Chapter 49 My Mom Calls
If, when Ares smelled the fragrance, he thought: The mutant octopus is not impossible to kill.

When Ares ate the spicy fried octopus, his mind changed.

He thought: What's wrong with the mutant octopus?
Without a mecha and a thunder cannon, you can’t kill him?

That's impossible!

He can also fight in close combat!

what?
Can't beat it?
That's impossible!

Although he is a commander, his combat ability is also among the best in the empire.

Tonight, he is going to kill the mutant octopus!

Kill two!

Woohoo!

The spicy fried octopus is delicious.

The octopus meat is chewy and chewy, and when you take a bite, it’s chewy yet soft.

Beneath the firm, thick and soft meat is the fresh fragrance of the ocean, which slowly blooms as it is bitten open layer by layer.

Like the sea, it gently extends its hand and gives you a sweet and fragrant hug.

Ares took a satisfied breath, feeling the salty smell enveloping him, and felt...

I am full of strength.

He wants to kill the mutant octopus now!

If he had known that this thing was so delicious, he would have killed it long ago!
Although they are difficult to kill, there are many of them!
Ares was eating, and Sheng Jiu was not idle either.

She hadn't finished her previous portion yet.

Sheng Jiu was not as fast as Ares. She ate slowly and occasionally drank a sip or two of jujube tea.

But not much, because I was afraid that drinking too much water would dilute the stomach acid, so I just drank a few sips to satisfy my craving.

By the time Sheng Jiu finished eating, Ares had already eaten his sixth portion.

Sheng Jiu:.

Okay, she'll go fry it again now!

There is a group of teammates there who are crying out for help.

Sheng Jiu started frying again skillfully.

Li Chengxiang: …

Boss, why don’t you take a look at your phone?

I wonder how many people are outside, are they about to faint from greed?
The diners who didn't know the news came over and smelled the delicious food and didn't want to leave.

Some people smelled it and thought it was seafood, so they guessed that if they couldn’t eat it today, they should be able to have it tomorrow, right?
"But, with so much cooking, why don't you open the door?"

"Does the boss need a food taster?"

"I can pay for it myself, please, open the door."

……

After being intoxicated by the aroma, the diners started to go crazy.

Fortunately, they all controlled their behavior and did not actually knock on the door.

By the time the aroma wafting from the store became fainter, Ares had already eaten his fill and carried out another forty meals.

Before leaving, he specifically explained: "Young boss, leave it alone, I'll be back to collect it later."

Sheng Jiu responded loudly. After Ares left, she took a quick shower to wash off the oil smoke on her body. Then she packed up the remaining octopus meat and froze it.

She couldn't go back to the village for the time being, so she kept it in the freezer and waited for Sheng Siyu to come over to take it back.

After putting it away, Sheng Jiu finally had time to look at his phone.

Seeing Li Chengxiang’s message first, she replied embarrassedly, saying that she was busy and didn’t see it. At the same time, she said that if she had the chance, she would cook spicy fried octopus.

Li Chengxiang: …

I was so greedy before that I ordered a small seafood dish with sauce, but after taking two bites I found it hard to swallow.

Now after seeing Sheng Jiu’s reply, I feel that this dish is not worth it.

He wasted more than a hundred dollars.

Wow, do you know how many hours it takes for him to earn more than a hundred yuan?

Li Chengxiang wiped his tears and replied to the message, saying that it was okay and he could wait. In addition to Li Chengxiang, Lin Qi and others who had added him on VX before also came to ask.

Sheng Jiu felt that her business hours were not very stable, so she actually needed to create a group.

If you have any questions, please let the group know in advance so that more diners can know the normal business hours.

Thinking of this, she created a group overnight, added Lin Qi and the others in, then took a screenshot of the QR code and sent it to the boss she had added at the copy shop before, asking him to help print a few copies.

The two people briefly discussed the required quantities on VX, calculated the money, and then agreed on a time to pick up the items.

After finishing his work, Sheng Jiu casually checked his circle of friends. There were all kinds of mixed messages, and before he could read them carefully, a call came in.

Qing.

Sheng Jiu’s biological mother.

Seeing her incoming call, Sheng Jiu raised his eyebrows, wondering in his heart why the other party called at this time.

Most likely it’s because I called the police myself, right?

Thinking of this, Sheng Jiuwei sighed.

After the call was connected, Sheng Jiu just responded but didn't rush to speak.

Lu Qing didn't know what to say to Sheng Jiu.

Mother and daughter...

The relationship is not really close.

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Qing asked in a low voice: "...your cousin...isn't it that Gu Deming is looking for trouble with you?"

At first, Lu Qing wanted to say, "your cousin", but she probably guessed that Sheng Jiu would not want to hear it, so she changed her words temporarily.

Sheng Jiu didn't hide it either, and replied calmly: "Yeah."

After listening to this, Qing was silent for a while. After a while, she whispered, "I'm sorry, it's my fault that I'm not capable."

After hearing this, Sheng Jiu was also silent, but it didn't last long: "It's okay, I don't blame you."

Sheng Jiu is no longer at the age where she longs for her mother to stand up and protect her.

Now, she can protect herself.

So, no expectations, no disappointment, and nothing to resent.

She had seen how her mother protected her younger brother. At that time, Lu Qing was like an awakened lioness, looking ferocious and not to be messed with.

At that time, Sheng Jiu understood that no one stipulated that a mother must love every child equally.

No one has stipulated that every child must love his mother.

She was grateful to her mother for giving her life and for loving her for several years.

Sheng Jiu was willing to understand his mother's difficulties, but that was where it ended.

She couldn't give Luqing the mother-daughter love she wanted.

Sheng Jiu had never experienced being loved from beginning to end, so she didn't know how to respond.

Nowadays, not disturbing each other and contacting each other occasionally is the best way to get along.

Sheng Jiu even breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Lu Qing called and said sorry instead of blaming him.

She thought, at least her mother didn't stand on the other side in a foolish way, and she was already satisfied.

Lu Qing also knew that she and Sheng Jiu were not close.

Even after she remarried, she hadn't seen Sheng Jiu for several years for the sake of her new life, and didn't even call him.

It was not far away, but it seemed to have disappeared.

By the time Lu Qing realized what was happening, time had already gone.

Listening to Sheng Jiu's words at this time, Lu Qing felt uncomfortable, sour and awkward, but she didn't want to blame Sheng Jiu.

Lu Qing opened her mouth for a long time before she whispered, "Take care of yourself."

Sheng Jiu responded softly: "Yeah, I know."

The mother and daughter were silent for a long time. Finally, Lu Qing couldn't stand the silence anymore. After saying something, she hung up the phone first.

After Sheng Jiu hung up the phone, before he had time to feel sad, he heard someone knocking on the door upstairs and the system reminder sounded.

[The person knocking on the door this time is likely a new customer~]
