Seeing the dining table laden with dishes, Ning Ran felt her stomach growl with hunger.

She had planned to eat noodles yesterday night, but she only ended up eating them this morning.

However, as she peered into the bowl of noodles Nan Chen had prepared, she felt rather stunned.

The noodles had been overcooked, which wouldn’t have been a problem in itself. However, Nan Chen hadn’t washed them with cold water, which resulted in the noodles clumping together into unsightly lumps.

She took a bite and almost spat it out. The taste was abhorrent.

Ning Ran looked at the fried eggs. They were very clearly burnt. As she placed a small mouthful into her mouth, she could feel a bitter taste on her tongue.

Ning Ran then drank some of the soup. “Not bad.”

Nan Chen put down his chopsticks, looking very despondent.

He had done his best. He had spent nearly forty minutes in the kitchen trying to whip up something edible, but the results were disappointing.

“It’s not too bad! I see some improvements,” Ning Ran said, smiling.

“Then you can finish it,” Nan Chen said, sulking.

Ning Ran felt startled. Is he being serious? The food’s so badly cooked that even dogs might turn their noses up at it.

“Sure! If you finish your portion, I’ll finish mine too,” Ning Ran said, fighting to keep a straight face.

“No thanks. I’ll just have some water.”

“Now that won’t do! You spent so long making this. You should enjoy the fruits of your hard work.”

“I can’t stomach this at all, but if you think it’s not bad, you can finish the entire table of dishes.”

Ning Ran burst into laughter. “I was merely praising you out of politeness, did you think I was serious? Are these noodles or noodle balls? Can’t you tell when you’ve overcooked the noodles?”

“I’ll try again. I’m sure I’ll be able to do this properly.” Nan Chen stood up from his seat, looking very displeased.

“That’s enough. If you end up cooking another bowl of noodle lumps, I might starve to death. I’ll do it,” Ning Ran said quickly.
