He Jing frowned and asked, "What good will it do you to make things difficult for me?"
They've only just met, and there's no conflict or hatred between them. Is this really necessary?
Zhu Qian choked, unable to say that she could gain a sense of superiority from her by doing this, and couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed: "I just don't like you."
He Jing: "...Okay."
She'd said all she wanted to say, so she could do whatever she wanted.
Zhu Qian added, "And your brothers, they look so poor, yet they're all so arrogant. I don't know what gives them the right to act so high and mighty."
He Jing laughed, her eyes gradually turning cold: "Because despite their poverty, they still possess kind and virtuous qualities, and they simply cannot get along with someone like you. You have to be aloof to avoid them."
Zhu Qian spat and said, "In this society, money is everything, kindness is worthless."
He Jing pursed her red lips and stared at her coldly.
Zhu Qian felt a sudden chill and took a step back, but then she remembered that He Jing couldn't do anything to her, so she regained her confidence and said with her chin held high, "What are you looking at? I'm not wrong."
He Jing remained silent and turned to walk away.
Zhu Qian initially thought He Jing was going to complain to Qian Lizhen again, so she rushed over and beat her to the punch. However, He Jing simply walked towards He Ning, who was grilling meat. He Ning glanced at her sideways, her calm and serene voice filled with concern:
"What's wrong?"
He Jing said expressionlessly, "It's nothing, Second Brother, you can rest for a while."
Anyway, they won't sell out quickly after they're baked.
He Ning paused for a moment, and actually stopped. He put down the barbecue, took off his apron, and asked, "What did Zhu Qian say to you just now?"
He Jing said, "I didn't say anything. I was just bored by myself, so I came to talk to my second brother."
He Ning stopped talking. Anyone with eyes could see that He Jing was in a bad mood. He wasn't good at comforting people, so he just stayed quietly by her side.
After witnessing He Jing instigating He Ning to slack off, Zhu Qian felt as if she had caught something important and immediately ran to Qian Lizhen to complain. Qian Lizhen was busy greeting guests, and when she turned around, she found that He Ning had actually stopped. Her face immediately turned sour, and she strode over to them.
Ignoring He Jing standing to the side, she scolded He Ning with dissatisfaction: "The guests are waiting, Second Brother, hurry up and stop slacking off."
He Jing raised her head, her eyes extremely cold, and said indifferently, "He doesn't need to work anymore."
"Why!?"
"because……"
Before He Jing could finish speaking, an extremely rich fragrance suddenly burst forth, like a level 10 bomb dropped from the sky, instantly engulfing everyone.
The aroma was spicy, sweet, and salty. Strangely enough, even though they only smelled it, they felt as if they were tasting it. Everyone saw a clear image in their minds: they were wearing straw skirts and straw hats, holding wooden forks, circling around a plump, juicy roasted suckling pig by the campfire.
In their bodies, billions of cells trembled; in their stomachs, gastric juices churned like magma, as if they wanted to immediately claim the source of this smell as their own, like possessing a lost treasure.
Then, everyone within a ten-mile radius seemed to lose control, frantically rushing towards the source of the fragrance, not even caring about where they were going.
Qian Lizhen was stunned. She stood there, drooling uncontrollably. When she came to her senses, there were no customers left at Zhu's snack stall. It was like a locust plague, leaving nothing but barren land.
Who could resist such an exquisite fragrance?
Even Zhu Rui, the youngest son of the Zhu family, who was engrossed in playing video games, couldn't.
