Chapter 8
“Handsome, you two are really a perfect match. Buy a flower for your girlfriend!”
Chen Che wanted to wave his hand and refuse, but on second thought, today was his first day with Lin Xi, so he should indeed give her some flowers.
As the saying goes, save what needs to be saved and spend what needs to be spent!
Moreover, from Lin Xi’s eyes, he could tell that she wanted it.
After making up his mind, Chen Che asked, “How much is one?”
“$9.90 means your relationship will last till the end of time!”
The corner of Chen Che’s mouth trembled. Even though the other party explained it beautifully, it did not make him want to spend it immediately.
Besides, he didn’t have $9.90!
After a short silence, Chen Che said, “$1.50. I’ll buy one.”
As soon as he said this, the live-stream immediately started complaining.
[Chen Che! Go to hell! How dare you bargain for a flower?]
[Oh my god, you’re letting down the goddess’s gentleness!]
[If the goddess is with me, I’m willing to buy her a car! Chen Che is really hopeless!]
The flower girl was also stunned. “Handsome, isn’t $1.50 too little? It doesn’t sound good either.”
“Besides, your girlfriend is so beautiful. You can’t even bear to spend $9.90?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Che was unhappy. He said reasonably, “It’s not that I can’t bear to, but I want it to be worth it.”
“I’ve bought flowers before. With this kind of quality, I only need to spend $10 for 20 stalks.”
“In other words, the price of a piece is 50 cents. Although you decorated it, how much did the decorative paper cost?”
“Including your handling fee, you still earn more than half of the $1.50. To be honest, I gave you 50 cents extra because you worked hard.”
After hearing Chen Che’s words, the flower seller was dumbfounded. She had been selling flowers for more than half a year and had never encountered such a situation.
Most importantly, she had nothing to refute!
Looking at the flower girl’s stunned expression, Chen Che smiled and took out $1.50 from his pocket. “Sell me one. You can’t spend the night with this kind of quality. If you can’t sell it tonight, you won’t even get $1.50.”
The flower seller could not help but give Chen Che a thumbs up. “Handsome, you’re really an expert. I’m impressed.”
Just like that, Chen Che finally bought a stalk for $1.50.
The comments in the live broadcast room came up even faster. They shouted for help and could not take it anymore. They were all defeated by Chen Che’s stinginess!
Seeing the flower girl leave, Lin Xi covered her mouth and smiled. She did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she felt that Chen Che was very funny.
“This is the first time I’ve seen a buyer convince the seller. It’s a waste of your talent not to do business.”
“I’m just telling the truth.” Chen Che shrugged and slowly stood up.
Lin Xi was stunned. “What are you doing?”
Chen Che did not respond. He held the flowers with both hands and knelt on one knee in front of Lin Xi.
Lin Xi was shocked. Only then did she understand what Chen Che wanted to do.
Without waiting for Lin Xi to speak again, Chen Che shouted, “Lin Xi! I’m extremely happy every minute and second I’m with you!”
“Although I’m poor now, I won’t be poor forever!”
“I promise you that after a year, I will definitely become rich! I will definitely give you a grand wedding!”
“I want everyone to understand that your choice was not wrong. You will be the happiest woman in the world!”
“Lin Xi, I love you!”
Chen Che’s impassioned words immediately caused the surrounding uncles and aunties to clap and cheer.
“A poor man’s ambition is not poor. Good job, young man!”
“You’ll make it!”
“You two young people will definitely grow old together!”
Amidst the blessings, Lin Xi took the rose with both hands and cried tears of joy.
A rose worth $1.50 was now priceless in her eyes!
That’s right. She was so easily satisfied, so easily moved.
Of course, the target of all this had to be Chen Che!
She saw confidence and determination in Chen Che’s eyes.
She even had a feeling that in a year, Chen Che would really be very rich!
Chen Che stood up and Lin Xi immediately threw herself into Chen Che’s arms.
The two of them hugged each other tightly and received another round of applause.
Seeing this, the male compatriots in the live-stream were speechless. They did not expect Chen Che to impress the goddess again.
Some people are just meant to carve his own path.
In their opinion, all of Chen Che’s flattery was to pave the way for cohabitation!
With someone taking the lead, there were immediately followers. The entire live-stream room was filled with different opinions.
Heart-shaped eggs on instant noodles, showing off his boyfriend’s power in front of a rich man, and now making an oath in public.
...
Lin Xi had never dreamed that in just one day, he would leave her with so many memories. It was worth it to participate in this show!
The other groups that were secretly paying attention were all filled with disdain at this moment. They really did not understand what was so good about this pauper’s romance.
Moreover, they felt that Chen Che seemed to be acting. He was even acting a little too much!
Jealousy really made one’s thoughts improper!
After the touching moment in the park ended, Chen Che and Lin Xi realized that it was already past eight o’clock. The two of them had not eaten and were a little hungry.
“Chen Che, someone recommended a Western restaurant to me. They said it’s especially delicious. Shall we try it?” Lin Xi suggested.
Chen Che shook his head. “Forget it. It’s so expensive.”
“It’s alright. You treated me in the morning. It’s my treat now,” Lin Xi said with a smile.
“There’s really no need. Besides, I don’t like Western food.” Chen Che rejected again on the grounds that he didn’t like it.
Not wanting Lin Xi to spend money recklessly was one thing. More importantly, he did not want to be scolded for freeloading.
This year was destined to be a little tough, but he could not lose his image!
...
Seeing Chen Che’s expression, Lin Xi could not force him. She could only ask, “Then what do you want to eat?”
Chen Che looked around and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Looking at the time, Chen Che hurriedly said, “Wait for me here for a while. I’ll treat you to a feast!”
Lin Xi frowned and waited on the spot in confusion.
Seeing Chen Che running across the road, the VJ hurriedly followed.
From the camera, the netizens saw McDonald’s. Chen Che’s route was also heading there.
Everyone could not help but wonder if Chen Che was finally enlightened and was finally willing to spend a little.
Although this was not as good as eating at a restaurant, it was still better than instant noodles.
However, a few minutes later, the netizens were once again shocked.
That was because Chen Che passed by McDonald’s and stopped in front of the convenience store!
Looking at his phone, Chen Che murmured, “We have to wait another minute.”
Seeing Chen Che waiting at the door, the netizens were in an uproar.
[Tsk! How can there be a feast here?]
[Don’t tell me he wants to buy instant noodles again?]
[The same trick twice? Are you tired of it?]
[Instant noodles in the morning and again instant noodles at night? Can this guy be any stingier?]
[It’s over, it’s over. Our goddess has been with him for three and a half days. Isn’t she hungry?]
[He doesn’t deserve a goddess!]
Just as everyone was discussing, Chen Che smiled and strode through the door.
The comments instantly stopped. All of them widened their eyes and looked forward to what Chen Che was going to do.
