Deng Yin didn't stay long, only three days.

In the past three days, Gou Dan has become a different person. He has become much quieter and is not as close to Gao Ruizhe as before.

After being ignored by Gou Dan for the third time, Gao Ruizhe analyzed to Fei Fei with a serious expression: "I think Gou Dan must have fallen for Deng Yin."

Although Gao Ruizhe has mental issues, he never speaks carelessly. Feifei asked him, "Why?"

"Haven't you noticed that he's been deliberately keeping his distance from me lately? There are usually only two reasons for this sudden change. Either the other person has wronged you, or the other person is planning to do something to wrong you."

Gao Ruizhe, like a detective, analyzed logically and with evidence: "I haven't known him for very long, he doesn't know me at all, so he couldn't possibly do anything to betray me. So it can only be the latter."

“Everyone has seen how I’ve treated Deng Yin these past few days, and he definitely knows I like her. I’ve thought about it carefully, and Gou Dan’s change of heart happened the day after Deng Yin left. Before, when we were together all the time, it didn’t seem like much, but now that we’re suddenly separated, he suddenly realized that his attitude towards her was different.”

"On one side is the woman I love, and on the other is the brother I used to sleep on the floor with when we got drunk. It seems he has already made his choice, which is why he is deliberately distancing himself from me like this now!"

Gao Ruizhe became more and more agitated as he spoke, feeling an unprecedented sense of betrayal.

This is the first time that his best friend has fallen for the same person.

This may be because he is only close to Feifei, and Feifei has never liked anyone.

"You damn bastard!" Gao Ruizhe slapped his thigh and said viciously, "I took your brother, and you and I have fallen for the same person! From now on, I'm never cooking for you again!"

Gao Ruizhe kept his word. After preparing dinner, he didn't call Gou Dan to eat. Instead, he ate with Fei Fei in the house.

Gou Dan didn't see Gao Ruizhe cook, and he didn't hear Gao Ruizhe call him for dinner even after dark. Gou Dan assumed that Gao Ruizhe didn't want to cook, so he simply stir-fried two dishes himself.

The ice that Deng Yin left behind before she left had long since melted, but she left the kite behind.

Before she left, she said that we could eat and stay in her room, but we could only sleep on the floor.

Gou Dan put the vegetables in Deng Yin's room, and then knocked on Gao Ruizhe's door.

"I've cooked dinner."

"We're not eating!" Gao Ruizhe said angrily.

Dog Egg didn't think much of it, assuming that the two of them weren't hungry and that one of them finished the two dishes.

It tastes awful... but we can't waste it.

It's hot, and it's even hotter when the two of them squeeze into one bed. Gao Ruizhe has been sleeping on the floor for the past few days.

It's cool.

Feifei kicked the person on the ground and said, "Are you mistaken? I don't sense that he's deliberately distancing himself from you."

More than Gou Dan's estrangement, Gao Ruizhe couldn't accept Fei Fei's disbelief in him.

"That only shows that you're too oblivious, not that he didn't do it. Only those who have experienced it firsthand understand this kind of thing. His attitude towards me now is like heaven and earth compared to before."

Gao Ruizhe has always been a meticulous person; he can immediately detect if the other party's attitude is slightly off.

Otherwise, given his intelligence, it would be impossible for him to have been number one in sales for three consecutive months.

After partnering with Feifei, they split the earnings, and he was able to occasionally reach number one.

But sometimes being too sensitive isn't necessarily a good thing. For example, right now, Gou Dan isn't as warm towards him as before, but that's definitely not a sign of estrangement.

He just... hasn't thought some things through yet...

......

Deng Yin didn't go straight home, but went to the shop first.

The cakes probably hadn't sold out yet, so she went to check on how the employees were doing.

Deng Yin's impression of her was still that of her helping out at the store, but little did she know that during the days she was away, the watermelons and cakes were sold out in less than half an hour every day.

The shop allows dine-in service, and some people buy cakes specifically for the three of them. After buying the cakes, they will use the excuse of dining in to secretly watch the three of them.

The shop was rather small; Deng Yin hadn't set up many tables and chairs, so it couldn't accommodate too many people dining in.

Now, scalpers have expanded their business not only to purchasing on behalf of others, but also to reserving seats.

Now, anyone with a seat is either a scalper who waits at the door before it opens to reserve a seat, or a customer who pays a scalper to buy a seat.

Originally, the faster we sold out, the sooner we could leave work. Now, not only do we have to sell out all the food, but we also have to wait for the customers upstairs to finish eating.

Some clients who didn't have much money still wanted to see the three of them. The eight of them pooled their money to buy a watermelon, and each person got less than two slices, but those two slices were enough for them to eat for a day.

It wasn't until closing time that those customers finished their watermelons in just a few bites.

When Deng led him in, he saw a man buying seats from a scalper.

"A cake costs only one gold coin, but this seat is worth 50 silver coins."

"Who do you think you are? Why are you telling me what to do? They have money, so they can buy seats. What right do you, a poor wretch, have to point fingers?"

When Deng Yin started this business of buying seats, she hadn't been to the store for a long time, so it was normal that most of the scalpers didn't recognize her.

“This shop is mine, so who do you think I am?” Deng Yin disliked the kind of scenario where someone had to endure a lot of humiliation before revealing their identity to slap the other person in the face.

Whether getting slapped in the face is really satisfying is unknown, but the humiliation you suffer is real.

The scalper had never met Deng Yin, but he had heard that the shop was run by a woman.

The woman before him possessed an extraordinary air about her. Although she wasn't wearing anything expensive, her face made the clothes appear luxurious.

"Oh, it's you! I've always heard you're incredibly beautiful, but I thought they were exaggerating. Now that I've seen you in person, I know they were right. I have no self-control when it comes to talking, I deserve a beating." Huang Niu slapped his mouth with his hand, using some force, so that everyone around could hear it clearly.

Deng Yin wasn't buying it. Ignoring the scalpers, she shouted to the people downstairs, "Starting tomorrow, each person can only buy one cake at most. The upstairs area is closed off, and dine-in service will no longer be available."

"No!" The scalper was getting anxious; this was cutting off his livelihood! "I'll kneel down and kowtow to you, I'll do anything you ask if you'll change your mind!"

He earned more money in the past few days than he used to earn in three months of work, so he quit his job. If Deng Yin doesn't allow him to eat on the second floor, how will he survive?

Deng Yin raised his hand to stop the scalper's actions and said, "What I'm doing has nothing to do with you. You know that our shop has been able to get to where it is today entirely because of divine favor. Someone personally came to buy a cake."

The people queuing downstairs stopped buying and quietly listened to Deng Yin speak.

“Yesterday, a fairy appeared to me in a dream, saying that she sent someone to buy a cake two days ago, but they came for three days in a row and still couldn’t buy one. Yesterday, the fairy found out that this was because someone was reselling the cake, and she was very angry.”

"As we all know, gods are full of love and treat all people equally. It is only natural that the gods are angry about what has happened."

"That's why I decided to close the second floor and limit each person to one cake at most. Otherwise, why wouldn't I do a business that's clearly making money?"
