Chapter 75 Unless You Want to See Them Divorce
Aya went to knock on the study door again.
The door of the study was not locked. Seeing no response from inside, she pushed the door open and went in.
Yu Chengbai sat on the terrace, with the light falling from above his head, and bent his head to copy the scriptures that he had already copied thousands of times.
Copied scriptures were scattered messily on and under the dark ebony table.
Some of them were blown into the house by the wind, and one by one, they fell everywhere in the room.
Aya put down the food, walked over, bent down, picked it up carefully, folded it and placed it on the table next to her.
Then he went to see Yu Chengbai, but was surprised to find that he seemed to be very abnormal today.
"gentlemen?"
"Um."
Yu Chengbai spoke softly, as if nothing had happened, and asked her softly, "Has Madam eaten yet?"
But Aya saw the messy and violent handwriting in his writing, which showed no trace of self-cultivation or even peace of mind.
Aya whispered, "No, my wife said he's not hungry."
"I'm not hungry either."
“…”
"Go out and get some rest."
"All right."
Aya served the food and walked out of the study disappointedly.
Mr. Yu has always been a very easy-going person, without any temper. No matter if he got into trouble outside or messed up something in the manor, he would never be scolded.
Because the teacher said that people are more important than anything else, especially more important than inanimate objects.
But facing Mr. Yu like this, Aya didn't have the courage to disobey his orders for the first time and ask about the matter between him and his wife.
Aya stood in front of the study with her head down, her fingers tightly gripping the tray.
Confusing, hesitant, and wanting to act impulsively.
She was hesitating whether to tell her husband that his wife was pregnant.
Would this stop them from arguing?
"What's wrong?"
Bai Wei suddenly appeared nearby.
Seeing her standing in front of the study door with her head down, without saying a word, he walked up to her and frowned: "What are you doing here?"
When Aya saw that it was him, she felt even more upset.
She knew that Bai Wei didn't like his wife.
So he turned his head and said lightly: "Nothing."
"Nothing, I'll leave."
"Wait a minute, um, how do you coax someone out of a fight?" Aya couldn't help but ask him.
After all, he has been with the master the longest, so maybe he knows some ideas.
"What?" Bai Wei turned around, thinking he had misheard.
"Well, the husband and wife seemed to have had an argument, and neither of them had dinner. I wanted to ask... how to mediate?"
"You can ask me about the fight, as for trying to stop it."
Bai Wei looked at her, his eyes clear, and said seriously: "Unless you want to see them divorced."
“…”
In the middle of the night, Ning Yan woke up because of hunger.
In fact, it can't be considered that he woke up from hunger, because he didn't fall asleep at all. Without Yu Chengbai lying next to him, his sleep quality dropped sharply.
Let’s go find something to eat.
Ning Yan struggled to get up, cursing himself for being an idiot in his heart.
Knowing that he was a glutton, why did he pretend to be noble and refuse to eat when Aya came to deliver the food?
Starve to death.
I groped my way to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and found that there were not many cooked foods, only some cakes, fruits and fresh vegetables.
But Ning Yan's eyes still lit up.
Yu Chengbai is extremely picky about food, clothing, housing and transportation, to the point of being extravagant.
He does not eat overnight meals. Fruits cannot be eaten more than 24 hours from the time they are picked to the time they enter his mouth. The requirements for seafood and meat are even more stringent, and cannot be eaten more than 12 hours from the time they die.
Aya said that he used to have a very sharp nose and could smell anything that took more than a little time.
I won’t eat it if I smell it.
It's only in the last few months that the problem has improved slightly.
After a while, he seemed to be able to bear it.
Ning Yan couldn't imagine how empty the refrigerator would be now if Yu Chengbai hadn't restrained himself in recent months.
Then he would really have to hold the refrigerator and cry bitterly because of hunger.
Only after showing off all the edible things in the refrigerator did Ning Yan feel a little full.
I was just thinking of looking somewhere else to see if I could steal some of Beibei's snacks or the cook's leftovers.
When he turned around, Yu Chengbai was standing behind him.
“…”
Ning Yan's eyes widened and the bread in his mouth fell to the ground.
The three tomatoes and a pile of raw potatoes in his arms also fell to the ground with a clatter.
One of the roundest potatoes rolled around for a while and then slowly stopped at Yu Chengbai's feet.
The air was eerily quiet.
Aya and Bai Wei, who were squatting in the dark upstairs, fell silent at the same time.
Aya turned her head in shock, opened her mouth, and asked silently, "Is this what you came up with?"
Bai Wei's face was expressionless: "Who would have thought that someone would steal food in their own home in the middle of the night like a thief?"
"..." Aya murmured, "It's over. I'm embarrassed for my wife. It's so embarrassing."
Open kitchen door downstairs.
Ning Yan bent down, picked up a tomato, and rubbed it hard on his clothes.
He handed it over and asked Yu Chengbai in front of him: "Do you want to eat it? It's quite sweet."
“…”
“…”
“…”
The person who should be most embarrassed is the least embarrassed.
He was like a thief who had stolen something and met the owner who came home. The thief was not panicked at all and even warmly invited the owner to enjoy the food with him.
This is a dull fool.
Yu Chengbai took the tomatoes from his hand, bent down, picked up all the vegetables that had rolled on the ground, and put them back on the counter.
Ning Yan also picked up the piece of bread that fell on the ground and was about to put it into his mouth when it was taken away by a hand that reached out in front of him.
He bit only air.
Ning Yan looked up and looked at him puzzledly: "What's wrong?"
Yu Chengbai said, "It's dirty, you can't eat it."
Ning Yan watched him throw the only thing left to fill his stomach into the trash can: "..."
This young master is out of touch with the world.
The eldest young master had already entered the kitchen, washed his hands, wiped off the water droplets, and went to the refrigerator to select ingredients.
While carefully selecting fresh ones, I gently asked him, "Would you like noodles? Tomato and egg noodles?"
Ning Yan was still worried about the bread in the trash can and didn't react. He was confused and asked, "What?"
"I'll make you tomato and egg noodles, okay?"
"Can you cook?"
"Hmm." Yu Chengbai asked him, "Do you want to eat?"

PS:
Ning Yan: Who understands? During those years when I was most hungry, I met my husband in the kitchen after a big fight just for a bite to eat. He conquered me with a bowl of noodles.
