Divorced and Determined: The CEO's Ex-Wife Fights for Love-Chapter 108

Chapter 108 There’s No Guidance Here—Only Screams and Cries!

Is it really that delicious?

Skeptical passersby hesitantly approached Lu Qin’s stall to buy food.

To the loyal regulars, these slow-moving newcomers were unbelievably lucky. On a normal day, when Lu Qin sold fried noodles or twice-cooked pork, the wait time would stretch just enough for the overwhelming wave of customers from the group chat to arrive. By then, these clueless newcomers wouldn’t even catch a whiff of the food, let alone get their hands on it.

Some newcomers earned a few dozen yuan by acting as proxies for others. The regulars sneered, thinking, If only they knew that Lu Qin’s food is a rare delicacy, worth every penny and then some. You can’t even buy it with money most of the time.

Many who managed to buy something eagerly opened their boxes.

“Mama mia, what is this divine crystal cake? The exquisite taste dances on my tongue, melting my taste buds!”

One bite of a shuijing xiajiao (crystal shrimp dumpling) nearly made someone bite their tongue.

Inserting a straw into the ludou sha (mung bean smoothie), they took a sip.

“Ahhh! For 3.5 yuan a cup, it beats a 20-yuan milk tea any day!”

Finally, they understood why people were paying others to buy the food—it simply wasn’t enough!

Some onlookers hesitated and asked those who had already eaten.

“How is it? Is it good?”

“It’s so good, I nearly swallowed my tongue with this crystal cake!”

“I eat late-night snacks daily, and I’ve tried everything. But this stall’s crystal cake and shuijing xiajiao are the best—unbeatable! And the ludou sha? It’s the king of all drinks!”

“I swear, I’ll come here every day. Even Jesus couldn’t stop me!”

Those who had tasted the food looked ecstatic, their eyes shining. It seemed like these small delicacies had cured their lifelong ailments, leaving them rejuvenated.

“This is a hidden gem! Hurry and buy!”

“Quickly! Only a third of the food is left. The earlier crowd took most of it!”

As a group of passersby finally moved toward the stall, another wave of customers suddenly appeared from all directions.

“Phew! Finally made it. I wouldn’t sleep tonight without eating something from Lu Qin’s stall!”

“Damn it, I overslept for a nap! Luckily, I’m still in time!”

“I ran so hard my slippers are at my calves! This is more intense than running the 1,000-meter during college entrance exams!”

“I drove here right after work and even ran a red light!”

These regulars were cursing under their breath, but their actions were swift. They dashed toward the stall, lined up neatly, and relied on a ‘first come, first served’ strategy.

The hesitant onlookers froze for a moment. In the blink of an eye, a line of 20 or 30 people had formed, with more joining. Those who realized too late scrambled to join the queue, while others, slower to react, found themselves at the end of the line. They craned their necks anxiously, watching the boxes of food on the table dwindle at an alarming rate.

Their hearts sank.

Will there be anything left when it’s my turn?

Meanwhile, those who managed to buy food wasted no time. They opened their boxes and devoured the contents ravenously, as if they hadn’t eaten in days. Their reactions left no doubt—this food was extraordinary.

The passersby who had earned a few yuan as proxies felt they had made a terrible mistake. For the sake of a small profit, they had missed out on the opportunity to taste these legendary delicacies. Swallowing their disappointment, they wandered off to find other food in the night market.

One particularly crafty individual even bought a pair of sunglasses from a nearby store and tried to queue again. When it was his turn, Lu Qin handed him a box of crystal cake. The man was about to pay when a soft, sweet voice interrupted him.

“Big brother, didn’t you already buy something earlier? You look familiar!”

Startled, the man stammered, “N-no, this is my first time. Little lady, you must be mistaken.”

“I remember you because of that mole. None of the other customers have it,” Lu Xiyao said confidently.

Lu Qin glanced at the man calmly and said, “If you’ve already purchased, please give others a chance. You can come back tomorrow.”

The man tried to argue, but the other customers weren’t having it.

“Look at you! Obviously, you’ve been here before. Get lost!”

“Don’t make me call the police!”

“Check your payment history if you dare!”

Faced with the threat of revealing his payment records, the man fled, muttering to himself. “Thank goodness for these sunglasses. My face wasn’t exposed. Never doing this again. Damn!”

Ten minutes later, the table was empty, save for a QR code sign and a pack of tissues.

Lu Qin’s tissues were free, but customers rarely used them.

Why?

Because they didn’t want to waste even the smallest bit of flavor! They licked the sauce clean off their lips—wasting it would be a crime.

The free mints were also wildly popular. Lu Qin placed them in a fruit dish each time, and they were always gone by the end of the night.

It wasn’t just that they were free. Even the mints were extraordinary—refreshing in a way that made brushing your teeth three times seem dull. After eating, customers could pop one in their mouths and kiss their partners confidently.

Customers even helped clean up, folding the table and storing it in Lu Qin’s car.

Some joked, “Lu Qin, if you sell more food daily, you’ll upgrade to a Bentley in three months!”

Meanwhile, Lu Qin’s group chat gained new members, swelling to over 800. Some weren’t even local, having joined via online referrals.

The regulars weren’t thrilled.

[Jiangcheng Wu Yanzu: Damn, more newcomers! The competition is insane. Will I even get twice-cooked pork tomorrow?].

[Too Handsome to Survive: Tomorrow’s going to be a bloodbath!].

[Die Without crystal cake: I’ll try the morning stall tomorrow—less pressure than afternoon and evening!].

[Want to Be Xiyao’s Stepmom: Morning is still crowded! I only got a mung bean smoothie last time!].

[Blossoming Wealth: Just joined Lu Qin’s fan group—so many people! His food is amazing!].

A newcomer tried to introduce themselves politely.

[Yogurt-Forgot-Memories: Hello, everyone! Please take care of me!].

The response came swiftly.

[Lu Qin’s Leg Ornament: Awooo awooo awooo…].

[Peng Yuyan Fan from Jiangcheng: @Yogurt-Forgot-Memories, lining up here is brutal. There’s no guidance—only screams and cries. Screams are for me, ‘Wow, so handsome!’ Cries are for you, ‘Ah, I didn’t get anything!’].

[Yogurt-Forgot-Memories: …].
