The Buggiest System

Chapter 26

"There"re no eggs? Then go buy them!" Zhou Lei didn"t mind cooking for his sister, but it was the middle of the night, and this little sister of his woke him up to cook her some fried eggs, only to say in the end that there were actually no eggs left!

Seeing her brother get slightly angry, Zhou Zhenya subconsciously took a step back. She trembled for a moment before courageously opening her mouth. "But I"m not allowed to go out at this time..."

This realization struck Zhou Lei heavily. How... how could I make my sister buy some eggs in the middle of the night? That"s extremely dangerous, are you nuts?!

Zhou Zhenya was already extremely beautiful. Even if they weren"t a pedophile, some rapist may still attack her just because of her face and body.

There was also the fact that it was already past 10:00 pm, which was the curfew. Even if she wasn"t violated, she would be caught by the enforcement officers!

Just the fact that he asked his little sister to buy some eggs made his heart tremble. "What an evil human being I am!"

Hesitantly, Zhou Lei replied to his sister. "Fine. I"ll buy the eggs." He stretched out his hand, asking for money from his sister.

Zhou Zhenya put her small hand in a pocket and grabbed something. She then pulled it out, causing her wallet to go with it.

Zhou Lei was slightly shocked. "When did my little sister get a wallet? She"s just eleven years old! Why don"t I have one?"

He then reaussered himself in his heart. "What use would a wallet be to her, an eleven-year-old girl? She definitely won"t have that much money..."

As Zhou Lei waited, Zhou Zhenya opened her wallet. There were many bills inside, along with a bunch of coins. Zhou Zhenya grabbed the 100$ bill and gave it to her brother.

"Here, buy some eggs."

As soon as Zhou Lei saw the contents of his sister"s wallet, he couldn"t help but feel embarra.s.sed and confused. "Where did she get so much money? Don"t tell me..."

An image of a love hotel popped up in Zhou Lei"s mind.

"F**k no!" Zhou Lei suddenly cursed as he tried to remove the image of his sister... doing inappropriate things!

Zhou Zhenya was taken aback. Why did you curse out of the blue? You really don"t want to buy the eggs then? She slowly grabbed the 100$ bill back from her brother"s hand.

Zhou Lei"s hand abruptly closed as he stopped his sister from getting the 100$ bill back. He exited the kitchen, grabbed his jacket, opened the door, and walked out of the house. He was too imaginative.

Eating on the dinner table, Zhou Xiang and Zhou Jiahao heard their son"s sudden cursing. It was obnoxious and loud, and most probably directed at their daughter.

Zhou Zhenya followed her brother out of the kitchen, before stopping right at the door out of their house. She looked at her parents who were looking back at her suspiciously.


Zhou Xiang and Zhou Jiahao"s worries disappeared when they saw their daughter"s beautiful face. "Ahh, I feel proud for some reason..."

.....

At a sidewalk.

The hoodie of the jacket was on Zhou Lei"s head. He was hiding his ugly face from everyone.

As he walked, he saw a single illuminated building in the distance. It was a convenience store named "9-eleven".

"How... insensitive." Zhou Lei thought to himself. He remembered what happened to the U.S. on July 11. "Cruel..."

.....

Ting-ling!

A convenience store, crowded even though it was midnight. This was the situation happening in MegaStop.

A hooded man entered the premises. Despite the hectic surroundings, the staff still greeted every customer that came in.

Suddenly, this hooded man... brought out a gun!

Everyone screamed-

Oh, wait. We"re observing the wrong convenience store.

Wait a minute...

...

Ting-ling!

The convenience store cashier woke up from the sound of the bell. She had been resting on her palm, saliva nearly dripping out of her mouth.

She saw a hooded figure wearing a gray jacket walk in the convenience store and became suspicious.

The hooded figure was pretty... "healthy". His figure was "slightly" bigger than normal, but other than that, there were no problems.

She greeted the hooded man enthusiastically: "Welcome to 9-eleven!" as she put on an amiable expression.

The hooded man was naturally Zhou Lei. He nodded at the cashier as he took off his hood, revealing his unpleasant features.

The cashier saw him and couldn"t help but be disgusted. This only happened for a moment though.

Zhou Lei went and strolled around the convenience store with both his hands inside his pockets. Eventually, he found where the eggs were.

Since Zhou Lei entered the store, the cashier had been keeping a close eye on him. She monitored his every movement. To be honest, this was not part of her job... but she had nothing else to do.

As Zhou Lei arrived at a spot where she could not see him, the cashier waited for him to come out. A second later, the gray jacket was finally seen again.

Zhou Lei walked out of the spot where the cashier could not see him. Carrying a full egg tray in hand, he walked towards the cashier with the intent to pay for the eggs.

However, what he saw was a shocked expression, mixed with some infatuation and confusion.

The cashier looked at him like he was her long-dead husband! She was completely in love, yet scared at the same time.

"Hmm?" Zhou Lei was confused as well. "Why is the cashier looking at me weirdly? Am I... really that ugly? Well, no matter, since I"ll become handsome again soon anyway."

Both of the people just stood silently, looking at each other.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

.....

One minute.

There was still no movement from the two.

As Zhou Lei stared longer at the cashier"s face, he gradually appreciated her good looks. Of course, it was not comparable to his sister"s beauty, in fact, it was not even at the same realm.

Zhou Lei would describe the cashier as "pretty" on her own, but when placed next to Zhou Zhenya, she would be "okay".

Finally, Zhou Lei broke the silence by clearing his throat. "Ahem."

"Huh?" The cashier also snapped out of her daze as she shook her head. She rubbed her eyes and looked at Zhou Lei once more. "Am... am I dreaming?"
