Chapter 617 - 617 618 Moved (10)_1
?Chapter 617: Chapter 618: Moved (10)_1 Chapter 617: Chapter 618: Moved (10)_1 Liang Chen stood by the dining table, looking at Jing Haohao’s back. He watched for a while, swallowed hard, and was about to speak when Jing Haohao turned her head. She held a handful of noodles in her hand, recalling that Liang Chen hadn’t eaten anything at Qian Hua’s birthday party either, and asked, “Do you want something to eat?”
The words on the tip of Liang Chen’s tongue were abruptly swallowed back. A surge of joy and surprise, like a tidal wave, slowly engulfed his body, causing him to stall before he finally nodded explosively, saying, “Okay.”
Jing Haohao didn’t make a sound, turned around, quickly put the noodles into the pot, and then broke two eggs into the pot.
Liang Chen stood there without moving away. His gaze firmly rested on Jing Haohao, watching her cook the noodles. He felt as if he had been transported into a magical world.
The studio apartment she rented was narrow and old, not very spacious and with minimal furniture. Yet, it was remarkably tidy and clean. Small potted plants could be seen everywhere. A couple of clothes, along with few undergarments, hung on the balcony of the living room, emitting an air of comfort.
Only now did he vaguely understand why every day when she was living in his villa, he would always make sure to come home on time. But when she wasn’t there, he would feel tired and could rest anywhere.
In truth, it wasn’t the villa he was returning to at that time, but to the home called Jing Haohao.
Where the heart rests, there lies one’s homeland.
Wherever Jing Haohao goes, whether the place is grand or rundown, it could give him the feeling of a comfortable and peaceful home.
Jing Haohao cut a segment of green onion, chopped it up, put it in the boiled eggs and noodles, added some sesame oil and vinegar, and then brought it to the table.
From childhood to adulthood, Liang Chen had never really eaten such a simple meal. Yet, without any hesitation, he took off his suit jacket, went to the bathroom to wash his hands clean, sat in front of Jing Haohao, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating.
The steaming noodles, poached egg, scent of green onions, combined with the faint fragrance emanating from the woman in front of him, mingled together, making Liang Chen feel that this was definitely the most wonderful feeling in the world.
He ate big bites of noodles, occasionally lifting his eyelids to sneak a peek at Jing Haohao in front of him.
The woman was slightly bowing her head, her eating movements looked very delicate, always biting off the noodles when she had eaten halfway through.
Liang Chen couldn’t help but imitate Jing Haohao’s action of eating noodles.
Although it was just egg noodles, Liang Chen ate heartily. After finishing a bowl, he looked up and asked Jing Haohao sitting opposite him, “Is there any more?”
Jing Haohao didn’t know how much Liang Chen could eat, so she deliberately cooked more noodles. Hearing his question, she immediately stood up, took his bowl, went to the pot, served another bowl, and handed it to Liang Chen.
When Liang Chen reached out to take it, he accidentally touched Jing Haohao’s hand. As if she’d been electrocuted, her fingers flinched to withdraw, but then she realized she was holding a bowl of noodles and ceased her movements.
Liang Chen’s hand lingered on Jing Haohao’s hand for a while without moving.
Both Liang Chen and Jing Haohao, one standing and the other sitting, stared at each other in silence,
The room was incredibly quiet, and the two could faintly hear each other’s heartbeat.
PS: That’s it for today. No extra updates today. If there will be, it would be on next Monday. Been a bit busy these few days~~ With such a warm and intimate scene, should there be passionate moments next?
