Adventurer Li Duhua has offered a trade: the Bulgari Serpenti Viper Ring in exchange for Scorpion Flesh. Do you agree to the trade?
Xi Xi was engrossed in her deductions when Li Duhua sent a transaction request.
Xi Xi couldn't help but chuckle after seeing the text recognized by the transaction system, then feigned disappointment and sighed, "Ah? It's not Cartier after all... Oh well..."
Li Duhua : "Ah right, right, I didn't realize it when you said that, hahaha, it's Bulgari."
Li Duhua : "This little dragon from Bulgari is also very beautiful, isn't it? Haha!"
"Keep acting, keep acting." Xi Xi rolled her eyes at the chat window.
Damn it... Serpenti Viper is Italian for snake-like or venomous snake, what does it have to do with dragons?
Xi Xi became even more certain that the ring did not belong to Li Duhua, and that he was definitely not the one who took the photo.
Xi Xi glanced at the chat box and sneered. After a brief moment of reasoning, she laid her cards on the table and said, "How about this, I won't make things difficult for you. Just pass on a message to him and tell him to give me the car refrigerator, okay?"
Xi Xi looked sly and calmly took a sip of water. Of course, she said that on purpose.
She no longer needed a car refrigerator, after all, she had just traded with Li Jinshao for a brand new small refrigerator.
That's just a way of deliberately trying to annoy the person on the other side.
Didn't that person always treat their car refrigerator like their lifeblood and boast about it on the public screen?
Yes, Xi Xi was referring to Lin Hao, the "daddy's boy" rich second-generation. Who else could it be but him? Xi Xi had complete faith in her intuition and reasoning.
Does Lin Hao think she's stupid? Xi Xi felt both angry and amused.
He was so stingy that he brought a nightlight to trade her for a large piece of scorpion meat.
If they had received even slightly better supplies, Xi Xi might have turned a blind eye.
"The world is full of wonders." Xi Xi shook her head helplessly and sighed as she deftly turned on the ice maker. One after another, pieces of greenish-yellow date-flavored fruit shaved ice were ready.
Xi Xi peeked out of the car, then got out and turned off the engine. She slowly moved the two giant pincers, which had been roasted to a golden brown and crispy color, out of the fire. After the rising heat subsided, she carefully chopped along the gaps in the pincers.
With a crisp sound, the hard shell cracked open instantly, revealing the tender and juicy scorpion meat inside.
Xi Xi deftly removed the scorpion meat from its shell and returned to the car.
It is said that the scorpion meat has a unique texture, somewhere between shrimp and crab, so Xi Xi divided the meat from the two claws into three portions.
She cut one of the scorpion meats into even small pieces, then sprinkled it with salt and pepper. The fresh and fragrant aroma immediately filled the car, making it mouthwatering.
The other piece was drizzled with ginger sauce. It has to be said that the fresh ginger we got today came in very well. The spiciness of the ginger and the freshness of the scorpion meat blended together to create a unique flavor.
For the last piece of scorpion meat, Xi Xi chose to preserve its original flavor, simply sprinkling it with a little salt for seasoning.
Xi Xi sat down and savored the scorpion meat. The texture was clear and delicate, the flesh firm yet distinct, and it shimmered with an enticing luster.
She chewed heartily while picking up the homemade chilled date juice next to her and taking a big gulp.
The cool, sweet date juice slid down my throat, instantly eliminating the greasiness in my mouth and perfectly complementing the flavor of the scorpion meat.
The date ice was much sweeter than she had imagined. After being frozen, the original sour taste was greatly reduced. It could be said that it was not a flaw at all, but rather transformed into a unique flavor.
Every bite offers a delightful experience of sweet and sour flavors dancing on the tongue, coupled with a cool and refreshing taste, making you feel as if you're in a cool orchard, with your entire mouth filled with a fresh and wonderful aroma.
Since she exposed him, Li Duhua has vanished without a trace and never replied to her messages again.
Xi Xi didn't seem to care at all. She shrugged lightly and restarted the autopilot function. Then she started eating the meat in an orderly manner, while glancing at the chat on the public screen for a bit of amusement.
Just as Xi Xi was enjoying the last bite of the salt and pepper scorpion meat, a series of eye-catching message notifications popped up on the screen. Somewhat puzzled, Xi Xi opened her private message interface, only to be met with a barrage of messages from that cool girl.
Adventurer Sallyman has gifted you a piece of dark chocolate. Would you like to accept it?
Adventurer Sallyman has gifted you a bottle of Coca-Cola.
Adventurer Sallyman has gifted you a jar of wheat biscuits. Do you wish to accept?
Adventurer Sallyman has gifted you a bag of gummy candies Do you accept?
Adventurer Sallyman is gifting you a box of Eggplant Ramen Do you accept it?
Adventurer Sallyman has gifted you a bag of konjac vegetables Do you accept it?
Sis, that's so cool...
Xi Xi was so shocked that she almost dropped her chopsticks.
She glanced at Sallyman's contact information and suddenly understood the kind of fun that comes with the female lead in a melodramatic CEO romance drama being inexplicably showered with banknotes by the male lead's mother.
If you want to exchange for comic books, just say so! Why are you being so polite and giving so much? Oh dear, I feel so bad!
However, Xi Xi was still very curious about the cool girl's motives. Could it be that there was some unspeakable secret hidden in this Doraemon comic book?
She shamelessly took out the comic book and began to carefully examine it, even holding it up to the sunlight streaming through the window, but she still couldn't find any clues.
Xi Xi couldn't help but feel puzzled. She looked again at the types and quantities of supplies sent by Shaliman and became even more confused. What had happened in just half a day?
Xi Xi (Ji): "Hello, did you find something to eat? Can you tell me what happened?" Although the other person was a cool girl, as the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face. Xi Xi wanted to get some information out of her.
There was a moment of silence on the other end, but a message was eventually sent.
Sallyman (Ping): "Yes, I encountered a supply depot."
Xi Xi was stunned for a moment, her heart churning like a stormy sea. She immediately sat up straight, her expression grave, and asked seriously, "A supply station? What kind of station is that?"
Sallyman (Ping): "A vending machine."
Xi Xi (Ji): "A vending machine? What's inside?"
Sallyman (Ping): "Snacks can be bought with survival points."
Sallyman (Ping): "These are for you, please accept them. May I ask if you can return my comic book?"
Xi Xi remained silent, her mind already in turmoil, countless thoughts flashing through her head.
It turns out that the supplies at the supply stations are not provided for free, and survival points are not just a numerical concept; they can also be used to exchange for goods.
