Chapter 242 Chat
Shen Jufeng had just finished speaking when Lu Jiu was looking at the street when he saw a group of four patrol NPCs walking over. "The patrol schedule here is quite tight."
During the time she was there, she saw three patrol teams passing by.
However, he also caught onto Shen Jufeng's mention that there were residents on patrol. "But it's no wonder. The patrols are so intense, and the city-state is so large. It would take more manpower to form such a dense patrol time just by relying on NPCs."
But soon she saw another figure of interest. "Wow, am I seeing things?"
As she spoke, she stuck her head out of the window to get a closer look. Yong Lin, who was sitting opposite her, also curiously leaned in to take a look. "Sister Lu, what are you looking at?"
Lu Jiu sat back down, still a little confused, "Maybe I saw it wrongly, why is he here?"
Shen Jufeng was also curious, "Why, someone you know?"
Lu Jiu waved his hand, "It would be great if he was an acquaintance, but I know him, but he doesn't know me."
Zhuang Yun gossiped, "You have a crush on her?"
An An also looked at Lu Jiu quietly.
Soon, seeing Shen Jufeng's death gaze, Zhuang Yun immediately lowered his head to drink the soup.
Lu Jiu used a spoon to scoop up the hot soup in the bowl. "You're overthinking it. I'm just simply admiring it."
Before they had chatted for a few words, Lu Jiu's attention was attracted by a figure that had just come up.
Shen Jufeng followed her line of sight and saw the man he had seen in the pharmacy before. He felt suspicious. He felt that the other person looked a little familiar, but he didn't expect that Lu Jiu knew him.
Then he heard Yong Lin, who was sitting diagonally across from him, gasp, "So it's him. No wonder you're so surprised, Sister Lu."
Zhuang Yun also looked over curiously, and then confirmed the other party's identity. "Xu Yuanjia, a big star, why is he here?"
An An remembered that she had seen this brother on TV before. "On TV."
In Zhuang Yun's impression, such a big star, even if he didn't stay in Yanjing, would be in a super first-tier city like Shanghai.
Shen Jufeng finally remembered that Xu Yuanjia was indeed very famous before the apocalypse. He had even seen an advertisement he had shot, and the content of that advertisement was about his company's products.
But the other person looked at him like that, so he must have recognized who he was.
He looked at Lu Jiu and asked, "Do you like chasing stars?"
It is understandable if she is a fan. She was only 20 years old when she met Lu Jiu. It is normal for her to be a fan when she has money and time.
Lu Jiu just smiled and said, "I'm not a fan, I've only seen the movies he acted in. I was just a little surprised to see the big star in person."
Her favorite thing is games.

When they were looking at Xu Yuanjia, Xu Yuanjia also noticed Shen Jufeng's side.
The man following Xu Yuanjia is his assistant, of course, he is a former assistant and now a teammate.
As soon as the male assistant went upstairs, he saw Shen Jufeng and the others, and judging from the reactions of several of his teammates, he knew that he had recognized Xu Yuanjia.
"Hey, they all recognized you, how about going to say hello?"
Xu Yuanjia shook his head and said, "No need, we're not familiar with each other."
It’s already this late, should I go say hello and give them autographs?
The male assistant said no more, but was still curious about Shen Jufeng, who was once the big boss.
Lu Jiu felt that this trip to Jidu City was worthwhile. Not only did she relax in a different environment, but she also got to see with her own eyes the top male stars that she had only seen on TV before.
As the "husband" of thousands of girls, Xu Yuanjia's appearance is naturally very pleasing to the eye.
She still remembered that some of her friends were fans of Xu Yuanjia.

Seeing is believing. In the minds of people in Jinjiang District and even other places, Jidu City is a majestic city, but when you come here, you will find that it is not much different from other city-states.
There are simply too few shops, and I only noticed this because it's so prosperous.
Lu Jiu changed her hairstyle before leaving the city. In order to make things easier, she now has short silver hair. After all, she doesn't know how to change it herself, so she will have to use it for a long time when she is away.
Unless you come across a city-state that also has a barber shop.
After finishing their meal, they decided to rest here for one night. Tomorrow, Zhuang Yun would return with her daughter and Yong Lin, while she and Shen Jufeng would continue their journey.
Lu Jiu sat alone at the stall eating ice cream, Shen Jufeng and Yong Lin went to the training room, and Zhuang Yun took his daughter to find something fun.
There are very few entertainment stores in Jidu City, only one or two. However, the people here are all training fanatics. After watching for half a day, the training room is the busiest place.
The stall owner is a single mother. This afternoon, her son came back and obediently helped at the stall.
Just watch Lu Jiu eating his fifth ice cream.
The child looked unfamiliar with Lu Jiu, but she had a gentle temperament and seemed like a kind older sister.
"Sister, eating so much ice cream is not good for your health."
Lu Jiu heard the child talking to her, turned around and smiled, "No, it's okay to eat as much ice cream as you want now, but thank you for reminding me."
The little boy was a little confused after hearing this. He remembered that he used to have stomachaches if he ate too much ice cream.
The stall owner looked at his child with a smile.
The stall happened to be unbusy at the moment, so Lu Jiu ordered two more ice creams and placed one of them in front of the little boy.
"This is for you, as a thank you for your kind reminder just now."
The little boy didn't take it, but looked at his mother, and the stall owner just nodded slightly.
Only then did he dare to take the ice cream and said, "Thank you, sister."
Lu Jiu bit the spoon gently and said vaguely: "You're welcome. Have you and your mother been in this city-state since the beginning?"
"Yes, we have always lived here."
The child couldn't quite articulate what he meant, so the stall owner had to explain, "We originally lived in Jinjiang District, but we never ventured far and just kept circling the area. When we saw this city-state, I brought him here to settle down."
"Oh, I'm from Jinjiang District too, but I live in Xuantian City."
The stall owner knew this city-state. "I know this city-state. It ranks first in this area, but our city-state is also very good."
These are the residents who feel a sense of belonging to the city-state.
Lu Jiu: "As long as I have a good place to live, I'm fine. I've heard that Jidu City is pretty impressive, so I came here with my teammates to take a look. I originally thought the atmosphere here would be very serious."
The stall owner chuckled, wiping the tableware on the stall with a cloth in his hand. "There is such a rumor. Many people who come here think this is a munitions factory, but in fact, we are all living ordinary lives."
Lu Jiu: "Although that's the case, the security here seems to be very good. I see that the patrols are very active, and it makes me feel safe."
The stall owner replied, "Yes, it wasn't like this originally. It was last autumn when something happened, and the city lord cracked down on it, driving out many of the restless people and even establishing city regulations. That's why we have such a peaceful life today."
As he spoke, he seemed to recall the scene at that time. "Everything is fine now. There are so many people coming here, but few of them cause trouble. If anyone dares to cause trouble, the city lord will immediately drive them out."
Lu Jiu nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, "No wonder this city-state is so powerful. We just have nothing else to do in spring, so we want to see more outside."
Upon hearing this, the stall owner's eyes were filled with envy. "It's good to see more, but you still have to be careful. It's a pity that my child is still young and hasn't been able to explore other cities before the world has changed. Until now, he can only stay near the city-state. When the beast tide first appeared, I didn't dare let him leave the city gate."
