Chapter 41: Turning Grief and Anger into Appetite



Wang Youyou's eyes were looking somewhere unknown, not at her at all.

On the contrary, Zhang Jingxu pretended to be calm while eating noodles, glancing at Wang Youyou and Xu Sanli from time to time, laughing secretly in his heart.

He was particularly curious and wanted to see how his young wife dealt with the suitors around Lao Lu, since Lao Lu was so popular.

Among Lao Lu's many suitors, Xu Sanli's personality is not the most powerful, but her methods are the most powerful.

I don’t know if my young wife is a match for Xu Sanli, but she stands on Old Lu’s side and will help whoever Old Lu likes.

Xu Sanli felt extremely upset when she saw that Wang Youyou not only didn't look at her, wasn't angry, but was also eating noodles leisurely.

After thinking for a moment, she deliberately said, "Wang Youyou, every egg I fry is different. I fried poached eggs for you and Captain Zhang, and soft-boiled eggs for Fei Ge. Fei Ge likes soft-boiled eggs the most."

Wang Youyou was still feeling carsick, and her mind kept replaying the scene of going to the toilet just now, so she had no appetite at all.

But she didn't want Lu Xingfei to accuse her of being picky, so she forced herself to eat two bites. Then she heard Xu Sanli say that she also had a fried egg, so she turned over the noodles underneath.

Sure enough, there was a fried egg hidden under the noodles.

She understood immediately.

It turns out Xu Sanli was just pretending to be pitiful! Such green tea tactics couldn't faze her at all.

Plus, she didn't want to waste such a good fried egg, so she put it into Xu Sanli's bowl.

And he said sympathetically: "Thank you, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known I had it too. You worked so hard to cook noodles for us, but you didn't even keep an egg for yourself. You are so kind to us! I'm not actually hungry, but I don't want to let you down, so, please eat it!"

Xu Sanli was a little slow to react.

She didn't expect Wang Youyou to be so bad and not play by the rules!

She had no choice but to pretend to be considerate of Wang Youyou and said, "You are so thin, how can you eat noodles alone? Take the fried egg back and I will eat the fried egg that Brother Fei gave me."

Wang Youyou said seriously, shaking her head in refusal: "I'm really not hungry. If I wasn't afraid that you'd get angry and say I didn't eat the noodles you cooked, I would have given you the noodles too."

Xu Sanli was stunned for a moment, unable to understand what was going on.

"Hahaha!" Zhang Jingxu couldn't help but burst out laughing!

My little wife is great! She is not impatient or anxious, and she responds to every move. She is very capable!

Lu Xingfei nudged Zhang Jingxu's waist with his elbow, signaling him not to laugh.

Then he asked Wang Youyou with concern: "Wang Youyou, do you have no appetite? Sanli's fried soft-boiled eggs are delicious. Come, have one?"

As he spoke, he picked up a soft-boiled egg and prepared to give it to Wang Youyou.

Hearing this, Xu Sanli lowered her eyes and was secretly happy, with a bit more pride on her face.

Who knew that the next second, she heard Wang Youyou say: "Thank you, if you like it, eat more! I don't have the habit of eating raw eggs."

Wang Youyou said as she pressed Lu Xingfei's hand down.

Lu Xingfei explained: "Soft-boiled eggs are not raw eggs, they are edible."

Xu Sanli also raised her eyes and took the opportunity to tease Wang Youyou: "Have you never had a soft-boiled egg? Oh, that's right! I heard that you never cook at home, and your stepmother treats you badly, so she probably wouldn't make you a soft-boiled egg."

Wang Youyou sneered in her heart. It just so happened that she really couldn't eat anymore.

She put down her chopsticks, covered her mouth with one hand, and pretended to sob, "Don't say anymore! You're right, I've never eaten soft-boiled eggs. My family is poor, and I have two underage brothers. When my stepmother has eggs, she gives them to my two brothers first. I don't blame my stepmother, I only blame my father. Why did he die so early? Wuuwuwu... I won't eat anymore. You guys take your time."

After saying that, she covered her mouth and ran into the bedroom and closed the door.

Lu Xingfei stood up anxiously and said disappointedly, "Sanli! You're eating well, why are you mentioning her stepmother?"

Xu Sanli was so angry that she wanted to cry but had no tears!

What's wrong with mentioning it? Wang Youyou was obviously pretending.

She wanted to explain, but Lu Xingfei was so angry that he didn't even look at her and ran to comfort Wang Youyou.

She had no choice but to look at Zhang Jingxu and said angrily: "Look, let me tell you! That woman is just a pretentious and delicate girl!"

Zhang Jingxu chuckled.

He could tell at a glance that Wang Youyou was pretending, and only Lu Xingfei was foolish enough to believe it.

He smiled and advised, "You two are quite entertaining, but if I were you, forget it. They're already married. Aren't you afraid of being labeled as someone who ruins a military marriage?"

"I won't tell you. It's impossible to understand you!" Xu Sanli was so angry that she turned her grief and anger into appetite and ate one fried egg in one bite.

Zhang Jingxu chuckled again, put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm going to the army now. Do you want to go to work?"

Xu Sanli thought he was laughing at her, and she looked at him with wide eyes in anger, saying in an unhappy tone: "You don't need to take me with you."

Zhang Jingxu stared at her and smirked, "Then take the bus! Old Lu won't be meeting the chief until this afternoon, so I have to drive the car away."

Seeing this, Xu Sanli had no choice but to give in: "Okay, okay! I have to go to work, you can give me a ride!"

Zhang Jingxu stood up and said cheerfully, "Okay! I'll leave the car with Lao Lu and let Lao Lu take you there. I'll take the bus myself."

He thought that with his little wife around, Lao Lu would not go to work with Xu Sanli.

Xu Sanli watched him leave, not knowing whether to be angry or happy.

Since Zhang Jingxu thinks Wang Youyou is good, she will have to join forces with Zhang Jingxu to break up Wang Youyou and Fei Ge.

On the other side, Wang Youyou ran into the bedroom and hid behind the door.

She guessed that Lu Xingfei would come to comfort her.

Sure enough, just as she hid herself, Lu Xingfei came knocking on the door: "Wang Youyou, open the door."
