“It was just a coincidence.” Zhang Qi smiled and tied the apron on her body.
After paying the bill, Zhuang Yang and He Jin walked out of the shop. As they walked on the street, He Jin glanced at him. “You’re not right today.”
“What’s wrong?” Zhuang Yang looked at the surrounding shops and prepared to walk around.
He Jin said, “Are you someone who casually adds someone else’s contact information? Don’t be ridiculous.”
Zhuang Yang explained, “There’s a reason for this. I accidentally hit her at that time. I left my contact number to take responsibility.” He didn’t think too much about it. He Jin clicked her tongue and didn’t say anything else.
When the two of them walked to the bench and sat down, Zhuang Yang was stunned for a moment before asking, “What do you think it means to have an inexplicable sense of familiarity sometimes?” He kept feeling that the feeling on Zhang Qi was very familiar. Where had he seen her before?
“You’ve fallen in love.” He Jin clicked his tongue again and teased.
“Get lost!” Zhuang Yang muttered, pursing his lips. This wasn’t romantic love, but rather a strange, inexplicable connection, like… family?
Zhuang Yang said slowly, “She gives me the feeling of a younger sister.”
He Jin clapped his hand to his thigh, bursting into laughter. “Hahaha, a little sweetheart, is it?” Zhuang Yang shot him a glare and fell silent.
At 1:30 p.m., almost all the customers in the dessert shop had left. Zhang Qi sat in her seat and rested for a while. Just as she turned on her phone, she received a notification.
Zhuang Yang’s post read: “[Tour’s over, prepping for the next round of excitement. Until next time!]”
Zhang Qi tapped on the post and discovered that it included a set of nine images, all snapshots of people and food taken inside the shop.
In the comments section below.
[Ahhh, Brother is so handsome!]
[I want to go to this shop!]
[Where is this shop? I want to try it.]
[Check in, check in!]
[These desserts look so delicious…]
[I look forward to meeting Yangyang next time. You must live well.]
Soon, the location of their shop was revealed. The fans followed the clues and found Zhang Qi’s number on the review app. They called her to reserve a slot.
Zhang Qi’s phone kept ringing. After an afternoon, Zhang Qi’s mouth was almost dry.
Ye Tang had returned home. When she came back, she saw that Zhang Qi’s notebook was densely filled with customers who had reserved slots. She said in surprise, “Zhang Qi, why are there suddenly so many customers?”
Zhang Qi was so tired that she was about to collapse. She leaned on the table and used the tip of her pen to poke at her notebook. “It’s all because of Zhuang Yang. He posted a few photos on social media. His fans all want to visit our shop.” This was the appeal of an idol. She was afraid.
“It’ll be fine after this period of time. The popularity won’t last long,” Ye Tang said with a smile.
Zhang Qi nodded as if she had accepted her fate. “It’s good too, we can earn more money.”
At the Zhuang family’s house, Zhuang Yang had just arrived. After changing his clothes, he went downstairs. Through the glass wall, he saw Xu Huan accompanying his mother to water the flowers outside. The two of them seemed to be very harmonious. He felt relieved. As long as his mother’s condition did not worsen, that would be the best.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhuang Yang’s phone rang. He picked it up. It was his doctor friend on the other end of the line. “The results of the medicine you asked me to check last time are out. The main function of that medicine is to treat insomnia. It has extremely strong side effects. If you take a large amount of it, it might cause amnesia.”
“What?” Zhuang Yang was shocked. His brain was like melted into glue.
The person on the other end of the line continued, “If you take medicine for a long time, it will damage your brain, making you sleepwalk and unable to differentiate between reality and dreams. In more serious cases, it will cause you to go crazy.”
Outside the window, Xu Qian suddenly sat on the ground and punched the ground hard, kicking away all the flower pots. The servants swarmed over.
Zhuang Yang did not know how the call ended. He stared blankly at the chaos outside the window. A terrifying thought appeared in his mind, and he recalled more clues.
During the two years when his mother had just gone crazy, she often suffered from insomnia. Ever since Dr. Xu Jin took over, his mother had never suffered from insomnia again. It was just that her memory was getting worse and worse, and he suddenly understood.
After an unknown period of time, the servants helped Xu Qian upstairs and helped her change her clothes and tidy her hair and shoes.
By the time Zhuang Yang reached his room, his mother was already asleep. He held his mother’s hand, his body trembling slightly. “Mom, forgive me for only realizing it now.” His eyes were red and filled with hatred. He would not let it go just like that.
Zhuang Xuan parked the car and walked into the living room. He saw Zhuang Yang sitting on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
“Brother, I have something to tell you.” Zhuang Yang raised his head and suppressed his anger.
Zhuang Xuan nodded. “Then let’s go to the study!” Xu Huan was still living at home. He did not like her to know about the discussion between the two of them and what Yu Su had said. He should let his second brother hear it too.
