C47

Soon, the steaming hot noodles were ready in the wok.

Lin Wanbai turned off the stove and was shocked when she saw Huo Changyuan standing there.

"Eh, Mr. Howe!" Thinking of borrowing his kitchen, he asked, "Are you hungry? "I've cooked quite a bit, do you want a bowl?"

"Alright." Huo Changyuan pouted.

After he finished speaking, even he was a bit surprised.

It seemed that he hadn't eaten breakfast for many years since his mother's death. Most of them were black coffee without sugar or milk, and the bitter taste spread from his throat to his stomach, giving him a refreshing feeling.

Huo Changyuan pulled open the dining chair and sat down, a bowl of steaming hot noodles appeared in front of him.

"You often make your own food?"

he asked, looking up, and seeing the experience in the way he had just witnessed her skill.

"That's right!" Lin Wanbai, who was sitting across from him, nodded and explained honestly, "Grandmother always told me that the things outside are expensive and unhygienic, so I can be assured that I've made them myself."

Huo Changyuan looked at the apron that she was still wearing. His eyes flashed, "There aren't many women that can cook anymore."

Hearing this, Lin Wanbai could only smile.

That was because with his identity and status, he was either surrounded by the Celebrity or a rich girl like Lin Yaoyao. How could he have a poor person like her?

Lin Wanbai looked down at her bowl and picked up her chopsticks. "I didn't know you were eating this. I only made one egg and split it with you!"

The egg was split open, revealing the golden heart of the egg.

She gave the bigger one to Huo Changyuan and habitually bit her lips.

When Lin Wanbai saw him staring at her for a moment without even touching his chopsticks, she misunderstood his disgust and hastily clarified, "The chopsticks are new, I didn't use them just now!"

"I haven't had enough of your saliva?" Huo Changyuan said slowly.

"?" Lin Wanbai choked on her saliva.

The steaming noodles were stirred up and the fragrance spread out. Huo Changyuan picked up two chopsticks and put them into his mouth without any change in his expression.

When he swallowed it down, Lin Wanbai, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't hold it in any longer. She nervously asked him, like a primary school student waiting for her teacher to approve her homework, "How is it? Is it alright?"

"Yes." Huo Changyuan nodded.

Lin Wanbai heaved a sigh of relief.

After finishing the bowl of noodles, Huo Changyuan knocked on the side of the bowl and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"No ?" Lin Wanbai was startled for a moment before realizing what he meant. She turned around and looked at the kitchen. "There should be only some soup left."

"Bring them to me."

"Yes sir!"

Lin Wanbai took his empty bowl and stood up, pouring out all the soup and water in the pot.

After seeing him take it, he used his chopsticks to pick it up and then picked it up to drink. When he put it down, not a single drop remained.

For some reason, she secretly felt a tinge of joy in her heart.

"..."

It was night outside the drawn shutters, and the office buildings were like crystal boxes.

After following Huo Changyuan, Lin Wanbai suddenly felt that she was no longer in a hurry.

In the past, if the company was working overtime, she would be very anxious, afraid that the manager would find a fault to deduct the money after being late for the part-time job.

When it was almost 8 a.m., the work finally ended and the colleagues in the department started packing up their things and left. When Lin Wanbai got out of the elevator, the male colleague who was usually beside her desk opened his mouth and asked, "Xiaobai, does your home live nearby?"

"That's right!" Lin Wanbai nodded.

"What a coincidence!" The male colleague smiled as he took out his car keys, "I want to go to my relatives' house to deliver something to them. It's also nearby, so I might be able to give it to you on the way!"

The male colleagues were very enthusiastic, so Lin Wanbai couldn't refuse and got into the car.

The road was not too congested at this time of the year. The bridge was very smooth and they would only stop occasionally when they encountered a red light.

There was a broadcast in the car, so the male colleague took the initiative to start a conversation, "Lil 'White, I feel it's really hard to talk to you like this outside the company! Every time you get off work, you will be the first to leave. I heard that you still have a part-time job to do tonight? "

"I won't do it now ?" Lin Wanbai smiled.

"Un, as a girl, don't be too tired!" The male colleague nodded and looked at her for a bit before asking casually, "Xiaobai, do you have a boyfriend?"

"Nope." Lin Wanbai shook her head.

But her body did not belong to her, and there was someone else in her heart.

Because he lowered his eyes, he didn't see the joy in his male colleague's eyes. "If there's none ?"

The phone in his bag suddenly vibrated.

Lin Wanbai could not help but interrupt him, "Wait a moment, let me answer a call!"

He took out his phone with the three words "Huo Changyuan" on it.

"Where are you!"

Once he picked it up, he immediately asked.

Lin Wanbai was a little taken aback. "Me?" "I'm in the car..."

"Whose car!" Huo Changyuan continued to interrogate him.

"?" Lin Wanbai frowned. She was confused, but still answered honestly, "A male colleague. He sent something to his relatives' home. He lives near my house. He can also send me off."

The other end of the line paused for two seconds before spitting out two words, "Get off."

"Huh?" Lin Wanbai was surprised.

When the car's whistle sounded, she could not help but look towards the reverse mirror on the right. Unknowingly, a black Bentley was following closely behind, flashing twice at her.

Lin Wanbai had been in this car before and knew who was in it.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wanbai could only tell her male colleagues, "Sorry about that, I suddenly have something to do. Let's stop the car by the roadside!"

Although his male colleague was puzzled, he still stopped the car.

Lin Wanbai thanked him and pushed open the door.

"Lil 'White, wait, it's your bag!"

Lin Wanbai didn't even take two steps before her male colleagues caught up to her from behind.

Patting her head, she reached out her hand to take it. Before she could say thank you, an electric car suddenly came by. When her male colleague reacted in time, he pulled her hand.

"Ah, thank you!" Lin Wanbai was shocked.

"You're welcome." The male colleague smiled warmly.

The black Bentley that had stopped next rang its horn consecutively.

Without guessing, she already knew who let him go. Lin Wanbai didn't dare to delay any longer, so she waved goodbye to her male colleagues and quickly ran towards the Bentley. Jiang Fang, who was sitting in the front seat, got off the car and helped her open the back door.

Huo Changyuan was wearing a suit and sitting at the back with his long legs crossed casually.

As if it was the end of some meal, his tie had been torn off, and his shirt had been unbuttoned to reveal his slightly protruding collarbone. There was a trace of drunkenness in his deep eyes, and the smell of alcohol lingered in the air.

Just as Lin Wanbai was about to sit down, her waist tightened up.

Huo Changyuan bit his lips lightly. A hint of sharpness flashed across his quiet voice, "Which hand did he touch you with just now?"
