The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Is the Light Brain Really That Fun?

Bai Wanwan stared at the chat screen for a long moment before kicking her brother.

"I seriously think Shen Lu is acting like she’s possessed."

Bai Lei didn’t dare dodge his sister’s kick, taking it without complaint.

"What is it now?"

"I just saw she was online and sent her a few messages. She wasn’t passive-aggressive with me for once, and she even sent me a sticker..."

In the past, whenever they chatted, it was basically them declaring war on each other. Their conversations were always full of tension, rarely peaceful.

It wasn’t that Bai Wanwan thought this was a bad thing; she just... hadn’t gotten used to it yet.

Bai Lei munched on some melon seeds. "It’s perfectly normal. She’s been through so much. She’s not the young miss of the Shen Family anymore, just the lower-class citizen Shen Lu. Naturally, she’s lost some of her confidence and arrogance."

"Are you sure she has no arrogance?"

’If she had no arrogance, why would she refuse Bai Lei’s partnership offer?’

"Alright, I take back that last part. She’s probably just become more tactful."

"I really don’t know what she’s thinking. Why refuse to work with you? A place like the Lower City District is so filthy, chaotic, and smelly. Why would she want to stay there?"

Bai Lei shrugged. "Who knows."

Meanwhile, Shen Lu was fascinated by the Light Brain, like a small child with a new toy.

As someone who used to be a hardcore internet user, Shen Lu had almost forgotten what the joy of surfing the web felt like.

The Light Brain, as an upgraded version of a phone, had a comprehensive and powerful set of functions.

The light screen could be enlarged without limit. Shen Lu could watch dramas, scroll through Big Eyes, and watch videos on DouDou all at the same time. She could even browse the orange shopping app to see what the e-commerce platforms here sold.

The software here wasn’t as varied as in her previous life. There was basically only one app for each function, with no duplicates.

The joy of surfing the web was exhilarating. Even after midnight, Shen Lu was still wide awake.

Fu Cheng, who was waiting for Shen Lu to come to bed, wished he could sit up and turn off her Light Brain.

’Is the Light Brain really that fun?’

’So fun you’d forget to eat or sleep?’

Because the original owner’s identity had changed, all her previous accounts on various platforms were now defunct.

So, Shen Lu registered a new account on every platform with the ID "Little Deer Cuisine."

If she wanted to make her little shop bigger and stronger, online promotion was essential. Shen Lu hadn’t thought of a promotion plan yet, but registering the accounts was a good first step.

Glancing at the time, Shen Lu almost let out a shriek.

’I was just playing on the Light Brain for a bit, how is it one in the morning already!’

’This is a disaster!’

She had to wake up early tomorrow, and she hadn’t even started braising the chicken legs and dried tofu.

Shen Lu scrambled to get the chicken legs and dried tofu braising. By the time she finally lay down in bed, half an hour had passed.

Fortunately, she fell asleep quickly, sinking into a deep slumber in less than a minute.

Fu Cheng, who had been waiting for a long time, took her hand and let out a long, soft sigh.

’Seeing her so busy every day, she hasn’t had a proper rest in so long, let alone any time to play. No wonder she’d lose track of time playing on the Light Brain.’

’If only I could help her.’

「 ... 」

Shen Lu was a sound sleeper. Although she’d slept a few hours less than yesterday, she was still in good spirits.

Pulling her hand from Fu Cheng’s palm, Shen Lu got out of bed and stretched.

She quickly washed up and ate, put several more pounds of chicken legs and dried tofu on to braise, then grabbed her tools and headed out to the junkyard with Cai Su.
