42: Chapter 41: All are Sins
42 -41: All are Sins
Jin Yu recognized Xu Niannian at a glance; Xu Niannian’s appearance was too distinctive to miss.
Wearing blue coarse cloth clothes, tall and slender, she even wrapped up her face and head.
Jin Yu’s narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly; this woman, how could he encounter her everywhere?
Really just a coincidence?
Jin Yu did not quite believe in so many coincidences.
Could she be stalking him?
With suspicions in his mind, Jin Yu walked straight towards Xu Niannian.
Xu Niannian, keeping her head down, heard the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer, wishing she could bury her head into her chest.
This demon, a lunatic.
She had been intentionally avoiding him.
Didn’t he notice she was unwilling to see him?
Yet he still approached her.
Li Qingshui at the counter blushed at the sight of the tall and handsome man walking towards her.
“Do you need anything?” Li Qingshui had a partner, but that didn’t stop her heart from fluttering at the sight of Jin Yu’s envy-inducing, handsome face.
Jin Yu glanced indifferently at Li Qingshui and knocked on the counter in front of Xu Niannian.
The knocking sound came, and Xu Niannian knew it was that demon.
Reluctantly, she raised her head and glared at him unwillingly.
Her beautiful almond eyes were large and bright, watery, she glared at Jin Yu cutely, with an allure that was full of seductive charm.
Jin Yu’s eyebrows twisted tightly.
Was this woman trying to seduce him?
“Tell me, what’s the purpose of your stalking?” Jin Yu asked impatiently.
He liked quick battles and had no patience for beating around the bush.
Xu Niannian had not even had time to lament this fatal entanglement when she heard Jin Yu’s words, and was instantly stunned, “What did you say?”
Li Qingshui watched with curiosity as this peculiar woman apparently knew the handsome man in front of her.
Jin Yu ignored the gazes of others and directly asked Xu Niannian, “Don’t make me repeat for the third time.
Tell me, why are you stalking me?
For money?
Or for something else?”
Xu Niannian’s mouth twitched involuntarily, “You’re too full of yourself, who is stalking you?
Clearly, I came here first.
If anyone is stalking, it’s you stalking me.
How did it become me stalking you?”
Xu Niannian found it amusing; it seemed this man was not only a beast and a pervert but also a narcissistic lunatic.
Jin Yu’s brow furrowed, it did seem to be the case.
He had come here on a whim; it was impossible that she got wind of his movements in advance.
“Lunatic,” Xu Niannian couldn’t help but curse again.
Jin Yu’s forehead creased into a knot, could it really just be a coincidence?
“What are you doing here?” Jin Yu asked with a click of his tongue.
“None of your business.
Are we acquainted?”
Xu Niannian retorted rudely.
His question did remind Xu Niannian of her purpose for being there.
She glared at Jin Yu, annoyed again; it was this lunatic’s fault she had almost forgotten something important.
Hurriedly, she turned back to the woman at the counter and enthusiastically said, “Miss, the pastry I made is really tasty, you won’t believe it until you try.”
As she spoke, Xu Niannian handed two Liuyue Su pastries to the woman.
Li Qingshui had faintly smelled a delicate fragrance earlier, wondering where it had come from, and here it was brought by the peculiar woman in front of her.
As soon as Xu Niannian took them out, the fragrance became even more pronounced.
Moreover, this batch of Liuyue Su, to meet the standard of the space requirement, Xu Niannian not only made the flavor better, but also made the shape and the patterns on them very beautiful.
At the sight of them, Li Qingyue’s eyes immediately lit up, and even Jin Yu beside her was taken aback for a moment.
Although the shape was different, he remembered that taste.
Could it be that the Liuyue Su his mother bought before was made by this woman?
He stood to the side, unobtrusively watching.
Even though the dry goods store was opened by Li Qingshui’s parents, she was essentially the one managing it.
Without even tasting, just by looking at the exquisite appearance and the fragrant smell, one could tell this was no ordinary item.
Xu Niannian was incredibly astute.
As soon as she saw the look in Li Qingshui’s eyes, she immediately knew Li Qingshui was interested and quickly stuffed the pastry into her hands.
“Try it and see, I guarantee that if you find it unappetizing, I won’t take a penny from you.”
Of course, not taking any money was out of the question; Xu Niannian was just spouting a habitual line.

But her words drew a snort of laughter from Jin Yu, thankfully he didn’t laugh out loud.
Li Qingshui had always run the dry goods store and sold pastries.
Seeing a business opportunity, she naturally wanted to seize it and didn’t stand on ceremony with Xu Niannian, taking a bite right away.
The crispy shell crumbled to reveal a fragrant, tender, and creamy filling.
As soon as she bit into it, a yellow custard-like substance oozed out, filling her entire mouth.
How fragrant it was, and so delicious that Li Qingshui almost swallowed her own tongue.
Xu Niannian watched with satisfaction as Li Qingshui savored it.
It seemed the deal was sealed.
Jin Yu glanced at Li Qingshui’s expression of enjoyment with astonishment.
Was it really that delicious?
“I’ll have one,” said Jin Yu.
Xu Niannian bared her teeth at him, but he didn’t see it.
“Why should I give it to you?”
Jin Yu clicked his tongue and pulled out five dollars from his pocket, slamming it onto the counter with authority, “Is this enough?”
Five dollars?
Xu Niannian’s eyes narrowed as she quickly pocketed the money, “That’s enough.”
While speaking, she handed him another pastry and then ignored him.
Pinching the golden pastry between two fingers, Jin Yu raised an eyebrow; from up close, he saw that this pastry was much more exquisite than the one he had eaten before.
The intricate pattern on top was not just beautiful but painstakingly hand-carved, not pressed from a mold.
How skilled must one be to achieve this?
He glanced subconsciously at the oddly dressed woman in front of him.
Was this truly made by her?
At this moment, Xu Niannian was conversing with Li Qingshui.
After trying the Liuyue Su that Xu Niannian offered, Li Qingshui decided on the spot.
She must discuss a long-term cooperative arrangement with Xu Niannian, no matter what.
Xu Niannian asked Li Qingshui with deliberate amusement, “How is it, how’s the taste, okay?”
It was more than okay; it was incredibly delicious, pastry like she’d never tasted before.
Businesspeople often like to keep things to themselves and not show everything upfront, but Li Qingshui didn’t bother with these roundabout ways.
She cut to the chase, “Big sister, your pastries are truly delicious, and they’re the best I’ve ever tasted, but let me be upfront.
Although they’re tasty, you also know about everyone’s purchasing power.
Don’t ask for too high a price, or else if I can’t sell them, I’ll just end up with stock that can’t be stored for long.”
Upon hearing Li Qingshui’s words, Xu Niannian took another look at her, not expecting to meet such a well-matched business partner.
She had thought Li Qingshui would downplay the taste to push for a lower price.
She didn’t like to beat around the bush.
Facing a straightforward partner, she also got to the point.
“Alright, big sister.
Since that’s what you’ve said, I won’t bother with the nonsense.
I’ve sold these pastries at the morning market before, for three dimes each.
They sold out in less than an hour, so the price will stay the same.
I’ll give them to you for three dimes each too.”
Hearing this, Li Qingshui immediately frowned, “If you sell them for three dimes retail at the morning market, and give them to me for the same price, how would I make a profit?”
