The boy and girl arrived at the entrance of Ye Chen’s Hot Pot Restaurant.

They saw a large number of students gathered in front of the Hot Pot Restaurant.

There was also a billboard above.

"Kiss to Win Hot Pot: As long as the kiss lasts for more than thirty seconds, you can get Hot Pot for two."

Below it was a line of small text: "Our restaurant’s couple discount promotion is currently underway. For couples’ consumption, the second order is free."

Seeing these two sentences, the boy’s eyes lit up.

Kissing in public—this creative idea was simply amazing.

There was even a timer at the door, clearly prepared for the timing.

However, although many people were gathered around, not a single person dared to try.

After all, University students in 2008 were still somewhat shy; everyone was too embarrassed.

Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo watched for a while. Seeing that no one was trying, Xia Yingluo became a bit anxious.

"How about we start things off first?"

Ye Chen looked at Xia Yingluo and said with a beaming smile.

"Ah, start things off?"

Thinking about kissing in front of so many people, Xia Yingluo’s pretty face instantly turned red.

Ye Chen smiled: "Yingluo, now is the time for you to sacrifice yourself for your dreams."

As he spoke, Ye Chen directly pulled Xia Yingluo into his arms.

"Don’t."

Xia Yingluo wanted to refuse, but it was already too late.

"Mmph..."

At first, Xia Yingluo flailed her arms and legs trying to break free, but she soon compromised.

Her body went soft as she felt the electric sensation coming from Ye Chen’s lips.

At this moment, she had forgotten that she was surrounded by people, and even forgot about the time.

The onlookers were also dazed by the sight.

Thirty seconds passed quickly.

However, the two still didn’t separate.

The two of them persisted for a full two minutes before Ye Chen finally let go of Xia Yingluo, whose pretty face was flushed red from holding her breath.

Once Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo separated, she realized that so many people were watching her and Ye Chen.

The cheers and whistles of the crowd even reached her ears.

Xia Yingluo gave Ye Chen’s shoulder a light punch.

To the side, Song Yuyu said with a smile: "Congratulations! Our boss and boss’s wife have successfully completed the kissing challenge and will receive the restaurant’s reward: two free Hot Pots. Are there any other customers who want to try now?"

Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo were both very attractive to begin with, and the kiss just now had left everyone’s hearts racing.

This display of affection immediately made many young people eager to give it a go.

Hearing Song Yuyu’s words, couples immediately stepped forward to take the challenge.

Actually, calling it a challenge was a bit much; there was no difficulty at all in a boy and girl kissing.

As long as they broke through the psychological barrier, succeeding in the challenge was too easy.

Because Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo had set the example, the atmosphere on the scene immediately became lively.

Pairs of couples began to participate in the challenge.

Initially, some couples were too shy and embarrassed to step forward.

But seeing other couples succeed, their courage grew and they joined the challenge as well.

As for the single dogs, they were extremely depressed.

single dogs have no human rights; they even have to pay full price for Hot Pot.

However, although the single dogs didn’t get a discount, they did get fed dog food.

These single dogs were actually watching quite happily from the side.

But the more dog food they watched, the sadder they became. Yet, they were so pathetic that the sadder they got, the more they wanted to watch... Seeing the fiery atmosphere, Jiang Tao’s expression in the crowd was very ugly.

He clutched his hair.

How could he not have thought of such a great creative idea himself?

They were both offering discounts, but look at how much more class their discount had.

His own discount simply made him look like a fool.

Ye Chen’s move was simply brilliant.

Technically it was a fifty percent discount, but it wasn’t a fifty percent discount for everyone.

After all, there were more single dogs than couples.

But the effect of this discount was much stronger than his own.

Because the activity here was so intense, looking at his own Hot Pot Restaurant, the customers inside had all run over.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Tao felt like crying... At the start, the challenge was quite normal.

Those who came up to challenge were all couples.

However, later on, a pair of boys walked onto the stage to kiss, and the atmosphere became a bit strange.

Even Ye Chen, who had seen much of the world, was stunned.

Were the young people of this era already this open-minded?

Although Ye Chen could clearly see that one of the boys looked a bit wronged, the other boy had a face full of excitement.

And incredibly, the two of them actually completed the challenge.

Seeing this, Xia Yingluo quietly tugged at the corner of Ye Chen’s clothes.

"Ye Chen, do you think they’re really just doing it for two free Hot Pots?"

Ye Chen was also agonizing over this matter at the moment.

If it was for free Hot Pot, it wouldn’t be much.

But if it really wasn’t for the free Hot Pot, then it was a bit eerie.

Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.

Looking at the two boys, Ye Chen still silently offered his blessings.

After all, they were helping solve the problem of an excess male population, so it could be considered a contribution... Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo weren’t the only ones stunned by this scene.

The surrounding audience was also dumbfounded.

You can even play it like this?

This is a bit stimulating!

The boy who had just brought his girlfriend from Jiang Tao’s shop was also dazed.

Looking at his girlfriend beside him—it was their first date—he took a deep breath.

Even those two boys had so much courage; if he was this cowardly, would he even be a man?

The boy opened his mouth to say something, but the words just wouldn’t come out.

He wished he could slap himself twice.

He was still being a coward.

"What’s wrong with you?" The girl looked at the boy curiously.

The boy stammered: "I was just thinking, should we... maybe... also pretend to be a couple and get a free Hot Pot?"

"We’d just be pretending, you see..."

The girl didn’t say anything, but shyly lowered her head.

The boy’s heart immediately sank; it seemed he had failed.

"If you don’t like it, then forget it, it’s okay."

The girl suddenly said: "Why shouldn’t we take two? Isn’t two even cheaper?"

The boy was instantly stunned.

Happiness came too suddenly; the boy even felt a bit at a loss.

He looked at the girl whose face was burning.

The girl said with a red face: "I’m just doing it to save money."

The boy nodded repeatedly: "Right, right, it’s to save money!"

Looking at Ye Chen and Xia Yingluo, he made a silent decision in his heart.

When he got back, he would definitely send Ye Chen a pennant... Jiang Tao watched for a while, feeling more and more exhausted.

He never imagined that his Younger Martial Brother would be this formidable.

Returning to his shop, Jiang Tao looked dejected.

His partner saw Jiang Tao and was taken aback; "Boss Jiang, what’s wrong with you?"

Jiang Tao said with a face full of despondency: "Haven’t you noticed? All the customers in our shop are gone."

The partner took a look. It actually wasn’t that bad; there were still two or three customers in the shop, but compared to the lunch rush when it was completely full, it was like night and day.

And looking at the Hot Pot Restaurant ahead, they already had a long queue.
