Chapter 155: Chapter 155: She Just Wants to Give Everyone a Home

The cheers from the Human Clan’s side were so loud that the atmosphere on the Sea Clan’s side grew a little downcast.

"Does it have to be this way?"

"I don’t want to do this."

Seeing that the Sea Clan was about to lose the competition, Dragon Ball whispered words only she could hear.

A struggle was visible in her eyes.

Moisture welled up, making her look incredibly fragile.

’Don’t blame me.’

As if having made up her mind, Dragon Ball reached for her sash and began to disrobe.

Lu Wu: ?

’What is she doing?’

’Seduction is one thing, but actually taking her clothes off is taking it way too far.’

"Don’t—"

Before Lu Wu could get the word of protest out, Dragon Ball’s robes slid to the ground.

But what appeared before the crowd wasn’t a graceful body, but a round, plump, and tender-pink octopus about three meters tall.

"WHIMPER WHIMPER WHIMPER!"

’Don’t look at me, you’re making me blush.’

Conveying this message, Dragon Ball opened her mouth and poured a bowl of snail noodles straight down her gullet.

Dragon Ball’s transformation drew quite a few stares, distracting even Huohuo.

Dragon Ball seized the opportunity to overtake Huohuo.

Victory belongs to the pink octopus!

Waving her tentacles, Dragon Ball stretched her enormous body, surprised not to hear any screams of terror from the humans.

"So pink! A sweeter pink than my first love."

"It’s a little big, but so cute."

"I want to touch it."

The Human Clan was taking Dragon Ball’s true form surprisingly well.

A few mischievous children snuck over, grabbing one of Dragon Ball’s tentacles and stroking it.

So soft and smooth.

"CHOMP!"

’I’ll bite!’

A brat is called a brat for a reason—they’ll go wild and cause a scene anytime, anywhere.

The shy Dragon Ball was already struggling to endure the ticklishness of her tentacle, but then the brat bit her. Unable to hold back, Dragon Ball’s tentacle shot up, and the child went flying.

"Ahhh..."

A bloodcurdling scream drifted through the air.

Dragon Ball blinked her huge eyes and looked toward the brat’s parents, only to see them pushing their other child forward.

"Your Highness, please send him to keep his brother company."

’He must give both brothers the same childhood experience.’

"I declare that the final winner of this year’s spicy eating contest is... Long Zhang."

Boss Lu’s voice tore some people’s gazes away from Dragon Ball. They turned to see Lu Wu standing beside Long Zhang, raising his hand and announcing the honor.

"How could this be?"

Having gone so far as to reveal her true form to win, Dragon Ball couldn’t understand how she had lost.

Long Zhang wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, then stood and bowed.

While Dragon Ball was being harassed by the children, Long Zhang had surpassed the other three contestants to claim the final victory.

"Thank you all for your generous support, which allowed me to achieve this victory. I, Long Zhang, will certainly not let you down. I will be sure to share Boss Lu’s private kitchen creations so that everyone can enjoy them with me."

Those words were a real gut punch.

A crowd of people clutched their chests, their faces showing they’d been shot through the heart.

Huohuo, especially, hung its head.

’The bird lost. This loss would last a lifetime.’

Long Zhang, who had patiently and successfully seized his opportunity, closed his eyes slightly, preparing to receive his cheers.

"One, two..."

He counted silently in his mind, waiting for the uproar.

He waited, and waited.

The noise around him began to fade.

Puzzled, Long Zhang opened his eyes, only to find the space before him completely empty.

???

’Seriously? How can people be like this?’

’I won! Why is no one clapping for me?’

Not only the Human Clan, but even the Sea Clan was ignoring their own Prince’s victory.

Long Zhang let his raised hand fall heavily.

"Line up, line up! Don’t rush, there’s enough for everyone!"

Over by the stall, Qin Zhan was already shouting for the customers to form a line.

The competition was over, so who cared about first or second place? They had to hurry up and get in line to buy Boss Lu’s snail noodles!

The champion of the hour, met with total indifference.

Long Zhang felt this championship title was a complete sham.

"Then, big brother, will you give the chance to me, please?"

Dragon Ball was still in her octopus form, a few tentacles wrapped around Long Zhang as she whined in a soft, sweet voice.

"I’m sorry, little sister."

Long Zhang said apologetically.

"Alright then, I won’t make things difficult for you, brother."

Dragon Ball obediently unwrapped herself from Long Zhang. As he too walked toward the line, a sinister smile spread across her cute octopus face.

’Heh heh... Drugging successful!’

’Divine Doctor Jiang did say that the time it takes for the drug to take effect can be controlled by the dosage.’

’Brother, I’m sorry.’

’If your little sister can’t have Boss Lu, then you can forget about it too.’

’For my happiness, you’ll just have to be the one to suffer this time, brother.’

"What are you looking at?"

Qin Zhan nudged Jiang Yunhe. The latter wore the wicked smile of a successful plotter, making Qin Zhan feel like the kid was up to no good.

"Nothing."

Jiang Yunhe gave a gentle smile.

’The competition might have a winner and a loser, but there will be no one who truly benefits.’

’This is the counterattack from someone who can’t handle spicy food.’

The scent of Crab Burgers once again wafted over the beach. On the last day of her stall, the customers weren’t about to let Lu Wu go easily.

Purchase limits didn’t matter; they could just find scalpers!

And if the scalpers betrayed them and refused to hand over the food, that didn’t matter either. They still had their fists.

Somewhere on the beach, a treacherous scalper was experiencing a fierce storm.

Fists the size of sandbags rained down. After a flurry of CRACKS and THWACKS, the scalper, now black and blue, handed over the delicious little burgers.

WAHHHH.

"Boss Lu, I want two orders of snail noodles!"

"I want two burgers!"

"All you picky eaters, move aside! Let me through, I want the combo meal!"

The customers shouted, scrambling over one another. Lu Wu hadn’t stopped for a moment since she started selling.

It was busy, but fulfilling.

Many customers shared live footage of the scene on One World Communication.

As the sun began to set, Lu Wu’s prepared ingredients started to run low.

One particular customer, who had just stepped into the bounds of Yuanhai City, saw the live updates on One World Communication and let out a great shout.

"NOOOO!"

The cry carried for a thousand li, but it couldn’t reach Lu Wu’s heart.

After making the last little burger, Lu Wu waved her hand. "All sold out! The people in the back don’t need to wait anymore."

The stall was now empty of all ingredients, with only tools remaining.

’These animals didn’t even spare the chili powder.’

The customers had even invented the explosive combination of dipping Crab Burgers in chili powder.

"Once upon a time, there was a great thief with the surname Lu. She stole people’s hearts but took no responsibility, turning around and leaving a trail of romantic debts in her wake."

"Boss Lu, have you heard this story about the heart-stealing thief?"

The customers’ resentful vibes began to assail Lu Wu. As she was cleaning up the stall, she glanced at the storyteller’s face and shook her head decisively.

"Never heard of it."

"But I think this thief must have had her reasons."

"She did nothing wrong."

"She just wanted to give everyone a home."

"Look, an airplane!"

Lu Wu suddenly pointed in one direction and yelled in feigned amazement. The customers instinctively looked over, only to see a clear blue sky, empty as could be.

When they turned back, Lu Wu was gone.

The customers were furious.

"You’ve got some nerve, Boss Lu! Eating your fill and then skipping out! I’ll draw a little circle to ’bless’ you."

Lu Wu mentally acknowledged she had received that "blessing."

She concealed her presence, tiptoeing past the numerous customers.

’She didn’t dare tune into the "Domineering Customers’ Captive Love" channel.’
