Apocalypse: I have a supermarket stocked with supplies
Chapter 380: Has a very low presence

Chapter 380: Has a very low presence

Not everyone could have a meal like his, he should be satisfied.

He was indeed very satisfied.

Humans are such fickle creatures.

Just moments ago he was full of complaints, but now he found himself enjoying the food.

Still, tasty as it might be, Lin Murong hadn’t forgotten the important matters at hand.

After finishing his meal and tidying up, he sought out Su Yinhe and Chi Yan to firmly communicate his feelings of being overlooked.

"Am I so insignificant that you can forget about me? Why did you forget about me? You can’t forget about me! Did you hear what I said?" Lin Murong glared at Su Yinhe.

Su Yinhe had an illusion; she thought if she dared to affirm that he was an insignificant presence, he would immediately show her what a significant presence looked like.

All she could do was meekly nod.

"I’m sorry, my mind hasn’t been right lately. I admit my fault. Chi Yan... he... he’s innocent." Su Yinhe didn’t know if her brain had a cramp, but she added another comment at the end.

Lin Murong was quite satisfied with this answer.

"Tsk. My brain is fine, so I won’t hold a grudge against someone whose mind is a bit off. But you must remember next time! Did you hear me?" Otherwise, he would make a fuss.

"Okay, okay, sure, sure," Su Yinhe responded somewhat dismissively.

But Lin Murong didn’t notice.

He had eaten his fill, and his mind, never the sharpest, felt even less so now that he was satiated and sleepy.

"Hmph. I’ll reluctantly forgive you this time. I’m going to sleep. Chi Yan, could you make steamed chicken for the next meal? I’m craving it," Lin Murong brazenly made his demand.

"Can I?" Chi Yan nonchalantly produced a small knife.

Lin Murong: "..."

"Never mind, suddenly I don’t feel like eating chicken anymore—who cares for chicken? I like duck; duck is delicious. Forget the chicken..." Saying this while yawning, Lin Murong walked away.

He sneakily glanced back at Chi Yan’s reaction.

Seeing Chi Yan watching him, he hurried even faster.

Ultimately, his walk nearly became a run.

It was only after Lin Murong was out of sight that Chi Yan put away the knife.

Su Yinhe: "..."

Six.

She had learned that this was the way to keep Lin Murong in check.

After Chi Yan put the knife away, he noticed her gaze.

"Galaxy, don’t just learn anything you see," learning things willy-nilly will only cause harm.

"Cough cough cough... I didn’t even say I wanted to learn. You... really have me pegged," Su Yinhe said with an embarrassed laugh after her hidden thoughts were exposed.

"I can tell," Chi Yan was tempted once more to stroke her head.

Lately, he truly enjoyed patting her head.

He found her quite adorable.

"Hey, you..." Su Yinhe stuttered for a bit before finally coming out with a phrase, "You really can read people."

Despite Chi Yan’s intelligence, he found it difficult to respond to her at that moment.

Hmm.

So it turned out he wasn’t that smart after all.

"Cough cough cough, I... didn’t mean that." Oh no, how awkward.

Su Yinhe felt like dying from embarrassment.

"I... I’m going downstairs to see," Su Yinhe quickly made up an excuse to escape, hoping to spare them both any further embarrassment.

Her mind was a little in disarray.

She sat down below and watched the robots cashiering.

There were still many people in the supermarket.

Even though the snow was falling heavily.

Without care, one could easily lose their life.

However, for them, not coming to the supermarket meant certain death from freezing or the cold. Heading to the supermarket might mean getting buried or frozen to death along the way.

The former was a certainty, the latter a matter of probability.

And during such times, the latter’s probability was greatly reduced.

Because simply too many people were visiting the supermarket, too many people were traveling from Sun Base to the supermarket.

They had trampled a path through the snow.

Originally, the thick snow made some afraid of getting lost.

But now, with the path clear, they no longer had to fear losing their way.

Following the crowd is the right way to go.

There’s no need to worry about getting lost.

Many people are afraid that the supermarket will soon vanish again, so they’re all frantically buying things now.

As if the supermarket would disappear the next second.

They’re converting all their Crystal Cores into the supplies they need, as much as possible.

So much stuff that they can’t even carry it all.

Sometimes, when Su Yinhe recognizes someone, she’ll offer a word of advice.

"Don’t buy so much at once, it’s not easy to carry in this weather."

The supermarket isn’t going to move that quickly, they could buy in smaller amounts more frequently.

When the boss personally tries to persuade them, they definitely agree on the spot.

But, agreeing is one thing, and what they do is another.

After trying a few times, Su Yinhe stops bothering.

She’s just a salesperson, why care so much?

Let them do what they want.

Too much advice might even annoy them.

Besides, having more things seems to make them feel more secure.

Let them be happy.

She’ll just quietly brew some tea.

Su Yinhe recently fell in love with tea brewing.

Tea brewing is not to be rushed, it needs to be done slowly. If done for a long time, it can be quite cultivating.

She thinks it’s not bad, she’ll brew more, and eventually she won’t need to be cultivated.

Lin Murong would get beaten up less often then.

Lin Murong, who was fast asleep, had no clue what Su Yinhe was thinking.

If he knew, he’d probably flip out.

Coincidentally, Xu Jiaoqin came by today.

Seeing her, Su Yinhe called out a greeting.

"Come, have a cup of tea." Try out her brewing skills.

"Sure thing." Xu Jiaoqin wasn’t shy with her.

She knew the boss wasn’t someone who enjoyed formalities.

If she wanted something, she’d just ask for it openly.

The boss would like that.

"Here, try this." Su Yinhe poured her a cup of the tea she had brewed.

The teacup wasn’t very big, and with one gulp, Xu Jiaoqin finished it.

It was slightly bitter, and beyond that... it didn’t seem to have much flavor.

At least, Xu Jiaoqin couldn’t taste anything.

Xu Jiaoqin honestly expressed her thoughts.

Su Yinhe poured her another cup.

"Gosh. I can’t taste it either." She just brewed it, learning the technique, but she definitely couldn’t taste it.

Any kind of tea tasted the same to her, all just tea.

At most, the more expensive ones smelled a bit more fragrant.

That was all.

Hearing this, Xu Jiaoqin was startled, then burst into laughter.

"Boss, you’re really too funny," she didn’t even know why she found it so hilarious, but Xu Jiaoqin kept laughing, uncontrollably.

"Hey? Stop laughing, what’s so funny?" Su Yinhe really didn’t know what was funny.

"I... I’m saying you’re cute," Xu Jiaoqin laughed until tears came out, wiping the corner of her eyes as she spoke.

Su Yinhe: "..."

That phrase felt eerily familiar; hadn’t she said something similar to Lin Murong?

"I thank you," Su Yinhe said, pulling a wry smile.

"Thank me? Eh? Hahahaha! Thank me hahahaha!"

With that one sentence, Su Yinhe somehow hit Xu Jiaoqin’s funny bone again, and she started laughing anew.
