A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 114

220... 225... 230... 235...

People around see that Louis has held on to 260 seconds, and they are more excited than they are doing sports themselves. Louis looks relaxed and kept his eyes fixed on Lily's side.

400... 410... 419...

When they count to 420, Louis still holds on. People around are cheering him up, but Louis just glances at the timer. He then loosens his hands when he sees that time is up.

Lily hurries over and takes his hand. His palm is red. "Are you all right?"

"Yes, it is easy."

The boss brings Louis the big whale from behind the booth and boasts, "Boy! You're the second one to stick it out in all the years I've been running my stall, except for the couple four years ago."

Louis takes the whale and smiles. "My wife likes it, so I'll try it."

Lily feels her ears are hot.

This big blue whale is nearly three meters long. Louis, afraid of Lily being crushed by the whale, carries it on his shoulder and holds her hand. They are so outstanding in the crowd.

"Is there anything else you want to play with, dear?"

"No, let's go back."

It's Louis's birthday, but it is Lily who is playing at the amusement park. Lily feels embarrassed and drives Louis to Daisy's house. The big whale fills the whole back seat of the car.

Daisy is about to go to bed when she opens for Lily and gets shocked. "Why are you here?" she asks. When Daisy turns around, she sees Louis standing behind Lily. He looks so beautiful that she is even more stunned.

"It's his birthday today, so I bring him over for a bowl of marinated noodles." says Lily and then she introduces Daisy to Louis, "Mr. Louis, this is my mother."

Louis makes a polite bow and greets, "Mom, sorry to bother you."

Lily is stunned.

After a moment of silence, Daisy nods to him and opens the door for Lily and Louis to come in. She whispers to Lily, "The son-in-law looks better than Jason. I like him."

"This is my boss, mom, don’t make mistake."

"Why did he call me mother?"

Lily can't explain that because "he's drunk and gets a little silly", as Daisy doesn’t believe it. So, she skips the topic and pushes Daisy to the kitchen, "Mom, your marinade noodle is most delicious. Let me help you.”

Louis sits properly in the living room.

The phone rings in his trouser pocket. Someone sends a video to Louis. He thinks for a moment and then connects, and then a young man with a pony tail appears on the screen.

"Happy birthday, Louis! Leigh grins as he catches a glimpse of Louis's surroundings and raises his eyebrow. "Where are you, Louis? The house is old."

Louis smiles. "At my mother's."

“What!? Louis, who is your mother?" Leigh is horrified.

And Louis doesn't look right. He looks very kind and good. Leigh calls Justin over in a hurry.

"Justin, do you think Louis is out of order?"

Justin moves the camera over to his side, stares at Louis on the video, and asks, "Did you drink wine this evening, Louis?"

"Yes, brandy."

"Brandy is of high degree, so it is normal he would be like this." Justin says, but he also concerns about where Louis is. "Louis, where are you now?"

"Didn’t I say that I am at my mother’s?"

Louis frowns and looks annoyed, but remains patient. "Mom and my dear are making marinade noodle for me."

Leigh says quickly, "Louis, you are single. When did you have..."

Justin slaps him before he could finish the sentence.
