Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Si Xue suddenly said.

"No, boss."

He replied calmly.

With her clear distinction between rewards and punishments and her commitment to keeping promises, Si Xue's performance has surpassed that of most bosses in reality, let alone in this metropolis where life is as cheap as paper.

He sighed simply because of the powerlessness of the weak in the face of the strong.

"As expected of humans, they are much more open-minded than these cows and horses."

Si Xue said.

The cattle and horses' hair stood on end, and they lowered their heads even further.

"Can you know what we're thinking?"

Liu Zheng asked the question directly.

"No, but I can sense your emotions. And it's not hard to guess, is it?"

Si Xue countered with a question.

"Yes."

He admitted it.

"Don't worry, as long as you can break that woman's defenses, my reward will satisfy you."

Si Xue made a promise to Liu Zheng, then hung up the phone.

"Give me money!"

The oxen and horses immediately got up and started yelling at him.

"What money?"

Liu Zheng pretended to be stupid.

"You said you'd give me a million if I got punished by the boss, plus a delivery driver's uniform."

The oxen and horses remember it all clearly.

"Yeah, but you weren't punished either, Boss."

He shrugged.

"Of course I'm there! I'm lying right there!"

The ox and horse roared angrily.

"That's your own choice to lie down."

Liu Zheng exposed it.

"And my ear got twisted too!"

"There's no bleeding, so this level of affection is just a caress for you, sir."

He doesn't acknowledge it.

"You little brat, trying to renege on your debt? Believe me or not, I'll rip my own ear off right now."

The oxen and horses were furious.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around, boss. Here, take this and buy some braised pig ears to nourish yourself."

Liu Zheng took out 10,000 yuan and gave it to him.

"Is this all you're going to give a beggar?"

The cattle and horses expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Is this okay?"

He gave another 10,000.

"Hmph, I'm never betting with you again. You humans have terrible sportsmanship when it comes to gambling!"

The cattle and horses walked resentfully toward the haystack.

"I don't know who plays Go, but they can take back dozens of times in one game."

Liu Zheng secretly rolled his eyes.

Are you thinking about me in your heart?

The oxen and horses suddenly turned around.

"No way, you can sense things too?"

If every leader could read minds of their subordinates, life would be unbearable.

"No, but I don't need mind reading to deal with you."

The ox and horse said proudly.

"You are mighty, boss! I am in awe!"

He prostrated himself on the ground.

"Hmph, watch out when you talk bad about me in the future, I'm watching you, you big boss."

The oxen and horses raised their hooves, making a staring gesture at you.

It just looks ridiculous that it uses the forked tip of its hoof as two fingers.

Liu Zheng glanced at his phone; it was 6:30 PM, an hour and a half until 8:00.

An auction lasts at least two or three hours, and even if he can stay outside because of Si Xue's mission, it will still take at least an hour to deliver the food.

Relying on orders that require mandatory delivery is unreliable, especially since there are fewer orders at night, so it's still necessary to find someone to place the order.

"Who are you looking for?"

Liu Zheng began sifting through his talent pool.

Kill Sauce is ruled out first, although with his abilities, he could probably order takeout for ten hours straight without any problem.

However, there has been no substantial progress in canceling the arrest warrant, and Liu Zheng felt really bad about making him make such a sacrifice.

Fishermen, novelists, and doctors from the Nile River—those who have ordered takeout—should also be excluded. You can't keep targeting the same person to fleece them; you'll end up fleecing them all, and if you push them too far, they might even hurt you.

We'll exclude those who aren't strong enough, like Niu Daji, Vampire Girl, and the Seasoning Quartet. Although they won't die if you use them, it will seriously affect your combat power.

"Ah."

He knows who to contact.

He picked up his phone and called Guokou Tangzi.

"Are you sober?"

Liu Zheng's first question was...

"My alcohol tolerance isn't that bad."

"I'll take the soup," Guo Kou Tangzi said irritably.

"But you still got drunk and almost messed things up."

He pointed out the problem.

"Didn't the Queen send Tomoko? In the end, it didn't cause any problems."

Guo Kou Tangzi said defiantly.

"Tomoko is Tomoko, and you are you. Or are you not the leader of the Extreme Flavor Group, but a member of the Pink Kingdom?"

Liu Zheng's tone gradually became stern.

"Humph."

Guo Kou Tangzi was speechless, but it was absolutely impossible for her to admit her mistake.

"Bring some scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili to Rose Street and wait for me. Order an hour's worth of takeout at 7:30."

he ordered.

"Why should I? I'm the boss of the Extreme Flavor Group."

The soup at the pot's edge stubbornly refused to speak.

"If you don't want to, you can hang up now, and you'll have to bear the consequences."

Liu Zheng's tone was even harsher than hers.

“I am a sentimental person. As long as it is someone I am close to, regardless of their background or ability, I want to help them move forward. I have this determination and confidence.”

He continued speaking before the soup in the pot could even open.

"But that doesn't mean I have no principles or will indulge you without limit."

"You challenged my authority last time with the garlic. This time, you messed things up again because of your drinking while escorting the medicine."

"I seriously doubt whether you want the Extreme Flavor Group to shine again, or if you just want to drag Onion, Ginger, Garlic and Spicy into playing gang playhouse with you."

His words were increasingly scathing.

"Human, don't go too far!"

Guo Kou Tangzi finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"What did you call me?"

Liu Zheng's voice was even louder than hers, startling the cows and horses that were pretending to be asleep, causing them to open their eyes.

"Is this how you address your benefactor? Without me, your Extreme Flavor Group would still be drinking soup made from bathwater at the Yakuza bathhouse, and Garlic Head would be a helpless idiot. Or worse, all five of you would have been taken back to the restaurant by my boss for midnight snacks."

"Tsk!"

The ox and horse smacked their lips, offering no rebuttal.

"And now you not only have the opportunity to be relisted, but you've also opened up a lot of connections, and even Garlic Head has turned back into the genius he used to be."

"Now you keep calling people 'human,' is this the kind of benevolence you have in the Extreme Flavor Group?"

Liu Zheng questioned him sternly.

".sorry."

After a long silence, Guo Kou Tangzi spoke softly.

"Speak louder, I didn't hear you."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Liu!"

Guo Kou Tangzi said loudly.

"Very good. Go get to work."

His tone suddenly calmed down, and then he hung up the phone.

I'm moving during the May Day holiday and need to take one day off.

I'm someone who doesn't buy much stuff anymore, but moving still exhausted me. It's so nice to have my own place.

The new apartment I rented is a two-bedroom, one-living room unit with the simplest kind of decoration, so the price is cheaper than other apartments of the same size, which is perfect for me.

The only downside is that the master bedroom doesn't have a power outlet and the second bedroom doesn't have a network port, so neither place is really comfortable.

In the end, I decided to stay in the second bedroom. After all, I don't play online games, and WiFi is enough for me.

Now the two cats no longer have to huddle in the small room and can run around freely in the living room.

My living environment has also been greatly improved, and I hope my condition will improve as well.

Liu Zheng is slowly getting better, and so am I. It's good that the novel and reality are in sync.

Many readers have said that this book is the author's autobiography, and I would like to clarify that here.

It's basically true.

Perhaps the day Liu Zheng is cured of ALS, my illness will also be cured.
