Chapter 136

"You want to marry me?" Lou Xi asked in response.

Feng Qingci replied, "Any relationship not aimed at marriage is just fooling around."

"It's too early to discuss such things. What do you want to eat now?"

Marriage was indeed not something she needed to consider at the moment.

"I'll eat whatever you want to eat."

He felt that a lot of the stuff he read online wasn't very reliable.

"I've already eaten. Choose whatever you want for yourself."

Feng Qingci put down his phone, looked around, and then pointed to a noodle shop.

"Let's go there. The sign at the entrance mentions a challenge - eat a bowl in 30 minutes and it's free. I want to try it!"

"Are you sure you want to go?"

Lou Xi had seen restaurants advertise like this before, but very few people could complete the challenge.

Feng Qingci nodded, "Let's go in and take a look."

Lou Xi was pulled into the noodle shop by Feng Qingci. At this time, there weren't many people inside.

"Shop Owner, I want to take on your 30-minute noodle challenge from outside."

Upon hearing this, the Shop Owner looked Feng Qingci up and down. "Young man, are you sure?"

"If you can't finish it, you'll have to pay the full price, which is 358 yuan."

Although he didn't know why a bowl of noodles would be so expensive, Feng Qingci was confident in himself.

It's just a bowl of noodles, he hadn't eaten breakfast, so he was sure he could finish it in half an hour.

"I'm sure. Please go ahead and make it, Shop Owner!"

A few nearby customers curiously looked over to where Feng Qingci and Lou Xi were sitting.

Feng Qingci didn't know what they were looking at until the Shop Owner brought out the noodles. Only then did Feng Qingci realize he had completely underestimated the portion size.

Forget thirty minutes, he probably couldn't finish it in three hours!

Shop Owner: "Young man, the noodles are ready. You can't back out now."

"Shop Owner, um, I think I'll pay first."

He had never seen such a big bowl before. He could probably wash his hair in it.

The Shop Owner said with a grin: "You haven't even started the challenge yet. Pay after you fail!"

"Alright then! Shop Owner, could you please get me a small bowl?"

He still needed to maintain some dignity in front of Lou Xi.

The Shop Owner looked at Lou Xi sitting across from him, understanding that young people nowadays care about face.

Lou Xi: "There's a fruit market downstairs at my place. It's fresher there. I've already called the driver, he's waiting outside now."

After paying, Feng Qingci carried the bags out of the supermarket.

The driver came down to help put everything in the trunk.

The two of them sat in the back seat, and the car set off.

It wasn't far from Lou Xi's home, and they arrived in just a few minutes.

Downstairs, Feng Qingci started buying fruit again, as if he wanted to empty the entire market.

In the end, Lou Xi couldn't bear to watch anymore and stopped him from buying more.

"Lou Xi, I'm nervous."

"They're not going to eat you. What's there to be nervous about?"

Feng Qingci had been walking side by side with Lou Xi, but as they got out of the elevator and were about to reach the door, he suddenly hid behind her.

Lou Xi pressed the doorbell, and someone quickly came to open the door.

It wasn't just one person, but a group.

Feng Qingci guessed these must all be Lou Xi's relatives.

However, their gazes were all focused on him, which made him a bit flustered.

"... Hello everyone!"

"You must be Qingci! I often hear Lou Xi talk about you. Come in quickly," Xu Yunxin said with a smile.

Feng Qingci: "Hello, Auntie! These are gifts I bought for you."

"You're still a student, why did you buy so many things? Don't spend so much in the future."

Xu Yunxin took the gifts from Feng Qingci's hands and welcomed him in.

"Mom, there's more outside. Can you all help bring them in?" Lou Xi said.

Hearing this, everyone looked towards the door.

When they saw the pile of things stacked by the elevator exit, they were all stunned.

"Is Lou Xi's boyfriend in the wholesale business? Why did he buy so many things?"

"Not bad, quite generous. He's quite handsome too. But he looks familiar, as if I've seen him somewhere before."

"..."

Everyone pitched in together, making two trips to move all the belongings inside.

After everything was put away, Lou Xi helped introduce Feng Qingci to the people in the house.

Since it was a holiday today, they had all gathered together.

At first, Feng Qingci was a bit shy, sitting quietly to the side and only answering questions when asked.

But soon enough, he was roped into playing games with the two children.
