Chapter 263: 263 The daughter-in-law is jealous!_1

Gu Chen had originally planned to eat after she was almost done, just a few bites for himself.

But to his surprise, the girl managed to finish off the instant noodles without leaving a single bit!

Beyond his astonishment, he swallowed saliva.

"Wife, eating too much of this stuff can make you feel uncomfortable."

The truth is, everyone knows about instant noodles, they’re indeed delicious, but right after eating you immediately regret it, always feeling like there’s something sitting in your stomach, truly uncomfortable.

Ji Pianran felt embarrassed and lifted her head, nodding at Gu Chen with a soft, mushy voice.

"Why not, why not buy another box..."

After all, a woman in love always wants to leave a perfect impression on her partner, and she was really afraid that Gu Chen would laugh at her for eating so much.

Gu Chen had hardly had a few mouthfuls, and she had gobbled it all up herself.

She lowered her head and touched her belly, murmuring, "This instant noodles, they’re just too little."

Right, it’s not my fault, it’s just that the instant noodles weren’t enough!

Gu Chen looked at her bashful manner and really found it helpless yet amusing.

This silly wife of his, if she can eat then let her eat, he didn’t mind at all, and yet she still blamed the noodles for being too little, how adorable was that.

He took the instant noodle box from the table, slurped two mouthfuls of soup.

Then he got up, stacked the two empty boxes together ready to throw them out.

Gu Chen’s upper bunk mate was a girl in her twenties.

She hadn’t eaten either, thinking of muddling through a night’s sleep and waiting to eat when she arrived in Guangzhou; however, after being tantalized by the smell of instant noodles for half a day, she couldn’t resist anymore and decided to have a box of instant noodles herself.

She had a great figure, and as she was in fashion business, her dress was very avant-garde.

She wore a white tank top with a black miniskirt and black stockings.

She looked sexy and enchanting.

As Gu Chen stood up, his eyes inadvertently fell on her long, sleek legs she had just draped down.

Out of instinct, he glanced once and quickly made space.

Honestly, he looked because he was standing and didn’t want to bump into her.

The girl saw Gu Chen step aside and smiled awkwardly.

"Go ahead, I’ll move my legs."

After speaking, she leisurely withdrew her legs.

Ji Pianran was sitting opposite Gu Chen and could see the girl’s actions very clearly.

Especially that pair of black stockings—as she had always been in the village, used to long pants and long sleeves, it was the first time she had seen someone wear black stockings and felt it was a bit revealing, yet she couldn’t deny that it was indeed attractive.

She couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Gu Chen turned to Ji Pianran with a smile, "Wife, I’ll go throw away the trash."

After he spoke, he left the compartment.

Only after Gu Chen had left did the girl from the upper bunk climb down the rail.

Seeing Ji Pianran looking at her, she smiled politely.

"That’s your husband, huh? He’s really good to you, hardly eating anything himself and letting you have all the noodles. I’m envious of you, having such a considerate husband."

Ji Pianran was already feeling self-conscious about her gluttony, and at these words, her eyelids twitched!

She felt both embarrassment and shame.

She forced a smile, "Yeah, he is indeed very good to me."

The girl nodded with envy in her eyes.

"I wish I had such a great boyfriend. On the train, you really should buy more to eat, especially at night—it’s easy to get hungry. Your husband definitely didn’t eat enough just now."

After speaking, she turned to buy herself some instant noodles.

Watching her disappearing back, Ji Pianran felt an inexplicable unease.

Had she been too excessive just now?

She had finished all of Gu Chen’s instant noodles, and he would undoubtedly be hungry later.

It was all because they had been in too much of a hurry when leaving, not bringing clothes and not buying food or drink before boarding the train.

Thinking about it made her feel somewhat irritable inside.

She hung her head low, clenching her hands tightly, biting her lips in a sullen mood.

As she was lost in thought, she saw Gu Chen returning with a bag of sour plums in his hands, which he placed on the small table and looked at her with a smile.

"You ate so much spicy food earlier, a sour plum can make you feel better."

No sooner had he spoken when the girl who had gone to buy instant noodles returned, holding a box of freshly prepared noodles in one hand and a bag of chips in the other.

Seeing Gu Chen seated on her bed, she apologized with a smile.

"Sorry, could I sit here for a while to eat my noodles?"

This sleeping berth compartment had two rows with four beds each, but there was only one table, so everyone had to share a single table to eat.

Gu Chen nodded his head and moved over, taking a seat next to Ji Pianran.

The girl set down her noodles and handed the bag of chips to Gu Chen.

"Here’s for you, you didn’t get enough to eat earlier, did you?"

To be honest, the young girl, just twenty years old, thought Gu Chen was handsome, and since they were all in the same compartment, she brought him chips seeing he hadn’t eaten his fill.

She did like him a bit, but she had no intentions of seriously disrupting someone else’s family.

She didn’t even realize her actions were inappropriate.

At this moment, Ji Pianran’s heart was overflowing with jealousy, her face wary as she watched the young girl across from her.

Her instincts told her, she must like Gu Chen!

Otherwise, why care for him so much?

Even if she had caused Gu Chen to go hungry, that was a matter between the couple, what did it have to do with her?

If Gu Chen was hungry, she could buy him something else to eat.

Forget instant noodles, if he wanted to drink beer, she would even join him for a couple of drinks.

Her husband didn’t need this girl worrying about him!

She stared intently at the girl opposite her, with flickering light in her eyes and a somewhat aggressive expression on her delicate face as she tilted her head back.

"No need, he likes sour plums!"

After speaking, she stuffed the sour plums Gu Chen had bought for her into his arms.

Gu Chen was full of astonishment.

"?????"

He didn’t like sour plums, that’s something women eat!

He didn’t have a sweet tooth!

Before he could speak, he saw Ji Pianran turn her head to look at him, her eyes as brilliant as a galaxy but with a trace of frost.

And that sullen face that was staring tightly at him.

Gu Chen swallowed hard.

Was his wife feeling jealous?

His wife was indeed feeling jealous!

At this thought, an inexplicable sense of joy rose within him.

This was the first time he had seen his wife jealous, and her little expression was too cute.

If there weren’t other people around, he would have definitely hugged her and kissed her deeply.

Seeing Gu Chen not moving, Ji Pianran’s apricot eyes slightly widened, and her plump lips parted and closed in a pouting manner, she huffed, "Don’t want to eat it?"

Gu Chen quickly shook his head, his face the picture of seriousness.

"No, no, no, I just love the sour and sweet taste! These plums, they aid digestion!"

After tearing open the package and putting one into his own mouth, he took another and offered it to Ji Pianran, "Wife, have one too, to help with your digestion."

Ji Pianran: "!!!!"

What did he mean by that?

Was he implying she ate too much?

Just now that girl said she’d eaten a lot, and now he’s saying it too!

That’s too much!

She didn’t need to ’aid her digestion’ at all!
