Huangquan Grocery Store: I became rich after live streaming and selling goods

Chapter 25: Talking on the phone with a non-existent person

The bathroom was filled with steam, and a blurry figure was looming on the glass.

The water flowed down the smooth skin and sank into the ground.

The shower stopped, and Kotonoha wrapped herself in a bath towel, took off the towel hanging horizontally, wiped her hair, and walked out.

Pearl happily pounced over and circled at her feet, its fluffy fur sweeping back and forth like a large sesame dumpling with the filling exposed.

"Pearl, stop it."

At this time, Kotonoha was very gentle and let down all her defenses in her own space.

Pearl squatted obediently on the carpet at her feet, her body lying down softly, almost blending into the white of the carpet.

Looking at myself in the mirror.

Are you angry?
Should be angry.

It had been a long time since anyone dared to throw this kind of dirty stuff at her, and she had to wash it over and over again to get rid of the unpleasant smell.

She grabbed some of her hair and smelled it several times.

Once I have an idea in my mind, I always feel that the smell is still lingering in my hair.

I couldn't sleep until midnight.

Early in the morning, the big yellow dog next door started barking.

The sunlight from the courtyard shines into the bedroom through the flower pots placed on the windowsill.

The house is decorated in a minimalist style with only a few pieces of furniture, yet it exudes an air of grandeur in its simplicity.

They are all old items.

The girl, who was trapped in the middle of the bed, was wrapped in a warm quilt. When she heard the noise, she turned over impatiently, pulled the quilt over her head and continued to sleep.

The person outside the door had already become impatient waiting, but there was a gold ingot blocking his way.

I don’t know what the famous Jin Yuanbao from the Time Grocery Store was doing in the middle of the night. He was so dirty.

Gu Cheng folded his arms across his chest and looked at the human curled up in the corner with a playful look.

"Who is that? When did you leave the guests outside?"

Jin Yuanbao put his hands on his hips, full of momentum. "That's not a guest, it's an intruder, who was frightened by Baiyin and then beaten by Kotonoha."

"So miserable? But I'm curious about what he did to make that arrogant Baiyin and Kotonoha take action at the same time. But now... I have more important things to do. You quickly get Kotonoha to get up. I need to collect goods for delivery. What if I get my salary deducted for being late? Will you make it up to me?"

"She was in a bad mood yesterday. Let her sleep a little longer."

Gu Cheng is a deliveryman who specializes in collecting express parcels at Shiguang Grocery Store. Since he is the only one there at the moment, and Yan Ye's recent live broadcast has been very effective, selling a lot of goods, he is busy in the warehouse every day.

In just a few days, I lost a lot of weight.

He wanted to find someone to complain to, someone was abusing workers here. But who could he complain to? Yan Ye was his boss. He complained to his boss, and he also wanted to work for a few more years to save some points for a better life in the next life.

"Don't you usually hate Kotonoha the most? Why are you so considerate today?"

"Because I hate you more than Yanye." There is a reason why Jin Yuanbao hates Gu Cheng. He called him "Little Fatty" from the first time they met. From time to time, he would feel like pulling his two antennae.

This forces it to rearrange its hairstyle every time.

The atmosphere is already set, it would be awkward if we don’t do something.

Gu Cheng's hands were already ready to move.

"Little Yuanbao, it's been too long since I last rubbed you. Since Yanye hasn't woken up yet, let your brother play with you for a while!"

This statement is very insightful.

"Don't touch me, I'm going to get angry, and I'm scary when I'm angry."

While listening, he had already put his hands on Jin Yuanbao's head. He held the two antennas in his hands, flicking them here and bending them there.

Yanye opened the door and walked out.

The scene in front of me is a bit beautiful.

One machine and half ghosts are about to start fighting.

Seeing Yanye, Gu Cheng immediately left the gold ingot and walked in. "Boss, I have something important to tell you, it's urgent." Seeing Yanye's hand reaching out to the pot, Gu Cheng was so scared that he immediately stopped it, took the kitchen utensils and put them as far away as possible.

After all, the last experience is still vivid in my mind.

When Kotonoha cooks, something bad is going to happen.

Last time he came to pick up the goods, the kitchen was blown up, and he ran in to put out the fire, and it exploded again. It would have been fine if he died once, but he was forced to die twice.

"Aunt, I bought you breakfast. Go eat it on the table!"

It was rare for him to get up early, and he seemed to be in a good mood. Gu Cheng thought he could raise his request. "You see, the number of orders is increasing now, and I can't handle it alone. Why don't we hire a few more people?"

"can."

"Right, I don't really have high expectations... Wait, what did you say?" Gu Cheng, who had spent the whole night studying game theory and preparing for a protracted war with Yan Ye, was like a dud. "You took the right medicine, didn't you?"

Yanye, who had not taken her medicine and was drinking porridge and eating dumplings, ignored him.

"If you have nothing to do, go find a few for Jin Yuanbao to look at."

Oh! I almost forgot about the courtyard manager, Fatty Jin.

Gu Cheng loaded a car full of express deliveries and left, and did not forget to tease Zhenzhu before leaving.

"Pearl, the pearl in your nest seems to have lost its skin."

Pearl, who was lying in the nest, jumped up and opened her eyes wide.

Yanye quietly put down the bowl of porridge and left.

She sat down at the desk in the lobby. Before she could refill her tea cup, a piece of paper slowly appeared on the wooden table with a name written on it. After a moment, the name and the paper disappeared.

Zhuang Qingchun.

This name is somewhat insulting.

Yanye cleaned up for a while and waited for the guests to come. Jin Yuanbao was waiting at the door early, and when the other party appeared, he immediately presented a smiling service.

"Welcome to the Shiguan Grocery Store. Please come in."

Zhuang Qingchun looked at the room in front of him suspiciously, and followed Jin Yuanbao into the hall with some caution.

The house is filled with a wide variety of goods, the number of which is dizzying.

Even more dazzling is the woman sitting behind the table.

He looked at her with a bright smile on his face, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Hello, sit down and talk!"

It's like one of those mysterious old houses in TV dramas, connected to modern high technology, with a master living in it.

A cup of hot tea was pushed in front of Zhuang Qingchun, and she carefully held the cup with both hands. The little bit of temperature warmed her fingertips and eased her tension.

"Can any wish really come true here?"

"Baby, we don't help people realize their wishes here. We only fulfill the wishes of the deceased."

"But I have no other last wishes except for the death of that bastard couple."

No, no, no, it is impossible for someone without a last wish to come to the Time Grocery Store, unless he or she does not even realize it.

"Did you just say bastards?"

When she mentioned this, she lowered her head with some sadness. "I was cheated on."

"Tell me more about it." Yanye handed over the tissue considerately and tried her best to act normal. She was definitely not here to watch the show, she was working.

"My boyfriend and I agreed to go home to meet our parents during the Chinese New Year, but one day I found a strange ID on his social media. The conversation between us was also strange, like some kind of encrypted code. Until after a movie..."

……

"I found him on the phone with someone who didn't exist."

　Here it comes. The previous list of winners will be announced tomorrow, and a new round of snack gift packs will be drawn.
