"O'Neil, want a steamed bun?"Mo Youqian dangled a breakfast bag in his hand, grinning wretchedly at April, who was squatting by the shop entrance in a daze.
"Uncle, you know I could totally sue you for sexual harassment for saying that, right?"April looked up at the sky, exhausted in both body and spirit.
"You even know that?"Mo Youqian leaned back in surprise. With how subtle his teasing was, how did she even catch it?
"My boss, you know? These little tricks of yours are something he's used to doing on a daily basis."April pointed at the store door, which was still firmly shut.
"So Little Brother Li really is a man of passion! By the way, what are you doing squatting at the door?"Since they were neighbors, Mo Youqian always came over to chat whenever he passed by.
But this old thief was just like Pietro—his intentions were never about the conversation!
Dealing with these two clowns, one old and one young, April really felt her life was far too difficult.
If she had known earlier, she would have shamelessly clung to her job at the TV station instead of quitting!
"Here—these are the clothes I bought for you yesterday."Before she could contemplate whether she truly made a mistake, Jill walked out of the shop holding several clothing bags.
"Oh my God! A Burberry shirt!"April instantly forgot all her troubles. She snatched the bags from Jill with lightning speed.
Her movements were so fast that both Jill and Mo Youqian froze for a moment, unable to react.
"Thank you, boss lady!"April lifted the bags joyfully and dashed back to her room.With so many expensive, beautiful clothes suddenly in her hands, if she didn't try them on immediately, she would be tormented to death by her own excitement.
As for her job?
April didn't think this rundown shop would actually have any customers anyway.
Besides, with both the boss and the boss lady present, staying in the shop would probably just get in the way.
"May I ask who you are?"Mo Youqian, who had been preparing to head home, widened his eyes at Jill as she walked out. The question slipped out uncontrollably.
April was very pretty, yes.But Jill was clearly on another level.
Not only were Jill's facial features more in line with East Asian aesthetics, but her figure was also something April simply couldn't compete with.
Nothing could be done—this sort of thing was determined by natural-born advantages.If you wanted to fight it, your only option would be surgery!
"I'm Jill. Jill Valentine. Li's girlfriend."Jill extended her hand in greeting.
"In front of you stands the current head of the Southern Mo Family Fist—Mo Youqian. A pleasure to meet you!"Mo Youqian immediately dropped the lecherous old man act and straightened his posture.With hands clasped, he saluted Jill formally.
If April had seen him like this, she would absolutely never believe this upright martial artist was the same sloppy old man who joked around every day.
"So what Li said about this place being full of hidden masters was actually true," Jill muttered quietly, seeing the sudden shift in his aura—like a true grandmaster.
Li Qingyuan had told her before arriving that the world they lived in was full of powerful figures, people who could destroy the universe with a flick of their hand. She nodded and pretended to understand, but deep down she didn't fully believe it.
But now…A random creepy old man on the street had just given her a deep sense of danger.
Injected with the improved T-Virus reagent and equipped with her combat calculator, she was no longer a normal human.Yet her battle calculator had predicted a 93% chance of losing if she fought this old man.
"I said, you broke old man—what are you doing blocking my door?"As Jill and Mo Youqian stood there silently, Li Qingyuan casually pushed the door open and walked out.
"My apologies, my apologies! I got excited, just excited!"With just one sentence from Li Qingyuan, it was like someone pressed a mysterious button—Mo Youqian suddenly hunched over, his grandmaster aura collapsing instantly, reverting back into a wretched old man.
As an expert of internal martial arts, Mo Youqian was extremely sensitive to people's aura.Jill's T-Virus-enhanced body emanated a strange, intimidating presence.
When she extended her hand earlier, he instinctively reacted to the pressure.
"It's almost nine o'clock. Aren't you supposed to bring breakfast to your wife? Or are you planning to kneel on the washboard again today?"Li Qingyuan glanced at his watch and teased him.
"Holy crap!"Reminded by those words, Mo Youqian finally remembered he still had the sacred duty of delivering breakfast to his wife.
If that tigress of his found out he delayed the task because he was flirting with women on the street… she'd skin him alive!
"What a strange person," Jill said with a smile as he disappeared in a puff of panic.
"Don't mind him. What's the plan for today?"Li Qingyuan didn't bother looking at the fleeing old man.
He had known since moving into Chinatown that Mo Youqian was abnormal. After all, with landlords like the Landlord and Landlady from Kung Fu Hustle-type legends, it was impossible not to stand out.
But he never cared.This was the Marvel world—gods were everywhere, demigods were common.The Landlord-Landlady duo were top-tier experts to ordinary people, but among superheroes? They barely counted.
As for learning internal cultivation from them?
At first he was interested, but after a few drinking sessions he learned that before practicing internal energy, one had to stand in horse stance for ten years.
Three hours a day.For ten years.Rain or shine.
With that much time and willpower, he might as well grab two superheroes and run dungeon missions—it'd be far simpler.
"I didn't get enough shopping done last night. Let's go to Sixth Avenue again today. I think there were a few outfits I really liked."Jill drew circles on his chest with her finger.
"We're going again?"Li Qingyuan's face paled instantly.Last night they walked until every store had closed.Now she wanted to go again right after waking up?
Truly, when it came to shopping, women could not be understood through normal logic.
"By the way… who's inside that car across the street? Why are they staring at us?"Jill leaned against him and whispered into his ear.
"Of course we're going! Shopping is a woman's nature!"
"Alright, alright…"Li Qingyuan raised his hand in surrender and turned back into the store—probably to get his wallet.
A dark-red vintage car was parked at the street corner.Its windows were covered with blackout film; from the outside, you absolutely couldn't see inside.
But Jill, trained in a post-apocalyptic world full of danger, easily sensed the surveillance.The person inside thought they were flawless—but they had already been exposed.
