Chapter 23: Life is full of surprises

Her cold laugh, though not very loud, was still heard by the surrounding females, and the gazes that had originally been directed at Wu Yue were no longer as unrestrained as before.

It's clear that daring to face Aya head-on, this seemingly weak little female also isn't good-tempered.

Aya was bouncing around like a fire-spitting dragon, but Wu Yue completely ignored her, just chatting and laughing with her nearby companions.

"Aya, it's better not to pay attention to that female; her body is so weak that no male would want to mate with her, and a weak female won't live long."

With the persuasion of the nearby females, perhaps also imagining Wu Yue's miserable future, Aya's anger dissipated; she merely gave Wu Yue, who was surrounded by Mu Jing and a few others, a fierce glare, and stopped bouncing around.

The gathering spot isn't far, and the food gathered is rather monotonous—only bitter greens.

After returning to the tribe, everyone dispersed and went back to their own homes.

Carrying a woven bag that had already come somewhat undone, Wu Yue, upon returning to the cave, collapsed onto her original straw bed.

Enduring the bodily soreness, she took off the woven bag, pulled out the bitter greens and hemostatic grass inside, put half of the bitter greens back into the bag and tidied it, then Wu Yue called the system.

"Omnipotent beloved system, are you there?"

"Ding ding ding ding~ The handsome system is online; may I ask what you need?"

Perhaps pleased by Wu Yue's rainbow farts, the system's service attitude this time could practically earn a five-star rating.

"Submit quest."

After a burst of soft light, a small porcelain bottle appeared on the straw bed beside her; its pristine white body bore no markings, but Wu Yue knew it contained exactly the "Strong Body Pill" she had long dreamed of.

She was about to swallow the pill from the bottle when the system suddenly spoke: "Do you want to sell the bitter greens and hemostatic grass?"

"Sell." Wu Yue felt a bit expectant; although her hemostatic grass was running low, the bitter greens, however—

"Congratulations, host; you earned 17 points from selling the gathered bitter greens and hemostatic grass. Keep it up and achieve even greater results, oh yeah~"

Wu Yue looked dog-faced and bewildered: What the heck???

Such a heap of bitter greens only exchanged for 7 points?

"System, what's the unit price of bitter greens?" Wu Yue asked coolly.

The system's attitude was very friendly: "Each bitter green plant costs 0.1 point."

"Isn't this pricing a bit hasty?" Wu Yue only felt that her dream of striking it rich with her first fortune was instantly shattered.

The dog system is really doggy.

Looking at those pitiful double digits, massaging her sore legs and arms, Wu Yue felt utterly heartbroken.

What cheap labor she is!!!

"Tongzi, open the store, I want to buy something." Never mind the talk, first buy some underwear; the days of going commando are too sour and refreshing, she doesn't want to experience that again.

"It's an honor to serve you."

As soon as the system's voice fell, a transparent interface appeared before her eyes.

"Search for little underwear."

As soon as her voice fell, the screen filled with various kinds of underwear.

From delicate, small children's styles to—holy shit!!!

Wu Yue stroked her chin, that big flower underpants printed with red flowers and green leaves, full of strong rural vibes,

Wu Yue silently mocked the system's bizarre aesthetic; who with a messed-up brain would buy this thing that's even on the shelves?

After a moment, looking at the big flower underpants in her hand, whose quality was truly top-notch, the Wu Yue with a messed-up brain wiped her face, life is full of surprises.
