Qin Zhen frowned slightly. He noticed that Wei Xiao was treating Lin Qinghuan somewhat differently, but looking at Wei Xiao's calm and composed face, he felt that his idea was probably wrong.
Wei Xiao met Qin Zhen's persuasive gaze and raised an eyebrow slightly. What kind of look was that?
Qin Zhen turned her head away uncomfortably, avoiding eye contact with Wei Xiao. This man's aura was too powerful; she felt slightly inferior to him.
A woman in her thirties walked up to Wei Xiao with a smile and asked, "What kind of noodles would you like? We have beef noodles, spicy chicken noodles, and minced meat noodles?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Qinghuan's eyes as she said, "Boss, your shop actually serves beef noodles."
The female shop owner smiled and said, "This place is close to the city, so I bought the beef there."
Wei Xiao said expressionlessly, "Give me a bowl of beef noodles, without cilantro."
"I'd like a bowl of beef noodles too," Lin Piaoxue said.
Li Wei laughed and said, "Boss, give me a bowl of spicy chicken noodles."
Qin Zhen pulled Lin Qinghuan to sit down and asked, "Qinghuan, what kind of noodles would you like to eat?"
"I want beef noodles, an egg, and extra cilantro," Lin Qinghuan said.
"I want beef noodles too," Qin Zhen said.
"Okay, please wait a moment," the female boss said with a smile.
"Boss, do you have a restroom here?" Lin Qinghuan asked.
"Yes, just walk straight ahead and you'll see the restroom." The female boss pointed out the restroom to Lin Qinghuan.
Lin Qinghuan stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you, boss. I need to use the restroom." She then walked towards the restroom.
"I need to use the restroom too," Lin Piaoxue said, standing up.
Wei Xiao looked at Qin Zhen and said in a serious tone, "When you go out with Lin Qinghuan, don't hold hands. It's not good for her reputation."
Qin Zhen looked at Wei Xiao in surprise, wondering if this man was being too nosy.
Wei Xiao said seriously, "Lin Qinghuan is still young. Her grandmother is my grandmother's good friend. I am her older brother, so as her older brother, I should consider her needs to some extent."
Qin Zhen's lips twitched slightly. Brother, a brother who was completely unrelated to him. If it weren't for Wei Xiao's clear eyes, he would have thought that Wei Xiao had taken a liking to Lin Qinghuan and was deliberately picking a fight.
Li Wei glanced at Wei Xiao speechlessly. When did his boss become so nosy?
When Lin Qinghuan and Lin Piaoxue returned from the restroom, they sat down next to Qin Zhen and looked at Li Wei and the others, saying, "The restrooms in this shop are quite clean. Do you want to use the restroom?"
Li Wei stood up and walked towards the restroom.
Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao and asked, "When will your house arrive?"
Wei Xiao looked at Lin Qinghuan and said, "We'll let you off the bus when we arrive."
Lin Qinghuan rolled her eyes. This person was so bad at talking; it would have been better if she hadn't answered at all.
"Wei Xiao, be careful you won't be able to find a wife in the future," Lin Qinghuan said.
Wei Xiao's lips curled slightly as he said, "You don't need to worry about that. There's a line of men who want to marry me that stretches from one end of the street to the other."
Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao and said, "With your handsome face and temperament, there must be a lot of women who want to marry you. I just don't know if they are attracted to your face or your money, but I'm sure they won't be interested in you as a person."
"What's wrong with me? Am I that bad?" Wei Xiao asked.
"You're being so infuriating. They'll be driven to their deaths by you sooner or later," Lin Qinghuan said.
Wei Xiaowan smiled gently, instantly becoming much softer and more approachable, like a spring breeze. His handsome face seemed to glow, leaving Lin Qinghuan speechless.
Lin Piaoxue was also stunned; this man was really handsome!
Looking at Lin Qinghuan's dazed expression, Wei Xiao laughed and said, "Are you captivated by me?"
Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao and said, "You really are good-looking. If I didn't know better, I would have thought you were a woman."
Wei Xiao's laughter stopped abruptly, and he said, "Lin Qinghuan, your mouth is even more venomous than mine."
"I'm just telling the truth. You were already good-looking, but you look even better when you smile. You're more handsome than male celebrities," Lin Qinghuan said.
"Is he as handsome as your brother Qin Zhen?" Wei Xiao asked.
“He’s prettier than Brother Qin Zhen, but in my heart, Brother Qin Zhen is the best,” Lin Qinghuan said.
Wei Xiao said softly, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, that's exactly what you are."
Qin Zhen smiled happily and looked at Lin Qinghuan with deep affection. It turned out that she was the best in Qinghuan's eyes.
Lin Piaoxue looked at Qin Zhen's gaze towards Lin Qinghuan, which seemed to be dripping with tears. She was filled with both jealousy and envy. Why couldn't Qin Zhen look at her?
Wei Xiao looked at Lin Piaoxue's envious, jealous, and hateful expression, a hint of disdain flashing across his face, which quickly disappeared before he regained his indifferent demeanor.
The proprietress brought a tray to the table, placed it on the table, picked up the bowls of noodles one by one and placed them on the table, saying with a smile, "Please enjoy your meal." Then she left with the tray.
Lin Qinghuan picked up her chopsticks and said with a smile, "This noodle smells delicious."
As Lin Qinghuan spoke, she took a sip of the soup, and her eyes lit up. She hadn't expected it to be soup made from big bones.
Looking into Lin Qinghuan's bright eyes, Wei Xiao smiled, his deep, dark eyes sparkling. He picked up his chopsticks, started eating the noodles.
Lin Piaoxue looked at the golden fried egg in Lin Qinghuan's bowl, which emitted an enticing aroma, and swallowed hard. She wished she had added an egg as well.
Lin Qinghuan picked up an egg, took a bite, chewed, and swallowed. She said, "This egg is fried quite well; the outside is crispy, and the yolk is just cooked. It tastes good. Would you like to add one?"
"No need," Wei Xiao said.
Qin Zhen shook his head and said, "Fried eggs are too greasy, I don't want them either."
Lin Piaoxue originally wanted to add an egg, but seeing that Wei Xiao and Qin Zhen didn't add eggs, she felt embarrassed to ask.
Lin Qinghuan chuckled at Lin Piaoxue's aggrieved expression; Lin Piaoxue was truly suffering for the sake of saving face.
When Li Wei returned from the restroom, he said, "Oh! You've all started eating."
Lin Qinghuan saw Li Wei pick up his chopsticks and start eating noodles, and asked him, "Did you wash your hands after you went to the toilet?"
After hearing Lin Qinghuan's words, everyone turned to look at Li Wei. Li Wei's expression stiffened slightly, he glared at Lin Qinghuan, and said, "I washed it."
Wei Xiao glanced at Li Wei's hands, his eyes flashing, and said, "It's okay if you haven't washed your hands. It's not like you're touching them with your hands. When you're out and about, there's no need to be so particular."
Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao with disgust and said, "I didn't expect you to be so unscrupulous."
Wei Xiao said, "We can't force others. We just need to take care of ourselves. As for whether I'm particular or not, my future wife will know."
Lin Qinghuan said, "It will be really hard to find someone to be your wife in the future. I will have to remind you to wash your hands after pooping and peeing every day."
Wei Xiao looked at the fried egg in Lin Qinghuan's bowl, noticed the yellow yolk, and said, "The egg in your bowl is yellow, just like..."
Wei Xiao paused here, looking at Lin Qinghuan with a leisurely air.
"What does it look like?" Lin Qinghuan asked.
“Like shit,” Li Wei blurted out.
Wei Xiao smiled after hearing Li Wei's words.
