Lifestyle Godly Rich Game

Now, Chen Xi shamelessly came to the dining table and pushed a bowl of rice with a little less rice to Lin Zhao, saying, "Ahem, well... I've been on a business trip recently, and I'm so tired. I haven't had a proper meal for several days. Plus, Lin-di-di made me a meal, so I should eat more to replenish myself."

Ahem! This lie... isn't it a bit too clumsy?

After saying that, Chen Xi glanced at Lin Zhao furtively, feeling a little guilty.

Having been conquered by her appetite and her stomach by her stomach, she no longer possessed the haughty air of her former fairy-like self.

At this moment, Lin Zhao also saw Chen Xi's rare and adorable appearance and felt a strange sense of comfort in her heart.

This isn't the kind of lavish spending that earns you the envy and admiration of others; it's a different kind of comfort.

However, Lin Zhao also knew that whether it was the pleasure of spending money or the comfort of conquering an older girl like Chen Xi with her cooking skills, it was all brought to her by the Godly Rich Game.

Although the basic daily consumption of 400,000 to 500,000 in the game is not small, this scene also shows that the expensive has its value!

Amidst these reflections, he picked up his chopsticks and began eating with Chen Xi, who was holding a large bowl overflowing with rice.

During the meal, Chen Xi, completely captivated by the delicious food, kept exclaiming, "It's so delicious!"

Then, when she started eating the braised fish, she was completely moved by its deliciousness and exclaimed, "My God, this braised fish is so delicious! The taste is amazing! To be honest, Lin Zhao, how did you manage to hide such superb cooking skills? I never knew before!"

Chen Xi felt that she had eaten at many high-end restaurants in her life, but she had never eaten such delicious braised fish.

The fish meat...it practically melts in your mouth.

The fish was cooked to perfection, but the flavor remained. The skin, in particular, was so tender that it practically slid right into your stomach when you sucked it in your mouth; it was a true delight to eat.

So while enjoying the delicious food, she couldn't help but look up and steal a glance at Lin Zhao beside her.

I don't know why, but after only a few days of business trip, I suddenly felt like I didn't recognize the boy I'd been sharing an apartment with for several years.

Her figure seems to be more proportionate than before.

My face shape looks better than before.

Even his demeanor has become much more composed than before.

"Hmm, so this is what it means to have a son grow up? It seems the little brat from before is gradually becoming a handsome young man?"

Finally, after secretly watching for a while, Chen Xi somehow came up with this thought.

After she appeared, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

After all, Lin Zhao had no relation to him; he was just a roommate. How could he possibly have the idea that "a son is growing up in my family"?

But thoughts are never based on facts, especially for older girls who love to fantasize.

So now Chen Xi suddenly feels that if she and Lin Zhao, this little boy, were to get together in the future, it wouldn't be so bad.

Although Lin Zhao is poor, without a house or car, and lacking education and skills, she is quite pretty. Plus, with such amazing cooking skills, even if she has to work to support her family in the future, it would be a very enjoyable thing to come back and watch a handsome young man cook a heartwarming meal for her.

Lost in this fantasy, Chen Xi inexplicably said to Lin Zhao beside her, "By the way, Lin Zhao... do you have a girlfriend?"

"Huh? What is that?" Lin Zhao was clearly a little confused by this sudden question.

"Ah... I mean, you have such great cooking skills, you can't let them go to waste. You definitely have to cook for your girlfriend. If you don't have a girlfriend, I... for the sake of the food... I wouldn't mind making do with something like this."

Chen Xi ultimately didn't reveal what was on her mind, only offering this subtle hint.

In fact, she didn't have much confidence when she made those suggestive remarks.

Because she also knew that the image she had projected in the past had indeed been somewhat off-putting to some people.

The fact that Lin Zhao didn't talk to her much in the past is the best example of this.

As for those Mi Meng quotes, Chen Xi herself knows better than anyone that they are brainless motivational quotes.

But she was still willing to browse it again and again. There was no particular reason; she just wanted to have something to hold onto in her heart and a belief to support her so that she wouldn't have to give in to this cruel life.

After all, a woman who is nearly thirty years old and still unmarried in an inland city like Zhengzhou would be considered a monster!

Seriously, you'll be treated like a monster, pointed at and stared at with incredibly strange looks.

So she wanted to use these quotes to hypnotize herself, to tell herself not to compromise or settle, because settling and compromising are the greatest irresponsibility towards herself.

But deep down, doesn't she yearn for love? Doesn't she yearn for marriage? Doesn't she long for a man to always be by her side?

But now she suddenly realizes that after being single for so many years, she doesn't even have the courage to fall in love again.

Chen Xi, who usually acts like a proud fairy, is actually feeling incredibly guilty inside, and even starts eating to cover up her insecurity.

Lin Zhao was completely dumbfounded when he heard Chen Xi's words.

Huh? What... what the heck?

Lin Zhao's emotional intelligence wasn't low, so after a while, she was able to roughly guess the meaning behind Chen Xi's words.

But putting aside the age gap between them, he knew that they could never complement each other in terms of personality alone.

Therefore, Lin Zhao thought about it and decided not to express anything, nor did she want to express anything, nor was she able to express anything. So, just like Chen Xi, she lowered her head and focused on eating.

This immediately made the atmosphere at the dinner table turn cold.

As for Chen Xi, who was standing to the side, she saw that Lin Zhao did not respond. A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she lowered her head and did not say anything more.

However, because the food was quite good, the two of them ate quite well. They finished all three dishes: braised fish, green vegetables and tofu, and steamed shrimp.

They even ate half a pot of rice, leaving only the bottom.

After clearing the table, Chen Xi watched Lin Zhao turn and leave without hesitation, heading towards the bedroom, and couldn't help but sigh with a touch of self-mockery.

She never imagined that after all these years of believing she was uncompromising and unyielding, even the young boy she had shared an apartment with for several years wouldn't be interested in her.

This left Chen Xi with an indescribable, yet intensely overwhelming sense of loss.

In an instant, the values ​​she had upheld for many years suddenly wavered.

.......

Lin Zhao, who had returned to the bedroom, was of course unaware of Chen Xi's current feelings.

However, just as he lay down on the bed, wanting to rest and relieve the fatigue from today's high-intensity workout, a ghostly blue light and shadow appeared out of nowhere in front of him.
