Wu Qian shuddered, his eyes instantly clearing, and he quickly chased after Black Pockmarked Man and the others.

I can't afford to mess with them.

Zhou Yi shrugged and walked towards Xue Ru's dumpling shop.

Outside the shop, a few street urchins occasionally glanced into the shop with shifty eyes.

There were no customers in the store, and traces of repairs to the damaged tables and chairs could be faintly seen, indicating that the recent battle had been fierce.

The tall, leggy woman leaned against the counter with her arms crossed, her face neither flushed nor out of breath, showing no signs of having just had a passionate encounter.

Beneath those hot pants, two long, snow-white legs were particularly eye-catching, tightly closed without leaving the slightest gap, straight and slender, seemingly shimmering with a layer of crystal.

Zhou Yi's gaze shifted upwards, and he saw his sister-in-law with long, dark brown, wavy hair draped over her left shoulder. She had willow-leaf eyebrows, a small nose, an oval face, and a cold expression.

"Boss, a bowl of beef noodles and a bowl of fried dumplings, please."

Gong Yan's eyebrows stood on end.

"Zhou Yi! What are you doing here?"

Zhou Yi tapped the table. "Hard to hear? Time to eat! Bring out the beef noodles and fried dumplings right now!"

Gong Yan snorted coldly and walked towards the kitchen.

Zhou Yi surveyed the store's environment.

The original owner rarely came here, partly because the beautiful sister-in-law was too violent, and partly because the food was too expensive.

A bowl of beef noodles costs 50 yuan.

50 yuan is enough to live on for a month if I save every penny, but here it's only enough for one full meal.

However, this is also the only shop outside the isolation wall that sells beef.

Before long, Gong Yan walked over, one big star in each hand.

The two bowls landed heavily on the table.

Zhou Yi couldn't wait any longer and grabbed his chopsticks to wolf down his food.

Within minutes, a large bowl of beef noodles and fried dumplings was completely devoured.

Zhou Yi could clearly feel a warm current flowing through his limbs and bones.

A sense of power swept through my body once again.

It felt tingly and numb, like I had just experienced a full-service massage.

But I was still very hungry.

You can even become stronger!

Zhou Yi looked up at his long-legged sister-in-law.

Gong Yan stood to the side with her arms crossed, coldly looking down at Zhou Yi.

Why stay here after you've finished eating?

Zhou Yi asked in surprise, "You don't charge money?"

Gong Yan said impatiently, "Can you afford it? If you can't, then get out!"

"real?"

Zhou Yi slapped his thigh and said with a face full of regret, "If I had known this would happen, I should have come sooner! Since it's free, then give me two more servings, no, ten more servings."
