Chapter 97 - 89: Old Town Story
"Going to the bathroom... how come I can’t even see a shadow now?"
Twenty minutes later, Gu Shen realized something was wrong.
He made a trip to the bathroom and confirmed that Song Ci had fled after peeing; it was empty.
"That damn turtle without any honor, bullying me because I am an out-of-towner?"
Gu Shen was so annoyed his teeth itched, he went back to the noodle shop to pay the bill, and saw the skinny, tall owner wearing a towel around his neck, sitting on a wooden stool, smiling and gazing into the distance... Gu Shen then realized... this owner had been maintaining this posture for quite a while.
"Boss, time to settle the bill."
The skinny tall owner heard the sound, but seemed to ignore it, only slowly turning his head toward Gu Shen with a nod and a smile.
This boss... seems... not very bright?
"Two big bowls, with extra meat, eggs, and braised gluten, right? Thirty-six yuan, plus the alcohol, a total of forty-four, small business, strictly no credit." The sound of footsteps came from the second floor of the shop, as the boss’s wife hurried downstairs, looked at the empty seat, and frowned, "You’re the friend brought by Crow, this kid finished eating and ran off alone again?"
Again?
