They were eating well when suddenly they were in a mess.

Xu Mo was very calm. He wanted to see what they were up to.

The man with the cigarette had long since thrown it away. He slapped the tabletop and said, “Your place is unhygienic. We got cockroaches from eating them.”

There was indeed a cockroach on the table, but it had nothing to do with Xu Mo.

As soon as he came in, he cleaned up. There was no such thing.

Xu Nanjin was so frightened that her face turned pale.

If you saw a cockroach in one place, there were already thousands of them out of sight.

She could not imagine being intimate with such a small thing countless times.

She would never believe there was such a thing!

Xu Mo said calmly, “What evidence do you have that this belongs to my place?”

“It’s from the rice. I almost threw up.”

“Impossible. There aren’t cockroaches in my place,” Xu Mo said firmly.

Li Tie was very impatient. He was already convinced by this egg fried rice.

The feeling irritated him. It was too much to swallow.

‘Why could some people just make money easily? God is so unfair.’

“If I say there is, then there is.” He stood up, trying to push Xu Mo.

However, when his hand touched him, he realized that he could not push him away.

This made him extremely annoyed. He picked up the stick and banged it on the table.

The bang was very intimidating.

“What do you want to do?” Xu Mo said coldly, “I won’t admit to something that’s not true. You brought it over from outside.”

He stood there, his momentum unyielding.

Li Tie sneered, wanting Xu Mo to suffer a little.

However, just as he raised his hand, Xu Mo twisted it behind him.

He couldn’t move with the force of it. He winced.

“Let go. My hand is going to break.

“What are you sitting around for? Do it now.”

The men stood up, shivering in their strange clothes and exaggerated hair dye.

Li Tie shouted, “Break his hand so that he can’t make Egg Fried Rice.”

They raised their sticks but dare not move forward.

“Get on with it, you fools.”

They took a step forward and finally made their move.

Xu Nanjin’s heart was in her throat. She took the spatula and went up to help.

Guo Xueming hesitated for a moment before standing behind them.

Xu Mo was silent. With a few bangs, he easily subdued them.

One against five. The battle had taken less than a minute.

The live-stream was silent for a few seconds before it exploded.

“What did I just see! The action was just too cool.”

“I knew they were up to no good. It’s funny how they get beaten down.”

“I didn’t have time to help, but I’m finally at ease.”

“I was ready to call the police. I didn’t know they were so lousy. It felt like it was over before I’d seen enough.”

“I’m dying of laughter. I suddenly feel like I’m watching a comedy.”

“Why are you pretending to be tough? You’re so weak.”

Li Tie felt that his hand was about to break. He cried and begged for mercy. “Let me go. I was wrong. I’m willing to compensate.”

He did not expect Xu Mo to be so strong. He already regretted it.

It seemed that even if he could not stand it, he could only endure it.

Xu Mo let go of them. Seeing that they were unable to withstand a single blow, he said, “Other people pays15 yuan each. As for you, just pay 150 yuan each. It’s a total of 750 yuan. Hurry up and transfer the money.”

Although his hand still hurt, Li Tie endured the pain and asked, “Why did you increase the price tenfold? You’re robbing me.”

“Then pay 60 yuan for the meal and compensate the shop for the loss of 1,000 yuan. Choose for yourself.”

“You didn’t lose anything…”

Xu Mo cracked his knuckles and took a step forward.

Li Tie suddenly felt that the man in front of him was really unfathomable. The piercing pain in his hand forced him to give in.

If he continued to struggle, he would probably not walk out.

He said quickly, “Don’t be rash. I’ll pay for the meal immediately.”

He took out his phone and scanned the QR code. He immediately transferred the money.

As he turned to leave, Xu Mo said, “Take the cockroach away. If I hear you spouting nonsense outside, don’t blame me for being rude.”

Although the men were dressed so strangely, he noticed that one of them looked vaguely familiar.

He had frequented this street before and knew that the guy was the one selling fruits at the front.

The more Li Tie thought about it, the more indignant he became.

He suddenly faced Xu Mo and swallowed the cockroach.

His plan hadn’t worked, but he wanted to disgust others.

The action stunned everyone.

After chewing, they left.

The people in the live-stream were also dumbfounded and sent out comments.

“Am I seeing things or is the world getting confusing? Why did he eat a cockroach?”

“It’s disgusting. I watched him pull the cockroach out of his pocket and swallow it. It was unbearable.”

“Fortunately, I have a strong tolerance. It doesn’t affect me from going to eat the egg fried rice tonight.”

“It’s easy to get jealous when you do a good business. You must take care, boss.”

“A warning for everyone. They’re the fruit shop. They must have caught the roach from their place. Don’t buy their fruits next time.”

“Understood. Don’t go to the fruit sellers.”

“Never go down that street to buy fruit again.”

Xu Mo cleared the table. Everything was normal.

He said, “Since we already have help here, you should go back.”

“Mother-in-law is going back tomorrow. Stay with her more.”

After what had just happened, Xu Nanjin was even more reluctant to leave.

Although Guo Xueming was standing behind him when the incident happened, if something really happened, only she would stand firmly beside Xu Mo.

She shook her head. “No,” she said firmly. “I want to work with you.”

Seeing her determined gaze, Xu Mo’s heart skipped a beat.

He thought about the way she had bravely swung the spatula. Although it hadn’t worked, her eyes were filled with him.

Touched, he smiled and nodded.

Xu Nanjin blushed at his smile and quickly turned around.

Why couldn’t she resist Xu Mo’s smile?

He looked so good when he smiled. And that smile was only for her.

This was just a sideshow. Soon there were people outside eating egg fried rice, including those who had just watched the live stream.

“Boss, I’m glad you’re okay. I pedaled until the bike chain was on fire.”

“I called a cab. The driver was getting annoyed with me.”

“Was I the only one running here? I feel like I can go to the Olympic 1,000-meter finals with my speed.”

Faced with everyone’s concern, Xu Mo smiled and said, “I’m fine. Thank you, everyone.”

“We’ll open early today. Everyone, sit in the shop and I’ll make egg fried rice for you immediately.”

Because it wasn’t time yet, he couldn’t set up the stall on the main road outside yet.

Although the interior of the shop wasn’t big, it could still hold five to six tables.

The stove fire burned again, turning Xu Mo’s face red.

Before long, lines began to form in front of the store.

Using the time accelerator, everyone quickly ate the fragrant egg fried rice.

The rice and eggs were exchanged from the system. The rice made was better, and the fried eggs were more fragrant.

At the time yesterday, Xu Mo saw Li Xiangyang walking over.
