Unexpectedly, Wu Lili wasn't angry at all, and even came closer with a smile.
"Qingyu, please accept this. I've been cooking it for a long time, and it's very sweet!"
Lin Qingyu ignored her completely and went downstairs. Unexpectedly, Wu Lili chased after her.
"Qingyu, don't go! It's really good, and it's good for the baby in your belly too!"
Lin Qingyu grew impatient with Wu Lili's pursuit. The two walked all the way to the entrance of the residential area, and Wu Lili still tried to give it to her.
Finally, Lin Qingyu had no choice but to snatch it away, saying, "I'm taking it. You should go home now!"
After saying that, he walked away again. This time, at least Wu Lili didn't chase after him, probably because she really just wanted to give him the item.
Lin Qingyu had been pregnant for a long time, and her belly was getting bigger and bigger, so Gu Shi stopped letting her ride a bicycle.
If they suggested picking her up and dropping her off every day, Lin Qingyu would prefer to walk around on her own to avoid not getting enough exercise, which would be bad for her health.
So now she walks to the restaurant every day, which doesn't take much time. She strolls there leisurely, and it takes less than half an hour.
She arrived exceptionally early because it was the day the business was reopening.
There were hardly any people on the road. Gu Shi hadn't gone home last night, and Li Xiuhua had gone to the restaurant early to help out.
Nothing much happened along the way, except that as soon as Lin Qingyu arrived at the restaurant, she saw people arguing.
Originally, it was supposed to be a grand opening, but when Lin Qingyu saw this, her brow twitched.
"What happened?"
She walked into the crowd and immediately spotted Jiang Lili sitting on the ground.
Jiang Lili was sitting on the ground, pounding her fists on the ground and shouting, "Where did you hide him? Give him back to me!"
Then Jiang Lili's gaze wandered around and finally landed on Lin Qingyu.
Zhou Jiahui was whispering to Lin Qingyu when she suddenly saw Jiang Lili jump up from the ground out of the corner of her eye.
"It's you, you bitch! Give Xiaobao back to me! Did you hide Xiaobao?"
Zhou Jiahui immediately hugged Lin Qingyu and moved aside.
Faced with Jiang Lili's outburst, no one expected that she could communicate normally on the first day she arrived.
Seeing that she hadn't managed to knock Lin Qingyu down, Jiang Lili turned around and tried to ram her head into Lin Qingyu's stomach.
Seeing that the situation was not good, they quickly grabbed her again.
And so, Jiang Lili was caught by several young men in the kitchen, and this time none of them dared to let her go.
I saw it all just now; Jiang Lili did it on purpose, aiming for Lin Qingyu's stomach.
How could you be like this? We were pleading for you just a few days ago!
"Exactly! You're so cruel! You have children of your own, you're a mother yourself, how can you be so vicious?"
"I think we should send her to the police station and lock her up for a few days, otherwise she won't even know why the flowers are so red!"
Lin Qingyu was still somewhat shaken. She held her stomach with her hand and grabbed Zhou Jiahui's arm next to her.
"This year has been so unlucky! Let's not open for business today. I'll choose an auspicious day later!"
Lin Qingyu instructed her subordinates that business was off today, as there were still so many people watching the spectacle!
The police then took the people away, while one officer stayed behind to ask if anyone was injured.
Zhou Jiahui pulled Lin Qingyu aside and said to the man, "Officer, you must stand up for our boss!"
As she spoke, Zhou Jiahui pushed Lin Qingyu forward, letting everyone see Lin Qingyu's large belly.
"Officer! Look, our boss's wife is heavily pregnant. What if that crazy woman bumps into her?"
She became more and more agitated as she spoke, "Police officer..."
"Alright, alright, I meant, are you injured? If you're not injured, you're not injured, why are you saying so much!"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Qingyu's restaurant again.
"So they're planning to open today? You guys are really unlucky. This woman seems to have something wrong with her head!"
Before leaving, the police officer said something meaningful.
Only then did everyone believe that Jiang Lili really had a problem.
I just don't know how she got here, coming from the countryside to the city with her child.
By the way, isn't Jiang Lili still taking care of her child? Where is her child?
Lin Qingyu wanted to ask the policeman if he knew the whereabouts of Jiang Lili's child.
But since they were in a hurry to leave, she didn't ask.
After the farce, everyone in the shop felt utterly disheartened.
The grand opening, which had been so painstakingly prepared for so long, was so easily ruined by one person.
Moreover, the small restaurant has become famous again, and many people have witnessed Jiang Lili causing trouble. It may be really difficult for it to return to the way it was before.
"If you ask me, we should have called the police and had her arrested back then, so this wouldn't have happened today!"
"Who knew she was this kind of person? If we had known, who would have tolerated her!"
"Exactly! They say hindsight is always 20/20, and now we've certainly learned that lesson the hard way!"
Everyone was arguing indignantly, while Lin Qingyu sat at the counter, gently stroking her stomach with her right hand.
Li Xiuhua walked over to her and patted Lin Qingyu on the shoulder.
"It's alright, Mother will find a fortune teller to help you choose an auspicious day!"
In fact, Li Xiuhua herself had been busy all morning and was also looking forward to the sound of firecrackers celebrating the grand opening.
But now it's really impossible to continue.
Lin Qingyu sighed heavily, "Alright, let's talk about this later!"
She originally intended to go straight home, but there was still a lot of work to be done at the shop.
With no other option, Lin Qingyu could only send her employees home first. She distributed the dishes she had prepared for the day, and each person took a little before going home.
As the two walked home, Lin Qingyu couldn't help but sigh.
"Mom, why is it that when someone is down on their luck, they just keep getting so unlucky?"
Seeing her daughter like this, Li Xiuhua felt bad too, and she took something out of her pocket.
"These are sugar cakes that I bought on my way here. I noticed you haven't had a chance to eat any all morning. Have one to tide you over!"
The sugar cakes were still warm, and it was unclear when Li Xiuhua had bought them.
However, Lin Qingyu was indeed hungry. She often felt hungry these days, not because she couldn't get enough to eat, but because she got hungry very quickly.
She silently took it and ate it bite by bite.
"Don't overthink it. You're pregnant, and it's normal to have all sorts of worries during pregnancy. It's okay!"
Like an ordinary mother, Li Xiuhua patted Lin Qingyu on the shoulder, comforting her.
Lin Qingyu suddenly remembered that she wasn't like this before. Could it be that she was so sentimental because of her pregnancy?
"Alright, alright, Mom, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go home!"
Although Lin Qingyu's mood didn't improve, her face was no longer as gloomy as before.
