Ill at ease, Shen Xi was unable to savor the instant noodles in her mouth. Instead, she could not help but sneak a peek at the person opposite her. She took a glance, and then another glance.
The man always carried himself with grace and nobility no matter where and when. He was a sight to behold even as he dined on a cup of noodles.
She was familiar with the taste of instant noodles.
Shen Xi was aware that treating him to instant noodles was a bit of a shoddy move.
Nonetheless, Shen Xi was filled with anticipation despite having no idea what she was looking forward to.
Li Yuan believed that out of all the delicacies from his past, these noodles were the most delicious thing he had ever eaten. The nervous and expectant look on the girl’s face left him in a conflict of distress and happiness.
He wanted to meet her in the eye, yet afraid to scare her off. Hence, he earnestly dug into the noodles.
The couple quietly finished off their noodle cups. The usually chatty young lady kept to herself for once.
Kun Lun watched them both ingest a noodle cup each.
Ms. Shen seemed to have something on her mind, eating as if it was tasteless.
Boss, on the other hand, was smiling ear to ear and really enjoying his meal. One would think he was indulging in some delicacies.
Shen Xi finished the cup of noodles, not knowing what she had eaten. Noticing the man putting down his chopsticks, she turned to him with expectant eyes.
Li Yuan put down his chopsticks and gazed at her. “Don’t you have a brand launch to go to tomorrow? You should head back early for a rest!”
Although her heart sank, Shen Xi nodded. “Okay.”
After having the instant noodles, did he not have anything to say to her?

With the girl giving him a longing and sorrowful gaze, Li Yuan was amused and heartbroken at the same time. He called out to her. “Hold on.”
Shen Xi’s eyes lit up as she turned around and threw him a nervous but anticipating look.
Li Yuan wheeled himself forward and placed an exquisitely wrapped gift box in the basket. His tone bore a clear hint of delight. “A present for your quick success. May “The Smiling Nation” continue to have triumphant progress and high viewership.”
Though disappointed, Shen Xi wanted to keep it from him. Thus, she smiled brightly and spoke in her usual perky and clear voice, “Thank you, Brother.”
It pained Li Yuan to see the glow in her eyes put out the moment she turned around with the gift in hand. He quit the teasing and let out a laugh. “It was delicious.”
Hearing the man’s sexy and delightful voice, Shen Xi abruptly turned back and had the spark rekindle in her eyes.
As his eyes met the girl’s expectant eyes, his lips opened. “Dinner was delicious. Thank you for your hospitality.”
Happy at last, she asked him with her heart racing, “Really?”
Li Yuan nodded and curled his lips into a gleeful smile. He did not hold back on the praise. “Any food would be delicious as long as you’re the one making it.”
“I will treat you again next time.” Shen Xi’s eyes lit up and sparkled like the brightest stars in the sky. Sweetness slowly filled her heart.
“It will be my treat next time.” Li Yuan looked at the girl and grinned.
Shen Xi was on cloud nine and her heart was pounding out of her chest with joy. The smile never left her lips even after she carried the gift home.
All she wanted was a word from him.
It did not matter whether the instant noodles were delicious or not, Shen Xi was happy and filled with a sense of achievement if he said it was good.
Li Yuan stood there, listening as the girl’s footsteps faded away in the courtyard, the smile across his lips growing with delight and doting.
Silly young lady.
Why was she so easily pleased?
