The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Damn It, This Is a Trap

At her words, the flunky’s face twisted as if he were constipated.

’How had he never noticed before that Lei Li was so love-struck?’

With Xue Can gone, Lei Li had no reason to stick around.

’She hadn’t gotten the answer she wanted today, so she’d just come back tomorrow. There were still a few days before the departure. She refused to believe she couldn’t win Xue Can over.’

Lei Li left the Gale Mercenary Corps’ base, leading her crew to Gold Street to let loose.

When they got to their usual club, Lei Li announced that everything was on her tonight. Her crew roared, "Sister Li, you’re the best!" and scattered to enjoy themselves.

Lei Li found a booth, sat down, and ordered drinks, snacks, and a male escort.

You might ask, if she liked Xue Can so much, why was she ordering a male escort?

Well, what did you expect? Was she supposed to save herself for Xue Can?

First of all, she hadn’t even won him over yet. And even if she had, she still wouldn’t do that.

As a mercenary, you lived one day at a time. Of course she was going to live every one of them to the fullest.

Besides, she was just going to have a few drinks with the escort, chat a little, maybe hold his hand. Nothing more.

Lei Li lounged in the escort’s arms, already a little tipsy as she poked a finger into his chest muscles.

"What’s wrong with me? I’m beautiful, I can fight, and I’m rich. Why on earth doesn’t Xue Can like me?"

The escort was just an ordinary guy; he couldn’t take Lei Li’s prodding. It felt like his sternum was about to crack.

But he didn’t dare push her away, so he endured the pain and placated her. "It’s his loss."

Lei Li gave the escort a half-hearted slap across the face. "Don’t you dare talk about him like that!"

The escort: ’...Fucking bitch!’

"Well, if it isn’t Miss Lei." A mocking voice cut in. Lei Li looked up, and the first thing she saw was a shiny, bald head.

It was hard to miss, with a light shining right on it and making it gleam.

Lei Li’s eyes were bleary with drink. She pointed at him for a good while but couldn’t come up with a name.

’He looked kind of familiar, but she couldn’t remember who he was.’

Jin San could tell right away that Lei Li didn’t recognize him. Cursing her internally for failing to recognize someone important, he plopped down in the booth.

"I used to be with the Gale Mercenary Corps. I quit recently. Now I’m working for my boss."

Lei Li sat up a little straighter. When she saw Jin San was about to light a cigarette, she kicked it away.

"No smoking in front of me!"

Jin San: ’...Fucking hell, did you have to kick it? You could have just used your words!’

"Fine, no smoking it is." Jin San consoled himself. ’A little humiliation is nothing. It’ll be worth it once I get what I want.’

"I remember now." Lei Li propped a foot on the coffee table as the perceptive escort fed her a drink. "Aren’t you that corps member Xue Can kicked out recently? Quit? Hah."

Jin San’s fists clenched instantly.

’That mouth of hers is so damn irritating!’

"Yes, I was kicked out!" Jin San suddenly slapped the table in resentment. "But do you know why?"

Lei Li shot him a sideways glance, her expression clearly saying, ’Spit it out.’

"It was because of a woman!" Jin San seethed. "I pissed off the woman Xue Can likes. To get even for her, he trumped up two baseless charges against me and kicked me out of the Mercenary Corps!"

Before the words were even out of his mouth, Lei Li’s hand cracked across his left cheek.

"I hate liars like you more than anything!" Still not satisfied, Lei Li raised her hand for a backhand slap.

Jin San quickly caught her wrist, roaring, "I’m not lying! If you don’t believe me, go ask anyone else in the corps! You’ll find out if I’m telling the truth!"
