The Actor’s Ex-wife

Chapter 16

She was wearing a long pajama dress that covered her ankles, revealing only a section of her white wrist, and her slender fingertips looked as if they would break at the slightest touch. Although her stomach was growling with hunger, Jian You still sat down and wanted to hear what he had to say.

"What are you doing downstairs in the middle of the night?" Shen Xiao asked her. He was actually afraid that she would sleepwalk due to illness, so he wanted to confirm whether she was really awake.

"I'm hungry and want to find something to eat." Jian You answered honestly and glanced around. The living room was too big. Sitting here, the two of them felt empty, as if they could even talk. echo.

"Can you still sleep after eating in the middle of the night?" Shen Xiao looked at her with some doubts. As far as he knew, Jian You's digestive system was not very good, and eating at this time was definitely not good for his health.

“But I’m so hungry that I can’t sleep?” Jian You blinked. If she expected to be too hungry to sleep, she would rather eat a full meal.

This answer seems to make sense...?

Shen Xiao was stunned for a moment, then said after a pause: "Oh, go ahead." He turned his head and raised his chin towards the kitchen.

Jian You hurriedly stood up, thumping her slippers on the floor, her steps brisk and joyful.

The double-door refrigerator in the kitchen is stocked with various ingredients. But the Shen family has the habit of not eating overnight meals, and all the meals from last night have been taken care of. Jian You rummaged in the refrigerator for a long time and finally found a half-cooked beef brisket inside.

 She quickly washed two tomatoes, poured two spoonfuls of beef brisket into a non-stick pan, added water and put it on the gas stove to cook. Then she sliced ​​the tomatoes, put them into the soup, and simmered slowly.

The Shen family didn’t even have instant noodles, but they did have Japanese udon, and the tomato beef brisket with udon noodles was also delicious, so Jian You temporarily put aside the disappointment of not finding it. When she was rubbing her belly and waiting for the noodles to be cooked, she turned around and saw Shen Xiao leaning sideways against the sliding door of the kitchen.

"If you want to eat too, can I add more?" Jian You asked him uncertainly.

"No need." Shen Xiao lowered his eyes. He is currently working out to film a new drama. Controlling his diet is the key.

"Okay." Jian You looked regretful, but she was very happy in her heart. She was not willing to feed the scumbag!

 The noodles were ready very quickly. Jian You couldn't even wait to take them out of the pot, so she just brought them to the table and ate them.

 The aroma of tomato beef brisket filled the whole kitchen, and Jian You moved her index finger. It was so delicious! The beef brisket from rich people is very delicious, cooked to perfection, and it will become rotten after just chewing it!

Looking at Jian You devouring the food, Shen Xiao began to regret his decision. He would not die if he took one more bite, or he would have to spend another two hours in the gym. He stared at the hard-working Jian You with some resentment, feeling that his internal organs were constantly protesting. However, he was still patient and sat opposite Jian You.

 “You get up in the middle of the night just to eat the next bowl of noodles?”

Jian You nodded, "I can't sleep when I'm hungry, and besides, I've already had enough sleep." Jian You, who was attracted by the delicious food, had completely put down her guard against Shen Xiao. In her opinion, Shen Xiao didn't have what she had in her hands now. Pot noodles are important.

“Yuyou, you are very different today.” Shen Xiao finally said what he was thinking.

"Really? Is it different?" Jian You raised her eyelids and glanced at Shen Xiao in her busy schedule, and said lazily: "Just because you saw me getting up in the middle of the night and eating a bowl of noodles, you think I'm different?"

After Jian You finished speaking, he lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, and continued: "You haven't seen it before, just because you never go home."

 One sentence touched Shen Xiao's sore spot, and the conversation between the two finally came to an end.

 “You eat slowly, I’m leaving.”

 Looking at the other person's satisfying meal, while he was undergoing the test of hunger, Shen Xiao finally couldn't help it, raised his head and said to Jian You.

At this time, a noodle was hanging from the corner of Jian You's mouth. She slurped lightly, and the noodle quickly entered her mouth in a beautiful arc. After the soup and noodles were submerged, she shouted at Shen Xiao's back. Said: "You...are you just leaving like this?"

Shen Xiao didn't look back, and Jian You's face turned secretly happy. It's good to be gone. I feel relieved when you are gone.

Just when she was laughing and happy in her heart, Shen Xiao suddenly turned around and said to her: "If you are bored in the future, you can go shopping and buy things. Don't just stay at home and read novels. Those things in novels are all lies." of."

Jian You hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to continue eating noodles, but she secretly cursed in her heart: All the things in the novel are all lies? Don't tell me that if the novel portrays you as a scumbag, then you are no longer a scumbag?
