"What?"

Mu Linglan doubted that she had heard correctly.

Yu Huai pointed to the shared electric bike next to him, "My phone was taken away. Scan one for me and I'll return it to you later."

Ren Mulinglan repeatedly told herself: Keep your composure and don't get angry. Getting angry will only make you sick, and no one can take your place, especially since this is happening in front of a camera.

But she really couldn't hold back anymore, and said with a hint of anger, "Your phone was confiscated, but mine wasn't confiscated either?"

"It was indeed my oversight." Yu Huai didn't care about her tone or her feelings, and instead said to the photographer who had come with him, "Help us scan one of them."

Two vehicles.

Mu Linglan had no desire to ride in the same car as this scoundrel.

After Yu Huai's photographer scanned the code, Yu Huai thanked him, turned on the power, and headed straight for the pedestrian street.

Behind.

Seeing that the scoundrel had once again abandoned her and ridden off on his bike, Mu Linglan finally couldn't help but roll her eyes.

I was so stupid, really, to choose someone like that as my partner.

Despite having considered changing partners countless times, she still rode the shared electric scooter and chased after Yu Huai.

I followed him on my electric bike for about five or six minutes, and then Yu Huai stopped again.

This time, Mu Linglan learned her lesson and wouldn't be so presumptuous as to think that he was waiting for her on purpose.

In fact, Yu Huai wasn't waiting for her.

"Hey, who gave you permission to set up a stall here!"

The pancake vendor, who had initially thought business was coming and forced a smile, instantly lost his smile upon hearing the unfriendly question, and countless thoughts raced through his mind.

He looked at the handsome young man riding a shared electric scooter in front of him, then at the photographers with their long lenses and cameras following behind him, and hesitated before asking, "Who are you?"

Yu Huai took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to the boss, saying, "From the Bureau of Government Affairs."

Although Mu Linglan was positioned some distance away from the two of them, her eyesight was excellent.

In addition, Yu Huai did not try to hide it, but instead held the document up in the air openly. She could easily see that what Yu Huai was holding was an ID card.

Upon hearing him say that he was from the "Blind Management Bureau," Mu Linglan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At the same time, she realized that she had misunderstood the scoundrel. It turned out that he wasn't targeting her, but was scoundrel to everyone.

The pancake vendor, however, couldn't manage a smile.

The ID card in front of him, and the phrase "blind bureau," made it clear to him that they were obviously playing him for a fool.

Although the boss was also a young man under thirty, he didn't care about the entertainment industry and didn't know Yu Huai.

His face had already darkened, and if it weren't for the cameras behind Yu Huai, he would have already cursed.

"Ping-ping!"

What brings you here?

As the boss spoke, he slammed the iron spatula on the griddle where he made scallion pancakes, making a loud noise.

Yu Huai: "Don't you run a scallion pancake stall? Of course I'll buy scallion pancakes."

"Buying cakes, huh?" The shopkeeper's gloomy expression brightened slightly. "What would you like...?"

"But I have no money."

The boss's face darkened again, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

If you don't have money, what are you talking about?

Mu Linglan, who was not far away, could no longer laugh. She looked at Yu Huai with a hint of worry.

You scoundrel, aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?

"But I can trade you the fish I caught."

As Yu Huai spoke, he picked up the large box containing the fish catch from the ground.

Looking at the large, opaque box in his hand, the boss's expression softened slightly again.

Coincidentally, he really does love eating fish.

Although I still don't know what Yu Huai does, everyone has difficult times when they're away from home.

Moreover, it's not uncommon for anglers to run out of money and have no phone battery.

In business, harmony is key to making money. Although the other party cheated him a few times, a pancake isn't worth much. By exchanging it for fish, he could still make a profit...

"Where's the fish?"

The boss stared blankly at the empty box in front of him.

Yu Huai: "Haven't fished yet."

Inhale—

Exhale—

After glancing at the camera again, the boss swallowed the word "get lost" that was about to come out.

"But I'm an expert, you can tell, right? Once I catch a fish, I'll bring it to you, okay?"

"Bring it to me?"

The boss suddenly chuckled, but the smile looked sinister no matter how you looked at it. "Alright, I'll make you a pancake."

As he spoke, he began to act, asking, "Any dietary restrictions?"

"There are no dietary restrictions; feel free to add whatever you like."

"Add as much as you like," the boss laughed again. "Just a few minutes."

A few minutes later.

Yu Huai took the hot scallion pancake, thanked the owner, and reiterated that he would definitely bring it back after he finished fishing. Then he turned on the power and left.

He didn't start eating right away; time was of the essence, so he wanted to get to the fishing spot first and secure a good position.

Yu Huai had anticipated that there wouldn't be too many people at the fishing spot.

After all, this is near a scenic area and adjacent to an ancient town. When people come here, their primary purpose is definitely to visit the scenic area. Who would come here specifically to fish?

Then he realized that he had underestimated the anglers; there really were people fishing near the tourist attractions.

Yu Huai found a shady spot, took out a scallion pancake, and looked at the people not far away who had brought their families to fish, and couldn't help but complain.

What kind of amazing people are these!

What? Me too?

That's fine.

The weather in Wuzhen today is great, the temperature is just right, and the scallion pancakes are still warm even after walking all the way.

Yu Huai opened the plastic bag and suddenly smelled a foul odor.

He quickly glanced at it and thankfully it was just stinky tofu, and nothing else.

Yu Huai took a bite, and his expression changed instantly.

Seeing Yu Huai's constantly changing expression, Mu Linglan suddenly felt relieved, and all the resentment she had felt along the way dissipated completely.

She could easily figure it out: after that scoundrel provoked the stall owner so much, how could the stall owner not "add something extra" to his food?

snort!

You bastard, you bullied me just now, finally someone's going to teach you a lesson!

Yu Huai rolled his eyes, pounded his chest, swallowed the scallion pancake, and gasped for breath.

"Drink some water."

Mu Linglan handed over an unopened bottle of mineral water.

"Thank you." Yu Huai thanked him, downed half a bottle of water, and then continued eating the pancake.

Mu Linglan frowned and said, "You shouldn't eat it."

That jerk! How could he be so stupid? The boss is clearly trying to sabotage him, and he's still eating like an idiot.

Yu Huai was spitting out gasps from the spiciness, but only said one thing: "It's bad to waste food."

Mr. Yu has fallen into the trap of his small-farmer mentality once again.

Mu Linglan was stunned.

A little girl with a high ponytail, who looked only three or four years old and had a delicate, beautiful face, walked over.

She stared curiously at the handsome older brother in front of her who was eating a pancake, her eyes fixed on him.

"Do you want some?" Yu Huai handed the pancake forward.

"Have some decency!"

The slight improvement that had just begun to rise vanished completely, and Mu Linglan couldn't help but speak her mind.
