Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 234 Trying to renege on the debt?

"Oh?" Su Jie glanced at him. "What makes you so sure?"

"You can tell just by looking at their physiques!" the PE student laughed.

"He's very strong, and he must work out a lot, but he has a huge frame, a bulky build, and a high body fat percentage... I estimate he weighs at least 100 kilograms, maybe even 120! I'm about the same height as him, but I only weigh 80 kilograms, a difference of 60 or 70 kilograms. And I'm a sprinter, how could he possibly jump faster than me?"

"I reckon he'll have a hard time even getting a 30% discount!"

"Uh..." Su Jie was speechless. Although she didn't want to admit it, what he said did make sense... But she snorted, suddenly stepped forward, and shouted loudly:

"Zhang Lang, keep going! We believe in you!"

With her taking the lead, Chen Lin, Cheng Jun, and others also began to cheer him on.

Zhang Lang raised his hand to make a shushing gesture, then imitated what others had done before, swinging his arms back and forth, and then suddenly exerted force and jumped up!

"So high..."

This was the first impression of the physical education students present. This guy was more like he was doing a high jump than a long jump. While it wasn't outrageous, and the average person wouldn't see anything wrong with it, as track and field athletes, they could tell at a glance that the trajectory of the jump was not conducive to a long jump. He was already heavy, and he was using his strength in the wrong place. With that kind of jump, it was doubtful he could even manage a 20% jump, let alone a 70% one-way jump!

But what happened next was beyond their expectations!

This seemingly robust, or rather clumsy, big guy actually drew a high parabola and landed steadily outside the free order line!

The entire audience was astonished by this sight!

"That's impossible!"

The students from the sports academy stared in astonishment. Cheng Jun clenched his fists and almost shouted out loud. Su Jie was also surprised and delighted, and she found Zhang Lang much more agreeable!

The most miserable person is the hot pot restaurant manager!

He originally thought that even with a 30% discount, such a large order would still be worthwhile. But who would have thought that this guy would actually get a free order?! There aren't many people in the sports academy who could get a free order, especially when they're already full and satisfied...

"Wow!"

The girls cheered, and the onlookers exclaimed in admiration. Zhang Lang smiled, shrugged at the dumbfounded shop manager, and then led everyone away.

Just then, the store manager suddenly stopped them, led them to the counter, and whispered, "I'm so sorry, but there's a limit to how much you can get for free here, up to three thousand. You'll still have to pay for the rest..."

Zhang Lang was taken aback: "This rule isn't in the rules for the long jump at the entrance?"

"It's not explicitly stated, but it's the store's policy!"

The manager smiled, his cheeks twitching:

"And the rules state that the merchant reserves the right to final interpretation of this promotion... Think about it, if we offered free meals no matter how much people ordered, all those athletes from the sports academy would come to do long jump every day, and this little shop would go out of business. I'm just an employee, and I only get a small performance bonus each month. If we lose this much revenue, my bonus for the month will be completely deducted..."

Several college students were moved by his pitiful story, but Zhang Lang remained unmoved, saying, "That's none of my business. You set the rules, so you have to follow them! If you want to change them, write them in the rules next time!"

"Are you trying to dine and dash?"

Seeing that the soft approach wasn't working, the manager immediately hardened his tone:

"I'm being lenient with you. If the police are called, they'll come after your school. Eating and dashing is the same as theft, and it'll be recorded in your file!"

It's said that doing business in university towns is easy, not only because of the large foot traffic, but also because university students have little social experience and are more easily fooled.

Usually, you either have to cry poor and act pitiful, and these students will soften their hearts, or you have to be firm, and the students will be scared and back down... It always works!

Sure enough, upon hearing this, several students showed fear on their faces...

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lang stepped forward, approaching the short shopkeeper, and said condescendingly:

"I don't know what the law says, but I at least know that you can't cheat your customers in business! If you want to report this to the authorities, I'll keep the promotional posters at your door as evidence!"

"You..." The manager was a little intimidated by the burly man who was a head taller than him approaching. Several students from the sports academy nearby also gathered around. The sprinter who was doing the long jump approached Su Jie and asked, "What happened? Do you need help?"

Su Jie glanced at Zhang Lang, then at the blustering but cowardly shop manager, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "No need, I have a way!"

"You're from the sports academy, right?"

The store manager guessed based on Zhang Lang's physique:

"Don't think I'm intimidated just because you're big. If you dare to lay a hand on me here, your athletic careers are over!"

Zhang Lang sneered, "Sorry, I guessed wrong..."

The two were at an impasse when suddenly a pretty girl took out her phone and took a selfie at the counter: "Look closely, everyone! This is the Southern Hot Pot restaurant in Wanlong Plaza near the university town. They used to say if you jumped long jump, you'd get a free meal, but now they've changed their minds. I've already been ripped off for several thousand yuan! Everyone, please be careful!"

"What are you recording!" The store manager immediately sensed something was wrong, but then he saw that the girl had saved the video and then showed it to him on her phone.

This is an app called Kuaiyin, currently the most popular short video platform. This pretty girl happens to be a minor internet celebrity on the Kuaiyin platform, with over 100,000 followers. The video she just recorded is already stored in the cloud, and she can upload it with just one click!

At this moment, Su Jie walked over and said, "Old manager, if my friend just clicks his finger, this video will be seen by tens of thousands of people within hours! How many of them do you think will be students from the surrounding area? Could it be that some of the leaders from your Southern Hot Pot headquarters are also among them?"

Looking at the girl's ambiguous smile, coupled with the towering Zhang Lang beside her, and the several tall and burly sports students surrounding them, the shop manager swallowed hard...

In the end, Zhang Lang successfully got the meal for free, and the group left the hot pot restaurant.

"I didn't realize you were so quiet while eating, but you're quite tough when it comes to trouble!"

Su Jie patted Zhang Lang on the shoulder and teased, "You're quite manly, it suits your appearance perfectly!"

Zhang Lang looked at the capable young woman and modestly replied, "It's mainly thanks to your quick wit!"

The other girls were also discussing what had just happened, as if they had experienced something major. The boys from the Mechanical Engineering Department also joined in the discussion, complaining about how the hot pot restaurant manager was heartless. They finally found common ground.

At this moment, the sprinter walked over, glanced at Zhang Lang, and asked Su Jie with a smile, "Is this your friend?"
