Yun Qingyan leaned against the tree branch and slowly looked down.
Fatty Yu held the box of snacks in one hand and kept trying to climb up the old tree. Since he was limited by the body he was born with, after trying for a long time, he didn't make it even an inch up the tree. His plump little face was filled with dejection.
"Fatty Yu has really gone mad."
"Exactly! Those are snacks from Yude Eatery! Instead of offering them to Senior Wanyue and Senior Qingxue, he's actually gone running after that useless Yun Qingyan to give them to her instead."
Sarcastic and insulting voices could be heard all around.
Lin Wanyue's expression changed a little, not because she wanted to eat those snacks, but because Fatty Yu's actions were clearly a slap in her face.
Baili Qingxue's expression remained cold and aloof. His expression didn't seem to change at all and he didn't seem to have heard any of the discussion happening around him.
The poor chubby boy kept jumping at the bottom of the tree and his forehead was beginning to perspire. It seemed like he wasn't going to give up until Yun Qingyan took the snacks.
"Give them to me." Yun Qingyan lazily stretched her hand out.
Fatty Yu immediately brightened up and passed the box of snacks to Yun Qingyan.
As he passed them to her, he kept saying, "They're really yummy." He added on by nodding his head seriously continuously as if he was trying to testify that those snacks were extremely delicious. "They're really, really yummy."
Yun Qingyan ignored the chubby boy and opened the box. A light fragrance immediately hit her nose and made her start to feel hungry.
That fragrance wasn't too sweet nor too oily. It was just right.
The exquisitely made snacks were neatly put together inside an equally exquisite black box. They were small and pretty and looked extremely attractive.
Yun Qingyan gently picked one up and ate it.
Sweetness filled her mouth and spread into her heart and lungs, making her feel very comfortable.
A glint flashed in Yun Qingyan's black eyes. This snack included medicine that was nourishing to the body. Eating this made one feel comfortable all over, and if you ate it consistently over a long period, it was able to increase your lifespan.
The owner of Yude Eatery was a smart person.
"How is it? How is it? It's really yummy, right?" The chubby boy blinked his tiny eyes several times and asked her anxiously as he kept swallowing saliva.
Yun Qingyan burst out laughing. If she got a chance to make some snacks, she could make something that was sweeter and more fragrant than this, and it would be able to fully keep the medicinal value of the herbs used.
But of course, she couldn't say any of this to him.
Yun Qingyan nodded as she picked up another piece. "It's not bad."
A gleam flashed in Baili Qingxue's icy eyes as he stood not too far away from them. Did she like Yude Eatery's snacks?
He immediately looked down and frowned very slightly. So what if she liked to eat Yude Eatery's snacks? What had that got to do with him? Why should he take note of this?
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, I knew you'd like them." The chubby boy nodded his head profusely and opened his mouth wide as he stared straight at Yun Qingyan's hand that was holding the snacks.
Yun Qingyan raised a finely trimmed eyebrow. "Why are you staring at me?"
The chubby boy swallowed his saliva hard and his tiny eyes looked like they were about to shoot stars out. "I'm… I'm looking at… I'm looking at you eat." Then he swallowed another large mouthful of saliva.
This fellow was clearly starving.
Yun Qingyan burst out laughing. She flicked her fingers and the snack in her hand immediately landed in the chubby boy's mouth.
Fatty Yu immediately became alert again as he carefully chewed a few times. His eyes curved happily and his entire face was radiating with bliss.
Yun Qingyan picked up another piece and looked at the chubby boy with her clear black eyes. "Do you want anymore?"
"No, no I don't, please eat! Please eat them!" Fatty Yu shook his head with determination this time. The specialty snacks from Yude Eatery were really delicious, but they were hard to come by. They weren't just expensive, but also came in limited numbers every day. That tiny little box only carried five pieces.
