Liu Lingqiu's eyes lit up at this, as he could already smell the unique aroma from the watermelon, an aroma that could enhance abilities.
The surrounding customers, catching the scent, also turned their heads, their eyes shining as they looked at the large watermelon.
Some customers looked at Luo Yunshi with anticipation. "Boss Luo, are you selling your big watermelon?"
"Yeah? I can spend extra points to buy it."
"I can buy it too." The crowd chimed in.
Luo Yunshi's heart surged with excitement upon hearing this, followed by a pang of regret that she hadn't thought of this method sooner.
She quickly smiled and said to everyone, "This watermelon is not for sale. But don't worry, we will have watermelons and other fruits for sale in the store tomorrow. Customers who want to buy can come tomorrow, but it will be a bit more expensive than fruits in a regular supermarket."
"Haha, that's great. It's normal for it to be more expensive! Supermarket fruits can't enhance abilities, this is different. Boss Luo, I'll definitely be here tomorrow."
"Me too."
...
Haha, another wave of points to earn! Luo Yunshi was brimming with excitement.
Then, she smiled at Liu Lingqiu. "This watermelon is a gift for you, a thank-you for teaching me how to use a gun."
Upon hearing this, Liu Lingqiu smiled. "Alright then! I'll accept it." With that, he directly put the watermelon into his spatial storage.
Seeing that he accepted the gift without hesitation, Luo Yunshi became even happier, looking at him with anticipation.
"Hehe, can you drive an armored vehicle and a tank?"
"You want to learn?" Liu Lingqiu looked at Luo Yunshi with surprise.
Luo Yunshi quickly nodded, smiling as she explained. "I want to learn. The more skills I have, the better!"
Liu Lingqiu nodded, remaining silent. It was unclear whether he believed her or not.
Seeing his silence, Luo Yunshi propped her chin on her hand, blinking her eyes. When he still didn't react, she coughed lightly. "Can't you? Or don't you want to teach? Give me a straight answer, please? I can pay for the tuition. How about it?"
Liu Lingqiu was amused by Luo Yunshi's pleading demeanor. He cleared his throat. "Okay, I'll teach you, but..."
"But what?" Luo Yunshi asked nervously.
Liu Lingqiu paused for a moment, then said slowly, "I'd like to eat braised fish, is that okay?"
"Pfft..." Luo Yunshi couldn't help but burst into laughter. "I thought it was something big. Okay, no problem. I'll treat you tomorrow, and there's also a new store opening tomorrow! If you can teach me to learn it today, I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat tomorrow."
"Haha, alright! It's a deal then!" Liu Lingqiu said happily.
"Mhm, don't worry!" Luo Yunshi patted her chest and guaranteed, "I'll make sure you eat your fill tomorrow, I guarantee your satisfaction."
"Good! Then I'll teach you later. But do you have an armored vehicle and a tank?"
"Haha! Yes, spoils of war from yesterday." Luo Yunshi began to recount what had happened yesterday to Liu Lingqiu.
Suddenly, the wind chime at the door jingled.
About ten more people entered from outside.
Luo Yunshi turned her head and saw that it was Zhou Chuye and his entourage.
It turned out that the day before, after seeing Luo Yunshi, Zhou Chuye had felt that he liked this girl and decided to stay nearby with the intention of pursuing her.
After eating the boxed meals and discovering their benefits, his resolve to stay nearby temporarily was further strengthened. After Luo Yunshi left, he bought a large batch of supplies and boxed meals to be taken back to the base first, while he and his dozen or so men settled in here.
He had just woken up and come to the fast-food restaurant to eat when he saw Luo Yunshi and Liu Lingqiu chatting animatedly. A sense of blockage welled up in Zhou Chuye's heart, and his smile became stiff.
"Ahem..." Zhou Chuye cleared his throat. Luo Yunshi glanced at him, nodded, and then turned away.
Zhou Chuye's smile finally couldn't be maintained. He had his subordinates buy boxed meals and then strode up to the two of them.
"You guys are chatting quite happily!" Zhou Chuye's voice came, filled with sourness.
"Huh?" Luo Yunshi looked up at him with confusion. "Is something wrong?"
"Luo Yunshi, the difference in your attitude towards us two is too great! I don't think I've offended you, have I?" Zhou Chuye looked at Luo Yunshi, feeling a bit vexed, with a hint of grievance in his eyes.
Liu Lingqiu knew Zhou Chuye naturally and saw the jealousy in his eyes. As a man, he understood. Zhou Chuye must have fallen for Luo Yunshi.
He just didn't understand what had happened between him and Luo Yunshi.
However, no matter what had happened, Luo Yunshi was a good girl, and this scumbag didn't deserve her.
"Base Leader Zhou, I think you've misunderstood? We're not close, so what kind of attitude should I have?" Luo Yunshi looked at Zhou Chuye with a bewildered expression.
Zhou Chuye felt a wave of frustration.
Not close? It doesn't matter. Soon, he regained a charming smile, his narrow phoenix eyes sparkling with brilliance.
"It doesn't matter if we're not close. We are now. My name is Zhou Chuye, the base leader of H Base, 25 years old, and single."
A wicked smile curved his lips, and as if joking, he continued, "Luo Yunshi, I like you, will you be my girlfriend!"
The surrounding customers, hearing someone confessing to Boss Luo, had their gossip flames burning fiercely. Even movies couldn't hold their attention anymore.
They exchanged glances, and then each of them looked at the TV while their ears were tuned to Luo Yunshi's side, their eating speed noticeably slowing down.
Liu Lingqiu frowned slightly upon hearing this and quickly looked at Luo Yunshi.
Luo Yunshi was also stunned. She hadn't expected Zhou Chuye to confess his feelings for her. Her heart couldn't help but grumble, "Pfft! Scumbag!"
"I'm sorry, Base Leader Zhou, I'm not interested in you." Luo Yunshi rejected him without hesitation.
Hearing her rejection, Liu Lingqiu's lips curved upwards slightly.
Zhou Chuye's smile froze for a moment, then he resumed his devastatingly charming smile, nodding. "Well, okay! The confession wasn't successful today! I'll try again next time!"
Luo Yunshi rolled her eyes upon hearing this. "It won't be successful no matter how many times you try. If there's nothing else, you can go eat. I have things to do." She then stood up and looked at Liu Lingqiu.
Liu Lingqiu also stood up. The two of them walked out of the fast-food restaurant.
Zhou Chuye sighed in his heart. "It seems I was too hasty! But I was serious."
He glanced at their retreating figures, bought a few dishes and a meal, and ate while watching the two outside the fast-food restaurant. The delicious food he was eating suddenly became unappetizing.
His subordinates who had come with him exchanged glances and silently ate their boxed meals.
They were just minor figures; they couldn't interfere in matters between the big shots. kuAiδugg
Luo Yunshi was unaware of Zhou Chuye's thoughts. She and Liu Lingqiu arrived not far from the fast-food restaurant. She retrieved an armored vehicle and a tank from her system backpack.
