Chapter 1007: His Woman, He Must Spoil Her Like This
Cai Xiaotang stared blankly at the person in front of her.
Meeting his intense gaze, she felt a daze and thought that if they weren't in a restaurant, Li Xiao would probably have pounced on her already!
Her mind was instantly filled with R-rated imagery, and Cai Xiaotang hurriedly withdrew her gaze, feeling guilty.
She then saw the waiter walking over with a tray and finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Let's eat! I'm starving!"
She muttered in a flustered, low voice, and without waiting for the waiter to move, she took the plate down herself.
The little deer in her heart was also running wild with excitement.
Tsk...
What a miscalculation!
To think that she, Cai Xiaotang, had seen countless handsome men!
Why was it that every time, she was left completely defenseless by this old man, Li Xiao?
As expected, the more handsome a man is, the better he is at sweet-talking!
But... *cough*... she was actually quite happy listening to it.
As Cai Xiaotang thought this, she was about to lower her head to cut her steak when she saw that he had already cut a small piece and was holding the fork out to her mouth.
The same position as last time, the same scene.
Cai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, then immediately rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
Doing it again!
She complained in her heart, but the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up; she leaned forward slightly and ate the small piece of beef, the sweetness going straight to her heart.
After lunch, Cai Xiaotang was in high spirits and suddenly said she wanted to go shopping to pick up New Year's gifts for Mobai and the other two little ones.
Li Xiao naturally agreed, and the two went straight to a nearby mall, quickly picked out gifts suitable for each of them, bought a few other things, and returned fully loaded.
Coming out of the mall, there was a huge plaza right outside the door.
When the two had entered, they had seen that something seemed to be being set up on the plaza, as if there were an event.
Now that they were back out, they saw that many people had already gathered there, seemingly discussing something.
Cai Xiaotang pricked up her ears, immediately unleashed her "love for excitement" nature, and pulled Li Xiao straight over.
Arriving at the edge of the crowd, she realized it must be a Valentine's Day event hosted by the mall.
In the center of the venue, several huge tables were placed side by side, covered with gorgeous tablecloths and decorated with fresh flowers.
On the tablecloths were several large trays, each containing candles arranged in the shape of a heart, which were burning little by little.
"What... does this mean?"
Cai Xiaotang tugged at Li Xiao beside her, feeling a bit confused.
She then heard another girl nearby explain generously.
"It's a special event the mall is doing today, a candle-blowing contest. It's only open to men, everyone only gets one chance, and whoever blows out the most candles in one breath wins the biggest prize! Fifteen minutes per round! There's only one winner per round, and if it's a tie, both people count!"
"So that's it, thank you."
Cai Xiaotang understood and nodded thoughtfully.
She then saw a staff member walking over, smiling and asking if anyone wanted to participate in the contest.
Naturally, everyone loves to watch this kind of excitement.
Almost immediately, several men of various ages in the crowd raised their hands!
Cai Xiaotang immediately began watching with great interest.
Li Xiao, however, suddenly thought of something and asked the girl who had spoken earlier: "What is the biggest prize?"
"This..."
The girl was stunned for a moment, a flash of amazement crossing her eyes as she looked at Li Xiao, before she replied: "The organizers didn't say what it is, just that it's a mysterious grand prize. It's only just started, and no one has won the prize yet..."
"Hmm, thank you."
Li Xiao didn't ask any more questions and stood to the side, watching with interest as well.
The process of such a contest was not complicated.
It was nothing more than a matter of a single moment.
Following the order to begin, the few people who had raised their hands to compete immediately gave it their all.
Some blew a fierce breath, while others fanned the candles.
Unfortunately, because the candles were arranged in a heart shape rather than a straight line, they weren't that easy to extinguish; out of twenty-one candles in total, the person who did the best only blew out ten.
The first round ended, and the staff stepped forward to relight the candles.
After that round, more people were eager to try.
Cai Xiaotang was also watching with great interest, and when she saw someone who didn't even blow out a single candle, she couldn't help but laugh along with the surrounding audience.
Li Xiao's gaze, however, remained fixed on Cai Xiaotang.
Seeing her laughing happily, he laughed along with her.
In the past, he had never imagined that he would one day be "joining in the fun" so happily.
But now, it seemed that as long as he was with her, he was willing to do things he wouldn't have done before.
Li Xiao thought this, and suddenly couldn't help but raise his hand to ruffle her hair.
But before he could touch her—
"What are you doing! Trying to sneak an attack, aren't you!"
Cai Xiaotang keenly noticed the movement, grabbed his hand with a sense of triumph, and smiled with her eyes curved.
Li Xiao's mind stirred, and he suddenly had an idea.
In his eyes, a contest like this didn't even qualify as childish.
But if he were to take the very first first-place spot of the entire event, and then give that so-called "mystery grand prize" to her, letting her show off a bit and be envied by the people around her, that didn't seem like a bad idea, did it?
She would definitely be happy.
As long as it was something that made her happy, he was willing to spoil her.
Li Xiao thought this over, bent down, leaned into Cai Xiaotang's ear, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to know what that final mystery prize is?"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang instantly perked up and immediately understood what he meant.
"You have a way?"
Thinking of how high a certain person's "combat power" was, Cai Xiaotang suddenly felt a bit excited.
That's right!
How could she have forgotten about the "expert" right beside her!
If it were Li Xiao... it might just be possible!
"Are you going to try? There are only a few minutes left before this round ends, there should be one last wave!"
Cai Xiaotang looked at him with a face full of anticipation.
Seeing that she was truly interested, Li Xiao smiled and turned his head to look in the direction of the table.
The previous round had already ended, and the staff were in the middle of relighting the extinguished candles.
The staff also announced that the first round of the competition was about to end, and there were only six spots left for participants.
Li Xiao unhurriedly raised his hand and stepped forward.
He already possessed an outstanding aura, and having stood there whispering with Cai Xiaotang for quite a while, he had already attracted the attention of quite a few people.
Now that he had stepped out, it immediately drew even more hushed discussions from the young girls nearby.
"Wow! That handsome guy stepped out!"
"Ah... it must be so happy to be his girlfriend!"
"He looks like he's really capable!"
The surrounding discussions drifted bit by bit into Cai Xiaotang's ears.
Not wanting her expression to look too carried away, Cai Xiaotang deliberately pressed her lips together tightly.
Yet, the corners of her lips still accidentally revealed a hint of a smile.
Immediately after, she heard Li Xiao confirm with the staff, "The rule is that no matter what method is used, the candles must be extinguished all at once, right?"
