Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“What do you want?”

Mu Yao looked down at this person, not even willing to sit at the same table as him.

“Have a bowl of noodles with me.” Lu Jinchen cleared his throat and said seriously.

What?

Mu Yao thought she had heard wrong.

“Lu Jinchen, are you out of your mind?”

Mu Yao came to Lu Jinchen angrily.

Yet, he wanted her to eat noodles with him.

“Let’s talk after eating noodles.” Lu Jinchen straightened his body and said in an overbearing tone.

Mu Yao knew that he didn’t like to talk about work while eating.

Whatever.

People had to bow their heads under the eaves.

For Su Jin’s sake, she endured it.

Mu Yao sat opposite him reluctantly.

In a short while, two bowls of hot noodles were served.

And it was the very spicy kind of oily noodles.

The fragrance was overbearing.

Mu Yao picked up her chopsticks and took a small sip. A trace of spiciness slid across the tip of her tongue, along with the fragrance of the noodles.

It was the taste in his memory.

She was famished, so she began to eat in big mouthfuls.

Lu Jinchen kept looking at her and didn’t touch his chopsticks.

Mu Yao was sweating profusely from the spiciness but still enjoying it. Lu Jinchen saw Mu Yao become sweaty. He asked the boss for a bowl of clear soup.

In fact, he didn’t like to eat chili. He had never liked it since he was young.

But after they married, he had to eat chili for every meal.

When the clear soup was served, Lu Jinchen took a piece of tissue and handed it to Mu Yao.

“Eat slowly. No one’s snatching it from you.”

His tone was doting.

Mu Yao stopped eating. She glanced at the napkin in front of her and the slender fingers holding it.

A cloud of mist suddenly rose before her eyes.

The noodles in her mouth instantly lost their fragrance.

Mu Yao reached out for a tissue and wiped the corner of her mouth.

“Mr. Lu, you should eat quickly. I have to go back to work in the afternoon.”

Lu Jinchen kept the tissue and picked up his chopsticks to eat slowly.

He ate very slowly, with his usual elegance. Even when he ate the noodles, he did not make a sound.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window.

The two eating noodles inside the window were like a couple, unspeakably pleasing to the eye.

The shop owner noticed this and couldn’t help but take out his phone to record it.

An Yingying, who was outside the window, also saw this scene.

She quickly gave Bai Qiushui a call.

“Qiushui, I saw Mu Yao eating noodles with Lu Jinchen.”

“What?”

Bai Qiushui was shocked.

“They’re at the entrance of A University’s old campus. The two of them look like regular customers here.”

“Help me keep an eye on them. I’ll be right there.” Bai Qiushui hung up the phone and rushed out.

However, she was stopped by Shen Changqin.

“Where are you going? Why are you in a rush?”

“Mom, Mu Yao is eating noodles with Jinchen. I knew that Mu Yao didn’t come back with good intentions. She must have taken revenge on me for snatching Jinchen and wanted him back. Ever since Mu Yao came back, Jinchen has changed.”

Bai Qiushui was so anxious that she was about to cry. She wanted nothing more than to run over and give Mu Yao a few slaps.

Who told you to seduce and snatch my husband?

“They’re just having a meal together. Even if they slept together, you must show the temperament of the Bai family’s young lady. You’re not only Bai Zhenkai’s daughter but also the future daughter-in-law of the Lu family. Have you forgotten everything I’ve taught you?”

“But, Mom. Mu Yao is trying to hook up with Jinchen. Why do I still need to maintain my temperament?” Bai Qiushui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

But Shen Changqin refused to let her go out.

“You’re stupid! Don’t forget that there’s still Lu Qing in the Lu family. What can Mu Yao do with her around? Besides, you still have me.”

“Mom, do you have any good ideas?” Bai Qiushui was shocked.

“Just you wait. I’ll definitely make the little demon back off. ” Shen Changqin was determined to win.
