After the woman drank some water and recovered a bit, Yuan Tiantian made her a bowl of light lean - meat congee. The woman looked so weak that Tiantian was afraid normal food might upset her stomach. After gobbling it up, the woman finally looked a bit better. Yuan Tiantian stared at her curiously.
The woman felt embarrassed under the curious gazes of the four good - looking young people.
"Sorry, I was rude," she said.
As the woman explained, Yuan Tiantian looked at her with sympathy. Her name was Shen Qingyun. She was on a self - driving tour alone. When she reached a remote area, she was robbed. It was hard to say if she was lucky or unlucky. Although all her belongings were taken, the robbers didn't hurt her physically. They just left her with no way to ask for help.
Hungry, Shen Qingyun walked all the way until she saw Sweetie's Food Store. Attracted by the dark - themed signboard, she managed to make her way here.
Shen Qingyun had no money or identification, but Yuan Tiantian sensed that she meant no harm. She called Bai Jingyang and asked him to arrange a place for Shen Qingyun to stay in the village behind. Tiantian would pay for it. Shen Qingyun was extremely grateful.
"Little boss, thank you so much. Can I use your phone?"
Yuan Tiantian handed over her phone. Shen Qingyun walked aside and dialed a number. The other person answered quickly. Shen Qingyun talked to them for a while. Yuan Tiantian couldn't hear clearly from afar, but she could tell that Shen Qingyun was quite emotional. After a few minutes, she calmed down, said a few more words, and then hung up and came back.
"Thank you, little boss. My husband will come tomorrow and surely offer a big thank - you."
Yuan Tiantian smiled politely. Shen Qingyun followed Bai Jingyang to the village, and Yuan Tiantian and the others closed the store and went to rest.
Early the next morning, Yuan Lele dragged her suitcase to Sweetie's Food Store again. As soon as she entered, she pulled Yuan Tiantian to a corner.
"Tiantian, does the lemonade in your store have some special effects?!"
Yuan Tiantian noticed that Yuan Lele came in without makeup this morning, looking in good condition. She knew it was the spiked lemonade from yesterday that had worked. Yuan Lele must have noticed this too when she woke up today. In fact, she was quite shocked.
The haggard look from a few days ago was completely gone in the mirror this morning. Her skin was even at least one degree better than normal. She let out a soft gasp in surprise. After thinking about many things, she finally guessed it was the big glass of lemonade.
That's why she couldn't wait to confirm as soon as she came this morning.
After getting a positive answer from Yuan Tiantian, Yuan Lele was too excited to express her feelings. She didn't expect her sister to have such a wonderful thing.
"Tiantian, I need your help now!"
Yuan Lele then told Tiantian about a problem she encountered during a video conference yesterday afternoon. She didn't tell Tiantian at that time because she thought her sister couldn't solve it, so she didn't want to trouble her. She had already told her about the divorce, so she didn't want to say more.
But she didn't expect her sister's store to have something so amazing, and it was exactly what she needed now!
"Tiantian, your lemons can really improve skin problems like dullness and dark spots, right?"
Yuan Lele asked again. After getting a positive answer, she directly asked if she could buy some of these things. Yuan Tiantian laughed instantly.
"Sis, what are you talking about? There's no need to buy. I was going to give you some lemons and Shuyang anyway."
However, Yuan Lele refused and directly explained, "There's an artist in our company who has a new - drama audition for a beautiful - girl role. The artist is qualified, but for some reason, she got spots on her face the morning before yesterday. The audition is tomorrow, and we've tried many ways but couldn't solve it."
"Can't she cover them with makeup?"
Yuan Lele shook her head. "It's not that makeup can't cover them. This audition requires the actors to be completely makeup - free."
So that's the problem. It would be very difficult for the artist to get the role with a face full of spots. That's why Yuan Lele was so excited when she found out the lemons in Sweetie's Food Store had such amazing effects. With these lemons, the artist's audition problem could be solved.
"So, I'd like to buy some lemons from your store in the name of our company."
Yuan Lele stated her purpose. Yuan Tiantian had no objection. In the end, they agreed that Yuan Tiantian would provide 20 lemons and 20 Shuyang fruits. Since Shuyang could regulate the stomach, Yuan Lele didn't take advantage of her sister. She bought them at a price of 150 each.
With the lemons and Shuyang in hand, Yuan Lele felt relieved and ate more for breakfast. This was the first good news in a while that could solve a problem. Maybe someone would ask how she was so sure the lemonade would work without trying. If Yuan Lele heard this question, she would surely roll her eyes.
She herself had some spots on her face, not many but still noticeable. But they were all gone this morning. Wasn't that enough proof?
Yuan Lele had a flight at 10 a.m. Besides the lemons and Shuyang, Yuan Tiantian also prepared a flower crab for her. Just as she was about to leave, Shen Qingyun walked into Sweetie's Food Store with a man in a suit.
"Little boss, I'm here!"
Bai Ying, Sheng Jing, and Xiaojiu had gone to the mountain. Aunt Qianhua came in the morning and said there was something on the mountain that she needed to tell them. Since Yuan Lele was there, she didn't go. She asked the two of them to go and check. Xiaojiu was curious, so Sheng Jing picked him up and took him along.
So there was no one in the hall of Sweetie's Food Store. The Yuan sisters were tidying up in the kitchen. Hearing the voices, Yuan Tiantian walked out.
"Little boss, I brought my husband to thank you! Thank you so much yesterday!"
Yuan Tiantian looked at Shen Qingyun's husband, a very imposing man. Just as she was about to say it was okay and there was no need to thank, she heard Yuan Lele's surprised voice from behind.
"General Manager Yu?!"
The man called General Manager Yu frowned when he saw Yuan Lele, showing dissatisfaction on his face.
"General Manager Yuan, I've told you not to look for me anymore. I've made my decision about that matter, and it won't change."
Huh?
Yuan Tiantian and Shen Qingyun were both full of confusion, looking back and forth between the two of them.
Do the sister/husband know each other?!
