Zhang Mengyao took a step back, still holding her hand. "Ye Ke, talk to that local boss and ask him to rent the store to me first. When I make a profit, I will definitely pay him back every penny."
Ye Ke was so angry that he laughed at her self-righteous look.
She touched her face. Did she look like a saint? Was she the one who rushed to help others when they were bullied?
Ye Ke asked, "What have I done wrong? Do you think I'm kind?"
Zhang Mengyao quickly waved her hands and explained, "No, Ye Ke, I really have no other choice. Please help me!"
Ye Ke was unmoved and just looked at her coldly. Okay, okay, now you are using moral blackmail again, right?
"My mom is really good at making pancakes. She started her stall ten years ago and makes a lot of money! Customers line up every day to buy from her!"
Zhang Mengyao stared into Ye Ke's eyes and said firmly, "Trust me! As long as you rent the store to me, my mother and I will definitely be able to make the business a success!"
Ye Ke sneered, "You're so powerful, but you still need my help? You can't afford to rent a shop, can't you? You can't even come up with this little money, and you dare to say your business is good? Are you planning to get something for nothing?"
Zhang Mengyao's face suddenly darkened and looked extremely ugly.
Ye Ke was about to sneer, she slowly said: "My father cheated on me. He used my grandmother's illness as an excuse to cheat a large sum of money from my mother.
When my mother found out, she filed for divorce. The man took all the money away from home while we were away."
Ye Ke was shocked. No, sister? Don't you know what our relationship is?
You're actually opening your heart to me?!
Zhang Mengyao seemed to have been suppressing her emotions for a long time, but now she completely opened up her desire to talk and continued talking regardless of anything.
"That man borrowed a large sum of money before he ran away. The creditors couldn't find him and came looking for my mom. I had no choice but to bring my mom to Ancheng."
"Ye Ke, we really have no money right now." Zhang Mengyao looked at Ye Ke pleadingly.
"I know what I did before was wrong. I really can't help it. I am obsessed with it. I am just jealous. Why can you buy the store so easily? I..."
Zhang Mengyao was about to kneel down when she said that, but Ye Ke quickly dodged and said, "Don't do that! I can still listen if you talk nicely, but if you try this, I'll just leave!"
Zhang Mengyao had no choice but to stand up straight and said weakly: "I know I was too extreme before, but I really have no other choice. We don't even have the capital to set up a small stall. My mother is now collecting garbage everywhere, and the vegetables we eat every day are picked up from the vegetable market. I..."
When talking about sad things, Zhang Mengyao burst into tears.
It is not easy to live in a safe city.
Her mother couldn't find a job and could only barely make ends meet every day.
Ye Ke felt a little headache. No matter how he looked at this scene, it seemed like he was bullying her.
"That's enough!" Ye Ke said impatiently, "Are your mother's pancakes really that delicious?"
Zhang Mengyao's eyes lit up when she heard that there seemed to be an opportunity, and she quickly said, "Really? I'll ask her to make one at home and bring it to you to try!"
The next day, Zhang Mengyao brought her mother to the commercial street. After finding Ye Ke in the store, she took out a pancake. Ye Ke was a little surprised when he saw it.
I've always heard Zhang Mengyao say "jianbing jianbing" and she thought it was "jianbing guozi" (a type of jianbing fruit). Unexpectedly, it's actually "caijianbing".
The weather is a bit cold, and the crust has cooled down completely. It is no longer crispy and tender, but you can still smell the distinct flavor of whole grains.
“This pie crust is quite rich in ingredients, isn’t it?”
Zhang's mother enthusiastically introduced: "Yes, it's a craft passed down from our ancestors. We use more than a dozen ingredients including peanuts, sesame seeds, corn, wheat, and soybeans!"
Ye Ke took a bite and found the filling was still warm. It was a carrot and cabbage filling, generous with ingredients, and had a sweet and refreshing taste. The whole pancake filling was fresh and fragrant. Zhang Mengyao was not exaggerating.
Ye Ke looked at Zhang Mengyao and said, "It's delicious. Let's go somewhere else to talk."
