Qin Xue filled and labeled two jars of each of the three types of wine before taking them out of the space and storing them. Then she went back into the space to seal the rest of the wine and put them under the peach tree.

Next time, she’ll just need to unseal the jars and pour the wine. After dealing with the wine, she filled the ground back up and picked a basketful of vegetables.

Pan-seared green chili pepper, tomato scrambled eggs, stir-fried greens, spicy sour cabbage, spicy sour potato shreds, braised eggplant, caramelized sweet potatoes; just thinking of these dishes made her mouth water.

One person couldn’t finish it all, so she’d make extra to invite them for dinner later.bender

She’d give the unneeded vegetables to Fang Hong and Yu Xiu, then catch a few fish to make fish head tofu soup and chopped chili fish head. She’d tell them she bought the fish when the time comes.

That’s the plan: first eat, then share the leftovers. She was truly so clever.

Qin Xue took out a full basket of vegetables and caught a few fish in a large basin to store in water. Mission accomplished.

Qin Xue let the dough rise for the steamed buns she’d have in the afternoon. After washing her face, she lay down on the bed for a nap, exhausted. She fell asleep soon after.

By the time Qin Xue woke up, it was already after 3 in the afternoon. She chopped and marinated the meat, washed and chopped the vegetables, then started kneading the dough and wrapping the steamed buns.

She got along well with Xie Jun and Xu Fangzhou now, so to satisfy her cravings, she decided to invite Fang Hong’s and Yu Xiu’s families for a simple meal.

With two big men in their families, they’d surely be able to eat a lot. She made a total of forty buns and twenty steamed rolls, each the size of a fist.

Qin Xue figured that they’d only be home around seven, and Mr. Xie and the others would get off work at seven thirty, so she started steaming the buns first.

Seeing the fish reminded her that she had no pickled vegetables; sour and spicy pickled fish would be so refreshing. Next time, she’d buy a big jar to make pickled vegetables.

As Chu Molin left his home, he noticed the impatient sound of the door closing behind him. He wondered how much she disliked him now.

She used to be so fond of him, constantly trying to catch his attention. Had everything changed?

Now he was being treated like something contagious, something she despised. Was it real, or was she playing hard to get? He’d find out later; for now, he had to focus on completing his work.

When he saw Li Dabao and the others downstairs, they went together to Mr. Xie’s office:

“Chief, we’ve returned from completing our mission.” Chu Molin and the others reported to Xie Jun.

“Good, good. How did the mission go? Were any of you injured?” Xie Jun looked at the young men in front of him.

Xie Jun was initially supposed to lead the mission, but due to a meeting at the police bureau, Chu Molin took over.

Chu Molin had the ability, otherwise Xie Jun wouldn’t have entrusted this complex mission to him.

“The rest of us are fine and uninjured, but we didn’t manage to capture the suspect,” Chu Molin said in a low voice.

“Was the item stolen?” Xie Jun asked, his face turning serious.

“No, we just got back and still have the items in our possession. The rest were destroyed by us.” Chu Molin was slightly injured but didn’t consider it a serious issue, so he didn’t go to the hospital and returned directly to the station.

“Alright, you guys go back and rest for now. We’ll talk about the other things after you’ve rested,” Xie Jun told them, noticing their exhausted faces and dark circles under their eyes.

“Yes, thank you, Chief.” They all saluted and thanked him.

“Oh, Chu Molin, stay behind. The rest of you, go rest.” Xie Jun remembered Qin Xue’s injury and knew he needed to talk to Chu Molin about it.

“Chief, is there anything else?” Chu Molin was originally planning to return to his office.

“Yes, I just wanted to tell you to come see me after work. There’s something I need to discuss with you. For now, go rest,” Xie Jun waved for Chu Molin to leave.

After Chu Molin left, Xie Jun rubbed his temple, thinking about how to identify what was in the items.

Instead of resting, Chu Molin returned to his office.

This time, the criminals were cunning and ruthless, trying to find any loopholes they could exploit.

They managed to escape, thanks to the criminals not just being part of their organization, but also hiring mercenaries.

This mission exposed many shortcomings in their own capabilities, so Chu Molin decided to draft a training plan to strengthen their skills..
