The brat drank half of it, truly unable to drink any more, and looked at the Old Woman with a bitter face: "Grandma..."
The Old Woman dared not leave any of the soup at this moment; she picked up the soup bowl and downed it in one gulp.
Sweet... sickeningly sweet!
But she still had to pretend that this Human Brain Soup was extremely delicious.
"How is it? I made it, not bad, right?" Qin Che asked with a smile.
"Delicious! Really very delicious!"
"Then please settle the bill, it's four servings of Human Brain Soup in total." As Qin Che spoke, he called He Lulu over to handle their payment.
Watching the grandmother and grandson leave satisfied, Qin Che smiled.
Is this the sense of accomplishment gained from providing attentive service to a Guest and receiving a Super Surprise Good Review from them? It really is quite nice.
Just as Qin Che was preparing to slack off in the Restaurant Kitchen, feeling content, he spotted a white figure.
At that moment, his gaze was fixed on the woman wearing a white dress.
Qin Che froze, instantly straightening his back, turning his body mechanically, his face turning somewhat pale.
"Can't see me... can't see me..." Qin Che muttered under his breath, preparing to take a detour back to the kitchen.
"Hey!" The girl in the white dress's eyes lit up, and she waved happily toward Qin Che, "Little Brother! Over here!"
Qin Che's expression stiffened. He immediately knew this was bad. He pretended not to hear and hurried away, but unexpectedly bumped right into a solid chest.
Qin Che looked up at him; it was a man over two meters tall, wearing a black suit, with mottled knife scars on his face that made one's scalp tingle.
"Our Miss is greeting you."
Qin Che played dumb: "Your Miss? Is there one?"
He looked back around. He clearly saw Bai Weiwei, but it was as if he had automatically deleted her from his line of sight. He turned back to the Man in Suit and said, "No, there isn't. Ah! I just remembered! I have things to attend to in the kitchen. Ah, too many Guests during mealtime! Too busy! Really too busy, excuse me, I must take my leave!"
Just as Qin Che was about to slip away, the Man in Suit grabbed the back of his collar, lifted him up, carried him to the table where Bai Weiwei was sitting, and dropped him in front of her.
Qin Che's face was ashen. He forced himself to greet the beautiful young lady: "Miss Wei Wei, hello."
"Hello to you too, but my name isn't Bai Weiwei," Bai Weiwei replied politely, but she was greatly shocked internally.
The name she registered with upon checking in was completely different; how did this man know?
The Man in Suit standing nearby also had a change in expression.
"Huh?" Qin Che was stunned. The Relationship panel showed Bai Weiwei.
"My name is Bai Suya; you can just call me Xiao Ya," Bai Weiwei said.
"Ah, hello, Older Sister Xiao Ya!" Qin Che immediately became sweet-talking, hoping to please this woman so she would let him go.
But Bai Weiwei didn't think that way.
The name Bai Weiwei was too sensitive, so she always used an alias when traveling. Yet, Qin Che had just spoken her real name.
Bai Weiwei felt a secret joy in her heart: "What is this? This man acts like he has no interest in me on the surface, but secretly he's investigating me. Hmph hmph, isn't he still attracted by my charm?"
"Right, I still don't know your name," Bai Weiwei asked. "What is yours?"
"Jack!" Qin Che blurted out.
"Jack? That's a very gentlemanly name." Bai Weiwei rested her elbow on the table, cupping her delicate little face, admiring Qin Che's eyes, a lovesick expression appearing on her face. "Have you eaten? Why don't I treat you to a meal?"
Qin Che shrank back onto the restaurant sofa like a startled kitten. He glanced up at the Man in Suit beside him. Seeing him staring expressionlessly, Qin Che immediately flinched, but his expression was one of pleasant surprise: "Can I really eat with Older Sister Xiao Ya?"
"Brother Xiao, go order some Human food," Bai Weiwei instructed.
"Yes, Miss."
Once the Man in Suit left, Bai Weiwei asked, "Little Brother Jack, what are your thoughts on my previous suggestion?"
Qin Che was startled. It really was about that matter? Damn it! This damned charm of mine!
He took a deep breath and said with a sincere expression, "That might not be feasible. Older Sister Xiao Ya, you know, I am a whole being. If any part is missing, I am no longer myself. You probably wouldn't want to see an incomplete Jack, right?"
Qin Che deliberately exaggerated his words.
Hearing the word 'incomplete,' Bai Weiwei immediately pouted: "Ah... but I really like your eyes. Why don't you reconsider? Don't worry, I definitely won't treat you unfairly!"
Bai Weiwei meant that she would replace Qin Che's eyes with a better pair, but Qin Che didn't see it that way.
He was horrified internally.
This damned woman! She's actually thinking of keeping me as a pet! She might even torture me!
No wonder most of the top ten on the Fierce God ranking list published by the Thriller World Investigation Bureau are Female Ghosts. With such vicious intentions, perhaps ten male Fierce Gods couldn't compare.
"Mmm—" Qin Che looked conflicted. "Let me think about it carefully."
Qin Che thought he could stall for time, but Bai Weiwei genuinely believed Qin Che was considering it and became delighted: "Really?"
"Favorability from Bai Weiwei +5, +5, +5... Current Favorability is Two Stars."
At this moment, the Man in Suit returned, and the two tacitly avoided discussing the matter further.
Qin Che hadn't eaten a meal with a girl much before, so the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
He simply opened the Relationship panel. At this point, the Favorability points he hadn't spent had reached 210. The highest Favorability surprisingly belonged to Mosiah, that masochist! Qin Che truly hadn't expected that.
He clicked on Relationship and found Bai Weiwei's information.
【Bai Weiwei:
Bai Weiwei, born with a silver spoon in her mouth... 】
【Current Favorability is insufficient. When Favorability reaches Five Stars, the complete version of Bai Weiwei's Character Information can be unlocked. 】
Qin Che was stunned.
How is this different from Mosiah?
Qin Che thought he remembered incorrectly, so he clicked on Mosiah's character panel. Mosiah's Favorability towards him had already reached Three Stars, and her Character Information was now unlocked.
However, Qin Che wasn't in the mood to look now; he was deeply shocked.
Unlocking the Character Information for a Top-tier Fierce Ghost like Mosiah only required reaching Three-star Favorability.
But Bai Weiwei required Five-star Favorability.
This meant Bai Weiwei was at least stronger than Mosiah.
One must know that Mosiah was already slightly stronger than an average Fierce God. To require even higher Favorability to unlock Bai Weiwei's information meant she was at least at the Fierce God level!
Qin Che's heart raced; his feelings were incredibly bitter.
What kind of existence had he provoked!
Suddenly, Bai Weiwei looked up, watching Qin Che suspiciously—she had heard his heartbeat; it was deep, heavy, and fast.
"Is this man... falling for me?"
Bai Weiwei looked at Qin Che staring intently at her, and her cheeks immediately felt hot, a blush appearing.
"What a bad man! Don't you know it's impolite to stare at a girl like that? Don't think you can look at me like that just because you're young!"
Women are such complicated creatures.
If you don't care about her, she doubts her own charm; but if you care too much, she becomes affected.
"Is there something on my face?" Bai Weiwei asked, pointing to her face.
"Ah, no, no!" Qin Che hastily averted his gaze.
Seeing this, Bai Weiwei secretly smiled in her heart.
"So cute!"
