Chapter 9

At this moment, Wang Fan was shopping at the supermarket. It was the time when people who worked during the day had already finished their shifts, so the supermarket was particularly crowded. Seven or eight cashiers were busily working, and there was still a long queue in front of them!

"If only the Three Realms Supermarket had this many people, my monthly performance bonus would definitely not be small!"

Wang Fan was no longer interested in his basic salary of 4,000 yuan a month. What he was interested in was the 0.5% commission that could be converted into performance bonuses, which could be exchanged for tangible benefits in the supermarket!

He didn't know about other products, but Wang Fan now knew that the Six-Flavor Life-Extending Pills might be related to human lifespan, and the discounted paintings and calligraphy might be genuine, with each piece being very valuable. Thinking about this, the other member products must also be extraordinary!

But all these things had to be exchanged with points! He hoped that business would pick up tonight so he could exchange for some good things from the supermarket!

Unfortunately, the situation was not optimistic. It was almost one o'clock in the morning, and there was not a single customer in the supermarket. Bored and idle, Wang Fan put on his name tag and started organizing various goods in the supermarket!

"Clang!" A sound echoed in the quiet supermarket, startling Wang Fan. He remembered that there were no customers in the supermarket tonight. Could it be Qin Han? Where did the sound come from?

If Qin Han were here, he could ask him about the Three Realms Supermarket. He had too many questions in his heart, and he was almost suffocating from them!

Wang Fan heard the sound coming from the fruit section. He quickly walked through the alcohol and beverage sections and arrived at the fruit display area, but found no one there. He didn't know what had caused the sound!

"Such beautiful fruits!"

Fruits that Wang Fan couldn't name emitted various exotic fragrances. They were all oddly shaped and crystal clear, making them hard to put down! He saw a clean handkerchief nearby and thought about wiping the fruits to make them look better!

"Is this a snake fruit? I've never seen it before! It costs points to buy a pound? That's really expensive..."

Wang Fan was tidying up the fruits, picking them up curiously, and comparing them with the labels. The snake fruit was about the size of a palm, with a skin like a snake, feeling cool to the touch, and each one weighed more than a pound.

"I recognize this, it's an apple, but it seems too small, and the smell is wrong. It costs ten points to buy a pound, no wonder there are no customers in the supermarket!"

Wang Fan looked at the apple-like fruit, feeling indignant about the high price, and quickly wiped it with the handkerchief to make it look more attractive!

"You're really stupid, beyond redemption!"

A clear voice came, accompanied by a giggle, as if seeing the funniest thing in the world!

A little girl in a light green gauze dress appeared before him. She was very strange, with her long hair tied into two small buns, looking about twelve or thirteen years old, with a childish face but trying to act mature.

The girl's dress was so long that her toes couldn't be seen, and her eyes were peculiar. When she blinked, the whites of her eyes were more visible than the black, making her look a bit like a blind person.

The moment these words came to mind, Wang Fan's heart ached. Could such a cute and lively little girl be blind? He felt pity for her, so he wasn't angry at her calling him stupid.

"What's your name? How did I not see you come in?"

Wang Fan looked at the little girl curiously. She was walking around the fruit section, taking deep breaths, and looking very absorbed, especially when she stood in front of the snake fruit, holding it with her white, delicate hand, unwilling to let go.

"That thing is too expensive, and it probably doesn't taste good!"

Wang Fan saw the little girl bring the snake fruit to her face, and she actually drooled. She held one in each hand, looked at the price tag, and felt a bit heartache, then put one down. After a moment, she seemed to make up her mind and finally picked up two!

"You really are stupid. The snake fruit blooms once every fifty years and bears fruit once every fifty years, taking two hundred years to mature. One snake fruit, though expensive, is a rare delicacy in the world. I bet you've never tasted it!"

As she spoke, the little girl deliberately put on an adult's manner, looking very mature, which made Wang Fan chuckle. At this moment, he noticed that the little girl moved very quickly, almost as if she were floating!

Yes, floating, like a gust of wind, moving around as if she had no feet!

"What's your name? These two snake fruits cost fifty points. Are you sure you want to buy them?"

Wang Fan looked at the strange little girl, asking cautiously. Normally, a little girl's card wouldn't have more than sixty points, but two snake fruits would use up fifty points. Was it worth it? Moreover, her eyes made him feel even more pity!

"Buy them, why not? If Qin Han were here, he would definitely persuade me to buy more. It seems the person he hired this time is really stupid. Qin Han must be having a headache! Hehe!"

The little girl spoke, rolling her eyes with more white than black, and making a very mature face, mocking him for being stupid. However, Wang Fan could see from her expression that she didn't really dislike him; on the contrary, she seemed to enjoy talking to him.

"My name is Zhu Qing. I'm an old customer. Check it out!"

The little girl, holding two snake fruits, floated to the cash register, seemingly impatient with Wang Fan's slow movements, and frequently looked back at him!

"Zhu Qing, that's a nice name. Oh, you have a lot of points, one thousand eight hundred and thirty..."

Wang Fan was stunned. This was the most points he had ever seen in a customer's account. Her yellow card had over one thousand eight hundred points. One point could buy three discounted paintings, worth about seven to eight million yuan. So, the points in her card represented a huge amount of wealth!

"One thousand eight hundred and thirty points minus fifty points, you have one thousand seven hundred and eighty points left..."

After the transaction, Wang Fan couldn't help but check his own performance. Indeed, Zhu Qing was an old customer of the Three Realms Supermarket, with more points than hundreds of people combined.

"I'm not the only one. There's a handsome big brother who is a big customer. The last time I saw him, he bought a lot of things, making my mouth water!"

It seemed that Zhu Qing liked to talk. Since the supermarket was empty, Wang Fan was happy to chat with her. He was also very curious about how Zhu Qing had so many points.

Wang Fan had worked in the supermarket for some time and had seen the most points in a member's card, which belonged to Shi Tou, but it was only a few dozen points. He never expected Zhu Qing to have over a thousand points. What did these points represent? Was it money? Or did they have other meanings?

Before coming to the Three Realms Supermarket, if someone told Wang Fan that there were ghosts in the world, he would have thought it was nonsense. The idea of ghosts was just a product of people's imagination!

But that night, he was clearly asleep, but he woke up because of a stomachache and bought medicine, entering the Three Realms Supermarket at midnight. He saw Xiao Bao, Xiao Shier, and Shi Tou...

When he worked in the supermarket, he had also secretly pinched himself to check if he was dreaming, and it hurt, indicating he wasn't dreaming!

"I don't know who I am. When I became aware, I was with another person, who seemed like my mother or my sister, but then she disappeared. After that, I played alone in the forest, grass, and bamboo groves..."

"Gradually, I saw fewer and fewer friends, almost never seeing anyone all day. I found it boring, so I often came here to play. I found a lot of delicious things and a scary-looking uncle with dimples, and I often chatted with him!"

Wang Fan scratched his head, listening to Zhu Qing. She seemed a bit confused, but as she spoke, Wang Fan felt relieved. This little girl didn't seem like a bad person, and her eyes were probably just a bit unusual.

"Then who are you? How do you have so many points in your card? It's so strange?"

Wang Fan couldn't help but ask a rather naive question. Indeed, Zhu Qing rolled her eyes at him, deliberately putting on a mature face!

"I've always been like this. You're just a little brat, and you're stupid, so I'll tell you!"

Zhu Qing pouted, making Wang Fan laugh. He tugged at the bun on her head, laughing, "Little girl, how old are you? Acting mature in front of me? You're just a little brat, call me big brother!"

Zhu Qing looked very cute, and at first, Wang Fan felt a bit uneasy. This was the first customer with over a thousand points! But her appearance and the way she spoke and moved made Wang Fan treat her like a little sister from the neighborhood.

So, he couldn't help but tug at the bun on her head, a habit he had with his sister, Wang Qian.

"Little idiot, little brat! Call me big sister, or I won't call you big brother. I've never seen anyone as stupid as you. Qin Han must be so pitiful..."
