Chapter 423: Chapter 423 Brother Li is here

If it weren’t for Shen Mianmian being too young, just by her appearance, she would be a perfect match for Brother Nan.

Moreover, he always felt that there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity about Shen Mianmian, especially her smile just now. It felt somewhat familiar, a bit like...

Ruan Yiyang was deeply pondering when Li Yue suddenly gave his thigh a twist.

He let out a ’tsk’ in pain. "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing?" Li Yue retorted, and seriously warned, "Why are you staring at Mianmian? Let me tell you, put away that playboy nature of yours. This is Brother Nan’s house."

The person in front of him could possibly become Brother Nan’s goddaughter in the future.

"..." Ruan Yiyang was speechless, "What nonsense are you spouting? When have I ever been a playboy?"

It was true that sometimes his mouth was a bit cheeky, but he had never been irresponsible.

However, staring at Shen Mianmian for so long just now, it was indeed easy to be misunderstood.

Li Yue ignored him and instead said to Shen Mianmian, "Mianmian, don’t be afraid, Brother Li is here."

Shen Mianmian’s mouth twitched slightly. These two really were quite humorous.

With the misunderstanding cleared up, Ruan Yiyang suddenly noticed a delicious aroma in the room. He sniffed hard with his nose and asked curiously, "What’s this fragrance?"

"Mianmian, are you cooking something?" reminded by him, Li Yue also noticed a meaty fragrance in the room.

The two originally came to invite He Nan out for a meal, but as soon as they smelled this scent, they instantly felt hungry.

"I’m cooking noodles." Out of politeness, Shen Mianmian courteously asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet."

"Not yet."

Li Yue and Ruan Yiyang said in unison.

Shen Mianmian: "..."

She was just going through the motions, making a polite offer, thinking that these two big bosses would certainly not be eating here; unexpectedly, they were quite unanimous in wanting to mooch a meal.

It was just a matter of adding two more bowls of water. Since they wanted to eat, Shen Mianmian had no choice but to bite the bullet and cook the noodles.

"Add more meat and don’t save for Brother Nan. He doesn’t have children to raise; saving so much money is pointless." Li Yue shouted toward the kitchen.

Ruan Yiyang, on the other hand, turned on the TV and started watching the popular romance drama currently airing. Li Yue wanted to watch Journey to the West, and the two argued back and forth over this until finally, they turned off the TV, and neither watched anything.

Shen Mianmian was quite efficient in her tasks, cooking included, and soon a pot of steaming hot noodles was ready. Judging the time, He Nan should be almost back, so she served up three large bowls of noodles and one small bowl for herself.

Seeing the noodles ready, Li Yue laughingly ran into the kitchen. Upon seeing the cooked noodles, he couldn’t help but praise inwardly. Whether the taste was good or not, he didn’t know, but the aroma and presentation were already spot on.

Seeing Shen Mianmian going to carry the bowls, he quickly stopped her, "I’ll carry them; don’t burn your hand." He then called out to the other room, "Young Master Ruan, come and help carry the noodles."

Ruan Yiyang, hearing this, strode in. He was clearly someone who didn’t set foot in the kitchen. Once inside, he didn’t know where to place his hands or feet, and his attempt to carry the noodles was awkward. Li Yue ridiculed him until his face turned red.

Shen Mianmian followed behind them with four sets of chopsticks.

He Nan hadn’t returned yet, but Li Yue and Ruan Yiyang were so enticed by the aroma of the noodles that their stomachs growled incessantly.

"Let’s not wait for him; we’ll start eating." Li Yue took up his chopsticks and began eating. As he took his first bite of noodles, his eyes instantly lit up. The young girl was young, but her cooking skills were impressive.

It tasted even better than what restaurants offered.

Ruan Yiyang helped himself without being polite, and didn’t forget to remind Shen Mianmian, "You eat too! Don’t wait for him. These noodles are too hot right now; by the time he gets back, they’ll be just right to eat."
