Qin Yune smiled and nodded, "I like it! The spider lilies are quite beautiful! Thank you, Sister Meng~"
Just then, Little Red jumped into Qin Yune's arms and cried out, "Chirp chirp chirp!"
Qin Yune caught it with lightning speed, almost dropping what she was holding, but the fluffy feel instantly put her in a good mood. "Little Red's here too?"
Before they could even get close, Meng Po quickly picked up Xiao Hong and took her back, swaying her in mid-air before reminding her, "Alright, it's opening day, Xiao Yu Nie is very busy, don't bother her."
Qin Yunie actually wanted to play with Xiao Hong for a while, but there were too many ghosts around, so she quickly said, "Brother Xie and the others are already in the private room upstairs. Sister Meng, I'll ask them to take you up."
Meng Po, with Xiao Hong in one hand and waving the other, said, "No need, I can go up by myself. You go ahead with your work."
She was about to leave when she remembered Qin Yune's current situation, paused, and said, "Shall I put these in while I'm at it?"
Qin Yunie was slightly taken aback, and looked down at the things in her hands and at her feet. "Then please help me put them upstairs, Sister Meng."
She didn't see Meng Po do anything else, but she saw the things stack up automatically, and she followed Meng Po upstairs.
As soon as Meng Po left, the other ghosts began to whisper among themselves.
"Is this Meng Po?"
"They do look somewhat alike. I never expected that even Meng Po would come to support Boss Qin!"
"This is Meng Po? I've never seen her before. She's quite pretty. Isn't Meng Po supposed to be an old woman?"
"It's normal that you haven't been to the Bridge of Helplessness and haven't seen much of it. Meng Po only comes here occasionally, and this one time was to celebrate the opening of Boss Qin's shop."
"I never expected that Boss Qin, who keeps such a low profile, would know so many ghost messengers. No wonder she, a living person, can run a restaurant in the underworld!"
Not only the ghosts watching on the scene, but even those ghosts who were familiar with Qin Yune sitting inside were extremely shocked. They never expected that Qin Yune would not only know Seven Master, Eight Master, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, but also Meng Po!
When Bi Luo arrived, the store was almost full.
Outside, a group of ghosts were drooling from the aroma of the various dishes inside the restaurant.
One ghost even suggested ordering a dish to try, which immediately drew agreement from the others. "How about this, we can each order one dish, or even five or six dishes, and then split the bill! Besides, didn't Boss Qin just say that everything is 50% off today? If we don't eat today, we might never have the chance again!"
His words immediately drew agreement from the other ghosts, who chimed in, "I think it's a good idea!"
Then a group of ghosts went in and filled the last table.
The moment the dishes were served, they felt completely satisfied. They were so glad they hadn't missed them, or they would have regretted it terribly.
When Pei Yan and Tang Yun arrived, Qin Yunie was so busy that he wished there were two of them.
When Qin Yunie suddenly saw two figures outside, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, which then blossomed into a wide smile. She had thought that Tang Yun had just casually agreed that day, but she hadn't expected her to actually come.
She quickly walked a few steps outside, went up to them, and called out, "Sister Tang Yun, Brother Pei Yan, you're here! Please come in. I thought you weren't coming."
Upon hearing Qin Yunie's address, Pei Yan paused, nodded slightly, and said, "I promised to come, and I won't go back on my word."
"Your shop is doing quite well today. By the way, these are opening gifts from Pei Yan and me." Tang Yun said, waving her hand, and immediately a pile of items containing strong spiritual energy appeared.
Qin Yunie pursed her lips slightly when she saw how many things they had given her. Although she didn't know what was inside, she could see the strong spiritual energy. Any one of these items could be sold for a lot of money. It was inappropriate to give them to her since they had only met once or twice.
Qin Yune shook his head and said, "Sister Tang Yun, I can't accept these things. They are too many and too valuable."
Tang Yun explained, "They're just some spiritual fruits, spiritual materials, and some jewelry and clothes; they're not anything valuable."
Of course, there were also many rare and precious materials, but Qin Yune didn't know that, and Tang Yun didn't intend to tell her either.
Before Qin Yunie could refuse, Pei Yan had already packed the things and floated them in mid-air, saying calmly, "People are coming from behind. These are blocking the way. Where should we put them?"
Whether it was an innate fear of Pei Yan that Qin Yune didn't know, as soon as Pei Yan spoke, she subconsciously replied, "Uh, upstairs."
She regretted it as soon as she said it.
However, before she could regret it, two figures suddenly appeared in mid-air that shocked all the ghosts. The one in the lead was upright and had a powerful aura.
It's the King of Hell.
Behind him was Judge Cui, who was a small step behind, holding a pen in one hand and the Book of Life and Death in the other.
Qin Yunie spotted Yan Wenjing at a glance. She had thought that the King of Hell probably wouldn't come to the opening of such a small restaurant, but she didn't expect him to come in person.
Qin Yune exclaimed with delight, "King Yama, what brings you here?"
Yan Wenjing's eyes held a hint of amusement, mixed with a touch of indulgence, as he said, "Well, after all, this is the opening of your first restaurant in the underworld. Come and take a look."
After saying that, he called out in a calm voice, "Judge Cui."
Qin Yune then noticed Judge Cui, who was following a small step behind King Yama. He then saw Judge Cui take out a plaque and say, "This is a shop sign personally written by King Yama and bestowed upon Boss Qin."
Everyone saw that the signboard read: The First Restaurant.
Four large characters.
The brushstrokes are sharp and the writing flows smoothly.
Qin Yunie immediately noticed the difference; the original reservation was for the First Restaurant, but King Yama changed it to the First Inn.
The difference between a restaurant and a tavern is not huge, but it's not insignificant either, especially when it comes to being the best or second best. In the underworld, that's unique.
Pei Yan could hear the joy in Qin Yunie's voice when he called Yan Wenjing "King Yama," mixed with a faint sense of anticipation for success. This peculiarity made him turn his head slightly and look at Yan Wenjing.
At this moment, whether it was the ghosts standing outside or the ghosts dining inside, they all stopped what they were doing in shock and held their breath the instant they saw King Yama.
It's the King of Hell!
He really is the King of Hell!
Even the King of Hell has come!!
If the arrival of Seventh Master, Eighth Master, and Meng Po was already enough to surprise them with Boss Qin's connections, now they've practically equated Boss Qin with someone they can't afford to mess with.
With such powerful backing, who else in the Underworld besides Boss Qin could possibly have such influence?!
For Mr. Qin to have such a small restaurant open, and for the King of Hell to personally bestow its name and write its signboard—what an incredible honor!
This is unique in the entire underworld!
