Chapter 263 Noodles
Chapter 263 Noodles

Although he didn't know what happened, Bai Yanliang's command-like tone made the driver subconsciously obey him.

The taxi quickly stepped on the accelerator and drove away from Qiujiang Road.

It was not until the alley was completely out of sight that Bai Yanliang felt that the vague gaze was gone.

Xu Zhifei kept looking at him. Bai Yanliang was not a person who acted without purpose. He must have encountered something extremely dangerous just now.

But since Bai Yanliang didn't say it on his own initiative, she didn't ask either.

The taxi drove towards Xu Zhifei's rented apartment in silence.

It was not until Xu Zhifei paid the money and got out of the car that Bai Yanliang realized that he had followed Xu Zhifei to her home.

"Can I stay here for one night?"

It takes a skill to be able to say to a single woman with confidence, "Let me stay at your house for a night."

At least Xu Zhifei had never encountered such a thing in his past life, let alone someone like Bai Yanliang.

Others avoided her, and she also deliberately avoided getting close to others, so... in fact, her social experience was not much more than Bai Yanliang's.

But the natural modesty of a woman made her remain silent and she did not agree.

This is obviously a misunderstanding.

Because Bai Yanliang always felt that Xu Zhifei's agreement meant not speaking.

At least that's how she acted when we were riding in the car just now.

So, he followed Xu Zhifei's footsteps and arrived at her door.

As Xu Zhifei opened the door, he stared at Bai Yanliang with a strange look, but Bai Yanliang was looking down and thinking about what had just happened and didn't notice at all.

Xun Weimo's Mercury Night disappeared from the alley as if it had never appeared.

This strange ability to modify reality is undoubtedly the work of the Abyss.

Dark Abyss took action against Xun Weimo...

The reason for the action is not difficult to guess.

That key, the key to researching people.

As agreed, Bai Yanliang handed the key to Xun Weimo.

There is a high probability that this key brought fatal disaster to Xun Weimo. Of course, this was also Xun Weimo's own choice.

He obviously knew about the existence of the Abyss organization, and... this man himself was not simple.

So compared to the fact that he was already dead, Bai Yanliang would rather believe that this was his plan to escape and go from light to darkness.

Another point……

The Abyss organization seemed to be getting anxious.

Although speed is of the essence in war and things must be done quickly, speed means insufficient thinking and an incomplete plan. This can be seen in both the action against Xun Weimo and the attempt to capture Wu Ji in one fell swoop this time.

Abyss...can't wait any longer.

This kind of impatient moment is the best time to catch its flaws.

Bai Yanliang was thinking about countermeasures when he suddenly felt his eyes light up.

He looked up and found himself standing in the living room.

It is hard to believe that this is a woman's room. The decoration lines are cold and hard, the colors are mainly black and white, and there is a humidifier and a cabinet air conditioner installed in the corner.

Standing in front of him was Xu Zhifei under the chandelier.

Under the light, her skin looked even paler.

"Why don't you grow some plants at home, like aloe vera cactus or something like that."

Although the dark tones in the room did not make Bai Yanliang uncomfortable, he still made a suggestion out of kindness.

"I did, but he died."

Xu Zhifei’s explanation was simple, but…it was not easy for her to kill both aloe vera and cactus.

Bai Yanliang had no intention of teaching her how to grow plants. He pointed to the sofa and said, "I'll sleep here."

Xu Zhifei looked at him, blinked his cold eyes, and said nothing.

She agreed.

Bai Yanliang agreed.

At this moment, a vague feeling of hunger came over me.

Come to think of it, they had barely eaten anything in the past two days. "Is there anything to eat at home?"

Bai Yanliang looked at Xu Zhifei.

Xu Zhifei seemed not used to having one more person in her house. She pointed to the kitchen without saying anything.

Bai Yanliang followed the direction of her finger and went to the kitchen.

Bai Yanliang was stunned by everything he saw.

The kitchen is very clean. Not just clean by sweeping, but really clean.

Because this entire set of cooking tools has never been used.

Bai Yanliang couldn't help but ask: "You can't cook?"

"Tat-tat--"

Xu Zhifei's footsteps hurried over. She seemed very dissatisfied. She stood by the door and looked at Bai Yanliang, with some intention of arguing:
“I cooked noodles.”

"Wow." Bai Yanliang opened the pot expressionlessly, "That's amazing."

The air around Xu Zhifei seemed to grow colder.

Bai Yanliang didn't say anything else. He opened the refrigerator and saw that there were very few ingredients in Xu Zhifei's house.

Apart from the noodles she mentioned, there were only eggs.

How did this woman get here alone? Does she eat noodles every day?
Confused, Bai Yanliang took out the noodles and boiled water.

Xu Zhifei looked at his busy back and felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The feeling was very strange, so strange that it made her a little scared, so she took a quick look and went back to her room.

Soon, a burst of fragrance came over.

Then, Xu Zhifei heard some noise in the living room, followed by a knock on the door.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

"time to eat."

Bai Yanliang's voice came through the door.

Xu Zhifei opened the door and saw Bai Yanliang swiping at something on his phone. Next to him were two bowls of noodles, emitting a rich aroma.

"Here you go, sit down."

The sound of the door opening made Bai Yanliang look up and greet him. Compared to Xu Zhifei, he looked more like the host.

Xu Zhifei walked over subconsciously and sat opposite Bai Yanliang.

A bowl of steaming hot noodles enveloped her whole body in the lingering heat, which was mixed with the fragrance of eggs, vegetables, white noodles and soup.

The secretion of saliva quickly and quietly accelerated, and Xu Zhifei couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"Don't just stand there, eat." Bai Yanliang had a cold face. In front of Xu Zhifei, he was too lazy to pretend. After all, she could see through him.

As he spoke, Bai Yanliang picked up the bowl and started eating without any hesitation.

The sight of him eating with relish made Xu Zhifei's cold eyes tremble a little.

She followed Bai Yanliang's example, carefully picked up the noodles, sniffed the charming aroma, and finally picked up her chopsticks.

As soon as Xu Zhifei put the noodles wrapped in soup into his mouth, his eyes widened slightly.

This is……

It was like a faint fragrance swept by the wind, softly spreading among the dust dancing in the sunlight.

The light, soft, fresh and mellow soup is filled with a hint of sweetness. The extremely elastic noodles shuttle through the aroma, and after absorbing the soup, they exude a unique noodle flavor.

It's not likely that the taste is incredible.

But it felt very familiar to Xu Zhifei.

That's... the taste of home.

When her mother was still alive, she often tasted this flavor.

Xu Zhifei put down his chopsticks and looked at Bai Yanliang.

She said nothing and went back into the house.

Hearing the noise, Bai Yanliang looked up, then looked down at Xu Zhifei's bowl.

Is she that hungry?
