Chapter 2300: Are You Disappointed?
Jiang Luoli held Mo Shixiuâs hand and turned to leave. âAlright, letâs go out. I canât wait to try the noodles our Minister cooked for the first time.â
âLuoli.â Mo Shixiuâs expression was complicated.
Jiang Luoli turned around and looked at him. âWhatâs wrong?â
âThat bowl of noodles isnât very good. Why donât I make it for you in a few days? When Iâve completely learned it, IâllâŠâ
âNo need.â Jiang Luoli interrupted him. âI saw it just now. I think itâs pretty good.â
âButâŠâ
âAlright, alright. Iâll try it first. Youâve already cooked it, so letâs not waste it.â
Mo Shixiu looked at her and nodded.
âŠ
In the dining room.
There was a bowl of steaming noodles on the table.
Jiang Luoli walked over and sat down. Mo Shixiu sat beside her as she pick up the chopsticks.
He looked nervous. Even more nervous than when he was facing problems at work.
He would find a way to solve problems at work.
He could solve any problem.
But nowâŠ
Mo Shixiu didnât know, but he was afraid that Jiang Luoli would find his food awful.
It was rare for her to make a request to him, but he didnât do it well. Mo Shixiu felt guilty.
He watched Jiang Luoli taste the noodles and immediately asked, âHow is it?â
Jiang Luoli didnât say anything for a moment. Then, she nodded and said, âMm, not bad.â
âNot bad?â
âMm.â
âReally? Youâre not lying to me?â Mo Shixiu was skeptical.
âReally.â Jiang Luoli took another bite of noodles and smiled. âIf this is your first time cooking, itâs really not bad. Although the taste isnât very good, itâs not bad. I think itâs very good already.â
The noodles were really bad.
But this was Mo Shixiuâs first time cooking, and Jiang Luoli really felt that it was good.
To her, something else was more important.
Even though this bowl of noodles tasted awful, she felt sweet inside.
Such a man.
He had been pampered since he was young and had never cooked before.
He cooked for the first time in his life. For her.
This was a precious gift to her.
Jiang Luoli ate a few more mouthfuls.
She ate reluctantly.
Her prenatal tastes were different from usual. She was especially picky with her food now. Moreover, the noodles didnât taste too good. After eating a few mouthfuls, her stomach felt a little uncomfortable.
Mo Shixiu could tell.
As Jiang Luoli continued eating, he reached out and took the bowl away.
Jiang Luoli looked up.
âDonât eat anymore.â Mo Shixiu patted her head and wiped her lips with a handkerchief. âIf you donât like it, donât force yourself to eat it. I know this bowl of noodles doesnât taste good. I thought it was a simple thing, but I didnât expectâŠâ
He sighed. âI didnât expect that I couldnât even cook a bowl of noodles. Luoli, are you disappointed?â
âHow could that be?â Jiang Luoli shook her head. âIâve said it before, itâs already very good that you can cook like this for the first time. Do you know what my first time was like? I almost burned the kitchen.
âMo Shixiu, Iâm really satisfied with your sincerity.â
