Now it was Mo Yu's turn to have his mouth twitching. He seemed not to have heard clearly and confirmed in disbelief, "Sir, do you want me to take the Imperial Master to the dining room to receive punishment?"

The man raised his eyelids and said in a cold voice, "Is there a problem?"

Mo Yu: "..."

More than just a problem?

This is a big problem, okay? What kind of punishment is this? Is this still the adult he knows?

Bai Xianyu was also surprised for a moment, but not that surprised. Although she didn't expect that the punishment he mentioned was to make a bowl of noodles, but she didn't know why. No matter how good the reasons for Xie Xingyun's punishment were, there seemed to always be something deep in her heart.

A voice says, He will not hurt you.

But making noodles...she really has no experience.

She can make cakes, make wine, and make exquisite and beautiful food, but she can't cook and doesn't touch any meat or fish.

If you are making noodles, just leave the pot and cook it, right?

"Master Imperial Master, the dining room is here. Could you please make a bowl of noodles for Master Su?"

Bai Xianyu frowned and hummed, and Mo Yu cooperated and found the noodles and placed them in front of her.

She washed it with water, and Mo Yu helped light the fire.

While Bai Xianyu was busy, a man stood at the back door of the dining room.

Different from the daytime, even though Xie Xingyun was now wearing Su Qingbai's robe, his face looked nothing like before. But in this darkness, the oppressive feeling of the cold front could not be hidden at all.

He listened quietly to what was going on inside. The sound of the girl cooking, stirring, and chopping onions and ginger was harsh, but after only listening for a while, he became a little greedy.

Now, with Su Qingbai's identity, he could sit with her peacefully and stand under the same roof.

But if she discovers his true identity, where will the two of them go?

For her, the fire three years ago was a baggage thrown away, a relief, and a decision.

If it weren't for the fact that all her brothers couldn't escape, she would definitely not have returned to Kyoto.

Xie Xingyun's heart felt heavy and his eyes were dull.

Sometimes he would have the urge to hold her hand and ask her if she had ever thought of him in the past three years.

I also want to ask whether I feel more joy or pain when I think of him.

But when he saw that she was happily chatting with the "Su Qingbai" he played, and her smile was so beautiful, he stopped thinking about it.

She won't think of him.

He was not very unforgettable to her.

Xie Xingyun felt that she was a little ridiculous for being jealous of herself, but she couldn't help but think about how many men had surrounded her during the three years when he was not with her.

Has she fallen in love with someone else?

Thinking that the eyes that once only looked at him would one day look at other men, even his breathing hurt, as if there were many invisible stabs in his heart.

Xie Xingyun never knew that he would be walking on thin ice like this today. She was just a stone's throw away, but he didn't dare to tell the truth.

Afraid that she would refuse his help and that she would be in danger.

He was also afraid that she was still angry with him and wanted to have no contact with him forever.

Xie Xingyun leaned against the door and slowly closed his eyes, folded his arms, and clenched his hands as if torturing himself, but the dull pain coming from his fingers did not relieve the pain in his heart.

He held her embroidered brocade bag sadly, as if he could catch something in this way.

…

When the noodles come out of the pan, there is a layer of aroma floating on the surface.

Bai Xianyu took one look at the presentation and felt pretty good about herself. After serving it, she went to look for Xie Xingyun with her face in hand.
