Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 247 - 248: What Is Love in This World?

During the next two days of the comic convention, Wang Fan found it all dull.

Even with countless entertainment activities and numerous cosplayers in sexy swimsuits, he felt completely uninterested.

Even with the ancient-style girl group performing energetically on stage, even though they were quite skilled in singing and dancing and had great looks, Wang Fan still felt uninterested.

Because Zhuo Qianqian had gone back to school.

Unable to get a plane ticket, she had to settle for taking the high-speed train, and had to leave early Saturday morning to catch it.

Seeing off the little foodie, Wang Fan suddenly felt drained.

He found himself barely meeting the system’s basic requirements.

"Ding, task completed: Successfully set up a stall for 5 consecutive days at the Guangfu Firefly Comic Con. Granted permanent access to the Second Dimension Recipe Collection and 365 Cosplay Skills, and 1000 points. Due to venue changes, unable to obtain restaurant rental rights, instead rewarded with—a Super Trash Can."

"Special Task: Successfully set up a stall for 5 consecutive days at the Guangfu Firefly Comic Con, and sell at least 200 portions of foods featured in ’Anime’, completed. Chef Level +5, 10000 points, permanent access to Advanced Makeup Skill."

Wang Fan was too lazy to care about these rewards, he hadn’t even checked the new tool effects, as he was already counting down with excitement.

PM was the end time of the convention, and it was already 8:59 PM.

3.2.1!

Charge!

...

Kainan University.

Zhuo Qianqian lay over her desk in the dormitory, idly flipping through her phone.

Really, after reloading over and over again, she was just waiting for a message from someone.

But after refreshing all day, she still hadn’t received any message.

"Hmph!"

With a huff of annoyance, Zhuo Qianqian tossed her phone onto the desk and gloomily dug into her food.

But the dishes that tasted so good not long ago now didn’t spark her appetite at all.

There were two other people in the dorm at the moment, and another one was still studying in the study room and hadn’t come back yet.

Li Jing, seeing Zhuo Qianqian not eating well, found it astonishing.

She nudged Zhang Ya with her hand, hinting at Zhuo Qianqian, and whispered, "What’s up with Qianqian? She usually eats with such delight, but today she seems to have no appetite at all?"

Zhang Ya raised her head from her bed, glanced at Zhuo Qianqian, and confidently said, "There’s only one truth, she’s stepped into the grave of love, and this is clearly a lovesickness symptom."

Li Jing exclaimed, "No way? The campus heartthrobs have taken turns confessing to her for a month without getting her. It hasn’t been long, yet she’s not just in love, but lovesick too? Could it be she’s just not feeling well?"

Zhang Ya replied, "Impossible, you can tell just by how frequently she’s checking her phone, she’s definitely waiting for some pighead to text her."

Li Jing really liked Zhuo Qianqian as a roommate, and because she was the youngest and very likable, they all treated her like a younger sister.

On hearing Zhang Ya, Li Jing got worried, "Shouldn’t we help her vet her partner? What if he’s a player and Qianqian gets hurt?"

Only a small circle knew about Zhuo Qianqian and Wang Fan, it wasn’t widely known, and as students of a top university, they actually didn’t have much time or energy to follow internet happenings.

Like their other roommate, who was still studying in the self-study room even though it was past 11 PM.

Zhang Ya thought it made sense; though their dorm mate was a small genius, she might just be a love-struck fool. If she really got tangled with a player, her future could be ruined.

Such examples were far too common during her high school days.

Students who were at the top of their class faltered academically just because they started dating. Having seen too much of this, she didn’t plan on dating her whole life.

"Let’s go, ask her."

Zhang Ya and Li Jing quietly got up from their beds, each grabbed a chair, and sat beside Zhuo Qianqian.

Zhuo Qianqian was busy refreshing her phone again, oblivious to their approach.

Seeing this, Zhang Ya and Li Jing felt a twinge of anxiety.

This is beyond stepping into the grave of love; it seems she’s already buried halfway!

Zhang Ya was cautious not to alarm Zhuo Qianqian and gently asked, "Qianqian, what’s up with you? Are you feeling unwell and having no appetite?"

Hearing the voice, Zhuo Qianqian finally snapped back, "Huh? Why are you guys here?"

Li Jing said, "We saw you were down, so we wanted to check on you. What are you doing constantly on your phone?"

Zhuo Qianqian replied angrily, "Of course, I’m waiting for a message. Usually, at this time, he would text me, but today, nothing."

"Hiss..."

Li Jing and Zhang Ya gasped; now, it felt like she’s already buried up to her neck!

"Waiting for whose message?"

"My boss."

"Hmm?"

On hearing Zhuo Qianqian’s answer, Li Jing and Zhang Ya were taken aback.

"Your boss? Did you get a job?"

"You’re waiting for your boss’s message at this hour, is there something urgent?"

Zhuo Qianqian shook her head, "No, my boss is my boyfriend. Oh, I forgot to tell you, I’m the first in our dorm to be in a relationship!"

Her tone became slightly smug as she spoke.

Boss is boyfriend?

Zhang Ya and Li Jing felt a bit confused; such a feeling never occurred even during calculus lessons.

Both imagined a plump middle-aged man with a shiny bald head, liking to wear sunglasses, a gold chain thicker than a finger around his neck, usually in a black leather outfit...

Damn! Impossible!

The two shook their heads vigorously to dispel the charming image. How could someone like Qianqian be taken by such a person?!

Zhang Ya nervously asked, "First, congratulations on dating, but I was wondering, how old is your boss-boyfriend?"

"Just turned 22."

Zhuo Qianqian answered honestly.

"Phew... that’s a relief, at least he’s the same age."

Zhang Ya and Li Jing exchanged glances once again, unavoidably imagining a pretentious figure who loved driving sports cars with different women clinging onto him...

Ah, that... it’s exactly what they feared the most!

"Qianqian, how long have you known each other?"

Zhang Ya’s question took Zhuo Qianqian back to her memories.

It was at the beginning of the year, on the snowy Taishan Peak, a tall figure basked in the sunlight, seemingly blending with the light. His way with the BBQ skewers was so skilled and natural, the aroma irresistible, and that taste unbeatable...

As she thought about it, Zhuo Qianqian felt her mouth watering.

"Slurp..."

The lamb skewers were so delicious, gosh they’re mouth-watering, next time I must have him roast 100 skewers for me first, no, 200 skewers!

Unbelievable, beyond help.

Seeing Zhuo Qianqian completely immersed in her own world, Zhang Ya and Li Jing felt a blackout in front of them.

This wasn’t just burying up to the neck, it seemed she’s already boxed!

Which bastard filled their cabbage with Enchanting Soup?

The effect was nearly as strong as Meng Po Soup!
