Chapter 260 Conflicts Begin



If it's Mu Chen, that doesn't seem likely. After all, they investigated Mu Chen for a while before. Apart from receiving a boxed lunch from Ming Mei at the beginning, Mu Chen never took it out again, and no one saw Ming Mei give him a boxed lunch.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Just as the atmosphere in the kitchen was tense, Zhen Hu appeared there, covered in sweat. Everyone's eyes suddenly turned to him, which startled Zhen Hu.

"Um, um, I just came back to take breakfast back with me..."

Zhen Hu chuckled awkwardly twice, then walked straight to his stove, took out a bag of breakfast wrapped in brown paper from under the stove, and left.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but look back one last time, a kind-hearted smile flashing across his face, and said, "Miss Ming is a girl, you bunch of grown men don't need to..."

As they were talking, Zhen Hu noticed the glare he was getting and immediately turned away in a hurry.

After leaving the cafeteria, Zhen Hu rummaged through the brown paper bag in his arms again. Looking at the two boxed meals inside, which were different from the ones he had packed that morning, he already knew what was going on.

Meanwhile, Mingmei and the other party have been going through this whole ordeal for the past few days in order to keep a boxed lunch for themselves.

In the end, Mingmei still kept one box. At lunchtime, she told the cafeteria manager that she would not continue working there, which really startled the manager.

"Hey, there's no need to make things difficult for yourself by competing with your superiors. You don't need to quit your job."

Thinking that Mingmei had been upset by her superiors, the junior leader wiped the sweat from his brow and kindly advised her.

"I know I'll keep providing boxed meals, but I don't want to stay in the cafeteria every day. It's stable, but I still want to join the team of superhumans."

Mingmei sighed as she spoke, and added, "The rescue team has also been reduced in number recently, which has made the work in the canteen much easier. There are more employees, but dealing with interpersonal relationships is... troublesome."

Mingmei's tone was gentle, but as she spoke, her eyes secretly glanced to both sides, causing the junior supervisor in charge of the canteen to break out in a cold sweat.

He understood what Mingmei was saying. There had indeed been more and more staff in the cafeteria lately. Some got in through connections, while others had powerful backers. Even he, as a junior manager, sometimes found himself in a dilemma, let alone those without connections who were constantly being bullied.

However, his advice to Mingmei to stay was indeed well-intentioned.

After all, although she has superpowers, they are not the kind that are suitable for combat. Once she leaves the cafeteria, where else can she find such good treatment?

"Even if you continue to provide the boxed meals they need every day, the pay really isn't much, and you've lost your job..."

"Oh, now that you mention it, I forgot. These are such good lunch boxes; it would be a disservice to everyone who treats them like treasures if we didn't raise the price!"

Upon hearing Mingmei's words, the junior leader's smile froze. She stammered but didn't utter a sound. She simply turned around, waved her hand, and left the cafeteria with a very elegant air.

As soon as she stepped outside, Mingmei saw Lu Xiaoyao and Bai Xiao standing under the shade of a tree not far away, looking at her with bright smiles.

Upon seeing her emerge, Lu Xiaoyao eagerly waved and exclaimed excitedly, "Meimei, I've tidied up your room! Mu Chen and Zhen Po just went to get your luggage. Let's go home!"

Hearing the words "go home" stirred a bright feeling in her heart, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

More than a month passed in the game, and she finally had a stable "home"...
