Chapter 633: Chapter 633: Men and Women in Love

Luo Qiao felt that since she liked him, they might as well be together, and considering she had previously made a promise, she softly "Mhm-ed" in agreement.

Once Lu Yichen heard her response, he hugged her even tighter.

Right then, a knock on the door came from outside: "Luo Qiao, are you there? It’s Auntie Zhang from next door."

The two who were embracing in the kitchen quickly separated, and Lu Yichen looked somewhat ruefully towards the door, straightening Luo Qiao’s clothes before nodding to signal all was well.

Luo Qiao then turned to open the door: "Auntie Zhang, please come in, what’s the matter?"

Auntie Zhang stepped inside and stopped, laughing as she said, "Luo Qiao, Auntie is here today to ask for a favor."

Luo Qiao actually had a pretty good idea what Auntie Zhang wanted to ask for; knowing that Auntie Zhang’s youngest son was getting married in a few days, she assumed the request would be to borrow her courtyard for the banquet.

Auntie Zhang glanced around the courtyard and said, "Luo Qiao, my youngest son is getting married the day after tomorrow, and I was hoping to borrow your courtyard for the feast. Don’t worry, I know you’re tidy, and I’ll make sure someone looks after it. We’ll clean everything up spotlessly after the celebration is over."

Ever since Luo Qiao heard the Zhang family’s youngest son was betrothed, she knew this day would come, and considering it was common practice these days, she readily replied: "Auntie, feel free to use it, and congratulations."

Auntie Zhang smiled, pulling out a handful of fruit candies from her pocket: "Here, share the joy and sweetness."

Luo Qiao looked at the fruit candies Auntie Zhang had taken out, smiling as she accepted them: "Thank you, Auntie Zhang."

Seeing a few kids at the door, she cheerfully said: "Come on, there’s enough to go around, everyone get sweetened up. This is candy from the Zhang family’s celebration, remember to say congratulations to people you meet, got it?"

A group of kids took the candy, shoving it into their mouths and mumbled: "Got it, we’ll tell Uncle Zhang when we see him."

Auntie Zhang couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this.

After saying goodbye to Auntie Zhang, Luo Qiao then closed the door behind her, having already become accustomed to these visits.

Back in the kitchen, Lu Yichen was also looking over, and they exchanged a smile. In the short time away, Lu Yichen had already dished up the food.

Worried there might not be enough to eat, Luo Qiao suggested: "Brother Chen, boil another pot of water, and later we can cook some noodles. I have some meat sauce I made a few days ago; it’d be perfect for noodles."

Lu Yichen didn’t stand on ceremony with her; after dishing out the food, he boiled another pot of water, then said: "Qiaoqiao, I heard from a former colleague that now in Ji City, we can use liquefied gas, and there’s a refill station in the area.

I’ll be free tomorrow, so I’ll go take a look and bring back a set for you. It’ll make cooking more convenient and one big canister will last you a while; it’s clean and hygienic too."

Luo Qiao sat down, handing over a pair of chopsticks to Lu Yichen: "Yeah, I heard about it a few days ago. There’s a refill station not too far from here, but I haven’t had the chance to check it out."

Once the water boiled, Lu Yichen stood up and dropped the noodles in, and after fishing them out, he mixed them well with the meat sauce: "Qiaoqiao, would you like some more?"

Luo Qiao was already full, but the sight of the meat sauce coated noodles still made her mouth water: "I’ll just have a taste."

As Lu Yichen lifted some noodles ready to feed her, Luo Qiao burst into laughter: "I can do it myself, this makes me look like a child, it’s laughable."

But Lu Yichen patiently waited: "I don’t mind spoiling you, and it’s none of anybody else’s business. Besides, there’s just us two in this yard; no one will know."

Seeing that he was insistent on feeding her, Luo Qiao’s cheeks flushed, but she didn’t play coy and just opened her mouth waiting for him to feed her.

Lu Yichen was pleased with himself: "Would you like another bite?"

Luo Qiao shook her head: "You eat, quick, or the noodles will get sticky and less tasty."

After cleaning up the dishes and the kitchen, the two were affectionate for a while, but when the time came, Lu Yichen reluctantly stood up: "Lock the door well. I’ll bring breakfast over tomorrow morning."

Luo Qiao laughed: "Anyway, we are planning our betrothal and wedding later this year; what’s there to fear about your staying in Stone’s room?"

Lu Yichen pinched Luo Qiao’s nose and shook it gently: "Stop teasing me. Let’s see if you dare say that after we’re engaged."

Luo Qiao suddenly laughed outright.

Lu Yichen said: "Lock the door well, get some rest early. I’m off."

Deep down, he didn’t want to leave, but he had to; a girl’s reputation was of utmost importance.

Watching Lu Yichen walk off into the distance, Luo Qiao secured the front door before she turned back, closing her own door and entering her space.
