Chapter 14 [014] The Falling Cherry Blossom Group, the team leader personally delivers cakes
Making his sister cry is a serious dereliction of duty for a brother. Linlin is not interested in the buns from the inner city, but the fact that her brother forgot to bring buns for her means that things have subtly changed.
Qin Jiandan put his hands on his sister's shoulders and apologized sincerely:
"Linlin, I haven't cared enough about you during this period. It's all my fault. I will reflect on it. Also, did the president convey any strange words to you through Tiger Maniac? Don't worry, your brother will not be taken away by others. I will always be your brother!"
The petite shoulders were held by strong hands. The familiar physical contact made Linlin feel a little relieved. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, pouting her lips and looking up.
"Then, will you still play skating with me in the future?"
"Of course! I can even turn you over until you fall asleep while sitting!"
Qin Jiandan's assurance did not seem to completely satisfy his sister, but at least she managed to get through the crisis without any major problems.
Strike while the iron is hot, Qin Jiandan took advantage of the height difference between the brother and sister and easily comforted them with the "head-patting move".
Linlin showed an expression of enjoyment like a cat when her brother patted her head, and Qin Jiandan also felt the silky smoothness of his sister's hair more intuitively.
Girls really like to be clean! But Linlin took a shower last night, which was unusual. Did she think I disliked her? Putting oil on anti-pollution clothes while eating buns is nothing. You used to take showers more frequently than I did!
In the garden, the quiet time of the brother and sister touching heads was suddenly interrupted. The new leader of the Falling Cherry Blossom Team, Miyamoto Koharu, appeared at the other end of the stone path with an ebony tray in her hand.
"Excuse me for disturbing you!"
Xiao Xia's naturally curly red hair in a ponytail was very eye-catching. Qin Jiandan felt that this hair color was of no benefit to a ninja's stealth.
The girl with a five-petal cherry blossom pattern on her ninja uniform gradually approached. Her face looked a little nervous and her smile was forced.
Qin Jiandan saw several plates of red and white snacks on the ebony tray. They were coated with a layer of gold under the sunlight, which made people quite appetizing.
"This is the 'Shingen Cake' made by the most famous pastry chef in the Luoying Group. This chef has a bad temper and is known as the 'Shingen Cake Immortal'. He only makes pastries once a month... I happened to catch it today, so I brought it over for the president and the young master to taste!"
Qin Jiandan did not ask the president if he had eaten first. The president was in seclusion, so Xiaoxia could not have seen him. He probably asked Hu Chi to send him to the training ground. And the master did not like sweets, so he either asked Doctor Li and Hu Chi to help clean up, or simply sent it to Linlin.
"Then it's really troublesome for you, the team leader, to deliver it personally..."
Qin Jiandan remembered what his master had said: "Power can never be taken back once it is given up," and he put on some airs of a young master in front of the female ninja.
"Eh? Is this the famous 'Shingen Mochi' from Sakura-dori Street? As the young master's sister, can I eat it too?"
Linlin put the watering can at her feet and wiped the corners of her eyes to avoid being seen crying by others.
"Of course!" Xiao Xia said with a smile, "I just asked Brother Hu Chi to give the Shingen Cake to the president. The president only took a little and asked me to give the rest to the young master and Linlin to eat!"
Xiao Xia is a few years older than Linlin, but when she mentions the other's name, her words are always flattering.
"That's good! Hehe, it seems that being the young master's sister does have many advantages!"
Linlin reached out and took a Shingen mochi from the plate. It was a small rice cake covered with soybean powder and topped with black honey sauce.
"Hmmmmmm..."
"It's very sweet and fragrant! Brother, would you like to have one too?"
Qin Jiandan was usually wary of food offered by unfamiliar people. The "Steel Armor Breathing Technique" was good at resisting external attacks, but if someone poisoned the food, this skill would be useless.
Of course, after being poisoned, you can save your life by quickly seeking out Doctor Li for an antidote injection, or you can spend 2000 yuan to enter a regeneration chamber to remove the toxins, but it is best not to get poisoned.
Now my sister has eaten one, and it seems to be non-toxic. Although the brother who used his sister to test the poison is a scumbag, it is too late to stop it given the current situation. In addition, Qin Jiandan does not think that Miyamoto Xiaoxia has the courage to come to the headquarters alone to poison. There are many experts here, and it is impossible to get out alive after doing such a thing.
Thinking of this, Qin Jiandan also reached out and took a Shingen cake and stuffed it into his mouth, as a way of giving face to the Luoying Group.
As for the taste, it might be a bit too sweet... Overall, it's not as good as fried chicken.
"It's delicious. Thank you, Team Leader Miyamoto, for bringing it over."
Qin Jiandan praised the taste of the snacks against his conscience. It seems that sometimes leaders cannot tell the truth.
"Just call me Xiao Xia!" Xiao Xia's hands were shaking a little as she held the ebony tray. "Where should I put the rest?"
"Give it to me." Seeing that Xiaoxia's hands were numb from raising them, Linlin took it from him considerately.
"Linlin..." Seeing Linlin leaving with the tray, Qin Jiandan was a little worried about his sister's legs.
"Brother, don't worry about it. I won't get tired carrying such a light thing back to the monitoring room. I just can't run!"
"You've been out watering the flowers for so long, it's time to go back to the monitoring room and watch the video. And I asked Aunt He to keep an eye on it for me, so take these snacks back and let Aunt He have a taste!"
The Aunt He mentioned by Linlin is the aunt in charge of cleaning at the Night Dragon Club headquarters. She is a bit picky about hygiene, but she actually has a hard life and lost all her relatives in the turmoil. Linlin often shares good things with Aunt He.
After the bun-haired girl in kung fu clothes left, Xiao Xia, who was left with nothing, was left alone with the young master of the Yelong Society, and she felt even more nervous.
Xiao Xia recalled the secret conversation she and Feng Jianying had in the bedroom after the cadre meeting when they returned to the Falling Cherry Blossom Group - "Ahhh, so boring, when can I see the young lady fail in her attempt to seize power, lose everything, and shed tears of regret..."
The loli staff officer, Hotaru Kazama, who had only eaten a little food for lunch, uttered these outrageous words as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Nonsense! The Fallen Cherry Group's ambition to seize power in the Night Dragon Society will not fail! By then, I will sit cross-legged on a gold-studded chair and give orders to everyone!"
Kazama pushed up her glasses, which always slipped down the bridge of her nose, revealing her silver pupils that were cold but seemed to hide something - the same color as her silver hair.
"Miss, you being so high-profile doesn't fit the profession of a ninja, does it?"
"I told you before that being a ninja is not a profession but a hobby!"
Fengjian Ying looked at the wall clock and estimated the time when Qin Jiandan would return to the headquarters.
"It's almost done. Miss, take these Shingen cakes to the Night Dragon Society headquarters and tell them that this is a rare opportunity. Let the president and the young master have a taste of it. You can also try it to get closer to them and test their opinions."
"Eh? So what's under the curtain is Shingen Mochi? I was wondering why it smells so good...ah!"
Xiao Xia reached out to take one to eat, but was hit on the back of her hand by Feng Jian, which was quite painful.
"It's not for you. That 'Shingen Mochi Immortal' said today was not the day for him to make snacks. I threatened to seal him in a cement barrel and throw him into the canal. Then he said with a look of enlightenment: Sure enough, making snacks for people who look forward to it is the happiest thing in life!"
"You won't let me eat it, and you want me to give it to others..." Xiao Xia pouted, making her look younger than her actual age. "As the team leader, I personally delivered the snacks. I don't look like the future wife of the young master at all. Instead, I look like a maid, okay!"
"It's not certain whether you can become the young master's wife."
"Eh?"
Next, Fengjian shared the information she had obtained with the young lady, including that Qin Jiandan and Sheriff Mu Yue became nominally husband and wife due to a data error, and that the two had agreed to go to the inner city to go through the divorce procedures.
"Why, why is this happening?" Xiao Xia felt dizzy as if she had suffered a great blow, "You already have me and yet..."
Feng Jian: "I am not sure of every word that the young master and the sheriff talked about, but this is the general situation. Although the young master and the sheriff agreed to get a divorce, they have a strong sense of CP and may start dating each other. Miss, you have to hurry up."
"Hold on tight?" Xiao Xia just wanted to eat a Shingen Mochi to comfort her depressed mood. "How do I hold on tight?"
Fengjian: "You need to be more proactive, so that you and the young master, and the young master and the Falling Cherry Blossom Group can be more firmly bound together, even at the expense of the interests of other groups in the guild."
With the clear suggestion, Xiao Xia's face warmed up a little.
"I didn't consider the interests of other groups... I think I understand. I will deliver Shingen Mochi right now!"
Kazama grabbed Koxia's wrist to stop her from standing up immediately.
"Be forewarned, young lady, you may not be the young master's type."
"How is that possible! The young master proposed to me last night!"
Fengjian suddenly raised his other hand, and the fingertips made sudden contact. The sensitive Xiaoxia was immediately frightened and stepped back, crossing her hands to protect her upper body.
"Look, young lady, you are not very plump, just a little bit better than the young master's sister. According to my information, this is completely contrary to the young master's hobbies. You are born with deficiencies and your future is bumpy."
"Nonsense! How dare a loli like you with a front steel plate be so arrogant! You should be the one to be leveled!"
Xiao Xia touched him back angrily.
Feng Jian still had no expression on his face: "I'm not a loli, I just look like a loli. The sheriff is currently the most suitable candidate for the young master's XP. If you don't try to eliminate her, you will lose."
"But, but the city police are not the same as us! Aren't there enough people in our group who have been arrested by the city police?"
"Her breasts are bigger than yours anyway."
"Damn it!" Xiao Xia was so angry that she started biting her thumb nail, "Young Master, you are so indecisive. You already have me... Let me go and deliver the Shingen Mochi!"
"You are absolutely not allowed to eat on the road, understand?"
After giving the final instructions, Kazama let go of the young lady's wrist and watched Koxia hurriedly carry the Shingen mochi out the door.
Kazama was the only one left in the bedroom. After a while, a smile appeared on the cold corner of the silver-haired loli's mouth.
"It's really interesting. How will Miss fail this time? It's a pity that I can't go to the scene to watch it..."
Tips: Readers with a stronger taste may imagine Linlin as a panda when she appears.
