After seeing the last customer leave, Chu Mengyao collapsed on the sofa. Now she can finally take a break. Today is even busier than yesterday, which is very rare. She can finally take a break after being so busy until now. She was really exhausted from the previous wave.
“Why are there so many people these two days~”
Zhou Xiaoxiao lay weakly on the bar, complaining weakly. That posture made people want to make a deal. If there were other customers here, she would definitely not be able to control herself.
"Hey, isn't it good for someone to come to the store? Do you want to sit there and drink tea every day doing nothing? This is not a light X department, how can we let you take it so easy." Luo Xiaoning was so tired that even her second year disease was temporarily cured.
"Yes, yes." Zhou Xiaoxiao said shamelessly. She came here because she believed Luo Xiaoning's words that it was easy here, she had nothing to do every day but could still make tea and drink, and she could also get some extra pocket money for takeout.
Although most of the time after coming here is indeed as relaxing as Luo Xiaoning said, I will be exhausted as a dog during weekends or holidays.
Just then, Ling Ling and Xia You brought out today's lunch from the kitchen, probably lunch.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. This is today's lunch. Although it's almost evening, let's just treat it as dinner!" Ling Ling said after putting the things in his hand on the table.
"There's food!" Chu Mengyao's eyes turned green when she heard there was food to eat. After struggling to get up from the sofa, she looked at the tempting food on the table and couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
"This is it!" Luo Xiaoning's nose twitched, and then her eyes shot out an extremely sharp light, "This is the smell of a high-level sacrifice. When did the 'Witch of the Netherworld' become able to make such a high-level sacrifice? I seem to see the light emanating from these sacrifices."
Xia You, who was standing next to him, lowered her head and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "This... This was not done by me, it was done by Ling Ling."
"Delicious!" Chu Mengyao started eating right away.
"Damn it! As the first apostle under my command, you actually took action without waiting for me to taste this high-quality sacrifice. Don't you want to do it anymore?" Luo Xiaoning said as she moved to the dining table and started grabbing food with Chu Mengyao.
Zhou Xiaoxiao, who was lying on the bar, couldn't help but come over and said to the two guys who were eating voraciously: "Please pay attention to your image. If a customer comes in now, your image will be ruined." Not long after, Zhou Xiaoxiao also threw his image to nowhere. After all, image cannot be eaten.
Even Ye Xuan, who was usually cold and icy, let go of her reserve and moved closer.
Looking at the group of people who were enjoying the meal, Ling Ling smiled slightly. As a cook, what he liked most was seeing others like the food he cooked.
Not long after, several people were lying on the sofa with their arms around their stomachs. They were so full that they couldn't move. In fact, it wasn't because Ling Ling's cooking was so amazing. After all, it didn't glow, and there was no bursting of clothes. It was because Chu Mengyao and the others were really hungry. When you are really hungry, even instant noodles will taste delicious.
Fortunately, after the peak period, there were fewer customers, just a few scattered here and there, which made Ling Ling and the others feel relieved.
······
When it was time to get off work, after Ling Ling changed her clothes, she found Ye Xuan standing outside. Ling Ling asked in confusion, "Aren't you going home yet?"
"Wait for you."
"Eh!?" Ling Ling stared at the other person with big eyes, and then suddenly realized that Ye Xuan's home should be in the same direction as hers, otherwise she wouldn't have met her last night. Ling Ling, who suddenly realized, quickly said, "Then let's go together."
As Ling Ling and Ye Xuan disappeared outside the door, Chu Mengyao quickly pulled Luo Xiaoning over and said to her, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
"Hey~ I still have to watch today's new anime. I've been busy all day and don't have time to watch it." Luo Xiaoning looked reluctant.
"Aren't you curious?"
"What are you curious about?" Luo Xiaoning said subconsciously, and then suddenly remembered something, so she said in a middle school tone: "Really? After all, it is possible that the newly summoned apostles may be sent by 'Heaven'. I will accompany you for a walk, hehe~"
"Count me in too." Zhou Xiaoxiao said as she stood next to them at some point.
"Tail, tail, tail... Tail or something... that's not a good idea." Xia You placed two fingers on her chest and circled them around. She looked like she wanted to go but didn't dare to say it.
"Since you are all going, then you have to follow my command. We have to enter the village quietly, and no one should fire guns."
·····
The two of them walked slowly on the way home. They were originally planning to take the bus, but when they saw how crowded the bus was, they hesitated for a moment and decided to walk.
Looking at the extremely congested traffic on the roadside, Ling Ling felt so relieved that she almost vomited. As a mysophobe, she hated squeezing into buses and subways in her previous life, but now she had no choice.
"Is it okay for Yuyu to be home alone? What about lunch and dinner?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Ling Ling smiled slightly and said, "Xiaoxiao is very well behaved. I gave her some money. She should have lunch and dinner at the restaurant downstairs."
"Oh~" Ye Xuan responded, and suddenly felt as if someone was following them. Looking back, she didn't find anything wrong.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Ye Xuan shook her head. It must be an illusion.
Behind the newsstand not far behind the two of them, Chu Mengyao touched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and pushed them all over here, otherwise they would have been discovered.
"Mom, look at what those older sisters are doing?" A little girl passing by pointed at Chu Mengyao and her group and asked her mother curiously.
The little girl's mother looked in the direction her daughter's hand was, then took her daughter away without saying a word, saying as she walked away, "Children, don't look at things you shouldn't look at."
"They don't think we are perverts, do they?!" Zhou Xiaoxiao said speechlessly.
"Our current behavior is really a bit like..." Chu Mengyao looked around and said in agreement.
"Well, well, they are gone." Xia You reminded stutteringly.
After hearing what Xia You said, several people came out from behind the bunker and found that the people were really missing. They looked forward but still could not find any trace of the two people.
As Ling Ling was walking, someone suddenly pulled her. When she came to her senses, she found that she was already in Ye Xuan's arms.
"What's going on? Is Ye Xuan a lesbian? Is she hugging me suddenly to say that she has liked me for a long time or something like that? Or is she trying to force me? That's not good. Although this is a small alley, there are still many people passing by here. At least we have to go to a place with fewer people..." All kinds of shameless thoughts flashed through Ling Ling's mind in an instant.
Just when Ling Ling was daydreaming, Ye Xuan said calmly, "Someone is following us."
"Eh!?" Ling Ling was stunned for a moment, then asked worriedly, "Could it be that weird uncle from yesterday? If so, it would be a bit dangerous."
Ye Xuan shook her head and said, "It's Chu Mengyao and the others."
Ling Ling secretly poked half of her head out to look outside the alley. Luo Xiaoning was wearing that extremely eye-catching Gothic skirt. She was the only one who could walk around on the street in this outfit as if nothing had happened.
Ling Ling turned around and asked in confusion: "Why are they following us?"
"have no idea."
After Ye Xuan finished speaking, she pulled Ling Ling out from the other side of the alley. She found that Ling Ling's hands were not as smooth as those of ordinary girls, but a little rough. Ye Xuan subconsciously held Ling Ling's hands tighter.

So, why does Xianyu update twice? This is a question.
Chapter 14: Can we play without the hammer flying
The next day.
Chu Mengyao looked at Ling Ling with resentment. She had searched for the two for a long time last night but couldn't find any trace of them. She was also approached by a few hooligans. Although she had already vented her anger on those hooligans, she still felt very unhappy.
Don't get the wrong idea. Chu Mengyao's family runs a martial arts school, and she has been influenced by her grandfather since she was a child. Let alone a few little hooligans, she wouldn't be afraid even if there were twice as many.
