Free Web NovelChapter 707: Chapter 621: Internal Backstab, The Most Deadly
Pandora’s Box was just sitting there, unadorned and unappealing. But the real allure of opening it had never been its outside.
Everyone knew the oldest temptations were inside, and although it’s just a short, three-second voice clip, no one doubted the damage it could cause.
Should we click on it?
It really felt like once we opened it, it’d be hard to get away unscathed tonight!
To click or not to click?
"If I don’t click, I might feel uncomfortable all night, but if I do, it’ll be uncomfortable all night too!"
"Shameless! Boss Wang, I didn’t expect you to be such a person; you know midnight snacks really pack on the pounds!"
"Looks like we have the option to click or not, but I believe no one can resist such temptation. Let me be the first to take the plunge, brothers, wait for my feedback."
"Farewell, comrade, we will remember your name!"
"We look forward to your genuine feedback, comrade."
Inside, Zhou Ruoqing felt utterly tragic; she knew there was no escaping tonight’s supper. Since things were already like this, she might as well make the most of it.
A fingertip lightly touched the phone screen, transforming the voice message into a ripple pattern, then a sound as crispy as goosebumps started to ring out.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch..."
Straightforward, starting with zero hesitation, simple and brutal; the enticing sound just overwhelms you when clicked open.
"Crunch" was the sound of teeth snapping through the shrimp body, "crunch, crunch, crunch" the sound of teeth touching shrimp shells.
"I can’t believe how crispy it is!"
Zhou Ruoqing gulped hard, feeling her appetite surge like a tide when the crisp sound rang out.
"Go ahead, eat, or else you’ll definitely be hungry tonight."
"Go ahead, eat, such crispiness begs for a substitute at least, to soothe the longing."
"It’s okay if you can’t get Sheltered Harbor fried shrimp, you can always have crispy chicken, and if need be, just hit the restroom afterwards."
"The fat might just decide not to stick to your waist this time, who knows where it’ll end up?"
"Go ahead, eat, it’s not like you’re the only one having it, if everybody indulges together, it’s almost like no one indulged at all!"
"Ahhhhhhh!"
Ruoqing threw her phone and flopped around on the bed in frustration, knowing this would be the outcome, knowing she couldn’t resist, yet she still opened it!
Suddenly remembering there’s a bunch of people online waiting for her feedback, Ruoqing, with a responsible attitude, stopped rolling and grabbed her phone to start replying.
"Scared the hell out of me, thought it would be much more tempting. It’s nothing special, sounds like eating chips. I believe most friends won’t be affected."
At the moment she sent the speech message, Ruoqing decisively opened the delivery app, searching for Sheltered Harbor fried shrimp, and when she couldn’t find it, she settled for searching fried chicken.
But seeing her message, many felt a twinge of disappointment; is it only as intense as chips? Isn’t that unappealing?
"If it’s just that, then I’d be disappointed. Well, if it’s merely chips, it can’t entice me. I’ll click to listen anyway."
"I was quite looking forward to it, but this has lowered my expectations. Still, I’ll give Boss Wang face and click to listen."
"Really? You believed that?"
"Yes, why wouldn’t we? I’ve already listened to it; I think the comrade’s reply was reserved. It’s not like chips—those chips would need to be a bit stale to compare, otherwise it’s even crispier than this."
"Oh? Stale chips can still be called ’crispy’? Let me listen. Hm, I think the comrade above was conservative. My cucumbers are crunchier than this."
"The comrade above is too reserved; it was akin to our A4 paper."
"The above’s A4 paper must’ve been previously soaked, right? At most, it sounded like the buns at home."
?
Faced with one joke better than the last, yet to click heads sprouted a giant question mark.
Did Boss Wang mess up?
Though it felt a bit like ’there’s always someone trying to sabotage me’ vibe, were there really that many saboteurs?
After eliminating all possibilities, the least likely option has to be correct, so did Boss Wang really mess up?
We must check it out then!
Since Boss Wang’s debut, there hadn’t been any mess-ups, so witnessing it happened was historical!
"Ahahaha, witnessing Boss Wang’s historical mess-up, this has to be opened."
"Thanks for the feedback, folks, now I’ll confidently click open."
"I was quite scared initially, now I’m completely reassured, thanks for the brothers’ feedback."
One by one, those initially hesitating weren’t hesitating anymore, afterward, that spellbinding sound began echoing across the nation.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch..."
Soon, every shocked netizen turned into stunned silence.
What happened to the said soggy chips? What happened to soaked A4 paper? What happened to not even crispier than your buns?
I’m utterly deceived by you lot!
Wanting to cry but lacking tears.
Couldn’t believe cautious all night, ended up backstabbed by allies, who could resist such sound and not indulge in midnight snacks?
"Sorry guys, it’s mainly to avoid you starving tonight, blame Boss Wang, we’re all innocent."
"It was mere misstep on my part, blame is rightful at Boss Wang, we’re still close family."
