I'm hungry...

Fu Xuan suddenly hummed softly.

Like a room where time seemed to have frozen, it was suddenly broken and started spinning again.

The sky was gradually darkening, and they hugged each other quietly for a long, long time.

Yu Chen said softly, "Then shall I go downstairs?"

Fu Xuan nodded and slowly raised his face to look at him.

In the dimly lit room, her eyes shone with a faint light. Yu Chen's eyes remained deep. He chuckled and leaned forward to gently kiss her thin, tender lips.

Fu Xuan did not resist and affectionately nuzzled his face.

Yu Chen took a deep breath, then suddenly pulled his arms around her tightly, as if trying to become one with her, and rubbed her soft body into his embrace.

He held me for a while before letting go of my arms.

Fu Xuan let out a soft breath; the intensely comforting hug was surprisingly relaxing.

This sense of realism is reassuring.

She let go of Yu Chen and climbed off his lap.

"I'm so hungry, hurry up!"

Fu Xuan tugged at Yu Chen's hand and acted coquettishly.

Yu Chen smiled and stood up, cupping her small face and giving her another kiss.

"Okay, I'll go cook right away!"

...

The moonlight streamed into the courtyard, warming the young girl's heart. A gentle breeze caressed her cheeks, lifting strands of her long pink hair.

Fu Xuan moved a small stool and sat quietly at the door, gazing at the flowers that Yu Chen had just planted in the yard.

The delicate petals of the flowers, bathed in moonlight, appeared even purer.

A tranquil atmosphere, a hazy state of mind, and sounds coming from behind.

The small house, meant for one person, has come alive with life.

Fu Xuan stared blankly at Jing'er before him, then suddenly stood up.

She paused for a moment, then turned and went inside.

Stepping into the kitchen, the enticing aroma fills the air, lingering on the lips and teeth, prompting the secretion of saliva.

Fu Xuan gazed at the tall figure with a gentle, dreamy look in her eyes, and slowly walked forward.

Hearing footsteps, Yu Chen said, "It'll be ready soon. I'll chop some scallions to garnish it!"

Fu Xuan ignored him and continued to move closer to him.

Suddenly, two small, fair hands reached out from Yu Chen's waist, circled around to his abdomen, and pressed against him.

Fu Xuan wrapped her arms around Yu Chen's body, pressing herself against him tightly.

Yu Chen stiffened slightly, feeling the warm, soft body suddenly leaning against him from behind.

Her arms tightened around him, and she buried her face in Yu Chen's back, taking a deep breath.

A familiar scent washed over him, and Fu Xuan felt somewhat dazed…

"Fu Xuan..."

Yu Chen opened his mouth, his voice a little dry.

She gently shook her head and whispered, "You keep going, don't worry about me..."

I just want a hug…

Yu Chen pursed his lips, suppressing the pounding in his heart, and quickly finished what he was doing. He put the lid on the pot and simmered the noodles, then gently pulled away Fu Xuan's small hand that was clasped around his abdomen and turned around instantly.

She leaned into his arms, and Yu Chen pulled her close, his hands tightening slightly. Fu Xuan wrapped her legs around Yu Chen's waist and hung on him.

He freed one hand, supported her soft buttocks, and lifted her up.

Yu Chen lowered his head and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Fu Xuan didn't reply, but instead rubbed her face against his chest before slowly raising her head to look at him.

"I just suddenly wanted to hug you, is that not allowed?"

She stared intently at Yu Chen as she spoke.

"sure…"

Yu Chen opened his mouth, his heart trembled at these words, and his mouth became even drier.

"Hungry~"

Fu Xuan pouted and sniffed, catching a whiff of the fragrance in the air.

Yu Chen carried her to the stove, chuckled, and pinched her cheek, saying, "Let's eat noodles..."

Prepare the broth, add the noodles, and sprinkle with chopped green onions.

White mist drifted out, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

The glistening, springy noodles are soaked in a broth that's neither too dark nor too light, with a few small green vegetables and scallions adding color to the noodles. The touches of green make the noodles look even more appetizing.

The warm-toned lighting illuminated the entire room, creating a gentle and comforting atmosphere.

Fu Xuan watched Yu Chen's antics without blinking, his gaze fixed on Yu Chen's face.

He stroked his chin and thought for a moment, looking at the big bowl of noodles, feeling that something was still missing.

Suddenly, Yu Chen's eyes lit up. He clenched his fist and slammed it hard against his other palm. He looked up at Fu Xuan and said:

Would you like two more fried eggs?

Fu Xuan smiled and extended her hand to him. Yu Chen familiarly reached out and rubbed his face against her small hand, looking quite pleased with himself.

Fu Xuan asked softly, "Do you want to eat?"

Yu Chen squinted, a look of satisfaction on his face. "If you want to eat it, then I want to eat it..."

Fu Xuan felt a little helpless upon hearing this. She wiggled her little feet and suddenly hooked her arms around his neck and pulled him over.

"Pick me down, and I, the Grand Diviner, will personally fry an egg for you!"

"The Grand Diviner is actually so kind to his subordinates?"

Yu Chen picked her up with a smile.

Fu Xuan raised his chin proudly and said, "Ordinary people don't get this kind of treatment!"

Yu Chen continued with a smile, his eyes almost overflowing with joy, "So that means I'm no ordinary person, Master Taibu~"

"Don't you understand now?"

Fu Xuan glanced at him sideways, her face suddenly flushing slightly. "Stop touching me...!"

"I didn't put it there on purpose so that you wouldn't fall, Your Excellency."

Yu Chen said with a serious expression, but his hand seemed to have its own ideas, squeezing it again before letting go.

Fu Xuan's face became even more rosy, but she only glared at Yu Chen before saying nothing more.

"Give me two eggs, I'm going to cook!"

"Don't get splashed with oil, it'll break my heart..."

Yu Chen arranged the two eggs like he was playing with walnuts, and, imitating Fu Xuan, hugged her from behind and handed them to her.

Fu Xuan shifted his body awkwardly, "Stay away, or it'll splash on you!"

"You were holding me like this just now, so why can't I hold you?"

Yu Chen said in a high-pitched, affected voice, "Your Excellency the Grand Diviner has a bit of a double standard~"

Fu Xuan turned and glared at him, demanding, "What did you just say about me?"

Yu Chen snorted, touched her belly, and pretended to be stupid.

"I don't know anything~"

"Yu Chen, be careful I won't let you go to bed tonight... um!"

Fu Xuan's eyes widened slightly, and after struggling for a few breaths, his expression softened, and he closed his eyes.

"...Phew~ That's great, I'm waiting for the eggs the Grand Diviner will fry~"

Yu Chen released her with a satisfied look on his face, gently pinched her waist with his small hand, and then turned and slipped out of the kitchen.

Fu Xuan leaned against the stove, panting softly, her face flushed with a shy blush, and her eyes glistening with tears.

The noodles on the side were still steaming with hot white vapor, and the pot got hot and suddenly made a crackling sound.

"That scoundrel..."
