Chapter 691 - 691 Beautiful

691 Beautiful
However, it did not matter. At least the road could still be seen.

Therefore, Sixth Sister Ye Meng turned off the flashlight and picked up her bag. She looked around warily, afraid that she would encounter a criminal.

Although there were a few cameras in the alley, it was better to be safe than sorry. No matter what, she had to be vigilant.

Ye Xuan was not afraid. With his skills, unless a large group of people came, they might not be able to take him down. Moreover, Zheng Jianghao was following them in the dark, so Ye Xuan was not flustered at all.

His Sixth Sister didn’t know about this, so she was still a little flustered.

However, they arrived at the noodle shop not long after. The light immediately shone on their faces, as well as the fragrance of the soup and seasoning.

It was very quiet outside just now. The moment he entered the noodle shop, Ye Xuan felt the strong aura of people. After all, there were still many customers in this shop. They didn’t speak much and weren’t noisy, but it made people feel that it was very lively.

Next to the entrance of the shop was a U-shaped cement table with two large stainless steel buckets. The buckets were specially used to cook noodles. The noodle soup inside was very green and there were many noodles and vegetable leaves rolling around. It reminded Ye Xuan of many years ago and made him sigh.

This shop was not big. Overall, it was only 20 to 30 square meters large. Although it looked small, it was very hygienic. The tables and chairs looked very new, and there was not a ball of paper on the ground.

Moreover, there were many people who came here to eat noodles. They ate to their heart’s content and wolfed down the noodles. From this, one could see the standard of this noodle shop. It was indeed not bad.

Just as they observed the shop, they heard the lady boss wipe her hands and call out to them.

“The two of you, would you like some noodles?”

The lady boss looked to be in her forties or fifties. She was very kind, and her smile was very gentle. Her voice was also very gentle. One wondered who was so lucky to have such a gentle and kind mother.

This noodle shop was run by a couple. The male boss was in charge of cleaning the table and serving the noodles, while the lady boss was in charge of cooking the noodles. The two of them happened to get this job and looked quite happy.

The male boss also looked very simple and honest. The smile on his face was very warm. Although his wrinkles were deep and his eye bags were heavy, they could not hide his kindness at all.

“We’ll have two bowls as usual. Let’s have 150 grams of noodles today with more spice. Give me more pickled vegetables too. I’m hungry.”

Just as Sixth Sister Ye Meng and Ye Xuan were looking at the menu on the wall, another couple walked in from outside. They shouted at the lady boss and found a seat.

The lady boss looked at the two regulars and smiled. Then, she rolled up her sleeves and started to cook noodles. She smiled and spoke.

“You got off work so late today. The young lady looks much better. She’s quite good.”

“That’s right. My health has been much better recently. It’s all thanks to the clinic you introduced me to, Big Sister. Thank you very much.”

“Sigh, it’s fine. It’s not much. Aiyo, there don’t seem to be many pickled vegetables left. Little Luo, can I add more coriander for you? There aren’t many pickled vegetables left. There are still customers…”

“Not much? Haha, Big Sister, your pickled vegetables are really popular. Forget about the coriander. In that case, help me add more lettuce leaves. I brought some caterpillar fungus for you and Brother Zhou. I’ll leave it here for you.”

“Aiyo, Little Luo, what are you doing…”

…

Listening to the conversation between the lady boss and the couple, Ye Xuan felt very warm. He often went to high-end clubhouses and hotels and almost forgot what this ordinary life felt like.

Now that he was here, a feeling that came from the bottom of his heart couldn’t help but surge up, making Ye Xuan sigh.

However, Sixth Sister Ye Meng was not too emotional. She seriously looked at the types of noodles on the menu, such as Chongqing noodles, beef noodles, ramen, knife-cut noodles, and so on.

After looking at it for a long time, her gaze finally landed on the noodles with fried bean sauce. According to her best friend, these noodles with fried bean sauce tasted very good. The other flavors were also very good. It was up to Ye Meng to choose.

Since there was a recommendation, Sixth Sister Ye Meng naturally had to choose this recommendation first. No matter what, she would try it first.

Hence, she nodded and looked at the lady boss.

“Madam, I want a small bowl of noodles with fried bean sauce. I don’t want it to be spicy.”

After saying that, she looked down at Ye Xuan and continued.

“Little Brother, have you decided what you want?”

Ye Xuan nodded and spoke.

“I’ll have the noodles with fried bean sauce too. Chili is fine.”

“Hey, find a seat. The noodles will be ready soon.”

The lady boss smiled and greeted them. Then, she came to the bucket where the noodles were cooked and took out a handful of handmade noodles from the basin to cook. Her actions were very skillful.

Sixth Sister Ye Meng and Ye Xuan didn’t waste any time. They found a seat near the door and sat down. As soon as they sat down, the male boss brought over two bowls of noodle soup. It was green with some lard and spring onions. It smelled very fragrant.

Upon seeing this, Ye Xuan picked up the bowl and took a sip. The taste was very faint, but it wasn’t very faint either. When he first drank it, he felt that it was very faint, but it was very suitable with the aftertaste.

It was very tasty, especially fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless.

This seemingly simple bowl of soup did not have any additional decorations. The additional packaging was just that simple. There was a little salt, a few drops of lard, and some green onions.

It was just that simple, but the taste was better than many soups. It tasted especially smooth, fresh, and simple.

This couldn’t help but bring back some memories for Ye Xuan. He was filled with emotions. Then, he held the bowl and drank it clean in a few mouthfuls. Then, he carried the bowl to the male boss and smiled.

“Boss, I want another bowl of noodle soup.”

The male boss looked at Ye Xuan’s petite figure and his face was filled with a kind and amiable smile. He took Ye Xuan’s bowl and filled it with soup as he smiled at Ye Xuan.

“Alright, alright. Little kid, what grade are you in this year?”

“I’m already in second grade. My results are the best in our class. The teacher often praises me.”

Ye Xuan pretended to answer with an innocent expression, making his Sixth Sister Ye Meng cover her mouth and laugh.

After all, she knew best how knowledgeable and calm her little brother was.
However, when she saw that her little brother had finished the soup in two mouthfuls and even took the initiative to ask for a refill, she was curious. She had originally planned to drink it after eating the noodles, but now, she didn’t care. She picked up the bowl and took a sip.

Then, she tasted it in her mouth and her expression immediately grew tense. Then, she picked up the bowl and drank it in a few mouthfuls.

Then, like Ye Xuan, she carried the bowl to the male boss and shouted.

“Uncle! Give me another bowl of noodle soup. It’s so delicious.”

“Alright, alright, hehehe. If you want to drink, come often in the future. This girl is so pretty. You’re much prettier than my daughter.”
