The Sickly Villain Only Wants to Survive

28

Zhu Tong couldn't understand why Shao Ming's family just wanted to run a milk tea shop peacefully, yet someone always seemed to jump out and cause trouble.

What were they after?

If Yuan Shaozhao were simply acting out of jealousy and psychological distortion, as a student, he couldn't possibly create such a significant incident.

But this time, it involved a well-known model and a television station. This scale of operation didn't seem like something a student could pull off.

Could it be that Bai Yueguang's "rivals" had emerged?

But Mary Sue was only a freshman in high school!

The plot hadn't even developed to the point where he had become acquainted with those stocks!

Who could it be?

Just as he was pondering, a new item suddenly appeared before him.

A menu-like booklet was handed to him, accompanied by a familiar, slightly offbeat voice: "Customer, would you like to place an order?"

"..."

Zhu Tong turned his head and saw Shao Ming's unwavering, smiling face.

What could possibly make him nervous?

Zhu Tong couldn't figure it out.

He took the drink menu and glanced through it.

The menu at Shao Ming's milk tea shop wasn't just a simple price list; it also featured photos of the finished products.

Zhu Tong had hardly tried any of them, and he was dazzled by the variety.

Shao Ming stood beside him and said, "Flip to the back; the front section is for cold drinks, while the hot drinks don't taste as good... These options are more suitable for you. Take a look and see which one you'd like."

Zhu Tong asked him, "Can you make all of these?"

"Can I make them? More than that!" Luo Su chimed in as he walked over. "Half of the drinks in our shop were created by Ming-ge. Do you know why our business is so good? Because we have things here that other shops don't."

"..."

Zhu Tong glanced at Shao Ming again.

So, this person had an interest in studying beverages?

Shao Ming looked at him and asked, "Have you decided?"

Zhu Tong looked down, closed the drink menu, and said, "Let's go with the one I had last time."

"Pudding tapioca pearls?"

Zhu Tong nodded, "Mm."

Shao Ming raised an eyebrow in interest.

Zhu Tong, confused, asked, "What's wrong?"

Is it really that hard to make?

Shao Ming smiled and said, "I didn't realize you were such a devoted person."

Zhu Tong: "..."

What does that mean?

He blinked and said, "I'm not really used to trying new things; I'll gradually explore the rest later."

"..."

"Gradually explore the rest later," huh?

Shao Ming squinted slightly, took the drink menu, and smiled, "Alright, then please wait, I'll have it ready for you shortly."

He "took" the order and walked behind the counter, while Zhu Tong's gaze followed him.

Suddenly realizing something was off, he turned around to find the attention of the other people in the shop was on him.
