Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Ordering Wedding Cakes (5)_1

"It must be true, Shopkeeper Liu even personally came to deliver a gift this morning,"

Jin Lingling said with a hint of jealousy. It was all her father’s fault for seeking out Shopkeeper Liu so many times without succeeding in securing the business with Fuman Building. If they had established a partnership with Fuman Building, wouldn’t it have been easy for her to see the Young Master more often?

Clearly, Meng Chunyan was also jealous, but she just pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.

After Ma Xiaonan had paid the silver, the group left the shop one by one and departed on their horse-drawn carriage.

Lin Yuan watched as Jin Lingling’s carriage led the way out, the smile on her face slowly solidifying at the corners of her lips. Today, Jin Lingling hadn’t picked a quarrel with her, nor had she said any unpleasant words to mock or ridicule her, which was nothing like Jin Lingling’s usual style.

The reason could only be one thing: guilt.

Lin Yuan frowned, her previous speculation was now affirmed. Jin Lingling had most likely come to test the waters today, or perhaps to feign goodwill. This was the guilt psychology of someone who had done something wrong but failed to accomplish it; acting favorable to your face after wronging you in secret, creating a false impression, leading one to believe she was innocent.

What Jin Lingling didn’t realize was that her little tricks were child’s play in the eyes of Lin Yuan, who had battled her way through five-star hotels for many years.

As she was pondering, a crisp call suddenly pulled her back to the moment.

Lin Yuan turned her head and saw it was Ma Xiaonan, the one who had bought the most pastries earlier.

"Miss, is there something you need?" Lin Yuan had a good impression of her; seeing her not leaving with the carriages of the others, she knew Ma Xiaonan must have something to tell her.

Indeed, Ma Xiaonan took hold of her sleeve and led her into the shop, pointing at the festive cakes imprinted with blessings like "centuries of harmony" and asked with sparkling eyes, "Boss, are these cakes used for weddings?"

Lin Yuan hadn’t expected this young girl to be asking about that; she wasn’t of marriageable age yet, was she?

Nevertheless, Lin Yuan still nodded with a smile.

Ma Xiaonan became even more excited, "My cousin is getting married in a month, and I’ve been worrying about what gift to give her. I think the wedding cakes in your shop are especially beautiful, and just now I also, hehe, had a taste, and found them incredibly delicious. Boss, I’d like to order some wedding cakes from your shop to give to her when she gets married. What do you think?"

So it was her cousin who was getting married. Lin Yuan nodded and agreed, "Of course, Miss. Don’t be fooled by the plain look of my wedding cakes; I can guarantee you won’t find cakes like these anywhere else in Zhuma Town."

"Exactly, I’d also been to that Century-old Cake Shop they talk about. I’ve tried their pastries too, but I didn’t find their stuff tasty at all. It’s not even as good as the popcorn here. I really don’t get what they are thinking, why they don’t buy from your shop," Ma Xiaonan said with a puzzled look.

Of course, it’s because they look down on me, and that’s why they don’t buy my stuff. Lin Yuan thought to herself, but refrained from stating the actual reason.

"Miss, when do you need these wedding cakes, how many do you plan to order, and where should they be sent?"

As she spoke, Lin Yuan ushered Ma Xiaonan over to the counter where Meng Liangdong and Mo Sanniang had already prepared paper and pen, ready to note down the details.

However, Ma Xiaonan didn’t seem too clear on these details; she scratched her head and said hesitantly, "I don’t really know when the wedding is, but I know where they live. It’s at the end of this street, in the alley facing east, the second house."

Mo Sanniang, who was counting boxes, suddenly slipped, and the box in her hand fell to the ground with a clunk, drawing the attention of everyone around her.
