Evelin was shocked and immediately wanted to snatch the phone and delete the photos, but Jiayin had anticipated this, and the former ultimately failed to do so.
The photo was saved like this, and Evelin felt a little finished, but fortunately, at least no more embarrassing photos were taken...
"Where should we go to play later?"
Jiayin stopped teasing Evelin and started thinking about today's schedule. The crisis on Tuojinri should be over now...
Click! (Sound of someone pushing the door open)
"Zhe, are you free today? I want to..."
Before Ya finished speaking after entering the room, she noticed Jiayin and Evelin in their home clothes in the house, and immediately understood everything.
Because Zhe left so quickly yesterday and didn't even stay to sleep with her at night, she came here today. She didn't expect to encounter this situation as soon as she entered the door.
But before Ya could continue speaking, another voice came from behind her.
"Hmm? Am I... not here at the right time?"
It was Ailian. Since it was winter vacation, she was free almost every day unless she had any commissions.
After the girls looked at each other, they all looked at Zhe in tacit understanding. The most surprised one among them was Evelin.
Well, it looks like the crisis isn't over yet...
……
A few days after Tuojin Day, don’t ask how we overcame the crisis at that time. The only thing we knew was that we convinced them.
On this leisurely morning, Zhezheng and Ling stayed in their room together, challenging themselves to a game they hadn't completed before...
"Hurry! Brother, hurry up! I feel like I'm almost there! I'm almost there!"
"I know, Ling, hold on, I'm almost there."
As the intense sound passed, Ling's tense body suddenly relaxed.
"Huh~ Great, brother, I finally passed the level!"
She breathed a sigh of relief and then put down her phone. She had been stuck at this level for a long time. Today, with the help of her brother, she finally passed it.
"Well, yes, but let's not play for now. Lina just sent a message saying that she might bring a special customer to the store."
Zhe also put down his phone. Ling nodded after hearing this.
"Well, I'll leave it to you. I didn't get enough sleep last night, so I'm going to catch up on some sleep first~"
After saying this, Ling took off her coat and got into bed. Seeing this, Zhe didn't say much and quietly left the room.
Just then, Zhe heard a loud noise coming from downstairs, and immediately went downstairs to check the situation. Sure enough, it was Lina.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Zhe, the manager~"
"Well, good afternoon, Lina."
After Zhe finished speaking, he was about to ask the other party why he came here today, but at this moment, a voice sounded.
"Lina, it's not here. I'll look for it on the back shelf!"
An old lady wearing a green coat and dressed very luxuriously behind Lina spoke, and the former nodded while reminding her.
"Okay, ah, the edge of the shelf is very hard, please be careful not to get hurt."
Seeing the old woman walk away, Lina shifted her gaze back to Zhe's face.
Chapter 394 Lina and the Black Dumpling
"Who is this old woman? She seems to be looking for something?"
Zhe looked at Lina in front of him with some confusion, and the latter spoke with a hint of apology.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself first. This Granny Leisa is the person I'm serving this time. I'm helping her find a special kind of dango."
"Dumplings? Are they those sweet, sticky little snacks that you take two bites at a time?"
If so, Zhe felt that he could help, but Lina shook her head.
"Probably not. I'm not looking for an ordinary dumpling. According to my mother-in-law... it's a dumpling with a silly grin."
"Lina! There are no silly smile dumplings on the shelf. I'll go look under the counter!"
"Okay, mother-in-law. Please don't disturb other guests."
Lina gave her mother-in-law some instructions again, and then continued to explain to Zhe.
"My mother-in-law couldn't explain what a silly smiling dumpling was, but she kept insisting on coming to Liufen Street to look for one, so I thought I'd try my luck at your shop..."
When Lina said this, Grandma Leisa came back from the other side.
"Complete! Complete! I can't find it! Lina! I can't find the silly smiling dumpling!"
"Please calm down, mother-in-law, I'm helping you find it."
"Good~"
The mother-in-law stood aside obediently, and after comforting her, Lina asked if there was any video about [Giggle Dumpling] in Zhe's store.
But unfortunately, even though Zhe tried his best to recall, he still had no relevant impression.
According to her mother-in-law's description, Lina spent the whole morning searching all the dim sum shops but couldn't find such big dumplings.
So Lina guessed that the so-called silly smiling dumpling might refer to something round that looked like it was smiling.
She thought of taking her mother-in-law to the doll store in the afternoon to look for one, which immediately reminded Zhe of Mr. Panda next to the coffee shop.
Upon hearing this, Lina's face immediately showed joy. She suddenly saw a glimmer of hope and immediately wanted to take her mother-in-law to continue searching.
But my mother-in-law was a little exhausted because she had been running around for several hours.
"In that case, let Grandma rest here for a while while I go take a picture of Mr. Panda.
Bring it back and show it to mother-in-law. She’ll know if it’s the dumpling she’s looking for. I’ll be back soon.”
"Thank you so much~ I'll be here to take care of my mother-in-law and wait for your good news."
After Lina said this, Zheye took action immediately. He was very fast and came back with the photos in just a few minutes.
But at this time, he saw Lina preparing afternoon tea for her mother-in-law, and Zhe was immediately shocked when he saw this.
Fortunately, because of lack of time, Lina did not prepare it herself, so these were carefully selected in a nearby store when she was looking for dumplings for her mother-in-law.
Zhe finally felt relieved after hearing this. To be frank, it would be safer if Lina did not participate in the production of [Lina's Special Afternoon Tea].
At this moment, the mother-in-law suddenly mentioned the photo of Tuanzi, and Zhe immediately handed the photo to her, but after looking at it, she shook her head, indicating that it was not the Tuanzi she was looking for.
Then the mother-in-law's description became vague again. Sometimes she said it was a drooling dumpling, sometimes she said it was a loud-mouthed dumpling, and sometimes she said it was a crying dumpling.
Zhe heard something wrong. The description did not sound like a dumpling, but more like a human baby.
While Zhe was lost in thought, Lina comforted her mother-in-law and then looked at him.
"Master Zhe...excuse me for a moment. I owe you some explanation."
Lina's tone seemed a little heavy, and she came into the studio with her.
"First, please allow me to express my gratitude and apology for causing you to travel so far. Actually, this woman isn't just a client... she's also my assessor."
Lina represented Victoria Home Services in the New Elido Home Services Association's annual evaluation and selection process. This year, the evaluation for the best service of the year was for a mother-in-law named Leisa Christie.
Having participated in assessments in previous years, Lina had a general idea of the service content, but this time it was a little special. Mother-in-law Leisa did not make any requests related to housekeeping services, but just kept asking Lina to help her find dumplings.
"It seems this assessment is more difficult than expected. Mother-in-law is probably deliberately making it difficult...
I will handle the following problems myself. I cannot continue to affect your business."
Lina expressed her thoughts, but Zhe did not intend to sit idly by. On the one hand, he wanted to help Lina, and on the other hand, he noticed some problems with his mother-in-law.
"It doesn't matter. The store isn't doing much business anyway. Let me help with Mother-in-law's affairs. After all, Liufen Street is my home turf."
"Really? This really helps me a lot. You're always so reliable. No wonder Ailian and Kelin like you."
Lina said this in the second half, and it was not known whether it was intentional or unintentional, but Zhe did not care.
So, at Lina's suggestion, the two decided to catch any [suspected dumplings] who met the criteria in Liufen Street!
But speaking of dumplings, there's a pair of beautiful black dumplings right in front of me, and they look plump too...
The two of them then began searching around Liufen Street. During this time, Zhe wondered for a moment whether he should take a photo of Lina?
But he finally gave up the idea. If it were any other time, Lina would definitely not refuse, and would even tidy up her appearance and let him take pictures.
But now that the goal is to find Tuanzi, such behavior may make the other party think too much. After all, Lina is a gentle big sister with a little bit of a dark element.
The two were walking on the street. Lina and Zhe were not much different in height, but if the former chose to float, she would be much taller than the latter.
If we hugged each other like that, it would probably be right at the chest area...
Zhe was taking pictures of things related to Tuanzi everywhere. When he put down his camera in front of the music store, Lina came over with great interest.
"Is there anything here that meets the requirements of a dumpling? It's round and makes a loud noise... I see, it's a record~
This music store has really good taste, and their collection is full of… oh my, this record, just looking at the cover brings back interesting memories…"
Lina looked at the photo with some surprise, as if she was thinking about something. Seeing this, Zhe couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Are the songs on this album good? Or do they bring back any interesting memories?"
"It's a bit of both. There was a little incident during the recording of this album. One of the musicians suddenly withdrew, and my job was to fill in and complete the performance for her."
Lina supported her right elbow with her left hand and gently supported her chin with her right palm, lost in memories.
Chapter 395 The Most Beautiful City Lady
"That's a truly challenging service. By the way, do you want to guess which instrument I'm responsible for?"
Lina's words stumped Zhe. He remembered a time when he met her on the street and she was playing the guitar.
The reason was that a street singer asked Lina to help him look after his stall. Later, because of the audience and Zhe's expectations, she happened to be in the mood to play a piece.
"Could it be a guitar?"
"That's right, it's Dian, Ji, he actually guessed it~"
Lina looked very happy, and Zhe smiled when he saw this.
"Because Lina's performance last time left a deep impression on me."
"Oh, it's my honor~"
Lina's favorability increased by 5 points, and the current favorability is 85 points. The emotional value gained is 800 points, and the current emotional value is 46300 points.
"Okay, we've taken photos of every place we can think of, let's go back to Granny Lessa. Granny's dumplings might look different, but I don't mind that much.
After all, the assessment content of the Home Economics Association in previous years was the same, either ordinary service work or cleaning up the empty spaces.
This time, I'm actually looking for something imaginary, which at least adds some creativity. I can only hope that these photos contain the dumplings that my mother-in-law wants~"
Lina still maintained her gentle and dignified appearance with a smile, and although Zhe had some guesses in his mind at this time, he was still not sure.
After all, according to Lina, the mother-in-law was an examiner sent by the Household Affairs Association. Maybe she did it on purpose... ?
After all, it is not uncommon for some examiners to imitate special personnel in order to test the service provider's ability to respond.
The two returned to the video store. The mother-in-law had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw them come back, she immediately spoke happily.
"Oh! You're back! Lina and...Lina's handsome boy!"
"Haha, mother-in-law, I've already introduced him to you before. This is Zhe. He's really good-looking, but he's not mine~"
Lina's kind smile remained unchanged, and she corrected her mother-in-law's words as usual. Seeing this, Zhe didn't say much, and then the former took out the photo.
"Okay, mother-in-law, we brought the photos. Let's see if there's the loud-voiced dumpling you're looking for?"
"Hmm... um... no, this isn't my dumpling. The dumpling I'm looking for... oh oh oh, I remember now! Waves! The dumpling is floating in the white waves, up and down...
Yes, that’s right! It’s a white wave ball! Just like the little ball floating beside Lina!
"I'm glad you like my Bombs, but they're not [Little Dumplings]. They're my important friends, and they have their own names."
Lina narrowed her eyes, smiled and introduced the little Bomb next to her to the old woman.
"For example, this little Bomb with a golden bob with bangs is called Dusula. If I hadn't muted it beforehand, it would be yelling about how [Dumpling] had changed again."
Zhe had the same doubts. He had originally wondered if his mother-in-law was talking about a child, but now this description didn't seem likely...
