Chapter 80

Just then, Veronica tried to contain her laughter. “Matthew, don’t tell me that you’ve never tried such noodles before in all your life? You have to mix it up before eating it. If you don’t, I’m afraid there won’t be any taste.”

She was in high spirits so she suddenly felt that his current behavior was exceptionally comical. In short, he was her source of entertainment for today.

“I don’t usually eat this,” Matthew replied with a sincere expression and he didn’t lie to her at all.

Upon hearing that, Veronica frowned and shook her head. “You’re not a regular human being.”

She walked forward and reached out to grab the cutlery from his hands before mixing the noodles. After she had mixed the sauce and the noodles evenly, she finally handed over the cutlery to him. “Try this again.”

And so, Matthew took the cutlery and glanced at her before scooping another portion to take a bite.

The first mouthful tasted mediocre.

Then, the next mouthful was acceptable.

Subsequently, he tried it a third time.

“Not bad,” he commented while scooping some more noodles to taste them.

Matthew’s table manners were impeccable and he ate refinedly while chewing each mouthful slowly. He ate the bowl of noodles as if he was eating a three-course meal in a fine dining restaurant. Throughout, he behaved very refined and elegantly, and it was quite a pleasure to watch him eat.

Meanwhile, Veronica sat across the table from him and she stared at him unblinkingly as he ate.

Matthew, on the other hand, continued to enjoy the noodles while glancing at her. Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling rose within him and he felt as if he was already married to a pretty little wife, who specifically prepared breakfast for him and then sat there watching him eat. The scene in his mind was warm, peaceful, and lovely.

The current sensation dissipated quite shortly but somehow, he yearned for it to linger on.

In no time, Matthew finished his breakfast.

As for Veronica, she suddenly smacked the table and placed a piece of paper in front of him. “Here you go. Please settle the bill.”

Written on the A4-sized paper were the words, ‘Large noodles-eight; fresh soy milk
