My Wife is My Life! Chapter 258
After they each played their roles as a girlfriend, Zhang Lala walked up to Ji Qingqing and laughed. “I’ve lost. During the afternoon I’ll treat you and Lu Lixing to a meal, though I don’t know if I’ll have the pleasure to do so.”
Saying that she smiled and turned her gaze to Lu Lixing.
Lu Lixing raised his eyebrows and looked towards Ji Qingqing.
The joy on Ji Qingqing’s face hadn’t stopped. She raised her head with her eyes shining. “Just now when you entered the court to play basketball, I made a bet with Lala. We betted on who would score first between you and Lu Yao. Whoever loses would have to treat a meal. Did you know? I even thought about which restaurant to go to for the meal. I didn’t expect you would be able to turn the tide and win!”

Ji Qingqing replied, “... It’s talent!”
Afterwards, to show their appreciation to the couple of high school students who gave the court to them for their game, Lu Lixing and Lu Yao partnered up and competed with the group of young high school students. The two ‘uncles’ were fired up; they played till the high school students were panting heavily and only left after giving them a brutally hard time.
The vicinity near to the school were all spots that students frequented. There weren’t any high-class restaurants. Furthermore, school was out so the food street basically had no one there.
Ji Qingqing and Zhang Lala bought quite a large amount of street food. They ignored their image in front of the camera and began to stuff themselves. Ji Qingqing was currently eating a BBQ skewer. It tasted good and the meat was delicious. She subconsciously moved over and faced Lu Lixing. “I haven’t eaten the street food near the school for a very long time. You probably also haven’t eaten it before, right? Have a taste?”
Lu Lixing wasn’t that interested in that sort of street food but Ji Qingqing had moved over and he wasn’t intending to make her lose face too. Just as he was about to open his mouth and bite it, Ji Qingqing suddenly realized that they were currently in the program’s live-stream. She retracted back the BBQ skewer then bit, chewed, and swallowed it herself.
Lu Lixing didn’t get to bite it and bit the air instead. He looked at Ji Qingqing’s moving cheeks and laughed helplessly.
The place Zhang Lala wanted to treat a meal at was said to be a nearby restaurant that was the most popular amongst the students and every afternoon it would definitely be a full house. But today there weren’t many people. The lady boss sat at the shop’s entrance eating melon seeds as she casually peeled a large plate of melon seed shells. Seeing a couple of people pass by, she warmly welcomed them inside to eat.
“You all are celebrities, right? Quickly come in and have a meal here. After eating my restaurant's food, you’ll get more popular day by day!”
Ji Qingqing laughed. “Lady boss, if students eat your restaurant food, would they be able to all get into university?”
“Of course!”
Their group of people entered the restaurant.

“Not as sweet as you.”
Ji Qingqing’s smile stiffened on her face.
Wasn’t that the chocolate she shot two months ago together with Lu Yao?
Lu Yao’s expression remained the same, but at this moment seeing this in front of Lu Lixing made it seem somewhat awkward.
Lu Lixing lightly glanced at the television. Surprisingly, he didn’t show much emotion and slowly browsed through the menu.
After an excruciating wait for the to end, it actually repeated again. The dining area also wasn’t big. It was as if those words ‘Is it sweet?’ were echoing all around. Ji Qingqing had a very strong urge to switch off the television but with regards to this very act of ‘covering up and exposing herself in the process,’ she decided to hold it in after thinking it over for a bit.
T/N: 此地无银三百两 is an idiom where a person buries silver in the ground and puts up a signboard in that specific area stating:”This plot of land has no silver.” Doing so he is blatantly exposing himself by attempting to cover up with the signboard.
