She had complete confidence in her appetite, and she knew exactly where that confidence came from.
But Little Lin said he could eat ten skewers too?
Chi Qingchi blinked, taking quite a while to process that.
“What? You don’t believe in my abilities?”
Lin Yu spoke up indignantly.
Chi Qingchi, however, nodded honestly.
“Little Lin, you don’t have to compete with me.”
“We could start with fifteen skewers instead.”
“What if we can’t finish twenty...?”
“I’m not worried about paying!”
“I’m worried it might put too much pressure on you...”
It was obvious that Little Chi was being sincere.
Normally, Lin Yu barely ate anything at the apartment.
With his current physique, he could keep going for several days without eating, sleeping, or resting.
When he didn’t need to eat, there was naturally no reason for him to eat more than necessary.
But that didn’t mean he was actually incapable of eating!
Lin Yu took Little Chi’s hand and squeezed it tightly.
Then he said seriously, “Believe me, twenty skewers are only the beginning!”
“My appetite is actually much bigger than yours. You just don’t usually pay attention to me.”
Chi Qingchi continued sizing Lin Yu up, still half-convinced.
Since things had already been said to that point, Little Chi could only nod.
Even so, she still added, “Don’t force yourself if you can’t finish them. You still have me!”
As she said this, Little Chi patted her chest with an impressive display of feminine confidence.
Lin Yu: “...”
It was certainly a warmhearted reminder.
But no matter how he heard it, Lin Yu felt like he was being underestimated.
If he didn’t show off a little today, wouldn’t Little Chi laugh at him and call him a bird’s stomach from now on?
“Everyone taking part in the challenge, after you’ve finished taking pictures, please come inside.”
“First, register the number of skewers you wish to challenge. The competition will begin shortly.”
“If there are any...”
“...”
The proprietress came out at just the right moment to take charge, inviting the customers inside first.
Fortunately, it was 2014, and the livestreaming industry had yet to develop at such a rapid pace.
The era of livestreaming for the entire nation had not arrived yet.
Otherwise, an event this lively would certainly have attracted plenty of livestreamers.
Lin Yu and Little Chi followed the crowd into the restaurant.
As a newly opened barbecue restaurant, the interior was decorated with considerable style.
Lin Yu and Little Chi went to the registration desk and entered the number of skewers they planned to challenge.
When they received their number tags, Lin Yu took the opportunity to glance at the registration sheet and see what everyone else had written.
Most people were simply there for the fun of it, and had basically registered for ten skewers.
Those who actually wanted to compete for a ranking were mostly starting at fifteen.
Apart from Lin Yu and Little Chi, there were two other couples who had registered for twenty skewers right from the start.
If nothing unexpected happened, then as long as they defeated those two groups, the championship would be theirs.
However...
Just as Lin Yu and Little Chi were preparing to write down their number of skewers, a late-arriving couple abruptly created an upset!
“Proprietress, we’re challenging thirty skewers!”
The confident voice instantly drew everyone’s attention.
Lin Yu: “???”
Chi Qingchi: “???”
The two of them turned around at the same time.
Hiss!
What was this...?
The Half-Ton Couple?
A husband and wife who looked to be around thirty years old squeezed heavily into the crowd.
Lin Yu was already very tall.
Yet standing in front of the big brother behind him, he still appeared somewhat “petite.”
And it wasn’t just the big brother!
He looked the same way next to the big sister-in-law!
The big sister-in-law wasn’t particularly tall, but she weighed at least as much as two Little Chis.
“The Pingchuan’s Big-Eater Couple!”
“We’re done for...”
Chi Qingchi’s delicate face went pale as she muttered to herself.

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1.
