Chapter 725

"I'm not walking anymore; let's queue here." Ma Xiaotong squatted on the ground, acting shamelessly.

"I'm not walking anymore either!" Guan Li also wailed, "I'm exhausted."

The others didn't want to walk anymore either, so Liu Rui had to compromise: "Fine, let's queue here!"

This queue lasted for more than half an hour. Jiang Yuyue and the others entered the small shop; there were three people busy inside: a middle-aged couple and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

"Boss, business is good, right?" Jiang Yuyue asked with a smile.

The boss had a lean build, long hair tied in a braid with a rubber band, a very clean face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes; you could tell he was a handsome guy when he was young.

Moreover, now that he was middle-aged, he hadn't become a greasy uncle but instead added a kind of mature charm.

"It's okay!" The boss's smile was very warm, "They are all here to buy Very Cola."

Liu Rui looked a bit dumbfounded, her face flushed, and her heart pounding. This uncle was so handsome, but seeing the woman and girl next to him, her heart calmed down a bit. Sigh, you were born before I was born, and I was born when you were already old; heaven plays tricks on people.

This girl's infatuated look was seen by Guan Li, who pursed her lips and smiled, poking Liu Rui.

"Infatuated girl, is uncle very handsome?"

"Mm-hmm..." Liu Rui nodded vigorously, then reacted, "Do you think uncle is handsome too?"

Guan Li nodded: "I admit it, but I'm not like you, drooling."

"Ah?" Liu Rui hurriedly wiped the corner of her mouth with her hand, then angrily hit Guan Li, "You lied to me again."

"What's wrong?" Yang Xiaoju was holding a bottle of Very Cola and turned around to see Liu Rui and Guan Li whispering something, "What are you talking about?"

"Nothing!" Liu Rui hurriedly left Guan Li and walked over, "Give me a box of Very Cola."

"Alright!" The boss bent down, moved out a box of Very Cola from inside, and placed it at Liu Rui's feet.

Guan Li said: "Boss, give me a box of Very Cola too."

Except for Yang Xiaoju, the eight people in the dormitory all had fairly good family conditions, so they each bought a box.

As for Yang Xiaoju, she only bought one bottle, and the others didn't say anything, including Jiang Yuyue.

Usually, they could help Yang Xiaoju in a very subtle way and would never give alms in a way that showed pity.

Even when dining out, they wouldn't refuse if Yang Xiaoju treated them. But they would definitely compensate Yang Xiaoju in other places.

Yang Xiaoju also knew in her heart that this was the sisters fearing to hurt her self-esteem and also a sign of respect for her.

Therefore, she had never refused these acts of kindness. Facing the care and protection of her roommates, if she refused, it wouldn't be protecting her self-esteem but being pretentious, which would hurt the friendship between them.

"Xiaoju!" Liu Rui pointed to the cola in Yang Xiaoju's hand, "Open it quickly and see if it's 'another bottle' or a prize number. If it's 'another bottle', go exchange it quickly."

Yang Xiaoju unscrewed the cap and saw it was "another bottle".

"Boss, another bottle!"

"Alright!" The boss casually took a bottle of Very Cola from the shelf.

Yang Xiaoju unscrewed the cap again, unexpectedly it was still "another bottle": "Still!"

"Good luck." The boss took another bottle of Very Cola, "If this bottle isn't 'another bottle', it will definitely be a big prize."

Yang Xiaoju unscrewed it, and inside the cap was a string of numbers: "This is a prize redemption code!"

"Let me see!" Guan Li took it, "Boss, thank you for your kind words. If we really win a big prize, we'll definitely give you a red envelope."

The boss laughed out loud: "Then I'll wait for your red envelope."

Guan Li returned the cap to Yang Xiaoju: "Keep it safe; what if you really win a prize?"

Yang Xiaoju put the cap into her pocket very carefully; she really had a small expectation—she didn't need to win a big prize, just an electric fan would do.

When she went home, she would put the electric fan in the school classroom so that it wouldn't be so stuffy in the summer, and the children would be more comfortable.

"You guys drink these two bottles; I have this one, and it's enough." Yang Xiaoju pointed to the two bottles of cola without caps.

"Ah!"

The girl who was busy arranging goods suddenly screamed when she saw Jiang Yuyue.

Her mother was startled and said angrily: "Were you bitten by a cat? You scared me to death."

The girl casually grabbed a notebook and a ballpoint pen from the shelf and ran to Jiang Yuyue with glowing eyes.

"Jiang Yuyue, give me an autograph!"

Jiang Yuyue signed the girl's autograph with a smile, and the girl screamed again in excitement, then hugged Jiang Yuyue.

"I really like your songs. I heard you performed at the Dicos balcony show. Later, I went for several days in a row, but I didn't see you."

"There will definitely be opportunities in the future." Jiang Yuyue said: "However, it's fine to listen to songs usually, but don't chase stars. Study hard and get into a good university; that's what you should be doing at your age."

The girl blushed. Her mother had said these words many times, but she was very resistant to them, and the mother and daughter often quarreled. But today, when Jiang Yuyue said it, she really listened.

"I... I will work hard."

Hearing her daughter's words, the mother was stunned and looked up at Jiang Yuyue.

She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say it, only a smile appeared on her face.

Jiang Yuyue looked at the long queue outside, and the smile on her face never disappeared: "Boss, there are so many people queuing outside; is there enough Very Cola stock? Will it sell out?"

"No!" The boss was getting cola for other customers, "For this prize-winning sale, the manufacturer was well prepared. The stock prepared by the distributors is very sufficient. If it sells out, make a phone call, and it will definitely be delivered within two hours."

Jiang Yuyue asked again: "How is Pepsi Cola selling?"

The boss shook his head: "It sold very fiercely at the beginning, but today not a single bottle was sold; everyone is buying Very Cola. However, this is also normal. Pepsi's prizes are too far behind Very Cola's.

Pepsi's first prize is a tape recorder, while Very Cola's first prize is a small car, and the fifth prize is a tape recorder; how can they compare? Moreover, Pepsi draws prizes once a year, while Very draws prizes once a quarter.

They are both colas and drink the same; who wouldn't buy Very? Drawing prizes four times a year, the probability of winning is several times higher than Pepsi's."

Jiang Yuyue's eyes curved into crescents: "Boss, we're leaving."

Several young women, except for Yang Xiaoju, each holding a box of cola, left the small shop and got into two yellow minivans.

"Youth." The boss looked at Jiang Yuyue and the others' backs, sighed with emotion, and then looked at his wife.

Although her body had lost its shape and there was meat where it should be thin, she was also a famous beauty when she was young. Finally, among many pursuers, she was attracted by his talent.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the boss's face. At this moment, his wife also looked up at him.

The look in his wife's eyes was still as gentle as when they first fell in love, making his heart beat faster involuntarily.

"What are you looking at!" The woman roared like a lion, "Why aren't you working quickly? Don't you see so many people waiting?"

The boss was jolted back to reality and quickly got drinks for customers and collected money.
