Chapter 2703 Robbing money
They were going to buy some heavy things today, and since Zheng Ren was having a chat after his surgery, Yiren asked him to come along.
It was almost time to get off work. Zheng Ren changed his clothes and went back to the Department to pack up and look for Xie Yiren.
Zheng Ren did not have to worry about the food and daily needs at home. He would just take the occasional trip to the supermarket as a way to relax. Actually, Zheng Ren was a little embarrassed. All the household chores were left to Yiren, and he was really a hands-off boss.
Therefore, even though he had to face the crowded supermarket today, he agreed without hesitation.
Even though he was prepared to face death, Zheng Ren’s head buzzed the moment he entered the supermarket and he almost fainted.
There were simply too many people. It was so noisy and annoying.
If he wasn’t holding Yiren’s hand, Zheng Ren would have turned around and left without any hesitation. As for what he wanted to buy, he had long forgotten.
“The soy sauce, vinegar, and salt are almost all gone. We’ll carry them back while you have time.” Xie Yiren said as she leaned on Zheng Ren’s arm.
“Yes, I’m in charge of pushing the cart.”
“Boss, don’t you need to pay the bill?” Su Yun said from behind.
“…” Zheng Ren laughed.
There were many people in the supermarket after work. Although there were rows of elderly people lining up, it was not like there were discounted items or free eggs during festivals. This was the limit of what Zheng Ren could afford.
If he were to see a bunch of elderly people queuing up … Zheng Ren’s eyes were filled with the RED system panel, and he felt dizzy just looking at it.
Even so, he had to use Xie Yiren’s Halo to barely hold on.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods, Zheng Ren’s eyes were a little dazed and listless. He took a look at the system bar and saw that his energy was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Zheng Ren sighed. He did not fall so quickly even when he was wearing lead clothes during surgery. This shortcoming of his was quite obvious.
He didn’t know if his 1345 points of energy would be enough to last until the end of the shopping. What if his energy points were depleted? Zheng Ren’s mind was filled with random thoughts.
Yiren and Chang Yue kept putting things in the cart while Su Yun was causing trouble at the side. Only Zheng Ren was quietly pushing the cart and following behind, using all his energy to resist the will of the great universe.
However, Zheng Ren’s thoughts were a little unnecessary. Before his energy was emptied, Yiren ended her shopping. He looked at the cart full of things and was a little surprised. Why did they usually use so much at home?
He didn’t even come out to buy anything, so he really didn’t know.
‘However, it seems that daily life is like this. I have to learn to adapt to it,’ Zheng Ren thought to himself.
Yiren ran to the self-service machine to pay the bill. There were relatively fewer people here, so Zheng Ren felt much better. As long as there weren’t that many people, his energy wouldn’t decrease too quickly.
Judging from the situation, he should be able to hold on until they reached home, Zheng Ren made a judgment in his heart.
“It’ll be enough for a while. Sister Yue and I will buy the food every day after work.” Yiren seemed to have sensed Zheng Ren’s fatigue and said as she scanned the QR code.
Zheng Ren saw that his energy value had stabilized and he had a few hundred points left. He knew that the day had passed without any mishaps. He was in a good mood, and the buzzing in his head was not so annoying anymore.
Zheng Ren’s face was full of smiles as he pushed the cart out after paying the bill. The more pessimistic he was when they were shopping at the supermarket, the more bright his smile was now.
Looking at the flow of people in the supermarket, Zheng Ren felt like he had just escaped death.
She walked out happily, and the slightly dirty air seemed to be fresher.
In the distance, a father was taking out a few coins from his pocket and handing them to a child who looked to be three or four years old. Zheng Ren felt very heartwarming. This was probably to train the child’s ability to take care of himself.
If he had a boy with Yiren in the future, that would be fine, but what if he had a girl? Wouldn’t he spoil the child too much? Zheng Ren’s mind was filled with wild thoughts.
Zheng Ren watched as the child clumsily walked to a coin-inserted shopping machine and raised his hand, barely able to put a coin into the coin slot. Zheng Ren felt that the child was really cute.
“Let’s not think about how to dote on my daughter for now. The most important thing is to settle my father-in-law,” Zheng Ren thought to himself. Uncle ning … What was he doing? Although she was scared, she still had to find time to call uncle ning and ask about the situation to improve their relationship.
The child stood on his tiptoes and tried hard to put the coin in. But in the end, he still couldn’t settle this matter. The one-dollar coin fell to the ground with a clang and rolled a few steps away.
Zheng Ren pushed his cart past, but he had no intention of helping the child pick up the coins. The child’s father was watching from ten meters away with a smile, so he didn’t want to be nosy.
He had to learn to be a dog’s head from an early age, or he would grow up … Zheng Ren’s thoughts ran wild, and he suddenly thought of Gu Xiaoran.
That little mommy’s boy seemed to be a good person, except for the fact that he was willing to cry.
Suddenly, a foot stepped on the coin. It was a white-haired old lady.
“Is she worried about the child?” Zheng Ren frowned as he sized her up. The system panel was red, and there was a strange diagnosis written on it.
Uh …
Before Zheng Ren could recall this strange diagnosis, the old lady’s actions were faster than her thoughts. She walked towards the child with a big smile on her face. “Thank you for helping Grandma pick up the coins,” he said as he walked.
Zheng Ren was stunned.
She wasn’t helping the child pick up the coins, but was taking advantage of him? What the … She’s even taking advantage of a coin, does she have any shame?!
However, Zheng Ren soon realized that he was wrong. The old lady walked to the child’s side and snatched the remaining two coins from his hands. “Child, thank you for helping Grandma pick up the coins,” she said as she snatched the coins. I’m old, it’s hard for me to even bend over. “
She was old … Bending her back … Just now, she seemed to be bending her back quite happily and did not seem to have any difficulty.
Zheng Ren cursed in his heart.
The child was stunned for a moment and did not react to what had happened. He looked at the old lady in a daze and then at the coins she was putting into her pocket. He was confused.
“Why did you Rob me?” The child’s father walked over with a frown. Although he was very unhappy, it was only three Yuan after all, so he still maintained a calm attitude.
However, he couldn’t just stand behind when his own child was being bullied.
“This is my money. How did your child become yours just by touching it?” The old lady shrieked,”are you bullying me because I’m old? I’m telling you, if you want to steal my money, you’ll have to kill me!”
“…” The child’s father was also stunned. He probably didn’t usually come into contact with such unreasonable people, so he was at a loss for what to do.
Zheng Ren glanced at the old lady’s bright red system panel. He grabbed Su Yun, who was about to step forward to meddle in other people’s business, and walked over to pull the child’s father back.
