She needed to buy some heavy things today. Coincidentally, Zheng Ren was chatting after surgery, so she asked Zheng Ren to go with her.
It was almost time to get off work. Zheng Ren changed his clothes and went back to the department to pack up before going to find Xie Yiren.
Zheng Ren did not need to worry about the food and necessities at home. Occasionally, he would go to the supermarket as a way to relax. In fact, Zheng Ren was a little embarrassed. He left the housework to Xie Yiren and he really did not have to do it.
Therefore, even if he had to face the crowded supermarket today, he still happily agreed.
Although he had the thought of facing death, as soon as he entered the supermarket, Zheng Ren's head buzzed and he almost fainted.
There were simply too many people. It was so noisy and annoying.
If not for holding Xie Yiren's hand, Zheng Ren was afraid that he would have turned around and left without hesitation. As for what he wanted to buy, he had long forgotten.
"The soy sauce, vinegar, and salt are almost out. While you have time, let's carry it back together," Xie Yiren said as she leaned on Zheng Ren's arm.
"Okay, I'll be in charge of pushing the cart."
"Boss, don't you need to pay the bill?" Su Yun said behind him.
"…" Zheng Ren chuckled.
There were many people in the supermarket after work. Although it was not like there were discounted goods or free eggs during holidays, there were rows of elderly people lining up here. This was the upper limit of Zheng Ren's tolerance.
If he saw a bunch of old people lining up … Zheng Ren's eyes would be filled with red System panels. He would feel dizzy just looking at them.
Even so, he had to rely on the blessing of Xie Yiren's halo to barely endure it.
Looking at the dazzling lineup of goods, Zheng Ren's eyes were a little unfocused and there was no spirit at all. He glanced at the System panel. His energy was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even if he was wearing a lead apron during surgery, it would not drop so quickly. Zheng Ren sighed. This weakness of his was really quite obvious.
He did not know if 1345 points of energy could last until the end of the shopping. What if his energy was exhausted? Zheng Ren's mind was filled with random thoughts.
Xie Yiren and Chang Yue kept putting things in the car. Su Yun was causing trouble at the side. Only Zheng Ren quietly pushed the car behind, using all his energy to resist the will of the universe.
However, Zheng Ren's thoughts were a little redundant. Before his energy was emptied, Xie Yiren finished shopping. He looked at the car full of things and was a little surprised. Did they usually use so much at home?
If he didn't come out to buy things, he really wouldn't know.
However, daily necessities like rice, cooking oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea seemed to be life. He had to learn to adapt, Zheng Ren thought.
She ran to the buffet machine to pay the bill. There were relatively fewer people here, so Zheng Ren felt much better. As long as there weren't so many people, the drop in energy value wouldn't be too fast.
'Judging from the situation, I should be able to hold on until I get home,' Zheng Ren thought.
"It's enough for a while. Sister Yue and I can buy the food after work," Yiren said as she scanned the QR code. She seemed to sense his exhaustion.
Seeing that his Stamina had stabilized with only a few hundred points left, Zheng Ren was in a good mood. The buzzing in his head was no longer as annoying as before.
Zheng Ren's face was full of smiles as he walked out of the cart after paying the bill. The more pessimistic she was when she was shopping in the supermarket, the brighter her smile was now.
Looking at the flow of people in the supermarket, Zheng Ren felt like he had just escaped death.
He happily walked out. The slightly polluted air seemed to have become much fresher.
In the distance, a father was taking out a few coins from his pocket and handing them to a child who looked like he was three or four years old. Zheng Ren felt very warm. This should be training the child's ability to take care of himself.
It would be fine if he and Yiren had a boy in the future, but what if they had a girl? Would he not spoil the child too much? Zheng Ren's mind was full of nonsense.
Watching the child clumsily walk to a coin-operated shopping machine and raise his hand to barely fit the coin into the slot, Zheng Ren thought that he was really cute.
'I should not think about how to spoil my daughter. Dealing with my father-in-law is the most important thing,' Zheng Ren thought to himself. Uncle Ning … What was he doing? Although he was afraid, he still had to find time to call Uncle Ning to ask about the situation and improve their relationship.
The child stood on his tiptoes, trying hard to stuff the coin into the slot. However, he still failed in the end. The one-yuan coin fell to the ground with a clang and rolled a few steps away.
Zheng Ren passed by with the cart but had no intention of helping the child pick up the coin. The child's father was looking at him with a smile ten meters away. He should not be meddlesome.
He had to learn to live like a dog from a young age. Otherwise, when he grew up … Zheng Ren's imagination ran wild and he suddenly thought of Gu Xiaoran.
That little mommy's baby seemed to be quite good except for her willingness to cry.
Suddenly, a foot stepped on the coin. It was an old lady with white hair.
She must be feeling sorry for the child. Zheng Ren frowned and looked at her. The System panel was red and there was a strange diagnosis written on it.
Uh …
Before Zheng Ren could recall this strange diagnosis, the old lady's movements were even faster than his mind. She walked towards the child with a smile on her face. As she walked, she said, "Thank you for helping Grandma pick up the coin."
Zheng Ren was stunned.
She was not helping the child pick up the coin but taking advantage of it? F * ck … She even wanted to take advantage of a coin. How could she?!
However, Zheng Ren soon realized that he was wrong. The old lady walked to the child's side and snatched the remaining two coins from the child's hand. As she snatched it, she said, "Child, thank you for helping Grandma pick up the coin. I'm old and it's difficult for me to bend. "
Old … Bending … She bent quite happily just now and did not seem to have any difficulty.
Zheng Ren cursed in his heart.
The child was stunned for a moment and did not react to what had happened. He looked at the old lady in a daze and then at the coins she was putting into her pocket with a blank expression.
"Why are you robbing money?" The child's father frowned and walked over. Although he was very unhappy, it was only three yuan after all. He still maintained a calm attitude.
But when his own child was being bullied, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
"This is my money. How did it become yours when your child touched it?" the old lady said in a shrill voice. "Are you bullying me because I'm old? Let me tell you, if you want to steal money, kill me! "
"…" The child's father was also stunned. He probably did not usually come into contact with such unreasonable people and was at a loss for a moment.
Zheng Ren glanced at the old lady's bright red System panel and pulled Su Yun, who was about to step forward to meddle. He walked over and pulled the child's father back.
