This little thing had generously agreed to treat him to a meal, but in the end, she had brought him all the way to a small noodle shop near her school.
Seeing that Li Yan did not respond, Qiao Mu smiled and handed the menu to the waiter. â Iâve already ordered a lot of dishes anyway. Iâll order more later if thereâs not enough! â
The facilities in the small noodle restaurant were very simple. Li Yanâs tall figure could not hide his noble temperament as he sat there. He was a little out of place in this small restaurant.
Qiao Mu rested her chin on her hands and smiled at Li Yan while waiting for the dishes to be served. â Uncle, the food here is delicious, especially the river snails. Theyâre my favorite. You should be happy that Iâm sharing such delicious food with you. Why are you pulling a long face? You donât even appreciate it! â
Li Yan looked at the little oneâs happy and relaxed expression and asked helplessly, ââDo you often come here to eat?â
âThatâs right. Youâll know how delicious it is in a while.â
Qiao Mu was brimming with confidence. Very soon, the beef noodles and a few side dishes were served.
There were spicy stir-fried river snails, skewers, fried mushrooms, and home-cooked cold dishes.
Li Yan looked at these things that did not have much nutrition and finally understood why this little thing was so thin. It would be strange if it could get fat if it ate these things often!
Qiao Mu enthusiastically added a piece of fried mushroom for Li Yan. â Uncle, try this. Itâs fried mushroom. Itâs delicious! â
Mushroom?
Li Yan glanced at it and frowned.
Li Yan hated mushrooms the most. Whether it was the taste or the appearance, they were not appetizing.
He almost never touched it, and the people around him knew his habits and would not order dishes with mushrooms in front of him, but Qiao Mu did not know that.
When he raised his head, he saw Qiao Mu looking at him with great anticipation, waiting for him to taste it. His furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and he picked it up as if nothing had happened and put it into his mouth.
âIs it delicious?â Qiao Mu blinked her big eyes and asked.
Under Qiao Muâs watchful gaze, Li Yan chewed slowly. He picked up a cup of water and took a sip before nodding. â It tastes pretty good. â
Immediately after, Qiao Mu grinned very happily and even more enthusiastically added a few pieces of fried mushrooms for Li Yan. â Uncle, if you like to eat, then eat more! I also like to eat this!â
The corner of Li Yanâs eyes twitched as he said calmly, ââlf you like it, then eat more.â
âItâs okay. Itâs my treat today. I donât care! â
It was rare for Qiao Mu to be so confident in front of Li Yan.
Actually, Qiao Mu chose to eat here to save money. She also thought that those expensive dishes were not worth mentioning in front of Li Yan. She might as well bring him to a place he had never eaten before and eat some fresh food.
As expected, it was to his liking!
After the meal, Qiao Mu ate and drank to her heartâs content. She then called the waiter to pay the bill.
The waiter handed the bill to Qiao Mu and said with a smile, ââ Itâs a total of 78 yuan. Iâll charge you 75 yuan. â
Qiao Mu nodded and paid. Then, she proudly said to Li Yan, ââUncle, isnât it satisfying to eat such an affordable meal?â
Li Yanâs lips curled up. â Yes, youâre not even an auntie yet, but you already know how to save money for me. You know how to be frugal. Not bad. â
Qiao Mu blushed. She was trying to save money for herself, alright? How shameless!
Li Yan held Qiao Muâs hand as they walked out of the noodle shop and looked down at her. ââHowever, itâs good to know how to save money, but I hope that next time youâll treat me to a meal to thank me. Donât act so cheap.â Qiao Mu pouted.. â This is my sincerity! You canât use money to measure it!â
