She definitely wouldn't eat a single extra bite!
With this in mind, Zhu Qian and Zhu Qiang squeezed into the frenzied crowd at Xiao Lin's food stall. After enduring two hours of barely perceptible groping and being squeezed by a group of men until she was sweating profusely, she finally managed to buy some barbecue.
Qian Lizhen was almost full. She was chubby and none of the others had the strength to grab a table. She stood there steadily, occupying the front row seat, eating and buying at the same time. Even Zhu Rui didn't exert as much effort as her.
Zhu Qiang also bought some barbecue. He met Xiao Lin's gaze as he was grilling the meat, and after noticing the other's meaningful look, his expression became even more unpleasant.
Xiaolin's eyes seemed to say, "Evil will be punished by Heaven; it's just a matter of time." This made Xiaolin's blood boil, and he almost couldn't help but feel angry and ashamed.
He took the barbecue and retreated away from the crowd, standing with Zhu Qian. Zhu Qian held the barbecue but hadn't taken a bite yet, her brows furrowed in hesitation, as if she were holding poison.
Zhu Qiang glanced at her, ignored her, and took a big bite of the roasted meat in a fit of anger.
Suddenly, his expression froze—
The pungent flavor shot straight to his throat, making him want to cough, but the abnormally exhilarating sensation that could rip open his skull made him wish he could instantly transform into a screaming chicken. The tender meat was surrounded by a crispy shell, and with a slight press of his teeth, the smooth, fragrant oil oozed out from the meat. He smelled the aroma of roasted meat, not as if it were being dipped on, but as if it were wafting from under his tongue. Instantly, he felt as if he were in a mysterious farm, with hundreds of acres of fertile land planted with herbs swaying in the wind, and he was buried in this fertile soil...
When Zhu Qian saw his expression, her expression became even stranger. She wondered with some doubt, could the barbecue at Xiao Lin's food stall really be that delicious, so delicious that Zhu Qiang was speechless?
No!
She didn't believe it.
Zhu Qiang was not happy at all during the meal. It must be because the barbecue at Xiao Lin's food stall was too bad. As for Qian Lizhen and Zhu Rui, they just hadn't had barbecue in a long time!
She snorted and, defiantly, stuffed the roasted meat into her mouth.
Then……
Her eyes widened in shock.
Is this delicious barbecue really night market barbecue, or something else?
She went to eat barbecue with her classmates, which cost over a thousand yuan per person, but it wasn't even half as good as this barbecue. She couldn't believe it!
She didn't believe He Jing could make such delicious barbecue. With that skill, she could open her own shop and become famous. If she were really that capable, why didn't she show it to them long ago? The He family could have made a fortune off her!
A whole host of such thoughts flashed through her mind. She had long forgotten that He Jing had been switched at birth and had only recently returned to the He family. This was also her second time visiting the Zhu family.
After finishing the barbecue, Zhu Qian was in a daze for a long time. She sucked on the metal skewers of barbecue and licked her fingers, still wanting more.
She wanted to eat barbecue, but Xiao Lin's food stall was already sold out. It was only 12 o'clock, and he had sold out his overnight supply.
Xiao Lin made a fortune, and his smile was more genuine than usual. As he packed up his stall, he deliberately raised his voice and said, "Fortune comes and goes. Do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Do more good deeds in your daily life."
The meaning couldn't be clearer...
Losing his business and being ridiculed, Zhu Qiang was so angry that his face turned pale. He turned around and went home, suppressing his anger.
Zhu Qian snapped out of her daze and rushed to Xiao Lin, asking, "When did you and He Jing start working together? Were you already having an affair?"
Xiao Lin smiled and seemed to have a good temper: "Little girl, don't speak so harshly. What do you mean by 'getting something done'? It was clearly Miss He's one-sided assistance."
