Chapter 250: The boss of all bosses

“And besides, not just any big shot, but a big shot among big shots,” Lin Murong said earnestly.

“I don’t think so,” Su Yinhe also said earnestly.

“Why?”

“Because she always seems a bit panicked behind her composure. Of course, it might be because you’re too enthusiastic and scared her,” Su Yinhe glanced at him; he sure could talk.

Very enthusiastic.

Truly suited to be a waiter at Haidilao.

“How could that be. I was just as enthusiastic last time, and Grandma wasn’t frightened by me, I’ve actually been holding back this time,” Lin Murong did not agree with Su Yinhe’s view.

“Then… shall we fight?”

Su Yinhe rolled up his sleeves.

Lin Murong: “…”

He slowly backed away a few steps, “You can’t play like that, Galaxy. I… have something else to do, I need to go.” After saying that, Lin Murong ran off as if being chased by ghosts.

He still had bruises from being beaten by Su Yinhe that hadn’t faded.

How could he dare to fight with Su Yinhe again?

He can’t beat Chi Yan, can’t beat Galaxy, can’t beat Fangfang either; he’s at the very bottom of the pecking order.

Damn.

He had tried so hard; how could he still not beat them?

Every day they slacked off, especially Galaxy, who liked to stay in bed.

But she was really powerful, even more so than him.

Is this the gap between a genius and an ordinary person?

A faint sadness welled up in Lin Murong’s heart.

Gao Chu, carrying a large bag of supplies, walked out with her heart still racing. It took a very long time for her to calm down and for her heartbeat to return to normal.

She never expected that she would actually get her hands on so many supplies so easily.

She really thought she’d be discovered just now.

Especially when paying, she was really worried her disguise would be discovered.

The checkout didn’t take long, but Gao Chu had already imagined, if she got caught how she’d snatch the supplies and run away.

Thankfully, she wasn’t discovered.

Those three idiots didn’t notice anything amiss about her at all.

Gao Chu was quite satisfied.

The only thing that didn’t satisfy her was that fool, Lin Murong. That fool had been following her around.

He said he wanted to help, to show her around.

Damn it, she really didn’t need it; she just wanted to browse on her own.

Gao Chu hinted at it subtly a few times, but this fool either didn’t understand or thought she was giving him hints, telling her he was happy to serve her, that it wasn’t hard for him.

And he was moved.

What was there to be moved about!

She didn’t want him leading the way anymore.

She really didn’t need it.

She wanted to browse by herself.

But it was alright, now that she had so many supplies, any dissatisfaction had turned into satisfaction.

A little imperfection was not a big deal.

The most important thing was the supplies!

After Gao Chu walked away, she began taking out the supplies from the bag one by one, carefully counting them and etching them into her memory.

They were all hers.

All her supplies.

From now on, she would be someone with a lot of supplies.

Having tasted the sweetness twice, Gao Chu was already preparing for a third time.

Gao Chu knew that she wasn’t really an old lady; she just managed a passable act by using makeup and imitation.

But if someone observed closely, they’d see something was off.

If she went there occasionally, they wouldn’t find anything amiss, but if she went every day, sooner or later they’d spot the discrepancies.

But with supplies at stake, Gao Chu didn’t want to think too much about anything else.

Her eyes saw only the supplies.

She didn’t actually care about the danger.

All she wanted were the supplies.

As many as possible.

But what would she do when the cosmetics ran out?

The cosmetics were still in decent condition, but she had to play an old woman, which meant that every piece of skin she showed had to be made up, otherwise it would give her away.

It was easy to get discovered.

Naturally, the cosmetics were used up quickly.

Gao Chu worried about this issue, but after a moment’s concern, she remembered that the supermarket was well-stocked. Although she had only purchased food, she had also browsed and was hence aware of how comprehensive the product range at the supermarket was.

So, there should also be cosmetics.

She could buy some.

The problem, however, was how to prevent that Lin Murong from following her.

When she bought them, Lin Murong would certainly ask questions, and might even become suspicious.

Gao Chu sincerely hoped that they were three fools–easy to deceive due to their stupidity.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t just treat them like fools and deceive them; she had to take this seriously, as it involved her supplies.

Supplies, supplies, no room for error.

She couldn’t accept even the slightest mishap.

In the following days, Gao Chu came daily with a sack of Crystal Cores to exchange for money, and then left with several bags of supplies.

She carried a lot of rice too.

And each time she came, Lin Murong would come forward to serve her.

Gao Chu cursed inwardly.

Yet on the surface, she had to show a kind and benevolent smile.

It felt very awkward.

But for the sake of supplies, she was willing to endure.

“I feel that Grandma has been looking a lot younger recently, and her step has been getting sprightlier,” Lin Murong observed after several days.

He used to take a step and wait two seconds.

Now, Grandma walked faster than him; if he wasn’t careful, he might not even keep up.

He even began to suspect that Grandma might be a Superpower User in disguise.

However, that seemed a bit far-fetched, and Lin Murong was more inclined to believe that Grandma had just been playing possum before.

She must be very formidable; the slight trembling she used to show was definitely an act.

It had to be said that at certain moments, Lin Murong almost stumbled upon the correct answer, but he missed it.

He had been so close to the right answer, but he didn’t grasp it, he didn’t think it through.

Gao Chu was initially terrified, but later on, she became more and more natural, and her pace quickened accordingly.

Because she wanted more supplies, moving fast allowed her to carry more.

If she didn’t remember that she was supposed to be a Grandma, she would have been striding briskly long ago.

She even wanted to race.

For the first time, Gao Chu felt her time was this valuable, worth so much in terms of supplies.

Gao Chu didn’t even want to pretend to be Grandma anymore.

It was too much of a delay in moving supplies.

But she didn’t dare to stop being Grandma, because she had seen that those three fools, though not the smartest, had really high Combat Power.

Even Lin Murong, who followed her and chattered ceaselessly, was very strong.

Three such formidable Superpower Users gathered together, along with a supermarket?

It was so strange, no matter how you looked at it.

Gao Chu didn’t want to explore or stir up trouble.

She just wanted to be a hamster hoarding food.

Gao Chu thought she was acting very well, but in reality, the more supplies she moved later on, her footsteps became unconsciously light without her realizing something was amiss.

It was fortunate that Lin Murong didn’t think too much, or perhaps, his thoughts were too twisted.
