His tone was cold and hard. Shen Yingxue didn't know what made him unhappy. She felt a little aggrieved. She silently put the cake on the table, turned around and went back to the counter.
Shen Yingxue's dim sum shop has tables and chairs, leaving a place for customers to rest, but the tables and chairs are relatively small. Guo Zhao is already tall and strong, so sitting in the chair is a bit crowded, so he nestles in the seat, Looking at the cake in front of him, and then at the woman opposite him, Guo Zhao pursed his lips tightly, and a flash of guilt flashed in his eyes. He was clearly thinking about her, but he deliberately said hurtful words to make her sad. Guo Zhao's cold face was a little bit... At a loss.
Shen Yingxue entertained the guests outside and knew nothing about what was going on behind her. After an unknown amount of time, Guo Zhao suddenly called her.
"Help me pack the rest."
She raised her eyes and saw that most of the cake on his plate was still left, the cream was not touched, and the cup on the table was empty.
Guo Zhao lowered his eyes, his face a little unnatural. He didn't like sweets. Even though the sweetness of the snacks made by Shen Yingxue was moderate, he still felt greasy. But in order to stay with Shen Yingxue longer, he still endured the greasy taste. Half a piece.
"good."
Shen Yingxue could more or less guess that he didn't like sweets, so it was hard enough for him to eat half a piece. She felt angry and funny. Since she didn't like snacks, why did she come to her shop?
"If my benefactor doesn't like sweets, you can try the kebabs next door. They are spicy and delicious, fat but not greasy. You will definitely like them."
"No need." Guo Zhao suddenly raised his head, knowing that his thoughts were seen through, and he regretted not finishing the cake, but he still wanted to see Shen Yingxue, how could he admit that he didn't like sweets.
"I like snacks, but I ate too much this morning. I'm not hungry yet. When I come back on an empty stomach tomorrow, I will eat them all."
He was anxious to argue and talked more than usual. Shen Yingxue almost laughed out loud, but she could also understand that Guo Zhao was not completely cold. He also wanted to see her, so he came to the dim sum shop.
Shen Yingxue felt sweet in her heart, and the depression on her face dissipated, revealing a smile.
"If you like, you can try mung bean cake and hawthorn pot cake, both of which are not too sweet."
Guo Zhao was dazzled by her smile, and the coldness on his face gradually melted away.
"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow."
She was open to do business, but she couldn't stop him from coming. Why did she go out of her way to say so, as if she was thinking about him if he didn't come?
Shen Yingxue grabbed the hem of her clothes, unable to suppress the smile on her lips, and glared at him angrily.
"Whatever you want."
She doesn't care whether love comes or not.
Guo Zhao was not angry even after being glared at, and felt very happy in his heart. He should have felt uncomfortable when Shen Yingxue ignored him, and being willing to smile at him showed that he still had hope.
Guo Zhao carried the snacks back to the inn with satisfaction. He couldn't wait until tomorrow. It would be great if he could see Yingxue every day. He would also be willing to eat snacks that would kill him every day.
But when he went to the shop with great expectations early the next morning, he saw an annoying person in the shop again.
"Ms. Shen, what snacks do you have today?"
Song Lian changed into a sapphire blue brocade robe today, with a jade crown on her head, a valuable piece of warm jade around her waist, and a different folding fan in her hand, but she still exuded a romantic temperament.
His body was close to the counter, only an arm's length away from Shen Yingxue. Shen Yingxue could smell the scent of powder on his body. She stepped back and retreated to the snack shelf before returning to him.
"Hawthorn pot helmet, mung bean cake, chestnut cake, peach cake and cake, what do Mr. Song want?"
Song Lian saw that she was avoiding him like a snake and a scorpion, and a flash of interest flashed in his eyes.
"Why are today's snacks so plain? Except for cakes, none of them are sweet. I like sweets and want to eat puffs. How about Madam Shen make one for me alone? Anyway, I have plenty of time and can afford to wait!"
As he said that, he lifted up his robe and entered the shop, sitting on the chair next to Shen Yingxue. His toes were almost touching hers. Shen Yingxue hurriedly stepped back, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"That's all we have today. If there's nothing Mr. Song likes, we'd better leave as soon as possible. Maybe there's something Mr. Song wants in other shops."
"Drive me away?"
Song Lian leaned forward suddenly, his face almost touching hers, his breath sprayed on the tip of her nose, and Shen Yingxue's face suddenly turned red.
Of course she was not shy, but angry.
This Mr. Song was simply a slut, his behavior was frivolous, and Shen Yingxue hated him from the bottom of her heart.
Song Lian thought she was shy, and tapped her palms with her fan, a determined smile flashed in her eyes, looking like a rogue.
"If Mrs. Shen doesn't do it for me, I won't leave."
"you!"
Shen Yingxue was so angry that her body was shaking. She put her hands beside her and clenched her fists tightly, trying her best to suppress the urge to slap him.
Song Lian felt more and more proud and wanted to continue teasing her. Suddenly, a person came in front of him. A black knife was placed on the table in front of him. The blade was sharp and the strong wind it brought cut off his hair. Lian felt cold and cold, and his body retreated voluntarily.
"Give me a portion of each of today's snacks. I want to eat them here."
After Guo Zhao finished speaking, he sat opposite Song Lian. He was tall and strong, blocking Song Lian's sight, and his face was cold and solemn, naturally threatening. Song Lian was a little timid towards him.
"This good man, why don't you change positions?"
Guo Zhao's eyelids were slightly raised, his dark eyes showing no emotion at all.
"No change!"
"Benefactor, your snack."
Shen Yingxue quickly packed the snacks and placed them in front of him. Knowing that he didn't like sweets, she also prepared a pot of tea.
Guo Zhao came to her rescue, and she felt grateful in her heart. With Guo Zhao in charge, Song Lian didn't dare to tease her anymore.
"Benefactor? Do you know him?"
Song Lian looked as if he had been deceived, and Guo Zhao's already cold face became even colder.
Shen Yingxue looked embarrassed, dragging Guo Zhao into it even though it was her trouble.
"Mr. Song, if you don't want to buy anything, please leave quickly. I still have business to do."
"Who says I won't buy it? Just like him, I will get one of each."
Song Lian was alert, and his intuition told him that the man in front of him would be his strong rival. Shen Yingxue was more trusting and close to him than she was. How could he leave at this time and give the two of them a chance to be alone.
Shen Yingxue had no choice but to turn around and prepare snacks. Song Lian took advantage of her leaving to give Guo Zhao harsh words.
"Ms. Shen, I am bound to win. If you know better, you should leave quickly, otherwise I will make you look good!"
Guo Zhao raised his head and glanced at him lightly, but he was just a pretty face, he could crush him to death with one finger. Guo Zhao didn't want to argue with him. It was her own choice who Shen Yingxue wanted to marry, even if he liked her I can't make decisions for him either.
