"If you don't like me, then don't do these things that make me misunderstand, and don't say these things that are so easy for me to misunderstand." Qin Yune said, tears streaming down her face like a broken string of pearls, one after another, until she even choked up at the end, "Otherwise, I'm afraid I... I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back..."
In the end, even though she didn't say the whole sentence, Yan Wenjing vaguely understood what she meant.
Upon hearing this, Yan Wenjing's expression changed slightly, seemingly a mixture of shock and something else, before finally becoming complex.
...
After that night, Qin Yunie continued doing what she was supposed to do, but she worked even harder than before.
That night she specially made a lot of pastries and worked on them until the early hours of the morning. She also practiced her internal energy all night. As soon as the rooster crowed in the morning, she got up, tidied herself up, and then steamed all the pastries.
When Aunt Wang and the others arrived, her pastries were all cooked, and the whole house was filled with their aroma.
Smelling the aroma, Sister-in-law Wang saw Qin Yune carrying a steamer full of pastries. Her gaze fell on the pastries, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Why is Boss Qin up so early today?"
Hearing the voice, Qin Yunie turned around and replied with a smile, "Yes, I woke up early. I promised to make pastries for them yesterday, and since I had nothing else to do, I got up early to do it."
Widow Li's gaze fell on Qin Yunie, and she murmured to herself, "I feel like there's something different about Boss Qin."
Unexpectedly, Wang's sister-in-law overheard this and began to scrutinize Qin Yune, nodding as she looked at her. "She's different now, she seems even more beautiful, her skin looks radiant. Hey? Why does it seem like Boss Qin has grown taller?"
"Really? Let me see."
Hearing this, Aunt Wang also started to look at her. "She does look a bit taller, but it's probably not because she's grown taller, it's probably just an optical illusion. But why is Yu Nie's skin getting better and better since she came back? She was pretty before, but now it feels like... how should I put it..."
Sister-in-law Wang immediately chimed in, "Even more alluring!"
Aunt Wang said irritably, "What do you mean by 'more alluring'? That's called 'attractive'!"
Qin Yunie couldn't help but laugh out loud while listening to their conversation.
Her smile abruptly halted their conversation, as if a pause button had been pressed. Immediately afterward, they both turned their gazes toward Qin Yunie.
Wang's sister-in-law said somewhat embarrassedly, "Boss Qin, we just think you're good-looking, we didn't mean to talk about you behind your back."
Qin Yune waved her hand with a smile and said, "I know, have you aunties had breakfast yet? If not, come in and have some. The pastries are fresh out of the oven and still warm. They taste pretty good. Take some back with you for your families later."
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Wang beamed with joy, unable to stop smiling. "That's wonderful! These pastries smell so delicious; we're in for a treat!"
Widow Li was also all smiles. Boss Qin's cooking skills were excellent; everything he made tasted delicious. She was overjoyed at the thought of taking such delicious pastries back to her children.
Aunt Wang was happy, but still asked, "If we all eat it, will we run out?"
Qin Yunie smiled and said, "No, I did a lot today."
At this time, Aunt Wang and the others did not know how much Qin Yune meant when she said she made a lot. They thought that given the complexity of the pastries, there couldn't be too much, since Qin Yune couldn't possibly get up in the middle of the night to make them.
They were all stunned when they entered the kitchen and saw what was happening.
Is this considered a bit too much?
That's a lot!
Everywhere you look, Qin Yunie has filled everything that can be filled. They are densely packed everywhere. I counted them quickly and there were two or three hundred left to dry. It is said that some of them have been put away because they have cooled down. In total, there are at least several hundred or even a thousand. There are even some being steamed in the pot.
That's indeed a lot...
Aunt Wang asked in a daze, "Can we sell all of these?"
Qin Yunie subconsciously replied, "Yeah, I want the ghost..."
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly realized he had made a slip of the tongue and quickly corrected himself, saying, "Um... there are quite a lot of people."
Aunt Wang nodded with some doubt, "That's fine, as long as we can sell them all and avoid waste."
Qin Yunie thought to himself: There are so many ghost messengers and so many ghosts in the underworld. Even if we can't sell them all, we will definitely not waste them.
But she couldn't say this to Aunt Wang, so she just smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, it won't be wasted."
Then Aunt Wang and the others put on aprons, rolled up their sleeves, washed their hands, and began to help Qin Yune pack and air-dry the pastries.
With their help, the pastries and boxed lunches were quickly prepared.
Qin Yunie and her team moved things many times before finally getting everything into the food cart.
They then traveled to the underworld together with the food truck.
When Qin Yunie arrived, he found that there were an unusually large number of ghosts today. There were hundreds of ghosts just queuing for boxed lunches, and with the delivery people, the once empty space suddenly became less empty.
Just then, someone shouted, "Boss Qin is here!"
In an instant, all the ghosts who had just been excitedly discussing yesterday's events turned to look in Qin Yunie's direction.
Being stared at by so many ghosts at once, even though Qin Yu Nie was used to it, her heart couldn't help but skip a beat. But in an instant, she smiled and said, "Today, there are only 1,000 pastries available. First come, first served. Each ghost may not buy more than three at a time."
As soon as Qin Yunie said this, a chorus of wails erupted.
"Boss Qin, why is it limited?! Can I buy ten?!"
The moment the ghost finished speaking, the ghost behind him shouted angrily, "No way! If you buy so many, what about the rest of us?!"
The ghost behind immediately chimed in with a mournful tone, "That's right! Boss Qin, why didn't you make more? There are only a thousand, and there are hundreds of ghosts queuing up here. If they all buy three, none of us behind will be able to buy any!"
The guys who got the 50% off coupons yesterday immediately said excitedly, "Boss Qin! I'll buy first! I want three pastries, plus a boxed lunch, a bottle of wine, and a bundle of incense."
Qin Yunie neatly packed it into a bag and handed it over, saying, "It's 40 ghost coins in total."
"Is this what a 50% discount looks like? This is amazing! I bought so much and only spent so little ghost money!"
"Why wasn't I there yesterday! If I had known this was going to happen, I would have been the first to rush over!"
"Who can argue with that!"
Many who heard about yesterday's events later regretted their actions.
The ghost who bought the items excitedly handed over the prepared ghost money, and the next ghost also asked for three pastries.
Almost all the ghosts ordered three pastries, except for a small number who didn't have that much money left and only ordered one pastry to taste.
