“It’s fine. I’m just taking a little break.”
“I accidentally choked.”
Lin Yu picked up his iced black tea and took another sip.
It wasn’t just Little Chi who was keeping an eye on him.
His opponents farther away were doing the same.
The competitive-eating couple watched as Lin Yu stopped.
They both breathed a sigh of relief.
The husband, in particular, gulped down water, forcing the food down:
“Looks like that young man finally can’t eat anymore.”
“If he keeps going like this, even I’m going to be stuffed to the brim!”
“Phew…”
“It’s just an opening promotion for a new restaurant, yet we actually ran into an expert.”
The big-eating husband pulled another tissue from the table and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
His wife was already at the end of her rope.
She could only eat in small bites, trying her best to get down as much as possible.
From where she was sitting, she had a clear view of Lin Yu’s expression.
This…
This expression…
Did he really look like he couldn’t eat anymore?
Why did he seem so relaxed?
It was as if, the moment he decided to make a move, he could sweep the entire field at any time!
The big-eating wife couldn’t help reminding him:
“Honey, adding two more skewers probably won’t be enough to win, will it?”
“That young man looks like he’s only taking a break.”
“He doesn’t seem to have given up at all!”
The big-eating husband’s face twisted in agony. “…”
“Dear, I really can’t eat any more.”
“Whether he’s actually done or not, he’s stopped for now.”
“Let’s overtake him first, okay?”
No matter how many more skewers they added, wouldn’t he be the one who had to eat them in the end?
His wife had already reached her limit.
How much more could he possibly eat by himself?
The couple’s conversation was once again heard perfectly clearly by Lin Yu.
Sure enough, it was just as he had expected.
Thirty-seven skewers of barbecue!
Even for this competitive-eating couple, it was an enormous burden.
All he needed to do was apply just a little more pressure—not much…
And they would collapse immediately!
“Little Chi, there are nine minutes left.”
“Are you really okay handling these last five skewers?”
Lin Yu asked Chi Qingchi seriously.
Chi Qingchi immediately flashed an OK sign.
With food in her mouth, she couldn’t answer properly.
She could only nod repeatedly.
You’ve got to be kidding!
Little Lin had put in several times more effort than she had.
If she couldn’t even finish these last few skewers, what right did she have to call herself Little Lin’s teammate?
She was the one who had brought Little Lin here to compete today!
She had to give it her absolute focus, darn it~
After confirming that she was fine, Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction and rose from the table.
Chi Qingchi watched him suspiciously.
She had no idea what he was planning to do.
Only after she saw him walk toward the extra-ordering area did Chi Qingchi secretly give him a thumbs-up in her heart!
I get it…
He was preparing to deliver the “BOSS” the most despairing blow of all!
There was no need for any fancy tricks.
All he had to do was announce a number his opponent could never catch up to.
That alone would be enough to deliver the killing blow and end the match!
“Boss, we’d like to add seven more skewers to our order.”
Lin Yu showed the owner the number tag in his hand and raised the stakes once again.
The owner really knew how to stir things up.
“Seven more skewers!”
“Our restaurant’s youngest competitive-eating couple has added another seven skewers!”
“An astonishing total of forty-two skewers! Simply incredible!”
“Are there any other teams among our contestants who dare to challenge forty skewers or more?”
“…”
When the owner heard Lin Yu’s announcement, he immediately did his best to whip up the atmosphere.
When the big-eating wife had added seven more skewers, the crowd’s opinion had already begun to favor the heavyweight couple.
Everyone assumed that Lin Yu and Chi Qingchi wouldn’t dare to keep raising the stakes recklessly.
