The gentler a person appears in normal times, the more terrifying he or she will be when he or she gets angry.
Shen Cheng is a typical example.
Although Chen Cheng usually has the image of a gentle, elegant, and cheerful old man, in fact, when he was a child, he even had a glorious record of getting angry and picking up a wooden stick to beat up six children who were two years older than him.
Looking at the cashier's timid appearance, Shen Chengyu sneered in his heart.
After all, he is just a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong.
Chen Cheng himself had been stained with blood, but the gentle temperament accumulated day after day concealed the unusual ferocity.
In addition, Liusu was leaving in the next two days, and Chen Cheng was not in a very good mood to begin with. Now, he encountered this kind of thing. It can only be said that this cashier has walked into Chen Cheng's trap.
Looking at Shen Cheng's fierce eyes, the cashier felt as if he was being stared at by a wild beast, and his whole body felt as if he was falling into an icy cave.
"Pay the bill." Shen Cheng said coldly.
"Okay...Okay!" The cashier nodded repeatedly, then began to take the items from Shen Cheng's shopping basket.
"Bang!"
When she picked up the account book from the shopping basket with trembling hands, Shen Cheng slammed the table, scaring the cashier so much that her hands trembled and she dropped the account book back.
"Did I ask you to settle mine?" Chen Cheng looked at the cashier with cold eyes and said lightly: "Settle hers first."
The reference here is naturally to the mother next to Shen Cheng.
"Yes... yes!" The cashier replied in a trembling voice and began to check out for the mother in a hurry.
After settling the bill, the mother paid, took her daughter from Chen Cheng's arms, bowed slightly to Chen Cheng, and then turned and left.
The cashier looked at the mother's back as she left, and opened her mouth to speak, but Shen Cheng's tall figure blocked her view: "What are you looking at? Check out."
Even a fool could see that Shen Cheng was standing up for the mother. The cashier could only nod repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice and started to settle the bill for Shen Cheng.
The cashier's hands were shaking like an old lady, and she threw Shen Cheng's account book on the cashier counter four or five times in a row. Seeing Shen Cheng's increasingly impatient expression, the cashier's back was covered in cold sweat.
After paying the bill, Shen Cheng didn't target the cashier anymore. He turned around and walked out of the supermarket with the bag.
Seeing Shen Cheng's back disappear, the cashier first breathed a sigh of relief, then stretched his head to look at the mess in front of the counter, and his face fell again.
After walking out of the supermarket, Shen Cheng put on his usual gentle smile again. Turning around, he saw the mother and daughter standing at the entrance of the supermarket, seemingly waiting for him.
As soon as she saw Shen Cheng, the mother immediately bowed and said, “Thank you very much for what you did today!”
"Thank you, brother~" The little girl also bent down in a very similar way, but because she bent too hard, her whole body staggered forward twice. If her mother had not quickly supported her daughter, the little girl would have fallen into the snow.
Seeing the little girl's appearance, Chen Cheng laughed dumbly and said to the mother: "Just call the police, why should you pay her? The surveillance is right there. Can it be said that the Public Security Bureau will blatantly stand on her side?"
Speaking of the Public Security Bureau, we have to bring up the incident when Chen Cheng first met Xiang Xin. I heard that because of the umbrella incident, a high-ranking official from the Mio City Public Security Bureau was pulled out. Although Chen Cheng did not participate in the follow-up of that incident, now the upper echelons of the Mio City Public Security Bureau basically recognize Chen Cheng.
After a moment's silence, the mother rubbed her daughter's head and said softly, "I don't want... the child to see this..."
Hearing this, Shen Cheng also fell silent.
In fact, if someone wrongly accused Yanyan of being a naughty child in front of Chen Cheng, Chen Cheng would probably grab that person's collar and beat him without saying a word.
"Brother, do you have superpowers?" Suddenly, the little girl looked at Chen Cheng and asked this question with an innocent face, which made Chen Cheng slightly stunned.
"I saw that the hot water was about to spill on Mommy, and then it suddenly stopped." Little Nannan looked at Chen Cheng expectantly.
Chen Cheng came back to his senses, smiled, squatted down, reached out and rubbed the little girl's head, and said: "Yes, brother has super powers."
The mother smiled and shook her head.
In her opinion, her daughter must have seen it wrong. How could there be such a thing as superpowers in the world?
"Then why didn't brother throw the hot water on that woman's face?" Xiao Nannan's sudden words made Shen Cheng's movements freeze again: "She bullies mom, I don't like her!"
The corner of Shen Cheng's mouth twitched slightly. This child...
The mother also had a trace of cold sweat on her forehead. She quickly picked up her child and said to Chen Cheng with an apologetic smile: "Children speak without restraint. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Ahem..." Clearing his throat, Chen Cheng said to Xiao Nannan, "Superpowers are used to protect those around you, not to hurt others. Do you understand?"
Shen Cheng looked a little embarrassed when he spoke.
After all, this is educating someone else's little girl in front of her mother.
Little Nannan looked up at Chen Cheng for a moment, then nodded as if she understood.
Suddenly, Xiao Nannan asked Chen Cheng again: "Brother, how can you have super powers?"
"When you see your mother being bullied again, just keep repeating to yourself 'I will protect my mother' and you will gain superpowers." Shen Cheng replied with a smile.
Little Nannan's eyes lit up: "I know!"
The mother couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It seems that if I don't want my daughter's fantasy to be shattered, I have to be tougher when I encounter such things in the future.
After saying goodbye to the mother and daughter, Chen Cheng took the separate account book out of the bag and put it in his pocket for future use. Then he got into the car and stepped on the accelerator as if he was familiar with the place.
"Buzz~Puff..."
Shen Cheng: “…”
Why does it feel like my car's lifespan is shorter than others? I usually maintain it well...
After pressing the accelerator intermittently for about ten minutes, the car slowly started up.
After thinking for a while between going to the 4S store or going back to Guangdian Cat Cafe, Shen Cheng decided to go directly back to Guangdian Cat Cafe.
Since I have decided to replace the car and it is free, there is no need to spend money to repair this broken car.
What's more, Chen Cheng will not be assigned any tasks during this period, which is basically the same as retirement. You can take a taxi in Mio City, and there is no place where you need to drive yourself.
I drove the car with great difficulty and "crawled" back to the Light Spot Cat Cafe. I got out of the car and hurried back to the cat cafe carrying my things.
At this moment, Xi Ming was grinding coffee with a clear mind, looking very happy. When she heard the noise, she smiled and said without even looking up, "What would you like, sir? I recommend Xi Ming brand blended coffee. It tastes just as good as Manager Shen's~"
Hearing this, Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Then please give me a cup of Ximing brand blended coffee."
"Okay, sincere..." Before the quote was called out, Xi Ming suddenly felt something was wrong. When she looked up, she met Shen Cheng's half-smile eyes.
