Meng Yinhua, who finally realized what was happening, tried to go over and stop them but was pushed aside by Yin Fenglian. His head almost hit the corner of the shoe cabinet.
Now, Meng Yinhua was truly furious. He stood up, ready to open the door and shout for Shen Ci’s help, but the scene before him stunned him.
Meng Chuyue, using her hands and feet, knocked down everyone except him and Meng Lixing one by one.
Those on the floor groaned as they nursed their injuries, too shocked to curse or complain.
Meng Chuyue dusted off her hands, returned to her room, gathered all her clothes into a small sack, and walked to the front door. She softly said to Meng Yinhua, "Uncle Yinhua, I’m going to stay outside for a few days. It would be a trouble for you to keep an eye on the house."
Meng Yinhua blankly nodded, "Okay."
She opened the door; it had been exactly ten minutes.
Meng Chuyue smiled at Shen Ci at the door, "Come with me to the Fruit Store."
Shen Ci naturally wouldn’t refuse.
He drove Meng Chuyue to the entrance of the Fruit Store. Just as he was about to get out of the car, Meng Chuyue said, "I’ll be right back. Don’t bother getting out. I wouldn’t want my two colleagues to fall for you."
Shen Ci was about to say, "Do you really keep that close an eye on me?"
But Meng Chuyue added, "Of course, you can sneak a peek first, and if you do take a liking to either of them, I can help you two get together."
Meng Chuyue’s words were sincere.
Tong Wen and Xia Ping were both straightforward and soft-charming; they had lovely personalities and looked good too. Meng Chuyue would be happy to see Shen Ci get along with either of them.
Shen Ci didn’t expect her to say this. He turned around, puzzled, and saw her straightforward expression, not at all sarcastic, and his heart soured.
Maybe he had been wishful thinking after all.
She had always been uninterested in him.
So what should he do?
Should he pursue her until she becomes interested or just let go?
Meng Chuyue had no idea Shen Ci was thinking all this; she didn’t want to delay him any longer and quickly entered the Fruit Store.
Tong Wen and Xia Ping were overjoyed to see her.
"Ah, Chuyue, you finally came! If you hadn’t arrived soon, those who want the quality fruits would have torn down the shop."
"Yeah, yeah, Chuyue. Xiao Wen isn’t exaggerating. That’s exactly what’s happening."
Meng Chuyue laughed, "Ha ha... you’ve worked hard. It’s my fault for not arranging it well. Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll keep more quality fruits in the storage from now on. If I can’t come, you can put them out yourselves."
Xia Ping smiled and nodded, "Yes, I was just about to suggest that."
Meng Chuyue nodded, "I’ve already moved the quality fruits upstairs last night. I’ll go get them now."
Saying this, Meng Chuyue went up to her temporary bedroom on the second floor.
Of course, there were no Space fruits there.
She was just using a secluded spot to retrieve fruits from her space.
Carrying twenty kilograms per box of Space fruit, two boxes at a time, she brought down a total of three times. Meng Chuyue handed over one hundred and twenty kilograms of Space fruit to Tong Wen and Xia Ping, "This is the extra supply promised to customers. From tomorrow, continue with the everyday limit of twenty kilograms. If today’s fruits are not all sold, count the leftovers as an added quantity for tomorrow."
"Got it, I understand."
Tong Wen and Xia Ping were ecstatic; business had been getting better these past two days, and their jobs were secure.
Meng Chuyue carried out three more trips and, after storing another one hundred and twenty kilograms of Space fruit in the warehouse, she bundled two large boxes, each holding thirty kilograms of Space fruit, with rope. Carrying a box in one hand and three mesh bags of golden jade melons in the other, she hurried downstairs.
Golden jade was a small-fruited watermelon, each weighing about five kilograms.
Meng Chuyue had loaded three into each mesh bag.
