Chereads / Crazy Inheritor / Chapter 16 - Eh?

Chapter 16 - Eh?

There that he met the gorgeous being that was carefully crafted by the goddess herself. Heaven poured their sweat on this one without a doubt. He saw a pair of navy sneakers coming out of the sports car along with baggy pants that seemed like they came out straight from the '90s. She had a snow-white complexion and the beauty of her goblet-like navel was unmatched. She had vibrant scarlet red hair that was tied to a ponytail. Her cherry-red-lips were desirable, a perfect match for her tiny elf-like nose. She had kohl-black, sliver-of-moon eyebrows. She had Cleopatra eyelashes of a lush, succubus-black over her ungulate-shaped eyes. Every time she blinked her cold stare, his heart was pulled further deep into a zone of drunkenness. Her shoulder was visible from her short black tank top and he could see the red pair of straps of her bra. Her sweat was dripping from her chin and some of them into the jacket that she tied on her waist.

Ruan turned stiff as he saw the woman looked in his direction before she turned away and entered the convenience store. That single split moment made his heart fluttered before he hurriedly went inside his workplace.

He stood at the door before the automatic started to slide out with notification of welcome. He glanced at his left only to see no one behind the cashier. He furrowed his eyebrows (I thought it was supposed to be the manager's shift for the morning till noon?). He glanced around to see that the woman was the only customer inside the current store.

"I thought Luke said that this place is booming with customers, what happened?" muttered Ruan.

He knew his best friend wouldn't lie over something like this, but the missing manager made him thinking. Though he was not the owner of the convenience store, he couldn't have left the job unoccupied.

He immediately entered the locker room for the employees only to see nothing strange. They were all neatly closed and the floor was squeaky clean.

"With this, there is only one room left to check," muttered Ruan before he walked out of the room.

He saw that the woman was still browsing the items before he was smitten once again. However, he quickly shook his head before he saw the only toilet stall inside the store. He gulped his saliva before he approached the door. Every step produced a wild imagination inside his head and each of them was heavy as though he was carrying a weight on his shoes.

As he stood outside the toilet, he put his hand on the doorknob before he took a deep breath and slowly turned it around. He pushed it inward before he saw nothing.

The toilet was clean and there was no trace of something suspicious that his eyes caught. He shook his head before he laughed at himself. He closed the door before he turned around. His eyes were immediately shrunken as his heartbeat rushed.

The beautiful woman was making eye contact with him from a close distance. She was a head taller than Ruan and her eyes were quite lazy despite their beautifulness. He was swallowing his saliva as he unknowingly had no way to take another step back.

The beautiful face was for the enjoyment of his eyes before he noticed that she actually had a golden cross earring on the right her right ear. There was also a hint of three black spots on her left ears.

(Ah, she also had another piercing there) thought Ruan before the woman leaned in.

Her deodorant seeped inside Ruan's nose as his mind wandered about vanilla.

She lifted up her hand and shook the yogurt bottle right in front of his bewildered face.

"Hey, you work here right?"

"Huh..? Uh...y-yeah," nodded Ruan without blinking.

"Alright then, I need to buy this..."

Ruan looked at her without answering before he understood what she meant.

"Ah, right," he tried to change his clothes before he remembered that he was here also as a customer just like her.

He immediately ran behind the counter before a notification was heard coming out from his special phone. He took a peek at it before he read the quest.

Quest: Get her name!!

Rank: B

Reward: 100 LP

His hand shook as he saw the number beside the reward. He was excited with the anticipation of his gambling addiction. Things might change overnight or things might get worse overnight, either way, it was better than a surefire result

He put his phone away as he saw the lady putting her items on the counter. There were a pair of yogurts and a pair of pads for women at that time of the month. She was nonchalant about it as she crossed her arms and looked at the other items like candies and shaving products.

Ruan gulped his saliva before he started scanning the items one by one. He was doing it on purpose to stall time and thinking of an idea of how to ask her name.

"Uh, miss, the total will be 45 Rial," said Ruan.

The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows before she nodded and reached out for her pocket. The front one had nothing, the next one also had nothing, she reached out her back pocket but there was also nothing. She took off the jacket from her waist and reached out for the pockets. There was crumbly paper money that looked quite devastated before she put it down the counter.

Ruan had his lips twitched before he started to count the money. He put the input in before the receipt was printed from the printer. He let out a sigh before he ripped the note, and give her the change.

"Thank you! Please come again!" said Ruan with a smile. (How pathetic) as he gave her the plastic bag.

The woman nodded before she walked away.

He buried his fingers inside his palm as he gritted his teeth before his dad's advice echoed in his mind (The fisherman that fish will get the fish, or something like that).

"Miss!" shouted Ruan before she halted her steps in fright as she turned around.

"Do you want some nut?"

"Eh?"
