Chapter 40 Fan, the enthusiastic feeder, who says one thing but does another, and is a neighbor.
With a "ding," the cookies are done baking.

Fan Wujiu took out the biscuits, waited for them to cool down a bit, then picked one up and ate it. Instantly, the sweet taste filled his taste buds.

Fan Wujiu nodded, it seemed his cooking skills hadn't declined at all.

"Aren't my cookies tastier than the ones you buy outside?"

He gave a soft hum, but his philandering woman was destined never to taste such delicious cookies.

He had no intention of giving it to her.

"I was just bored and itching to show off my skills, so I did it for fun. I'm going to eat all these cookies in a bit."

……

Early in the morning, Xu Qingling was still asleep when she was awakened by a knock on the door.

Who is it?
Xu Qingling came downstairs in her slippers. She had just opened the door and hadn't even seen who was standing outside when something was handed to her.

Ok?
Xu Qingling took a look and saw that it was a light blue paper bag printed with many small flowers, about the size of A5, and it looked bulging, but she didn't know what was inside.

However, Xu Qingling has a keen sense of smell, and a sweet aroma wafted from the small opening of the bag.

It tastes like sweets!

Xu Qingling shuddered instantly and became more alert.

"Hello." A deep, resonant male voice rang out, and a face appeared from behind the bag.

With sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and rosy lips, her features were distinct and her lines were smooth. Her phoenix eyes were like an abyss, seemingly possessing endless attraction that made people unable to resist falling into them.

His face was rather cold and hard, and he always seemed indifferent.

But if you look closely, you can see a hint of tenderness and nervousness in his eyes.

Xu Qingling looked at the face in front of her and was momentarily dazed at first glance.

That face seems somewhat familiar.

It was as if they had met long ago, which made Xu Qingling, who usually disliked socializing, unconsciously feel a strange sense of goodwill and closeness.

And those eyes... I feel like I've seen them somewhere before.

"Have we met before?" Xu Qingling asked, thinking to herself.

Fan Wujiu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, I just moved here yesterday."

He was wearing a mask at the ghost market, so she shouldn't have been able to recognize him.

Xu Qingling thought about it carefully again, and after confirming that she had indeed never seen this person before, she nodded.

"Hello, my name is Fan Wujiu. I rented the house next door and just moved in yesterday. We'll be neighbors from now on."

"These are some cookies I made on a whim. I made a lot, so I thought I'd give you some. Now that we're neighbors, I hope we can help each other out if anything happens."

As he spoke, Fan Wujiu handed the bag of cookies to Xu Qingling.

Xu Qingling could smell that the aroma of the cookies had become even stronger.

Xu Qingling: ...

She was sure the cookies would be delicious, but...

Xu Qingling actually dislikes socializing and has no intention of looking out for her new neighbors, so...

"No, you should keep them for yourself." Since I don't plan to socialize much, I can't accept these cookies.

Fan Wujiu was stunned for a moment, then realized that Xu Qingling would refuse.

He was a little angry at being rejected by Xu Qingling so suddenly, but he didn't show it on his face.

He completely opened the paper bag, which had only a small opening, and handed it to Xu Qingling.

"It's really delicious, take a small piece and try it."

The moment the bag was opened, the sweet aroma became even stronger.

Xu Qingling, who has always loved sweets and had been talking about wanting to eat sweets last night, finally couldn't resist.

I reached out and grabbed a star-shaped cookie, put it in my mouth, and took a gentle bite. Instantly, a delicious sensation swept over my taste buds.

Xu Qingling's eyes suddenly lit up. Delicious!

When she chewed it again, she was stunned. The taste was not only delicious, but also very familiar, as if she had eaten it before.

Moreover, Xu Qingling thought that these were probably the best-tasting cookies she had ever eaten, the ones that best suited her taste.

After finishing the meal, Xu Qingling was still somewhat unsatisfied.

Her gaze involuntarily drifted to the bag of cookies...

Half a minute later...

Xu Qingling was already holding the bag of cookies in her arms. She stretched out a hand to Fan Wujiu and said, "Neighbor Fan, if we need anything in the future, we can look after each other. If we don't need anything, we can still help each other out." For example, sending each other cookies or something.

Fan Wujiu looked at that slender, fair hand and slowly took it in his hand. "Yes, we'll look after each other from now on. I can not only make cookies, but also cakes, ice cream, pizza..."

Xu Qingling: That's great! From now on, we'll be the best neighbors!
After greeting everyone, Xu Qingling carried the small bag of cookies back into the house, looking like a little hamster that had stored up plenty of food for the winter and was happily returning to its burrow.

She's strangely cute.

A smile unconsciously appeared on Fan Wujiu's face, one that he himself did not realize. He thought with some annoyance that he should not have eaten that cookie last night, so that Xu Qingling could have eaten one more.

He knew that no one would dislike the cookies made by Lord Black Impermanence himself.

This fickle little woman still fell for his little biscuits.

He only made a little something, like cookies, and this woman was so happy. If he made cakes, ice cream, egg tarts, and so on and gave them to her, wouldn't she be overjoyed?
However, he would never do such things again. As the dignified Lord Black Impermanence, he was very busy. A man's mind should naturally be focused on his career. He would rather catch more ghosts than spend time making sweets, especially for this fickle woman. Humph!

Thinking this, Fan Wujiu turned and left, went inside to pack his things, and prepared to go to work at the hospital.

On his way to the hospital, Fan Wujiu thought he might want to eat soup noodles tonight, but the ones outside would definitely not taste good, so he might as well cook them himself.

But once he starts cooking, he definitely makes more than one bowl.

If we accidentally make too much, wouldn't that be a waste? It's such delicious food, it would be a shame to throw it away.

Never mind, if I make too much noodle soup tonight, I'll just give a bowl to that woman; she's a neighbor after all.

Of course, it only comes from doing a lot of work. If you ask him, the mighty Black Impermanence, to do it all, there's no way he'd do it.

Xu Qingling had no idea that Fan Wujiu had so much inner turmoil. She carried the bag of cookies back home, eating them as she walked. By the time Sasha came from the Road to the Underworld, she had already eaten almost half of the bag.

Seeing Sasha's longing eyes, Xu Qingling felt a little reluctant, but still shared some cookies with Sasha.

While eating the cookies, Xu Qingling thought to herself, "The new neighbor, Fan, is such a kind person."

Everyone who gave her sweets was a good person!
When evening came and Xu Qingling received the bowl of soup noodles, brimming with flavor and emitting a rich aroma, from Fan Wujiu, she felt even more that he was a truly kind person.

Fan's neighbor said that he had made too much noodle soup and gave her the extra bowl.

Xu Qingling, who had been craving soup noodles since her neighbor Fan made them, readily accepted the offer.

Just ...

This noodle soup is delicious; it still feels familiar.

Xu Qingling finally understood where her idea that she had eaten even better soup noodles before came from when she ate Old Li's soup noodles last night.

It seems to be the same kind of soup noodles that taste like this.

It tastes much, much better than Old Li's noodle soup.

As Xu Qingling ate her soup noodles, she suddenly felt a soreness in her eyes for some reason.

I feel like crying?
Xu Qingling was somewhat puzzled and found it very strange.

But she, who was born without tears, ultimately did not cry...

After finishing the noodle soup, my last thought was that I hoped my neighbor, Fan, would cook more meals or desserts in the future, and that I would take good care of her.

Both the cookies and the noodle soup were absolutely delicious!!

Our neighbor Fan is a true home cook; he's skilled at everything from cooking to making desserts!
