Night Market Food Street

Ali and Wan Qianqian set up their stall together. As soon as Wan Qianqian put out fried chicken, sweet potato fries with plum sauce, and white rice noodles, someone came over to buy some.

This food street has stalls on both sides selling all sorts of things, including grilled oysters, stinky tofu, cuttlefish balls, cold dishes, various kinds of mixed noodles, and shaved ice.

Wan Qianqian even asked Ali to help pack the leftovers so she could make lemon tea by hand.

Ahri packed the food very quickly, making Wan Qianqian feel much more relaxed.

Business won't be very busy in one night.

In the end, all that was left on the stall was a serving of fried chicken nuggets.

Wan Qianqian decided to pack up and said, "Let's take this home and eat it ourselves."

There was no need to move the stall; Wan Qianqian simply covered it with a large cloth and placed it there.

Wan Qianqian also left two servings of lemon tea, one for Ali and one for herself.

Wan Qianqian hasn't mentioned getting paid, and neither has Ali.

Three days passed like this.

Wan Qianqian discussed with Ali that she wanted to pay Ali a salary.

Ah Li didn't agree because she saw Shen Silan.

Shen Silan appeared alone on the food street, wearing a mask, with a lot of stray hairs falling in front of his face.

Previously, agent Lao Chen found out Tao Li's whereabouts and said she was selling fried chicken in the food street and seemed quite happy.

Will she really be happy?

The face painted with mysterious totems flashed before Shen Silan's eyes; it seemed she was never happy.

For the past few years, she's been dragged here because of him, and all she does is curse him or want to kill him. Later, she even lured him to a room and tried to take off his clothes, as if she wanted to disembowel him, rip out his heart, and take his blood.

But he couldn't die; he hadn't found his wife yet.

The actress he had seen earlier was not the one he was looking for.

She would smile at him and talk to him, but she wasn't him; she just looked like him. Also, the fact that she was wearing period costume at the time, and the way she acted, captivated him.

"Shen Silan! You've finally arrived!"

Ah Li ran happily to Shen Si Lan. She hadn't even gone to him yet, and he had come to her of his own accord.

Shen Silan stopped. His eyes were filled with Ah Li's image and the joy she had shown when she called him Shen Silan. It was her; she was his wife.

Before Ah Li could react, Shen Silan hugged her tightly and said, "My wife, I've finally found you."

There were many pedestrians around them, and everyone seemed to suddenly speed up their comings and goings, but she remained quietly nestled in his arms.

Ah Li didn't move. What did this person just call her?

My wife?

Did he mistake someone for someone else?

Indeed, he had never seen the high priest's true appearance. The woman he brought with him had a veil covering her face, and no one could see her clearly.

Now it seems that the high priest and that woman look similar.

At this moment, Wan Qianqian looked at Ali. That must be her family member. The two of them looked quite well-matched.

Ah Li straightened her back, placed her hands on Shen Silan's shoulders, stood on tiptoe, and shouted into Shen Silan's ear: "General Shen, take a good look at who I am! I am the High Priest, not your wife!"

Shen Silan seemed to suddenly wake from a dream. He slowly released Ah Li. "Are you the High Priest?"

"Yes, I am the High Priest."

What do you look like?

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

Mysterious totems may be appealing, but they are ultimately strange and can be frightening.

There were several guests on Wan Qianqian's side. Ah Li said to Shen Silan, "General Shen, who did you take me for just now?"

"I must have misread it."

Shen Silan withdrew her gaze from Ah Li's face. She looked so much like her just now, but now she looked different.

In particular, she said she was the high priest and called him General Shen.

Therefore, she is the high priestess, not his wife.

Ali noticed that there were quite a few customers at Wan Qianqian's place. She said, "I need to go help out. Do you want to wait for me, or do you want to go ahead?"

Without hesitation, Shen Silan replied, "I'll wait for you."

Ali turned back to help, making lemon tea by hand, packing fried chicken nuggets, and drizzling them with the sauces ordered by the customers, including honey mustard, amber sweet sauce, creamy cheese, cumin powder, spicy powder, and the signature sweet and spicy combo.

Shen Silan walked up to the stall without anyone noticing, and watched Ah Li busy at work.

They're becoming more and more alike—their voices, their smiles, and the tenderness in their eyes.

Wan Qianqian stood to the side, feeling goosebumps all over her body. This person was really looking at Ah Li with such deep affection.

Ahri noticed it too, and her smile grew even sweeter.

This face can be used; it will be easy to obtain this person's virginity, and then having children won't be far off.

Tonight, the items at the stalls are selling the fastest.

Whether it's fried chicken nuggets, sweet potato fries, white rice noodles, or lemons, they're all sold out.

Ali helped Wan Qianqian pack, and Wan Qianqian asked Ali, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes, he came to see me."

"Then you can take these."

Wan Qianqian took a few hundred yuan and stuffed it into Ali's hand.

Ah Li pushed it back. In the past two days, this person bought her clothes, toiletries, and shoes. She helped out a little, but didn't do anything special.

Wan Qianqian wanted to give it to Ali, but Ali leaned against Wan Qianqian, secretly looked at Shen Silan, and said with a happy expression, "Really, you don't need to. He will take care of me."

Before leaving, Ahri said, "If you really want to become beautiful, try the method I mentioned earlier."

Wan Qianqian didn't take it seriously. She didn't care about beauty or ugliness anymore. Ah Li was so beautiful, yet she liked to draw strange things on her face to cover up her beauty.
