My aunt's phone number
Xue Luo was shocked when she suddenly received a call from her aunt Xue Manyun.
Because in the original owner's impression, this aunt of T's mother was really difficult to get along with, and the relationship between her and her mother had not been very good many years ago.
Later, after she was born, we gradually got in touch.
When my mother fell ill, it was thanks to this aunt who lent her 800,000 star coins. Although my scumbag father later ran away with the money, she did lend a helping hand in that difficult situation.
Not to mention, after her mother passed away, the original owner lived in a particularly confused state for a period of time. It was her aunt who came and scolded her to wake her up, and used her connections to find her a job.
However, the original owner had a particularly awkward relationship with this lady, and in recent years he had been trying hard to return the money to her.
"Bai Xue!!! Do you think I should answer it or not?" At this moment, Xue Luo began to feel troubled, looking at the white cat that stretched lazily.
The white cat didn't understand what she was struggling with at all, so it just looked at her and meowed, meaning that if she liked to take it, then take it.
Looking at the communication prompt that was constantly lighting up and vibrating on the screen, Xue Luo accidentally clicked it before she was mentally prepared. Now she had to answer it even if she didn't want to.
"Xue Luo? You, such a busy man, finally have time to answer my call?" It started with these familiar words tinged with sarcasm. Even though Xue Luo had a big heart, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"Aunt, why...why did you call me?" As soon as Xue Luo said this, she knew she had said the wrong thing.
Sure enough, a soft hum came from the other side, in the elegant tone unique to mature women: "I can't call you?"
Yes, of course!
I still owe you 520,000 star coins.
"Auntie, I said the wrong thing..." Xue Luo was so well-behaved. She didn't remain silent or talk back. Instead, she spoke in a somewhat coquettish tone, which actually startled Xue Manyun who was coming at her aggressively from the opposite side.
I feel like she seems a little different today than before.
But at this moment, the lady didn't ask any further questions, and her tone was a little gentler than before: "Did you quit your job?"
Fireworks exploded in Xueluo's head. She coughed and said, "Auntie, please listen to my explanation... I..."
After all, the previous job was pretty good. A snack R&D assistant with a monthly salary of 10,000 after tax was not easy to find for the original owner who just graduated from an ordinary university.
It’s also close to home.
It's just that I work a bit too much overtime.
Otherwise, she would talk about her own ideals, "Auntie, I just want to open a snack shop and do my own research! That's right!!! I've had a lot of inspiration and ideas while working over the years, and now the snacks I make are loved by many people..."
Xue Luo started talking nonsense, but his words became more and more coherent. The confidence in his straightforward speech made even Aunt Xue Manyun silent for a moment.
"That's it! Auntie, don't worry about me. I can still pay you back, and I'd like to transfer 50,000 to you later!"
"I'm worried about you?" Xue Manyun said with a bit of dissatisfaction, "I don't think you're the kind of person I need to worry about. You quietly opened a small supermarket on your own? Or took over the previous tenant? His business wasn't doing well, but you did. If I hadn't heard from your colleagues, I wouldn't have known about all the things that happened to you in Jasmine District in the past month!"
"Haven't I figured out how to tell you yet?"
There was a strange silence over there, and Xue Manyun said, "Xue Luo, there's something wrong with you."
Xue Luo was most afraid of her saying this. She wanted to pretend to be the original owner's personality, but she really couldn't do it, not to mention in front of this lady who was so imposing.
Xue Luo was vague: "Auntie, lately I've felt that I've been a bit... dull, and I'm planning to make some changes. The experience of running a small supermarket for the past half month has also made me understand something..."
Xue Manyun's tone was not as harsh as it was at the beginning. "Xue Luo, it's time for you to step out of the shadow of the past."
"Okay, don't think I'm calling to urge you to pay back your debt..." She paused, then continued, "It's just that you've suddenly changed so much... and I'm planning to come to Jasmine District soon... not just to see you. You've always stayed in the countryside, so can't I come to the city for a while?"
"...Uh, of course you can, just come over anytime."
For some reason, Xueluo smelled a hint of arrogance in the words of this young lady.
"You want me to come so badly? I think you're just messing around! Wait until I come over and take a look at your store and see if you're just talking to get me."
He was a bit sharp-tongued, but there was still concern in his tone.
Xue Luo felt a little strange in her heart. She had no relatives since she was a child, but the uncles and aunts in the Welfare Bureau were very friendly, including some like this aunt who had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
"He doesn't seem particularly difficult to get along with." It was different from the impression she remembered. Xue Luo scratched her head. The white cat beside her was staring at her.
"But, our great aunt is coming, how should I entertain her?" Xue Luo was inexplicably nervous as she was entertaining an elder for the first time.
White cat: "Meow~" It seems to be saying, what's there to be nervous about?
Xueluo sighed and said, "That's true."
Xue Luo leaned over and rubbed its face. The white cat froze for a moment, not daring to move. There was a smile on her face, and she was not affected by what had just happened at all.
Of course, Xueluo quickly pinched its chubby cat face and said, "When my aunt arrives, you must help me behave well."
"Meow when you hear it."
It seemed that she would not let go of her hand unless it answered.
"Meow..." A particularly short and flat sound could be considered a response to her.
"Then do you know how to perform well?" Xueluo still hadn't petted the cat enough, and it felt so good that she was reluctant to let go. The white cat fell silent, as if forced to perform. With a short step, it leaned against Xueluo and rubbed against her.
"Meow~"
Of course, Xueluo had seen cats that acted like spoiled cats before, many of them sweeter and more gentle than this one, but perhaps because white cats were always rather proud, the rare times when this one took the initiative were already particularly charming.
"Bai Xue, if you do this, I won't let you go!"
Xueluo couldn't help but take out the fairy cat toy.
White Cat: “…”
Xueluo played with the white cat for ten minutes. To be precise, the white cat played with Xueluo for ten minutes. Finally, when she had enough fun, the white cat sighed heavily and jumped onto the high stool to sit cross-legged.
He glanced at Xueluo, and his eyes seemed to say, "Get to work."
Xueluo blinked and gestured to it: "Start now!"
The lady said she would come soon, but she didn't say when exactly, so although Xue Luo was a little worried, she didn't worry too much.
Today's customer flow was much lower than on the weekend. This was normal. After all, it was the weekend and everyone was busy, so the small supermarket was almost too busy for her to handle alone. Today was a normal weekday, and people from nearby who had heard about the hustle and bustle had come to the store to take a look. Unless they had something absolutely necessary to buy from the store, they would not come.
Customers who have come once and bought snacks from the store will certainly not come again in the short term.
However, the popularity of online stores has not decreased, but has shown an upward trend.
Her main task now is to answer questions from new customers, and the surge in customer service work has made her dizzy.
Xue Luo: “…”
She finally understood why many stores outsourced their customer service. If this happened every day, she would be extremely busy unless the business was really slow.
Even shipping is so simple in comparison.
Xue Luo had been busy for more than half an hour and didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. Fortunately, she didn't have to sit in front of the computer to reply like she did in her previous life. The intelligent brain of the Alliance Time was very convenient. It connected to a person's brain nerves and could reply directly with thoughts.
Standing or lying down casually, with a light screen projected directly in front of your eyes, is also very convenient. If you want to ask why Xueluo is so tired...
That means being a customer service representative is not a job for humans.
Xue Luo stretched lazily and saw that the sky outside was also full of dusk, brilliant and extremely beautiful. After she replied to the last group of customers, she planned to rest.
At this moment, she suddenly received a text message notification from the Moli District Central Hospital on her smart brain.
Xueluo clicked on it and saw: [Hello, Ms. Xue! A month ago, you were diagnosed with type xx genetic disease at this hospital. Please come to the Central Hospital for another checkup before the end of this month.]
"Check?" Xue Luo suddenly remembered something. She hesitated for a moment, but still ignored it.
She is now suffering from a terminal genetic disease, and the Alliance can only provide conservative treatment. Otherwise, the original owner would not have been so desperate as to give up treatment directly.
The white cat next to her also saw the notice. In that instant, a look of confusion and contemplation appeared in its blue eyes.
But just when it was about to investigate, Xueluo had already closed the text message. She stood up and said to herself, "I'd better not go. It's the same whether I go or not."
The white cat stared at her.
"Let's go upstairs." Xueluo certainly didn't think that this cat could know anything.
Nie Xun, who was seeing this short message at the side, was also very surprised. He couldn't help but look at her again. This time he was looking completely with his mental power, just to confirm whether her brain area and spiritual sea were normal. He never expected that when his eyes were fixed on her spiritual sea, he was surrounded by a thick white mist.
At this moment, Xue Luo also felt a strange pain, as if someone was hitting her head hard with a hammer.
She couldn't help but scream in pain and almost fell to the ground.
"Your genetic disease has broken out, please take the medicine in time!" The system voice that had not appeared for a long time sounded coldly in her mind. At that moment, Xue Luo knew what had happened.
Her whole body tensed up, like a shrimp.
A needle was stabbing hard in her brain.
She didn't even have the energy to think about where the pain came from.
Until the system's reminder sounded, temporarily isolating her from some of the pain, "...Exchange for genetic medicine!"
She said immediately.
In fact, not long ago, Xue Luo was also on guard against when the impact of this terminal genetic disease would come!
But I never expected that it would come like this, and come so unexpectedly.
A crystal clear round-necked bottle fell into her hand.
Xueluo drank the liquid in one gulp without even looking at it.
The pain that felt like my head was about to split apart gradually eased.
"Meow--" the white cat jumped over, and the low growl became clearer in her ears.
"Is it scary..." Xue Luo's voice was still a little weak at this time, and there was some cold sweat on her face, which was as white as paper, making her look very fragile. But she subconsciously pursed her lips, trying to comfort the white cat with a smile.
"Meow..." The white cat, who had been in a daze, finally seemed to come back to its senses. It approached her and made a low inquiring sound.
"I'm fine." Xue Luo put the round-necked crystal bottle in her hand aside, and her expression gradually relaxed.
She sat on the ground, and the white cat walked around her, its blue eyes not daring to move away from her for a moment, for fear that she would disappear in the next moment.
"I'm really fine."
Xueluo stretched out a hand towards it.
The white cat was stunned for a moment before stopping and slowly placing its fleshy right paw on her hand. "Meow...?"
It's like asking tentatively, are you really okay?
What's strange is that the medicine took effect very quickly. Xueluo had even forgotten what it tasted like, but now she felt that it was almost the same as before.
Looking at the cat who was worried about her, a clear image of her was reflected in its dark blue eyes.
This feeling of being cared for made her heart warm. She held its paw and gave it a tiger kiss on its furry face.
The white cat was dumbfounded for a moment, and seemed unable to react.
Her pale but brilliant smile was imprinted in its eyes, "Snow White, it's so good to have you around!"
The white cat couldn't understand why the girl, who had just been in so much pain, was in the mood to tease it now.
It ran out of her arms and did not continue to use its mental power to peek into her spiritual sea. It just took a quick glance. Except for its slightly pale face, there was no other problem.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It stared dimly at the round-necked crystal bottle she had placed aside. She had just taken it out of thin air and after drinking it, the source of pollution that had been restless in her body also calmed down.
The liquid in this round-necked crystal bottle must be something special!
"What are you thinking about?" Xue Luo stood up from the ground and picked him up. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel lucky that there were not many people around at the moment. Otherwise, if someone saw what happened just now, she really didn't know how to explain it.
"Meow..." The white cat seemed particularly well-behaved at this moment.
When it was in her arms, it also looked up at her.
"It would be nice if you could talk... But it doesn't matter. Since I'm not feeling well today, let's go upstairs and rest early."
Xueluo decided to give herself a vacation.
