CHAPTER 53: CHAPTER 53: JUST OVER ONE THOUSAND

Pei Yan walked over to two other stalls, ordered three servings of takoyaki, and then two servings of fried noodles.

The pancakes were made quickly. Qin Yun didn’t wait more than two minutes before they were ready.

Because it was stuffed with so much, the pancake was larger than usual. Qin Yun took a bite, squinting her eyes slightly. More meat definitely makes it better!

Since they ordered almost at the same time, when they got to Pei Yan with their pancakes, the takoyaki was almost ready too.

The two of them just took the takoyaki and pancakes to a table for the fried noodles and placed the food on it.

Yang Leqi used a bamboo skewer to pick up a takoyaki and put it in her mouth. Then she opened her eyes wide in shock, "This takoyaki has such large pieces of octopus inside!"

She looked at the price, only twenty-one for a serving, with six pieces in a serving. And the octopus inside, it’s truly large chunks, not just tiny bits.

Yang Leqi immediately felt that this takoyaki was really worth it.

To show she wasn’t lying, she specially used two bamboo skewers to peel one open and showed the octopus meat to the camera for her fans.

As she looked, she said, "This octopus meat should be from a large octopus’s tentacle. It’s really big, and the taste is pretty good. Fans who love takoyaki should give it a try."

After showing them, she popped it into her mouth, saying, "I’ll help you all eat it first."

Fans in the livestream started leaving comments.

[Ahhh, my daughter, you’ve changed! You used to let us eat it! Who led you astray!?]

[I really want to eat this. The octopus meat is truly generous. I once bought three pieces for fifteen, yet the octopus meat inside wasn’t this big!]

[Agree +1, I previously bought six pieces for twenty, but this octopus meat is six times bigger than mine... The difference is like, one is a newborn baby, and the other is an ancestor from centuries ago!]

[Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter, an ancestor from centuries ago!!]

[Hahaha, you guys keep thinking, I’ve already ordered delivery.]

[Smart sis! I’m ordering delivery too!]

[You girls go ahead, I’ll enjoy it online for now. I’ll go visit over the weekend when I’m off!]

While the fans were chatting, Yang Leqi already finished her serving of takoyaki. It turns out saying you can’t finish it was a lie!

Pei Yan arrived holding two servings of fried noodles just as the two finished their pancakes.

"Here, your share." Qin Yun reluctantly handed the remaining takoyaki to Pei Yan.

Pei Yan placed the fried noodles on the table, and seeing Qin Yun’s reluctance, he took it with a smile, using a bamboo skewer to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Qin Yun’s gaze followed the piece, landing on Pei Yan’s thin lips. She subconsciously licked her lips.

Then she realized what she had just done and immediately looked away. She had just stared at Pei Yan’s mouth for several seconds!!

Silently berating herself, it’s just takoyaki! Can’t I just buy more?

Moreover, why lick her lips when watching someone eat!

It must be because the tasty takoyaki was taken away, she was just watching the takoyaki.

Yes, nothing wrong with that!

Qin Yun directly opened a pair of disposable chopsticks and started eating the fried noodles.

Pei Yan only ate one piece before stopping, as if he was only tasting it.

Yang Leqi, after a pancake and a serving of takoyaki, felt her stomach was going to burst.

Pei Yan only ate one piece of takoyaki and half the fried noodles.

However, he had already asked the owner for two plates, split the other half and set it aside, leaving it for Qin Yun.

"Aren’t you guys eating anymore?" Qin Yun looked at the remaining half-serving of fried noodles and takoyaki, blinking in confusion.

That’s some low stamina.

"I can’t eat anymore." Yang Leqi quickly shook her head, patting her obviously full stomach. She had eaten a lot already and couldn’t fit another bite.

Pei Yan was never particularly keen on food. He only ate a piece of takoyaki earlier to tease Qin Yun, who seemed to be drooling.

He didn’t enjoy these things, but knowing Qin Yun wouldn’t be full, he ordered two servings.

But if he didn’t eat, the fans would probably have comments, so he divided it into two, half for each.

Seeing that neither wanted to eat, Qin Yun smiled broadly and happily took the leftovers, saying, "We can’t let it go to waste since we bought it; wasting food is shameful."

Fans in the livestream watched with wide eyes as Qin Yun ate a pancake, two boxes of takoyaki, and one and a half servings of fried noodles.

But they couldn’t say anything...

After all, as she said, buying and not eating is too wasteful, wasting food is shameful.

Plus, it’s food her brother didn’t finish.

What can they say?

Nothing...

Because they also really want to eat what their brother left behind!!

After the three filled themselves up, they contentedly headed back to the hotel for a gathering.

Compared to Qin Yun’s group’s huge success, the other group experienced a big wealth gap...

Chen Yao led Wang Sirui and Qin Hao, with their goal clear from the start, to sell potatoes at the market.

They indeed reached the market quickly, sold fast too, but realized afterwards they only made over sixty yuan.

Though they still didn’t know what the next task would be, since the director said more money earned in this round would benefit the next one,

such little money surely wasn’t enough.

But thinking again, Pei Yan’s group was selling corn kernels, which wouldn’t earn much more.

Even if they sold more, it wouldn’t be more than a hundred, couldn’t possibly be much more than them.

With this in mind, they even worried that spending money on lunch would leave them with nothing for the next round, so they opted for no lunch.

After waiting in the lobby for almost an hour, they finally saw the others coming back.

"You finally returned, how much did you make?" Wang Sirui, who was lying on the sofa from hunger, perked up and jumped from the sofa to ask upon seeing them.

"Not much." Yang Leqi pretended to speak modestly, blowing at her barely visible bangs, responding slowly.

"How little?" Wang Sirui’s compulsion was being tested by her tempo.

Chen Yao and Qin Hao also came up, their three pairs of eyes staring fixedly at her.

"Just a bit over a thousand." She smiled sweetly, lifting her face.

Wang Sirui, Chen Yao, Qin Hao, "...???"

The three looked at each other.

What had they just heard?

Did they hear wrong?

Their gazes crossed; seemed like they didn’t mishear?

"Did you just say over a thousand, not over a hundred?" Chen Yao asked carefully, his voice tense.

"Yeah, one thousand five hundred, though we spent almost a hundred on food," Yang Leqi tried to hold back her laughter, pretending to recall seriously.
