The Stingiest Boyfriend: The Entire Internet Begged For Me To Break Up-Chapter 60 - The So-called Candlelight Dinner
60 The So-called Candlelight Dinner
After watching the sunrise, Chen Che and Lin Xi went down the mountain. After a camping trip, their love brought them even closer together.
After Chen Che and Lin Xi returned to the city, they went to work and the VJ followed Chen Che to the delivery company.
As the new year approached, there were more deliveries. Chen Che was sweating profusely, like a robot that would not tire.
In the past, those netizens who mocked and looked down on him also changed sides. They felt that Chen Che was diligent and never complained about hard work. He was always so positive and could be said to be a good young man of the new era.
Seeing that he was getting more and more traction online, the production team did a special interview for Chen Che and Lin Xi.
“Chen Che, do you know that the netizens have given you a friendly nickname?” the host asked with a smile.
“Yes, I know, Old Scrooge Chen,” Chen Che replied with a smile.
The host continued to ask, “Are you working so hard to save money to marry Lin Xi?”
“Yes, not only to marry her, but I also hope to give Lin Xi a happy future. I’m very poor now, but I won’t be poor forever. I’ll do my best to protect her.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the host could not help but clap. “Well said.”
The netizens in the live-stream sighed.
[I’m in tears! Where can I find such a good man?!]
[No wonder Lin Xi likes him. He’s really hardworking and loves Lin Xi very much.]
[If I were a woman, I would like Chen Che too. He’s a real man!]
After an exclusive interview, Chen Che and Lin Xi were at the top of the popularity rankings. Chen Che also received a bonus of $2,000 from the production team.
After receiving the bonus, Chen Che took the initiative to suggest, “Lin Xi, let’s celebrate. I’ll treat you to a candlelight dinner.”
“I don’t want western food. I want fried noodles.”
Lin Xi rejected him. It was not that she did not want to have a candlelight dinner with Chen Che, but she had seen Chen Che work so hard to move packages and could not bear to go to a high-end restaurant to eat.
Chen Che could tell what Lin Xi meant at a glance. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry about the money. I have a way.”
That night at 7.00 pm.
Chen Che brought Lin Xi to the cake shop. He first used a voucher to buy a four-inch cake and asked the shop assistant for some candles.
Then, the two of them arrived at the supermarket and squatted down to buy some discounted goods before returning to Lin Xi’s residence.
Chen Che placed the things he had bought in the sink and began to prepare to cook. Lin Xi sat on the sofa not far away, working away on her laptop.
The scene of the two of them in the same frame looked extremely warm. This was the calmness that most people pursued.
Half an hour later, Chen Che brought out two plates from the kitchen. There was an exquisite steak inside and some vegetables and noodles beside it.
Lin Xi looked at the things on the plate and was stunned.
“Is this fried sauce noodles?”
Chen Che smiled and nodded. “That’s right! Steak with fried sauce noodles. Everything you want to eat is here.”
Lin Xi smiled sweetly and was about to pick up her chopsticks to taste it when Chen Che stopped her. Please visit 𝗳re𝐞𝓌e𝚋n૦ѵ𝗲l. co𝐦
“Wait a minute.”
Chen Che hurriedly got up and took the cake out of the box. He turned off the dining room light, inserted a candle, and lit it.
“Candlelight dinner complete!”
The dim candle light shone on Chen Che’s handsome face. Lin Xi was infatuated and her heart was filled with happiness.
The so-called candlelight dinner that Chen Che mentioned was two pieces of ordinary beef and a plate of fried sauce noodles, a free cupcake, and a few candles.
However, it was the most romantic candlelight dinner Lin Xi had ever seen.
After dinner, Chen Che insisted on leaving and went to work at his part-time job.
He only slept for four to five hours a day and worked hard, but he never looked tired, as if he had endless energy.
…
In the blink of an eye, a few months had passed. Chen Che was working step by step. There was only a month left until the system’s deadline.
During this period of time, Chen Che and Lin Xi’s relationship quickly heated up passionately.
During this period, the officials organized three official events. They were an Understanding Your Partner challenge, a Couple Teamwork challenge, and Put Makeup on for Each Other challenge.
Chen Che and Lin Xi won first place twice and received a prize of $4,000.
To Chen Che, the Understanding Your Partner challenge was not difficult at all. He and Lin Xi were childhood sweethearts. The two of them knew each other very well and could not be compared to those men and women who had gotten together at the last minute.
In the second round of activities, the boyfriend had to carry his girlfriend and go through many physical obstacles. The fastest person to arrive would be the winner.
Chen Che was a manual worker to begin with. His physique was very good, and he crushed everyone in this segment.
When the other men were halfway through the level, Chen Che had already reached the end.
The netizens in the live-stream were once again convinced by Chen Che. The entire screen was filled with emojis with red hearts.
As for the remaining two activities, they were not Chen Che’s forte.
When the couple were putting on makeup for each other, Chen Che looked at the table full of makeup and was dumbfounded.
In the end, he relied on his aesthetic sense to obtain second place. The first place was Luo Yuelin and Li Wei.
Actually, Chen Che and Lin Xi had obtained first place twice in a row, and Luo Yuelin could not sit still anymore.
She bribed a staff member of the production team t o find out what’s the next event from him before anything was announced. Then, she immediately got a professional makeup artist to teach Li Wei how to put on makeup.
Therefore, Li Wei performed very well in this segment and took first place.
However, even if Luo Yuelin won the first place in this event, she still could not shake Chen Che and Lin Xi’s position as the first place.
...
…
In the office of the Luo Real Estate.
BANG!
Luo Yuelin slammed the table heavily, her eyes filled with hostility.
“I spent so much money, but I’m still in second place! A bunch of trash!”
Ever since Luo Yuelin participated in this show, she had spent almost $10 million in total. She hired paid posters to buy Eternal Love and secretly gave money to the staff.
She had put in so much effort, but in the end, she was still ranked under someone else. How could she take this lying down?!
Seeing this, the short-haired girl comforted her softly, “Sister Lin, don’t be angry. Their first place is only temporary. The show is still so long away. It’s still not certain who will be the final winner!”
Luo Yuelin’s expression was a little twisted. She had participated in this show to become famous. She did not expect to be suppressed by a pauper after participating in the show.
“I don’t care. Since I’m not popular enough, I’ll spend money to farm votes!”
“Continue to hire paid posters to defame them! I don’t believe that I, the heir of the Luo Real Estate, can’t defeat them!”
...
“Alright, Sister Lin!”
The short-haired girl quickly agreed, afraid that she would attract trouble.
That night, Luo Yuelin’s popularity rose crazily. She was only a step away from Chen Che and Lin Xi.
Then, an interesting scene happened.
The group of netizens who liked Chen Che immediately charged money and farmed votes when they saw that someone had threatened the Xi Che couple’s status.
[You get one vote, I get one. Chen Che will debut tomorrow!]
[I won’t allow anyone to threaten Old Scrooge Chen’s status. He will always be the most stingy in my heart!]
…
[F*ck! I really don’t understand why so many people like this pauper! Being poor is a sin. You don’t deserve love!]
[Chen Che already has money after obtaining $200,000 as compensation, but he still brought Lin Xi to eat cheap goods. He’s so stingy to his girlfriend. How can he still be called a man?]
