NovelEnglishEating Noodles
After the commotion caused by Yi Zheng, Shi Man and Shi He lost their mood. They called Ning Hui and asked him to prepare the car before leaving.
As a long time had passed and Shi He’s sports car had been driven away, those fans and paparazzi had dispersed.
Shi Man and Shi He arrived home safely. Since there was an IV stand in the corner of the house, they gathered that Shi Jing had returned. She had only been hospitalized for a day before coming back. Shi Man didn’t know if Shi Jing was anxious to return or if she was fine.
“Tsk, I should have eaten something before coming back,” Shi He said.
He had only been drinking in Nightless City today and had not eaten much. Shi Jing had just committed suicide and was still recovering. It was not good to wake her up to cook for him. In his opinion, the food cooked by the chef at home was just ordinary to fill his stomach. It was not good at all.

Shi He thought that his sister was looking for food, so he said, “Xiao Man, why don’t I call the chef out to make some food for you?”
“No need. I’ll just cook noodles.” Shi Man was picking out the ingredients she needed in the fridge. She turned to look at Shi He and asked, “Do you want to eat?”
Since when did Xiao Man know how to cook? Shi He rubbed his chin and said, “I’ll eat.”
Even if his sister made a pot of hell-level dark cuisine, he would definitely finish every morsel.
Shi Man picked some vegetables and shrimp and started cooking. Soon, two bowls of braised shrimp noodles were out of the pot.
Shi He was still immersed in the joy of watching his sister cook for him. He did not expect Manman to be so virtuous when she cooked. Her thick black hair was casually tied up, and the excess was tucked behind her ears. There was an apron tied around her waist, and the sleeves of her shirt were casually folded. She looked like the young Shen Xian.
“Eat your noodles. Why are you in a daze?” Shi Man gently knocked Shi He’s head with her chopsticks, indicating for him to bring the noodles to the bar.
Only then did Shi He react and did as he was told with a smile.
It had to be said that Xiao Man’s bowl of noodles did look decent. It was fragrant and seductive. It had been a long time since Shi He felt this way about someone else’s food.
After taking a bite, Shi He was even more shocked. It was delicious.
Not only was it delicious, but it was also at the level of a chef!
Most importantly, he did not have the same feeling as before.
Looking at Shi He eating the noodles crazily, Shi Man was a little worried.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDue to the special nature of her job as an agent, she learned how to cook when she was young. Sometimes, she had even disguised herself as a chef when she went on missions. She had always been diligent in building up her knowledge when nabbing her targets.
She had especially added a lot of fennel when she made the noodles. It was mainly because the strong taste of the fennel could numb the tastebuds and cover the taste of the food. This was a small trick when making “augmented” food. Shi Jing would obviously do the same.
Shi Man made the fennel noodles to make Shi He temporarily forget the taste of the drugs in Shi Jing’s food and deceive his nerves, making him think that this kind of noodles was the same as Shi Jing’s drugged cooking.
In addition, Shi Man cooked in front of Shi He. The visual impact and psychological satisfaction also relieved his dependence on the drug.
“Third Brother,” Shi Man said, “you can tell me if you want to eat in the future. I especially learned cooking for you.”
Shi He didn’t look up. He just nodded in acknowledgment.
Compared to the feeling of not eating normal food for a long time, Xiao Man’s performance touched him even more. He liked that unreasonable sister in the past, but the current Xiao Man made him want to be close to her and feel like a family.
Now, he didn’t know if he should thank Yi Zheng or hate him for letting his sister slit her wrist. He felt that Xiao Man had really become much more sensible and would take her family seriously.
“Oh right, there’s one more thing.” Shi Man was thinking about something and ate the noodles quickly. “Wash the dishes, Brother.”
With that, Shi Man immediately slipped upstairs, leaving Shi He downstairs to savor the soup.
He could just throw the dishes into the dishwasher and hand them to the servants.
