Humanoid Machines [Unlimited] Section 214
There is no more pleasing compliment for her as a chef.
The boss didn't speak again, but his eyebrows and eyes were obviously slightly raised, which was a very excited look. She hummed a song from her hometown, and as she picked up the plate, her eyes fell on the sun-scorched white sand beach outside the glass door in the distance. As if he just casually said, "The sun is still very strong now, you can rest for a while and then go out to see the sea, you can blow the air conditioner for a while." β
In fact, no matter how big the sun outside is, it will have no effect on Yuan Yuxue.
But he loved the atmosphere of the store.
Or the sweet aroma of cooked coconut milk, and the smell of fresh pastries that come out of the air, all appear in the shop. So Yuan Yuxue still sat on the stool, seemed to have a straighter back, and thanked the boss, "Thank you." β
With the dinner plate, he returned to the boss in the kitchen at the back of the counter, and when he came out again, he was holding a plate of coconut milk ice cream in his hand.
The shape of the ice cream is extremely round and loose, and the two milk balls that have just been beaten are sprinkled with some dried coconut chips, drizzled with a little golden honey, and a small egg cone is added to make the shape.
In air conditioning, ice cream doesn't melt so easily, but it still has a strong appeal.
Yuan Yuxue's gaze looked over very secretly-
The ears, buried under the soft black hair, seemed to be slightly erected.
But because of his lack of money, he only glanced at the ice cream briefly, and then withdrew his gaze very quickly. But it was still noticed by the shopkeeper who was always paying attention.
The boss couldn't help but smile.
She felt that this young rookie player had something like the kitten on the campus that she would feed a lot before she entered the survival game.
Every time I bring the canned food, once the sound of the can is heard, the kitten will always be very keenly pricked up ears to look over, but it is arrogant and unwilling to come over like other kittens to be coquettish and clingy, just look at her, and wait for a hurry, only to come over and "meow" very coquettishly.
All in all, her desire to feed was indeed high.
What's more, this was originally taken out by her and prepared to be given to this newcomer.
The plate, which still had a little fine frost, fell back in front of Yuan Yuxue.
The sweet smell of coconut milk ice cream rushed to his face, and before Yuan Yuxue could speak, the boss had already replied, "This is also for you." β
Yuan Xuxue's dark eyes seemed to be slightly rounded at that moment, like the eyes of a cat after being shocked.
But he was only so surprised for a moment. His eyes wandered over the two ice creams as if he was hesitant, and then he asked stubbornly, "But you've already invited me to a coconut drink." β
"It doesn't seem like a giveaway for every new guest," he said. β
That's not true.
After all, she didn't come to do charity - the shopkeeper, who was not good at lying, looked at Yuan Yuxue's slightly upward gaze, and hesitated slightly.
She's always embarrassed to say directly, because you seem to like the food I make, so I feel like I'm being touted and feel very comfortable.
- It's hard to say, but you have a bit of a presumptuous reason like the kitten I fed before.
After a pause, she continued, "I just kind of want to take a nap, so I'm looking for someone to help me β you look after the store for me, and if there are any customers coming, come and call me on the second floor." As for this plate of ice cream, how about hiring you? β
Of course, there will be some shops in the safe zone that hire players.
It's just that the player's salary, which is usually higher than expected.
The price of this plate of coconut milk ice cream is only one point, and a player can definitely not be hired for one point in the middle of the day.
However, her shop is really idle, and according to the current situation, there will definitely be no new customers, saying that she hired Yuan Yuxue to help look after the store, but in fact, it is just to let him rest in the store for a while when the sun is the most poisonous.
Such a deal is also quite fair.
What's more, she is also confident that Yuan Yuxue will never refuse her request.
It's really Yuan Yuxue who is looking at the plate of coconut milk ice cream now, and even makes the boss feel that if he takes the plate away now, it should be an extremely bad behavior of bullying small animals-
"Okay."
Yuan Yuxue really agreed.
His eyes were slightly brighter on the coconut milk ice cream with a hint of frosting.
The corners of the boss's lips were very secretly curved, and then he walked into the backstage with nothing to do, and it was rare to go to "take a nap".
The curtain that had been used to cover the door was blocked, obscuring the sound of footsteps.
And Yuan Yuxue also picked up the cold metal spoon and scooped a spoonful of coconut milk ice cream.
The rich milky flavor and coconut flavor melt in the mouth, and it is a richer and smoother flavor than the special coconut milk.
The ice cream melts quickly in the warm mouth, and the little honey on top does not make it look too sweet, but reflects the aroma even more.
Anyway, Yuan Yuxue is very sweet, so I don't think anything is wrong at all.
The coconut chips are also very microscopic and crispy, and the texture that breaks in the mouth is rich. The cone is fluffy and has a slightly swelling burnt aroma.
Yuan Yuxue ate it quickly, and had already sent the ice cream ball into her stomach before it began to melt.
He narrowed his eyes slightly contentedly.
After putting away the ice cream plate, Yuan Yuxue sat in the store and looked at the store.
As the boss expected, at this point, there is really no business in the store. Yuan Xuxue sat at the door, which was equivalent to resting inside.
He saw through the transparent glass door the turquoise waters of the beach, wave after wave rushing up, opening a layer of foam and spray.
Probably because the sun was so poisonous, most of the players who came to play were already unable to stay on the beach, but went into the sea to surf and play.
He sat in the doorway with his hands on his hands, and suddenly heard a discussion in the distance outside the door.
Because the content of the discussion is related to this small shop, Yuan Yuxue, who is extremely sensitive to the ability to capture information, listened to it.
Two middle-aged men were talking.
They were the clerks who came to deliver the coconuts, but the cart used to transport the coconuts on the road broke down, so they had to move all the way with two people, which was really tiring. There is a discussion of a person staying here, and sending someone to inform the owner of the small shop that she will come and carry the coconutsβ
This is indeed extremely hard physical work. It's also because of the setting that all talents and items are disabled in the safe zone, even players who seem to be quite omnipotent in the dungeon still have to worry about physical labor in the safe zone.
Yuan Yuxue glanced behind him silently, and behind the curtain, it was his "boss" who was taking a nap.
Considering that she had now become a hired clerk, Yuan Yuxue stood up quite consciously and walked in the direction of the two people who delivered coconuts.
The two middle-aged men who were sweating profusely from the scorching heat also had slightly dark skin. Their bodies are not very strong, so the coconuts who have moved all the way are also tired and panicked, which will hold a layer of unsmooth anger in their hearts, and their faces are not good-looking when Yuan Xuxue, a young man whose obvious appearance characteristics are different from the permanent players here, suddenly walked over, he was stunned for a moment.
Yuan Yuxue looked at the sack of coconuts they were holding in their hands and a large part of them were dragging on the ground, and wanted to reach out and take itβ
The other party was still stunned, and he didn't realize what Yuan Yuxue was here to do.
Yuan Yuxue's hand was already on the mouth of the sack.
The contrast between the slender and white fingers and the coarse linen is a bit large.
The two didn't let go, Yuan Yuxue raised her eyes slightly, and her black pupils looked extremely beautiful in the sun, like some kind of gem, "I'm an employee of that cold noodle shop, didn't you need an employee to come and carry the coconuts because the cart was broken?" β
"I'm coming." He said.
Both of them were a little stunned and didn't react, "We haven't sent someone to inform you yet, how do you know......"
Yuan Yuxue said, "I heard it over there." β
This made the two of them look a little embarrassed? Are they talking that loud? I heard it from afar......
When he saw that Yuan Yuxue was about to lift the two sacks alone, the man mistakenly thought that he might not know how many coconuts were in the sacks, and hurriedly asked for a hand.
The weight of those solid fruits is definitely not light. He was afraid that he would be able to break the boy's wrist all at once.
They also saw that Yuan Xuxue's figure was really not strong.
Just looking at the thin wrist, I was embarrassed to throw all the workload to such a young man as a coolie, but I was embarrassed to leave like this.
They said, "Just put a hand on the side, and we'll get this bag of coconuts over first......
"No need." As they spoke, Yuan Yuxue somehow had already taken the sack thoroughly, and even lifted it up one by one - his wrists, which looked so thin, were not crushed by such a heavy weight. It even looks very lightweight.
The arm that should be strained does not have a clear shape, and it looks like it is not very strained. I could only see the sleeves of his shirt slipping down, revealing a pale wrist, which was simply white and dazzling in the sun, and the blood vessels were clearly visible.
It was as if the coconuts had been unloaded, and he just carried two empty sacks, so easily lifted them up and walked in the direction of the shop.
The contrast with the image of a young man who is clear and weak is too great.
Before the two of them could react, they staggered two steps - Yuan Yuxue said to them politely, "Thank you for sending it here." No need to help. β
Such a small weight is certainly not a burden for a combat robot.
It's just that the two middle-aged men who were dizzy and sweaty from carrying coconuts, as if they were working as hard as coolies, looked at Yuan Xuxue's action of lifting the coconut so easily, it was as if their eyes were about to fall.
There is no way to relate to such a terrifying and monster-like strength, and the image of Yuan Yuxue.
Until Yuan Yuxue walked away, they stood in the scorching sun and began to suspect that they were suffering from heat stroke and hallucinated......
Chapter 221: Safe Zone: City of the Scorching Sun (End)
The boss usually doesn't have the habit of taking a nap, but today he made an excuse at random, but he was really sleepy and slept until the evening.
Outside the window, the sky is full of red clouds, and the sun is like weaving.
She twisted her slightly sore neck, and as she walked down the stairs, it suddenly occurred to her that she had asked a rookie player to help her look after the store today.
It's just that they agreed at noon, and now they have slept until the afternoon.
The pace of going downstairs was a little hurried, and the boss walked to the front store, only to find that the rookie player was still guarding the small store.
Yuan Yuxue sat upright, straightened her back, looked in the direction of the sea, and was very serious about looking at the store.
There are no guests, though.
In this way, it makes the boss feel a little guilty.
Originally, I just wanted Yuan Xuxue to avoid a little big sun and rest for noon, but I overslept, and the good children stayed in the store all afternoon and didn't go out to play for a while.
When the shopkeeper went downstairs, Yuan Yuxue also noticed it, he turned his head slightly and saw the boss stepping forward with two strands of hair upturned.
"Good work." In the boss's tone, there was a slight fluctuation and weakness.
"Nope." Yuan Yuxue got up, her tone was still very serious, "It's what I should do."
Boss: "......"
Guilty.
She doesn't have any good plans to compensate people, and her mindset is extremely straightforward.
After a slight pause, he continued to say with a pleasant face, "It's unfair that I'm the one who made you work for a while longer, and only pay for a bowl of coconut ice cream...... How about another dinner? Our coconut parspard, pan-fried red sausage, and crab roe noodles are also specialised. β
