Chapter 483: Fu Zhi Is The Shop Owner - 3

Ouyang Ya put the chopstick down and turned around to look at Mu Chenxi. “What do you mean she’s been busy recently? I won’t be staying in Yu City for too long.”

Truth be told, if it were not for Ouyang Feng, Ouyang Ya would never have come to Yu City. She would have stayed in the Ouyang Mansion to deal with other problems or hone her skills, especially since she’d heard from the elder that something big had happened in Country M that might affect the status of the Ouyang Family.

The rest of the students pricked their ears up to listen to the conversation between Ouyang Ya and Mu Chenxi. Some of them even pulled their phones out and began searching the shop that they’d mentioned.

Initially, they intended to impress Ouyang Ya by helping her buy the medicine from the shop. However, the moment they saw the price of the medicine, all of them chickened out.

They could not afford to buy even a single pill from this shop.

Ouyang Ya was not paying attention to any of them. She pinched the spot between her brows and said, “You have to get in touch with your master this month and ask her to locate the shop owner for me. I’m not a very patient person. I’ve given you all the help you need, so it’s your turn to hold up your end of the bargain. I’m sure you know what the consequences of not fulfilling your promise are, right, Ms. Mu?”

Mu Chenxi froze.

“When I was 3 years old…”

At the other table, Lu Yumo was still talking about his miserable childhood. “I went to my grandpa’s house. I tripped over my own feet, and guess what? The village was so backward that there wasn’t a place for us to buy medicine. Had the spectacled older brother who lived next door not given me a bottle of unknown medicine, I would have needed to amputate my leg.”

The word “medicine” reminded Su Xing of her recent experience, and her eyes turned red around the rims. She then nodded profusely and added, “I never thought that medicine would be so expensive nowadays. My friend’s father is sick. The doctor at the hospital didn’t know how to treat him, so he asked him to buy some vitamins for his father, but…”

Fu Zhi cocked her head to look at Su Xing and asked, “What did the doctor say?”

“His father got into a pretty terrible car accident that left him in bed for a few weeks. Besides, he is old and doesn’t have a healthy body to begin with. He used to work in a chemical factory before, and after the accident, his health began to deteriorate.”

Initially, Su Xing had not planned to tell any of them about this at all, for she saw no reason to tell them. Although the medicine from the Taobao shop was costly, it was the real deal. Most of the people who bought medicine from this shop said that their medicine had really helped them. However, there was nothing Fu Zhi or her other friends could do even if she told them about the situation. Therefore, rather than making them worry, she’d decided to figure out a solution herself.

Unfortunately, she had not come up with a plan even though she had been racking her brains for days. She kept blaming herself for being so useless and couldn’t handle the pressure anymore, so she’d decided to tell them all about it today.

“Pei Rang’s family didn’t have the money to buy the medicine, and he has been absent from school for days…”

Fu Zhi turned to look at Song Fang.

Upon receiving her signal, Song Fang said, “He’s not a student of No.1 High School, but he went to the same kindergarten as Su Xing. Well, he’s one of the most famous students in his school and he… Anyway, that’s all I know about him.”

After saying that, Song Fang turned his head and asked Su Xing, “How expensive is the medicine? Why don’t we all chip in and buy the medicine for his father? That way, he can at least go back to school and continue his studies.”

“I’ve seen the bills. His father only needs 3 bottles of medicine, but one bottle costs 800,000 yuan.”

“800,000 yuan for one bottle? Is the medicine made of gold?” Song Fang said.

“Are you sure they’re not being scammed?” Lu Yubai chimed in.

“No! The shop is certified by Taobao, so I’m positive it’s not a dishonest shop!”

As if she was worried that they would not believe her, Su Xing took her phone out. While she searched through Taobao, she said, “Besides, the shop is recommended by Master Sun Sanzhen.”

She showed her phone to Song Fang and Lu Yubai. Honestly, Su Xing had more than enough money to buy the medicine for Pei Rang’s father. “It’s just that Pei Rang didn’t want me to waste money, and his dad’s state is bad enough, so I don’t want him to be unhappy because of me.”

From the moment Su Xing had first said about the Taobao shop, Fu Zhi had gotten a hunch that she was talking about her shop. It was only when Song Fang took a look at Su Xing’s phone and shouted out loud that she knew her hunch had been correct.

“What? The shop’s name is ‘Definitely Not A Dishonest Shop’? What is the difference between this and a bank robber saying he is actually Fu Zhao? Do you actually believe this stuff, Su Xing? Are you sure you’re not out of your mind? And they are selling one bottle of medicine for 800,000 yuan? Are you kidding me?”

Since Lu Yubai was not keen on bad-mouthing someone behind their back, Song Fang wrapped his arm around Lu Yumo’s shoulder and said, “This kind of dishonest shop needs to be punished for trying to cheat our friend out of his money. Right, Yumo? Let’s go and teach the owner of the shop a lesson!”

Lu Yumo, the owner of “Definitely Not A Dishonest Shop”, fell silent. He slapped Song Fang on the cheek and shouted, “Let me show you what a father’s love is like first!”

Song Fang was stunned. He did not know what was wrong with Lu Yumo and why he had slapped his cheek. He covered his face with his hand in disbelief as he said, “I was scolding the owner of the shop. Why did you slap me? Am I not your best buddy anymore?”

‘The hell you are!’

With that thought in mind, Lu Yumo harrumphed coldly and returned Su Xing’s phone to her. Just as he was about to tell her that there was nothing wrong with the shop, a snort of laughter erupted behind him.

“If you don’t know anything, just keep your mouth shut. This shop is the most professional shop you could find. If you don’t find the medicine you want in this shop, you won’t be able to find it elsewhere.”

Lu Yumo did not need to turn his head. He knew it was Mu Chenxi talking.

Song Fang rolled his eyes and said, “So what if you know so much? You’re not Z God, and nobody will listen to you anyway.”

Mu Chenxi was stumped.

“Let’s eat, Chenxi,” Ouyang Ya said as she patted Mu Chenxi’s shoulder.

Mu Chenxi pouted her mouth and said, “I was being nice to them, but they thought I was kidding.”

She picked at a chunk of asparagus in her bowl and got lost in thought. Before this, the reason she had told Su Xing about the shop had been to sow discord between her and Fu Zhi. Right now, Su Xing was seeking Fu Zhi’s help, right? Otherwise, she would not have told her any of this.

Su Xing might not feel anything if Fu Zhi did not help her the first two times, but what about the third or fourth time? If Fu Zhi was unable to help Su Xing in any way, Mu Chenxi was confident that Su Xing would slowly walk away from her, or even better, end her friendship with Fu Zhi.

At the thought of this possibility, Mu Chenxi happily had another sip of her soup as she observed the neighboring table out of the corner of her eyes.

Su Xing had already put her phone back in her pocket.

“How much money does your friend have?” An apathetic voice rang out, snapping Mu Chenxi out of her thoughts.

Fu Zhi was sitting in her chair now. The sun was filtered through the window, shining on her face and dying her flawless face with a layer of gold.

Mu Chenxi’s heart skipped a beat, and after returning to her senses, she was somewhat chagrined to find that Fu Zhi was good-looking.

Su Xing thought for a while before saying, “The driver’s family has no money, so he only paid 200,000 yuan. After paying the medical bills, I guess he has about 70,000 to 80,000 yuan left in savings now.”

‘70,000 to 80,000 yuan? That’s a little far from 2.4 million yuan.’

Wu Zhiheng then told Wu Zhiyou, “You see, I bet Fu Zhi would not help her at all considering how stingy she is.”

After all, Fu Zhi had not given him back anything after scamming him out of his money.

Wu Zhiyou then said, “So? Is it Fu Zhi’s responsibility to help Su Xing? Or do you always love to spend a few million to help people, Mr. Saint?”

“How can you talk to your brother like that?”

“I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Keep your mouth shut and eat sh*t.”

Wu Zhiheng was stumped.

—

Fu Zhi took her phone out and then asked Su Xing, “His father needs only three bottles of medicine, right? I will buy it for him.”

Su Xing waved her hand. “No, Zhizhi. You didn’t get what I meant. Pei Rang doesn’t have any money, so even if you buy the medicine for him, he won’t have any money to pay you back…”

“It’s okay. I’ve bought from this shop before, so I can ask the shop owner for a discount.”

‘A discount?’

Mu Chenxi and Ouyang Ya froze, and it took them a while to process what Fu Zhi had just said.

Mu Chenxi thought she had heard the funniest joke in the world. The corner of her mouth curled up into a sarcastic grin as she said, “Who the hell do you think you are? You’ll ask the shop owner for a discount? Do you know how expensive the materials and ingredients used to make the medicine are? All the medicine in the shop is of the highest quality! Do you really think she will give you a discount just because you asked for it?”

Mu Chenxi shouted fervently, while Ouyang Ya stayed calm.

She had dealt with this shop owner before and knew how terrible the temper of the shop owner was. She did not plan to stop Fu Zhi at all, as she wanted to see Fu Zhi get humiliated by the shop owner as well.

“I know Ms. Fu just wants to help her friend. The shop owner didn’t give me a discount when I wanted to order a batch of medicine from her last time, but maybe she will agree to your demand after seeing your sincerity and knowing how poor your friend is.”

Everyone, including Su Xing, was able to read between the lines. They all knew what Ouyang Ya was trying to say. Since the shop owner had not given Ouyang Ya a discount, it went without saying that she would not give Fu Zhi a discount either.

Su Xing tugged at Fu Zhi’s sleeve and said, “It’s okay, Fu Zhi. I know you want to help me, but the shop owner has a fiery temper. I’m thinking of contacting a doctor in the capital to ask if there’s another way…”

“Done,” Fu Zhi said before Su Xing could finish her sentence. “Three bottles for 150,000 yuan. That’s the lowest I can do. Someone will deliver the medicine here later, and your friend can pay the money back in installments after his father gets better.”

Su Xing was stunned. Her eyes widened in shock as she shouted, her voice rising by an octave, “Huh? I’ve been begging the shop owner for the past few days, and she refused to give me a discount. Did you really buy the medicine at a lower price? You’re not lying to me, right?”

Just like Su Xing, Ouyang Ya did not believe Fu Zhi either.

The atmosphere in the hall became strange.

Mu Chenxi opened and closed her mouth several times, wanting to say something, but no words came out of her lips. She looked at Ouyang Ya in disbelief and then heard Ouyang Ya shout, “That’s impossible! Fu Zhi, you’re lying!”

She did not believe that the shop owner would sell a medicine that cost 2.4 million yuan at 150,000 yuan to Fu Zhi.

The boys from Hang Yuan nodded in assent.

“Even Ms. Ouyang couldn’t get a discount from the shop owner, and you’re saying you got one? You really have to work harder on your lies.”

“Yeah, right. Nobody will look down on you even if you can’t buy the medicine, so there’s no point in keeping up appearances.”

Fu Zhi paid them no mind. She just looked at Su Xing and said, “The price of the medicine has been lowered. If you’re worried that your friend will not believe you, you can record a short video of it.”

Fu Zhi did not sound like she was lying, but how was that even possible?

The more Ouyang Ya thought about it, the more nervous she became. She really wanted to know what Fu Zhi had told the shop owner and how much Fu Zhi had spent to buy the medicine. While looking at Fu Zhi. who was helping Su Xing record the video, Ouyang Ya gritted her teeth and pulled Fu Zhi’s phone out of her hand.

Lu Yubai was the first one to react. He shot up from his chair and hissed, “Ms. Ouyang! What the hell are you doing? Give Fu Zhi’s phone back to us!”

Ouyang Ya ignored Lu Yubai. She lowered her head, and the moment she saw the interface, her brain went blank, as if an explosion had taken place in it.

She was so shocked and angry that she was shaking incessantly and nearly dropped Fu Zhi’s phone on the floor. Just before she could come back to her senses, Mu Chenxi came up to her. “Let me see! Let me see! I want to see if she’s lying or not!”

Then, Ouyang Ya heard Mu Chenxi say, “Huh? She wasn’t talking to the shop owner at all!”

Ouyang Ya heaved a sigh of relief. However, she had underestimated Mu Chenxi’s stupidity.

“This is the seller interface! Ha ha ha! Fu Zhi! You’re not talking to the shop owner at all!”

Ouyang Ya did not know what to say. She felt that the biggest mistake she had made was cooperating with an idiot like Mu Chenxi.

Everyone fell silent, and nobody spoke for a bit.

Mu Chenxi laughed for a while. Τhen, she finally realized something was amiss.
