Cheng Shuili originally wanted to tell Liang Shanbo the good news that there was watermelon to eat for that gluttonous girl, but she could not be bothered right now.

She opened the Regional Channel, where quite a few people were still talking about the incident.

One message quickly caught Cheng Shuili's attention.

【Drunkard】: Haha, I also think this whole thing is a bit ridiculous, making the girl sound like a muscular Barbie. But I am genuinely curious, if this person really exists, which big shot do you guys think she is?

Muscular Barbie?

Cheng Shuili: “……”

She appreciated the recognition of her strength, but she did not like the nickname.

The people on the Regional Channel were also piqued by Drunkard's comment, and the discussion was currently very lively.

【Little Chu】: I feel like it is Silent Fortune. Let's talk about the top three big shots; one is Angry Crow Takes Flight, and the other is Qingshan Trek, both of whom have cursed people on the World Channel. Only Silent Fortune sounds like a girl!

【More Water in Rice】: That is prejudice! That is naked prejudice! I have always believed that both Angry Crow and Qingshan are girls!

【Orange Orange Orange】: The person above knows nothing; they are just guessing blindly.

【No Wrongdoing for Peace】: I also think so. Silent Fortune is the most likely. This name also sounds a bit like a girl's. I have already imagined a gentle, cute, and kind-hearted girl!

【Handsome Handsome Handsome】: I feel like the person above is about to start begging for money in the next sentence. Don't be limited by personal perspectives! Ah, brothers and sisters! Since this discussion is purely hypothetical, why don't we just assume Angry Crow, Qingshan, and Silent Fortune are all girls?

【Laughter is Contagious】: Can we assume they are all guys? I want to win some glory for the boys.

【All Grab From Me】: I can't take it anymore, big brothers and sisters! I think the only point worth discussing about this matter is whether or not hot weapons actually exist in this world! Everyone knows their lethality. We haven't seen any hot weapons yet, let alone bulletproof vests. If what Benben said is true, wouldn't this person be invincible now?

【Number Eight】: Friend, have you considered the possibility that she has already been invincible for a long time? What hot weapons? Those would just be the icing on the cake.

【Popcorn】: I prefer the story of an ordinary person rising to power. I don't think it's those big shots on the leaderboard.

【Drunkard】: I think it must be a big shot from the leaderboard. @Benben, you said that person snapped a bald guy's hand very easily, right? Were her muscle lines visible?

【Benben】: That's too much detail, brother. My heart was about to jump out of my chest from nervousness at that moment, let alone noticing those details! I even looked at her face! I've forgotten everything now.

【Drunkard】: You loser.

【No Wrongdoing for Peace】: You loser.

【Benben】: Stop, stop, stop! You guys still think I'm making this up!

【Dry Pot Pork Tenderloin】: You finally admitted it!

...

Cheng Shuili was a little worried at first, but now she didn't feel anything at all.

This news was as good as nothing. She closed the Regional Channel, only to receive a private message from Qingshan Trek.

【Qingshan Trek】: Sister Cheng Ershui, the person being talked about on the Regional Channel, it wouldn't happen to be you, would it?

Sister Cheng Ershui...

Cheng Shuili almost spat out a mouthful of water. What kind of ghostly nickname was this? She knew Chen Qingshan was trying to get on her good side, but this attempt...

It would have been better not to try!

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: What is the Regional Channel saying?

【Qingshan Trek】: Did you go to the Trading Post this afternoon?

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: No. Also, you can call me by my name. You are much older than me.

【Qingshan Trek】: ...

【Qingshan Trek】: I am actually twenty-eight.

Cheng Shuili didn't believe it, and even if he was twenty-eight, that was still four years older than her!

She closed the private chat with Chen Qingshan and finally had the time to announce the good news about eating watermelon in the small group.

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Eating watermelon tonight.

【New Snow Clearing】: ???

【New Snow Clearing】: What!?

New Snow was practically surfing the net twenty-four hours a day. Whether it was news on the Regional Channel or messages in their small group, New Snow was always the first to see it.

In this survival world, she could be considered a character.

【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: Is that literal? Is it literal!? Boss!!! It better be literal!

【Wan Yi】: Do I get a share too?

【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: A twenty-pound watermelon, five pounds per person.

【New Snow Clearing】: !!!

【New Snow Clearing】: Boss, I am willing to work for you like an ox or a horse for the rest of my life!

【Liang Shanbo vs. Pig】: @New Snow Clearing, you type too fast! Retract that and let me say it!

While the two of them were arguing, Cheng Shuili had already closed the group chat. It wasn't dark yet, so she decided to push forward a little more.

By the time night fell, there were no more accidents today. Cheng Shuili even opened two supply crates, one bronze and one wooden.

Her luck exploded today; the bronze chest contained 24 boxes of Hao Su Su milk, which was likely the standard for one crate.

The wooden supply crate, however, didn't contain anything useful; it was another nest of slimes. Cheng Shuili was very happy to harvest three more globs of slime mucus.

It was just unclear what the purpose of this stuff was.

If only there were some kind of encyclopedia of items.

It would list the purpose, conditions of use, and acquisition methods for everything!

That would be a huge help to Cheng Shuili!

None of the four of them bothered with dinner in the evening; they were all saving their appetites for the watermelon.

Cheng Shuili had taken some vegetables out of the refrigerator in the afternoon and iced the watermelon for the whole afternoon. When she took it out, it felt ice-cold.

With heavy snow falling outside, eating iced watermelon at a time like this was actually quite strange.

But all of them had heating stoves in their vehicles. When they weren't outside the vehicle, they all wore short sleeves, so eating something cold didn't really matter, much like how people in the Northeast eat ice cream in winter.

The heat was turned up too high, so everyone was feeling a bit irritable; eating something cold was actually quite comfortable.

Wan Yi took a knife and sliced the big watermelon into four even pieces. Such a trivial matter was a piece of cake for a top-tier chef like her!

If it hadn't been unnecessary, she could have even made a fruit platter using only the watermelon.

Wan Yi took a photo and sent it to the group to prove that she had indeed divided the watermelon into four portions, but the three people in the group couldn't understand her intention.

The two gluttonous girls thought Wan Yi was teasing them with the photo and were still acting spoiled in the group, blaming Wan Yi.

Cheng Shuili didn't have so many thoughts. She saw it, and that was that. To her, it was just an image Wan Yi had sent.

Cheng Shuili's brain worked very well, but when she was with people she was familiar with, she generally didn't bother using it.

When Wan Yi saw the responses from these people, she knew no one understood what she meant, but instead of feeling the frustration of being misunderstood, she felt a trace of warmth rise from the bottom of her heart.

Yes, just like this.

Arguing and bickering all the way.

Whether it's walking to the end of the road or walking to the end of life, let's just keep living this lively life.
