Chapter 225 It’s Normal to Be Hit on (Two Chapters in One)

"Didn't you already eat an ice cream cone in the morning?"

"I have eaten it, but this ice cream was given to me by brother Lin Li! It's an exception..."

Xia Qing felt that eating too much ice cream was bad for children's health. She made an agreement with her daughter that she could only eat one ice cream a day.

"Okay, this time is an exception. You can eat it!" Xia Qing said with a smile as she looked at her daughter's watery eyes full of desire.

"Thank you, Mom." Zhou Tongtong almost jumped up with joy after receiving her mother's permission.

Seeing that her daughter was about to open the chocolate ice cream given by Lin Li, Xia Qing said, "Eat mom's fried chicken fillet first. You can put this ice cream in the refrigerator and eat it later."

When Zhou Tongtong heard this, she looked at the chocolate ice cream in her hand, and then at the steaming fried chicken tenders that had just been fried on the kitchen table.

There was a tangled expression on her round little face, and she was silent for a few seconds. Finally, she came to the refrigerator, squatted down, opened the freezer, and put the chocolate ice cream in her hand.

Xia Qing brought the fried chicken tenders to the restaurant table, while Zhou Tongtong followed her mother to the restaurant holding a small can of juice.

"Eat it! Be careful not to burn it." Xia Qing said to Zhou Tongtong who was sitting down, then took the small can of juice she put in front of her, opened it for her, and inserted a straw.

Zhou Tongtong picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of hot fried chicken fillet, puffed her mouth and blew a few times, then ate it in one bite.

She ate in a hurry and felt a little hot, but this didn't bother Zhou Tongtong. She quickly took the juice and took a sip through the straw.

"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you." Xia Qing looked at her daughter's anxious look and said with a smile.

"Click, click..."

Lin Li held a large bowl filled with fried chicken fillets in his hand, picked up the crispy fried chicken fillets one after another with chopsticks, and ate them quickly.

"The fried chicken tenders made by Xia Qing has a similar taste to the fried chicken tenders sold by the vendors with carts near the school entrance in junior high school. It's so delicious!"

Lin Li ate less than half a bowl of fried chicken tenders with gusto, and couldn't help but recall the time when he was in junior high school...

Back then, every afternoon after school, Lin Li would go to the vendors selling fried chicken tenders near the school gate and queue up to buy fried chicken tenders.

After finishing Xia Qing's fried chicken fillet, Lin Li picked up the uneaten half of the iced watermelon and continued eating.

After eating a big bowl of fried chicken tenders, I could also eat half a watermelon. This situation was unimaginable in the past. The side effects of eating the magical fruit have not disappeared yet, and the increase in food intake will continue for a few more days.

After breaking through to the second high level, Lin Li planned to take a good rest and stayed at home all afternoon.

There is air conditioning at home, there is TV to watch, there is iced watermelon to eat, you can play with your mobile phone, and you can also go to the study to play on the computer. It is very comfortable.

Time flies by like a flash, and it feels like an afternoon has passed in the blink of an eye.

The scorching sun that had been scorching the earth all day slowly set towards the horizon.

The bright red sunset is about to disappear, and the street lights on both sides of the street light up before the sun completely sets.

Seeing that night was about to fall, people who had been hiding at home due to the weather gradually began to come out one after another, and the streets became more and more lively.

In the Central District, Su Yue and her mother held hands and went shopping in the bustling commercial street. Both of them were already carrying a lot of things.

Su Yue's father, Su Chen, had left Rongcheng early due to business matters.

The original plan was to stay with her daughter for two days, but the plan could not keep up with the change. Su Chen stayed for one day and hurried back to Yuwan Town.

Zheng Qiuyi wanted to stay with her daughter for a few more days, so she did not return to Yuwan Town with her husband.

"Mom, let's go shopping in the shopping mall over there. I remember there seems to be a clothing store selling men's clothing over there. Let's buy some clothes for Dad..." Su Yue pointed to the other side of the street and said.

Zheng Qiuyi looked in the direction pointed by her daughter's finger and saw a shopping plaza with a musical fountain across the street. She nodded with a smile.

Although Zheng Qiuyi and Su Yue are mother and daughter, time has not left any traces on Zheng Qiuyi's face, which makes her look like a young woman in her thirties.

At this time, she and Su Yue were chatting and laughing while shopping arm in arm. The passers-by who were attracted by them on the road thought that the two were sisters.

Some of them were so confident that they wanted to strike up a conversation and ask for their contact information.

…………

After Lin Li had dinner, he did not stay at home. He drove a van to the central district of Rongcheng.

In the afternoon, Lin Li saw an advertisement for a game arcade in the Central District on TV.

This newly opened game arcade is offering a big discount for its opening. In the past few days, game coins are discounted by 30%. This discount is not small!

From the TV commercial, you can see that there are quite a lot of various game consoles in this game arcade.

It's been a while since I went to a game arcade. After seeing this advertisement, Lin Li planned to go to this newly opened game arcade after dinner when the sun went down and it wasn't so hot outside.

After parking the van, Lin Li left the parking lot, crossed the road, and quickly headed to the Musical Fountain Square across the street.

The newly opened game arcade is diagonally opposite the musical fountain.

"Hello, beauty, please give me your contact information and make friends!"

"Young people, my daughter is about the same age as you. You are chatting with the wrong person..."

"ah?!!!"

"Beauty, your joke is too outrageous. We just want a contact information. If you refuse, don't make such outrageous excuses...!!!"

Lin Li was about to walk to the newly opened game hall diagonally opposite the musical fountain. When passing by the musical fountain, he saw a slim woman next to the musical fountain being beaten by five young men in their mid-twenties. Men surrounded.

"Eh?!!!"

Originally, Lin Li didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but when he saw the face of the slim woman surrounded, he immediately stopped with a surprised expression on his face.

"I'm not kidding you. If you want to strike up a conversation, go find other girls..." The slim woman had a look of helplessness on her face.

"Beauty, don't be like this! Give us your contact information and we can talk later. If we can't become friends, you can just block us when the time comes..." Several young people pestered her.

Just when the slim woman was about to scold the young men in front of her with a straight face, a voice came from her side.

"Aunt Zheng? Aunt Zheng Qiuyi...?!!!"

Zheng Qiuyi heard someone calling her name. She turned her head and looked sideways. When she saw that the person calling her name turned out to be her daughter's friend, she said in surprise, "Lin Li?!!"

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here, auntie..." Lin Li came to Zheng Qiuyi and turned to look at the young men who were pestering Zheng Qiuyi, "Auntie, who are these people?"

Zheng Qiuyi said nothing and looked at the young men who asked for her contact information.

"..." The young men who were pestering Zheng Qiuyi for her contact information had shocked expressions on their faces when they heard Lin Li calling Zheng Qiuyi her aunt.

Then, they recalled what Zheng Qiuyi had said before. They originally thought that the other party was joking, but at this moment, it was confirmed.

Then, these young men showed embarrassed expressions on their faces, and then they left quickly.

"Young people today!" Zheng Qiuyi sighed as she watched the young men who pestered her and asked for their contact information leave in despair.

Lin Li didn't think it was surprising that Su Yue's mother, who looked like her sister, would encounter such a situation where she was asking for contact information.

"Auntie, are you alone?" Lin Li asked doubtfully.

Zheng Qiuyi shook her head, "There is also Xiaoyue! She went to the milk tea shop to buy milk tea. I'm waiting for her here..."

"Oh." Lin Li nodded, and then he didn't know what to say.

"Are you here on a date with your girlfriend?" Zheng Qiuyi blinked and asked seemingly casually. In fact, she was inquiring about Lin Li's situation.

"Auntie, I don't have a girlfriend..."

"That's it! Auntie will introduce you to a girl later. What kind of girl do you like? Tell auntie?"

"Uh... this..." Lin Li didn't expect that Su Yue's mother would actually connect him. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer the question.

"mom……"

"Eh? Lin Li!!!"

Just when Lin Li didn't know how to respond to Zheng Qiuyi's words, the savior finally appeared.

Su Yue, carrying two cups of milk tea in her hands, walked over from a distance. When she saw Lin Li next to her mother, she was very surprised.

"Are you here to buy some milk tea? Why did it take so long to buy it?" Zheng Qiuyi looked at her daughter and asked.

"There was a computer problem in the milk tea shop, and it took the cashier a while to fix it, so it was delayed for so long." Su Yue explained.

"Huh..." Su Yue's arrival interrupted Zheng Qiuyi's inquiry. Lin Li couldn't help but exhale softly, and then felt a lot more relaxed.

Su Yue handed the cup of milk tea she was carrying to her mother, and then looked at Lin Li, "Lin Li, are you here for shopping too?"

Lin Li didn't have much interest in shopping. Now he just wanted to go to the newly opened game arcade to play games.

“No, there’s a new game arcade nearby here that’s opening with great deals and promotions.

Taking advantage of the promotions, I plan to go to that game arcade to play. Lin Li didn't hide anything and said to Su Yue calmly.

"The newly opened game arcade you mentioned, I just passed by when I was shopping with my mother. I took a look inside and there were quite a lot of people in the game arcade..."

"It seems that there are many people like me today who want to take advantage of the discounts and go to that game arcade to play... That's it for now. You and Auntie will continue shopping while I go to that game arcade first. .”

"Um."

"Auntie, I'm leaving first..." When Lin Li left, he said hello to Zheng Qiuyi, who was looking at him with a smile on his face, and then left quickly.

Somehow, with his keen sense, Lin Li felt that Su Yue's mother looked at him in a strange way, which contained a meaning that he could not understand.

This is not to say that Su Yue's mother has any ill intentions towards him. To be honest, it should be said that she is full of goodwill towards herself.

But this kindness was different from the kindness he felt in other people.

Faced with this special kindness, he felt stressed and had a feeling that he had nowhere to put his hands and feet.

After Lin Li walked away, Zheng Qiuyi said to her daughter, "This young man is honest enough. I like it very much..."

"Sincerity?" Su Yue felt a little happy when her mother said she liked Lin Li very much, but she didn't show it on her face.

Then, she looked at her mother with some confusion and asked, "Mom, you have only met Lin Li twice in total. How can you make a judgment so quickly?"

"What's wrong? Isn't he sincere? Is he the kind of person who does one thing on the surface and another behind his back?" Zheng Qiuyi asked with a smile.

"That's not true..." Su Yue shook her head, and at the same time secretly complained to Lin Li who walked away, "This person is just a piece of wood. He can do one thing on the surface but another behind his back. He can't get it."

"Let's go home! I'm a little tired after shopping for so long today." Zheng Qiuyi took out a straw from the bag, took a sip of milk tea, and said to her daughter.

Su Yue nodded, and then she and her mother walked to the street and took a taxi home.

…………

Lin Li said goodbye to Su Yue and Zheng Qiuyi and came to the door of the newly opened game hall. Seeing the crowds in the game hall, he couldn't help but sigh, "There are so many people!"

Seeing so many people in the game hall, Lin Li wanted to leave, but the next second, he felt that he had already come, so he still had to go in and play a few games before leaving.

"Welcome." When Lin Li walked into the game hall, two girls in work clothes standing at the door greeted him with a smile.

Although the faces of the two staff members were full of smiles, Lin Li still felt that their smiles were a bit unnatural, as if they were forcing themselves to smile, and the tiredness between their eyebrows was very obvious.

It's actually normal for this to happen. If you think about it for a moment, you'll understand what's going on.

After all, the new store has just opened. Taking advantage of the promotions, many customers came to the store to play games.

The store owner of the game arcade will definitely require the reception staff to always welcome guests entering the store with a friendly smile.

The request is correct, but the working hours are too long.

From day to night, for more than ten hours, he kept smiling and welcomed customers who entered the store. Most people really can't stay the same all the time.

"Hello, may I ask, is the game currency exchanged in the store now at 30% off the original price?" Lin Li asked the staff standing on the left side of the door before entering the game hall.
