“Welcome. What can I get you?”

As soon as Chen Che entered, the salesperson hurriedly greeted him.

“It’s time for the discount, right?” Chen Che pointed at the noodle counter.

“Yes, sir. Fifty percent off the original price. Buy five and get one free. How many do you need?”

“Five.” Chen Che answered without hesitation.

Four for five buns and one for free. Chen Che felt that it was very worth it. How could he not take advantage of such a bargain?

The netizens finally understood that Chen Che’s so-called feast was discount buns!

The reason why he waited outside the door just now was because the convenience store’s discount time was not up yet!

Soon, the words ‘pauper’ and ‘stingy’ dominated the screen again.

Just as the livestream was complaining, Chen Che was already preparing to leave with a bun in his hand.

At this moment, the salesperson took the initiative to promote, “Sir, do you need sausages? We’re also doing a promotion now. Two sausages for only $1.50. It’s a very good deal.”

Before Chen Che could answer, the netizens had already started shouting.

[You should be able to afford it this time, right?]

[I can tolerate the fact that you didn’t add any protein in the morning, but why don’t you add it at night? You can’t just eat buns, right?]

[Pauper! I beg you to add a sausage for the goddess!]

However, just as everyone thought that Chen Che would buy it, Chen Che rejected it and said righteously, “Forget it, that amount can buy me two big buns. This is not worth it.”

With that, Chen Che turned around and left.

This action caused the live-stream to boil again. The comments flooded the screen: [I’m impressed by this guy!]

Seeing Chen Che leave, the young salesperson could not help but say, “Isn’t this too frugal? Moreover, he has a camera team behind him. Is he putting on a show?”

The older salesperson smiled. “Don’t you know? His name is Chen Che. He’s participating in a dating reality show held in our city.”

“I heard from my husband that this kid is poor and stingy. His live-stream is especially popular and everyone is complaining about him, but look at him, he looks like he’s fine.”

The young salesperson’s expression changed. “There are people who like this?”

“Not only does he have someone he likes, but she’s also a beautiful woman who doesn’t lack money.” The older salesperson sighed. “This is called everyone having their own preferences. It’s incomprehensible.”

The young salesperson nodded and did not say anything else.

While the two of them were talking, Chen Che had already returned to Lin Xi’s side.

Shaking the bun in his hand, Chen Che smiled and said, “There’s beef, pork, and your favorite green pepper with pork.”

Lin Xi smiled. “I didn’t expect you to still remember my preferences.”

“Of course, how could I forget such a big thing?” Chen Che chuckled and continued, “How is it? Dinner is full of meat. Are you satisfied with this feast?”

As soon as he said this, the live-stream was flooded with a sentence: “How dare you ask this? Chen Che, don’t you have any shame?”

Compared to the excitement of the netizens, Lin Xi did not think much of it. She said gently, “Of course I’m satisfied. As long as I can dine with you, I’m not afraid of eating plain porridge and vegetables.”

The public display of affection caught them off guard, and the netizens were once again envious!

Chen Che was also touched by the sweetness and hurriedly held Lin Xi’s hand. “Let’s go find a place to eat.”

The two of them returned to the park and finally chose a grassland.

Sitting on the ground, Lin Xi was the first to taste it. “Wow, this bun is really delicious. Moreover, eating in such an environment is really different.”

“As long as you like it.” Chen Che grinned and quickly ate.

As they chatted and ate, a simple dinner ended.

After eating four big buns, Chen Che burped, but he could not even bear to buy a bottle of water.

Helpless, he could only circle around Lin Xi. He even said eloquently that he would live to 99 from walking after eating.

Even so, he did not stop burping and kept making strange sounds.

Looking at Chen Che’s comical appearance, Lin Xi giggled.

‘You’re playing around and she’s laughing. Maybe that’s the simplest kind of happiness.’

As the night progresses, the starry sky tonight was exceptionally bright. It was so charming, as if it was blessing the couple.

Lin Xi hugged her knees and looked up at the night sky, her face brimming with happiness and satisfaction.

Under the night sky, Lin Xi looked even more devastatingly beautiful.

Chen Che stopped burping and quietly looked at Lin Xi. He was also mesmerized by her beautiful face.

Chen Che could not help but wonder if this was a blessing from his previous life.

He also understood that he was destined to live well in this life!

He could not let down this woman in front of him!

“Lin Xi, in a year, I will definitely give the best to you! You must wait for me!”

Chen Che really wanted to shout this out, but due to the uniqueness of the system, he could only say it quietly in his heart.

At this moment, the VJ was also recording the moment as he kept giving Lin Xi close-ups.

The scene in the live-stream was even more beautiful because of the filter.

The grass patch, the beauty, and the starry sky were a perfect combination.

Lin Xi was like the female lead in a fairy tale. She was mesmerizing and captivating!

At the same time, the males were jealous again. Chen Che naturally became the target of attack.

Words like “you’re not worthy” and “let her go quickly” were flooding the comments.

At that moment, Lin Xi retracted her gaze and noticed that Chen Che was staring at her.

“Hey, what are you looking at?” Lin Xi asked casually. She could not help but blush.

Chen Che quickly came back to his senses and chuckled. “Of course it’s to look at the beauty in front of me. I, Chen Che, can marry such a wife, just thinking about it makes me happy. I can even wake up laughing in my dreams.”

“What a glib tongue you have.” Lin Xi smiled sweetly.

“I’m telling the truth.” Chen Che defended himself and continued, “Alright, it’s getting late. I’ll send you back.”

Hearing this, Lin Xi hurriedly stood up, and her face could not help but turn even redder.

At this moment, the netizens widened their eyes and thought that the show they were looking forward to was finally coming.

Next, Chen Che would definitely pretend to be pitiful and beg to stay at Lin Xi’s house for the night.

But if he moved in, how could it be as simple as one night?

Chen Che was destined to stay there and not leave without a fight!

Just as the netizens were guessing, Lin Xi looked at Chen Che and hesitated.

Seeing this, Chen Che smiled and teased, “What’s wrong? You don’t want to go back? You can’t bear to part with me?”

“Aiya, stop joking.” Lin Xi bit her lip. Although she knew that Chen Che would not be as dirty as the netizens thought, the matter of living together was no small matter.

Although they did not sleep in the same room, it was inevitable that something would happen.

However, Chen Che did not say a word now. She really did not know what to do.

She could not bear to leave Chen Che homeless.

After much hesitation, Lin Xi made up her mind and took the initiative to invite him. “I know you’ve checked out of the rental room. You… you don’t have a place to stay tonight, right? Come… stay at my house.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xi felt as if her face was on fire. She did not dare to look Chen Che in the eye.
