It wasn’t until Qin Xue returned to the room and saw Chu Molin lying on the bed that she realized that she was now a married woman.
She no longer had the freedom to wear whatever she wanted without any concerns, as she was no longer on her own.
Fortunately, Chu Molin had his eyes closed; otherwise, it would have been really embarrassing for her.
Qin Xue tiptoed onto the bed and lay down before closing her eyes and taking a nap.
When Qin Xue’s breathing became steady, Chu Molin, who she thought was asleep, suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at his wife’s sleeping face and smiled silently.
Actually, he knew when Qin Xue entered the room. When she wasn’t paying attention, Chu Molin had caught a glimpse of her.
He noticed the difference in Qin Xue and understood what she was thinking when he saw her troubled expression.
So he pretended to be asleep when Qin Xue didn’t notice, in order to ease the awkwardness.
As expected, his little wife went to bed and fell asleep in no time.
Chu Molin moved closer to Qin Xue, held her hand, closed his eyes and slept.
The couple had no idea that the Qins in H Province had already received Qin Xue’s letter and were discussing coming to visit them.
When Qin Xue saw Mrs. Qin, it was indeed a big surprise.
After the couple had a beautiful nap together, Qin Xue got up to cook, while Chu Molin read a book leaning against the bed.
Qin Xue noticed that there weren’t many ingredients at home, so she decided to make hand-rolled noodles for their meal.
Qin Xue would find an opportunity to get some vegetables from her space when she went to make a walker for Jingtao the next day; she didn’t want to go begging even with a golden bowl in her hands.
After kneading the dough, Qin Xue set it aside, prepared the necessary ingredients, and added water to the pot. Then she started rolling the dough into thin sheets and cutting them into strips one by one.
When the water boiled, she could start cooking the noodles. Qin Xue liked wider noodles, so she cut them a bit wider.
Qin Xue placed the noodles in bowls, sprinkled chopped green onions, ginger, and garlic on top, added seasonings, and blanched some greens to put on top. Then she heated oil and poured it over the noodles, finally placing two soft-boiled eggs in each bowl. The fragrant spicy oil noodles were ready.
“Chu Molin, dinner’s ready,” Qin Xue called out to him.
Upon hearing his wife’s voice, Chu Molin put a bookmark in the book, put on his shoes, and walked out. Seeing the steaming bowls of noodles on the table, he swallowed his saliva. The enticing noodles made him drool.
Chu Molin went to the bathroom to wash his hands before sitting down to eat.
“Xue’er, these noodles are delicious,” Chu Molin praised, putting the egg aside and taking a bite of the well-mixed noodles.
Although it was just a simple bowl of spicy oil noodles, it was the most delicious one Chu Molin had ever tasted – full of flavor and would have been even better with some chili peppers.
Qin Xue watched him finish a bowl of noodles in just a few bites while she had only eaten two mouthfuls. He was eating really fast.
“Chu Molin, are you full? Do you want more?” Qin Xue had rolled out more noodles but was afraid they wouldn’t finish them, so she didn’t cook all of them.
If Chu Molin was still hungry, she would cook more noodles for him.
“Is there more?” Chu Molin felt slightly unsatisfied, as the taste was exactly to his liking.
“Yes, but you’ll have to wait a few minutes,” Qin Xue replied. Although she had rolled out more noodles, she hadn’t cooked them yet.
“Okay, you eat first,” Chu Molin said, seeing Qin Xue put down her chopsticks and getting up to cook more noodles for him, he hurriedly stopped her.
“But you haven’t had enough to eat, have you?” Qin Xue looked at him in surprise.
“It’s alright. I just ate a big serving,” Chu Molin said, actually feeling only half-full, but he didn’t want to make his wife stop eating and start cooking for him..
