Chapter 1 So Moisturizing

  ps：

  Thanks for the reward of 588 fragrant sachets from [Chu Qin Ge]!

  I'm so sorry for the delay today due to word count reasons!

  After that day's conversation with A Qian and Mu Mu, my mood finally cleared up again, and a colorful rainbow appeared.

  Thinking it over, the people I love and who love me are all around me, I haven't encountered any disasters yet, nor have I ***, my hobbies and wealth are both not neglected, what's there to be unhappy about? And so I started to become even more satisfied with my life as a boss's wife and pastry chef, even when I encountered scammers while crossing the road, I didn't get angry at all, but instead smiled and had them fooled into going to the police station.

  What comforted me the most was that Cheng Qiao quickly regained her composure after a brief moment of loss, and her curved eyes and subtle smile once again captivated me unintentionally.

  But he seemed to be completely unaware of his own charm being so invincible.

  Even if there were more than two people in the kitchen, he would occasionally call out to me in a sweet voice. Without mentioning how Yun Jie and Xi Jie looked at him at that time, every time I heard his clear and soft tone, my heart would skip a beat, and the desserts in my hands would often reach the edge of being ruined.

  At this time, his eyes would become very innocent and pitiful, with an expression on his face that read "none of my business". Faced with such a top-notch tempter, I could only grit my teeth and attribute all the mistakes to my own lack of self-control, then redo the work again without complaint or regret.

  Auntie scolded me for spoiling Cheng Qiao too much, but when she said this, her eyes were full of smiling intention.

  I thought for a moment and said calmly: "Beautiful boys are meant to be spoiled."

  She looked at me with profound meaning and didn't say another word.

  My parents occasionally come to the dessert shop to join in the fun, and when there's a seat available, they'll stay and have something to eat while we're busy. They'll also help deliver desserts upstairs sometimes. But many times, they're just watching Qiao's figure whispering to each other, with an expression that seems to be hiding a joyful secret, and when talking to him, their tone is even more affectionate than when speaking to me, their own daughter.

  I once thought they were going to adopt Cheng Qiao as their son, but this idea was quickly dispelled by a slap from my mother.

  At the same time, there are more and more female customers in the dessert shop who are also deeply infatuated with Qiao's beauty. Although I have already developed immunity to the extremely high-frequency screams, every time I occasionally come out of the kitchen, I will be stimulated by those dazed gazes that stick to Qiao, giving me a considerable number of goosebumps.

  As I've seen many times, I've come to realize that there are some really scary things out there, so I don't dare to casually glance around the hall anymore. I'm afraid my skin will be loosened by the unpredictable chicken skin bumps.

  Fortunately, Cheng Qiao was not affected by these infatuated girls. After hiding her smile, she worked with a meticulous and serious attitude, which made me praise her repeatedly in my heart.

  Although he looks like a stranger, as soon as our eyes meet, he immediately raises the corners of his mouth and reveals a shy smile that seems to have been smeared with honey.

  I held down the excited and jumping little rascal, this kid is really good at controlling himself!

  Xiaoyu locked herself in her small black room at home after seeing me recover normally, while Haicheng and Momo were traveling outside. As a result, Aqian, who rarely went out to play with others, became the most idle one. Moreover, she had just entered her sophomore year. She never took social practice seriously, and her parents often traveled on business trips, so it was within my expectation that she would come to the dessert shop to join in the fun whenever she had nothing to do.

  But I stared at the foreign friend in front of me with a stiff face, why did Tony, the beardless giant, also come so diligently during this period? Didn't A Qian clearly reject him again? Why is he still not giving up?!

  "Hey, Yaoyao. Long time no see, business is getting better and better here!" A handsome and charming man with a chiseled face bowed slightly and greeted me in fluent Beijing dialect.

  It was in the afternoon. Most of the guests on the second floor had just arrived, and suddenly they saw a man with a strong exotic flavor all over his body. Some bold girls had already picked up their phones to take pictures. Tony smiled at them with a very gentlemanly demeanor, and his deep blue eyes were especially charming when they were smiling, which also happened to cover up his own awkwardness.

  If Cheng Qiao's eyes were also a clear and transparent azure color. Paired with his exquisite, painted-like features, and slightly pursed lips with a faint smile...

  Oh no, I'm going to get a nosebleed.

  I nodded heavily with my nose covered: "If an hour is considered a long time, then I, who said byebye to you three hours ago, really haven't seen you for a long time." Y looked at A's expression and suddenly felt a bit flustered: "A, does Yaoyao not like me coming here?"

  "Who told you to ruin so many of her deals?" Ah Qian said with a casual curl of his lips.

  He was completely bewildered.

  Even though I've seen him many times before, I still don't dare to compliment Tony's leadership ability in Chinese. In fact, I also really don't like it when he comes here.

  Many times, girls will make an effort to show a reserved side in front of the opposite sex, especially if they are somewhat pretty.

  I remember one time I was helping a table of customers order, two pretty girls had originally ordered around seven or eight dishes. As I smiled and finished writing the last dessert's name, just as I was about to take the order to the kitchen, tall Tony strode by with an air of importance.

  He enthusiastically greeted me, and then smiled at the two girls. Seeing that the two girls were slightly stunned, one of them, who looked a bit more attractive, suddenly drooped her mouth corners, and I immediately had a bad feeling.

  Just as I was about to rush into the kitchen, I heard that more attractive girl say with a blush: "Actually we have small appetites and can't eat that much, could you help us cancel a few dishes?"

  I suppressed the turmoil in my heart and smiled as I handed them the menu. Then they quickly crossed out all but two of the desserts on it.

  At that moment I really had the urge to kick Tony back to France with one foot.

  But the key is that such examples are not a few, every time Tony comes, our dessert sales performance will drop by 5% on the same day.

  Moreover, as a man who doesn't like sweets, his behavior of coming here and occupying my seat for no reason doesn't bother me. The problem is that after he arrives, the male customers around A-Qian suddenly retreat, even those who usually stay to help her pay the dessert bill have completely disappeared.

  It's clear that the giant's altitude and physique scared them off.

  It's even more obvious that I made a profit for nothing and lost it all in vain.

  So I've been avoiding Tony lately.

  Just as Zheng and Ah Qian were chatting, this area that was just lively suddenly became like a pot of boiling oil with a drop of water splashed into it, churning violently in an instant.

  Among the unrestrained screams of the female guests, Cheng Qiao's tall figure slowly appeared at the staircase entrance, holding a tray with one hand.
