Chapter 150 Even if I'm allergic, I still have to try it.

The whole process was lightning fast, and amidst the billowing fumes and bustling activity, it went unnoticed by anyone.

She handed him the squid, and at the same time, glanced up at the man with a fleeting, slightly flirtatious wink, her voice deliberately softened and sweet: "Handsome, your squid is ready, be careful it's hot~"

The man was about to take the squid when he suddenly received Su Xiaonuan's unexpected "signal" and was clearly stunned for a moment.

The pair of eyes visible above the mask instantly blazed with undisguised excitement and greed.

He probably never dreamed that going out to buy food from a roadside stall would not only allow him to eat such delicious food, but also lead to meeting such a seemingly "savvy" and beautiful stall owner.

He almost eagerly took the squid, saying repeatedly, "Okay, okay, thank you, boss."

He held the squid but didn't leave immediately. Instead, following the "hint" of Su Xiaonuan's flirtatious wink, he walked over to the small folding table that Su Xiaonuan had set up and sat down.

He took off his mask, revealing a fairly decent face but with shifty eyes. While absentmindedly eating squid, he stared intently and unabashedly at Su Xiaonuan's busy figure, his gaze like that of a sticky crawling worm, full of possessiveness and lewd fantasies.

Su Xiaonuan suppressed the nausea churning inside her, maintaining a calm expression. She would even occasionally glance back at him "inadvertently," revealing a shy yet alluring smile to ensure that his attention was completely drawn to her and that he wouldn't leave prematurely.

She could feel the sticky gaze pressed against her back as if it were a physical object, sending chills down her spine. She could only clench her fists tightly and silently count down the time in her mind.

An Ran, who had been helping to tidy up, keenly noticed Su Xiaonuan's unusual behavior and the man's unsettling gaze.

While handing Su Xiaonuan a takeout box, she leaned close to her ear, lowered her voice, and asked worriedly, "Nuannuan, what's going on? That person... the way you look at him is strange."

Su Xiaonuan turned her head and gave An Ran a reassuring yet slightly sly smile, saying quickly in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Don't worry, it's just a bug that delivered itself to our doorstep. Just wait and see, it'll be over soon."

No sooner had they finished speaking than a muffled thud came from the side!

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the man who had been sitting upright with his eyes fixed on Su Xiaonuan had now collapsed onto the small table, his cheek pressed against the greasy surface, the squid skewer in his hand falling to the ground, and he was completely still, having fallen into a deep sleep, even emitting soft snores.

It's done! Su Xiaonuan felt a sudden sense of relief, as if a huge burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

Immediately afterward, her face switched to a panicked expression, and her voice trembled just the right amount: "Oh dear! Sir! What's wrong?!"

She shouted as she rushed over, bending down to check on the other person's condition as if anxious.

She first checked his breathing to make sure it was steady, then gently nudged his shoulder and got no response. As she leaned over, her sharp gaze swept across the table—the man's phone was right next to him, the screen still lit, as if he had been using it and hadn't had time to lock it.

What was displayed on the screen was the interface of a chat application, with the chat list filled with obscene profile pictures and explicit chat previews!

Su Xiaonuan thought to herself, "This is a rare opportunity!"

Using her body to block most of the view, she quickly tapped the phone screen a few times, setting the automatic screen-off time to "never".

Then, she straightened up, her face showing a mixture of certainty and worry, and called out to the few customers and passersby who were drawn to her gaze, "Don't worry, everyone! This customer seems to be... possibly allergic to squid or some other ingredient! He's temporarily passed out! It's alright, I've already called an ambulance!"

Her explanation was reasonable, and when the people around her heard that it was an "allergy," they all looked enlightened, and the tense atmosphere immediately eased.

Some people even kindly said:

"Oh dear, you have to be careful when you eat!"

"The boss is such a nice guy, he even called an ambulance."

Then they continued to focus on the squid they hadn't finished eating or had just bought, as if the little incident was just a spice in the meal.

Some people were even muttering, "This squid is so delicious, even if I'm allergic, I have to try a bite..."

Hearing this, Su Xiaonuan's lips twitched slightly, once again marveling at the destructive power of food on human willpower.

She took out her phone and dialed Lu Zheng's number directly—for some reason, at a time like this, her intuition told her that he was the most reliable person to contact.

"Officer Lu, it's me, Su Xiaonuan. I'm... um, setting up my stall here, and a customer suddenly fainted. The situation is a bit... unusual. Could you come and take a look?"

She spoke at a steady pace, but deliberately emphasized the word "especially".

Lu Zheng on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then immediately replied, "Send me your location, I'll be there right away."

Not long after, the familiar sound of sirens grew louder as they approached, but it wasn't an ambulance.

A police car came to a steady stop on the side of the road.

The car door opened, and Lu Zheng's tall and slender figure stepped out first. He was still dressed in casual clothes, with a cold expression. His sharp eyes quickly swept across the room, immediately locking onto Su Xiaonuan and the man lying motionless on the table next to her.

When the surrounding crowd saw that it was the police, not an ambulance, they immediately turned their curious and inquisitive gazes towards the arriving vehicles and began to whisper among themselves.

When Su Xiaonuan saw Lu Zheng, she felt a strange sense of certainty in her heart.

She immediately went to greet him, her face showing just the right amount of innocence and a hint of lingering fear after being "frightened." She pointed to the unconscious man and said in a soft voice, "Officer Lu, you've arrived! This is the guest. He was eating when he suddenly fainted and we couldn't wake him up no matter what we did."

As she spoke, she glanced very naturally and subtly at the phone on the table, its screen still lit, while giving Lu Zheng a quick, almost imperceptible wink.

Lu Zheng's gaze followed her direction, first landing on the unconscious man as he assessed the situation.

Immediately, he noticed the phone with its screen always on, and the obscene chat content previews on the screen that could be vaguely seen even from a distance.

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and his jawline tightened slightly.

He immediately understood the meaning behind Su Xiaonuan's look and the word "special".
