Apocalypse: I have a supermarket stocked with supplies-Chapter 261: Always have to do business

Chapter 261: Always have to do business

“If I’d known he was a broke joke, I wouldn’t have carried him back.”

I worked my butt off to haul him here, all to help Galaxy scavenge more Crystal Cores.

But no, turned out, the guy was flat broke.

Not only was he broke, but he also had the nerve to mooch food and drinks every day.

How could he have the face to do that?

Lin Murong thought he was absolutely shameless.

And he didn’t hesitate to voice strong criticism.

But the boss didn’t take it to heart, he didn’t care what Lin Murong thought of him.

As long as he had food, he was fine.

In the apocalypse, having thick skin was a good thing, similarly, others’ opinions mattered even less.

No matter how much Lin Murong despised him, the boss simply refused to leave.

“You can stay, but at least you’re a Superpower User; go get some Crystal Cores to trade for supplies. Galaxy runs a supermarket, not a charity,” was all but directly spelled out by Lin Murong.

The boss hesitated for a moment, then decisively shook his head.

“Not going? Why? You’re a grown man, don’t you feel embarrassed freeloading?”

“I’m not going. I’m scared. I don’t feel embarrassed.” Why would I feel embarrassed?

Why should anyone feel embarrassed?

Does anyone still care about losing face these days?

Oh my gosh, there’s actually someone who cares, feels embarrassed.

Unlike him; he never says he feels embarrassed.

Shameless as the boss, even Lin Murong, usually so shameless himself, felt inferior.

He just couldn’t stand it, there was someone even more shameless than he was.

The boss was a man who took shamelessness to the extreme.

Just squatting in the supermarket, scamming meals and drinks.

Risking a beating.

But the boss felt it was worth it.

“Nonsense, how is it not worth it? Look at how much you’ve eaten. It’s only because Galaxy is so kind. If it were me, I’d have thrown you out to the zombies long ago.” Lin Murong was very dissatisfied with him and didn’t miss the chance to lash out whenever he could.

The boss just let it go in one ear and out the other.

Pretending he didn’t hear.

Continuing to eat and eat and eat.

He’d only been at the supermarket for a few days, but he’d already gained quite a bit of weight.

All from eating.

And all thanks to Su Yinhe.

He thought Su Yinhe was a good person, a really good person, and liked to butter her up with sweet nothings because whenever Su Yinhe felt happy, she would treat him to food.

His time wasn’t worth much, it was completely spent on praising Su Yinhe.

His main strategy was simple: fawning.

Lin Murong felt disgusted upon hearing it, but Su Yinhe quite liked it.

She thought the boss was very skilled at compliments and enjoyed them a lot.

He might not be good for much, but he knew how to flatter people.

“Galaxy, judging a person isn’t just about whether they can flatter or not,” Lin Murong was earnestly trying to educate her.

“I’m not looking,” Su Yinhe raised her index finger, waving it in the air, “I’m listening,” and then pointed at her ears.

“What’s the difference?” Lin Murong didn’t understand.

“Look and listen are two different words, there’s a big difference, okay?”

Lin Murong: “…”

Was that what he was trying to say?

Was it?

“Galaxy, you… you actually take his side?” Lin Murong asked Su Yinhe, pointing at the boss, feeling like his heart was breaking.

“Can’t help it, he speaks nicer than you do, who else should I side with?” Su Yinhe replied as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Lin Murong felt his heart break, and then it split in two.

His heart, shattered to pieces.

Lin Murong felt emo.

The boss’s face blossomed into a big smile.

Although the leader really wanted to keep loafing around in the supermarket, it was obviously not feasible; after all, he was still the leader of a base.

Though he was a useless leader, he still had to return to take charge of things.

Even if it was just to serve as a mascot.

The leader reluctantly headed back, and when leaving, he even took several packs of instant noodles with him.

Lin Murong cursed furiously.

“Galaxy, look at him, look at him, this idiot, taking stuff from the supermarket without asking—that’s stealing.” Beat this little thief to death.

Lin Murong was itching for action, just waiting for Su Yinhe’s word to chase down the leader.

And give him a good beating.

This leader, he’s even cheaper than him.

And shameless.

Su Yinhe: “Enough already. If you’re bored, go mop the floor for me.” Su Yinhe didn’t even feel like scolding him anymore.

Lin Murong sullenly counted his fingers, “But I don’t want to mop the floor; I just want to beat someone up.”

Su Yinhe: “…”

“Forget it. Keep thinking like that and I’ll throw you out.”

The leader went back, back to Goldfish Base.

Su Yinhe thought he wouldn’t come again and was about to move the supermarket away when he returned with a crowd of people.

“Boss, didn’t you say you wanted to do business? I’ve brought all the customers to you. See if you’re satisfied.”

Su Yinhe: “…”

Great, now not only is he freeloading, but he’s also thinking of bringing so many others to mooch?

Su Yinhe felt a darkness before her eyes.

Fortunately, the leader wasn’t shameless to that extent.

The people he brought, although they didn’t have Crystal Cores, were willing to go kill zombies and dig Crystal Cores.

With so many people working, the leader took a look and felt he could continue to slack off.

So he continued, lying in the supermarket, living off others.

His rationale was they would help out. They wouldn’t let the base leader starve to death.

They would surely help him repay his debt.

Su Yinhe: “…”

That thought was pretty brazen.

She actually had no retort.

Su Yinhe felt exhausted.

Doing business with them was also exhausting.

“Galaxy, I told you, we knew he was a penniless wretch from the start; we should have thrown him out instead of listening to his flattery. Look how shameless he is now, actually bringing a bunch of penniless wretches over.” Lin Murong was furious.

“What you said makes sense, but it’s too late now. They’re here; business has to be done.” Su Yinhe said listlessly.

“Throw them out, Galaxy, I can help you with that, toss him out, and then you quickly move the supermarket.” Lin Murong thought it more feasible the more he considered it.

Su Yinhe: “You really hate him that much, huh?”

Theoretically speaking, what Lin Murong was proposing wasn’t impossible.

But Su Yinhe wasn’t too keen on moving.

She now had a heart of kindness.

They were out digging through zombie skulls for her. Were they doing it purely for her sake? No, they wanted to trade for supplies.

If she moved the supermarket now, wouldn’t their efforts be in vain?

She couldn’t do that.

Su Yinhe shared her thoughts.

Lin Murong was stunned.

“Galaxy, you, you, you… at a time like this, you still have kindness. Too strong, mine was snatched away by a dog long ago.” Lin Murong gave her a thumbs up.

Su Yinhe wasn’t very keen on Lin Murong’s praise.

She gave a perfunctory smile.

“Hehehe…”

“Why are you laughing like that? Were you born unable to smile?” Lin Murong was on alert.

Su Yinhe: “…Exactly, exactly, I was born unable to smile. Come over and let me hit you; I’ll be happy then, and I’ll smile.”

Lin Murong ran away in horror.

“What kind of person is that—happy just by the thought of hitting me?”
