“Yes, as long as there’s food.”
Cui Muzhi’s eyes widened and his ears turned even redder. “Who wants to feed you! Hmph!”
Lan Jingbai looked disappointed. “Can’t I?”
Cui Muzhi pretended to be reluctant, but he couldn’t hide the smile on his face. “Then finish this.”
“Okay.”
Cui Muzhi watched him eat one bite after another. “What should we name it?
The mango is yellow and refreshing.”
Lan Jingbai looked up. “Yellow crispy mountain.”
Cui Muzhi was stunned. “That’s too unpleasant sounding.”
Lan Jingbai said again, “Mango crispy mountain.”
Cui Muzhi sighed. “I’d better ask someone else.”
Lan Jingbai chuckled. His distinctive facial features were gentle and bright. Cui Muzhi’s heart skipped a beat, and two words immediately appeared in his mind. Summer lover.
“What?”
Lan Jingbai looked puzzled. Only then did Cui Muzhi react. He had just muttered it and his face instantly became ripe like tomatoes. He stammered, “It’s nothing. Hurry up and eat!”
After Lan Jingbai finished the entire bowl of crispy mountain, Cui Muzhi wanted to look for Qin Xiao to design a promotional sign. Lan Jingbai wanted to follow, so Cui Muzhi immediately shook his head. “No, you can’t go!”
Lan Jingbai did not ask further. “Alright, I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Cui Muzhi stole a glance at him and ran away guiltily.
When they arrived at Qin Xiao’s studio, everyone was busy.
Qin Xiao and Cui Muzhi had a good relationship. Everyone in the studio knew him, so they led him into Qin Xiao’s workspace.
The hot weather made Qin Xiao a little frustrated. He was dissatisfied after drawing a few blueprints.
Cui Muzhi walked closer and picked up his discarded blueprints. “Isn’t this good? Why did you throw it away?”
Qin Xiao said, “I keep feeling like something is missing.”
Cui Muzhi smiled and said, “You’re asking too much.”
“The drawings for all the students must be perfect.”
Cui Muzhi was extremely impressed. “Then if you don’t have time, can you find someone to design a new sign for me?”
Qin Xiao had just designed the packaging of a dessert box for him and even produced a series of souvenirs. He had already developed a new product so quickly. He couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of sign do you want? I’ll squeeze out some time to draw it for you and let someone else be in charge of docking with the workshop.”
Cui Muzhi smiled and said, “I’ve developed several fruit-flavored crispy mountains. I want to make a signboard on the wall and want a few good-looking posters.”
Qin Xiao was feeling hot. When he heard the word crispy mountain, he felt a chill run down his spine. “How did you make crispy mountain without ice?”
Most of the information among the 30 families of Qinghe was shared. The Qin family did not store ice, so the Cui family naturally did not either.
Cui Muzhi smiled and said, “The Great Empress just told me a way to make ice.”
Qin Xiao was immediately shocked. “It can actually be used to make ice?”
Cui Muzhi nodded.
Qin Xiao took a deep breath. The Great Empress was too good to Cui Muzhi.
If he had known long ago, he would have tried to build a relationship with Bai Wutong. Thinking of Chu Tianbao, who had never left Bai Wutong’s side, Qin Xiao felt that if time had gone back, he would not have been able to build a relationship with her.
The weather was very hot, and everyone was thinking of ways to make ice. Qin Xiao was envious, but he knew his limits and asked Cui Muzhi to teach him. “When are you selling it? I want to be the first to support you.”
Cui Muzhi smiled and said, “Hurry up and help me design it. Then I can quickly release the new products.”
Qin Xiao said, “Alright, I’ll draw it tonight. You can come back to check on it tomorrow.”
Cui Muzhi nodded. “I’ll also design two types of crispy mountain plates. Help me modify them.”
Cui Muzhi looked like he did not care about his studies. But he was also taught by many masters in different aspects. Any of his painting could beat an entire street. Qin Xiao said affirmatively, “Do you still need me to change it? You can even come to my place to be a master.”
Cui Muzhi laughed. “How can I be as outstanding as Brother Qin? I’m counting on you for my shop in the future.”
The two of them flattered each other. Cui Muzhi happily wrote down the words ‘summer lover’. When he returned home, he realized that Lan Jingbai’s face was covered in a terrifying rash.
Lan Jingbai had yet to notice when Cui Muzhi rushed over and held his face. “What’s going on?”
Madam Cui wanted to see what her son had been up to recently, but she bumped into this scene before she could enter the room.
The surging shock hit her chest. After calming down, she quickly retreated and gestured for the maidservants to remain silent as she fled.
Lan Jingbai saw Madam Cui leave in a hurry. His lowered eyelids were obscure as he shook his head at Cui Muzhi. “I’m fine.”
Cui Muzhi frowned. “You still say you’re fine? It’s never been like this. You’re not allergic to seafood either!” If it wasn’t seafood, then it might be caused by other reasons. “Come with me to see a doctor.”
Lan Jingbai said distractedly, “I should be fine after applying some ointment.”
“Do you know what ointment to apply? Come with me!”
Before Lan Jingbai could refuse, Cui Muzhi pulled him out of the door. Lan Jingbai quietly broke free from his hand and came to Gu Zhongxun’s consultation room.
Gu Zhongxun was about to finish work and eat with Wen Renhua when Cui Muzhi rushed in. Gu Zhongxun thought that it was something serious.
He only glanced at Lan Jingbai and said, “You’re allergic. Is it seafood?”
Cui Muzhi said for him, “He’s not allergic to seafood. Last time, we were roasting prawns by the sea.”
As Gu Zhongxun brought him medicine, he asked, “Then what food have you eaten recently? Or have you come into contact with anything?”
Cui Muzhi thought for a moment. “Will he be allergic to mangoes? I gave him somemangoes. He’s never eaten them before.”
Gu Zhongxun had never taken on a patient who was allergic to mangoes, but Wen Renhua had one. “That should be a mango allergic reaction. His symptoms are not too serious, but it’s better not to eat it in the future. If you eat too much, you will have blisters, a rotten face, and an acute death.”
Acute death!
Cui Muzhi was really frightened. “It’s all my fault for letting you eat mangoes.”
Lan Jingbai shook his head. “You don’t know either. It was all an accident.”
Wen Renhua looked at them meaningfully and reminded, “Don’t scratch if you feel itchy. Your skin will fester and become worse. You’ll be fine after applying medicine for three days.”
Cui Muzhi hurriedly thanked him. As soon as he received the medicine, he was about to apply it on Lan Jingbai.
Wen Renhua said to them, “Remember to help us close the door. We’ll leave first.”
Cui Muzhi nodded.
As soon as Wen Renhua and Gu Zhongxun went out, Cui Shiji appeared at the door.
His face was filled with anger. He greeted Wen Renhua and pushed the door open.
Seeing that Cui Muzhi was applying medicine for Lan Jingbai, he immediately scolded, “Get back with me!”
Startled, Cui Muzhi dropped the medicine. “What?”
Cui Shiji’s eyes widened in anger. “Hurry up and leave!”
Cui Muzhi did not know how he had provoked his father. He picked up the ointment and stuffed it into Lan Jingbai’s hand. He walked up to him obediently and looked back at Lan Jingbai. Cui Shize was even angrier.. “What are you looking at? Walk properly!”
