Chapter 212 - 212 It’s an Enjoyment
212 It’s an Enjoyment
Su Yuan took a sip of the soup and started adding the seasonings. In the end, she was washed and cooked with all kinds of seafood and shellfish. Five minutes later, she turned off the fire and said, “I’ll be done soon. Go wash your hands.”
After saying that, she took another pot and started to cook the noodles. She heard footsteps behind her. They were not heading out of the kitchen, but in her direction. Then, a tall figure appeared beside her.
“You can wash your hands in the kitchen,” Mo Ting replied.
Su Yuan said, “You’re so handsome, you’re always right!”
She looked at Mo Ting, “Do you like soft or hard noodles?”
“It’s hard,” Mo Ting replied.
“Would you like some scallions and coriander?”
“I don’t eat coriander,” Mo Ting replied.
Su Yuan instinctively pouted. She liked coriander, especially when it was paired with beef and mutton. It was a dish that could burst out with a special aroma. It was invincible in the food industry!
“Then, will you be okay?”
“What?” Su Yuan looked at him in confusion, “Why are you asking if I can? Of course you can.”
Mo Ting’s eyes darkened as he pursed his lips and did not say anything.
Su Yuan retracted her gaze. The udon noodles in the pot were already done. She scooped out a portion of the udon noodles and soaked it in water. After soaking, the granules of the noodles quickly shrank and became very elastic. She placed the noodles into the bowl and then scooped a large spoonful of tomato soup. “Do you like prawns or shellfish?”
“Shrimp,” Mo Ting replied.
This time, Su Yuan laughed because she also liked to eat shrimp. They had the same preference.
Five imported Argentina red prawns filled the entire bowl. After that, Su Yuan sprinkled some green onions on it to add some color. A bowl of delicious tomato Seafood Udon noodles was ready.
“Let’s go eat.” Su Yuan handed the bowl of noodles to Mo Ting and turned around to get her own. After she was done, she stepped out of the kitchen and happened to meet Mo Ting’s gaze.
Mo Ting crossed his arms as he leaned back in his chair like he had been waiting for her.
Su Yuan glanced at the dining table. The chopsticks were still on the bowl of noodles and Mo Ting hadn’t taken a single bite. He was waiting for her to finish the food together.
“Why aren’t you eating? It won’t taste good if it’s a lump.”
Su Yuan carried the bowl and sat down opposite him.
After she sat down, Mo Ting picked up his chopsticks, “Madam is cooking noodles for me so late at night. How can I eat it first?” Then, he looked at the bowl of noodles and complimented, “Madam’s cooking skills really surprised me.”
In her previous life, everyone who had eaten her cooking was full of praise. There were only a few words of flattery. She thought she was immune to it and didn’t feel anything. But, for some reason, when the same words came out of Mo Ting’s mouth, it felt a little different. She was a little happy, but she didn’t want to admit it. “Hurry up and eat, or the surprise will become a shock.”
Mo Ting was amused by her words. He used his chopsticks to carefully stir the noodles and took a bite.
Tonight, Su Yuan naturally had her reasons for being nice to Mo Ting. They hadn’t seen each other for a week, and it was a little unreasonable to talk about business the moment they met. So, she thought of this idea to make her a late-night snack to ease the atmosphere between the two.
However, what was originally just a foreshadowing for serious business had now changed its meaning. She suddenly looked forward to Mo Ting’s reaction after he finished eating. She stared straight at Mo Ting as he took a small bite, then another bite, and then a big mouthful. However, even though he was picking up more and more noodles, his movements were still very elegant. The only difference was that his eating speed was much faster than usual.
Su Yuan wanted to ask, “How does it taste? Is it good?” She held it back and even after Mo Ting finished the soup, she still did not ask.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Mo Ting swallowed the last mouthful of soup and let out a long sigh.
Then, he looked at Su Yuan and suddenly noticed that there was something wrong with her gaze. He asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“No, I was just thinking, do you usually eat your fill?”
Hearing this, Mo Ting was a little surprised before he burst out laughing, “Other people’s cooking can’t be compared to Madam’s. Usually, it’s just to fill my stomach. It’s a pleasure to eat Madam’s cooking.”
Fill my stomach? Was this flattery not a little too much? Su Yuan pursed her lips. Luckily, Aunt Du was not here. If she had heard this, she would have been sad.
Mo Ting suddenly stood up and sat down beside Su Yuan.
Su Yuan’s alarm went off. “You! What are you doing?” She was still very sensitive to men approaching her.
“Don’t be nervous. I just want to help you peel the shrimp.” As he spoke, Mo Ting picked up a prawn from his plate and began to shell it.
Su Yuan couldn’t eat too much at night. The prawns were too big, and she couldn’t eat the noodles if she put them in her bowl, so she took them out and put them on her plate. He planned to eat the shrimp after the bowl of noodles.
