10: Don't come over here! ! ! ! !

Worker Meng, accompanied by three maintenance personnel, got out of the car with a reluctant expression.

From a distance, he caught a whiff of the astonishing stench, and his face immediately contorted in discomfort.

“Sigh, this public restroom is usually in good condition, why did it suddenly explode?”

One of the maintenance personnel scratched his head and couldn't help but explain,

“Worker Meng, public restrooms don't explode. It's probably a broken or leaking sewer pipe.”

Worker Meng was instantly amused and annoyed.

“Don't I know that? Do I need you to tell me? Besides, with such a terrible smell, how is it any different from actually exploding?”

“…”

The maintenance worker was speechless and could only quicken his pace to catch up with his colleagues, heading towards the public restroom.

However, when they rounded the corner ahead, what they saw was not a scene of sewage overflowing.

Instead, it was three high school students next to the public restroom, eagerly snatching stinky tofu from their bowls.

Worker Meng looked at the anxious and urgent expressions on their faces, momentarily lost in a daze, almost thinking he saw the three Labrador pigs he kept at home.

The scene was too beautiful; it was a bit of an eyesore.

He shivered, quickly averted his gaze, and looked at a small cart selling stinky tofu nearby.

And behind the cart, a handsome young man was constantly wiping the counter with his head down, a stiff smile plastered on his face.

For some reason, Worker Meng's mind inexplicably conjured the image of the young man's toes frantically digging into the dirt on the ground.

At this moment, a maintenance worker pointed to the clean and bright public restroom, his face full of confusion.

“Didn't they say the public restroom exploded? What's going on now?”

Worker Meng and the other two maintenance personnel looked at the intact public restroom, then at the strange yet heartwarming scene beside it, and shook their heads in silence.

“…”

The maintenance worker spoke again, uncertainly.

“So, the public restroom didn't explode?”

Worker Meng and the other two maintenance personnel exchanged glances and continued to shake their heads.

“…”

The maintenance worker shifted his gaze to the small cart, a little doubtful of reality.

“So, it's this stinky tofu that's emitting the smell?”

Worker Meng and the other two maintenance personnel's expressions began to twist.

“…”

At this point, that maintenance worker also fell silent.

All four of them became silent.

Of course, sometimes silence doesn't mean there's nothing to say.

On the contrary, they had a lot to complain about right now.

But for a moment, they didn't know where to start.

So... Worker Meng narrowed his eyes, looking at the harmonious yet bizarre scene before him, his inner self roaring furiously to the sky.

Selling f*cking stinky tofu next to a f*cking public restroom, what f*cking genius came up with this f*cking idea?

And why is this stinky tofu so f*cking stinky?

Are you sure it's not a biochemical weapon developed by some country?

Also, also, why are these three students still snatching it so happily in such a stinky situation?

So God, are they crazy, or are we crazy?

Lu Chuan had long noticed Worker Meng and the other three.

And through their attire and the machinery they were carrying, he guessed that they were probably staff from the management office.

Could it be that the stinky tofu was so smelly that passersby thought the public restroom had exploded, so they reported it to the management office for emergency repairs... Thinking of this, Lu Chuan couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

Because of him, they were forced to work overtime late at night; they must be very depressed right now... Although he was also tricked by the system... Lu Chuan, being kind-hearted, still felt a bit embarrassed.

How about treating them to stinky tofu?

Lu Chuan thought for a moment, then simply called out to the four of them:

“Want some stinky tofu? It's delicious.”

---

Worker Meng and the other three, who were still in a daze, snapped back to reality when they heard Lu Chuan's call.

Almost instinctively, all four frantically shook their heads and hands.

No, absolutely not!!!

Is stinky tofu that emits such a smell really suitable for human consumption?

Wouldn't you die if you ate it?!

You'd definitely die, right?!!

Right? Am I right?!!!

Seeing Worker Meng and the others desperately refuse, Lu Chuan didn't insist.

However, at this moment, Qi Yuan, Li Qihong, and Zeng Yucheng were not happy.

After tasting Lu Chuan's tofu, they unanimously agreed that it was absolutely the most delicious food in the world!

Yet, their precious stinky tofu was regarded as a monster by these four guys?

Damn it!

The three exchanged glances and immediately made a decision.

They absolutely had to let them taste the deliciousness of this stinky tofu, to let them know how terribly wrong they were!

Li Qihong and Zeng Yucheng, like soldiers in a lost battle, solemnly handed their last ammunition to Qi Yuan.

And Qi Yuan received it with both hands, then resolutely turned around, like a true warrior, dashing towards the stubborn enemies.

“?!”

However, the sight of Qi Yuan running over with the bowl made Worker Meng and the other three's scalps tingle.

Especially seeing the bowl of incredibly smelly stinky tofu getting closer and closer.

They could even see a skull floating in the plastic bowl, cackling maniacally at them.

Don't come over!!!!!!!!! (Image missing)

Worker Meng and the other three's eyes were bloodshot, and they almost simultaneously reached out, trying to stop Qi Yuan from approaching.

No, I will never allow anyone to slander this super-duper explosively delicious stinky tofu!!!

Qi Yuan looked at the four collapsing figures, gritted his teeth, and quickened his steps.

In the end, he almost sprinted a hundred meters, darting in front of the four.

“Eat this!!!”

With his years of practiced chopstick mastery, Qi Yuan wielded his chopsticks so fast they blurred, stuffing a piece of stinky tofu into each of the four's mouths.

“Ugh!” “Ugh!” “Ugh!” “Ugh!”

Almost simultaneously, all four let out a retch.

But very quickly, the four's expressions changed simultaneously.

The next moment, their cheeks began to move, and they kept making various indistinct sounds.

“Hmm?” “Huh?” “Oh?” “Eh?”

Seeing this, Qi Yuan turned his back with satisfaction and gave a victory sign to Li Qihong and Zeng Yucheng.

This... this is acceptable... Lu Chuan's stiff smile almost couldn't hold, he quickly lowered his head, picked up a rag, and continued to wipe the sparkling counter, using it to hide his embarrassment.

“Boss, it's already very clean.”

“Uh, I think there's still some dust here.”

“Really, Boss, it's very clean, no need to wipe anymore.”

“I'll wipe again... Hmm?”

Lu Chuan noticed something was off and quickly looked up.

He found that Worker Meng and the other three had, at some point, arrived at the stall.

And at this moment, Worker Meng seemed like a changed person, his voice even softer.

“Boss, how much is a large portion of stinky tofu?”

“Don't... uh, 30 yuan.”

Lu Chuan originally wanted to say he'd treat them, but once his eyes met the fervent gazes of Worker Meng and the other three, his scalp inexplicably tingled, and he blurted out the price without thinking.

Worker Meng nodded. Seeing that there was no QR code for payment displayed on the cart, he pulled out a crisp bill and a 50 yuan note from his pocket.

“Boss, four bowls of stinky tofu, large portions.”

“Alright.”

Lu Chuan took the money with a special money clip and then clipped three 10 yuan notes from the cash box and handed them back.

Then he quickly bent down, opened the sealed box, and counted out the corresponding number of stinky tofu blocks.

“Ugh!” “Ugh!” “Ugh!” “Ugh!”

Again, four simultaneous retches.

“Uh…”

Lu Chuan's hand paused, a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly pretended to be unfazed, straightened up, and began frying the stinky tofu.
