Chapter 371 I won't hold it against you



Lu Xizhou thought it must be because he had been waiting for Qin Chu for too long and was hungry, rather than because the beef stir-fried rice noodles were delicious.

The lunchbox, which was bigger than his face, actually didn't have as much capacity as he thought.

It was gone in just a few bites.

"Boss, another one!"

The boss, who had been working non-stop in front of the stove, shouted, and Lu Xizhou turned back to look at Qin Chu with a smile in his eyes, "Qin Chu, you're actually quite boring!"

Qin Chu was taken aback, and anger flashed across his face.

Lu Xizhou smiled, looked into her eyes, and said, "You clearly look down on someone like me, but you insist on saying such nice things, as if you're the mud on the ground and I'm the cloud in the sky, and we're not on the same wavelength. But what's the reality?"

With a slight smile, Lu Xizhou shook his head. "Actually, in your heart, you've never felt that we're not on the same path. Rather, you felt that some things could be nipped in the bud to reduce trouble. Am I right?"

Having his thoughts guessed, Qin Chu didn't back down verbally, saying, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Fine, keep pretending! I'm not going to hold it against you!"

Lu Xizhou shook his head as he spoke, and seeing the owner bring the steaming hot beef stir-fried rice noodles to his face, he quickly reached out and took out a pair of chopsticks to break them apart and prepare to eat.

Looking up again, he met Qin Chu's glare. "Using two pairs of chopsticks for one meal, it's really unfair to Young Master Lu!"

Looking around, everyone was eating and drinking, casually picking up the chopsticks on the table and continuing to eat.

But looking back, you see a table that's shiny with oil and hasn't been wiped for who knows how many centuries.

Lu Xizhou glared at Qin Chu fiercely, "Qin Chu, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"Yes, I did it on purpose!"

Qin Chu frankly admitted, "Rather than letting Young Master Lu have any unrealistic fantasies about me, it's better to show you the truth from the beginning."

Lu Xizhou raised an eyebrow slightly, then slowly lowered it, and smiled smugly, "Fine, you're not going to play dumb with me anymore, are you?"

He wiped away his sweat.

Then, using chopsticks, they separated the fried noodles and let them cool.

Looking at Qin Chu, who exuded a reckless and unruly air and didn't resemble a typical heiress from a wealthy family at all, Lu Xizhou asked with a smile, "So, this is how you and Miss Ali met?"

"Her..."

Mentioning Ye Li, Qin Chu smiled, "She's the one who brought me here."

In short, Lu Xizhou's eyebrows almost flew off.

What kind of international joke is this?

Would Ye Li, a young lady born and raised in a wealthy family, who was taken in by Fu Yanci as his Snow White after only a month of the Ye family's decline, be someone who eats at roadside stalls?

Qin Chu laughed and said, "When I first met her, she stood up for me. Some scheming, manipulative girl came up to me and did something stupid, telling her that I was the illegitimate daughter of the Qin family and that she would suffer retribution if she associated with me, and that she should stay away from me. Guess what she said?"

Looking at Qin Chu, who was smiling beautifully and gracefully, he felt a sense of peace and beauty.

Then think of Ye Li, whose every smile and frown was exceptionally charming.

Lu Xizhou shook his head, "It's definitely not something nice to hear."

Qin Chu smiled broadly, and when she spoke again, her tone and demeanor had transformed into the charming Ye Li, "I don't know who Miss Qin is, but familiarity breeds contempt. However, I'm quite annoyed by you, and I'm absolutely certain of that."

That day it was in the lobby of the Vicent bar, I forget who had something to celebrate.

In short, the entire venue was booked out.

Is she the eldest daughter of the Ye family, or the future Mrs. Zhou?

She herself was stunningly beautiful.

Ye Li is the center of attention wherever she goes.

So much so that as soon as those words were spoken, the green tea b*tch turned pale on the spot.

Enraged but not daring to retaliate, the scheming woman glared at Ye Li hatefully before turning and leaving.

"The second time we met, someone spilled something on my dress, and she took me to change. After we changed, we didn't go back. She said she wanted to let me experience the everyday life of ordinary people, so we came here."

Resting his chin on his hand, Qin Chu gazed at the dark night sky in the distance, his eyes filled with reminiscence. "Can you imagine? A Mercedes pulled up to the side of the road, the door opened, and two fairies stepped out, dressed in evening gowns, sitting at a roadside stall eating fried noodles. They were also enjoying skewers and beer..."

That was the most beautiful color in her 20 years of bleak life.

Even today, it remains vivid in my memory.

Do you know what the best food is around here?

Without any apparent reason, Qin Chu turned to Lu Xizhou and said, "Go forward two hundred meters, turn right and go to the third shop, Second Brother's Crayfish. I would call it the best in the capital!"

The stir-fried noodles suddenly didn't smell good anymore.

Lu Xizhou threw down his chopsticks. "Isn't it crayfish season right now? Qin Chu, are you kidding me? We have crayfish, the best in the capital, and you brought me here to eat stir-fried noodles?"

Qin Chu: ...

"Hurry up, let's get some crayfish!"

After quickly shoveling down the last few mouthfuls of rice noodles, Qin Chu put his phone back down, which he was about to use to scan the QR code to pay.

Lu Xizhou looked annoyed. "If you're treating me to a meal, it should at least be something like crayfish, right? You only offered me stir-fried rice noodles. How embarrassing would that make me look bad?"

drop.

"Boss, how much?"

"Three fried noodles, right? 30."

"..."

Lu Xizhou had never been so speechless in his 28 years of life.

Two people, three plates of fried noodles, 30 yuan.

Forget about buying a pack of cigarettes, even a bottle of water wouldn't cost this much, right?

"Qin Chu, I see now, you did this on purpose! Fine, as you wish!"

Taking a few steps forward, Lu Xizhou blocked Qin Chu in front of the car door, looking into Qin Chu's eyes and saying, "Woman, you've successfully caught my attention!"

"..."

Pushing him away, Qin Chu looked utterly exasperated. "Young Master Lu, stop watching those cheesy, low-brow videos. They're so corny they're practically slapstick!"

As if he had achieved his goal, Lu Xizhou smiled smugly.

The car was running, and we arrived before I even had a chance to press the accelerator.

Seeing the small restaurant packed with people inside and out, with barely any room to stand, Lu Xizhou grabbed Qin Chu, who was about to get out of the car, and said, "You treat me to crayfish, and I'll take you to see the night view, how about it?"

"make a deal!"

Breaking free from his arm, Qin Chu pushed open the door, slammed it shut, and drove off.

It was unclear whether Qin Chu had said anything, but the bald owner of the restaurant, who was stir-frying crayfish with great enthusiasm, greeted Qin Chu with a smile, as if the two were very familiar with each other.

The bald boss shouted something to one of the tables of diners, and the boss's wife brought over two more bottles of beer.

The freshly cooked crayfish were immediately packed into a takeout box and handed to Qin Chu.

Qin Chu turned and left.

The car door opened, and the air was filled with the fresh, spicy aroma.

Lu Xizhou laughed, "Are you trying to dine and dash? Not going to pay?"

I received a disapproving look.

The Ferrari roared away, and when Lu Xizhou looked back, he saw the money transfer dialog box on Qin Chu's phone.

So that's how it can be done?

After a moment of surprise, realizing that this was no different from sending a WeChat message to a friend asking them to reserve a private room or a venue, Lu Xizhou shook his head and chuckled.

A gentle night breeze was blowing.

The air smells wonderful.

More than ten minutes later, the Ferrari stopped.

Looking at this familiar place, Qin Chu chuckled, "This is what you call... taking me to see the night view?"
