Chapter 2791 - 2784: Looking for Dinner

Looking at He Yue’s serious expression, Ning Chenguang had to compromise: "Then how about I go wash my face?"

"That’s fine." He Yue agreed.

Just as the two were about to sit down to eat, there was a knock on the door, three steady and unhurried knocks.

He Yue put down the chopsticks to open the door, and when she saw it was Zhan Xiche standing there, her face immediately fell.

The scene of her kissing her little brother was still fresh in her mind, and thinking about it made her feel very uncomfortable.

"He Yue, seeing your expression, I guess I’m not welcome!" Zhang Xiche said with a smile as she noticed He Yue’s fallen face, "Even if you don’t welcome me today, I’m still coming in. Is your brother here?"

"Do you have something to discuss with him?" He Yue blocked the door and asked.

"Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here." Zhan Xiche smiled as she gently pushed away He Yue’s arm and walked straight into the room, "Chenguang, Chenguang..."

"Xiche! What brings you here?" Ning Chenguang was just about to eat when he saw her and put down his chopsticks.

"There’s no one at home. I’m all alone and have nowhere to eat! I was just thinking about how delicious Aunt An Hao’s cooking is, so I came over to see if there was food." Zhan Xiche swallowed as she eyed the glass bowl of cold noodles on the table and pointed at them, "Can I sit down and eat with you? It looks really good."

"Of course, have a seat!" He and Zhan Xiche were both from the same compound and were friends, so Ning Chenguang didn’t mind her coming over for dinner.

But He Yue’s face turned a bit sour. She quickly moved the glass bowl aside with both hands and said, "Sorry! I only made this much, I’m afraid it won’t be enough for you."

"No way? You’re that stingy?" Zhan Xiche looked pitifully at Ning Chenguang, "Your sister’s not very generous, is she?"

"She’s just joking with you." Ning Chenguang said.

"I’m not joking. There really isn’t enough to eat." He Yue held tightly to the glass bowl without letting go. She had worked up a sweat in the hot kitchen to make these cold noodles, and she and her little brother hadn’t even eaten them yet. Why should Zhan Xiche get them?

There’s nowhere you can’t eat in this military compound.

There’s even a mess hall open to military families, and she chooses not to eat there but comes here for food.

Isn’t this clearly showing ulterior motives towards her little brother!

"So what now?" Zhan Xiche blinked innocently at Ning Chenguang, "You’re not going to kick me out, are you? I don’t want to eat at the mess hall; I can’t get used to it!"

Ning Chenguang, having no other choice, gave his portion to Zhan Xiche: "I can eat anything, take mine."

"This... isn’t appropriate, is it?" Zhan Xiche said, glancing at He Yue.

"There’s nothing inappropriate about it. Here you go!" Ning Chenguang slid his untouched bowl of cold noodles over to Zhan Xiche, "I haven’t touched it yet."

"It’s okay. Even if you had, I wouldn’t mind!" Zhang Xiche’s eyes turned to smiling crescents as she grinned.

"Then hurry up and eat." Ning Chenguang coughed awkwardly twice.

He Yue was very annoyed watching this scene.

This Zhan Xiche was clearly here to flaunt in front of her. If they were still kids, she would definitely have clung to her little brother’s hand to assert her claim.

But now, everything is so different.
