Chapter 424: Chapter 424 South Brother Doesn’t Love Me Anymore.

Shen Mianmian noticed the other two enjoying their food immensely, and felt somewhat awkward just sitting there without eating, so she also picked up her chopsticks and began to eat slowly.

As soon as He Nan opened the door, he was greeted with a strong aroma of noodles. He raised his eyebrows slightly, walked into the living room, and saw three people sitting at the dining table, enjoying their meal. His brows immediately furrowed.

Hearing the noise, the three of them looked over at him.

"Bro Nan, come over and have some noodles. We’ve saved you a bowl. Mianmian’s noodles are delicious," Li Yue said without any surprise upon seeing He Nan’s return, inviting him to join in as if he were at his own home.

"The girl has really cooked up some nice noodles, much better than what you get in the restaurants. Bro Nan, sit down and have some quickly. If you wait too long, the noodles will stick together and won’t taste as good," Ruan Yiyang chimed in.

Shen Mianmian looked embarrassed. The noodles were indeed well-cooked, but for someone like Big Brother He, who never had to worry about food and had tasted everything, she doubted he would find the noodles that extraordinary.

He Nan glanced at the two men expressionlessly, placed the two bags he was carrying on the sofa, and then went to wash his hands in the kitchen. The pot was empty, clearly indicating that all of Shen Mianmian’s noodles had been served at the table.

He turned and walked out. Ruan Yiyang had just finished a bowl of noodles, having drunk even the last bit of soup.

Ruan Yiyang had a good appetite, and if he liked the food, he could easily finish three large bowls of rice in one meal. Just one bowl of noodles was far from enough for him, and the sight of He Nan’s noodles sparked an idea in his mind.

"Bro Nan, these noodles have been sitting for a while and are nearly cold. Maybe don’t bother with them, I’ll get the restaurant by the gate of the community to stir-fry a couple of dishes for you and have them sent up. Let me help you finish these," he suggested.

Before He Nan could respond, Li Yue shot him a glare, "Bro Nan has been out all afternoon and must be starving. It’s the first time Mianmian has cooked noodles for Bro Nan, so it’s the thought that counts. He should definitely have some."

After speaking, he looked at He Nan with a plea for approval as he picked up his chopsticks. "Bro Nan, can you finish that bowl of noodles? If not, don’t waste it, let me help you with it!"

Ruan Yiyang’s eyes widened in disbelief. Are these the words of a human?

Li Yue took his bowl and chopsticks to He Nan’s bowl to pick some noodles, but He Nan directly caught his chopsticks, thwarting the attempted food snatch. Li Yue sulkily returned to his seat.

"Bro Nan, your way of treating guests isn’t quite right. How are you supposed to set an example for Mianmian?"

He Nan ignored him and said to Shen Mianmian, "Don’t let them in next time."

Li Yue: "..."

Bro Nan doesn’t love me anymore.

Ruan Yiyang: "..."

Was he collateral damage?

Shen Mianmian: "..."

Should she agree or not?

Forget it, she’ll just pretend she didn’t hear it.

He Nan ate his noodles quite quickly, but without seeming rude, finishing almost at the same time as Li Yue did.

Shen Mianmian stood up to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, but He Nan said, "Let those two do it."

"It’s fine, I often wash dishes at home too." Those two, being the young masters at their homes, probably had never stepped into a kitchen. Letting them wash dishes could end up with her kitchen dismantled.

He Nan didn’t say much, but gave Li Yue a fleeting glance.

"You’ve worked hard cooking. Let us handle this," Li Yue said, unable to bear letting the young girl serve and clean up after them. He took the bowls and chopsticks from her and headed to the kitchen, making sure to drag Ruan Yiyang with him.

Why should he be the only one cleaning up after two people came over for a free meal?
