Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

The two of them ate lunch at a highway stop restaurant. The food at the restaurant there wasn't ideal, but when Mu Tongrui caught the scent wafting over from the stall next to it selling grilled sausages and oden, her stomach immediately growled.

The moment they exited the restaurant, she couldn't stop staring at the sausages turning in the oven.

Fu Lingye lowered his gaze to look at her. “You wanna eat that?”

Mu Tongrui nodded. “Yeah. I used to eat it often when I was in school. I miss it.”

Although she bought two to share, Fu Lingye refused. Mu Tongrui didn't press him, figuring that he didn't like this kind of street food anyway.

Fu Lingye asked the lady boss for the cost, and she replied, “Five for a stick.”

Fu Lingye took out a hundred from his wallet and handed it to the lady boss. She frowned and asked, “Do you have spare change? Or online payment?”

Fu Lingye steered clear of online payment as he found it unsafe. It made sense considering the riches he had hidden away.

Mu Tongrui took out her phone. “I'll do it.”

However, Fu Lingye threw the hundred onto the table and said, “I'll have twenty of those.”
