"Going to the bathroom... how come I can't even see a shadow now?"
Twenty minutes later, Gu Shen realized something was wrong.
He made a trip to the bathroom and confirmed that Song Ci had fled after peeing; it was empty.
"That damn turtle without any honor, bullying me because I am an out-of-towner?"
Gu Shen was so annoyed his teeth itched, he went back to the noodle shop to pay the bill, and saw the skinny, tall owner wearing a towel around his neck, sitting on a wooden stool, smiling and gazing into the distance... Gu Shen then realized... this owner had been maintaining this posture for quite a while.
"Boss, time to settle the bill."
The skinny tall owner heard the sound, but seemed to ignore it, only slowly turning his head toward Gu Shen with a nod and a smile.
This boss... seems... not very bright?
