Chapter 192: Chapter 108: This Unlucky Kid

"Pack up and let’s go!"

"Oh, okay."

Chen Yuan pulled off the tablecloth and packed everything up, but they were both new at this and fumbled awkwardly.

Just as they finished packing, the guy at the stall next to them had already grabbed his stuff and bolted.

’Holy crap!’

’Damn, he’s quick!’

"Hey, hey, hey, you two!"

Just as the two were about to pack up and run, two city management officers got out of a car and headed straight for them.

At a time like this, it was all about who was faster on their feet. If you ran fast, you were fine. If you were slow, you got caught red-handed.

"According to regulations, you’re not allowed to set up a stall here. You two should know that."

"We didn’t know." Song Jianye shook her head. "Mr. Officer, this is our first time. We don’t know anything."

That "Mr. Officer" from her instantly softened the middle-aged officer’s expression.

Life just isn’t fair.

The same words, when spoken by someone with good looks, can have an unexpectedly powerful effect.

"This is common sense. If everyone just set up a stall wherever they pleased like you two, what would happen to the city’s appearance?"

"We’re students on a work-study program. We definitely won’t do this again."

Song Jianye took out the remaining yogurt and caterpillar bread.

"Mr. Officer, these are for you. Please don’t fine us."

Seeing the words on the packaging, the middle-aged officer’s expression softened even more.

"You’re students from the Agricultural University? You’re not lying, are you?"

Song Jianye put on a serious, straight face and pointed at Chen Yuan. "If I’m lying, he’s a puppy."

Chen Yuan: ???

The middle-aged officer chuckled. Seeing Song Jianye reminded him of his own child.

His kid was only in junior high but was already built like a tank; she probably wouldn’t grow up to be as pretty as this girl.

"We have regulations to follow; I can’t just take your things for free. And since you’re students, I especially can’t do that. How much for these two items? I’ll buy them for my kid."

"It’s 18 yuan total."

"Show me your QR code."

Song Jianye pulled up her QR code, and the officer scanned it.

Chen Yuan stood to the side, never imagining that their last two items would be sold in such a way.

"I won’t fine you this time. But if I catch you again, I’ll have to handle it by the book."

"Thank you, Mr. Officer!"

"Alright, I know it’s not easy for you kids. Pack up and go. Just don’t do this again."

"Mhm."

Just then, Uncle Zhang came jogging over. "Miss, is something wrong?"

’Miss?’

The middle-aged officer stood nearby, feeling like something wasn’t quite right.

’Under normal circumstances, nobody uses that form of address, right?’

"Are you her elder?" the middle-aged officer asked.

"This is my young miss. I’m her driver," Uncle Zhang said with a smile.

"I can handle her affairs. You can just speak with me. We will certainly cooperate fully."

’Wait a minute...’

The officer was completely stunned.

’Work-study program?’

’My young miss?’

’Driver?’

’How could those words possibly be connected?’

"Uncle Zhang, I’ve already handled it," Song Jianye said, looking pleased with herself.

"Mr. Officer bought the rest of the bread and yogurt, and he said he wouldn’t fine us. He’s super nice."

Song Jianye looked at the middle-aged officer. "Isn’t that right, Mr. Officer?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes..."

"Well, thank you very much," Uncle Zhang said politely. He then looked at the two. "Miss, everything’s sold. Let’s head back."

"Mhm."

Uncle Zhang opened the trunk of the Maybach and helped move the remaining things inside.

Song Jianye, with her Hermès bag on her shoulder, waved at the officer.

"Bye-bye, Mr. Officer! I won’t come set up a stall ever again!"

Chen Yuan and Song Jianye got in the car.

The middle-aged officer stood there, holding the caterpillar bread and yogurt, his feelings a little complicated as he watched the Maybach S680 drive away.
