Chapter 2082: Chapter 2092: Is He Having Pre-Wedding Jitters?
It wasn’t that she’d totally failed at cooking; it just didn’t look like the kind of food that would taste good.
The green vegetables clearly looked over-fried, and there was too much oil.
One could imagine what it tasted like.
"Come here." Li Beijue didn’t comment on it, just suddenly called her over. "Eat with me."
"I already ate. I ate with Grandfather in the Evening." After she finished, she took another look at the man who’d been frowning ever since he came in through the Door, thought for a moment, and changed her words. "Wait for me a sec, I’ll go grab a Bowl and Chopsticks."
Chi Enen quickly brought out a Bowl and Chopsticks from the kitchen.
She had just sat down.
The Bossy man had already snatched her Bowl, scooped half the Noodles from his own Bowl into hers, then handed it back. "Finish it."
Chi Enen stared speechlessly at the Noodles almost filling her Bowl, and couldn’t help reminding him, "Li Beijue, I already ate with Baby Chi and the others in the Evening, I can’t finish this much..."
The handsome, noble man frowned slightly and grudgingly backed off a step. "I’ll allow you to leave the soup."
Chi Enen, "..." And how is that any different from finishing it?
However, the person sitting next to her didn’t give her any chance to bargain further; he had already started eating.
Aristocrats are particular about Etiquette when they eat.
Not talking while eating is basic Etiquette.
Li Beijue himself was born into a top-tier Aristocrat family. When he ate, his posture was textbook, and once he began eating, he basically wouldn’t speak.
Chi Enen had gradually gotten used to not chatting while eating.
Helpless, she lowered her head and started eating the Noodles in her Bowl along with him.
She hadn’t lied; Today the Tomato Egg Noodles she made really did taste much better than what she’d cooked before. But no matter how good something tastes, if you’re already full and force yourself to eat, it just stops being that delicious.
Chi Enen was practically counting each strand of Noodles, eating painfully slowly.
When she finally made it to the point where the person next to her finished eating, she immediately stood up and started cleaning up the Bowl and Chopsticks. "I’ll take these and wash them. Li Beijue, go rest in the Living room for a bit."
After she finished speaking, her Action was lightning-fast, afraid that a certain person would notice that the Noodles in her Bowl had barely been touched.
Luckily, Li Beijue had things on his mind and was thinking about something else. He hadn’t noticed her little moves, and she had already taken the Bowl and Chopsticks away.
When Chi Enen finished washing the Bowl and Chopsticks and tidied up the kitchen, she came out.
At a glance she saw the man leaning back on the living room sofa, lost in thought about something.
The light hazed over the side of his Face, making his features look even more sculpted and refined, tall and handsome.
Only, those Heroic spirit eyebrows drawn together made it clear just how irritable he was at the moment...
Chi Enen’s Footsteps gradually slowed down.
This was the first time she’d seen this man so upset, and so absent-minded.
Even during that Li family crisis back then, he hadn’t seemed as distracted as he did Tonight. It was like something was weighing on his heart, making him especially uneasy.
But what could have happened Recently that would make him uneasy?
Chi Enen thought left and right, and thought of the wedding.
She furrowed her eyebrows, a little unwilling to believe her own guess, but this seemed like the only somewhat reasonable explanation—Li Beijue was having pre-wedding anxiety?
She’d heard Anxin mention the phrase "pre-wedding anxiety" before. It meant that a bride-to-be or groom-to-be would get so nervous as the wedding approached that they’d develop anxious emotions. In severe cases, there could even be things like running away from the wedding.
Anxin’s original intention had been to tell her not to develop pre-wedding anxiety, to relax more and not be so nervous.
