This exceptional culinary skill, however, cost him some of his happiness.
Watching the male and female leads behaving respectfully towards each other in the private room, he sighed again.
"What's wrong with this male lead! Why doesn't he seize the opportunity and act when he should?"
126. What's a few coins thrown in your face? That's an honor!
Inside the private room.
Lin Chen listened to Su Qiaoman sing with a blank expression.
They just established the rules.
He gave Su Qiaoman five hundred yuan for singing a song.
It has to be said that Su Qiaoman's singing voice is not bad, but the problem is that she doesn't know many songs.
After singing "Sun Never Sets" and then a Jay Chou song, that was the end of it.
Just as she was considering whether or not to sing the theme song for Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, Lin Chen stopped her.
Why did you come to work in a place like this?
Lin Chen still asked the question that concerned him the most.
It wasn't that he had any unusual feelings for Su Qiaoman, but rather that his guilt was getting the better of him.
The thought that the Lin family was the culprit behind Su Qiaoman's homelessness would give him a temporary bout of angina.
Su Qiaoman sighed and said, "Because I'm not old enough and I don't have much work experience, I can only do this kind of part-time job."
Lin Chen responded with an "Oh".
He lowered his head and took another sip of coffee.
That's really tragic.
However, it has no direct connection to him.
In his view, he had done more than enough to stop the debt collectors from harassing her.
The person Su Qiaoman likes now is not him.
If he helps too much, he'll be seen as a sycophant, which would hurt his self-esteem.
His pride could not be broken for a woman who didn't like him!
Su Qiaoman gripped the microphone and sighed, "Brother Lin Chen, please let me sing a few more songs for you, okay?"
Lin Chen waved his hand.
"Stop singing, I think I've heard enough."
It's just the same few lyrics over and over again. No matter how good they are, you'll get tired of them eventually.
Lin Chen had already lost interest.
He stood up, preparing to leave the private room.
Su Qiaoman's heart tightened: She had only earned 1,200 yuan tonight!
No, we can't let this human ATM get away!
"Brother Lin Chen, since you don't want to listen to songs, then I'll play dice with you."
Lin Chen stopped in his tracks.
He turned around and glanced at Su Qiaoman.
"You can play dice?"
"Ah."
Su Qiaoman nodded and picked up the dice that were placed under the coffee table.
If we can please this human ATM, we can at least get him to cough up two thousand dollars tonight.
Then, there's a way to resolve the Alipay issue.
……
"Tsk, they've started playing dice."
Lu Chengzhou couldn't help but facepalm at the bizarre turn of events.
Why is the plot getting further and further off track?
What happened to the table-flipping scene from the original story?!
Where's the promised wall slam?!
Where's the promised fury?!
It's all gone, nothing at all.
Su Qiaoman's dice-playing skills were taught to her by her unreliable father.
In the original novel, she revealed this skill in a small scene where she shielded Lin Chen from drinking, which is at least two hundred chapters away from the current plot point.
At that plot point, Su Qiaoman used this technique to kill her opponent without leaving a trace, successfully rescued the drunken Lin Chen, won a lot of Lin Chen's favor, and almost got on base.
Now, Su Qiaoman is using this technique to play with Lin Chen. What is she trying to do?
Seeing Lin Chen pull out a wad of banknotes,
Lu Chengzhou couldn't help but feel a little worried for Lin Chen.
"Is Su Qiaoman trying to fleece Lin Chen?"
It’s over.
The plot has completely gone astray.
……
Just ten minutes later, the stack of banknotes that Lin Chen had initially received now belonged to Su Qiaoman.
Lin Chen's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
"Su Qiaoman, I didn't know you could do this. That's pretty impressive."
"Brother Lin Chen, it was you who let me win, not because I'm better."
Su Qiaoman feigned modesty.
Lin Chen became even angrier.
His pride prevented him from admitting his defeat.
He desperately wanted to win back his losses.
However, the cash in my pocket was almost gone.
If he continued playing with her, he would have to pay by scanning a QR code.
"Brother Lin Chen, it's getting late, you should go back and rest early."
"No, I'm going to beat you tonight."
Su Qiaoman's strategy of retreating to advance was remarkably effective.
Lin Chen got carried away on the spot.
With a bang, he slammed the phone onto the table.
"Come on, keep going. If you're so capable, win all my money."
Su Qiaoman was overjoyed.
However, her face still wore that standard obedient, innocent expression.
Even though she had already won a fortune, she still didn't get carried away.
She knew Lin Chen's personality very well.
If she really wins all of his money, she definitely won't be able to leave this private room unscathed.
Therefore, at the appropriate time, she should prepare to release the water.
Tonight, all she needs to do is secure the win of this stack of banknotes in front of her.
……
Another ten minutes later.
Two more banknotes appeared in front of Lin Chen.
His expression improved a lot.
The smile has returned.
"It seems your skills are still not very good, Su Qiaoman."
He threw the two winning banknotes at Su Qiaoman's face.
"How does it feel to lose five games in a row?"
Su Qiaoman lowered her head, feigning defeat, and clutched the hem of her skirt.
Actually, deep down he's a big fan of love!
I originally only planned to earn two thousand yuan, but now I've earned more than five times that amount!
Is there anything else you're not satisfied with?
So what if money gets shoved in your face? That's an honor!
Modo Modo!
Seeing that she was silent, Lin Chen's smile grew even brighter.
He snorted coldly, grabbed his coat, and got up to leave.
He stopped in his tracks when he reached the door.
"You should quit this job as soon as possible. Everyone at school knows I'm pursuing you. If you dare to embarrass me, even if you're a girl, I won't be polite to you."
