CHAPTER 697: CHAPTER 697: AWKWARD...

Facing the pettiness of the Rag Queen, weak chicken didn’t dare to express anger, only hanging his head down, waiting for her to vent enough.

Of course, he also wanted to just log off and slip away. I mean, the world is so big, could she possibly pluck him out from the vast ocean of people?

Impossible.

If worse comes to worst, weak chicken could just abandon this smurf account.

But——

Thinking of the female tyrant’s current identity—as one of the only two vendors at the Green Glaze Master Shop.

weak chicken’s eyeballs rolled around as he weighed the pros and cons, deciding to suffer in silence. Who knows, maybe he could cozy up to this one and get some insider info, right?

If he could get close enough to buy a Soul Device from the arena, that would be even better.

So, when Dang Jiyou released weak chicken from the blacklist and once again glared at him, demanding that he continue to send her friend requests——

weak chicken, despite appearing helpless, still obediently complied as told.

After weak chicken had sent the request, he peered at Ji You’s expression and said softly, "Queen, can we stop throwing rotten eggs, please? How could such a handsome guy like me be pelted with rotten eggs?"

Ji You, with a slanted look at his stooped figure and twinkling little eyes, cursed: "Go look in the mirror, don’t sully the reputation of rotten eggs! They are far prettier than you."

weak chicken: "..."

Ji You didn’t have the time to joke around with him. This time, she directly accepted weak chicken’s friend request and threatened, "Dare to block me again, and you know what will happen."

weak chicken: "..."

weak chicken murmured quietly, "I don’t know, wah."

Ji You: "Hmm?"

The Big Chopper in her hand gleamed with a chilling light.

weak chicken shrank his neck and said weakly, "I know..."

Ji You: "Hmph!"

At this point, all the activities in the shop had ended, and the gathered crowd was gradually leaving, with only a small group of people still hopeful, wanting to see if there were any Easter eggs.

However, Cheng Yu and Ji You, the two vendors, quickly clarified that there were no more Soul Devices.

Master?

It was impossible for the Master to appear.

...

The lingering crowd finally left the Qingyou Shop with disappointment and regret.

Ji You held onto weak chicken without letting go, and just as she was about to interrogate him after finishing all the store’s business, suddenly, she received a letter from Cheng Yu.

This letter was a complaint letter.

It was specially addressed to the Green Glaze Master by Cheng Yu to complain about Ji You.

Cough cough...

During today’s store event, both vendors worked together nicely, one in charge of sales and the other maintaining order. It was all very harmonious, but!!!

The moment the third prize winner came to receive their reward, Ji You, because of her personal grudge with the individual, made the shop’s atmosphere quite awkward. Cheng Yu had to forcibly save face to resolve the awkwardness.

...

All in all, Cheng Yu felt that his colleague wasn’t very reliable. If these kinds of issues kept happening, what then?

Cheng Yu himself had no objection to the new colleague, but!!! This was about the reputation of the shop, the reputation of Green Glaze Master... He would not allow any other mistakes to occur.

Therefore, it was necessary to write a sincere letter to remind the Master.

After Cheng Yu had sent it to the Master, he made a slight modification to the content of the letter and then forwarded it to Ji You before turning to his somewhat unreliable colleague, saying, "Rag buddy, regarding your issue, I have reported to the Master very straightforwardly, without any exaggeration. I hope you take it as a warning and in the future, consider the shop’s and Master’s reputation in everything you do and say."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You frowned, not because of Cheng Yu’s ’Rag buddy’ spicy nickname, but because she actually received her own complaint letter.

Someone complained to her about herself!

Cough cough...

Is she living in a fantasy novel?

Ji You, with her hair all disheveled by the wind, looked oddly bewildered...

For a moment, Cheng Yu was a bit puzzled.

The weak chicken beside him instantly shrank his neck, trying hard to minimize his presence to avoid any misdirected anger.

...

What to do?

Ji You, with a stern face and furrowed brows, thought it over and over, considering that Cheng Yu was the talent she had specifically hired, knowledgeable, quick-witted, full of marketing skills, and wholeheartedly protecting her and the shop. Most importantly, cheap!

Where else could she find such affordable talent?

So, Ji You, with a frowned brow, personally wrote a punishment notice for herself.

The content was roughly that the Green Glaze Master deducted Ji You’s sales wages for this time: 1000 credit points.

Ji You handed the punishment notice to Cheng Yu, who cleared his throat and said, "Cough cough... Rag Student, I hope you don’t take this to heart, I will give you half of my wages for this time."

Upon hearing this, Ji You felt embarrassed and quickly said, "No, no, no... This is the hard-earned money of big brother Ah Da, how can I take it? Besides, I did indeed pay too little attention to the impact this time."

No matter what, Ji You just wouldn’t accept the money.

Joking aside, she had hired teacher Cheng Yu because he was cheap. What if one day he fell from grace and suddenly remembered this...

Not only had she conned him into working for her at a bargain price, but she would also have dipped into his hard-earned money...

Cough cough...

She couldn’t afford to lose this cover.

Ji You once again firmed up her resolution.

On one side, finally having persuaded Cheng Yu, who then logged off, Ji You immediately grabbed the weak chicken, trying to slip away.

Weak chicken: "..."

The weak chicken complained bitterly, "Queen, I beg your magnanimity, please let me go."

Ji You hummed, "Did you see that I just had my wages deducted by the Master?"

The weak chicken’s pupils shrank, and his head shook like a bobblehead: "No! No! I didn’t hear anything! I didn’t see anything!"

Ji You: "You saw it."

The weak chicken denied: "No! No, definitely not!"

Ji You: "You saw it!"

The weak chicken understood that he was being forced to admit it. He held his face sadly and was heartbroken: "Yingyingying~ I did see it, but now I’m blind."

Ji You said with a smile: "I am the future ruler who will stand atop the World’s Peak, but now you know a big secret about me."

Pfft!

Having wages deducted, what big secret is that?

She was just being unreasonable!

But! The weak chicken dared not express his anger, only able to say pitifully, "Queen, I’m truly blind, rest assured, I won’t talk too much."

Ji You narrowed her eyes: "The living can’t keep secrets."

Weak chicken: "..."

Ji You raised her hand, patted the weak chicken’s shoulder, and said, "Choose, death? Or life?"

Weak chicken: "..."

Damn it!

So annoying!

How can there be such shameless people in this world?

Catching a glimpse of the weak chicken on the verge of exploding from the corner of her eye, Ji You decided to cash in, and went straight to the point: "I’ll ask you one question, and if you answer me honestly, I’ll let you go."

The weak chicken blinked: "Please ask."

Ji You inquired: "What is your Spiritual Level? When we were in the arena, how did you manage to use your spiritual power to silently interfere with others?"

Upon hearing this, the weak chicken pursed his lips: "That... that’s clearly two questions."

Ji You, clenching her Big Chopper: "Hmm?"

The weak chicken, scared, his shoulders shrank, "Haha... I must have heard wrong, it’s one question."
