Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!

Chapter 384 - Stealing Again?

Chapter 384: Stealing Again?

After everyone returned to the city, the most difficult thing was the allocation of housing.

There were only three rooms, so there was no way for so many people to live in it. In the end, they could only let the people from Yun Lin’s family live in the room that Yun Qiao had previously lived in. The Old Master, the Old Madam, and Yun Shan stayed in the master bedroom, the remaining three people lived in the other second bedroom.

Yun Gang’s family lived in the shop that they had rented. Although the journey was a little far, it was still much more comfortable than the whole family barely squeezing together.

“Children, come and pick them up. These are the new year’s products that I have stocked up.”

Yesterday was New Year’s Eve. It was the last day of work for Chen Li at the snack shop. After work today, she rushed to the nearby market to stock up on the new year’s products. As of tomorrow, all the shops would be closed.

“What delicious food did you buy?”

Yun Yang was the first to surround them. Although he was only a child now, he was already as powerful as an adult. He quickly took over the new year’s goods and stored them in the storeroom.

“There are some dry rations that are not sold in the countryside. There are also a few salted fish, a few bags of pickled vegetables, and some wild eggs, pork, drumsticks, sausages, and so on. There’s also something an old woman gave it to me. I don’t know what it is, but it seems to be quite fragrant,” said Chen Li.

“Then what’s in this bag? It looks colorful.”

Hearing that there was food, Yun Zhu ran out and asked while looking at another bag.

“Oh, these are some benefits given to our employees by Boss Jing. These are some high-end snacks that haven’t been sold this year. The colorful ones are their packaging bags. There’s also half a box of chocolates at the bottom. Boss Jing assigned them to our employees after they were left,” Chen Li explained.

“These are just nice. After the New Year’s Eve dinner, we can give them to you kids to eat. You can also share the chocolates with your family and play games while eating.”

Chen Li had arranged these things very well.

......

Yun Zhu looked at these high-grade snacks that he had never eaten before. His mouth was already dripping with saliva.

Yun Yang hurriedly took another bag of snacks from the ground and stored them in his storage room. Yun Zhu had a history of stealing snacks, so Yun Yang no longer trusted this person.

After a sumptuous dinner, everyone returned to their respective places. Some adults gathered to play cards, while the women chatted idly and ate a handful of sunflower seeds and candy.

The Old Madam’s body seemed to have almost recovered.

She had not been seriously ill in the first place, so the Old Madam had insisted to come to the city to celebrate the new year because of this. Now that she had gotten what she wanted, coupled with the medicine that doctor Lu had prescribed to cure the cold, everything would be fine!

“Mom, I think there are still a lot of snacks left. Why don’t we share some tonight and save some for the New Year tomorrow?”

Even though Yun Yang had grown up, he still had the temperament of a child. When he ate the candy on the plate, he felt that it was tasteless. He was still thinking about the few chocolates in the warehouse.

“You’re just a little greedy cat. Alright then. I’ll give you kids a taste tonight,” Chen Li said with a smile.

“Long live mommy! You’re the best!” Yun Yang said to Chen Li with a fawning expression.

“Alright, alright. Don’t just sit there and suck up,” Chen Li scolded with a smile.

Chen Li suddenly walked to the door of the storeroom and was shocked.

A ghastly pale face appeared in front of her!

“Ah!”

Chen Li’s scream alarmed the men who were playing cards and the women who were eating sunflower seeds. Everyone came out to the storeroom to have a look.

How was this a ghastly face? This was clearly a human face!

It turned out that Yun Zhu was too embarrassed to mention eating these chocolates, but he was so greedy that he had no choice. He could only take his small flashlight and secretly go to the storeroom. Relying on the weak light, he found the bag of snacks. Then, he held the bag of snacks in his arms, and the flashlight was naturally placed in front of his chest.

He lowered his head to eat the snacks, and the light of the flashlight naturally shone from his chin to the top of his head. From a distance, it looked like a glowing ghost face.

Chen Li was not prepared at all, of course, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.
