722 A Bowl of Noodles

“I’m not making fun of you, Madam. I just think you’re very cute.” The smile in Ji Yan’s eyes deepened, and his deep eyes turned into a gentle ocean. He ruffled the top of Shen Hanxing’s head and said gently, “Madam, you’re hungry. Do you want to have some supper?”

Shen Hanxing clutched her stomach and nodded obediently after a brief pause. “I want to eat.” She had only drunk wine at the banquet and was indeed hungry now, but… She glanced in the direction of the kitchen and sighed. “Is Sister Chen asleep? If that’s the case, I guess I’ll jut have some fruit.”

Even though the Ji Family was rich and powerful, the Ji siblings were not the kind of people who liked to put on a show. Apart from Sister Chen and Butler Sun, the Ji Family did not have any permanent servants. At this time, Shen Hanxing was too embarra.s.sed to wake Sister Chen up to make supper for herself, but she was too lazy to do it herself after drinking.

“How about a bowl of noodles?” Ji Yan’s lips curled up. “Meat sauce noodles?” He rarely smiled, so much so that even a slight smile was enough to make people extremely stunned.

Shen Hanxing was stunned for a moment. She nodded her head in a daze, and her body suddenly felt lighter. Ji Yan placed her on her slippers and stood up. He then rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the kitchen. “Madam, please wait for a moment. It will be ready soon.”

So… was Ji Yan going to cook supper for her personally? Shen Hanxing’s eyes widened in disbelief. She hurriedly put on her slippers and followed behind him. “Mr. Ji can cook?” How could that be? He had been living in the lap of luxury since he was young, how could he know how to cook?

“I’ll let Madam taste my cooking.” Ji Yan nodded, washed and cut the vegetables skillfully, and then boiled the oil. He only wore a white shirt at home, which set off his upright posture, making him look n.o.ble and cold. But now, he was standing in the kitchen, letting the steam drown out his eyes and brows, and cooking noodles for her with smooth movements. Shen Hanxing looked at Ji Yan’s familiar and busy figure. Suddenly, she felt that her soul, which had been drifting away after drinking, had landed firmly in Ji Yan’s hands.

“Mr. Ji.” Shen Hanxing pursed her lips and chuckled. She looked at Ji Yan with sparkling eyes. “I also want a poached egg.” When she was still young, she always starved very quickly, probably because she was still growing. When she woke up in the middle of the night, she would restrain herself by biting the blanket in her bed when she was sad. As a poor child, she adulted early and lived in the slums with her grandmother. Shen Hanxing became sensible very early on and knew that it was not easy for her grandmother to raise her. She was already very tired in the day to make money, so she did not dare and could not bear to wake her grandmother up at night to cook for her. So she resisted it and bit the quilt, imagining herself eating a big bowl of hot noodles with white and round lotus-wrapped eggs in it. She would take a bite and the fragrance of the eggs would spread. This was once the most delicious taste she would look forward to in the middle of the night when she was young. She often fell asleep hungry with this thought. Later, when she grew up, she didn’t wake up from hunger for a long time, and she didn’t remember that she once wanted to eat a bowl of noodles so badly. Shen Hanxing’s eyes welled up with tears as she thought about this. She suddenly felt an endless sense of antic.i.p.ation for the bowl of noodles that was still in the pot.

“Alright,” Ji Yan answered calmly without turning his head. He then turned to Shen Hanxing and said, “There’s braised beef that Sister Chen made by herself in the fridge. Do you want to add some?”

“I want it, I want three big pieces!” Shen Hanxing’s smile was bright as she nodded without hesitation.

Ji Yan’s actions were not only skilled, but the noodles he made were also full of color, smell, and taste. When placed on the table, it looked particularly appetizing and the taste was even more amazing.

“Delicious!” Shen Hanxing nodded as she ate. Just how many more surprises was her Mr. Ji going to give her? He was such a n.o.ble and outstanding man. Not only was he outstanding in his work, but he was also outstanding in his cooking. Shen Hanxing was pleasantly surprised. She gave him a thumbs up and praised him.”Mr. Ji’s noodles are the best I’ve ever eaten.” She might be biased towards Ji Yan, but his cooking was really extraordinary.

“It’s good that Madam likes it.” Seeing that Shen Hanxing was eating happily, Ji Yan said in a gentle voice, “Since Madam likes it. I’ll make it for you often in the future.”

Shen Hanxing smiled at him, her heart filled with sweetness as if it had been stained with unerasable honey. She said to Ji Yan, “Mr. Ji, do you want to have some? It’s really super delicious.”

“I’m not hungry.” Ji Yan’s mood was lifted when his cooking skills were recognized, especially when he saw Shen Hanxing eating so happily. “It’s fine if you can’t finish it, Madam.” There was still some left in the pot, but he had specially cooked a little more for fear that she would not be full.
