Chapter 693 - Trap Dodging Master (1/2)

“System, I only asked because I have full trust in you,” Yuan Zhou said seriously.

The system was rendered speechless by this guy who was acting so shamelessly just to save money.

Suddenly, it grew silent. Of course, Yuan Zhou was never one to feel awkward in such a situation. He directly spoke again.

“What do you say? I take that your silence means you are agreeing with me? True, I feel that my request is extremely fair and reasonable as well. After all, you had just scammed me not that long ago. It’s not too much of me to ask for some compensation, right?” Yuan Zhou paused slightly before continuing after seeing that the system was still not replying.

“Well, that’s a deal then. You can change the menu tomorrow morning. It is still too early to change it now,” Yuan Zhou said after checking the time.

If the system was capable of thinking on its own, it would probably answer with a sneer like a human would. After all, sneering in itself was an act that carried a multitude of meanings with it.

“Xiaoyun had left for her class. Should I hire another waitress?” Yuan Zhou started thinking about something else. In his opinion, his discussion with the system had ended.

“Hmm, I think it has been quite a while since Sun Ming came. I wonder if he is still courting his goddess. I should try asking him about it,” Yuan Zhou was having a hard time sticking to a single line of thought. Suddenly, he thought of the incident where Sun Ming requested for his help with his goddess.

He took out his phone and directly called Sun Ming.

“What else do you want, what do you want. A single text message from you is enough to bring me sorrow…” a song started playing as the ringtone.

“Did this guy get rejected? Looks like his EQ is still too low, to fail even after my help.” The moment Yuan Zhou heard the sorrowful ringtone, he started picturing the scene where Sun Ming was rejected by his goddess.

“Yuan Zhou, you have finally thought of calling me? Are you going to treat me to a meal?” Sun Ming spoke teasingly the moment he answered the call.

“Are you fine?” Yuan Zhou said after a short silence.

“I’m fine. Why should I be not fine?” Sun Ming answered doubtfully.

“So you’re doing good now?” Yuan Zhou asked again.

“Are you alright? Why are you calling me to ask if I’m fine?” Sun Ming checked the caller ID on the phone in doubt to confirm that the caller was indeed Yuan Zhou before asking.

“It’s fine to get dumped by girls. I will treat you to a meal. You can order anything you want,” Yuan Zhou offered like the loyal friend he was since he believed Sun Ming was hiding his emotions.

“What in the world? Who got dumped? I haven’t even gotten into a relationship yet,” Sun Ming shot back at Yuan Zhou.

“What’s with your ringtone then?” Yuan Zhou frowned.

“This is the default ringtone. Do you know that your ringtone is the Little Apple?” Sun Ming grumbled.

“I see. Well, forget about the meal then,” Yuan Zhou frankly said.

“No way. You still owe me a meal,” Sun Ming suddenly said with a solemn tone.

Yuan Zhou remained silent and did not say anything. Inwardly, he was trying to recall if that was true.

“Have you forgotten how you scr*wed me the other day? You nearly sent my goddess packing,” Sun Ming would still be angry whenever he thought of that.

“What do you mean? I was doing you a favor there,” Yuan Zhou firmly said.

“Hoho, you call that helping? Are you helping to scare my goddess off?” Sun Ming rolled his eyes.

“So has your goddess severed contact with you?” Yuan Zhou asked.

“No.” Sun Ming answered with a firm tone.

“Yes, that’s why I said I did you a favor there,” Yuan Zhou righteously said.

“The only reason she’s still talking to me is because of my high EQ, because I know how to conduct myself,” Sun Ming felt like palming his face.

“Since your goddess is still talking to you, I don’t see a problem. Anyway, goodbye,” Yuan Zhou said definitively before ending the call.

“This slimy Yuan Zhou, he’s quite fast when it comes to escaping,” Sun Ming muttered while looking at the screen on his phone.

“With my brilliance, I have once again dodged Sun Ming’s trap,” Yuan Zhou muttered in satisfaction while staring at his phone.
