The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 302

Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Harsh Natural Environment

Fu Cheng couldn’t even bear to look at Xue Can’s foolish grin.

The guy must think Shen Lu cares about him.

Too bad Shen Lu’s kindness was unconditional and offered to everyone.

It held no special meaning.

After the two large basins of Spicy Dry Pot were completely devoured, Wu Jun rubbed his stuffed stomach, exclaiming how satisfying it was.

"Boss Shen, this... this Spicy Dry Pot tastes amazing!"

Huo Qian wiped the red oil from her lips. "If you were to sell this, it would probably be very popular."

Shen Lu had heard this all before. Unfazed, she waved her hand dismissively. "We’ll see. The slow season is about to start, so stabilizing our revenue is the top priority."

After the meal, Shen Lu went to the backyard and entered the metal shed to check on the Liu father and son’s work. She found that the Level 1 seeds hadn’t been sorted properly; some Second Level seeds were mixed in.

"It must’ve been Dad. He wasn’t being careful. Little Deer, I’ll supervise him properly tomorrow!" Liu Yaozu quickly shifted the blame to Liu Qiang, completely absolving himself.

Liu Qiang’s expression was calm, showing no intention of refuting the claim.

Shen Lu said, "In that case, there will be no lunch for ’Dad’ tomorrow."

"Ah, this... We only messed up once. You don’t have to be so strict..." Liu Yaozu said timidly.

"If I’m not strict, you’ll dare to make the same mistake again. If you don’t accept it, you can..."

Before she could finish, Liu Yaozu cut her off. "We accept! We accept!"

"Good. Now get back to work."

Shen Lu returned to her living quarters, grabbed some clothes, and went to take a shower.

After her shower, she sat on the sofa to watch TV.

Ever since Fu Cheng got his wheelchair, the TV had been moved back to the living room. When she had nothing to do at night, Shen Lu would come watch a bit of that interstellar mother-in-law drama.

The female lead had already begun her conquest of the stars, where she met the umpteenth male supporting character. They were in the middle of a push-and-pull, and it looked like they’d be having a "deep exchange" within the next two episodes.

"You like watching this kind of show?" Fu Cheng came out of his room and found Shen Lu hugging a throw pillow, her face alight with excitement as she stared at the TV screen.

Shen Lu hadn’t expected Fu Cheng to come out. ’Usually, he’s in his room playing games at this time.’

She gave a couple of fake coughs. "It’s pretty good."

"The plot is... too ridiculous."

"I wouldn’t be watching it if it wasn’t ridiculous." Shen Lu changed the channel very naturally. "Not playing your game today?"

"The game had a bug. They took the servers down for emergency maintenance."

"Oh."

Shen Lu channel-surfed until she landed on a movie, a fairytale full of magic and fantasy.

This fairytale was almost identical to Snow White, with the same evil queen stepmother and the same poor, persecuted princess.

The difference was that this "Snow White" was clever and brave and didn’t fall for the queen stepmother’s poison plot. The prince thus lost his chance to kiss the beauty awake, instead becoming the princess’s ally, helping her defeat the evil queen stepmother.

But at this point, the story was only half over.

In the second half of the story, the prince’s country believed the princess’s country should submit to their rule.

The prince felt the same way. After all, without his help, the princess could never have smoothly taken back everything.

But the prince was clever with his words. He said he loved the princess and wanted to marry her.

He also said that as long as the princess married him, he would find a way to persuade his family to stop talking about submission.

But everyone knew that once the princess married him, her country would naturally become his.

The prince had a beautiful dream: not only would he win the fair maiden, but he would also expand his territory and strengthen his nation, killing two birds with one stone.

Unfortunately, the princess heard the hidden meaning in his words and was naturally unwilling to hand over her kingdom.
