But Yang Yao's smugness didn't last long. He suddenly realized that even the sword box wasn't that powerful in this technologically advanced world!

This immediately dampened Yang Yao's spirits. He couldn't be arrogant. He should work quietly and be an honest person. If he became complacent with such a small achievement, he would only be the one to suffer!

He obediently returned to the table and continued hand-polishing some bullet casings. Now that he had produced liquid hydrogen and a helium conversion device, making some other self-defense weapons for himself wasn't out of the question.

We need to at least make a few hydrogen grenades first. Once we have the molds, we can try making some hydrogen bullets.

However, with the life-saving equipment, Yang Yao couldn't help but hum a song while working. Things weren't actually that bad, right?

Several days passed like this, and it was August 5th. Today was also a special day—Yang Yao received his salary!

After a month of hard work slaughtering pigs, Yang Yao earned six thousand yuan, a substantial sum. The factory manager, recognizing Yang Yao's diligence, also gave him a bonus of several hundred yuan.

At this point, the purchasing power of six thousand yuan is still quite strong, so Yang Yao was naturally very satisfied. With money, some things became easier to handle, and Yang Yao could also buy things that were a little troublesome.

Before that, Yang Yao wanted to eat something better. He was used to eating communal meals at the factory every day; they filled his stomach, but the taste... well, you'd have to try it to know.

As evening approached, Yang Yao inquired about a decent hot pot restaurant and decided to have hot pot there.

Upon entering the store and seeing the packed crowd and spacious interior, Yang Yao knew he had probably come to the right place.

After asking the waitress for a table, Yang Yao was led to a table under the waitress's gaze, which seemed to want to devour him. He ordered some vegetables and meat, and then buried his head in his food.

To be honest, after his health improved, Yang Yao's appetite also started to grow bigger and bigger. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have to pay for meals at the factory, he probably would have eaten all the money he earned.

"Hey everyone, today I'm trying out this restaurant's hot pot! If you want to have dinner with me, send me a rocket! Love you all! Mwah!"

Huh? Yang Yao looked up in confusion. Who the hell speaks in such a high-pitched voice? How disgusting!

What caught Yang Yao's eye was a pretty girl in a school uniform, with a few light stubbles painted on her face and a fluffy ear headdress.

She was taking pictures of herself with her phone, her alluring pink lips pouting, which made her look quite cute—no, cute with a touch of flirtatiousness.

Is this girl cosplaying as Naruto? Yang Yao frowned slightly. Does Naruto even exist in this world? Probably not, right?

The girl sat at the table next to Yang Yao, and she was also alone. Yang Yao thought about it carefully and, considering the girl's appearance, he began to wonder if she was the super soldier named Su Xiaoli.

Whenever Yang Yao thought of Su Xiaoli, he pictured her nine tails and the purple tattoo on her back.

Wow, animal ears, no clothes, tail, tattoos, goodness, this is a bit overwhelming!

Yang Yao's intense gaze caught Su Xiaoli's attention. There was no way she could ignore him staring at her so intently; as a woman—no, a girl—it was hard for Su Xiaoli not to notice.

It's that so-called woman's sixth sense, not to mention that Su Xiaoli is also a super soldier.

Su Xiaoli turned her head and saw Yang Yao staring at her ears with curious eyes, but Su Xiaoli ignored it.

From the moment Su Xiaoli saw Yang Yao, she was immediately drawn to his stunning good looks.

"so hot!"

"Hey handsome, wanna grab some food?" Su Xiaoli greeted Yang Yao.

Although Su Xiaoli's real target was a tycoon, she couldn't help but want to get to know someone as handsome as Yang Yao.

"Huh? What are you saying, Little Tanuki?" "You must have fallen for him!" "Didn't we agree to be each other's angels?"

In Su Xiaoli's live stream, messages flew everywhere, so Su Xiaoli had to urgently shut down the live stream. A bunch of simps can't disturb my meeting of handsome young men!

Hearing Su Xiaoli's words, Yang Yao could only sigh silently to herself. She didn't want to get involved with Su Xiaoli. Since Su Xiaoli would be entering the Super God Academy later, it meant that she was usually under the Super God Academy's surveillance.

He didn't want to be discovered by the Super God Academy for provoking Su Xiaoli, and more importantly, this girl had some connection with Sun Wukong.

So Yang Yao didn't answer Su Xiaoli's invitation, but instead pointed to Su Xiaoli's ear and asked:

"That ear on your head?"

These words immediately made Su Xiaoli panic. Had Yang Yao seen through her? Impossible!

Normally, no one would ask her about her ears so directly. At most, they would assume it was just a hobby. How could this handsome guy possibly recognize her when he first met her?

"Haha, you mean this? This is a headdress. What do you think? Isn't it cute?"

"Headwear? I don't believe it unless you take it off and let me see!" Yang Yao naturally knew that Su Xiaoli's ears were real, but he didn't believe she could pull her ears off like a horse.

I'm so angry!

"Haha, hey handsome, don't worry about such trivial things. Are you alone too? How about we share a table?"

Su Xiaoli changed the subject, clearly wanting Yang Yao to stop thinking about her ear problem. At the same time, she extended a finger, and where Yang Yao couldn't see, a tiny pink glow appeared at the fingertip.

That was an ability passed down through generations in Su Xiaoli's family. According to ancient sayings, it was the ability of a fox spirit, which had a strong bewitching effect.

At least Su Xiaoli used it to entice many fans to send her gifts, and clearly she now intends to use the same tactic against Yang Yao.

But who is Yang Yao? He's a man who hasn't had a girlfriend in twenty years. Despite his good looks, his rational nature makes him clueless about romance.

Moreover, the high intelligence attribute itself makes Yang Yao immune to some of Su Xiaoli's abilities, so Su Xiaoli's charm had no effect on Yang Yao at all.

"Um, sorry, I'm already full. Maybe next time, we can order together again sometime!"

Yang Yao really likes beautiful women, but he also hates trouble, especially someone as troublesome as Su Xiaoli.

If he could beat Sun Wukong, that would be fine, but now, let alone Sun Wukong, he wouldn't even be able to beat a hair on his head!

What's the point of fighting? We can't win!

He couldn't afford to offend them, absolutely couldn't afford to offend them. For his own safety, Yang Yao just wanted to leave immediately.

Yang Yao quickly ate a few more bites of food, grabbed a few tissues, and rushed to the counter to pay the bill, leaving Su Xiaoli standing there blankly watching him leave.

How could this be? This person actually ignored my charm?

However, Yang Yao's unusual situation immediately piqued Su Xiaoli's curiosity. After all, since she awakened this ability, no man had remained indifferent to her.

That man was impotent, but he still got excited when he saw her.

But why is it that such a handsome young man is oblivious to her?

Hehe, man, you've caught my attention, Su Xiaoli!
