Chapter 3 - NICE PERSON

"Forget it!"

"Besides, it's still a society ruled by law. If I just kill her like this, it would be too easy for her!"

"The apocalypse hasn't arrived yet; I need to let her savor it slowly!"

Under everyone's gaze, Hu You finally put the necklace on her.

Ye Wanqiu turned around, her slender fingers resting on her collarbone, a wide smile on her face: "How is it? Does it look good?"

"It looks good."

Hu You nodded.

In terms of looks, Ye Wanqiu had a good foundation, a great figure, and her makeup skills were superb. Otherwise, she wouldn't have become a minor internet celebrity with tens of thousands of followers.

Of course, if the apocalypse arrived, these things would only turn into sharp swords aimed at her!

If Hu You hadn't risked his life to protect her back then, she wouldn't have survived even a week, let alone the heavy rain period!

But who knew what happened later… Hu You shook his head, shaking the images out of his mind: "The movie is starting. Let's not wait for the next showing; let's just go eat."

"Okay!"

Ye Wanqiu responded happily, even linking her arm through Hu You's: "What should we eat?"

"Yutan, I guess."

Hu You casually uttered a name: "Haven't you always wanted to eat at that place?"

It was the most high-end restaurant in the entire city.

The average cost per person was around four digits, and if you added some top-tier ingredients and drinks, it could easily soar to five digits!

Last time, Ye Wanqiu went there with a rich sugar daddy and showed off about it on her Moments for three days!

"Really?!"

Ye Wanqiu's eyes lit up.

She didn't even wait for Hu You's answer, nor did she ask him where he got so much money. She immediately pulled out her phone to make a call: "I have their contact information; I'll make the reservation!"

"Mm."

Hu You nodded, feeling the softness on his arm was somewhat chilling.

In the evening.

As soon as the two arrived at the restaurant, a waiter immediately greeted them.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Ye?"

"Yes, I am."

Ye Wanqiu replied with her head held high.

"Hello, Miss Ye."

The waiter bowed respectfully: "Private room number nine has been reserved for you. Welcome."

"Okay, lead the way."

Led by the waiter, the two arrived at the private room.

Ye Wanqiu immediately took the menu and started ordering, while Hu You picked up his phone and began recording.

"Do you have any wild large yellow croaker today?"

"We happen to have two today. The price is 3980 yuan per jin. One is 2.5 jin, and the other is 3 jin."

Ye Wanqiu subtly glanced at Hu You, who was playing on his phone, and seeing no reaction from him, she immediately made a decision!

"I'll take both!"

"Both?"

The waiter was stunned for a moment: "Miss Ye, for two people, one should be enough."

"It's fine."

Ye Wanqiu held the menu, continuing to scan other dishes: "My younger brother isn't here today; I'm getting these to go for him."

She then looked at Hu You: "Darling, is that okay?"

That single word 'Darling' almost triggered Hu You's PTSD!

Younger brother?

In his previous life, he had never seen her have a younger brother.

He could only force a smile: "It's fine."

"That's great! I love you the most! Mwah!"

A three-part act of coquetry ended.

Ye Wanqiu continued ordering: "What about the Emperor Crab?"

"We have that too, the price…"

"Get two!"

"Millet sea cucumber, four bowls!"

"White truffle roasted duck, four portions!"

"Two-head soft-boiled abalone, four pieces!"

...Fifteen minutes later.

Ye Wanqiu finally finished ordering.

Hu You glanced at the price on the printed menu… Well, well, well!

Eighty thousand eight hundred, plus a 10% service charge, made it exactly eighty-eight thousand eight hundred eighty-eight!

Seeing that Hu You had no reaction to her ordering so many dishes, Ye Wanqiu's eyes sparkled with little stars, and she proactively raised her red wine glass: "Dearest, come, cheers."

"Come, cheers."

Hu You smiled and took a sip of red wine.

Waiting for the dishes to be served.

One after another, top-tier delicacies were brought to the table.

Hu You didn't touch his chopsticks until… "Dearest, are you still playing on your phone? Eat."

"Alright."

As soon as he heard her say that, Hu You started devouring!

Of course, his phone was still recording and placed beside him.

They ate for two hours before the meal finally concluded.

The food in front of Hu You was completely gone, while Ye Wanqiu still had quite a bit left.

"Check, please."

As Ye Wanqiu's command fell, the waiter came in with the packed food and handed the bill to Hu You.

"What is it?"

Hu You looked at the waiter, asking somewhat puzzled: "The reservation was made by that lady, the dishes were ordered by that lady, and she even called for the bill."

"Why are you giving the bill to me?"

"Apologies, sir."

The waiter immediately apologized, turned, and walked over to Ye Wanqiu.

"Hu You!"

Ye Wanqiu immediately slammed the table and stood up: "What do you mean?!"

"What do I mean?"

Hu You feigned ignorance, as if suddenly enlightened, and pointed his phone camera at himself.

"Oh! Right, thank you, Miss Ye, for the treat!"

With that, he pressed stop recording and smiled at Ye Wanqiu: "I recorded the entire meal, Miss Ye. You wouldn't want this video to be seen by your fans, would you?"

"You!"

Ye Wanqiu valued her reputation above all else!

Even though she was just a minor internet celebrity, if this video were to spread, her career as an influencer would be ruined.

"Good! Very good!"

Ye Wanqiu laughed in anger: "I never said I was treating you to this meal, did I? We can just split the bill!"

"Hey! Don't!"

Hu You opened the video and fast-forwarded to the part where Ye Wanqiu told him to eat.

The video played.

"See, you told me to eat, so I picked up my chopsticks."

Ye Wanqiu's face flushed with anger.

No wonder this scoundrel didn't touch his chopsticks earlier!

So he was waiting for this moment!

"Thank you again, Miss Ye, for treating me to dinner."

Hu You then stood up at the opportune moment, used his spatial backpack to retrieve the necklace from her neck, turned to leave, and didn't forget to give her a thumbs-up.

"Miss Ye, you're really quite nice!"

Turned, closed the door!

Bang!

Ye Wanqiu's voice came from inside the private room.

Her tone was still condescending: "I don't want the packed food; return it for me. For the remaining money, I'll leave the necklace here as collateral, tomorrow… Wait! Where's my necklace?!"

A faint smile appeared on Hu You's lips.

That bitch ate and drank my things in the previous life, and in the end, she even ate me up!

This is just the interest!

When the apocalypse arrives, I'll slowly settle the rest of the accounts with you!

He turned and left.

It was already nine in the evening.

The streetlights were just coming on.

In the bustling city, countless people began their nightlife.

They didn't know, couldn't even imagine, that seven days later… No, to be precise, 166 hours later…

The world would be completely different.

By this time, Boss Tian should have already left work.

Now… it's my time to work!

Hu You walked towards the teahouse.

When he arrived, he just saw the teahouse lights turning off.

After Boss Tian came downstairs, he got into a Mercedes and left.

Hu You waited for a while, and after confirming that there was no one in the teahouse, he changed into a different set of clothes from his spatial backpack and quietly approached the main entrance.

With a thought, the main door instantly disappeared.

He stepped into the teahouse and then put the main door back in place.

He turned on his phone flashlight, went upstairs, and quickly found where Boss Tian kept his money.

The half-human-tall safe was right behind the tearoom, without any concealment.

Hu You repeated his previous method, putting the safe door into his spatial inventory, and the contents inside instantly came into view.

A four-tier safe.

The bottom tier held cash, estimated to be around five million yuan.

The second tier was filled with gold bars, 500 grams each, totaling over a hundred bars!

The third tier contained various contracts.

When he looked at the fourth tier, Hu You's pupils suddenly constricted!

That was… a gun!
