After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 222 - 220: A Mouthful of Sugar

Yang Leqi looked at Wang Sirui’s bewildered expression and sighed. The man’s hopelessly clueless; no one can save him.

"Ahem, Director Fang has something urgent to handle, so I’ll be temporarily filling in as the director today." The acting director cleared his throat, drawing everyone’s attention back, and said.

"He’s probably afraid of getting beaten up!" Wang Sirui said sarcastically.

"Ahem, he really does have urgent matters." The acting director stifled a laugh and tried to speak seriously.

Wang Sirui shot him a resentful look, "If you managed your expressions better, maybe I’d believe you."

Acting director: "..."

He felt he was managing his expressions just fine.

"Ahem, has everyone had breakfast yet? Today, we’ll be eating in the old town; you can eat whatever you fancy. As long as it’s purchasable, each person has a breakfast budget of one hundred yuan." The acting director ignored Wang Sirui’s gaze and said with a straight face.

"One hundred yuan isn’t quite enough. Can we apply for more?" Qin Yun’s languid expression instantly sharpened upon hearing about breakfast, and she seriously asked the acting director with her attractive peach blossom eyes.

"Each person gets one hundred. You can ask others for sponsorship." The acting director’s heart skipped a beat under her gaze, he paused before responding.

"Sister Yun, I can’t finish mine, I’ll give it to you," Yang Leqi immediately declared.

"I also won’t spend all of mine," Wang Sirui added.

"Suddenly being so generous today feels a bit off; it doesn’t align with the usual style of your show! Is there some unspeakable secret, or are you planning to torment us again?" Yang Leqi ignored Wang Sirui and suspiciously turned to question the acting director.

"Aren’t we getting close to the last two shoots? Thought we’d let you eat well, drink well, and play well. If you don’t feel like eating, we can start the tasks right away." The acting director nearly lost his composure and tried to speak with seriousness.

Wang Sirui sent a sharp glance over, rejecting, "That’s not going to work. I’d rather die a full stomach; you need to eat well to have the strength to work."

Hearing this, the acting director sighed in relief and handed each guest an envelope containing the hundred yuan.

Afterward, everyone gradually got into the cars, heading to the old town.

Yesterday, their minds and sight were full of tasks; today coming just to find good food, they had the leisure to stroll around.

As soon as they got off the car, Yang Leqi prepared to drag Qin Yun around to find tasty treats.

The acting director suddenly spoke up, "Gather here at eight-thirty." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

All guests: "??"

Yang Leqi stopped, turned her head, "Isn’t it eat well, drink well, play well? Free activity?"

"Once you’re full and refreshed, it’s time for work." The acting director answered matter-of-factly.

"Knew it, there’s no way this show would be that good!!" Yang Leqi rolled her beautiful eyes and grumbled in annoyance.

"Be content, at least they’re not making us work again, making our own breakfast, answering questions before we can eat breakfast..." Wang Sirui sighed.

Thinking of this, Yang Leqi felt a tad bit comforted.

Yang Leqi responded blankly, "It also means the upcoming tasks surely won’t be simple..."

Wang Sirui, having been retorted, didn’t continue the conversation.

Chen Yao stretched lazily, watching the two bicker, laughed, "Early in the morning, youth is wonderful, so energetic."

Wang Sirui turned to look at the person beside him, "Brother Yao, you’re only twenty-eight, not forty-eight, stop acting like you’re already old."

Having said that, he caught sight of Pei Yan already strolling leisurely, immediately shouted, "Mr. Pei, wait for us!"

Realizing only the three of them were left at the scene, he noticed Yang Leqi had already walked off with Qin Yun while he was talking to Chen Yao, he quickly pulled Chen Yao and Qin Hao to catch up with the main group.

"There’s actually hot and sour noodles here?!! Wonder how they taste." Yang Leqi craned her neck eagerly to look inside.

Qin Yun sniffed at the scent, licked her lips, her eyes twinkled, "Let’s eat first, then say."

Saying this, she walked inside, Yang Leqi followed her in.

A bowl of hot and sour noodles selling for several yuan outside was eighteen yuan here!

This hundred yuan really doesn’t stretch far.

They each ordered a bowl, the noodles were served quickly.

Yang Leqi, wanting to save some room for other foods, asked the owner for a small bowl, portioned out some to eat herself, and gave the rest to Qin Yun.

She truly realized the promise Qin Yun once made: whatever Yang Leqi wanted to eat, Qin Yun would help if she couldn’t finish! With Qin Yun here, nothing goes to waste!

Wang Sirui saw the two outside, "You guys are eating something so spicy in the morning?"

"Hot and sour wakes up the appetite; with an appetite, you can enjoy other delicacies." replied Yang Leqi without looking up.

"Boss, one bowl of hot and sour noodles please!" Wang Sirui promptly sat down and called out.

"I’ll have a bowl too then," Chen Yao didn’t fuss about breakfast, anything was fine, so he joined in ordering a bowl.

Qin Hao could only follow and order a bowl as well.

Pei Yan didn’t join them; he went to a more upscale morning tea cafe, ordered two cages of crab roe buns, two cages of crystal buns, two cages of soup dumplings, and some fried dough sticks. He separated one cage of crab roe buns and one cage of crystal buns into two bags, and split the rest into several portions. This place didn’t have milk, so he got a few cups of soy milk instead.

By the time the group finished eating, Pei Yan’s order had just come out of the oven.

He finished packing and saw the group passing by the entrance.

Pei Yan strode out with the food, walked straight to Qin Yun’s side, and handed over the crab roe buns and crystal buns.

The sudden appearance of a familiar aura next to Qin Yun made her turn her head, seeing a long, strong hand carrying delicious-smelling breakfast in front of her.

Qin Yun’s eyes lit up, she smiled and accepted everything, "So that’s what you went to buy!"

Hearing Qin Yun’s voice, Yang Leqi turned her head, catching sight of Pei Yan beside Qin Yun, glanced between them both, instantly understood, her eyes brightened—ha, her CP (couple pairing) was delivering goodness again.

Oh, correction, delivering dog food.

Previously not knowing, I thought it was sweet like candy, now... how is this candy? It’s clearly dog food.

Whether candy or dog food, it’s deliciously sweet!!

As Yang Leqi hesitated whether to leave as this large third wheel, she saw Pei Yan pause, then hand her a fried dough stick, a soup dumpling, and soy milk, asking, "Want some?"

Yang Leqi’s gaze first fell on the exquisite crystal buns and crab roe buns in Qin Yun’s hand, recalling how last time on the show her dear Sister Yun seemed particularly fond of these two items. Though her dear Sister Yun was never picky, she’d eat anything.

Upon realizing this, looking at the food in front of her now, she suddenly felt a mouthful of sweetness brought right to her.
