94: Chapter 94
Facts proved that no matter how much you eat, accompanying a girl shopping makes you hungry very quickly.
"Wife, it's almost twelve o'clock. Why don't we find a place to eat first?" This was already the Nth time Chen Sheng had put on a pitiful act to urge her.
However, he was still dragged into a women's clothing store by An Xiaonuan.
Just like the previous clothing store, after An Xiaonuan went in and tried on two pieces with the assistance of the Shop Assistant, and under the gaze of the Shop Assistant who was secretly rolling her eyes to the heavens, An Xiaonuan walked out empty-handed again.
In fact, the expenses for the whole morning of shopping were not even as much as the cost of changing the mobile phone.
Finally, under Chen Sheng's pitiful and helpless expectant gaze, An Xiaonuan relented, "We've looked at so many shops, and the styles are all average. Forget it, let's stop here for today!"
"Really!" Chen Sheng was overjoyed, "That's simply wonderful."
At this moment, he wished he could applaud to celebrate.
Of course, the above were all his inner thoughts; on the surface, he spoke up to comfort her, "We didn't see anything suitable this time, we'll go shopping elsewhere next time."
"I'll take a look at Vipshop online then. How about having small hot pot for lunch? I just saw an all-you-can-eat small hot pot place at the intersection, it looks pretty good."
"Fine! Let's go eat all-you-can-eat small hot pot then." For Chen Sheng, what they ate wasn't important; what was important was that they were going to eat now.
The two arrived at the all-you-can-eat small hot pot at the intersection. At 58.8 yuan per person, it was considered affordable. Chen Sheng scanned the code to pay, received the number plate, and then, led by the Staff Member, they arrived at a small table for two by the window and sat down.
Although it was a small hot pot, a spicy flavor was essential, so An Xiaonuan ordered a mild spicy beef tallow soup base, while Chen Sheng, under An Xiaonuan's forced requirement, reluctantly ordered a mushroom soup base.
Even with a small hot pot, they had to create the visual effect of a mandarin duck hot pot.
After ordering the soup bases, the two each took a tray to pick the dishes they liked to eat. However, when An Xiaonuan returned, besides the dishes that needed to be cooked, she was also holding a portion of all-you-can-eat steak grilled by the restaurant.
"Why do you want to eat steak today?" Chen Sheng asked curiously.
In the past, when eating this kind of buffet, An Xiaonuan would never touch grilled or roasted foods.
According to her explanation, the grilled foods in the buffet lacked the essence of cooking, and as for the steak, she disliked it because she didn't know how long it had been in cold storage.
An Xiaonuan first placed the tray on the floor stand next to them, then placed the steak on the table, and pushed it in front of Chen Sheng, "This is ordered for you. Aren't you always complaining about being hungry? Steak keeps you full."
Chen Sheng: "..."
Should he eat it? Or should he eat it? Or should he eat it?
"Eat more, don't keep complaining about being hungry again in the afternoon, hmph~" When An Xiaonuan said this, she also threateningly raised her hand to show off her little fist.
Chen Sheng resignedly picked up the knife and fork, quickly cut the whole steak into small pieces, and then used chopsticks to dip each piece in black pepper sauce and put it into his mouth.
Must say, black pepper is a perfect match for steak.
The steak was indeed filling.
However, facts proved once again that no matter how much you eat, if you're meant to be hungry, you will be hungry.
In the afternoon, the two drove to the Global Center, heading straight for their destination: the escape room that An Xiaonuan had been recommended N times by her colleagues and friends recently.
Uh~ I can only say this is a brain-taxing activity.
All kinds of wild and disconnected clues left Chen Sheng, who was in the escape room, with a look of clear stupidity in his eyes that he hadn't had in years.
On the contrary, among the players who came in in the same batch, there were a few who clearly still had a look of clear stupidity outside, but once the game started, their eyes were quickly filled with the light of wisdom.
Then, with sparks and lightning all the way, they led everyone through the heavy fog and the chaotic clues, finding the correct answer as if unraveling a cocoon, and completed the clearance.
Clap clap clap clap~
There should definitely be applause here.
Chen Sheng, whose brain had turned into a puddle of paste, mixed into the crowd and mechanically applauded for the person who led them to victory.
However, this escape room really did have very high playability; it was worthy of being a play project recommended many times.
It's just that the aftereffect is a bit strong.
So strong that for the rest of the afternoon, during dinner, watching the movie, and until they returned home, An Xiaonuan was still enthusiastically discussing the plot clues.
And the only thing Chen Sheng felt was tired.
So much so that before ten o'clock, he honestly lay on the bed and quickly entered dreamland, sleeping until nine o'clock the next morning before slowly waking up.
Glancing at the empty spot next to him and guessing that An Xiaonuan had already gone to work by herself, Chen Sheng turned over, closed his eyes again, and when he woke up again, it was already close to twelve o'clock.
"F*ck!" Looking at the time on the phone screen, Chen Sheng sat up abruptly. Today, there were still important things that needed to be handled.
Quickly putting on his clothes and rushing to the bathroom, he silently recited in his heart: "Open system panel."
host: Chen Sheng
Level: Level 1
Upgrade Experience Points: 56 / 100
Unread Intelligence Count: 2
Arriving at the bathroom, he first used hand sanitizer to thoroughly clean his hands, used a towel to wipe the water dry, and then rubbed his hands vigorously until they felt hot. Only then did Chen Sheng click on the unread intelligence.
【Daily Intelligence 1: Today is the last day of the grand opening promotion at Ai Shang Digital on the third floor of the Digital City. The first twenty customers to arrive at the store all have eligibility for a lucky draw. The highest prize is a new Apple mobile phone, and the prize ticket has been artificially stuck to the top of the lucky draw box with double-sided tape.】
"Hiss~" After reading this intelligence, Chen Sheng's cheeks twitched involuntarily, "System! Are you really trying to treat me like a fool!"
He dared not imagine if he went to Ai Shang Digital again and drew the grand prize, whether the boss would pull out a watermelon knife on the spot and chase him for three streets.
Isn't this just wrecking the place!
"System! I beg you to act like a human!" Chen Sheng said powerlessly.
He moved his gaze down.
【Daily Intelligence 2: Lvyuan Old Clothing Recycling in the East City is collecting a batch of old clothes today. Among this batch of old clothes, one blue casual jacket has a forgotten USB flash drive in its inner lining pocket. The hidden folder inside this USB flash drive contains a string of Bitcoin keys. Log in to the website, enter the corresponding key, and you can obtain 2 Bitcoins.】
【Remark 1: The arrival time of this batch of old clothes is 17:23, and the processing time for this batch of old clothes is 19:30.】
【Remark 2: The address of Lvyuan Old Clothing Recycling in the East City is No. XX, XX Street, XX District.】
"What the heck? Bitcoin?" Chen Sheng widened his eyes.
He quickly rushed out of the bathroom, dashed into the bedroom, grabbed his phone, quickly opened the browser, and entered Bitcoin price in the search box.
As he clicked confirm, the information that popped up almost made Chen Sheng's eyeballs pop out of their sockets.
"F*ck! F*ck!" Looking at the current Bitcoin price on the screen of 7,909.02$, for a second, Chen Sheng wanted to smash his phone hard on the ground to vent the excitement in his heart.
That was 7,909.02$, which converts to about 56,000 ¥. Two of them would be 110,000. This... I can only say that the system gave too much this time, making him feel a bit dizzy.
After a while, Chen Sheng, who had barely calmed down, sighed: "As expected, you have to rub your hands before opening a blind box!"
