After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 432 - 435: You Are Enough!【8】

Everyone walked over to the table and looked at the noodles and fried sauce. Huang Bo bent over and sniffed, "Wow, Beijing zhajiangmian, I haven’t had it in half a year."

With silver hair and an earring, Song Yi had a look of disbelief. "Are you sure this is from our fridge?"

"It probably won’t taste too good, but everyone just make do," Luo Xiaoqian said as she split two washed cucumbers in half and delivered them to everyone’s hands. "I remember Old Beijing folks like to eat zhajiangmian while biting on a cucumber, so I didn’t cut them up!"

Time was pressing, and nobody had much time for pleasantries, so they immediately picked up their own plates and began eating.

Two cucumbers, split in half, were just enough for the three young men and Leng Zimo. Luo Xiaoqian didn’t keep any for herself.

The three young guys didn’t notice this detail, and all rudely accepted the cucumbers, but Leng Zimo did notice.

"This is for you!"

He raised his hand and offered his portion to Luo Xiaoqian.

Looking up, she met Leng Zimo’s gaze and parted her lips to speak.

"What’s mine is yours!" Leng Zimo said.

Whether it was a gem of inestimable value or this small piece of cucumber, as long as he had it, he would give it to her without hesitation.

Luo Xiaoqian smiled, took the cucumber, split it in half again, and handed one half back to him.

"Half for each of us!"

Leng Zimo smiled, took the cucumber, and accepted his share.

Li Mingjie, the skinny boy with glasses sitting across, looked at Leng Zimo, then turned his gaze to Luo Xiaoqian. "Excuse me for asking, but... are you Miss Luo Xiaoqian?"

"You know me?" Luo Xiaoqian asked with a hint of surprise.

"No wonder you looked familiar," Huang Bo said as he lifted his face from his nose. "You are Li Mingjie’s idol; that guy’s computer wallpaper is all your photos."

"But now he can give up on that dream!" Song Yi laughed teasingly, comforting his brother. "The girlfriend of Emperor Leng; you better not harbor any unrealistic ideas."

"What are you talking about; I only like Miss Luo’s songs," Li Mingjie explained, his face reddening.

"Ahem!" Huang Bo cleared his throat lightly. "Cut the chatter and eat up. We need to get back to work after dinner!"

After dinner, everyone continued working, and Luo Xiaoqian took the initiative to clean up the table before helping tidy the kitchen, which left much to be desired.

"Shall I take you back to the hotel?" Leng Zimo stepped forward, took the garbage bag from her hands, and helped her carry the trash outside.

"It’s alright, I’ll make do for the night. Plus, I can make you guys some coffee or something... and I want to be with you," she replied.

The trip to the hotel would take more than an hour round trip, and she didn’t want to waste his time.

Leng Zimo gently kissed her on the forehead and didn’t insist, "Okay, but once I start working, I can get very absorbed and might neglect you. Don’t take it personally."

Luo Xiaoqian smiled. "Am I that petty?"

And so, throughout the whole night, the four men were busy with their tasks. Luo Xiaoqian practiced her dance in the backyard for a while before helping them with the coffee until the latter part of the night when she finally fell asleep on the sofa under a blanket.

Luo Xiaoqian was woken up by the men’s cheers. With her eyes feeling sore, she saw that they had all gathered behind Huang Bo’s chair. Curious, she asked, "Did you finish?!"
