After leaving the black market, Lin Jin found a secluded spot, entered his spatial dimension, and transformed back into his original form. He then headed straight for the shopping mall. Bicycles were in high demand in this era, so he decided to check them out. If they were available, he would buy one; if not, he would wait until next time.

The mall was bustling with people. Lin Jin finally found the bicycle shop, but there was no one there. The saleswoman was a young woman who was applying lipstick when Lin Jin arrived and didn't even glance at him. Lin Jin still went up and asked, "Sir, do you have any bicycles?"

The salesperson replied impatiently, "180 yuan per vehicle. Do you have a purchase receipt? If you're sure you need it, I'll go get it." After saying that, she continued looking in the mirror.

Lin Jin wanted to ask what brands were available, and was just about to speak.

The saleswoman unceremoniously reached out and shoved Lin Jin, who was standing in front of her, aside. Caught off guard, Lin Jin staggered back a few steps before regaining his balance. A surge of anger instantly rose within him, and just as he was about to explode, he suddenly heard the saleswoman say in a affected, high-pitched voice, "Brother Su, why are you back? Could it be... you came back especially to see me?"

Lin Jin frowned slightly, wondering what was going on, and then turned around to look. What she saw was truly astonishing—the saleswoman was tightly clutching a man's sleeve, shaking it incessantly, acting all cute and coquettish. The man, completely ignoring the saleswoman's actions, stared intently at Lin Jin, his face filled with excitement, and shouted, "Dr. Lin, it really is you! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw you from afar; I thought I had mistaken you for someone else!"

Faced with the man's enthusiastic greeting, Lin Jin looked bewildered and confused. She carefully examined the unfamiliar man before her, trying to recall any information about him, but to no avail. Hesitantly, Lin Jin asked, "Excuse me... who are you? Have we met before?"

The man lowered his head slightly, his expression somewhat forlorn, and said softly, "Have you forgotten? Su Ran, the one who was bitten by a snake on the mountain a few months ago." Hearing this, Lin Jin was first taken aback, then as if suddenly remembering something, a bright smile bloomed on her face, and she quickly replied, "Oh, it's you! I really didn't expect to run into you here! How are you feeling now? Have you suffered any lasting effects or anything?"

Su Ran scratched his head sheepishly, smiled sheepishly, and replied, "Thanks to the medicine you gave me, it was really effective. Later, I went to the hospital for a full checkup, and the doctor told me that there were absolutely no toxins left in my body. By the way, seeing you wandering around here, are you here to pick out and buy a bicycle too?"

"Yes, isn't this comrade helping me get it?" Lin Jin said, pointing to the sales clerk.

Seeing this, Su Ran quickly reached out and forcefully pulled the saleswoman's hand away, her face showing an extremely serious expression. She stared intently at the saleswoman and said, "Qianqian, hurry up and help that person with their bicycle! It's working hours now! How can you just casually run out from behind the counter and chat with people like that? And you're even making the customer wait here! You're being far too careless and irresponsible with your job!"
