Chapter 8 : The second Customer

"Stop messing around and hurry up and tell me what happened."

Bu Shiyi couldn't help but smile as she looked at Bu Lige. Her younger brother's recovery from his dark injury had put her in a good mood.

Bu Lige then recounted his experience of buying Coke from Luo Chuan's store.

"You mean to say that you healed from your dark wounds and directly broke through to the realm of good fortune because of a bottle of Coke?" Bu Shiyi raised her beautiful eyebrows and said with a slight smile.

Bu Lige, not noticing the change in the atmosphere, nodded enthusiastically. "Yes! Ten Lingjing! The Coke only cost ten Lingjing! I suspect the boss is selling at a loss!"

"Oh? So, why didn't you buy more bottles?"

"If it hadn't been for the shop's rule that each person could only buy one bottle per day, I would have bought out that shop long ago!" Bu Lige said casually.

"So that's how it is..." Bu Shiyi's slender fingers grabbed Bu Lige's ear and twisted slightly as she sneered, "You dare even lie to your sister? Do you think a bottle of Coke for ten Lingjing can have a better effect than the elixirs in the mansion?"

Feeling the pain, Bu Lige was almost in tears. "Why don't you believe me? I'm telling the truth!"

"Did you lie to me?"

"It's true! I swear by the heavens!"

Bu Lige was almost ready to swear an oath.

"In that case, I'll believe you for now." Bu Shiyi released Bu Lige's ear.

Bu Lige rubbed his red ear, feeling dejected.

"Take me to that store tomorrow. I'm very interested in this mysterious boss," Bu Shiyi said, narrowing her eyes.

The next morning, Luo Chuan opened the store early. He lay on a rocking chair, enjoying the warmth of the sun while chatting with the system in his mind.

"I said, system, isn't the mission you gave me a bit unrealistic? Selling one hundred bottles of Coke and one hundred packs of spicy strips in a month? Do you think that's possible with the current foot traffic in the store?"

"Host, please work hard."

"Can't the system allow more time? Or maybe advertise our store?"

"Host, please work hard."

"System, can you say anything else?"

The system remained silent.

Luo Chuan: ...

"Boss, I'm here again!"

Luo Chuan opened his eyes slightly, and Bu Lige's face came into view. Beside him was a woman with bright eyes, white teeth, and long black hair like a waterfall, resembling a fairy descending to earth.

Bu Shiyi frowned as she looked at the shop behind Luo Chuan. Opening a store in such a remote alley, with a sign displaying the four bold characters of "Origin Mall," plus the shabby appearance, made her doubt the reliability of this boss...

Bu Shiyi glanced at Luo Chuan, already feeling doubtful about Bu Lige's story.

"Are you the owner of this store?" Bu Shiyi asked, her voice crisp like a silver bell.

Luo Chuan nodded calmly, "Yes."
