Chapter 60: Eating Supper Together

"Nothing really!" Jingwei protests. "I just wanted to wake you up for supper! Look - I made noodle soup for you and I didn't want it to be wasted - don't kick me in the crotch -" Jingwei continues, giving her his best innocent, pitiful look and quickly points to the table to distract her. 

Xue Ning gives him a last baleful glare, her eyes narrowed in suspicion, before going to the table to take a look. She still holds the pillow in her arms, just in case he lied. 

True to his words, there were two bowls of hot noodle soup waiting for her. She could smell the aroma of the soup, and her stomach growled without remorse. There were fish balls, dumplings, vegetables, minced pork and… was that beef she saw lying on top of the noodles? 

That marbling made it look like wagyu, but there was no way someone would put wagyu on top of plain yellow noodles… right? That would be a ridiculous expense and luxury!
