Chapter 126: Chapter 126: This is not frivolity, it’s love! Chapter 126: Chapter 126: This is not frivolity, it’s love! Zhu Qianying tilted her face up, her expression clearly reading “Explain yourself!”

Flame’s gaze slid slowly from her face, down her neck, and finally to her collar.

His pupils deepened.

“Speak up, gone mute? Nothing to say?” Zhu Qianying urged when he was silent for so long, staring at his shoes.

Flame slowly lifted his head, his bottomless eyes met hers, and then he slowly opened his mouth.

“I used my lips, not my hands!”

As he said this, as if to prove his point, he leaned in while Zhu Qianying was still stunned and kissed her nose.

He found her blank expression, dumbstruck reaction with slightly open lips, increasingly amusing!

However, Zhu Qianying increasingly realized that the old rogue in front of her was exceptionally eloquent!

“Using lips doesn’t count as frivolous?”

Zhu Qianying pushed his face back. He was too close, his hot breath sprayed on her face, making her uncomfortable!

Flame straightened slightly, curving his lips as he looked at her.

“This isn’t frivolous, this is love!”

Zhu Qianying burst into laughter as if she had just heard the joke of the century.

Where in their relationship was there room for love?

Of course, she didn’t believe for a second that he was talking about true love.

The so-called love he was sprouting at the moment was nothing more than a means of flirting!

“Alright, alright, this isn’t frivolous, it’s love!”

Zhu Qianying laughed until tears seeped from the corners of her eyes, pushing back against his chest, trying to push him away.

To be honest, his closeness, combined with his sentimental words, was a dangerous cocktail for her. She was genuinely afraid that she might start believing these were his true feelings!

Flame stared at her, eyebrows furrowed. He didn’t understand why she was laughing so hard?

Zhu Qianying finally stopped laughing, ducked down slightly, and slipped out from under his arm.

“I’m really hungry, I’ll cook something, do you want some?”

Flame glanced at the wall clock. It was exactly four o’clock.

At this hour, he should have been in dreamland. However, because of this mad girl, his sweet dreams had been rudely shattered!

That being said, when she asked, his stomach did grumble twice.

“Alright, count me in.”

The two, who were just a moment ago at each other’s throats, were now amiably discussing what to cook. Both of them, however, didn’t seem to register this strange turn of events.

After freshening up, Zhu Qianying changed into a more comfortable outfit from her backpack. Flame also freshened up and followed her downstairs.

“Flame, you can rest a bit more. I’ll get you when the food is ready.”

Zhu Qianying didn’t like it when someone pointed fingers while she was cooking. Especially if it was an overly critical and picky man like Eldest Young Master Flame!

But as it turned out, she had thought too much!

Upon descending the stairs, Flame merely settled into the sofa with his iPad, keeping an eye on stock market trends and analysis, showing no interest whatsoever in stepping into the kitchen.

Flame said he wanted noodles. Zhu Qianying then took a packet of noodles from the refrigerator. Considering he shouldn’t have too much meat late at night, she diced some beef and tomatoes into small pieces and simmered them into broth.

After the noodles are boiled till they’re soft, rinsed in cold water, and put in a bowl with the prepared soup and a sprinkle of green onions, two bowls of steaming, fragrant noodles are ready.

Zhu Qianying has a big appetite, so the two bowls of noodles on the tray are of the same size. When she brought them out, Young Master Yan followed her.

“You can eat this big bowl?” He knew she had a large appetite, but they always ate around the same table, and he’d never seen her eat this much before, especially from a bowl so precisely filled!

And she was carrying two large bowls, obviously of the same size. Which meant this little girl ate as much as a nearly 1.9 meter tall man like him!

“Yes!” Zhu Qianying admitted without hesitation.

In her eyes, life was already so tough, eating was one of her few joys, if she couldn’t even enjoy eating, what was the point of living?

Young Master Yan’s glance quickly swept over her slim figure. “You eat so much but don’t gain weight?”

Zhu Qianying looked at him oddly, “Do you think I’m fat?”

Young Master Yan shook his head; apart from herself, he was in the best position to judge whether she was overweight! That touch, that sensation… it was truly wonderful.

Young Master Yan, consumed with adult thoughts in his head, didn’t say anything, meaning, they didn’t talk about whether she ate too much or was overweight. They entered the dining room, picked up their chopsticks, and started eating.

Young Master Yan ate slowly, but from his blissful expression, it was evident that he enjoyed the taste of the noodles.

But Zhu Qianying ate especially fast. Young Master Yan had only eaten half a bowl while she was already lifting her bowl to drink the soup.

Upon finishing her soup, Young Master Yan pointed to the drawer under the dining table.

At first, Zhu Qianying did not understand what he meant. On pulling open the drawer and seeing the wet wipes inside, she understood that this fussy Eldest Young Master probably disapproved of how messy she ate.

But in reality, she ate quickly but not messily. So, Young Master Yan was always amazed at how she could chew so fast. Did she have a motor in her mouth or something?

Zhu Qianying wiped her mouth and hands clean with the wet wipes, than sat on a chair for a while. Only after a bit did Young Master Yan finish his bowl of noodles.

Just as he was about to wipe his mouth, Zhu Qianying leaned forward, looking at his bowl’s remaining soup.

“Not finishing your soup?”

Young Master Yan gave her a curious look, “Who says you have to finish the soup while eating noodles?”

Zhu Qianying pouted, “Young Master, you’re wasting food, you know that?”

Unresponsive, Young Master Yan leisurely wiped his mouth with the wet wipe.

“Tsk, the soup is so tasty, what a waste!” Zhu Qianying glances at the half bowl of soup, then, raising her eyelids, she looked at Young Master Yan as if he were a criminal.

Seeing her act like this, Young Master Yan couldn’t help but laugh, pushing the bowl towards her.

“If you think it’s such a pity, you can drink it!”

Zhu Qianying frowned slightly and then widened her eyes at him, “Isn’t that disgusting?”

Young Master Yan shook his head with a laugh, “Isn’t it? You’ve eaten my saliva before!”

Zhu Qianying paused, then her face flushed crimson!

Young Master Yan, watching her face that was redder than the tomato soup in the bowl, felt delighted!

So, eating a midnight snack in the middle of the night felt this good!

He had always resisted getting out of bed in the middle of the night to eat!

“Do you always sleep that soundly?” The corner of Young Master Yan’s mouth twitched, he deliberately changed the topic, afraid that if they continued on the topic of saliva, Zhu Qianying would flip the table and leave!

Zhu Qianying shot him an angry glare, obviously, this topic was no better than the previous topic about saliva!
