Abnormal Gourmet Chronicle-Chapter 1085 - 528: Do Funeral Professionals Really Have Such a Wide Array of Side Jobs? (Part 3)

"Planner Zhou, you should head back too. It's past 11 PM. It's quite late. I remember you said you live near the funeral home, and it takes two hours to get back." Qin Huai expressed some concern.

Zhou Hu smiled and said, "I just happened to have a client needing me around here, otherwise I wouldn't come over specifically."

Qin Huai: ?

Although he didn't understand why a client would need him past 11 PM, considering that Zhou Hu is in the funeral business, working at this hour seemed normal. Qin Huai nodded in understanding and walked towards the district.

He hadn't taken a few steps before brushing shoulders with Xu Tuqiang.

Xu Tuqiang was in such a hurry that he didn't immediately recognize Qin Huai, only realizing a few steps later and turning around in surprise, "Master Qin!"

Xu Tuqiang glanced at the takeout box in Qin Huai's hand, "It's so late and you're still ordering takeout, it must be tough."

"Even though our district doesn't allow takeouts in, the property management always delivers them to the door. It's outrageous that they have you come out at this hour to get it yourself!" Xu Tuqiang was angry.

"No, no, this is something I packed outside." Qin Huai quickly explained, "Mr. Xu, you're out so late too."

"Meeting a friend. Master Qin, you should rest early. Are you selling sticky rice cakes tomorrow morning?"

"I am." Qin Huai nodded. He had specially made them at home this morning before heading out.

Xu Tuqiang cheerfully walked away.

Qin Huai was about to continue towards Luo Jun's house when he noticed Zhao Cheng'an had stopped and was pensively looking at Xu Tuqiang's back, even taking a few steps toward the entrance.

"What's wrong?" Qin Huai asked.

"Something's off." Zhao Cheng'an said, "Zhou Hu meeting a client at Yunzhong District's entrance past 11 PM, and it just so happens Mr. Xu is rushing out this late. Could it be that Mr. Xu is Zhou Hu's client?"

"Could it be that Mr. Xu appears healthy, but is secretly planning his own funeral?"

Qin Huai: ...

Very imaginative, but it's best not to let your imagination run that wild.

"Mr. Xu ate half a pound of sticky rice cake yesterday morning." Qin Huai said, "With an appetite like that, you say he's not long for this world?"

"It could also be a final burst of vitality, Qin Huai you don't get it, I've seen many, I have experience."

Qin Huai stopped talking and pulled Zhao Cheng'an to walk outside, indicating that seeing is believing, taking a few steps to look would reveal the truth.

Then they saw Xu Tuqiang at the district entrance. Since there was no one there at this hour, Xu Tuqiang didn't hold back in his excitement, speaking to Zhou Hu:

"Master Zhou, the Lucky Charm you gave me last time was incredibly effective! I got lucky just a couple of days ago from the charm you gave me at the beginning of the year!"

"I was originally planning to find some time in the afternoon to visit you at the funeral home, but it's such a coincidence that you're here today." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"I mainly wanted you to stop by and check the feng shui of my home, see if there's room for improvement, ideally to change the feng shui so Master Qin makes sticky rice cakes every day."

"It would be even better if you could change it so that I could eat inside the kitchen."

Zhou Hu, transforming from a top-notch planner, suddenly exuded a slight aura of mysticism, and slowly said, "No problem, no problem, I can understand the sticky rice cake part, but what do you mean by eating in the kitchen?"

"Master Zhou, you remember I told you last time about Yunzhong Restaurant in our district, the one nearby. Yunzhong Restaurant…"

Qin Huai and Zhao Cheng'an eavesdropping openly: ...

The two were dumbfounded.

"Zhou Hu… also works as a Feng Shui Master?"

"Does the funeral business have such a wide range of side jobs?"
