Fang Rufan finally understood why this thousand-layer cake was so expensive.
She had heard her roommates talk about the difference between animal-based and vegetable-based cream.
Moreover, the kind of crepes she usually eats have particularly thick and hard crusts, and she only eats the cream inside those kinds of crepes.
However, after eating vegetable shortening, I always feel greasy and want to eat something else to mask the taste.
Some layered boxes have only three or four layers of skin, with some fruit or Oreo powder mixed in.
In short, she had never eaten a mille-feuille that looked so beautiful and exquisite.
She originally thought that the mango passion fruit mille-feuille was the best mille-feuille dessert she had ever seen.
Later, I discovered that the owner also had Cool Black Mulberry Mille Crepe.
The way the reddish-purple jam and cream blended together looked so appetizing.
She really wanted to eat it too, but her wallet was too thin!
No, I'll go and beg Mommy for the money I need before I come to spend it.
Fang Rufan said to Qin Yi with great embarrassment, "I'm sorry, boss, I don't have enough money on me. I'll come back to buy it tomorrow."
Qin Yi smiled and said, "It's okay, come again when you have time. Go home early, don't catch a cold."
Fang Rufan's embarrassment and helplessness disappeared with the boss's heartwarming words.
She was thinking that she must bring money to buy mille-feuille tomorrow, and she would buy two pieces at a time!
...
Has she left?
"They're gone."
"Are you sure? What if they suddenly turn around and attack again? That would be awkward."
"Oh, I'm sure! I saw her walk into the school gate and head towards the dormitory."
"Oh! I can finally come out! I'm so cute from all this rain!"
"Ah~! Yue~~~, Bedor, you need to control yourself, I'm getting goosebumps all over!"
Bedor: "Oh dear! I've heard that cuteness is contagious. You're all so close to me, be careful you don't become as cute as me!"
Five furtive girls emerged from behind a wall.
Ning Zhi, the dormitory head of room 202, has a strong leadership style.
He said, "Everyone, stop fooling around, let's get down to business."
Bedo: "Boss, did you guys see Fanfan really want to eat that mille-feuille just now, but he didn't buy it in the end?"
Roommate A: "Yes! She lingered at that mille-feuille stall for a full five minutes, going through the process of being attracted, wanting to possess it, observing it carefully, and finally leaving helplessly."
Ning Zhi: "You guys observed that closely? So she must really want to eat that mille-feuille, right?"
Roommates: "Yes!"
Ningzhi then asked, "Then why didn't she buy it?"
Bedouin: "Fanfan's smile disappeared the moment she took out her phone. I guess it's because 1. she had no money; 2. she was short of money; or 3. she didn't have enough money."
The other four people in dormitory 202 all rolled their eyes at Bedo.
"Hearing your words is like hearing a lecture."
Ning Zhi: "We were already celebrating Fanfan's birthday in our dorm at this time, but who knew that the unreliable seller we found on WeChat would completely forget about our order! I don't know if they really forgot or if they just didn't make it because of the weather and delivery was difficult. They only refunded our deposit at 7 p.m., which made us run out late at night to buy a birthday cake."
My roommate asked, "Hey, should we go to that birthday cake shop near the school gate or get this mille-feuille cake that Fanfan wants?"
Beiduoer: "That cake shop near the school gate is no good. Not only are the designs ugly, but the cream is also too sweet. I've heard that vegetable cream is unhealthy. We always buy beautiful cakes from other cake shops for our birthdays. If we give this to Fanfan, she'll feel disappointed."
Ning Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Let's go check out the quality of this thousand-layer cake first."
While they were talking.
Qin Yi's mille-feuille shop was discovered by some students who had just graduated from school.
They had never seen such beautiful food stalls or such exquisite desserts near their school.
Although the price is a bit high, most girls accepted the concept after seeing the finished 1000-layer ornaments and product descriptions.
Some of the girls who arrived later didn't understand and asked the owner, "Why is this mille-feuille so expensive?"
Immediately, enthusiastic senior female students will sit on the stools, eating and patiently explaining: "This is the price of the animal cream mille-feuille. The mille-feuille I bought in the city center is not as good as this, nor does it look as good, and it costs 68 yuan a piece. It's a total rip-off."
"This mille-feuille will win you over from the very first bite. It smells so good, and it's not the cheap kind of artificial flavoring or jam. It's a natural fruity aroma."
"The cream melts in your mouth with every bite, and the crepe layers are incredibly delicate. It's not greasy at all; instead, it's full of a sweet and slightly sour milky flavor."
"The top layer, which is shiny like jelly, is really good. It has a mix of mango and passion fruit flavors, and it's not too sour, but it feels refreshing."
"I've tried mango mille-feuille from many places, but I've never found one that suits my taste so well. It's absolutely delicious! If you haven't bought one yet, hurry up and buy one! I'm going to pack one to take home and eat it tomorrow morning!"
The students standing in front of the van, hearing the familiar senior student's strong recommendation, felt that they would really miss out if they didn't try it. Even if they got ripped off, it would only cost fifty yuan, and what if it tasted good?
"I'll have one!"
"Boss, I'll have one too, can you pack it to go?"
"Does the boss only have two flavors? Give me one of each, that'll be exactly one hundred yuan, right?"
Qin Yi nodded and said, "That's right, we only have these two flavors today. I make two different flavors of mille-feuille every day. Once these two flavors are sold out today, we won't make any more!"
"Huh!? It's a limited edition?"
Girls hate hearing the word "limited edition".
Upon hearing the owner mention that tomorrow's mille-feuille would be a different flavor, the previously composed customers became somewhat excited.
"Buying one is the same as buying two, and it's exactly 100 yuan, so I might as well try each flavor and not regret it later."
"I won't be able to eat these two flavors tomorrow? Waaaaah~~~ What flavor of mille-feuille will the boss sell tomorrow?"
Qin Yi replied, "I haven't decided what kind of mille-feuille to sell tomorrow, and I don't even know if I'll be setting up a stall here again..."
"What!"
"What did you say!"
