So, Qin Huai really wanted to achieve a small breakthrough in so aspect before August 20th.
Of course, it's already August 20th now, and there hasn't been a breakthrough.
The yeast hasn't upgraded to Master Level, all side quests have shown no progress, and the goodwill with An Youyou is just the sa—anyway, no new side quests have erged.
But it seems there is a bit of a breakthrough anyway.
Qin Huai is very aware that he is making progress every day. He entrusted An Youyou's teaching to Zhao Cheng'an these days so that he could focus on practicing dumplings wholeheartedly, but he and An Youyou still have interactions.
The goodwill ter is also ticking upwards.
As Qin Huai was lost in his thoughts, Zhao Cheng'an patted Qin Huai to signal that it was ti to board the plane.
"What are you thinking? I thought you looked a bit worried just now," Zhao Cheng'an asked.
"It's nothing. I just feel that today is such an important day, sothing special should happen. But it seems like today is quite plain, so I'm a bit disappointed."
Just as Qin Huai finished speaking, his phone rang.
It was a call from Gong Liang.
Qin Huai was a bit stunned to see the caller ID; he hadn't been in touch with Gong Liang for a while, not because the tasks with Gong Liang had reached a certain point, nor because Master Qin had forgotten Boss Gong who was so generous with red envelopes.
It's mainly due to lack of opportunity.
Gong Liang spends most of his ti in Gusu, his family, friends, social relations, and career are all there. He seldom leaves Gusu except when business needs require him to travel.
When Qin Huai was in Gusu, Gong Liang lived next door to him. He was frequently seen at Huang's Kitchen, where Qin Huai could see him every day, and they always had sothing to talk about.
To be precise, in the relationship and interaction between Qin Huai and Gong Liang, Gong Liang has always been the more active and initiative-taking party.
When Qin Huai is not in Gusu, his exchanges with Gong Liang are limited to mutual likes on social dia, occasional comnts, and inquiries about recomndations for good tutors.
It was truly surprising for Gong Liang to suddenly call Qin Huai.
"Hello, Mr. Gong." Qin Huai answered the phone.
"Master Qin, haven't boarded the plane yet? I was just with Zheng Da and heard from him that you're flying back to Huishan City today."
"Yes, I'm just about to board."
"Oh, that's such a coincidence. Our Treasure Bead is heading to Shan City to participate in so design competition, and my wife and I are free, so we thought about accompanying her. We're on the afternoon flight today. I originally thought you'd stay in Hangzhou for a while longer, so I wasn't planning to tell you. Just wanted to surprise you by checking in at your Yunzhong Restaurant and snapping a photo for social dia."
"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, Master Qin, you're heading back to Huishan City too. My daughter's competition might last for more than a month, so I rented a place temporarily in Yunzhong District. I wonder if you have ti tonight? If you do, I'd love to treat you to dinner!"
Gong Liang's enthusiastic voice ca through from the other end of the line, leaving Qin Huai quite stunned.
He felt like he's been left stunned more frequently these days.
"Um… I might not have ti tonight; I've already arranged to dine with friends. I need to board now, let's talk after the flight lands."
"Mr. Gong, are you planning to stay in Shan City for over a month this ti?"
"Yes, accompanying Treasure Bead for the competition."
"Since you're about to board, I won't keep you. Let's chat later." Gong Liang hung up the phone.
Qin Huai looked at the inquisitive gaze of Zhao Cheng'an and paused for a mont. With mixed feelings, he said, "Now it's not plain anymore."
"It really feels like all spirits have gathered here now."
