Rules of the Unusual: My Yandere Husband Pretends to Be Innocent Online

"Qin Bufei, you don't seem afraid of these things at all..."

"Are you scared?" Qin Bufei tilted his head to look at Xia Xiaoqin and stuck out his tongue.

"If needed, I can show my fear at any time, sister."

"Wow~ How scary~"

Xia Xiaoqin remained silent.

She recalled the image of the boy picking up the eyeball.

There's really nothing to be afraid of.

Together with Qin Bufei, Xia Xiaoqin headed towards Zero Mall and successfully bought the antidote at a shop and took it.

"Hey, did you hear? That convenience store in the mall laid off six more sales clerks today and moved them to the third floor!"

Are you sure?

"Of course, that convenience store is hiring again, but who would dare to go there?"

Xia Xiaoqin listened to the chatter of the two sales clerks, and another idea came to her mind. The moment she looked at Qin Bufei, their eyes met.

"Beautiful ladies, being a sales clerk must be very hard work."

Qin Bufei understood immediately and struck up a conversation with the two sales clerks who were chatting idly.

Before long, Qin Bufei, who was born with a handsome appearance, figured out how the sales clerk was interviewed.

"Sister, the interview for a sales clerk position isn't that demanding. As long as you can move around, that's fine. Besides, that convenience store is really short-staffed. Right now, it's like anyone who goes can get the job."

After saying that, Qin Bufei handed the drink in his hand to Xia Xiaoqin with a grin.

"Is this drinkable?"

Xia Xiaoqin stared indifferently at the red drink in her hand, raising an eyebrow.

"It's drinkable, it's watermelon juice. The two saleswomen gave it to me just now. The second floor of this mall is a big restaurant, they sell all kinds of things."

Qin Bufei spoke indistinctly, biting on a straw.

Seeing Xia Xiaoqin's expressionless face as she struggled with the watermelon juice, the boy chuckled.

"Sister, you're so cute. Don't worry, it's really watermelon juice."

After saying that, Xia Xiaoqin stood up and walked quickly toward the convenience store that the salesperson had mentioned.

[Urgent Hiring]

[Big-Eyed Monster Convenience Store Urgently Needs 8 Salespersons]

Salary: Negotiable

[Interview Requirements: No other qualifications required]

The convenience store in front of me is filled with eyeballs everywhere.

When someone enters the shop, their eyes will follow them.

Xia Xiaoqin stared at the signboard with its white lettering and black ink still dripping down the paper, then glanced at Qin Bufei not far away.

"Stop fooling around, come here right now."

Qin Bufei shrugged and then walked over at a leisurely pace.

The two of them immediately took off their current business attire and entered the store.

"An interview? Another one running around naked. Go squat over there."

As soon as they entered, before they could even speak, the cashier at the checkout gestured for Xia Xiaoqin and her companion to squat down by the sales shelf.

"We're all here for a job interview, why don't we say hello to each other?"

After a brief silence, four men and two women, also shirtless and wearing only close-fitting clothes, slowly emerged from behind the sales shelves.

"Hello handsome guys and beautiful girls, we are also players in this round of the game, and we just arrived here 10 minutes ago."

The woman with a good figure and neat short hair spoke first.

"Since we're all here to apply for jobs at this convenience store, why don't we all relax a bit?"

Xia Xiaoqin didn't speak. He looked everyone up and down with a calm expression.

Of the four men and two women, four of them appeared relaxed and showed no signs of tension, clearly indicating they were all experienced.

A young boy wearing glasses, who looked quite young, appeared very nervous.

He held tightly to the hand of the girl next to him, who was also very nervous and had a ponytail; they seemed to know each other.

student?

thump—

A piercing gong suddenly rang out from not far away.

Everyone fell silent and looked toward the source of the sound.

The staff gate was pushed open, and a fat man carrying a gong made of a human skull slowly walked in.

When he walked up to the crowd.

The girl with the ponytail screamed in fright, but just as she did, the boy wearing glasses next to her quickly covered her mouth.

The man before me had a round face with no nose or mouth, only a huge eye that took up three-quarters of his face!

"So you're here to apply for jobs, right? Welcome to Big-Eyed Monster Convenience Store. Starting today, you'll be officially on duty."

The one-eyed man gasped for breath, and it was unclear where the sound was coming from since he didn't have a mouth.

"My name is Niu Haoshou, but my friends like to call me Lao Shou. You can just call me the store manager."

Qin Bufei chuckled softly.

The plus-size clothes looked extremely tight on the one-eyed man, whose thick belly bulged out like that of a woman ten months pregnant.

The greasy sign that read "Manager" was pinned to the big-eyed man's chest, and soon it rolled into his flesh with his heavy breathing.

"Truly deserving of its name."

Qin Bufei whispered to Xia Xiaoqin, teasingly.

"Hey you over there, no whispering!"

Niu Haoshou lifted the gong and struck it heavily.

The gongs made of human skulls struck each other with a deafening roar, and everyone immediately covered their ears.

"Listen up, everyone. We're in a rush to hire people right now, so I'll let bygones be bygones whatever you've done in the past. As long as you don't cause trouble for the mall or get caught by the manager, I can turn a blind eye."

Niu Haoshou cleared his throat and raised his voice.

"Did you all understand?"

Everyone nodded obediently, after all, their previous identities were not exactly respectable.

"However, if you want to work here, you have to follow the rules of our convenience store."

"Our store's rule is—I am the rule, understand?"

After roaring through his speech, Niu Haoshou glared menacingly at the crowd.

"If you mess with me, you're finished. I'll crush you to death, bit by bit, with my gong!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Niu Haoshou picked up the gong in his hand and smashed it hard at the newlywed who was touching his hair.

Boom!

With a dull, loud thud as the two gongs were clamped together, the head of the newlywed who was touching his hair was smashed into pieces like a watermelon by the gongs.

"Did you all understand? If you don't want to die like this, behave yourselves from now on!"

Everyone was terrified and dared not utter a sound, for fear that they would be the next to die.

But at that moment, Qin Bufei suddenly raised his hand.

"Skinny boss, I have something I'd like to ask, may I?"

Xia Xiaoqin's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked at the boy.

"Hmm? What's up?"

Niu Haoshou glanced at Qin Bufei with an arrogant expression.

"I'd like to ask, how often do we get someone to restock our convenience store?"

"Are those delivery workers allowed to leave the mall and go outside?"

Go outside?

As soon as he finished speaking, Niu Haoshou's huge eyes widened instantly, and blood vessels appeared in his eyes.

He walked towards Qin Bufei, his eyes, which occupied three-quarters of his face, pressed tightly against Qin Bufei's face.

"Newcomer, say that again?"

Staring at the enormous eyeball, which rotates within its socket.

Qin Bufei maintained his sincere demeanor.

"Hey store manager, when will you be delivering goods?"

"I think my Mandarin is pretty standard, right?"

"Or perhaps, manager, you can't understand human language?"

Qin Bufei's words silenced the entire room.

Everyone stared at Qin Bufei in disbelief, thinking he had gone mad.

Who would deliberately provoke and provoke NPCs in a game?

Niu Haoshou just said that he is the rule! The way that person died just now is a warning to others!

Xia Xiaoqin, standing to the side, frowned and watched Qin Bufei silently without saying a word.

She didn't understand what Qin Bufei was doing.

Even if you're eager to leave, it's unwise to take such a step.

"Kid, you're asking for it!"

Niu Hao Shou suddenly yelled, his fat trembling violently.

A chilling aura instantly emanated from the obese, one-eyed man. He stared intently at Qin Bufei, his eyes flashing with anger.

But immediately, Qin Bufei apologized.

Niu Haoshou carefully examined Qin Bufei, and for some reason, he suddenly felt inexplicably unwilling to punish him.

Qin Bufei winked playfully at Xia Xiaoqin.

"This is the power of the item; my charm has increased, and the NPCs have a higher initial level of favorability towards me."

Hearing this, Xia Xiaoqin finally understood why Qin Bufei dared to be so bold.

"Everyone, listen up!"

"Our store believes in meritocracy! Is there anyone here who would like to become the assistant store manager?"

"The former assistant store manager just passed away, and the store now needs an employee to work as my assistant!"

After Niu Haoshou finished speaking, he raised the sign in his hand.

—It's the assistant store manager's badge.

[Trigger the quest]

[Triggering Target: Everyone]

[Task Successful: Gained the exclusive rights of an assistant store manager]

[Mission Failed: Death/Sent to the Third Floor]

Xia Xiaoqin squinted at the bloodstained sign that read "Deputy Store Manager," and after a moment's thought, raised her hand.

"I do."

Niu Haoshou paused for a moment, glanced at Qin Bufei who hadn't made any move, and didn't agree for the time being.

"Isn't there anyone else?"

Niu Haoshou looked around anxiously.

"Becoming an assistant store manager is something many people would kill for!"

For a moment, no one raised their hand.

After all, the greater the power and the greater the reward, the greater the risk.

Of course, losing one's life in the slightest carelessness is also a common occurrence.

"Isn't... anyone else willing to be the assistant store manager?"

Niu Haoshou's eyes swept over the others.

"I'll take on the role of assistant store manager."

The blond-haired man suddenly raised his hand, and Niu Haoshou looked at him with satisfaction and nodded.

"Good... Since you want to be the assistant store manager, please introduce yourself first."

The blond-haired man cleared his throat and then stepped forward.

"My name is Huang Zhongwang, I am 27 years old. I used to run a small supermarket in my hometown."

"I have the ability to run a supermarket, and I know the supermarket's operating procedures inside and out."

"If you choose me as the assistant store manager, I can guarantee that our supermarket will make a fortune every day, but at the very least, I can ensure that we can maintain a stable turnover in an orderly manner."
