Where did the noodles go?
Gu Fuqiao turned her head and saw a tall figure standing beside her.
Yan Zhen Guo was eating her bowl of noodles.
Gu Fuqiao smelled the aroma of the noodles, and her disobedient stomach protested with a grumble.
She gave Yan Zhen Guo a deep look.
For someone so well-dressed who steals another's meal, Gu Fuqiao just wanted to crush him and stomp on him twice!
But her full rage disappeared as soon as Yan Zhen Guo glanced over at her.
"The taste is not bad. From now on, you'll be responsible for all three meals a day," Yan Zhen Guo said, having almost finished the noodles in the bowl.
He placed the empty bowl directly on the table.
Gu Fuqiao remained silent; his cooking skills, at first glance, seemed okay, but after tasting...
Even without him saying it, she would have insisted on cooking herself.
But Yan Zhen Guo had eaten her portion too, which was too much!
"What's wrong?" Seeing Gu Fuqiao not speaking, Yan Zhen Guo asked kindly.
Gu Fuqiao glanced at him and saw Yan Zhen Guo's face was cold.
Her mind involuntarily recalled the fate of the female supporting character, Gu Fuqiao, in the novel.
She swallowed her annoyance quietly and shook her head, saying, "Nothing, I'm hungry, I'll make some more noodles."
As she spoke, she reached out to the rice barrel to get noodles.
"Pa-da!" Before her hand could touch the rice barrel, a strong hand directly grasped her wrist.
"I'm hungry!" Despite being afraid of Yan Zhen Guo, nothing could compromise when it came to hunger!
Gu Fuqiao looked at Yan Zhen Guo angrily.
Yan Zhen Guo looked at her as well.
His dark eyes seemed to be pondering something, staring at Gu Fuqiao as if trying to discern something from her face.
But Gu Fuqiao couldn't care less about what Yan Zhen Guo was thinking right now.
To her, at this moment, nothing was more important than eating!
She struggled with her wrist but found she couldn't move it at all.
The man's hand was like iron!
Gu Fuqiao was anxious: "Did I provoke you? You just took advantage of me! How can you turn your back on me over a bit of food now!"
Yan Zhen Guo looked at the ruffled Gu Fuqiao, for the first time feeling that whether this woman was beautiful or not, it was good to have a bit of temper.
Regardless of her changes.
Since she now had the awareness to be his wife, he should give her a chance.
"Gu Fuqiao, the secrets you knew before, I ask you to forget them. Since you are my wife, I will give you this opportunity. Just this once." Yan Zhen Guo said with a cold face.
Secrets?
After Yan Zhen Guo finished speaking, he released her hand, but she was puzzled.
What secrets?
Although, as the author of this novel, she had devised the backgrounds of the male and female protagonists.
But to say nothing of this novel being just a sketch, as a supporting female character crossing over, she didn't even have a plot golden finger.
She writes romance novels, and she never intended to delve into such highbrow stuff in her storyline...
So.
What secret could it be?
Gu Fuqiao saw Yan Zhen Guo's face so cold it could kill.
She decided not to ask.
To avoid causing more trouble later.
Whatever they were investigating was secretive; it's best to stay away if possible!
The secret had better include Yan Zhen Guo as well.
Seeing Gu Fuqiao not talking, Yan Zhen Guo grabbed her shoulder, pulling her closer to ask, "State your position."
Yan Zhen Guo's tone was stern, and the way he asked was a bit intimidating.
Gu Fuqiao, feeling weak from hunger, nodded repeatedly, "I understand, I understand."
She thought, since Yan Zhen Guo said so, as long as she had a good attitude, he shouldn't get tangled up over it.
Indeed, after hearing Gu Fuqiao's statement, Yan Zhen Guo let her go.
Once free, Gu Fuqiao planned to make more noodles.
But she was caught by Yan Zhen Guo again.
"Are you sure you didn't have enough?" Yan Zhen Guo pushed the noodle bowl on the stove towards her.
Just when Gu Fuqiao was about to burst with anger, she saw the noodles in the bowl and lost her temper.
She even felt a bit surprised.
"You didn't finish it?"
"There was a lot in that bowl, I just tasted it earlier," Yan Zhen Guo said from the side.
Seeing her bowl of noodles returned, Gu Fuqiao couldn't help feeling happy inside.
After all, it took quite an effort to cook another bowl using a mud stove.
Unexpectedly, this Yan Zhen Guo hadn't exploited her to the level of King Yan Jiansheng.
He still left her a portion!
Gu Fuqiao cheerfully carried the noodles out, but as she sat down and took a few bites at the dining table, Yan Zhen Guo sat down opposite her.
Yan Zhen Guo's sitting posture was always upright.
With a straight spine, eyes peering down, nose observing the heart.
"Why didn't you let Sister-in-law Wang accompany you to the health clinic today?" Yan Zhen Guo asked.
Gu Fuqiao, eating noodles with her own seasoning, felt great and said directly, "Wang Mei has ideas about you, you know... if I went with her, it would be a dead end!"
Whether Wang Mei could catch Yan Zhen Guo wasn't her concern, the female lead would handle the women around Yan Zhen Guo anyway.
Hearing Gu Fuqiao's words, a hint of amusement appeared on Yan Zhen Guo's serious face, but his tone remained icy.
"Then I'll accompany you to the health clinic later," Yan Zhen Guo said.
Gu Fuqiao looked at Yan Zhen Guo.
The smile in Yan Zhen Guo's eyes had disappeared, leaving a stiff appearance.
After some thought, Gu Fuqiao agreed, since as the male lead, Yan Zhen Guo's sense of responsibility was unquestionable.
A former wife is a wife, after all! And she's not yet past tense.
It would be unwise to drag Sister-in-law Wang and them along; being unfamiliar with this place, having someone to accompany her wasn't bad.
"Okay." Gu Fuqiao nodded.
Because of her injuries, household chores like dishwashing were temporarily handled by Yan Zhen Guo.
Gu Fuqiao enjoyed this leisure, taking a short nap until Yan Zhen Guo called her to go to the health center.
To speak of, this was Gu Fuqiao's first time seeing the world of the 1980s.
Feeling excited, she woke up immediately and quickly followed Yan Zhen Guo downstairs.
A car was parked under the building for family members.
"Mate, sister-in-law." A very young-looking brother saluted Yan Zhen Guo properly.
Though the young man appeared youthful, his voice was not small.
It was very resonant!
Gu Fuqiao was a little shocked; she watched as a young man much taller than her called her sister-in-law... She felt a bit embarrassed, touched her head, then showed a smile, saying, "Hello, hello."
"Cheng Zhang, get in the car." Yan Zhen Guo motioned with his chin.
Cheng Zhang nodded, opened the door, and got in the car.
He had heard that the captain's wife was pretty but difficult, reportedly a capitalist roader.
But just now, she seemed quite nice. She was truly beautiful! No wonder she could marry King Yan!
