"No. Let’s drive to a restaurant now!" Gu Zhou refused to eat instant noodles no matter what.
"But I’m so hungry. I can’t wait that long." Qiao Nian disagreed, staring intently at Gu Zhou.
Chen Qing, who was standing at the side, saw that the two of them still intended on continuing their argument. Worried that Madam would get angry, he said carefully, "Second Young Master, it’s Madam’s birthday today. Why don’t we listen to her and eat instant noodles? Do you think that’ll be alright?"
When Gu Zhou heard Chen Qing’s words, he couldn’t help but frown.
Shouldn’t she eat something better on her birthday?
Instant noodles?
Wasn’t that a little odd?
Gu Zhou’s gaze fell on Qiao Nian’s face. Those eyes of hers were sparkling with anticipation, as if instant noodles were an especially delicious dish.
This was the first time he had seen Qiao Nian looking at him like that. He swallowed, then turned to look away indifferently. "Whatever!"
When Qiao Nian heard Gu Zhou’s reply, she immediately cheered up. She said to Chen Qing, "Chen Qing, hurry up and bring back the instant noodles!"
"Yes, ma’am," Chen Qing replied, then left.
When Chen Qing returned, he was carrying a box of instant noodles.
Qiao Nian hurriedly followed Chen Qing towards the kitchen.
Chen Qing placed the box of instant noodles on the ground. Seeing Qiao Nian enter, he glanced at Gu Zhou, who was scowling not far away. He pursed his lips slightly. "Madam, it’s your birthday today. I’ll soak the instant noodles in hot water for you. Leave it to me!
"Soak in hot water?" Qiao Nian was slightly stunned.
Chen Qing nodded. "Yes!"
Gu Zhou, who was sitting at the side, looked at the two of them impassively. This was the first time he had heard of noodles being soaked in hot water. Weren’t noodles usually boiled?
Moreover, those were just instant noodles. They barely cost anything. How delicious could it be?
Hearing Chen Qing’s words, a trace of disdain appeared in Qiao Nian’s eyes. She said, "Soaking instant noodles in water is certainly one way to cook them, but they taste much better if you boil them. Just try my cooking later. You’ll definitely fall in love with instant noodles."
Chen Qing couldn’t disobey Qiao Nian, so he could only agree.
When Chen Qing came out of the kitchen, he saw Gu Zhou standing by the French window, looking out at the scenery with a dark expression. He was exuding a cold aura.
"I’ve already found his private number." As Chen Qing spoke, he showed Gu Zhou the phone number he had saved on his phone. "Do you want me to contact him?"
