Chapter 8 Traction

Jiang Panyu quickly walked behind Tan Yanlu and joined the queue, looking around to see where Gao Shaolin was.

After looking for a long time without seeing Gao Shaolin, I asked the melon-eating system to scan around and found out that Gao Shaolin had not come yet.

As the time pointed to five o'clock in the morning, the door of the department store finally opened and the staff were already ready inside.

The people queuing at the door quickly walked into the store and bought what they needed, but most of them went directly to the second floor. They all heard the news and came to buy wool yarn.

Jiang Panyu followed closely behind Tan Yanlu, but when he reached the handrail of the stairs, he could no longer go up because the second floor was already crowded with people.

They could only continue to queue. Jiang Panyu looked around and found that the stairs were nailed with anti-slip strips.

There were no other sundries placed near the stairs, and no wood for making cabinets was found at the stairs on the first floor.

Jiang Panyu thought that it seemed that her deliberate falls from the upstairs over the past two days had paid off. Now, the safety measures had been improved by more than one or two points.

Time passed by little by little, and people who bought wool upstairs went downstairs one after another, while those who didn't buy were still queuing up.

The crowd was so crowded that Jiang Panyu accidentally bumped into Tan Yanlu in front of him. Tan Yanwei turned around and found a little girl shorter than her, who reached out to help Jiang Panyu.

"Thank you." Jiang Panyu thanked Tan Yanlu.

"You're welcome." Tan Yanlu responded with a smile. After the person in front of her moved, Tan Yanlu continued to follow in the footsteps of the person in front of her, walking up step by step.

Just when Tan Yanlu reached the stairs to the second floor, Jiang Panyu finally saw a man carrying a suitcase bag walking into the department store.

He has regular features, not ugly but not good-looking either. The special fish-scale pattern on his neck is particularly obvious, which easily leaves a deep impression on people.

Gao Shaolin walked into the department store and bought candy from a counter next to the stairs.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion among the people queuing on the second floor, and they began to push and shove. Tan Yanlu was standing at the side and was bumped by a person in front of her. She lost her balance and was about to fall backwards.

Jiang Panyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw this scene. It seemed as if there was an invisible thread pulling Tan Yanlu's fate towards Gao Shaolin.

Jiang Panyu reached out in time and supported Tan Yanlu's waist from behind. With a fulcrum behind her and anti-slip strips under her feet, Tan Yanlu finally stood firm after swaying a few times and did not fall down the stairs.

Tan Yanlu turned back with lingering fear and looked at Jiang Panyu gratefully: "Thank you, young comrade."

"Why are you being polite? Didn't you help me just now? We should help each other."

With the interaction just now and this time, Tan Yanlu and Jiang Panyu naturally started talking: "Little comrade, are you here to sell wool or to buy Dacron fabric?"

Jiang Panyu didn't want to buy anything, whether it was wool yarn or Dacron fabric, she couldn't afford these two things now. As for money, of course she had the subsidy, but she didn't have the cloth coupons, so she couldn't buy them even if she wanted to.

Jiang Panyu pretended to be shy and said awkwardly: "I don't want to buy anything. I'm here to broaden my horizons. I heard that the wool is very good, so I want to take a look. I just want to watch the fun."

"I see. I'm going to buy it soon. Why don't you come with me and say you're with me? Then you can watch it up close.

By the way, I haven’t asked you what your name is yet. My name is Tan Yanlu, what’s yours? "Tan Yanlu invited Jiang Panyu.

"My name is Jiang Panyu, so I won't be polite. I heard that there is red wool this time, the color is very bright and beautiful, so I want to take a look!" Jiang Panyu naturally agreed.

Isn’t the purpose of her coming here just for Tan Yanlu? Now that I have established a relationship with her, I must hold on to her.

Jiang Panyu followed Tan Yanlu in the queue and slowly walked towards the counter, his figure obscured by the crowded crowd.

Gao Shaolin downstairs had already bought the candy, but he was still standing at the stairs in front of the counter with a dazed expression. He always felt that something should happen.

I always feel like I haven’t finished some big things yet, but is there anything big I need to do here?

Gao Shaolin was a little confused. He just came to the city to study. He came to the department store to buy candy today, and he also wanted to use the candy to build good relationships with the chief doctors in the hospital.

After all, the opportunity to study in the city is precious, and Gao Shaolin had to use some tricks to get this opportunity. He didn't want to waste this hard-earned opportunity, so he had to be more experienced in the ways of the world.

He should have left after buying the candy, but for some reason his feet felt like they were covered in glue and he couldn't move.

Jiang Panyu saw Gao Shaolin, who had not left the stairs, through the melon-eating system, and then he used time delay to make it impossible for Gao Shaolin to leave by himself.

Fortunately, she had made two preparations. Even if she could not completely separate Gao Shaolin and Tan Yanlu, she wanted them to have as little contact and talk as possible.

As long as there is no emotional foundation at the beginning, then when Tan Yanlu goes to the countryside in the future and knows the situation at Gao Shaolin's home, will she still have a good impression of Gao Shaolin?

While Tan Yanlu was paying for her shopping, Jiang Panyu quietly walked to the stairs and reached into her pocket. Then, based on the color of his pocket, he took out a whole enamel cup of firecrackers from the space.

Throwing firecrackers are sand firecrackers, which are small firecrackers that explode when thrown and make a noise when stepped on. They explode when thrown on people without leaving any trace and are very safe.

Jiang Panyu has been preparing this these past two days. She filled a cup with firecrackers and when no one was paying attention, she scattered the entire cup of firecrackers downstairs.

There were so many people coming and going downstairs, and the firecracker was stepped on by someone as soon as it fell to the ground, and then a crisp "crackling" sound was heard. And it was not just one or two sounds, but people stepped on it continuously.

Many people were startled, and those walking back and forth downstairs immediately became confused. Those who didn't know what was going on were frightened and rushed to the door.

The college student standing at the stairs also stepped on it, and he was also swept by the crowd to walk out the door, but his steps were forced to be slow and hesitant. He had a feeling in his heart that if he walked away, he might miss something very important.

But people kept pouring out from behind him, and he had no way to go back.

Naturally, the people on the second floor noticed the noise on the first floor and they all stood at the stairs to see what was going on. Then the sales clerks downstairs started cursing. It turned out that someone had scattered a lot of firecrackers down.

The ping-pong noise not only scared away the customers, but also caused some things in the store to be messed up during the pushing and shoving.

After such a farce, in order to prevent any further accidents, the crowded people on the second floor began to be evacuated.

Jiang Panyu and Tan Yanlu had already finished shopping, so they were naturally the first group of people to come out.

When the two men walked to the door, they met Gao Shaolin, who was carrying a luggage bag and staring at Tan Yanlu.

As soon as Tan Yanlu saw Gao Shaolin, or rather, noticed the special pattern on his neck, she paused and unconsciously covered her chest with one hand. Her heart began to beat wildly, as if she had seen something important.
