Chapter 6 A Life of Immortality
Su Peixue held a cup of Youlan Latte and looked in the direction of the school gate.
She left without taking any photos with her classmates.
During her three years of high school, she hardly interacted with her classmates and was usually all alone with no friends.
However, during her senior year of high school, many boys still tried to get close to her.
Because Su Peixue blossomed into womanhood that year, a girl changes drastically as she grows up.
In her first year of high school, she was very ordinary. By her second year, she was starting to show signs of becoming a beauty, and by her third year, when she was an adult, she had blossomed into an extremely beautiful woman.
And suddenly, boys started approaching her, even though no one had paid her any attention before.
By this time, Su Peixue had developed a solitary personality.
Lin Ran was an accident.
At this moment, Lin Ran and Fatty Sun walked out of the school carrying sacks.
Su Peixue's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to hand the milk tea bag to Lin Ran.
"I'll buy you a drink."
Lin Ran was stunned for a moment.
A cup of this trendy milk tea costs more than 10 yuan.
"Thanks."
But this time he didn't refuse; instead, he accepted it.
I offered her instant noodles yesterday, and refusing was to save her money. But now that I've already bought them and can't return them, refusing again would hurt her pride.
Seeing that Lin Ran had accepted the drink, Su Peixue breathed a sigh of relief, and a rare smile bloomed on her pretty face.
"Ran-ge, who's this beautiful girl?"
Sun Pangzi, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.
This girl is so beautiful! Her face is so pure and innocent, and with that beauty mark at the corner of her eye, she's both innocent and alluring.
Even Ye Shixuan, the class beauty, paled in comparison to her.
And she was wearing the school uniform of No. 5 Middle School. How come I've never seen this pretty girl at school before?
At this moment, Fatty Sun suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He was startled by Su Peixue's cold gaze.
What's going on?
The way that beautiful woman looked at Ran Ge just now wasn't at all this cold!
That's terrifying!
"This is my good friend, Su Peixue."
Lin Ran introduced them: "This is Sun Kai, my buddy. He helped me carry these study materials out."
Su Peixue nodded slightly, her expression not as cold as before, but still very calm.
Sun Pangzi thought to himself, no wonder Ran Ge is not interested in Ye Shixuan anymore. With such an ice beauty, who would be interested in anyone else?
However, he wasn't envious at all. The girl's personality was just too strange. Just standing next to her made him feel very intimidated.
"Now, before the second-year high school students have their summer break, let's organize and categorize all these materials and then print them out. Go to my family's small supermarket; we have a computer and a printer right there."
Lin Ran took Su Peixue and Fatty Sun back to his own supermarket.
This was a supermarket of about 100 square meters, selling cigarettes, alcohol, snacks, and daily necessities. It wasn't until later, when snack shops like "Snack Busy" opened, that the income from the small family supermarket decreased.
However, it survived thanks to community group buying, and the small supermarket in the community became a self-pickup point for the items purchased through group buying.
Actually, his parents had already retired by then, but they continued to run the shop so that they could save more money for Lin Ran's future wife.
However, Lin Ran didn't understand.
Why is it that my savings for a wife are increasing but I'm finding it increasingly insufficient?
They wanted a house, a car, this and that, and in the end, marriage became a gamble that took the whole family on. Besides themselves, they even had to gamble away their parents' savings for their funerals.
That's fucking weird.
Today, for the first time ever, I saw my mom not playing mahjong, but sitting at the supermarket counter minding the shop.
"Mom, why are you minding the shop yourself today?" Lin Ran asked, somewhat surprised, as she tossed her graduation documents onto the counter.
"Cashier Xiao Zhao went back to her hometown to get married and quit. Sigh, we really need to hire a cashier to manage the store quickly!"
Xu Wanru yawned listlessly, then her eyes lit up when she saw the classmate following behind Lin Ran.
Sun Pangzi and Lin Ran have been classmates since elementary school. He used to come over often to freeload snacks, so Xu Wanru naturally knew him.
However, she had never seen that girl before.
A girl this beautiful would attract everyone's attention, and Xu Wanru was no exception.
"Hello, Auntie," Fatty Sun greeted respectfully.
Su Peixue felt inexplicably nervous under Xu Wanru's gaze, and obediently greeted her as "Auntie."
"Whose daughter is this? She's so beautiful."
Xu Wanru praised them generously, then took out two bags of Lay's potato chips and gave them to Su Peixue and Fatty Sun.
There's never a shortage of food in the supermarket.
This is why Fatty Sun considers Lin Ran a life-or-death friendship, because he used to love coming here to freeload when he was a kid.
Fatty Sun naturally accepted the snacks and thanked him.
Su Peixue asked softly, "Auntie, how much?"
Xu Wanru was taken aback for a moment, then waved her hand and laughed, "I'm giving your adorable daughter potato chips for free."
Su Peixue blushed slightly.
As soon as she came in, she was praised for her looks and cuteness, something no one had ever said to her before.
Moreover, this person was Lin Ran's mother, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
"Thank you, Auntie."
"You can eat as many snacks as you like in the supermarket. I have something to do first, so I'll have to leave the store for you." Xu Wanru said with a smile and then slipped away.
Lin Ran shook his head helplessly; it was obvious he was going to play mahjong again.
However, since the three of them would be busy at the supermarket for a long time anyway, it wouldn't hurt to help watch the store while they were at it.
"Oh, right, son, wait a minute, put up a notice for a cashier job at the door. The salary is three thousand."
Xu Wanru turned around and gave a word of advice.
A salary of 3000 yuan isn't high, but these days, for an ordinary small supermarket to pay its cashier that much is quite generous.
Some chain supermarkets outside only pay around 2000 yuan a month.
After Xu Wanru left, Lin Ran took out a poster paper from the drawer and prepared to write a notice with a marker, but Su Peixue called out to her.
"Lin Ran, can I?"
The girl spoke, her lips moving slightly.
"You can write it, that's fine."
Su Peixue gave Lin Ran a long, sullen look: "What I mean is, can I apply for a cashier job?"
When she heard Xu Wanru say that she was hiring and that the monthly salary was 3,500 yuan, she was extremely tempted.
Only then did he muster the courage to ask Lin Ran.
There are three months of summer vacation. If you can work part-time here for three months, you can earn more than 10,000 yuan, which is enough to cover your tuition and living expenses for your first year of university.
"If you don't find it boring, you can go ahead. Your daily activities will be limited to this small supermarket. Besides working at the checkout, you can only play on the computer and eat some free snacks," Lin Ran said.
Su Peixue blinked her big eyes.
Is this just boredom?
Isn't this the life of a god?
