Chapter 286 The Happiness of the Crowd
The little girl shook her head firmly again, tilted her head thoughtfully, thought for a while, and said to An Xin.
"No, sister. My parents will scold me. If you really want to treat me to cake, why don't you go in and buy a few more cakes. We have a new kind of old cream cake. It's delicious."
An Xin looked at the little girl's innocent and cute face and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
"Oh, really?"
The little girl nodded sensibly.
"Of course, you'll know when you go in!"
An Xin smiled. The gentle way.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you and go in and take a look."
As he said that, he walked in. The store was not big, but it was spotless. Various freshly baked cakes were neatly placed on the counter. It was obvious that the owner was very attentive.
Each piece of cake is carefully placed on oilcloth, with a gardenia and rose petals placed next to it, which makes people feel relaxed and happy just by looking at it.
It can be seen that the hostess of this store is a woman who enjoys life very much.
Just as An Xin was making all kinds of guesses about the owner's taste, a clear and soft voice came from the side.
"Welcome, feel free to look at anything you like. Our cake shop is newly opened today, so you can enjoy buy one get one free."
An Xin looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl in a white cotton skirt. She had a pretty and gentle appearance, a sweet smile on her face, and two beautiful dimples at the corners of her mouth. She was wearing a white chef's hat on her head and a white jacket with the words "a certain cake shop" embroidered on it in fine thread.
It was obvious that this woman was the hostess of this store. An Xin felt particularly cordial when she saw the hostess. It was not that this woman had a popular face, but that this woman exuded a quiet and gentle aura, which was particularly comfortable and made people feel peaceful as soon as they saw her.
This must be the legendary quiet woman who is suitable for both home and family.
If a man marries a woman like this, he will probably be happy every day. After all, with such a gentle woman by his side, the male owner of this store must be a happy man.
Of course, An Xin was secretly complaining in her heart, but she responded without leaving a trace.
"Really? I just came in to have a look because I saw your new store opened. You don't have to entertain me. Go and do your work. I'll take a look and make some purchases later."
Hearing An Xin's words, the hostess of the store smiled even sweeter, her eyes turned into crescent shapes, which was particularly beautiful.
"Okay, ma'am, please feel free to do as you please. If you like anything, you can try it for free."
After saying that, he nodded to Anxin and walked into the operation room to start making pastries.
An Xin looked at her back with a smile in her eyes. She strolled between the pastry shops, smelling the sweet aroma floating in the air, and began to choose her favorite pastries.
Just then, a tall man walked in. Anxin's eyes were attracted by the various cakes in the store and she didn't notice the man's arrival.
After the man came in, he walked to the only reception desk in the cake shop, sat down, and spoke in a vigorous voice.
"Madam, I want two old breads. The old breads should have strawberry jam inside and old butter on the outside."
When An Xin suddenly heard the voice, she felt it was a little familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
But I can’t remember where I heard it? When she looked up, she saw the man with his back to her. From Anxin's angle, she couldn't see clearly who the man was who was talking. She had no choice but to lower her head and continue choosing the cake.
After all, these days, there are so many people whose voices are familiar, and they may not necessarily be people you know. Since the person has his back to her, there is no need for her to go to the trouble of running up to him just to see a man clearly. That would be so rude.
The gentle woman who was working in the operation room raised her head and responded after hearing what this man said.
"Hey, coming right up!"
As he said this, he put down the work in his hands, picked up a freshly baked bread next to him, processed it on the spot according to the man's instructions, and then wrapped it in oil paper.
Then, An Xin saw the boss lady open the door of the operation room and walked quickly to the man. When she was about to hand the bread in her hand to him, her body could not help but stiffen, and she heard the boss lady's gentle and calm voice.
"Why is it you?"
At the same time, the man who was sitting with his back to Anxin straightened his body, then stood up from his chair, stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief, and said the same thing.
"Shuyao, why is it you?"
As soon as the man's voice came out, An Xin understood this time. This man was indeed her acquaintance. Wasn't he Su Yipeng?
Does Su Yipeng know the owner of this bakery? How come she didn't expect that? She hadn't seen Su Yipeng for a long time, and they met again in a cake shop, and in this way.
An Xin planned to keep silent and just stand by the counter as a spectator, continuing to choose her own bread. What would happen if she heard what these two people said? Just go over and say hello.
The proprietress and Su Yipeng obviously knew each other. She put the bread in her hand on the table and spoke in a colder voice than before.
"Sir, this is the bread you ordered. Jam and butter have been added as you requested. Please pay the bill. The total is two dollars."
After saying that, he didn't even glance at Su Yipeng and was about to walk into the operating room.
Su Yipeng stood up quickly and grabbed the boss's arm when she was about to walk into the operating room.
Then, Su Yipeng did something that even surprised the audience An Xin.
Su Yipeng grabbed the proprietress's hand forcefully, and before she could react, he pulled the gentle proprietress into his arms.
"Shuyao, how long do you want to hide from me?"
At this moment, An Xin was a little confused when she saw the two people hugging each other tightly not far away, but the first reaction of her brain was.
"There must be something fishy going on between these two people. What's going on between that gentle-looking woman and a mature and steady man like Su Yipeng?"
In an instant, An Xin suddenly found the joy of being a spectator and wanted to hide aside to watch how things between the two developed.
I also feel that this is too much of a show. Why should we hide and watch? Wouldn't it be better to just watch it openly?
So, An Xin stood in front of the counter, pretending to continue choosing bread, but she was always paying attention to the developments of the two people opposite her out of the corner of her eye.
