Chapter 134 - 134 Love and Tenderness

134 Love and Tenderness

Su Binglan graciously admitted, “Yes, we have an excellent relationship.” She revealed a shy expression when she said that.

Everyone noticed her expression and believed her, so they stopped prying.

However, Su Binglan’s heart sank when she looked at her husband, busy at the cashier counter. She thought Luo Jin’an did not fit in with the atmosphere.

On second thought, it was not that he did not fit in. Instead, Su Binglan suspected that her husband’s temperament was unsuitable for the dessert shop.

She felt guilty and reluctant to let her husband do such lowly tasks. Su Binglan thought her husband would be in a better mood if he did something more elegant. Still, she wondered what Luo Jin’an should do instead.

She wanted him to attend the academy, but Luo Jin’an refused.

‘Perhaps I could find a reason and persuade him to go.’

…

Those who visited the shop tasted the desserts and said they were delicious, while some who only wanted to test the free samples could not help but buy one or two to bring them home. Therefore, the dessert shop did well on its first day.

“Miss, your desserts are delicious! They taste unique compared to the ones we had before. Did you make these yourself?”

Su Binglan returned to her senses when she heard the customer’s question. She explained smilingly, “Yes, I made them myself. I made these desserts carefully so you can eat them without worry.”

The customer said, “You’re very talented, Miss. Your husband is lucky to have you!”

Su Binglan calmly replied, “I’m fortunate to have met my husband too.”

When she said that, Luo Jin’an happened to raise his head to look over. Su Binglan simply smiled at him.

It was because her business was going well, and she was in a good mood when she thought of the money she had earned for her family.

Luo Jin’an also smiled when he thought of what his wife said in his defense and when he saw her smile. Although his smile was faint, it was heartwarming. His eyes seemed full of mesmerizing charm whenever he smiled as his whole body radiated affection and gentleness.

Su Binglan was shocked for a moment and wondered if she was hallucinating. ‘He’s usually so emotionless, yet he’s smiling? Is he smiling at me?’

However, when she wanted to confirm her thoughts, Luo Jin’an had already looked away and continued working the cash register.

…

The dessert shop was adjacent to the tofu shop, and the backdoor led to the backyard.

Shen Qiuhua went through the backyard to check on the tofu shop. When she returned, she excitedly said to her daughter, “Binglan, the tofu shop is also doing well. Fortunately, we prepared enough tofu. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have enough to sell.

“Also, your uncle’s salted duck eggs and preserved eggs are sold out. It hasn’t even been an entire morning yet.” Shen Qiuhua’s face was brimming with a brilliant smile as she spoke.

The family business was booming, and she was delighted.

Su Binglan said, “It means everyone thinks the eggs are delicious. We should tell Uncle Fengchen to make more next time.”

Shen Qiuhua responded, “But your uncle doesn’t raise many ducks, so he might not have enough eggs.”

After some thought, an idea appeared in Su Binglan’s mind. “It’s okay. Uncle Fengchen can buy eggs from the villagers and markets. Then he can marinate them and sell them. That way, everyone can make some money.”

Shen Qiuhua’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “That’s an excellent idea because it can help the villagers too!”

As the mother and daughter spoke, they heard unusual movements on the street outside.

Suddenly, Lin Zheng rushed in and said anxiously, “Boss, someone fainted at the tofu shop entrance! He seems to be out of breath. What should we do?”

Previously, Su Binglan had sent Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan to the tofu shop and told them to help. When Lin Zheng saw what had happened, he immediately thought to look for his boss because he knew she could do anything.
