Chapter 322: Chapter 322: The Legendary Noodles for 1888 Yuan a Bowl Chapter 322: Chapter 322: The Legendary Noodles for 1888 Yuan a Bowl Scarlett Jennings officially started her college life. Apart from Stella Gibson, Ashton Todd also inexplicably started hanging out with them, like right now. Just after the early class ended, Ashton Todd whipped up with two big bags of takeout, braving the resentful gazes of the cafeteria chefs, and routinely handed out the orders to the freshmen waiting in the cafeteria, collecting their money. After settling everyone, he finally approached the two with his now mostly deflated takeout bags. Three breakfast orders, set out one by one. “Eat it while it’s hot, this one has the extra ingredients your family specified for you.” As Ashton Todd spoke, he pushed a special food container towards Scarlett Jennings. Scarlett Jennings opened the container, only to see a bowl of rice noodles topped with a generous assortment of seafood. “Wow...” Stella Gibson and Ashton Todd couldn’t help but gulp down their saliva at the sight of the heaping half-bowl of seafood. Ashton Todd’s takeout was brought from down the mountain. Since the food street was not fully built yet, Donovan Jennings was worried that Scarlett Jennings wouldn’t be able to eat properly during this period, so he dispatched ten food trucks to be stationed down the mountain, with fresh ingredients delivered daily. Ashton Todd was the first to spot the “business opportunity” and took less than a week to take over the food delivery errands in Newlife Court, and even started making connections with senior students further up the mountain’s slope. The business was growing rapidly. “Do rich families’ kids always eat this well?” Unable to contain himself, Ashton Todd let out an exclamation of someone unfamiliar with high living. Seriously, Stella Gibson, with her baby-faced look, said, “No, kids from wealthy families usually eat much better than you can imagine.” As she spoke, her chopsticks were eagerly ready to move, “Scarlett doesn’t eat much; how about I help you with some of it?” Hearing this, Ashton Todd hurriedly opened his own disposable meal container, “As a business partner and competitor of Scarlett Jennings, it’s my duty to help her bear more of the burden!... I want that big shrimp, I’ve never tried this kind before.” Scarlett Jennings was already used to their antics, first setting terms with Stella Gibson, “Remember to bring me that Corpse Soil you mentioned last time.” Stella Gibson nodded vigorously, “Bring, bring, bring.” Scarlett Jennings then turned to Ashton Todd, “One big shrimp for three days’ worth of delivery fees.” Ashton Todd immediately withdrew his chopsticks, speaking with righteous indignation, “My delivery fee starts at fifty per trip!” Three meals a day, that’s one hundred and fifty a day. Four hundred and fifty for three days! What kind of shrimp costs four hundred and fifty each?! He’d rather not eat it at all!! Scarlett Jennings lightheartedly responded, “Then two shrimps.” Ashton Todd frantically haggled, “Three big shrimp and two crab legs for one day’s delivery fee!” Scarlett Jennings simply pulled her meal container back to herself, deciding to eat alone. Seeing her preparing to dig in, Ashton Todd hastily said, “One big shrimp and one crab leg for one day’s delivery fee.” Fearing she might refuse, he began to sound pitiful, “It’s been a year since I had seafood; back in Myan North, they only gave me steamed buns for half a month! Please save a child.” Scarlett Jennings twitched her mouth, at a loss for words at Ashton Todd’s plea. In the end, she still lost a big shrimp and a crab leg to him. Ashton Todd ate with great satisfaction and praised the food truck chef’s skills as top-notch. Stella Gibson chimed in too, “So this is the legendary 1888-yuan bowl of noodles.” Scarlett Jennings didn’t say a word; she felt a bit overstuffed. Once again, leaving under the resentful gaze of the cafeteria chef, on her way to the classroom, Scarlett Jennings’ little paperman of Golden Light somehow hoisted a flower bigger than itself and huffed and puffed its way to Scarlett to present its treasure. Stella Gibson watched the little paperman cradled in Scarlett’s palm and couldn’t help but click her tongue, “The way you train your Spiritual Power is way too hardcore.” Because her Golden Light little paperman had become refined, Scarlett unavoidably aroused suspicion among teachers and students. She claimed that the little paperman was sustained by her own Spiritual Power and that letting it move freely helped her to push the limits of her Spiritual Power and gain more precise control over it. Who knows how the word spread, but now in the two classes of Newlife Court, any student specializing in Talismanic cultivation always keeps a little paperman with them. Indeed, as soon as the three of them entered the classroom, there were already several students attempting to animate their own little papermen. So it goes without saying, no matter what the circle, wherever there are people, there are those who hustle relentlessly. ... Scarlett’s school life started to follow a regular pattern, while on the other hand, various major schools also began their opening week one week ago. Azura Loomis and Adam Jennings both went to Sea University. Adam was admitted on his own merit, while Azura got in directly with the help of Fortune. But being able to secure a spot through Fortune is also seen as a form of merit in the eyes of ordinary people, so no one questioned Azura’s academic abilities. Plus, with her gentle and delicate beauty, and her evidently fine taste in food and clothing, it only took her a week to be acclaimed as the new goddess of Sea University. Just like now, Azura, dressed in a pure white outfit, carrying the limited edition bag that Mrs. Jennings had given her, walked gracefully on the campus path, instantly attracting many envious and admiring gazes. While she heard the whispered discussions of people nearby, the system’s voice echoed in her mind. [No new Fortune targets detected.] [No new Fortune targets detected...] [Goodwill Value with target Nicholas Woods increased by +1, current Goodwill Value 57, approaching the passing mark. Host, please seize the opportunity and continue the effort.] Nicholas Woods, one of Azura’s new conquest targets after enrolling, was the president of the student council, his family is involved in politics, and he was born with the family’s Fortune, making him one of Azura’s primary targets after starting school. Beyond him, under the system’s detection, Azura had locked in several targets with notable family backgrounds and Fortune, because earlier on she had withdrawn Chase Jennings’ Fortune, allowing the system to convert it into her own personal charm. This personal charm meant her targets felt an immediate goodwill upon first meeting her, which was a key reason she could gain such Goodwill Value in such a short time. The downside was that the originally withdrawn Fortune was massively exhausting. “I’ve used up too much Fortune this week; I need to go back to the Jennings Family to replenish. As for Nicholas Woods, let him hang for a bit.” Azura wasn’t the least bit worried about losing this conquest target; she had that confidence. But before she could cultivate these people to a level where she could withdraw their Fortune, she still needed to rely on the Jennings Family. Approaching the school gate, she saw Adam’s sports car parked ahead of time outside. Azura quickened her pace and, smiling, sat down in the passenger seat. This sports car was a gift from Uncle Henry to Adam for starting school. It had only been a week since Adam got his hands on it, and he was still excited about it and didn’t mind playing the chauffeur to take Azura home. The initial choice of Sea University was made for its proximity to home; it had been agreed upon that they would visit home once a week. On the way home, Azura pondered to herself. Last week Chase had already been reassigned by Luca Jennings to another company for training; he was now a third in command without decision-making authority. There was also no surplus Fortune on Chase that she could withdraw. Goodwill Value with Adam had fallen to 73, limiting the amount of Fortune that could be withdrawn. As for Lucas, she had already given up on that target. Mrs. Jennings had suffered a severe illness last time after withdrawing her Fortune and was only just starting to recover; going after her again would easily raise suspicions. Those remaining... with enough Goodwill Value to withdraw Fortune. The second aunt by marriage, Odessa. She was the one to choose.
