Chapter 748 - The Man On The Tombstone (2) (1/2)

As soon as she sent her reply, Shen Liangchuan walked out of the kitchen with the bowls of noodles. He glanced at her and asked, “What are you doing?”

Guiltily, with a jerking movement, she logged out of the game and stood up. She walked to the dining table.

He had placed the two bowls of noodles on it.

The noodles were piping hot and, on top of the pale yellow strings, he had added two leaves of tender and plump greens, making it look extremely appetizing.

Qiao Lian’s stomach started rumbling again immediately.

They had had very little food during dinner and now they were famished.

She quickly took her seat and dug into the food with her chopsticks. She took one bite.

The soup tasted fresh and the texture of the noodles was lovely—overall, the balance of saltiness was perfect. In her famished state, she almost bit her own tongue.

Qiao Lian’s eyes shone and without saying another word, she gulped down her food.

She did not put down the chopsticks and bowl till she finished the last drop of soup. Then she lifted her head and looked at Shen Liangchuan.

The man was still eating and in a most polite manner. It was easy to tell that he had had the upbringing and training that could only have come from a prominent family.

Comparing how she had just been eating and his manners now, Qiao Lian couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

After the meal, she rested her chin on her hand and stared at him.

His eyes darkened and asked, “Want more food?”

She nodded immediately and said, “Yes.”

Without waiting for Shen Liangchuan to speak, she lifted her chopsticks at once and picked a noodle strand from his bowl. Putting one end in her mouth, she started to suck and draw the rest of the noodle strand in.

As though food tasted better if stolen!

Shen Liangchuan started to laugh too at this point and, playing along, he too picked up a noodle strand and started to suck it.

As they did so… they realized eventually that they we sucking different ends of the same strand!

Qiao Lian widened her eyes.

At the same time, the look in Shen Liangchuan’s eyes deepened and he stood up suddenly.Read the next chapter on our novelhall.com

Bit by bit, he sucked in the strand suspended between them, until at last there was only a hair’s breadth left separating them.
