Chapter 922: 922
It had been a long time since she last entered the kitchen; thus, she was unaccustomed to it . Naturally, her culinary skills could not match Youyou’s, but the taste of her food was still digestible .
Mu Yazhe was taking a nap while hugging a pillow when she finally placed the noodles and sautéed veggies on the table .
She approached him gingerly, but as she saw the tiredness on his face, she could not bring herself to disturb him . In the end, she still gently woke him up .
“The noodles are ready!”
He was startled awake . For a split moment, his eyes were sharp . However, as his vision adjusted and reflected Yun Shishi’s happy smile, his gaze gradually filled with warmth, and he returned to his unguarded and peaceful state .
She was taken aback .
Earlier, in that split second when he just opened his eyes, there was so much coldness and murderous intent radiating off them .
It was frightening .
Seeing the change in her complexion, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
“Your gaze earlier, for a second… it was unnerving!” she admitted honestly .
“Did I scare you?”
“… Yes . ” She nodded .
“I received military training in the past . Even when we were asleep, we must always be on guard,” he explained .
“Oh! It’s like that, huh . ”
She dropped the matter . “The noodles are done . Eat them quickly before they turn cold, or else they won’t taste good anymore!”
He sat at the table . Seeing that the so-called ‘noodles’ were just instant noodles, his eyes got filled with disappointment .
“Instant noodles?”
He snorted .
Dumb woman . Did she think that something like this would appease him?
“Is this not okay? We only have instant noodles at home . Just bear with it; it’s better than being starved . ”
The man was still feeling indignant, but he was indeed famished . Therefore, he did not fuss further and just picked up his chopsticks to begin eating .
He tasted a spoonful . Eh? It seems that the taste isn’t that bad .
This was not his first time eating instant noodles . The first time he had eaten this, it had also been cooked by her .
It was just that the taste that first time was barely satisfactory . This time, the taste had gone up a notch .
“Your skills have improved . ”
He let out a compliment that could not really count as one .
She was speechless . Looking at him silently, the corners of her eyes twitched .
Is there a skill needed for cooking instant noodles?
…
Even idiots can do it .
She did not dare to say those words aloud because she knew that he was that idiot .
He definitely did not know how to cook instant noodles .
A man with such a high status never had to worry about food or clothes . Every detail in his life had been taken care of by others . Why would he ever need to step into a place called kitchen?
With one mouthful after another, he quickly finished his noodles . However, he did not even make a sound .
From a young age, he was taught about the restrictions and doctrines of the upper-class society . At the dining table, they were never permitted to make a sound .
He sat as straight as a pen, the hand holding his chopsticks was slender and fair . Even though he was eating something as inexpensive as instant noodles, he still maintained an elegant demeanor as seen in the higher-ups in society .
The air of nobility was seeping out of his bones between his every gesture .
She sat across him with her head propped on her hand, watching him eat mouthful after mouthful . Soon, the bowl of noodles was gone .
“Is there more?”
He raised his head to ask .
She lifted her eyes, astonished and stared dolefully at him . “Is it… Is it not enough?”
“Not enough . ”
She cooked three packets of noodles, yet those were still not enough to fill him .
…
This man had an appetite that was disproportionate to his slim body .
It did not make any scientific sense .
She headed back into the kitchen and cooked three more packets of noodles, quickly carrying the big bowl of noodles out and placing it in front of him .
With one mouthful after another again, he polished off the bowl of noodles completely .
