Chapter 163 Selling Ice Cream with the Mute Girl
The mute girl waved her hand to indicate that it was okay.
Then he used sign language to ask: "What do you do?"
"As for me, I'm a patrolman. Do you believe it?" Zhang Haoran said with a smile.
The mute girl tilted her head and looked at Zhang Haoran, as if she was trying to fit him with the image of a patrolman, but no matter how she looked at it, she didn't think they looked alike, so she shook her head at him.
"Haha, I knew you didn't believe it. So in your impression, are the police good guys or bad guys?" Zhang Haoran said.
"It depends on the person. There are good people and bad people everywhere, but I firmly believe that no matter what you do, you are a good person." The mute girl gestured and smiled peacefully.
The breeze blew through her hair, and her smile looked so sweet. Zhang Haoran admitted that he was really moved.
But he would not go to the point of being determined to get her, just like the boy that the mute girl always has in her heart, that is Axing.
He was not sure whether he could erase Ah Xing's position in her heart by doing his best to be good to her.
No matter what, things have to be done step by step. Besides, the task given by the system is to make her happy, not to force himself to get her.
"By the way, isn't the ice cream you sell a little too cheap? And your location isn't very good either. If you trust me, how about I take you to a place?" Zhang Haoran said.
The mute girl blinked a few times in confusion, looking a little hesitant.
"What? Are you afraid that I'm a bad guy now? You were laughing so happily just now." Zhang Haoran said with a smile.
The mute girl rolled her eyes and said in sign language, "No, I was thinking about the place you mentioned where I can sell ice cream better."
"You'll know if you follow me." Zhang Haoran said as he stood up, put the bench he was sitting on back to its original place, and pushed the cart.
The mute girl signed quickly: "Let me do it."
Zhang Haoran shook his head: "Hey, don't be so polite, just follow me. It's not far anyway. Let's go, it's almost time." As he said that, he quickened his pace.
The mute girl had no choice but to follow.
After about ten minutes, they arrived at the place. The mute girl looked up at the words above: Huiren Primary School.
Zhang Haoran parked the cart to the side of the door and looked at the time. It was almost noon and time for the students to go home from school.
The mute girl was still standing there at a loss. Zhang Haoran smiled and said, "You'd better get ready quickly, otherwise you will be too busy later."
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I can only sell a few every day." The mute girl was obviously a little unconvinced, but she still started to fill the cone.
Zhang Haoran took a look and saw that there were three flavors: strawberry, chocolate, and original cream flavor.
"Don't be unconvinced by this. Just watch it later." Zhang Haoran said with a smile.
"Dingling Bell Bell ..."
A moment later as the bell rang, a group of enthusiastic students ran out.
Zhang Haoran seemed to see his past self. When he heard the bell for the end of get out of class, he picked up his schoolbag and ran out.
"Hey! Come and have a look. Delicious ice cream, cold and delicious, with strawberry and chocolate flavors..."
"Ice cream seller, give me one strawberry and one chocolate!"
"I want one too, give me a creamy one!"
"I want me too!"
"Okay! Thirty cents for one, fifty cents for two. Here, little friend, I'll charge you fifty cents for the two you want." Zhang Haoran shamelessly used the tricks he learned in later life.
"Is that so? Then I want two too!"
"I want two too..."
The mute girl next to her was stunned at first. She never thought that ice cream was so popular among children.
But then I thought about how Zhang Haoran had raised the price of ice cream by another five cents, and I couldn't help but look at him.
"Okay, don't look at me, just give it to the child quickly." Zhang Haoran said with a smile.
Seeing so many children gathering around her, the mute girl quickly started to get busy.
In less than half an hour, all the ice cream on the mute girl's stall was sold out. The children who didn't get any had to leave disappointed. Before leaving, she asked them to come back tomorrow.
The mute girl counted the money she had earned. Not only did she sell a lot, but she even made five dollars more after deducting the cost. She had never made so much money in a day before.
"What do you think? I told you that I would definitely help you, but you still didn't believe me." Zhang Haoran casually wiped the sweat beads on the mute girl's temples with a tissue.
The mute girl finally woke up from her trance and dodged hurriedly, feeling a little unnatural.
Zhang Haoran also knew that he was a little abrupt, so he pretended not to care and said, "Let's go, it's already past noon, let's find a place to eat, aren't you hungry?"
"Okay! But I have to treat you!" said the mute girl with a firm look in her eyes.
"Okay, it's up to you. If you want to treat, then go ahead. What shall we eat?" Zhang Haoran did not refuse.
Then the two came to a roadside stall. Zhang Haoran watched the stall owner busy at work, serving bowls of wonton noodles. There was a sign next to it that said 50 cents a bowl. Then he looked at the mute girl.
The mute girl signed in a somewhat embarrassed manner: "Although this is a roadside stall, the wonton noodles here are really delicious. I usually come here."
"Well, it's okay. I'm not picky. Since you come here often to eat, the food must taste good. Let's go and find a place to sit." Zhang Haoran said casually.
"Boss! Two big bowls of wonton noodles! Put more coriander!" Zhang Haoran thinks that those who don't eat coriander are pagans and should be burned at the stake. (I'm just kidding here, please don't mind. *^O^*)
"Oh, by the way, sorry I forgot to ask you if you eat coriander." Zhang Haoran looked at the mute girl and said.
"I like it too. It tastes better with coriander." The mute girl gestured with a smile.
"Well, that's good, otherwise I will send you to the stake!" Zhang Haoran glared and said viciously.
The mute girl burst out laughing.
Soon, the noodles were served. Zhang Haoran took a bite and found them tasted pretty good.
But then again, for a mute girl like her who lives alone and relies on the little money she earns from selling ice cream every day, being able to eat a bowl of wonton noodles from time to time is already an improvement in her life.
"By the way, do you still want to come out and sell ice cream in the afternoon?" Zhang Haoran chatted.
"I've only prepared so many materials today. Usually I can't sell them all, so I didn't prepare any. I'll go get the materials in the afternoon and make a little more. I'll sell them tomorrow?"
"Well, okay, I'll come see you tomorrow. Let's eat first."
The mute girl paused for a moment when she heard this, and wanted to say something, but did nothing and lowered her head to eat again.
After dinner, Zhang Haoran didn't rush to pay the bill with her.
The mute girl was very happy about this.
