"Wait a minute."

Zhen Po didn't notice the way Mingmei was looking at Lu Xiaoyao. She assumed Mingmei was asking her a question, so she didn't immediately refuse Mingmei. Instead, she took the several large boxes of pizza from the box in front of Mingmei and accepted them.

Immediately afterwards, Zhen Po turned around and went into the house to place the pizza on the dining table.

Lu Xiaoyao, who was observing from the side, was also stunned by so many boxes of pizza. For a moment, she forgot her bright eyes and exclaimed, "Oh my god, there are only six of us, and you bought six boxes of pizza! So many!"

so much?

One 7-inch pizza per person.

Mingmei couldn't guarantee that everyone could finish this portion, but Lu Xiaoyao's surprise made Mingmei find it somewhat amusing.

Mingmei still clearly remembers the scenes of her eating with Lu Xiaoyao these past few days. Lu Xiaoyao's appetite is not something that can be filled up by just one pizza.

So, what did she mean by saying that?

"I've already eaten the pizza, so I don't have any appetite for anything else." Upon hearing Lu Xiaoyao's words, Mingmei immediately felt a pang of panic.

Is this guy going to refuse her takeout again because of pizza?!

Mingmei stopped breathing as she thought about this, and the sound of her heartbeat amplified in her mind.

She had even decided that if Lu Xiaoyao tried anything funny this time, she would never give her a second chance!

"I don't like pizza, it's too greasy. I'd rather have a boxed lunch. By the way, is your boxed lunch good?"

Lu Xiaoyao pouted, clearly disgusted by the pizza, then turned to Mingmei, whose expression had suddenly changed, and asked her a question.

Mingmei never expected that Lu Xiaoyao would be so amazing today!

Suddenly, a voice asked if the boxed lunch was good. Not only was Mingmei excited, but Lu Xiaoyao, who had also received the notification, also brightened up.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"

Oh my God! Oh my God!

Mysterious Merchant!

Her casual remark actually had this function!

Mingmei and everyone else present were startled by Lu Xiaoyao's scream. Then, Mingmei was suddenly pulled into the house by Lu Xiaoyao.

Mingmei was pulled in along with them, and she almost fell. Fortunately, there were many people at the door, and Mingmei didn't know who she grabbed to steady herself.

"What are you doing? Why are you in such a panic?"

A male player, a stranger to Mingmei, stood at the entrance. He had previously come over to secretly observe the newcomer.

In fact, if Mingmei hadn't reacted quickly and stepped aside when Lu Xiaoyao pulled her in, she would have definitely been knocked over by Lu Xiaoyao's excited momentum.

Lou Jia glanced at Lu Xiaoyao with some disdain, then looked at the door out of the corner of his eye. Lu Xiaoyao had pulled him in so quickly that the door hadn't even been closed yet, and the dark doorway looked rather eerie.

"Clumsy guy~" he said with disdain, but his body language betrayed him as he stepped forward and closed the door behind him.

"Why are you pulling that delivery guy? Could it be..." The other players nearby also expressed their dissatisfaction with Lu Xiaoyao's current behavior. However, Mingmei's appearance made them a little suspicious.

"You're a player too?"

Zhen Po also asked uncertainly from the side. Mingmei glanced at him sideways, then shook her head, feigning ignorance as she asked, "Players? You guys play games here?"

Upon hearing Mingmei's words, the people present looked strange and exchanged glances, as if they were confirming something with each other.

However, this did not include Lu Xiaoyao. Lu Xiaoyao directly grabbed Mingmei's hands with both of them and asked excitedly, "What new products do you have? I can buy them all to eat!"

Lu Xiaoyao's performance was truly exceptional. Mingmei then opened the insulated box she was carrying on her back and showed Lu Xiaoyao two kinds of boxed meals.

[Mapo Tofu Bento Box: One box offsets the self-destructive damage caused by one instance of demonic possession; multiple boxes can be purchased at once; one credit point per box.]

[Sardine Bento Box in Tomato Sauce: Activate the Yin-Yang Eye (Controllable), Total Duration 3 Hours; 1 Credit Point/Serving]

"Wow!" Lu Xiaoyao's eyes widened in disbelief. She looked up at Mingmei in disbelief, then looked down at the boxed lunch in front of her. But the price was just too expensive!

Lu Xiaoyao couldn't help but glance at the wall clock in the room. It was six o'clock in the afternoon. Because it was late autumn, the outside world was already shrouded in darkness.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Xiaoyao turned her head to look at the boxed lunches in front of her, held up three fingers to Mingmei and said, "Give me three Mapo Tofu boxed lunches!"

Mingmei: ...?

Three servings of Mapo Tofu?

Everyone: ...

Holy crap, are these scores fabricated like this?

"Don't you want to try the tomato sardine bento?" Mingmei thought Lu Xiaoyao was being extravagant by spending three credits, but, in this supernatural story, shouldn't she consider the sardine bento?

Those with the ability to see ghosts can see certain things.

"No, no." Lu Xiaoyao quickly shook her head, her eyes and heart filled with refusal.

Are you kidding me!

Why did she want to see those strange and unattractive things?

She had no curiosity and didn't want to see it!

If she can survive until the end, she will win!

After confirming several times that Lu Xiaoyao had no further requests, Mingmei handed the Mapo Tofu boxed lunch to Lu Xiaoyao.

However, when Mingmei opened the insulated container and saw the pile of boxed meals, she suddenly realized why the container was so heavy today!

Hmm, it's actually not so bad after carrying it for a while.
