Chapter 117: Who Are You Calling Cow Dung? Speak Clearly!
After the two of them got out of the car, Luo Hua immediately took out a walkie-talkie and arranged for a squad of bodyguards to enter the supermarket through the back door, just in case.
This time, Zhan Su came prepared with sunglasses and put them on as soon as he stepped out of the car. His icy, piercing eyes were hidden behind the large dark lenses, which also concealed half of his face. The sharp jawline and the shape of his red lips against white teeth made him look extraordinarily alluring.
Shi Qingqing almost froze again, staring in disbelief.
He was incredibly handsome—more tempting than any girl. Standing next to Zhan Su, she felt like a blatant green leaf, while he was the blooming red flower.
Her heart ached. Could there be any greater pressure than walking alongside such a national heartthrob?
"Random passerby, still daydreaming? Are you coming or not?" Zhan Su’s impatient voice sounded as he took the lead, stepping ahead.
Shi Qingqing smiled and followed, "Zhan Shuai, my name is Shi Qingqing, not 'random passerby.' Please, next time just call me by my name."
Her smile was mischievous. Not only was she trying to drag Zhan Su out of the car to help carry things, but she was also leading him to pay the bill. Since she hadn’t been given a salary, naturally, Zhan Su would have to foot the bill.
Yes, Shi Qingqing was a stingy miser.
Apart from spending on herself and her mother, she refused to financially support anyone else.

Outside the supermarket, the crowd was dense, people flowing in and out. Zhan Su slowed his pace noticeably.
Shi Qingqing sensed his nerves unraveling, an inexplicable tension hanging around him. Especially when several middle-aged women carrying grocery bags passed by, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Zhan Shuai, are you feeling hot? Why don’t you roll up your sleeves?" Shi Qingqing stepped forward and suggested.
Unexpectedly, Zhan Su half-embraced her, leaning his body against hers. "A bit uncomfortable. Just resting here."
Shi Qingqing recalled his current state—it was somewhat similar to when they first bumped into each other.
Is he having a relapse?
This young master Zhan definitely had some secret ailment!
She wanted to shake him off. Hey, only a boyfriend should get to do this, okay?
But thinking he was unwell, she couldn’t just ignore it.
Well, she’d bear with it.
"Why don’t you go back to the car and rest? I can go alone," she offered.
Without hesitation, Zhan Su replied, "No need. Just leaning is fine."
The supermarket was in the basement. The two of them leaned on each other as they took the escalator down.
Behind them followed two young women, their bodies exuding a strong scent of perfume.

They whispered excitedly.
"Wow, look at that handsome guy up front!"
"Really! Although you can’t see his upper face clearly, just his lower half is stunning. His aura is top-notch—just one glance makes your heart race..."
"Too bad his girlfriend looks so ordinary, dressed plainly. It’s like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung..."
Shi Qingqing... (crying face)
Is this for real?
Who’s his girlfriend anyway?
Also, who’s the cow dung? Someone better explain!
Fuming, she glanced up at Zhan Su.
He showed no expression; he was long accustomed to such gossip.
He was tall, half-embracing Shi Qingqing, his weight resting on her. Lowering his head, he whispered softly into her ear, "Suddenly, ‘cow dung’ sounds pretty good. If you don’t want to be called ‘random passerby,’ how about I call you ‘cow dung’ from now on?"
