Chapter 335
The customers were intrigued by the way Xie Dongsheng reacted to the dumpling . All of them lost their mood for eating and kept having the same question go through their mind: "That dumpling looked really beautiful and smelled really fragrant . I wonder how it tasted…"
When they saw Xie Dongsheng leave, everyone cast their eyes on his son, Xie Zhen .
The man with the flowery shirt commented, "Little Xie, it was my fault just now . Can you let me have a taste of that dumpling?"
Xie Zhen was taken back . He was not around previously, but he happened to see Xie Dongsheng stuff the dumplings into the freezer when he entered . He had no idea what had happened prior to that . Furthermore, everyone in front of him was a regular . He thought nothing of a single dumpling . Besides, it was the Dragon Boat Festival today . Giving two dumplings was only right .
With this thought in mind, Xie Zhen took the dumplings out again and asked, "How many do you want?"
The man in the flowery shirt looked at the rest and asked, "Does anyone else want any?"
Everyone exchanged looks, but no one spoke a word . They were all very curious, but recently news of the poisonous dumplings had taken up all headlines . They really were a little afraid of consuming something that looked so shiny . All of them shook their heads .
The man in the flowery shirt said with a bitter smile, "You guys, if it's problematic, would Old Xie eat it? Forget it if you aren't eating it . I'll eat it . Little Xie, give me one . "
"Don't try to show off . " His wife secretly pinched him .
The man thought nothing of it and took the dumpling that Xie Zhen handed him . He unwrapped it and immediately, a light fragrance spread from within . Everyone subconsciously took a deep breath as that fragrance made all of them feel intoxicated . Meanwhile, Xie Zhen was a chef, and when he caught a whiff of the fragrance, he immediately turned spirited . He unwrapped a dumpling too and immediately ate it without waiting for anyone to say a thing . The moment he swallowed it, he seemed to fall into a trance as he practically tried to stuff the whole dumpling into his mouth in one go! He choked from eating too fast and ran out for some water .
When a woman saw this, she chuckled, "This Old Xie is seriously one of a kind . Doesn't he feed his son? Look at how hungry his son is . He wolfed down the dumpling and even choked on it . "
The moment she finished her sentence, she heard someone say beside her, "Old Hua, slow down! No one is snatching it from you! Slow down . Hey, why did you choke too? Quick, drink some water . "
When the woman heard that and turned around, she saw the man in the flowery shirt wolf down the dumpling but refuse to drink any water . He endured the discomfort until his face flushed red and only drank a mouthful of water after failing to endure it any longer . He then let out a deep breath and shouted, "Little Xie! Little Xie! Little Xie! I want all your remaining dumplings!"
"Old Hua, sit down . Have you gone mad? You nearly choked yourself to death . You still want more?" said his wife .
The man chuckled and did not say another word . The dumpling was just too delicious, so delicious that he nearly swallowed his tongue as well! Furthermore, he had seen it very clearly that there were not many dumplings . There were about seven and if the others were to realize, would there be any left for him? Therefore, he did not say another word . He put his feet on the ground and quickly wore his shoes to seek out Xie Zhen .
The others were not stupid either . The man's reaction clearly indicated that the dumplings were suspicious! Hence, all of them followed .
Xie Zhen finally managed to drink a mouthful of water to wash down the dumpling before he heaved a sigh of relief . But at that moment, he heard the man in the flowery shirt shout about buying all the dumplings! He obviously was disagreeable towards it . He didn't have enough to eat, so how could he give them to him? He was already feeling the pinch for giving out one earlier! He finally understood why his father had stuffed the dumplings into the freezer . His father had been planning on having them all for himself!
