Chapter 1657 - Ruthless with Yourself, and Meeting In Real Life

As he spoke, Luke looked at the door of the Mexican shop not far away with a strange expression on his face. “Hm, there should still be youngsters like that.”

Catching his drift, Selina turned around and saw a young girl come out of the shop.

She was murmuring into her phone with one hand and holding a big box in the other. She looked around and saw the park.

Then, the young girl walked over and found a wider stone bench. She put down the box and propped up her phone opposite her. “Everyone, this is the delicious food you recommended me to try… Look at how red this d*mn thing is. This is the hot sauce you mentioned. It’s known as Hell’s Spice. It’s not ketchup I added myself.”

There were two trees and a flower bed between her and Luke and Selina. They were to her side, so she didn’t notice Luke and Selina watching silently.

Selina was then shocked when the girl gritted her teeth and stuffed a huge super spicy taco into her mouth and immediately started tearing up.

After staring blankly for a few seconds, she hurriedly took a bite of her regular spicy taco to calm down.

She whispered “sympathetically” in Luke’s ear, “Are kids nowadays so ruthless with themselves?”

After a brief hesitation, she asked again, “Do you think that kid will cry in the bathroom tomorrow?”

Luke calmly ate his own spicy taco and replied in a low voice, “Don’t worry, she’ll definitely be crying even harder then.”

That wasn’t the expression of someone who could eat spicy food.

Those who couldn’t eat spicy food would feel it even worse the day after.

Pondering for a moment, he said to Selina, “Look at how hard young people work nowadays. They’re actually willing to pay such a price for their careers.”

Selina was lost for words. A moment later, she mumbled, “She’s just a video blogger. Does she have to work so hard?”

Luke didn’t say anything this time. There was no way he would tell Selina that he was the one who had taught the girl!

The girl in front of him was currently the number one online video blogger in America – it was Artemis, the cosplay queen, the “beautiful legs blogger,” the goddess of all shut-ins and the “holy mother with a death wish.”

A certain person had written a “How to Be a Top Online Blogger” handbook which turned this girl without any artistic talent into a super popular online personality.

Compared with her twin sister, who used her superpower to become a singer, Artemis was doing pretty well, and was even more famous.

Also, ever since she became known as the “holy mother with a death wish,” Artemis had even more ways to make a living.

Every “death-courting” video that Artemis made now received at least a million views. Her earnings definitely weren’t low.

In the future, if she made a video of soaking in a chili oil bath or something, she could find a chili oil manufacturer to sponsor her.

After all, that would be a super hardcore commercial. The chili oil would be up front and center from beginning to end — a lot would definitely be needed to fill the bathtub.

But that was for the future.

Artemis had only just started her eating vids, and had already attracted a lot of fans. A lot of shut-ins shouted, “My wife is indeed as good at eating as I am.” It was as if they had found a connection.

But they didn’t understand that Artemis was a girl with a superpower.

Her energy attacks consumed energy, and part of it had to be replenished with food.

Coupled with the physical combat training which Luke had arranged for the three girls, she needed an astonishing amount of food.

Shut-ins who tried to copy her would definitely die in the attempt.

Luke and Selina observed the newly minted “holy mother” for a moment before they turned their attention away.

If she were Stacy, they would have paid more attention.

After all, that was Claire’s first girlfriend.

So, the three people separated by trees and flowers over a distance of ten meters enjoyed their own lives during a short meal break.

A few minutes later, however, Luke and Selina turned back around with strange expressions.

A familiar girl’s voice rang out not far away. She greeted Artemis, and the two girls sat together and chatted as they ate.

Selina whispered in Luke’s ear again, “Did you arrange for them to meet?”

Luke shook his head. “It has nothing to do with me. Just listen.”

Soon, the two people listening in quietly on the side understood what was going on.

Artemis was a video blogger. She had complained a few times in her videos that they were slow to upload and stream.

This girl, who could be considered a passer-by, had simply helped Artemis design a program for faster uploads.

That was how the two of them got to know each other. Later, they chatted when they were free, and realized that they had a lot of things in common, so they became pretty good online friends.

This wasn’t the first time that the two girls had met in real life, and they got along well.

20 minutes later, Luke and Selina were done eating, and washed everything down with two bottles of Guaraná.

Gold Nugget, which was the best at eating, licked the plates clean. The two good friends were still chatting excitedly.

Selina gestured at Luke to ask if they should sneak away.

Luke shook his head helplessly. We were here first. We’re not doing anything bad. Why should we sneak away?

Luke gestured, and they quickly packed up.

Luke then stood up… and did half a circle with Selina as they walked over from the other side of the park. When they were ten meters away, he said in surprise, “Darcy?”

The girl who was bickering with Artemis over whether Batman or the Dark Knight was more handsome jerked, and the Shamrock milk she was holding almost flew out of her hand.

She turned around and saw Luke, who was smiling. She exclaimed, “Luke, why are you here?”

Luke approached her with a smile. “We just finished lunch and were about to go to work. How have you been?”

“Darcy” nodded quickly. “Oh, very good, very good.”

Luke glanced at Artemis, only to see that she was tense and about to slip off.

It seemed that she was recalling how she had been tasered.

Luke chuckled inwardly. “Okay, I won’t disturb you and your friend. I’ll contact you tonight.”

He patted “Darcy” on the head and left.

“Darcy” was a little stumped, before she was patted on the head again. She turned around and saw Selina’s condescending expression. “Little Darcy, are you becoming shortsighted? We told you to play less on the computer and to come out for more fresh air.”

“Darcy” finally “saw” her and subconsciously nodded. “Okay, Selina. Ah, no, I’m not shortsighted…”

Selina chuckled and strolled off with Luke.

Gold Nugget quickly followed her, and just turned its head to give “Darcy” a look. Little girl, you actually dared to ignore Selina in front of me. Just you wait!

With that, it wagged its tail and hurried to catch up with Luke and Selina.

“Darcy” waved her hand numbly. “Oh, hello, Gold Nugget. Bye, Gold Nugget.”
