Chapter 1753: Unlucky Heiress (20)

"Guoguo, I need to go to the restroom first."

It was Tang Yi's first time drinking the milk tea Tang Kui had bought. She had become so excited that she'd finished the entire large cup in one go and was now desperately in need of a bathroom.

Holding the cup that still had more than half of its contents left, Tang Guo nodded.

"Go ahead. We'll wait for you."

"Okay."

Tang Yi hurried off in search of the restroom, leaving Tang Guo standing alone.

Milk tea…

This was actually her first time drinking it in this lifetime.

Ever since arriving in this world, she really hadn't had time for snacks.

The snacks Chen Xian and Zhao Wen made were delicious enough. Whenever she craved something, she simply ate at their shop and rarely bought anything else.

Most importantly, throwing away trash in this city was a headache.

The complicated garbage classification system had driven the entire population to the verge of insanity.

Now Tang Guo finally understood why.

Because she couldn't finish her drink.

And she had no idea which category the remaining milk tea belonged to.

Standing in front of several garbage bins, she looked utterly conflicted.

Modern trash bins had cameras installed.

Even opening them required fingerprint identification.

If she sorted something incorrectly, her identity would immediately be recorded.

Within days, a fine would be mailed to her home.

Even worse, her name would be displayed publicly on the garbage bin's screen for an entire day as criticism.

Just thinking about it was embarrassing.

"System, look up what kind of trash milk tea counts as."

Right away, Host!

The system was trying hard not to laugh.

Even Host had moments when she became troubled over such things?

Chen Xian and Zhao Wen's snack shop rarely used disposable bowls or chopsticks. Most food was served in reusable dishes, so unusual trash was rather uncommon.

Just as the system was still searching, a young man walked up beside Tang Guo.

"Miss, do you need some help?"

His voice sounded pleasant.

Tang Guo raised her head and, upon seeing him, revealed a sweet smile.

"Yes. I don't know how to throw away this cup of milk tea."

"Judging from your accent, you're not from this city?"

Tang Guo nodded.

"That's right. My hometown is a small place where garbage sorting isn't enforced so strictly. This is also my first time buying milk tea here, so I wasn't sure what to do."

The handsome young man stretched out his hand.

"Leave it to me. I'll help you."

"Thank you very much."

Without being polite, Tang Guo handed him the cup.

She watched as he used his fingerprint to unlock the bins.

First, he poured the remaining milk tea into one container.

Then he threw the empty cup into another.

After finishing, he turned around and smiled.

"Miss, remember it now? This is how milk tea should be sorted in the future."

"I understand now. Thank you so much."

The young man smiled warmly.

"You're welcome. Since you're living in this city, you should learn more about garbage classification. If you run into similar problems later, it'll be easier to deal with them."

"You're right. I hadn't paid much attention before, but I'll definitely study it properly when I get home."

The man took out his phone and opened an application for her.

"It isn't actually that troublesome. Why don't you download this app? It contains all kinds of garbage classification information and is extremely professional."

"No matter what kind of waste you have, there's nothing this software can't solve."

"Even when new types of garbage appear, they'll soon be properly categorized."
