Chapter 9
Lin Xichen ignored him, reached out to pick up the newspaper on the coffee table, and lay on the sofa flipping through it boredly. After reading it for a while, he suddenly sat upright, his eyes lit up, "Come here, come here!"
"There is a new fried dumpling restaurant on Wenjia Road. A dumpling eating competition will be held at [-] o'clock tonight. All participating friends will receive prizes." Mu Mu Nian said.
"Are you going?" Ye Tianche asked with some uncertainty.
"Nonsense, if you don't eat for nothing, let alone now I'm starving to death." Lin Xichen said it as a matter of course.
"You eat for nothing." Ye Tianche gave him a disdainful look, "You only grow tall but you don't grow brains."
"Let's go!" Mu Mu suddenly became excited, and moved to Lin Xichen's side, "I want this."
"Household electric oven?" Lin Xichen wondered, "Why do you want this?"
"I want to learn how to make cakes recently." Mu Mu said with a smile.
"But, this one has to be the first place." Lin Xichen propped his chin, pretending to be embarrassed.
Mu Mu understood, and patted him on the shoulder generously, "As long as I have food to eat, I will never let you eat porridge."
"Deal!" Lin Xichen made a final decision.
"I want to go to you two, I won't go to such a shameful thing." Ye Tianche rolled his eyes, yawned and turned on the TV.
Mu Mu and Lin Xichen exchanged glances, then glanced at Ye Tianche who was staring at the TV, and finally nodded to each other, "Let's go."
Half an hour later, three people stood in front of the fried dumpling shop.
"Isn't there someone who can't tell?" Lin Xichen crossed his arms and said in a weird way on purpose.
Ye Tianche stretched out his long leg and kicked Lin Xichen's calf through Mu Mu, with a somewhat threatening tone, "Do you want to die or do you want to die?"
Mu Mu was helpless, in order to prevent the disaster from getting worse, without waiting for Lin Xichen to react, she raised her hand and hurriedly pushed Lin Xichen into the store, "Hurry up, it's almost time."
The store was very crowded, and the three of them were caught in the middle and couldn't even turn around.Lin Xichen spoke intermittently when he was squeezed, "There are so many people, can't all of them participate in the competition?"
A few minutes after ten o'clock, a middle-aged man with the appearance of a host came out from the backstage, holding a microphone, "Thank you for coming to our store's opening event in your busy schedule, I hope you all have a good time today and eat happily .”
There was a burst of applause from the audience.
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, and enter the most anticipated part of today, the dumpling eating competition!" The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand to signal, and several staff members brought the dumplings to the stage.
"Our rules are very simple, within 10 minutes, the person who eats the most and fastest wins, No. 1 one, the prize is - a household electric oven; No. 2 two, the prize is - this year's best-selling A set of cooking books; No.3 three, the prize is - ten fried dumplings from our restaurant; the last is the participation award, three fried dumplings! Now, friends who want to participate in the competition are invited to come on stage!"
Lin Xichen looked at the super-large fried dumplings on the big plate, and his arrogance suddenly weakened by three points, "If you eat like this, nothing will happen, right?" He said without a trace and took a step back.
Ye Tianche grabbed his collar, "Who patted his stomach and said that he was absolutely fine? If you want to run, let alone the door, don't even think about the window."
The first person to come on stage was a heavyweight. Every time he took a step, Mu Mu could clearly feel the ground shaking. Lin Xichen was crying, looking at someone who was three times bigger than him, just like seeing someone who was bigger than himself Triple the stomach.
The second person to take the stage was extremely skinny, Lin Xichen was relieved, there was finally someone weaker than herself.Ye Tianche smiled, elbowed him, and raised his chin, "Look at his expression."
"I'm not so unlucky, am I?" Lin Xichen complained. The thin man looked at the fried dumplings, swallowed his saliva, his eyes glowed, and he didn't know how much he had been hungry.
Mu Mu saw Lin Xichen's worry, and cheered him up hopefully, "Don't worry, you should have confidence in your stomach, I think you can definitely beat them."
"Give me paper and pen." Lin Xichen said.
"What?" Mu Mu was puzzled. "Why do you need a pen and paper?"
"Write a suicide note." Lin Xichen looked serious, "This time I have to work hard."
Ye Tianche became impatient, so he stretched out his hand and pushed him onto the stage, "Go, go, if you die, brother will definitely find you a feng shui treasure to bury you in a beautiful place. Don't be naughty, go at ease."
Lin Xichen turned his head three times a step, walked a few steps and then ran back suddenly, and said to Mu Mu in a heavy tone, "Mu Mu, I have no other requirements, if I have any accidents at that time, remember to burn a computer for me , if I don’t go online, I won’t be able to sleep.”
Mu Mu nodded and said straightforwardly, "Okay."
Lin Xichen pouted, "Why don't you tell me not to go, you."
Ye Tianche took two steps back, took a deep breath, and kicked Lin Xichen up.
At the start of the game, Lin Xichen didn't care about other things, he ate his head for several minutes before raising his head to check the situation of the others. Only then did he realize that he was temporarily in the lead.
The fat man on the right, because he is too fat, eats a lot, but moves very slowly. The skinny man on the left, although he eats fast, is in a state of coughing and stopping because he ate too fast at the beginning.The others slowed down after eating five or six plates, and they couldn't eat much anymore.
Lin Xichen glanced at the empty plates on his table, there were eight, and he should still be able to eat.
After eating for a while, many people started to give up. They sat on the chairs and moaned while rubbing their stomachs. Only three people persisted. Lin Xichen was depressed. It seemed that they were all going to the oven. It was the No.13 plate. , he clearly felt that the fried dumplings had piled up to his esophagus.
Lin Xichen raised his head, rolled his eyes, and said to Mu Mu standing in front of him, "I can't eat anymore."
Mu Mu's eyes were firm, and she shook her head calmly, "You can."
Ye Tianche held back his laughter and didn't speak.
Lin Xichen picked up the remaining two fried dumplings and stuffed them into his mouth in the last two seconds.
"Okay, it's time!" The host announced, and at the same time signaled the staff to come to the stage to count.
"Now, everyone can see that our No.1," he walked over and raised Lin Xichen's right hand, "is this young man, and his score is thirteen sets!"
Mu Mu jumped up happily and clapped desperately.
Lin Xichen took the electric oven and handed it to Mu Mu, covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom, throwing up.
Ye Tianche leaned against the door and handed him the tissue in disgust, "I've done my own crime, I can't live."
Lin Xichen leaned against the wall and panted heavily, "I just realized today that eating is such a painful thing, Ah Che, do you know that the fried dumplings in this store are really the worst thing I have ever eaten."
Ye Tianche didn't miss the opportunity to laugh at him, stepped forward and patted him on the back vigorously, Lin Xichen suddenly felt the contents of his stomach pouring into his mouth again, rushed over, lay down next to the toilet and vomited again.After finally vomiting, he almost didn't even have the strength to stand up, and said angrily, "Are you hurting me or helping me?"
Ye Tianche laughed for a while, then waved his hand, "Sorry, I didn't mean it."
Lin Xichen obviously didn't believe what he said, so he lowered his head and stopped talking after snorting.
"Okay, let's talk about it now, the reason." Ye Tianche suddenly said, Lin Xichen raised his head inexplicably, but saw that he had restrained his usual expression of indifference to everything, and he was calm but with a rare expression. serious.
"The rumors are indeed true," Lin Xichen realized, and smiled mischievously, "I don't usually see that you care about her, but when it comes to the critical moment, hehe, but why did you wait until now to ask, unlike What's your style?"
"Because I know what kind of person you are." Ye Tianche replied, "I'm just curious, what made you suddenly change your mind."
"Aunt Su." Lin Xichen explained, "Do you know what she said to me?"
Ye Tianche didn't answer, and waited for him to finish speaking.
"She said, you may not believe it. From the first time I saw that child, I had a strange intimacy with her. She is a special girl and a good girl. I believe Chu Yi can feel it too. , It's just that he is blinded by hatred now and can't see his own heart clearly. I hope you can help him, if you don't believe it, you can approach her yourself and try it."
"Then you transferred to our class on purpose." Ye Tianche continued, speaking with certainty.
"Hehe, you really understand me, Ah Che, but I was really surprised by that girl's mathematical reasoning, but because of this, it also made me more determined to get close to her."
"Although I know you don't have any malicious intentions, what you said sounds really unpleasant." Ye Tianche folded his arms, half-jokingly.
"Okay, okay, I get it." Lin Xichen rolled his eyes at him, "You also know that I have never been resistant to food, so—"
"I knew it earlier, that's all you have to offer." Ye Tianche shrugged.
"However," Lin Xichen seemed to suddenly think of something, "Maybe you won't be happy when I say this, but—you should know, she is a person who wraps herself tightly, like a cactus, Although you can't see the obvious thorns, they really exist. Even you haven't been able to fully enter her heart now. And if she can't learn to trust others, although she can live strong, she can't Doomed to be alone forever. Isn’t the flower language of cactus the strength of loneliness.”
Ye Tianche turned his face slightly, stared at the lights on the ceiling in a daze, fell silent for a while, and then walked out with strides.
Lin Xichen stood up and walked out after him.
Half asleep and half awake, Ye Tianche heard the vibrating sound of his mobile phone, he half-opened his eyes and looked at the caller ID, it was Chu Yi.
The boy's voice was a little hoarse, as if he was also suffering from insomnia, "Ache,"
"Well, what's wrong?" Ye Tianche turned over and buried himself under the blanket.
"I miss Xiaoyin."
There was a sudden silence on the phone, and after a while, when Ding Chuyi couldn't help but want to make sure he was asleep, Ye Tianche's usual lazy voice came over, "Just think about it, Sleep when you're done thinking."
"My mother told me today that she is my younger sister." Ding Chuyi continued.
"And then." Ye Tianche's voice was still calm.
"I only have one younger sister, Xiaoyin." The boy's voice came, stubborn and stubborn.
