Finally, she said pointedly to Sang Mo and Hu Yan, "You two better hold these tight. We wouldn't want you to drop them and have *someone* say I didn't pay."
Seeing the payment notification, the Sub-female's smile became genuine. "This female has indeed paid. I can vouch for her."
But Sang Mo, who suddenly had his arms filled, saw his expression darken in an instant. A flash of killing intent flickered in his dark eyes.
When Hu Yan heard Bai Zhi's words, the suspicion in his eyes vanished. 'This woman really hasn't changed a bit,' he thought. 'Still so vulgar. It's repulsive to any beastman.'
However, Yang Shanshan's face turned livid. It wasn't just because of Bai Zhi's words, but also because of the shop assistant's sudden change in attitude. She was so furious that she clenched her fists too tightly, breaking the nails she had just gotten done a few days ago.
At that moment, the gazes of Yang Shanshan's Beast Husbands all fell on Hu Yan and Sang Mo, who were standing not far behind her.
Although Yang Shanshan treated them reasonably well on a daily basis, it was impossible for her to buy them so many clothes at once.
Even though they knew of the hardships Hu Yan and Sang Mo usually endured, at this moment, looking at all those clothes, a flash of envy still appeared in their eyes.
Yang Shanshan, her expression ugly, turned her head and saw the envious looks on her Beast Husbands' faces. Her anger flared, and she directed all of it at them. "What is there to be envious of?! Do I not give you enough clothes to wear?!"
One of her Beast Husbands said meekly, "We were just looking..."
Yang Shanshan shot a sharp glare at the Beast Husband who had spoken, and he immediately fell silent.
Seeing this, Bai Zhi couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Hearing her laughter, a furious Yang Shanshan glared at her. "Bai Zhi, don't get cocky!"
Bai Zhi gave a playful wink, unable to hide the grin on her face. "Hmm, well, I still need to buy them accessories. If you're short on cash, I could reluctantly give you a set, too."
Then, she walked straight to the shop across the way.
Because she had wasted some time on Yang Shanshan, Bai Zhi went on an even faster shopping spree inside.
She directly told the assistant to bring out all of their most expensive accessories.
They had just seen what happened in the shop opposite them, so they immediately went and brought out seven or eight different accessories.
Seeing Bai Zhi turn around and start another shopping spree in the opposite store, Yang Shanshan used her Light Computer to tell Qin Yue what was happening.
The assistant was just about to start introducing them when Bai Zhi had already picked out five suitable accessories for her five Beast Husbands. "Wrap these five up," she said.
Seeing this, the assistant beamed. "That will be 100,000 in total."
Bai Zhi quickly swiped her card. While the payment was processing, other assistants had already begun deftly bagging the accessories for her.
As she walked out with her bags, she happened to see Yang Shanshan emerging from the clothing store with an ugly expression. The few Beast Husbands trailing behind her also looked miserable. Clearly, they had been scolded after Bai Zhi left.
Bai Zhi's eyebrows rose. "Oh, you're still here. So sorry, but I'm off to the next store. Can't stay and chat."
Hearing her almost-humiliating words, Yang Shanshan's face twisted with rage.
But before she could say anything, she realized Bai Zhi was already gone.
Bai Zhi quickly found a Light Computer store, walked in, and said to the sub-beastman at the counter, "Excuse me, I need six Light Computers."
The system reminded her: [You only have five Beast Husbands.]
Bai Zhi said confidently, "Haven't you heard of having a spare? If one of theirs breaks, we can use it as an emergency replacement."
The system seemed to be convinced by her words and said no more.
The sub-beastman took out six Light Computers and handed them over. "That will be 460,000 Star Coins in total."
Bai Zhi quickly swiped her card. She had originally intended to give the five Light Computers to Sang Mo as well, but seeing his sullen face, she changed direction and shoved them all into Hu Yan's arms instead. "You two can replace your old Light Computers. You hold on to the rest for now and give them to the others later."
She put the other one in her bag.
Then, she quickly moved on to the next store.
It wasn't just Hu Yan and Sang Mo who were injured; Lang Qiu and the others were too. Some of their old, long-standing wounds had even left behind chronic ailments.
So, Bai Zhi went to the largest medicine shop.
She purchased Rapid Recovery Medicine, Hemostatic Medicine, and short-term superpower enhancement medicine. Just those few bottles of medicine cost 200,000 Star Coins!
Hearing the price, Bai Zhi couldn't help but be astonished. 'The medicine business really is a ridiculously profitable industry!'
[Time remaining: 2 minutes 54 seconds.]
When Bai Zhi heard the system's reminder, her eyes darted around frantically. Finally, she spotted a restaurant not far ahead and quickly ran over.
Bai Zhi went straight to the front desk and said urgently, "Give me a few of your signature dishes for three people, with a budget of 20,000."
After saying that, she deliberately added, "The total can be over 20,000, but it can't be less."
The sub-beastman at the checkout counter was about to remind Bai Zhi that they normally took orders directly at the tables, but seeing how rushed she was, he placed a few orders for her instead.
Bai Zhi watched as the virtual screen in front of her began to count down: [00:00:23]
The sub-beastman at the counter said, "Hello, the total is 21,580 Star Coins."
Bai Zhi quickly handed over her card, and with just a few seconds to spare, the payment went through successfully.
[Congratulations, Host, the novice mission is complete. The relevant documents for a Federation mansion worth ten million Star Coins have been sent to the Host's Light Computer. 1,000,000.00 Star Coins have been successfully transferred. Please check your account.]
