't have a boyfriend." Qian Yao rolled her eyes at her silly younger sister. Does she need to have a boyfriend to understand this kind of thing?

"Then why do you know?" Qian Xue questioned.

"That's why I'm the older sister and you're the younger sister." Qian Yao smiled happily and pinched her younger sister's cheek.

Qian Xue rubbed her cheek, which her sister had pinched so hard, and said with dissatisfaction, "You called me stupid again!"

"See, you're not stupid! At least you know I'm saying you're stupid," Qian Yao said, blinking her eyes.

"...Qian Yao!!" Qian Xue lunged at Qian Yao, ready to fight her to the death.

"Hurry, hurry, Minister Yang told us to get to the front quickly, the guests outside are about to start making a scene!" Xiaoling ran back and shouted to the three of them while Qian Yao and Qian Xue were playing around.

Xia Lan silently swallowed the last bite of her vegetable bun and followed Xiao Ling into the shop.

Minister Yang was pacing back and forth anxiously. As soon as he saw Xia Lan, he quickly asked her to come over.

"Xia, what should we do? Look outside, there are so many guests..."

"Minister, don't worry, we already practiced it yesterday, right? Everything will go smoothly!" Xia Lan reassured her.

Minister Yang looked at the huge crowd outside the door and took a deep breath.

"Everyone to your positions!"

At Minister Yang's command, everyone looked at each other, took a deep breath, and returned to their respective counters.

Xia Lan walked to the table next to the door. On the table was a square raffle box. Qian Yao and Qian Xue stood behind her, and they were responsible for taking the free gifts placed behind them.

They're described as defective, but they don't look that bad, and there are quite a few different kinds.

Minister Yang nervously shook hands, then forcefully opened the door wide together with another male colleague.

As soon as the department store doors opened, customers rushed in, each holding tickets and money, and ran to the counters where they wanted to buy things, asking the sales clerks to give them what they wanted.

"Quick, quick, get me some toothpaste... If you buy toothpaste, what are you going to give me as a gift? Why is it just a piece of paper?"

The first person to try something new always attracts attention. The man bought toothpaste and waited for the salesperson to give him a free gift.

"Customers who have made purchases will receive a colorful piece of paper like this from the sales clerk. Please take the paper you received and line up here to collect your free gift!" Xia Lan shouted, holding up a paper megaphone.

"Hey, hey, hey! I have paper, what can I do with this?" The man ran up to Xia Lan with the paper in his hand.
