Chapter 187 Awakening

Ouyang fell into a long silence after hearing that if he wanted to eat fruit, he had to go to Suzhou to eat it. Qin Huai didn't pay attention to his good brother's silence, because the sambal in the steamer was ready.

【Three Ding Bao Grade B】

All grade B.

Play stably.

Qin Huai opened the lid himself. The moment he opened the lid, steam rushed to his face. The heat was mixed with the unique wheat aroma of the buns, silently announcing to everyone around him that this pot of buns was really delicious.

Anyone who often eats steamed buns knows that you can tell whether the steamed buns are delicious or not by smelling them.

Smell sounds relatively abstract, but every neighbor who lives in the community near Qin's Breakfast Shop, especially those who have to go to school at 7 o'clock, has to get up early every day, full of expectations and hungry to come to Qin's Breakfast Shop just for the sake of it. For high school students who want to eat the buns they want, identifying buns by their smell is the most basic skill.

The aroma of delicious steamed buns is different from ordinary steamed buns.

Especially the meat buns. Although the meat filling is tightly wrapped in the bun skin, the aroma still comes out along with the aroma of wheat.

That sweet smell, full of carbohydrates, fats, sugars and a series of human beings' most primitive pursuit and desire for calories, will quickly occupy the nasal cavity of people who are in urgent need of a delicious breakfast.

At that moment, the smell of flowers, books, dust, and gasoline all disappeared. Even if the breakfast shop was next to a braised food restaurant, the scent of the braised food could be temporarily ignored.

The whole world only smells of steamed buns.

And it tastes like the buns made by Qin Huai himself.

If someone insists on asking what the taste of the steamed buns made by Qin Huai is, then these customers who come to buy the steamed buns every morning with the intention of opening a blind box will definitely tell them loudly:

It just tastes like buns!

As long as you get a little closer and take a deep breath, you will know that this morning you are safe, your bet is right, and you can eat the steamed bun flavor of your dream package!

No matter it is severe cold or hot, windy or rainy, or even a typhoon day, as long as the Qin Family Breakfast Restaurant is open, everyone will dare to queue up for this steamed bun flavor!

As long as you smell the fragrance, your saliva will automatically secrete, your brain will automatically render it, and you will feel like you have eaten the bun before you even take it in your hand!

It's a pity that this feeling is only understood by the residents near Qin's breakfast shop, and the guests at Yunzhong Canteen are destined not to understand.

Because the buns sold by Qin Huai and Qin Congwen in Yunzhong Canteen are not the same price at all, they are sold separately.

When everyone buys steamed buns, they simply cannot buy the joy of opening a blind box.

Qin Huai quickly picked out the buns one by one and put them on plates. He didn't know how much food each employee had, but he knew that everyone would definitely eat more today than before. After all, after working for so long, you should be hungry no matter how small your appetite is.

So when Qin Huai made the last batch of steamed buns, he prepared them according to Qin Luo's appetite, and also took into account the small portions of Ouyang, Chen Huihong, Chen Huihui, Luo Jun, Qu Jing and even Chen Yingjun.

Qin Luo's buns don't need this batch of buns. Qin Luo won't be back from school until the evening, and Qin Huai will give her the buns in advance.

Qin Huai and everyone filled a large plate of steamed buns, along with unlimited refills of tangerine peel tea and the nourishing-looking stewed pigeon with Gastrodia elata, and everyone had the illusion that it was the Chinese New Year.

The big plate of steamed buns in front of you looks so shabby, but it's actually so rich.

Many waiters at Yunzhong Canteen have never eaten so many sandwich buns since they joined the company.

You know, today's three-pack is limited in purchase. It is impossible for the canteen to really limit the purchase of 5 buns per person per day, but it can only purchase 5 buns at a time. Many nearby residents queued up from morning to noon just to buy a few more buns.

But how many are on the plate in front of everyone now?

There are 12 of them!

This is not an ordinary 12 three-pack, this is a special benefit for Yunzhong Canteen employees that symbolizes privilege!

If you carry these 12 buns and walk around the Yunzhong community, you will be the most handsome boy in the whole community. Even Grandma Ding carrying two big bags of fermented steamed buns can't cover up your brilliance.

"Everyone has worked hard all day. Let's take some supplements." Qin Huai said with a smile.

There was no need for Qin Huai to greet him, someone had already started eating first.

The first one to start was An Youyou. She picked up the bun and stuffed it into her mouth even faster and more decisively than Ouyang.

When other employees were still hesitating and thinking about whether this plate should be for one person or several people, whether to eat one or two leftovers and take them home for the family to eat, or whether to eat happily first and not think about so much, An Youyou's bun has already entered her mouth.

An Youyou had already eaten sandwich buns yesterday.

But she felt it was not enough, far from enough.

I can’t get enough of such delicious buns.

When she gets rich in the future, she will eat three diced buns, one five diced buns, one Sixi dumplings, one fermented steamed buns, and whatever is available in the cafeteria every morning. She must eat a hearty meal before going to work.

Soon, the employees of the Yunzhong Canteen, who were all slumped on their chairs from exhaustion, all held buns in their hands and started devouring them happily, taking a mouthful of buns and a sip of tangerine peel tea with intoxicated expressions.

This is what Qu Jing saw when she walked into the cafeteria.

As a professional neurologist, Qu Jing's first reaction was to call the police.

Then Qu Jing took a look at what everyone was eating.

Sanding buns and tangerine peel tea.

It's okay.

When Qu Jing came in, Qin Huai was eating pigeon stewed with gastrodia elata.

The ordinary stewed pigeon with Gastrodia elata and the delicious sandwich buns were in sharp contrast. Qin Huai took one bite of pigeon and one bite of sandwich buns and felt deeply that Gong Liang really loved him.

After eating S-level Sanding Bao, I can still eat D-level Gastrodia stewed pigeon, and I still eat it every now and then.

It is indeed a gold medal sales!

"Qin Huai, long time no see." Qu Jing came in and took off her mask with a smile, "You caused a sensation when you came back. The smell of buns was everywhere I went this morning. The director of neurosurgery came to our department to find me. Ask me if I can help you purchase Sanding Bao.”

Qin Huai could only ask: "Have you eaten?"

Qu Jing shook his head, Qin Huai pushed the bun in front of him towards Qu Jing: "Eat some."

Qu Jing was not polite and sat down to eat three ding buns.

Qin Huai took a moment to look at Qu Jing. He was very good, with a rosy complexion, normal lip color, and sufficient energy and blood.

He won't die in a short time.

Noticing Qin Huai looking at herself, Qu Jing smiled: "I'm in a good state of mind recently."

"Although I still get complaints from patients occasionally, I wrap myself up too tightly and disrespect patients. I can't do anything about most of the patients I encounter about Alzheimer's disease. The progress of the new paper is not going well. I occasionally sit in front of the computer in the middle of the night. Sometimes, I still have a strong urge to stab myself on the wrist, but it's already good." Qu Jing said softly, her voice was light, and you could tell that she was not forcing a smile but she really thought so.

"Sister Hong is always worried about me. She often makes excuses to deliver fruit to me at nine or ten o'clock in the evening. She comes to my house with a big bag of imported fruits or even a cut fruit plate. Make sure there is no fruit peeling knife on the table, in the kitchen You can rest assured that all the tools are in their place.”

"She often complains to me that you haven't come back for so long in Gusu. She has neither tangerine peel tea to drink nor snacks to eat. When she runs errands across provinces from Huang Ji, only shortbread can be delivered normally, and fermented steamed buns from Gusu. When Su brought it over, he didn’t eat it directly. It was soft and chewy.”

Qin Huai was shocked: "Sister Hong really ordered takeout from across the province?!"

"Yes, but it seems that she is taking out Mr. Luo's cross-province takeaway. Mr. Luo drinks tangerine peel tea every morning, which is delivered from Suzhou the day before."

Qin Huai didn't understand. Qin Huai was greatly shocked. He just said it, but he didn't expect Luo Jun to actually do it.

Qin Huai thought for a while and didn't know what to say, so he could only redirect the topic to Qu Jing: "I can see that you look pretty good now."

Qu Jing nodded: "Maybe it's because I secretly basked in the sun recently."

Seeing Qin Huai startled slightly, Qu Jing continued: "Over the years, I have been pretending that I am severely allergic to ultraviolet rays, and I have even believed it. Not only do I wrap myself up tightly every day, but I also avoid the sun when I look at it. , Even the house I rented did not face the sun. I had to close the blackout curtains tightly every day when I went to bed to ensure that the sun would not shine into my room. "

"But the bedroom in the house that Sister Hong rented to me faces the sun."

"One night when Sister Hong came to chat with me, she opened the curtains in my room to ventilate the room. That night I wrote my thesis until two or three in the morning. I didn't pay attention to the curtains before going to bed. I woke up the next morning because of the sunshine. ”

"The sunshine was particularly warm, so warm. The moment I woke up, I suddenly felt that I hadn't been in the sun like this for many years."

"At that time, I was thinking, it turns out that basking in the sun is such a comfortable thing." "It turns out that I can really live a normal life."

"Even if my body is full of scars and sinuous and hideous. Even if I harm myself at every turn and lose my mind, my mother Qu has to bandage me while crying every time."

"Even if I have to wear a mask every day and pretend that I am allergic to ultraviolet rays, when I am alone, I always feel like a dark monster living in the sewer all year round. I cannot see the light, and I dare not show my true face to others. As long as others find me Whatever it is, I will avoid it.”

"But I can still live a normal life."

"There will still be normal people like you, Sister Hong, and Mr. Luo who accept me and understand me."

"I can still bask in the sun when the sun is shining and take my gloves off in front of you."

"There are still doctors and nurses in the department who know that I have an eccentric personality, that I am not good at talking, and that I don't like to talk to others. They still drag me to chat and gossip, just to let me help them buy tangerine peel tea and three-packed buns."

"And I can really control myself from harming myself."

Qu Jing said with some pride: "I have had no new wounds for 45 days."

Hearing what Qu Jing said, Qin Huai felt very emotional for a moment.

Qu Jing's side mission is the most difficult side mission to complete in Qinhuai. There are no clues, no direction, and no clue. The most important thing is that Qu Jing's dream only has one paragraph.

Qin Huai must complete this puzzling side task in order to obtain Qu Jing's only dream.

To put it simply, there is no way to take advantage of Qu Jing's task, and there is no shortcut.

Before going to Suzhou, Qin Huai had tried his best, but it didn't work.

This directly led to Gong Liang's mission being overtaken by the latecomer. Gong Liang's memory was unlocked before Qu Jing's dream was obtained.

But in terms of the degree of crisis, Qu Jing is definitely far better than Gong Liang. Her obsession is deeper than Gong Liang's, and she is in the last life that is about to fail.

At first, Qin Huai didn't quite understand why Luo Jun and Chen Huihong would patch him up in advance and remind him indirectly that not every spirit can successfully overcome the tribulation. Even if he failed, he shouldn't have any psychological burden.

After reading all Luo Jun's memories, Qin Huai understood a little bit.

Many times it's not that the spirits can't overcome the calamity, it's that they don't want to. Their calamity is never other people's, but their own hearts. They cannot overcome the obstacles in their hearts, and cannot forgive themselves for various reasons, which makes their obsessions deeper and deeper, and they are beyond redemption.

But Qin Huai didn't expect that Chen Huihong said one thing but actually did something else. She said that it would be difficult for Qu Jing to succeed in overcoming the tribulation, and even if Qin Huai failed, don't feel guilty and blame yourself. These are the fate of the devil, and what others can do is limited.

But he secretly went to Luo Jun's house every day to receive fruits, went to Qu Jing's house to have a heart-to-heart talk with Qu Jing, checked the knives and strictly prohibited self-harm.

It can only be said that they are naturally warm-hearted.

Qin Huai looked at Qu Jing and felt that Qu Jing was different from before after not seeing him for more than a month.

In the past, Qu Jing was always indifferent, looking at everything indifferently. Except for being extra attentive to patients and showing a little enthusiasm, she treated other things equally, as if everything was like a floating cloud to her.

But now.

Although it is also faint, it has a little more popularity.

Before, Qin Huai was not sure that Qu Jing could live long, but now he was sure.

There is a high probability that Qu Jing will die in this life.

Qin Huai smiled and said, "Dean Qu should be very happy."

Qu Jing nodded and took out a scarf from her bag: "Mother Qu is very grateful to you for knitting a scarf for you, Sister Hong and Mr. Luo. Qin Huai, your scarf was knitted first. This was specially made by Mother Qu." The pictures I selected online look pretty good to me, but I don’t know why they look familiar, so I might be confused.”

Qin Huai quickly took the scarf and took a closer look.

Um…

It does look familiar. This logo should not be too familiar.

L…V.

Dean Qu’s aesthetics are pretty good, and he accurately selected the luxury brands that are most familiar to the public from a bunch of online pictures.

Qin Huai didn't say anything and silently accepted the scarf.

Not to mention, Dean Qu’s knitting skills are really good, the stitches are very good, and the scarf overall looks very beautiful, and it doesn’t even look fake from a distance.

Who can resist a genuine hand-knitted L-shaped wool scarf?

Qin Huai took a look at the time and found that it was less than 3 o'clock. He finally realized that something was wrong and asked:

"Are you on the day or night shift today?"

The day shift must not have finished get off work at this time, and the night shift should be sleeping at this time. How could Qu Jing appear in Yunzhong Canteen at this time.

"I got off work early today." Qu Jing said, "Our hospital sent me to the Gusu branch to study for two months. I will leave the day after tomorrow. I don't have to go to work this afternoon or tomorrow. I was asked to go home and pack my luggage."

"I came here specifically to ask Qin Huai about the situation in Suzhou, to see what seasonal clothes I need to bring, what the weather is like there, and whether commuting is convenient."

"I can live in the hospital's staff dormitory when I go to study this time, but as you know my situation, it will inevitably be inconvenient to live with other people, so I plan to rent a house by myself outside."

“Do you have any recommended locations?”

Qin Huai thought for a while: "I don't know the location, but I have a recommended full set of smart homes and a recommended Chinese medicine bone-setting shop."

Qu Jing:?

"But since you are going to study in Suzhou the day after, I have a heartfelt favor to ask you." Qin Huai looked solemn.

Qu Jing was misled by Qin Huai's solemn expression, thinking it was something very important. She immediately sat upright, with a serious look on her face, and nodded affirmatively: "You say it."

"I will open a small stove for you when the time comes. Don't tell me that I bought it from Huangji."

"Don't ask anyone to run errands to Huang Kee to buy snacks."

Huang Ji's business is already very good and cannot get better.

Qin Huai is really afraid of the private hospital where Qu Jing works. How much does your hospital pay doctors? Why is it so rich?

Qu Jing nodded in agreement without knowing why.

Although Qin Huai has lived in Gusu for more than a month, he doesn't know much about Gusu. After all, his range of activities is limited to 1 kilometer around Huang Ji.

But Qu Jing wants to rent a house, and Qin Huai can help. He asked Qu Jing for the address of the hospital in Suzhou, and then sent the address to Gong Liang, asking Gong Liang to ask his assistant to refer to nearby houses.

Qu Jing had to go home to pack her luggage. After packing Xiao Zao, she didn't stay long and went back.

After Qu Jing left, Qin Huai pondered her condition, thought about it, opened the game panel, and turned to the picture book.

The last time Qin Huai looked at the recipe, he really didn't pay attention to the status of other people's illustrated books.

Qu Jing’s illustrations ranked fourth.

Name: Qu Jing

Species: unknown

Status: About to awaken

Dreamland: 0/1

Recipe: None

Gift: None

Sure enough, Qu Jing's state changed.

Chen Huihong's fruit was not smooth, and Qu Jing's state changed from complete amnesia to about to awaken. It can be said that Qu Jing only has one final opportunity to start awakening.

This round, the grass, trees and monsters will score big points!
