126: Chapter 126 This was made with powder. I admit my mistake, but I won't change it!

"It's so cheap, is this just water mixed with milk tea powder and fruit syrup?"

The person's voice was loud, his tone aggressive, laced with mockery and sarcasm.

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene went quiet!

The onlookers who had just been caught up in the excitement calmed down significantly, realizing that the statement actually made a lot of sense.

Suddenly, they didn't feel as eager to drink the milk tea anymore.

Qian Yunfa's face twitched a couple of times. He suddenly felt as uncomfortable as if his whole body were being pricked by pig bristles. He looked up at the sun, wondering if he should just faint right now.

To avoid an even more embarrassing scene later?

A few months ago, Dudu Tea had just upgraded its products, adding tea broth and milk to the milk tea, elevating its quality.

Was it now going to be ruthlessly smashed to the ground again?

An Ke watched Qin Xun quietly, recalling the day she questioned if it would taste like artificial flavoring, and Qin Xun had answered in such a brazen and roguish way.

He said, "It's a few dollars worth of stuff. If you don't taste artificial flavoring, do you expect to taste a whole cow?"

Now, being exposed in front of everyone, she wondered how he would handle it.

Xia Ning stood behind the milk tea shop counter, looking at Qin Xun's back. Her expression remained cold, but there was a faint trace of worry in her eyes.

She immediately realized that the person was there to cause trouble.

She glanced at the various powders and fruit syrups neatly stacked under the counter and felt as if someone had struck her fatal weakness.

Qin Xun must feel as uncomfortable as if he were being roasted over a fire right now, right?

Qin Xun followed the sound and discovered that it had indeed come from the middle of that group of people.

He had long noticed that group, observing them whispering to each other, and their expressions were far from friendly.

It was obvious at a glance that they were here to pick a fight!

He just didn't know if they were competitors from another milk tea shop or rivals in the marketing world.

Or perhaps they were just "cuckolds" whose wives liked watching his videos of selling apples while shirtless, and they had come to cause trouble out of anger, thinking he had cuckolded them.

Qin Xun wore a smile, completely unaffected. His gaze slowly swept over the crowd, finally landing on the faces of that group.

Holding the microphone, he looked at them and said loudly with a smile, "Hey! Friend!"

"For a 2-dollar ice cream cone and 4-dollar lemonade, if you aren't eating powder and fruit syrup mixtures, do you expect to taste a whole cow?"

The man was startled, his pupils constricted, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He was panicked!

He was panicked!

Qin Xun was panicked!

He was actually self-destructing at the opening ceremony!

You're finished!

He thought Qin Xun would spout some empty official jargon, play tai chi, and then laugh it off to fool everyone.

Unexpectedly, this kid actually admitted it in public!

Mixed with powder, diluted with fruit syrup!

This was stabbing a knife right into the heart of Dudu Tea!

An Ke was stunned!

She had heard this answer once before, but at that time, there were only three people: Qin Xun, Xia Ning, and her.

But now...

She turned her head to look at the shocked onlookers all around.

She saw some people shaking their heads and leaving the crowd, seemingly having lost interest in Dudu Tea.

She turned back to look at Qin Xun's smiling face and sighed inwardly. Is this the kind of thing you can say in front of everyone?

People always praise me for being able to keep a smile on my face in any situation.

Sigh—not today, I'm tired!

Hearing Qin Xun's answer, Qian Yunfa felt a bit dizzy. His vision went black, his body went limp, and he wanted to take the opportunity to faint.

Firstly, he could leave this place and avoid dying of shame.

Secondly, he could let Chairman Xia know that he had tried his best and had even collapsed from exhaustion at work.

What a big, capital "miserable"!

His body slowly tipped over, but suddenly he felt a strong hand on his waist and another on his arm.

He turned to look.

He saw Sun Hua looking at him with a serious expression, expressing his loyalty.

"Mr. Qian, let me support you!"

"Don't worry, with me here, I won't let you fall!"

"Dudu Tea cannot be without you!"

Qian Yunfa stared blankly at Sun Hua, cursing in his heart.

Fuck you!

Can't you read the room before trying to suck up to me?

Do I need you to support me right now?

I want to faint right now!

Dudu Tea is about to be finished, why do you care if I'm here or not?!

Xia Ning was taken aback. She looked at Qin Xun's back, then glanced at the swarming crowd outside, all of whom were staring fixedly at Qin Xun.

Suddenly, she had an illusion.

Qin Xun had become a warrior holding the pass alone, while she was just a trembling little girl behind him.

She was just about to leave the counter and walk over to Qin Xun to give him some encouragement, but suddenly she heard Qin Xun speak.

"I understand everyone's feelings, and I also know that using powder and fruit syrup to mix milk tea is not a high-end method."

Qin Xun looked at the crowd and suddenly smiled.

"I admit the mistake, but I won't change it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion broke out below!

Qin Xun didn't give this resentment a chance to ferment. He raised his volume, interrupting their discussion and capturing everyone's attention.

"Is Dudu Tea selling milk tea?"

Everyone was confused.

"Huh?"

Qin Xun looked up, glanced at the bright sun in the sky, his eyes unfocused, as if recalling some youthful years.

He knew that the most effective way for a brand to spread is by telling stories, and having been trained under the high pressure of his mother's feather duster since he was a child, he had become very good at making up stories.

He lowered his head, his gaze sweeping over the crowd gently, and his voice became slightly deeper as he said:

"Let me reintroduce myself!"

"Hello everyone, my name is Qin Xun."

"My family was extremely poor. Since I was little, my mother told me that children of the poor take on family responsibilities early."

His voice was somewhat sorrowful, and the emotional impact was strong. Immediately, the surrounding crowd went quiet.

Xia Ning: ???

This again?

She had already heard this spiel from Qin Xun three times!

Qin Xun saw that everyone was looking at him, with some even showing sympathy in their eyes. His voice was soft and slow as he continued.

"later on!"

"I went to school and left home."

"Once, I was shopping with a very quiet female classmate and we went into a milk tea shop."

"As it turned out... two cups of milk tea cost 32 yuan!"

"32 yuan!"

"In the end... she treated me!"

"But that day, I wasn't very happy."

He didn't continue, tilted his head back slightly, blinked his eyes to hold back the tears, took a few deep breaths, and said with a slight choke in his voice.

"I thought that one day I would be able to treat her back."

"But... I never had the chance to treat her back again."

Hearing this, the crowd felt as if their hearts had been pricked by a needle. Even if they were foolish, they could roughly guess the story.

A poor boy goes to a big city to study and meets a quiet girl. The two fall for each other. Unfortunately, in the end, the girl leaves before the boy achieves fame and success. How tragic and beautiful!

At this moment, Qin Xun looked up at the sky, his voice grew a little louder, and he said very affectionately.

"On the day she left me... blue rain fell before my eyes."
