Scraping together just enough, the container was finally full.
He was about to enjoy so Fried Ice Cream.
"No, no, we should thank you," said Bai Yuanyuan with her cheeks puffed out from eating.
"Um... good, eat more. You’ve gotten skinnier." Even though she didn’t rember whether Bai Yuanyuan had actually lost weight or not. But saying this was definitely right.
As expected, once Su Yinhe said this, Bai Yuanyuan was moved to tears.
"Wahhh... Boss, you actually still rember , wahhhhh... You’re too kind," Bai Yuanyuan said, looking deeply touched, just short of throwing herself into her arms and bursting into tears.
Su Yinhe: "..."
Damn, feeling so guilty.
So guilty.
"It wasn’t like that..." She said it without thinking; don’t get so emotional.
Su Yinhe deflected for a while, and after they exchanged Crystal Cores and went inside to shop, she finally had so peace.
Sotis, being a store owner isn’t that easy after all.
Su Yinhe’s eyes lost their sparkle.
She wanted to be a salted fish.
An adorable salted fish.
A salted fish that doesn’t flip over.
Though a salted fish is a salted fish whether it flips over or not, flipping does require effort.
She, didn’t want to exert even a little bit of effort.
She wanted to be a salted fish that didn’t need to flip over.
But being a salted fish, it’s easy to get eaten.
She didn’t want to be a salted fish that got eaten.
Please let her be a salted fish covered in spines.
Su Yinhe brought her hands together in a fake prayer gesture.
Lin Murong saw it and asked,
"Galaxy, are you... turning to Buddhism?"
Su Yinhe: "..."
"No, not at all."
"Then what are you doing with that gesture?" Lin Murong imitated her exactly.
"Don’t you know?"
Su Yinhe glanced at him.
"Know... know what?" Lin Murong was confused.
There was nothing to know or not know.
What... does he an?
"It’s nothing, really nothing," Su Yinhe waved her hand dismissively.
She was just ssing around.
But now Lin Murong was even more determined to understand.
"So what is it? Tell ," Lin Murong pressed her for an answer.
"It’s really nothing, honestly," she had just made it up on the spot.
There wasn’t any aning to it.
But by now, Lin Murong didn’t believe her anymore.
"Are you hiding sothing from ?" Lin Murong looked at her suspiciously.
"No, nothing at all, go play," she needed a break.
She’d just handled so many people; she was exhausted.
With age, she got tired from just a little work.
"I don’t want to play, tell now," Lin Murong was persistent.
"Really, there’s nothing. Don’t make a fuss over nothing."
Lin Murong pointed at himself then at her, "? I’m making a fuss? Galaxy, who’s being unreasonable here – is this the right context for that word?"
Su Yinhe nodded affirmatively.
With her nod, Lin Murong was instantly infuriated.
Lin Murong was quick to anger.
He was just passing by, but now he didn’t want to leave; he insisted on pestering Su Yinhe for an answer.
But what answer could Su Yinhe give? She had just blurted sothing out, and regardless of how much Lin Murong pestered her, she didn’t know.
She couldn’t co up with anything on the spot; she wasn’t able to think up a lie.
Her brain had been gnawed by sothing; it wasn’t working right. Not so smart anymore.
Right now, she was an idiot.
Thus, when Xu Jiaoqin and the others ca out, they discovered that their beloved boss was looking utterly disheartened, being shaken by Lin Murong by the shoulder.
Su Yinhe was practically having an out-of-body experience at the mont.
"Let go of the boss! Lin Murong! How could you do this, actually bullying the boss?" Xu Jiaoqin and the others saw this, threw down their stuff, and directly rushed up to punish Lin Murong.
It wasn’t that Lin Murong couldn’t fight them off.
But he knew they ant no real harm, so he hesitated for a mont, and because of that hesitation, they quickly pinned him down.
Several people were holding down Lin Murong.
Lin Murong was dumbfounded.
"It’s not... damn, what did I do wrong this ti?" Lin Murong truly doubted his life.
He always thought of himself as a good person.
He hadn’t done anything wrong.
Why was he always the one getting hurt?
"Boss, we’re here to save you. Are you alright, boss?" Bai Yuanyuan looked at Su Yinhe with a face full of concern.
It was only then that Su Yinhe, who was elsewhere in mind, finally snapped back to reality.
"Huh?" Su Yinhe, just regaining her senses, couldn’t understand the situation at all.
Why was Lin Murong being held down by so many people?
"Galaxy, explain to them. Fuck, that hurts a bit. Could you be a little gentler?" Lin Murong was really speechless, he was just having a friendly chat with Galaxy, it had nothing to do with them.
Why did they have to rush over and pin him down?
"Um... let him go." They were pinning Lin Murong down with all their might, one even bursting with veins.
If Lin Murong weren’t an Advanced Superpower User, he’d probably have been pressed... passed out by now.
With so many people... it really couldn’t be called holding down, it was more like crushing.
"Boss, did he threaten you? Don’t be afraid, we’ll all stand by you," Bai Yuanyuan said with a face full of care.
Su Yinhe: "..."
Ah, really, there was nothing of the sort.
Did she give them the wrong impression?
"I’m fine, I really am. Let him go," she said since it seed to be her fault, and Lin Murong was quite innocent when you thought about it.
She had just tricked him, and now he was in such a plight, being crushed by so many people.
She felt kind of embarrassed.
Su Yinhe felt a little guilty.
"Alright, we’ll let you go for now." They were sowhat reluctant to release Lin Murong.
From their point of view, it looked like Lin Murong was bullying Su Yinhe.
And Su Yinhe was just this delicate being being bullied.
They knew that as the boss, Su Yinhe definitely was not weak. But Su Yinhe always appeared so feeble.
She rarely showed her fierce side, so they all thought of her as being quite delicate.
Lin Murong rubbed the parts of him that had been pressed, feeling very down on his luck.
Was he experiencing a streak of bad luck?
Between diarrhea and misunderstandings...
It had to be a streak of bad luck.
Maybe he should also offer prayers to so deity.
It didn’t take many days for Su Yinhe to notice that Lin Murong started conducting rituals, complete with offerings.
Doubting Su Yinhe, understanding Su Yinhe, becoming Su Yinhe, surpassing Su Yinhe.
Su Yinhe: "..."
That’s... pretty outrageous.
Lin Murong even made it look sowhat real, leaving Su Yinhe dumbfounded.
She watched, flabbergasted, as Lin Murong set up the offerings, then made various complex gestures, paid his respects in various ways, and finally, ate the offerings.
Su Yinhe: "..."
Alright, Lin Murong was still the sa Lin Murong.
So Murong, not changed one bit.
She thought he was genuinely going to pray to so deity.
But in the end...
One has to wonder which deity was so unlucky, barely having the offerings for a few minutes before they were eaten.
However, Lin Murong, a person who had survived the apocalypse for so long, shouldn’t really believe in deities.
This is what Su Yinhe thought, and she also asked him.
"Oh well, just a casual belief." Lin Murong just offered so casual prayers, if it ca to actual belief, certainly there wasn’t much of it.
