Chapter 68 That face and mouth possessed the same strength as a fist.

Before I could even react, a White Rabbit milk candy was shoved into my hand.

Xu Hongyan stared blankly at the milk candy in her hand, and couldn't help but purse her lips. The last time she ate it was on the day her sister got married, when her sister secretly gave it to her.

She had seen White Rabbit milk candy at the supply and marketing cooperative. It cost 5.6 yuan per pound, and there were only about a hundred pieces in total. Each piece cost 4 or 5 cents. If she dared to spend half a month's salary to buy candy, her mother would kick her out that very night and have her sister-in-law take over her job.

Xu Hongyan's smile became much more genuine, rather than her usual complaints; it wasn't that she was so greedy.

The only milk candy she had ever eaten was given to her by her sister. Her sister was the only person in the family who was good to her, but unfortunately, she married too far away and hadn't seen her sister for a long time. Even her current job was secretly transferred to her by her sister before she got married, and her sister repeatedly told her not to give the job to anyone, not even if she was beaten to death.

"Sister?" Bai Nuo tilted her head and looked at the waiter with curiosity and doubt.

What's wrong now? Why did someone get teary-eyed over just a piece of candy?

"It's okay, sis, it's okay. You go eat first, and come back to pick up your lunchbox when you leave, otherwise it will get cold faster."

He turned around and asked the kitchen staff to bring out a dish that Bai Nuo had just ordered, then turned back and handed it to Bai Nuo.

At lunchtime, state-run restaurants have a continuous supply of dishes, so there's no need to wait for orders before cooking, as that would be a waste of time.

In this day and age, everyone believes that time is power and time is money.

Bai Nuo smiled and nodded politely and obediently: "Okay, thank you, sister. I'll come and get it after I finish eating."
