To be fair, despite the badger's mockery of unprofessionalism, the National Exhibition Center's closing time is not too early. I had only been walking in the shopping street for a while when the lights around me came on and all the shops lit up their lanterns and neon signs.
This shopping street is quite large, with about 70 stores in total. Even if Wang Ping and the little fox were both big eaters, it would be impossible for them to eat every store.
But even if you just pick and choose and only eat what you like, it is enough to make some people collapse.
Under the lanterns near the exit on the other side of the shopping street, a young man who had followed the little fox all the way rubbed his stomach and burped with a gloomy face.
The young man's face turned even darker, as if he felt that it was a little unserious to burp in such a serious occasion.
But there is nothing we can do about it, man is made of iron and food is made of steel.
He followed these two guys all the way. Not to mention that it was almost time for dinner, he would feel hungry just by watching these two guys eat.
Finally, when the little fox and the badger finally reached the end, not counting the two of them, the young man alone had finished three skewers of fried guinea fowl, a bag of red bean glutinous rice dumplings, a bag of black pepper senbei and two bowls of oden.
When you calculate it this way, he actually ate more than usual and was so full.
"Fortunately, it's finally over!"
The young man who walked out of the shopping street ahead of time took a breath and looked at the dark alleys with dim street lights on both sides with a sneer on his face.
Thanks to these two foodies, he had plenty of time to call for help. No matter where the little fox went, someone would be lying in ambush there to greet her.
"Oh, we're at the end. This street is so short~"
A burst of silver bell-like laughter came from behind. Although the little fox complained, he was still in a good mood.
The young man turned his head slightly and saw the little girl holding the selfie stick walking out with a small cup of milk tea. On her shoulder, the fat badger was holding a bag specially for milk tea, which contained a large cup of pearl milk tea. He was sucking hard with a straw.
A man and a badger walked out of the shopping street in front of him and turned left. The young man raised his mouth, took out his cell phone, and dialed the number he had contacted before.
"Mexi mexi!"
A man's voice came from the receiver. Just as the young man was about to speak, he heard the familiar exclamation again.
"Wow! There's unagi yaki here! How about we have dinner here?"
When he looked up, a fat badger was standing on the girl's shoulder and nodding frantically. So in front of the street food stall, the young man watched the man and the badger nimbly find an empty table and sit down, then ask the store owner to order food.
"Mexi, mexi? Are you listening?"
There were constant inquiries from the receiver, sounding a little anxious. Then, someone on the other end heard a local curse word being uttered on the phone.
"What?"
"Ah, Fourth Auntie! I'm not talking about you, Boss~"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. He quickly covered the microphone, took small steps to the other side, and explained in a low voice.
At the food stall, the little fox had already asked for the menu and ordered the signature charcoal grilled pomfret and secret soba noodles. While waiting for the food to be served, he chatted with netizens in the live broadcast room and then teased a badger.
Wang Ping discovered that after following the little fox for less than two days, his skin seemed to have become thicker.
Before this, he would never expose his love for beautiful women in front of the camera, let alone be so shameless as to lean over the booth to look at bikini cosplayers.
It’s not that they are influenced by the company they keep, the little fox’s moral integrity is always higher than that of Gu Lao San.
But when he was with her, Wang Ping would always subconsciously treat her as a little kid who hadn't grown up, and he himself was the irresponsible parent. The more the child disliked something, the more he wanted to see it.
Of course, this is not just his fault... It's the badger's fault, the little fox's attitude is also an inducing factor.
Perhaps it was because the impression of the "big brother" left on the little fox during their previous time on the island was too deep, the little fox's attitude towards Wang Ping was not entirely the same as the joy of a little girl seeing a cute thing, but rather a bit of fawning.
For example, now, when the steaming eel covered with coriander and chopped green onion was served on the table, the little fox immediately pushed it in front of a badger.
"Boss, try it! It smells so good!"
The aroma interrupted the badger's thoughts. Wang Ping pushed the milk tea cup that blocked his view and raised his feet on the chair. He was frowning at the chopstick holder on the table when the little fox got up and ran to the food stall. After a while, he came back trotting with a fork in his hand.
"Hey~"
The little hand turned the fork around and handed it to him. Wang Ping sighed and just as he took it, the phone on the table suddenly rang with a series of tips.
"Uncle Sausage gave the anchor a super rocket x 1..."
"Uncle Sausage gave the anchor a super rocket x2..."
"Uncle Sausage gave the anchor a super rocket x 3..."
"… "
"Uncle Sausage gave the anchor a super rocket x 10..."
"Front row watching boss"
"The rich man looks familiar to me"
"Seeing this loving scene, I couldn't help but wet my eyes"
“Clang!”
The startled little fox and badger shuddered at the same time, and the fork fell on the table with a crisp sound. Wang Ping's face darkened immediately and he glared at the camera.
"What a mistake. I scared Mr. Ping. I admit my mistake."
A red barrage floated across the screen, followed by a series of super rockets, which made Wang Ping lose his temper.
You have a lot of money, so you have the final say!
He retracted his middle claw which was almost erected, reached for the fork, dug out a piece from the belly of the fish in front of him, and stuffed it directly into his mouth without caring whether there were bones or not.
Smells good! Really smells good!
"Hehe, is it delicious? Let me try it too!"
Seeing this, the little fox who had just thanked his "old friend" on the opposite side hurriedly grabbed a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of food along the place where the badger had dug, and ate with his eyes narrowed.
At this time, footsteps were heard, and the noodles ordered by the little fox were delivered. The man and the badger no longer had time to talk, and began to eat.
"Gudong~"
On the other side of the shopping street exit, a young man hiding in the shadow of a street lamp silently swallowed the liquid in his throat that might be saliva or tears, and turned his head away with a gloomy face.
"It's almost there... just bear with it!"
Two passers-by walked behind him, and the gap they made just in time revealed a badger that had just spit out a piece of fish bone in the food stall. As if by chance, the little black claw flicked on the table, and the fish bone flew behind the young man.
The figure in the darkness fell straight to the ground without even a sound.
The little fox heard the noise and turned his head subconsciously. When he saw the figure on the ground, he immediately cried out in surprise.
"Ah! Why did that person faint?"
Passersby on the street nearby gathered around to watch, and some even leaned forward to take a look. Little Fox was about to go over, but Wang Ping pulled her sleeve, pointed at the food and shook his head at her.
"Watching the fun is not as important as eating!"
"You don't want to go?"
The little fox hesitated for a moment, thinking that it was against the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation to not watch the excitement. But when he turned his head again, he found that someone was already on the phone and an uncle was helping with artificial respiration, so he nodded decisively: "Okay, then I won't go!"
Less than ten minutes later, when the sound of an ambulance sounded, the little fox sighed softly, "That little brother looked very young, but he fainted in the street. I heard that life here is stressful, and it seems to be true..."
"That's right. A career like gangsters can leave you dead on the street any day. How can it not be stressful?"
Wang Ping grabbed the straw and took a sip of the milk tea, with a mocking sneer on his hairy face that no one could see.
Am I the badger that eats fish and spits out bones? Do you really think I won't recognize you if you put on a hat? You green-haired bastard who has to use other people's wifi to download porn movies!
