After the first quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs, GSN069) was reported in 2019, four other sources have been identified as QPEs or its candidate. However, the physics behind QPEs is still unclear so far, though several models have been proposed. Pan et al. (2022) proposed an instability model for the accretion disk with magnetically driven outflows in the first QPEs GSN 069, which is able to reproduce both the light curve and the evolution of spectrum fairly well. In this work, we exploit this model to all the QPEs. We imporve the calculations of the spectrum of disk by introducing a hardening factor, which is caused by the deviation of opacity from the blackbody. We find that the light curves and evolution of the spectra of the four QPEs or candidate can all be well reproduced by our model calculations.
