Chapter 2300 - Are You Disappointed?
Jiang Luoli held Mo Shixiu's hand and turned to leave. "Alright, let's go out. I can't wait to try the noodles our Minister cooked for the first time."
"Luoli." Mo Shixiu's expression was complicated.
Jiang Luoli turned around and looked at him. "What's wrong?"
"That bowl of noodles isn't very good. Why don't I make it for you in a few days? When I've completely learned it, I'll…"
"No need." Jiang Luoli interrupted him. "I saw it just now. I think it's pretty good."
"But…"
"Alright, alright. I'll try it first. You've already cooked it, so let's not waste it."
Mo Shixiu looked at her and nodded.
…
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 now…
Mo Shixiu didn't 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 didn't do it well. Mo Shixiu felt guilty.
He watched Jiang Luoli taste the noodles and immediately asked, "How is it?"
Jiang Luoli didn't say anything for a moment. Then, she nodded and said, "Mm, not bad."
"Not bad?"
"Mm."
"Really? You're not lying to me?" Mo Shixiu was skeptical.
"Really." Jiang Luoli took another bite of noodles and smiled. "If this is your first time cooking, it's really not bad. Although the taste isn't very good, it's not bad. I think it's very good already."
The noodles were really bad.
But this was Mo Shixiu's 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 didn't 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.
"Don't eat anymore." Mo Shixiu patted her head and wiped her lips with a handkerchief. "If you don't like it, don't force yourself to eat it. I know this bowl of noodles doesn't taste good. I thought it was a simple thing, but I didn't expect…"
He sighed. "I didn't expect that I couldn't even cook a bowl of noodles. Luoli, are you disappointed?"
"How could that be?" Jiang Luoli shook her head. "I've said it before, it's 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.
"Mo Shixiu, I'm really satisfied with your sincerity."
