Abnormal Gourmet Chronicle-Chapter 1156 - 556: Reciprocity (Part 2)

An Youyou swallowed the sugar cake, and instinctively took another bite.

The little person inside her heart stopped jumping.

All miscellaneous thoughts disappeared.

An Youyou's gaze became dazed, her whole body froze, like a statue.

Qin Huai let out a long breath of relief.

It scared him to death, he watched An Youyou eat for a long time but she did not start recalling, he even thought the sugar cake's level was too high, causing the awakening to fail. Qin Huai was considering whether to watch the video tutorial carefully one more time and imitate properly, lest he accidentally make a Level C sugar cake.

Sometimes, when basic skills improve, it's really hard to make bad snacks.

Qin Huai quietly waited, and during the wait, he picked up a piece of sugar cake to taste whether this Level C sugar cake was good.

Average.

Actually, this sugar cake could be sold at Yunzhong Restaurant, provided that everyone is told it was made by Qin Congwen, while selling for three cents each.

Qin Huai pondered while eating, whether he could trigger the buff if he made the sugar cake following the normal procedure, and if not, whether Zhang Yi's shortcut method was actually difficult to make delicious.

Qin Huai thought the sugar cake's buff wasn't bad, quite like opening a blind box, he wanted to make a batch for friends and family to taste.

See what drives everyone to strive for success.

Just as Qin Huai's thoughts were getting more and more off track, An Youyou moved.

Her expression was quite unique.

When other spirits wake up, they are either surprised or dismayed. In Qu Jing's case, such strong emotions might even make him cry directly, but An Youyou was delighted.

Not a trace of surprise, only pure delight at her successful crossing of tribulation.

"I succeeded in crossing tribulation?" An Youyou exclaimed, "How did I succeed? I haven't made a fortune! I haven't claimed a mountain as king! I haven't found my 13 little followers from before!"

It was apparent that An Youyou had a clear understanding of why she failed her previous crossing. The Three-legged Golden Toad seemed messy, but its business ability was not lacking.

An Youyou glanced at the sugar cake in her hand: "Can eating this help to succeed in crossing? I haven't heard of this before?"

Qin Huai: ...

You spirits really have a striking change after waking up, a kind of schizophrenic beauty.

Qin Huai weakly spoke: "Is it possible that your crossing success is because of me."

When Qin Huai was ready to follow the normal procedure, first introducing to An Youyou that he is the system male protagonist, then pulling An Youyou into the [Loving Family] group chat, and then introducing to her the true situation of the spirits in the group chat one by one, An Youyou said a sentence that stumped Qin Huai.

"Boss, turns out you're also a spirit, what a coincidence, no wonder you cultivated me like this, thank you."

Qin Huai: ?

After saying that, An Youyou looked at Qin Huai for two seconds, and paused: "No, Boss, you're not a spirit."

"How did you know I was going to cross tribulation?"

Qin Huai let out a long breath, thinking finally he could proceed normally, not giving An Youyou another chance to speak, he immediately started to go through the process.

The whole process left An Youyou stunned.

For An Youyou, blending into the [Loving Family] was easy, she even went to Luo Jun's house to host a tea party, and was good friends, chatting often on WeChat with Qu Jing.

After hearing Qin Huai complete the whole explanation, An Youyou received the information for a moment, then asked: "So according to the normal process, gifts should be given now, right?"

Qin Huai was moved, didn't expect An Youyou in such poverty still remembered to give a gift, she really was his good employee!

"The current house I live in is Sister Hong's, can you persuade Sister Hong to give me that house? I really like it." An Youyou's face was full of the Three-legged Golden Toad's penchant for getting something for nothing.

Qin Huai: ...

"The gift is something you give me, not I give you."

"Oh, I see." An Youyou was somewhat disappointed, "But I don't have anything to give you, Boss. My monthly salary is paid by you, and each month's salary has been used up." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

An Youyou frowned and thought for several minutes, suddenly remembering something, she said excitedly: "Boss, I remember before I died, Little Seven, Little Ninth, and Thirteen were still alive. If they are still alive now, their retirement funds should have accumulated quite a lot, why don't I contact them to get their retirement fund for you?"

Qin Huai: ...Are you talking human language?

If they were still alive now, they'd probably be 70 or 80-year-old men, Three-legged Golden Toad, you wouldn't even spare the retirement fund of old men?!

Qin Huai suddenly realized that the most off-beat spirit was not the Mayfly, but the previously very steady, normal, hardworking good employee in front of him.

Qin Huai took a deep breath, forcing out a smile: "I think they also have it hard, why don't we find a place to sit, and you talk to me about the parts I missed and what happened after you went to Jinling."

"Your memory is very important to me."

"I remember in your memory, there was another spirit that also failed crossing, named Chen Shun."

"Yes." An Youyou nodded, "He was doing much better than I was."

Qin Huai and An Youyou went directly to the second floor, found a window-side seat and sat down, An Youyou didn't understand why her memory was so important to Qin Huai, she could only say whatever came to mind.

Although An Youyou's ambitions were absurd, as a spirit entering the world to cross the tribulation, the basic training was done very well, she was clear that the moment she agreed to go to Jinling to be a bookkeeper, she failed in crossing.
