Chapter 266: Trouble
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The snack street was narrow, so Jiang Li could only park the car in a nearby parking lot and walk over to find Ban Yue.
This snack street was quite famous in Sea City. It had existed for a long time and was an old street, so it became the most popular place in Sea City.
Thus, there were more people here all year round, day and night.
Jiang Li looked for Ban Yue while avoiding the crowded crowd.
After many twists and turns, she finally found the location of Ban Yue. It seemed to be a 100-year-old grocery store. The store was clean and tidy. Even though it was not time for lunch, there were many people inside.
“Excuse me, is there a girl named Ban Yue here?”
After searching around, Jiang Li still could not find Ban Yue. Jiang Li could only ask the cashier at the counter.
The cashier was a mean-looking girl. She looked like she was in her early twenties, but her figure was very good. Her tight-knitted clothes outlined her impressive figure.
The cashier sized up Jiang Li. After seeing Jiang Li’s appearance, she could not hide the jealousy in her eyes.
She snorted coldly. “I don’t know.”
Jiang Li frowned, “Really? A pretty girl with a mole between her eyebrows. She’s about this tall.”
Jiang Li gestured in front of her. That should not be it. This was the location.
“If I say she’s not here, then she’s not here. I don’t know who Ban Yue is.” The cashier shook her face impatiently. “Are you going to eat or not? If you’re not going to eat, then don’t disturb other customers’ orders, okay?”
Jiang Li was helpless. This cashier had a bad temper, but Jiang Li could not do anything in her territory.
Jiang Li looked around the shop again. She wanted to go into the kitchen but was chased out by the cashier.
“Hey, hey, what’s wrong with you? Why don’t you have any manners? Who told you to break into our kitchen?!”
“I’m just going in to take a look.”
“Get lost, get lost, don’t make me get angry and chase you away!”
After saying that, the cashier wanted to ask the people in the kitchen to come out and chase Jiang Li away. There were so many people watching, so Jiang Li could not be unreasonable and fight.
She could only call Ban Yue again. The phone did not go through, but the ringtone came from the kitchen.
Jiang Li’s expression changed. She pushed aside the people who were blocking her and rushed into the kitchen.
Ban Yue’s phone vibrated on the kitchen table, but no one could see where she was.
Jiang Li’s expression was slightly fierce as she stared at the cashier coldly. The cashier had goosebumps when Jiang Li looked at her like that.
“Why is Ban Yue’s phone here?”
“Ah?” The cashier looked at the phone in Jiang Li’s hand with a strange expression. “Isn’t that phone Ran Yue’s?”
“Ran Yue?” Jiang Li was puzzled at first, but then she figured it out. It was probably Ban Yue’s alias that she didn’t want people to know her real identity.
“Where is she?”
“Her?” The cashier’s eyes were somewhat disdainful as she asked the person in the kitchen, “Where did she go? How can she not be at work?”
“She just went out to take out the garbage.”
“Where did she go to take out the garbage?” Jiang Li was a little anxious. She had a feeling that something would happen.
“Just go out from here. Turn right about 100 meters.” One of the younger chefs pointed at the back door of the kitchen.
Jiang Li went out from the back door without thinking. The cashier’s face was very pale. She stared at the people in the kitchen and told them to work quickly. What were they standing there for!
Jiang Li followed the direction of the kitchen and came to where she was, but she found that there was no one there.
She walked further in and only then did Jiang Li hear faint footsteps and the sound of voices.
She got closer and listened carefully. She could hear Ban Yue’s voice intermittently.
Then, she saw that Ban Yue was surrounded by a few boys. One of the leading boys was approaching ban Yue with a wretched face. Just as he was about to touch ban Yue’s face with his perverted hands, Jiang Li shouted loudly.
“Stinky hooligan, stop!”
As soon as he shouted, that lecherous man was kicked to the ground by Jiang Li before he could react. Everything happened too suddenly. Even Ban Yue did not react for a moment. She did not know when Jiang Li appeared.
Jiang Li Protected Ban Yue behind her. “Are you alright?”
Ban Yue nodded her head.
“She’s fine. You’re going to be in trouble! Damn it, how dare you hit me?!”
The wretched man was helped up by the people beside him. He stared at Jiang Li and lecherously said, “However, if you’re willing to serve me with her, I’ll let you go.”
“Pfft, disgusting.”
Jiang Li spat, pulled Ban Yue up, and was about to leave.
“What? Do you want to leave after hitting me? Do you think I’m that easy to bully?”
