Chapter 12
Do You Want to Die?
Seeing the intense discussion in the live-stream, the organizer also started the guessing interaction.
[How extravagant will Chen Che be tonight?]
[Below $50 VS Above $50]
It had to be said that the organizer was just here to watch the show. How could a meal below $50 be considered extravagant?
To put it bluntly, he didn’t even use dirty words when insulting him!
As the topic was pushed to the top, the netizens immediately participated. Most of them chose above $50.
In their opinion, Chen Che had received $1,000. No matter how stingy he was, he should still be willing to spend $50 at least.
Some netizens were already praying in the live broadcast room not to be slapped in the face!
As for those who voted below $50, these people were anti-fans from the beginning to the end. They firmly believed that Chen Che would definitely be stingy to the end.
As a result, there were pros and cons in the live-stream, and there was endless debate.
Half an hour later, along with everyone’s expectations, Chen Che brought Lin Xi to the snack street.
At this moment, this place was extremely lively. It was a place that office workers and young couples liked to hang out.
When the netizens saw this, they could not help but feel a little disappointed because they had thought that Chen Che would go to a restaurant.
However, it was not difficult to spend $50 here. Even if the two of them ate some skewers, it would cost more than $100.
Because of this, they still felt that they had made the right choice.
At this moment, the anti-fans became happy. In their opinion, Chen Che’s arrival was the embodiment of stinginess. At most, he would have two bowls of spicy hotpot, the kind that did not even dare to add meat.
Upon hearing this, the netizens were unhappy. The two sides once again had an intense argument.
Just as the netizens were arguing, Chen Che stopped in his tracks. He was already deeply attracted by the slogan of a shop.
The slogan was: On the last day of the Spice Challenge, if you succeed, your meal will be free!
Before coming, Chen Che had not actually thought about what to eat, but it would not cost too much money.
No one knew that $1,000 had been deposited into the system.
He only had $30 with him now, and this was earned by selling scraps.
Therefore, how could he miss out on such a good opportunity?
But what made him conflicted was, was Lin Xi willing to eat spicy hotpot?
Moreover, he had already said what he wanted to say. If he continued to be stingy, would Lin Xi be unhappy?
At this moment, Lin Xi had already noticed Chen Che’s gaze and instantly understood.
Actually, she didn’t care what she ate. Just as she had said before, even if she ate plain porridge and vegetables, she was happy as long as she was with Chen Che.
In order not to let Chen Che think too much, Lin Xi smiled and said, “How did you know that I wanted to eat spicy hotpot?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Che’s eyes lit up. “You don’t mind eating this?”
“Of course.” Lin Xi nodded. “And I think this challenge is quite interesting. Do you want to give it a try?”
“Alright, let’s eat this.” Chen Che was overjoyed and hurriedly pulled Lin Xi through the door.
At this moment, the netizens in the live broadcast room fell silent. They thought to themselves, “If you hit someone, don’t hit their face. Chen Che is f*cking hitting his face!”
The anti-fans cheered.
[Haha! Look, I told you that this poor guy would at most eat a bowl of spicy hotpot. I was right!]
[You guys are still defending this pauper. Have you been slapped in the face?]
[Fortunately, I’m smart! I’m about to get the points!]
Looking at these comments, the netizens were even more furious.
Originally, some supporters had already begun to curse angrily, feeling that Chen Che was really stingy.
He kept saying that he wanted to be extravagant today, but this was it?
How embarrassing!
When the atmosphere in the live broadcast room changed, the couple had already entered the shop and taken their seats.
At this moment, the waiter welcomed them with a smile. “Welcome. Meat dishes cost $20 and vegetarian dishes cost $15. Which do you want?”
Chen Che pointed to the activity board on the wall. “I want to find out about this challenge.”
“Oh, this is a joint event between the spicy chicken wings and our restaurant. As long as the handsome man doesn’t drink water and can finish two chicken wings, the bill for this meal will be waived,” the waiter introduced enthusiastically.
“If the challenge is successful, both meat and vegetable dishes can be chosen, right?” Chen Che asked.
“Yes, handsome. Not only spicy hotpot, but you can also order fried skewers and sausages. As long as it’s something from our shop, it’s free no matter how much you spend.”
“The prerequisite is that you have to succeed. If not, you have to pay for the chicken wings.”
Chen Che was overjoyed. Wasn’t it just two chicken wings?
He was definitely going to take advantage of this!
“I want to take up the challenge. Bring me the chicken wings.”
The waiter nodded. “Alright, please wait a moment.”
Lin Xi reminded him, “Don’t force yourself. I remember that you don’t eat spicy food very much.”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry. I’ve already trained.” Chen Che patted his chest confidently.
After a while, the waiter brought the chicken wings over.
The two chicken wings were an angry shade of red. One can tell it is really spicy.
However, Chen Che did not care. In his opinion, even if it’s spicy, how much more spicy could it get?
On the surface, it looked like he had saved dozens of dollars, but according to the cash basin, he had saved hundreds of thousands!
“Can we start now?” Chen Che asked.
“There you go, handsome.”
After getting his approval, Chen Che quickly put on disposable gloves, picked up a chicken wing, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The moment it entered his mouth, Chen Che felt as if his entire mouth was on fire.
The next second, he could not help but cough violently. He thought to himself, Isn’t this too f*cking spicy?
In fact, how could something like this be easy?
If anyone could succeed in the challenge, wouldn’t the shop lose everything?
At the end of the day, Chen Che was still too young!
Lin Xi hurriedly handed Chen Che a piece of tissue. “Are you alright? If you can’t eat it, then forget it.”
“It’s fine. I just didn’t prepare my first bite.” Chen Che forced a smile and started eating again.
After a few mouthfuls, Chen Che felt as if his throat and stomach were on fire. His lips were numb!
But even so, he didn’t give up. If he gave up now, he would lose the free meal and he would have to pay for the chicken wings.
In order to get a free meal, he had to go all out!
After a few more bites, Chen Che was completely numb. His smile was gone, and his face was flushed red. Tears flowed uncontrollably.
Today, he finally understood what it meant to be so spicy that he’ll question his life choices!
Seeing this, the waiter kindly reminded him, “Handsome, this spiciness can only be endured by someone who can eat spicy food. I think you shouldn’t insist on continuing. A few days ago, there was a handsome man who tried to be brave. In the end, he was sent to the hospital.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi also became worried. “Chen Che, forget it. In order to avoid harming your body, the gains do not make up for the losses.”
“It’s alright, it’s alright. I can still persevere.” Even though his face was covered in tears, Chen Che’s tone was still firm.
Lin Xi frowned in worry.
At the same time, she could not help but wonder if Chen Che really did not encounter any difficulties.
If not, why was he so frugal?
[I’m really impressed! You’re willing to give up your life just to get a free meal?]
[This pauper really shows how poor and stingy he is!]
[When it comes to the stingy ceiling, if Chen Che claims to be second, who would dare claim to be first?]
[Can this guy really hold on? Don’t go to the hospital!]
