Shen Chutang was practically fuming to the point of laughter. There were actually people in this day and age who dared to try and take her person away right in front of her very eyes—did they really think she was dead?

Just as she stepped forward, Lu Beiqin’s large hand grabbed her slender arm and pulled her close to his side. His pitch-black, chilling gaze stared intently at Shen Duoduo. "Get lost."

Shen Duoduo instantly lost all her face. "I am a young woman, is it appropriate for you to speak to me like this? Are you even a man?!"

Lu Beiqin’s expression remained devoid of any extra emotion. "If you weren't a woman, do you think you'd still be standing here talking to me."

Meeting Lu Beiqin's eyes, Shen Duoduo was instantly enveloped by a sense of mortal danger. A chill ran up the soles of her feet, as if she were about to be dragged into the abyss the next second and smashed to pieces!

Du Xiaoxing immediately started shouting, "What, you still want to hit someone?! Come and look, everyone, this smelly street vendor actually wants to hit people! Is there no justice left in this world?"

Shen Duoduo chimed in as well, "Exactly! A lowly piece of trash like you dares to hit me? What kind of thing do you think you are! You're not even worthy of being a dog for me!"

There were quite a few people around, and many heard the commotion and turned to look in this direction.

With them shouting like this, customers who had intended to buy the cold tossed dishes hesitated and held back, not daring to step forward.

Presuming that Lu Beiqin wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her, Shen Duoduo shouted even more frantically.

"Do you guys even dare to buy their stuff? Be careful you don't catch a disease from eating it!"

Shen Chutang gently shook off Lu Beiqin's hand. "With so many people here, it's inconvenient for you to act. Let me handle it."

With that, Shen Chutang slowly walked up to them with a smile on her face. "Everything I sell is made by my own hands, and safety is guaranteed. Since you insist that it's unhealthy, do you have any evidence?"

Shen Duoduo figured that Shen Chutang was scared now, knowing that anyone doing business feared running into this kind of trouble most of all.

Looking at Shen Chutang, Shen Duoduo lowered her voice, her eyes filled with threat. "If you're willing to kneel down and apologize to me, I won't pursue this matter further. Otherwise, I'll bring my friends here to cause trouble every single day, and you can forget about ever setting up your stall again!"

Shen Chutang smiled. "Everything is negotiable."

After speaking, she beckoned to Shen Duoduo and Du Xiaoxing, lowering her voice. "I can even give you both a little extra benefit."

Hearing the word benefit, the two of them immediately leaned closer.

Shen Chutang moved swiftly, pressing two acupuncture points on their waists in a flash.

Before Shen Duoduo could even react, Shen Chutang patted them on their shoulders. "Look, you've gotten something on you."

Shen Duoduo slapped Shen Chutang's hand away. "Don't try to act all friendly with me!"

Du Xiaoxing looked at her coldly. "Spit it out, what's the benefit? If you lack sincerity, don't blame us for continuing to scream!"

Shen Chutang crossed her arms and smiled. "My dears, with your mouths smelling so foul, could it be that you've grown fleas on your bodies?"

It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything, but prompted by Shen Chutang's words, Du Xiaoxing and Shen Duoduo both felt an itching sensation all over their bodies and couldn't help but start scratching.

Yet the more they scratched, the more their waists began to twist uncontrollably, resulting in the two of them wriggling about in bizarre postures.

Shen Duoduo scratched from her chest to her back. What on earth was going on? Why had she suddenly started itching all over, and why couldn't she stop?!

Unable to hold back any longer, Du Xiaoxing ran over to rub herself against a pillar of a neighboring shop, a maneuver that startled the shop owner.

"What on earth are they doing?"

"Ew... look at those movements of theirs, simply indecent!"

"The one who was shouting the loudest just now—is she doing a traditional Indian dance?"

Shen Duoduo's waist was twisting as if it no longer belonged to her, yet her whole body itched so fiercely that she couldn't stop even if she wanted to.

Recalling the brief moment Shen Chutang had touched her earlier, she guessed that Shen Chutang must have transferred fleas onto her. Furious, she shrieked, "Shen Chutang, you definitely did all of this, didn't you?! Anyone who buys things here will end up just like me!"

"Talk crap! The things our boss sells are definitely the best!"

Shen Chutang looked up in surprise to see Luo Shencheng, Lü Wendong, Xu Gaoyuan, Guan Zhenzhen, and薛云兰 walking over together. They were still carrying their schoolbags, apparently having just finished class.

Lü Wendong whipped out his mobile phone and aimed it directly at Shen Duoduo and Du Xiaoxing. "I heard you two screaming from way over there. Keep shouting, go on! Let's see who wants to trend on the hot searches!"

Unable to bear the itching and unwilling to lose any more face, Du Xiaoxing simply turned tail and ran.

Shen Duoduo had scratched her face until it was covered in marks, and realizing she was outmatched by their numbers, she had no choice but to leave as well.

Shen Chutang was puzzled. "Why haven't you guys gone home so late?"

They shouldn't have any classes on Saturday afternoons.

Lü Wendong explained, "We went to the milk tea shop to do our homework earlier, and we planned to come over for a late-night snack, only to hear someone screaming over your way."

Although the two troublemakers had left, the earlier customers still felt a lingering sense of misgiving and didn't dare to approach.

Shen Chutang sighed. "We probably won't be able to sell everything out tonight."

Lü Wendong and the others exchanged a glance, tossed their schoolbags by the cart, and shouted at the top of their lungs:

"Come take a look, folks! Fresh and delicious cold tossed dishes!"

"Top-student brand cold tossed dishes—eat them and become a top student!"
