I Save The World In A Doomsday Text Game Chapter 235-2: Endless Strength, The Envoy from Yun Capital
“What do you want to eat?”
Lin Xun handed her the phone. “My treat. Don’t be shy.”
After joining the Thunder Tribulation squad, his salary in the Intelligence Division had risen from one hundred thousand a month to two hundred thousand.
An annual inco of two million was already sothing ordinary workers could only dream of.
The only reason he still lived in a rented apartnt was that Lin Xun was too lazy to bother moving.
He was a single guy, why live sowhere huge? When he finally found soone, he could move then.
Lin Xun waited while Little White ordered. In the end, the girl hesitated for a long ti before finally picking just two bowls of pork wontons.
He couldn’t help but shake his head. As an Apostle in the Ard Division, how could she have the strength to fight hostile organizations eating so little?
He picked up the phone again and ordered a heap of dishes, pan-fried dumplings, fish cakes, shepherd’s purse rice, placing the order and paying in one go.
“Little White, do you usually only eat that little?”
Hearing this, Lu Caiyi looked a bit embarrassed. Her appetite was certainly more than that.
The improvents to her physical constitution brought by the cursed ga also caused an Apostle’s consumption to increase.
With her tabolism speeding up, of course her appetite had grown.
Seeing Little White looking hesitant, Lin Xun knew she was still feeling reserved.
Co on, was he really going to let Lu Caiyi go hungry the one ti he treated her?
“Little White, let’s make a bet. Whoever loses has to agree to do one thing for the other. How about it?”
“W-What are we betting on?”
“Of course, it’s who can eat more. Don’t say I’m bullying a girl… How about this: for fairness, one bowl you eat counts as two for . Deal?”
Lu Caiyi looked at the man trying so hard to get her to eat more, sighed softly, and couldn’t help complaining in her heart, no wonder he’s still a single dog, there’s a reason for everything. Who competes with a girl over how much they can eat?
She couldn’t help recalling her earlier decision to ‘eat Lin Xun poor,’ and before she knew it, she nodded without thinking.
Lin Xun smiled slightly, confident of victory.
And so the duel between the two began in earnest…
The Longren wontons were thin-skinned and stuffed full of at, generously topped with shredded egg, dried shrimp, pork slivers, pickled vegetables, and seaweed.
Each plump, white wonton looked exquisite, not sticking together, floating in the savory broth like little blooming flowers.
Before eating the wontons, you had to first sip the broth. The instant the soup hit your tongue, an explosion of rich flavor burst forth, your mouth filling with the salty freshness of the pork and dried shrimp.
After the first sip of soup, it was ti for the wontons themselves.
The wrappers were thin as cicada wings. Through them, you could clearly see the pale pink at inside. One light bite, and the tender skin and fragrant, juicy filling lted in your mouth.
Of course, that was how normal custors would eat.
Under the stunned gazes of the other diners, the man and woman sitting in the corner rapidly stacked up bowl after empty bowl of wontons.
The man could scoop up several wontons in one spoonful, finishing a bowl in just a few bites.
The girl ate very daintily, but oddly enough, her speed in demolishing wontons was no slower than the man’s.
The two of them kept adding more orders, piling up over a dozen empty bowls.
Anyone who didn’t know would have thought they were livestreaming a competitive eating show…
The young guys who had been thinking about asking for the girl’s WeChat quietly backed away, losing their nerve.
After a long while, Lin Xun clutched his bulging stomach, staring blankly at the wontons in the bowl without lifting his spoon again.
He simply couldn’t eat another bite.
anwhile, the girl beside him was still calmly and unhurriedly eating wontons.
“Stop, stop, stop… Little White, I give up. Don’t stuff yourself sick.”
Lin Xun couldn’t figure out how this delicate, gentle-looking girl could actually eat more than he could.
It was true Apostles could eat more than ordinary people, but co on, they weren’t cows. How could she pack it away like this?
Lu Caiyi used a little spoon to finish the broth, elegantly pulled out a napkin, and dabbed her mouth.
When she heard Lin Xun’s words, her face flushed a bit red.
The girl looked at the man’s face, like a big question mark, and leaned close to his ear, helplessly whispering, “Actually, my soul talent is called Endless Strength, so…”
So her consumption was even greater than a typical Apostle’s, wasn’t it?
Lin Xun felt like crying.
If he’d known, why would he have tried to compete with Lu Caiyi? He’d just humiliated himself.
“A bet is a bet. Little White, go ahead, what’s your request?”
“…Um, I haven’t thought of one yet.”
Lu Caiyi furrowed her brows, looking like she was pondering hard.
Then she glanced at her phone. All at once her expression turned flustered, and she blurted out, “Crap, I’m going to be late for work!”
Lin Xun watched the girl leap to her feet in a rush, apologizing over and over. She quickly said goodbye, then darted out of the wonton shop like the wind.
He picked up his phone to check the date. It was a crazy thursday.
“Is the Ard Division’s attendance really that strict…? Looks like the Intelligence Division really is more comfortable.”
Then he thought about it, he hadn’t clocked in at the office for a long ti. Skipping work all the ti was a bit unfair to his lady boss paying his salary.
Lin Xun left the wonton shop and pedaled off toward the office.
His phone suddenly buzzed with a new ssage.
