Chapter 419

"What, Xiao Qin, you didn't practice any dim sum at Zhi Wei Ju these past few days, and now you are making egg tarts?"

"Is it delicious?"

"Not bad. Tan Weian ate 3 in a row, drank a bowl of tea, came back, was chased away, and then came back and ate 4 more. I got it, I'll book the ticket now. How did you know I love egg tarts the most?"

"What I love to eat most is not buns, steamed buns, shumai... it's all the same, I love egg tarts too. It just so happens that I've had enough of eating in Gusu during this time. By the way, what you said last time was not wrong at all. Zheng Da indeed cannot make dim sum at Huang Ji for more than three consecutive days. After you left, Zheng Da made dim sum for two days, then rested, becoming 'work one day, rest one day.' He came today, and I guess he won't come tomorrow."

"How is Zheng Da's mood?"

"I can't taste that. The Four Happiness Flower Rolls he made are quite delicious, basically exactly the same as the one you made. Many customers didn't even taste it and didn't know you had left."

"Oh, also, when I was chatting with Qu Jing these past few days, Qu Jing said Luo Jun is a bit bored. I guess he finished watching the TV series and goes to the hospital to find trouble every day, scaring the other patients who are making medical trouble so much that they don't dare to make medical trouble anymore."

"He also mentioned An Youyou a couple of times, but I'm not very familiar with that girl, and I don't remember exactly what he said. See when you have time, let's have a video call and hold a meeting. I haven't seen Luo Jun for a long time and I miss him. I call him on video, but he never answers, and he doesn't reply to messages either."

"He doesn't have many days left to live anyway; every time we meet is one less. Sometimes I want to buy a plane ticket to go back and see Old Luo. But I feel he probably doesn't want to see me. Sigh, Xiao Qin, you know, I really care about him. It's not easy for those fierce beasts to undergo tribulation."

The above remarks all came from the content of the call between Shi Dadan and Qin Huai. The final call ended with Shi Dadan's sigh and swallowing sound.

Yes, Shi Dadan was eating while on the phone.

The happiness of Dang Kang is just so simple and unadorned.

That evening, Shi Dadan carried three suitcases and launched a surprise attack on Hangcheng, arriving at the house where Qin Huai lived at 8:37 PM.

To welcome Shi Dadan's arrival, Qin Huai specially packed 4 of Master Zhou's egg tarts and 4 of his own egg tarts.

Considering Shi Dadan's appetite, and in a situation where he had only ordered takeout on the first day and didn't know what good restaurants or takeout were nearby, Qin Huai opened the takeout software and placed orders randomly, using 8 takeouts to welcome Shi Dadan.

8 takeouts covering a table can be said to be the highest courtesy.

Shi Dadan very honestly chose to eat the cold egg tarts first after putting down his suitcases, instead of eating the hot takeout.

I saw Shi Dadan eat one of Master Zhou's egg tarts, then eat one of Qin Huai's egg tarts. After a not-so-difficult choice, Shi Dadan pointed to Qin Huai's egg tart and said: "Xiao Qin, I think your egg tarts are also very delicious!"

Qin Huai felt tears were about to fall. Although even a supportive person like Shi Dadan couldn't say the insincere words that his egg tarts were more delicious than Master Zhou's, but with these two egg tarts placed together, Shi Dadan could say this sentence...

Qin Luo and Ouyang couldn't say this sentence even with their eyes closed; the two of them would only eat egg tarts wildly with their eyes closed.

"These egg tarts were all baked around 5 PM. They have been left for so long that they have cooled down and are not as delicious as when they were freshly baked. I am a master here for an exchange at Zhi Wei Ju, and it's not easy for me to openly cook special meals for you, Old Shi."

"How about this, tomorrow around 3 PM, you go to the takeout window of Zhi Wei Ju early to line up. During this time, it has spread among the customers of Zhi Wei Ju that Master Zhou will release a small batch of egg tarts he baked himself every afternoon. There are many customers lining up to buy egg tarts and open blind boxes in the afternoon, so you just line up normally."

"I'll say hello to the people at the window and save a few for you. When it's your turn, they will move Master Zhou's egg tarts to you."

"Good, good, good." Shi Dadan nodded wildly while eating egg tarts in big mouthfuls, his face filled with the joy of happiness.

"By the way, Xiao Qin, I forgot to ask when we were on the phone this afternoon. Didn't you come to Zhi Wei Ju to learn cloud patterns? How did it turn into learning egg tarts? Are you still learning cloud patterns?"

"Is it because my side quest is too difficult, and you can't make the Four Happiness Rolls? Sigh, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect that I would come up with such a difficult dim sum. Actually, I thought of many dim sums at the time, but your game system just chose the Four Happiness Rolls."

"Can it be changed now? If I say the dim sum I want to eat is not the Four Happiness Rolls at all, and the dim sum I want to eat is egg tarts, is it useful?"

Qin Huai didn't expect that the focus of Shi Dadan's attention was actually this. To tell the truth, as the true owner of the game system, a male protagonist of a system novel who owes a debt of uncompleted tasks, he himself didn't care much about these tasks.

It was mainly because the current tasks were not as urgent as before.

When Qin Huai was doing Qu Jing's side quest, it was really urgent. At that time, Qu Jing's mental state was not good, and Luo Jun and Chen Huihong often mentioned it in front of Qin Huai, feeling that in a few years, the grass on Qu Jing's grave would be taller than Qin Huai.

That was probably the time when Qin Huai most urgently wanted to complete the task. He was afraid that if the side quest was completed late, Qu Jing wouldn't be able to hold on until the day she woke up and would leave first.

Now Qin Huai takes these tasks very lightly because the state of these monsters is quite good. Whether it is Gong Liang, Wang Gensheng, or An Youyou, it is not their last life, and their status bars all present a positive and upward look, capable of awakening on their own.

Not to mention Shi Dadan; the guy woke up directly. His side quest is simply like a free gift, just like a character forcibly inserted by the author because the plot couldn't be written anymore.

Therefore, although Qin Huai has been practicing the dim sum required by side quests and main quests during this time, his state is actually quite leisurely, in a state of "practice if I can, and it doesn't matter if I can't practice it."

Whether it is practicing thickening, brushing knife skills, or learning cloud patterns and ending up making egg tarts, it is acceptable. What is not learning? What if a side quest that requires him to make egg tarts is touched out in the future? Wouldn't that be a profit?

But Qin Huai didn't expect Shi Dadan to care so much about his side quest, even more than he himself cared.

Qin Huai thought for a while and said: "I think you can try."

Shi Dadan put down the egg tart and said very seriously: "The dim sum I really want to eat is not the Four Happiness Rolls at all. I have no memory of the Four Happiness Rolls, and I have no impression of them. I don't want to eat them at all. The dim sum I want to eat is egg tarts. Only after eating this egg tart today did I realize that egg tarts are so delicious!"

"The dim sum I, Shi Dadan, want to eat now is delicious egg tarts!"

As soon as Shi Dadan's voice fell, the game prompt sounded in Qin Huai's mind.

"Ding, congratulations on discovering a side quest. Please check it on the game panel."

Qin Huai:???

What the hell? This works too? He had never used this trick before, so why did it work when Shi Dadan said it? Just because he is a mythical beast? Is Dang Kang so willful?

Qin Huai was stunned. He was stunned for seven or eight seconds before reaching out to click on the game panel to check the newly acquired side quest.

【Delicious Egg Tarts】: As an awakened Dang Kang, Shi Dadan has eaten countless delicious dim sums in two lifetimes. There are not many dim sums that can make him yearn to eat from the bottom of his heart, and today's egg tarts count as one. As for what kind of egg tart is a delicious egg tart, it depends on Shi Dadan's definition of a delicious egg tart. Please make egg tarts that Shi Dadan finds delicious to satisfy his wish.

Task Reward: 【A segment of Zhao Chengan's dream】

Qin Huai:?

??

???

Whose dream?

Zhao Chengan?

Qin Huai only felt that Zhao Chengan had a lively personality, but was rigid in making dim sum, and was a person who was witty and humorous. He was not a person who liked to be trapped in a small kitchen, but he was truly passionate about dim sum, and was an exceptionally serious and responsible person during work hours. He was a relatively split and contrasting person.

But he never thought Zhao Chengan was a monster.

The guy really doesn't look like a monster. Those monsters, one by one, except for An Youyou who is relatively more like a human, the others can really be seen to be not very normal.

But Zhao Chengan...

The guy is really normal.

When eating melons, he is all ears and eyes, and has extreme judgment ability, is proficient in human relationships, and is familiar with interpersonal relationships.

Based on Qin Huai's understanding of these monsters, the reason most monsters fail to undergo tribulation is that they have entered the world, but have not fully entered the world. They are trying to learn how to be human, but they never understand what a real human is, which is why they failed.
