Apocalypse: I have a supermarket stocked with supplies-Chapter 98 - : Seven Big Bowls of Rice
Chapter 98: Seven Big Bowls of Rice
Evening came, and as Lin Murong wished, Su Yinhe made duck blood spicy soup.
With a face bruised green and purple, Lin Murong devoured his meal without once lifting his head.
He ate seven large bowls of rice that night.
But that wasn’t the most outrageous part. Despite eating so much, his stomach remained remarkably flat.
Su Yinhe, rubbing her own distended belly, seriously suspected that he actually had two stomachs.
The duck blood spicy soup was a great success that night, fragrant and appetizing, spicy with a tempting layer of red oil on top. Su Yinhe really liked it as well, and then accidentally overate.
...
Chi Yan, meanwhile, took a liking to the sweet and sour ribs, polishing off an entire plate by himself.
After dinner, it was Chi Yan’s task to wash the dishes.
He possessed Water Power, which made the dishes come out spotless.
And he didn’t even need to use dish soap.
However, if those who feared Chi Yan could see him using his superpower to wash dishes, their jaws would probably drop in shock.
Chi Yan had a cleaning obsession and disliked touching dishes directly, so he had mastered his Water Power remarkably well.
Dishes were enveloped in a film of water for cleaning, and after being cleansed, they were put away neatly by the flow of water.
Without ever needing to lay a hand on them.
Su Yinhe watched this and, for a moment, wasn’t sure whether he was showing off or just acting on his obsession with cleanliness.
Lin Murong managed to get rid of his somewhat more shamefaced uncle, Lin Nianbei, by being shameless.
However, Lin Murong hadn’t expected his uncle to abandon all pretense of pride.
The next day, Lin Nianbei came back, bringing his bothersome sister, Lin Muxue, with him.
When Lin Muxue arrived, Lin Murong was eating ice cream.
Su Yinhe had made it at the milk tea shop, displaying her excellent skills by making him an extra-long ice cream.
Ice cream melts quickly, and as Lin Murong licked here, it would drip there; but he only had one mouth.
Lin Muxue happened to catch him extending his tongue to lick it.
Like a dog.
A hint of malice flashed through Lin Muxue’s heart.
Her brother lived carefree, like a fool. As much as she scorned him, she also envied him.
Not the sharpest tool in the shed.
But lucky to have met Chi Yan and become friends with someone so picky and who detested stupidity, yet ironically had been friends with Lin Murong for so long.
Now, he was also becoming great pals with the supermarket boss, Galaxy.
She was really envious.
However, when Lin Muxue saw Su Yinhe, that jealousy shifted toward her.
The malice in her eyes almost spilled over.
Su Yinhe felt uncomfortable all over being stared at by such an idiot.
“Brother, you’re here every day. If people didn’t know better, they’d think this was your house,” Lin Muxue said, instantly grossing Lin Murong out.
“Boss Su, is it? Let me apologize on behalf of my brother. He loves to be a nuisance,” Lin Muxue said, shifting the focus back onto Su Yinhe.
Su Yinhe frowned.
The way she said it.
“Who needs you to apologize for me? Lin Muxue, how is it that I suddenly find you so brazen? Apologize for me? Why don’t you take my place in dying?” Lin Murong spat out at Lin Muxue furiously.

“Lin Muxue, quit using me as your decoy for whatever you’re up to. I’m your brother, not your dad. Your dad’s over there. If you have an issue, go to him, Lin Nianbei, not me. We’ve long since disowned each other.”
“Brother, why are you being so fierce?” Lin Muxue said with a pitiful look at him.
Anyone who didn’t know better might think Lin Murong had done something horrific to her.
“Ah, now you’ve spilled your tea all over me. Lin Muxue, other than Lin Nianbei, no one here wants your brewed tea. Don’t you get tired from all this pretense? I feel sick watching it even if you aren’t tired.”
Su Yinhe quietly took out her sunflower seeds.
She handed a bunch to both Chi Yan and Qin Mingzhou.
She felt a little immoral about it.
But the drama was too good to miss.
Poor Lin Murong.
So, a scene unfolded like this.
Lin Murong was fiercely lashing out in the forefront, while Lin Muxue made her tea-talk.
Unclear who she was trying to impress.
They were cracking sunflower seeds just behind.
Among them, Su Yinhe and Qin Mingzhou were using their teeth, crackling away joyously, the sound somehow keeping time with Lin Murong’s spoken rhythm.
Chi Yan peeled them slowly with his hands.
He peeled them but didn’t eat them, instead placing them on a small dish.
As for Lin Nianbei, Lin Muxue’s father mentioned by Lin Murong, he stood behind Lin Muxue.
He looked at Lin Muxue’s back with satisfaction, but whenever he looked at Lin Murong, his face expressed a deep frustration, as if resenting that iron could not turn into steel.
Not only did Lin Murong have to be disgusted by Lin Muxue, but he was also disgusted by Lin Nianbei.
He felt he must have done something terrible in his past life, like maybe killing two extra pigs, to deserve such a bothersome sister and uncle in this life.
Their brains didn’t work like normal people’s; in fact, it was as if they had no brains at all. Out of the ordinary.
Lin Murong had worked hard, and turned around only to find that those three were cracking seeds.
Lin Murong: “!!!”
How can there be such people!
Lin Murong looked at Lin Muxue, who was still sipping tea, and then at the three people sitting behind, cracking seeds together, and became very angry.
Then he snatched Chi Yan’s peeled seeds from the dish with lightning speed, faster than ears could cover against thunder.
The empty seed husks in Chi Yan’s hands fluttered down gently.
Chi Yan: “…”
Su Yinhe: “That was fast.”
Chi Yan turned to look at her.
Su Yinhe: “What I mean is, he’s too bad. To actually steal your seeds. I am condemning him.”
Chi Yan felt satisfied.
And continued to peel seeds.
Then placed them on the dish.
Su Yinhe really wanted to ask him if he wasn’t afraid of Lin Murong reaching out and taking them again.
But seeing his focused demeanor, she decided not to ask, in case he got so annoyed that he accidentally killed Lin Murong.
Lin Murong was guilty, but his crime was not worthy of death.
Lin Murong continued the fight while Su Yinhe kept munching on seeds.
The current situation was that Lin Nianbei had also joined the fight, with Lin Nianbei handling the accusations and Lin Muxue continuing with her tea-cup comments.
Lin Murong, on his own against two people, didn’t seem to be at a disadvantage at all.
He was rather proficient at fighting.
And as he argued, his voice got louder; the people who came to the supermarket to shop stopped hurrying to buy things and hid on the side to watch the spectacle.
Gossiping and pointing fingers.
They had shopped so much at the supermarket, they were long past being people who would sell themselves for a bit of food.
When people are full, they have nothing to do.
And they love to watch gossip.
Some recognized Lin Nianbei and the other two, which made the crowd even more interested.
For those unaware of their grudges, there were others around explaining.
It was as if they had hidden under Lin Murong’s bed – they knew everything about Lin Murong and Lin Muxue’s relationship, able to recount their every conversation.
Down to the last detail.
Terrifyingly exact.
Su Yinhe listened in as well.
It was all quite melodramatically complicated.
Poor kid.
Maybe she should make him a dish of duck blood spicy soup.
Su Yinhe started thinking about the menu again.
She was just slightly distracted, but by the time she snapped back to reality, the three of them had started fighting.
No superpowers, just fists and kicks.
A brawl involving three people.
The people brought by Lin Nianbei watched the trio fight, considered their identities, thought it best to stay out of a domestic affair, and decided unanimously to sit to one side and enjoy the drama.
As for everyone else…
They felt the show was getting better and better.
