Chapter 1225 - You’re Dreaming, Avatar

As soon as her words fell, the door of the back kitchen opened, and Xia Yingluo, Jin Ling’er, and several staff members came out.

“You’ve embarrassed yourself, right? Country bumpkins,” Pei Yan said proudly to Xia Yingluo. “Don’t use the twisted doughnuts sold at your village here, it’s so shameful. Any of the chefs here have more skills than you with their fingers!”

Unexpectedly, the people behind Xia Yingluo looked at Pei Yan awkwardly with strange expressions.

Pei Yan was slightly stunned. A bad feeling rose in her heart.

She saw one of the chefs say to Xia Yingluo very kindly, “Ms. Xia, I thank you again for sending us such a precious recipe. This recipe is comparable to the desserts in our shop. Since you refuse to accept money, then in addition to the membership card, I’ll give you another privilege on behalf of the store—no matter which branch you go to in the whole world, you and your companions will enjoy a lifetime free bill.”

“Thank you very much.” Xia Yingluo smiled sweetly.

“Let’s go and find a seat.” She took Jin Ling’er and sat down by the window not far from Gu Jinxiu.

Her parents had said to her that the real upbringing was not about how to talk, how to eat and drink tea, but about what they did and how they behaved. In her opinion, her good friend Jin Ling’er was more well-mannered than Pei Yan and Gu Jinxiu combined.

“It looks great, Yingluo. Is this your recipe?” Jin Ling’er’s eyes glowed.

Jin Ling’er dug a piece with a small spoon. The fluffy cream melted at the entrance and mixed with the rich layering of the cake, it made her squint her eyes in enjoyment. “It’s so delicious… Yingluo, let’s come often and eat it.”

Xia Yingluo said, “Okay.” She also tasted it. It was indeed very good.

After a while, the chef came with two assistants and asked them how it tasted.

The head chef looked at her with respect. “Ms. Xia is really an expert. We felt the same way after we tried it.”

At the other table, Gu Jinxiu saw all this and frowned slightly. Even though she had been to this store many times, she had never enjoyed such a high level of hospitality. Her mood was horrible now after seeing the thorn in her eyes being treated so well. She had no more appetite, and was about to tell Pei Yan to leave when suddenly, she heard Jin Ling’er ask—

Suppressing the urge to get up and leave, she was attracted to the conversation over there and listened intently.
