Chapter 252: Chapter 0252: Supermarket Turmoil

Tang Ming had now mastered the art of making diet ice pops and quickly finished the task, but the moment he stepped out of the workshop, Liu Mengting and the others hurriedly dragged him to the supermarket.

"Hey, hey, I haven’t even eaten yet, and you’re dragging me to the supermarket, this is definitely abuse, I protest!"

Pushing the shopping cart and following behind the three women, Tang Ming complained discontentedly.

"Hahaha, your protest is invalid, by the time you finish eating, the supermarket will be closed!"

Liu Mengting said without turning her head.

"We have to buy lots and lots of yummy things!"

Li Xiaoli excitedly started sweeping through all the food sections with Xia Wei’er and Liu Mengting in tow.

"I’m starving to death!"

Tang Ming pushed the cart listlessly, grumbling.

"Brother Ming, this is a supermarket, there’s so much food, just eat something!"

Zhou Dafu suggested with a mischievous smile.

"Isn’t it not good to eat before paying?"

Tang Ming’s eyes lit up, but then he hesitated.

"We’re not skipping out on paying, just keep the packaging and that’s fine!"

Zhou Dafu rolled his eyes. Just do the billing scan when checking out—it’s not like you’re scanning the food itself.

"Smart!"

Tang Ming slapped Zhou Dafu’s shoulder hard and handed him his cart, "You follow them, I’m going to find a place to eat."

"Hey, hey, pushing two carts by myself, I can’t handle it!"

Zhou Dafu complained, regretting he had spoken out in the first place.

Tang Ming found a less crowded shelf and started to frantically attack the food placed there, then saved all the packaging, preparing to check out later!

Liu Mengting, Li Xiaoli, and Xia Wei’er shopped together in the supermarket for what they needed for the next day.

Liu Mengting was quiet and focused on shopping, while Li Xiaoli crazily stuffed items into the shopping cart, quickly filling the two carts pushed by Zhou Dafu.

"Brother Ming, save me!"

Zhou Dafu, red-faced from exhaustion, inwardly cried, "I can barely push all these things; I’m exhausted!"

Seeing that her and Liu Mengting’s carts were full, Li Xiaoli’s eyes flicked about, then turned to Xia Wei’er’s empty cart and asked, "Why aren’t you buying anything, Wei’er?"

"I don’t really need anything."

Xia Wei’er responded with a weird look at the two overflowing carts.

"You guys are buying too much, not all of this is for tomorrow, right?"

"Of course it is!"

Li Xiaoli quickly replied, sighing, "Tang Ming can eat so much, even all this won’t fill his stomach. Meng Meng and I have to prepare more, or else we can’t satisfy his appetite."

"That’s true; the guy is like a bottomless pit, he can’t move if there’s food."

Liu Mengting nodded; if it weren’t for Tang Ming, she would not have let Li Xiaoli act so recklessly.

"Wei’er, Tang Ming has helped you so much; don’t you think you should also prepare something for him to eat tomorrow?"

Li Xiaoli looked mischievously at Xia Wei’er; bringing Xia Wei’er along had been her intention for this purpose.

"I..."

Xia Wei’er moved her lips but didn’t know what to say.

She wanted to bring something for Tang Ming to eat, but his appetite was so huge and she didn’t have any money, making it impossible for her to satisfy him.

"Sorry, sorry, I forgot about your situation."

Li Xiaoli suddenly realized and said apologetically, "Don’t worry, with Meng Meng paying, we’ll make sure Tang Ming can eat his fill. Just show a token of appreciation."

"Just pick up whatever you want, I’ll check it out for you."

Liu Mengting was also aware of Xia Wei’er’s situation and cast a reproachful glance at Li Xiaoli.

"I’ll go have a look elsewhere."

Xia Wei’er felt bitter in her heart.

"Then give me this shopping cart to use, to satisfy Brother Tang Ming at least another cart is needed."

Li Xiaoli snatched the shopping cart from Xia Wei’er’s hand and continued her shopping spree.

Xia Wei’er parted from Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli with a downcast air, not sure if Li Xiaoli was deliberately provoking her, but the thought of Tang Ming’s fearsome appetite made her realize she really couldn’t satisfy it. Seeing Liu Mengting’s situation, she immediately felt somewhat inferior!

"Xiaoli, you wouldn’t be doing this on purpose, would you?"

Watching Xia Wei’er’s retreating figure, Liu Mengting looked at Li Xiaoli with suspicion, knowing that Li Xiaoli was the type who reveled in chaos. This sudden invite to Xia Wei’er definitely smelled fishy.

"Hee hee, what I’m doing is called..."

"Wow, what a hottie!"

Just then, an exclamation sounded.

A young man with silver hair, dressed in a trendy outfit, a silver necklace hanging around his neck, looking like a Korean idol, walked over with a man who had a scar on his face.

"Damn, that’s the Black Society who demolished Xia Wei’er’s house!"

Zhou Dafu immediately recognized the newcomers’ identity, dropped the shopping cart, abandoned the two women, and bolted.

"The little fatty is quite obedient!"

Brother Huo, eyes gleaming, sized up Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli with excitement and said:

"I never imagined I’d bump into such high-quality beauties while shopping at the supermarket. I truly have luck with the ladies!"

"Yeah, yeah, that girl has such big boobs; it’s spectacular!"

Scar Face leered at Li Xiaoli, almost drooling.

"Who are you guys?"

Furious at being scrutinized, Li Xiaoli yelled.

"Brother Huo, tonight I’m your man. Ladies, would you be interested in making a new friend?"

Brother Huo struck what he thought was an extremely dashing pose and swaggered over to the two women to show off.

"Not interested!"

Liu Mengting snorted coldly and pulled Li Xiaoli, ready to leave, but Brother Huo and Scar Face clung to them shamelessly, refusing to let go.

Just as Brother Huo and Scar Face were becoming more obtrusive and about to get physical, a playful voice rang out, "You two good-for-nothings are pretty bold, aren’t you, hitting on my people!"

"Who’s farting, meddling in my damn business..."

Brother Huo looked angrily toward the source of the voice, but before he could finish his sentence, his face turned green.

"Are you cursing me?"

Tang Ming, while eating, curiously looked at Brother Huo.

"Brother Tang, they bullied Xia Wei’er; you should give them a good beating."

Zhou Dafu called out breathlessly, having run off to find Tang Ming.

"Brother Tang Ming, save me and Sister Meng Meng, some bad guys are bullying us!"

Seeing Tang Ming arrive, Li Xiaoli immediately shouted dramatically.

Liu Mengting was slightly flushed at Tang Ming’s phrase "my people!"

"No, no, I just wanted to make friends with them, I didn’t know they were your people."

Brother Huo hurriedly forced a smile and tried to explain.

"Damn it, why did I have to run into this scourge? Even the young master turns into a mouse in front of a cat when he sees him. If I annoy him again, I’ll end up in the hospital."

Scar Face was equally pale.
