Chapter 260: Miss, Is He Your Boyfriend?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Huo Yao brought Min Yu to the noodle shop before long. There were still very few customers there.
The noodle shop owner noticed that the young lady came back with someone else, so he laughed and said, “Miss, is this your boyfriend?”
Min Yu was yet to remove his mask. Although the shop owner could not see his face clearly, he could detect his dignified aura. He looked very compatible with the young woman when they sat down, so those words automatically rolled out of his tongue.
Huo Yao raised her brow. “You got it wrong. We are just friends.”
Min Yu slowly removed his mask to reveal his striking face. Since they were sitting outside the noodle shop where the light was not particularly bright, he gave off a dark aesthetic appeal.
The noodle shop owner’s eyes looked at both their faces before he smiled and asked. “More noodles?”
Huo Yao turned to look at Min Yu with her bright unsullied eyes and said rather generously, “What noodles do you prefer? It’s my treat.”
She could afford to pay for a bowl of noodles.
Min Yu’s lips twitched. He recalled the photo on her social media, which he saw in the car earlier. With a smile, he said, “The one you posted.”
“Sure.” Huo Yao looked at the noodle shop owner. “One big bowl of minced meat noodles. No chili, please.”
“Coming right up.”
After the shop owner left, Min Yu turned to look at Huo Yao and raised his brow. “How did you know I don’t eat spicy food?”
Huo Yao blinked. “A wild guess.”
Huo Yao glanced at Min Yu as he sat upright without even touching the table with his arms. She could not help sighing. “This place is pretty clean.”
“Sure.” Min Yu nodded patronizingly. However, his back became even straighter.
Huo Yao did not expose his true thoughts. Instead, she asked him. “Did Zhuo Yun come along?”
“He is parking the car,” said Min Yu indifferently.
Huo Yao touched her nose and did not go on talking. The noodle shop owner quickly came over with their order.
Min Yu looked at the big bowl of noodles in front of him and automatically frowned.
Huo Yao took a pair of chopsticks and wiped it with a tissue before handing them to him.
Then she leaned a little closer and said softly, “When in Rome, sometimes, you have to do what the Romans do. If you get too finicky, you will end up missing out on the good things in life.”
Her husky voice sounded slightly languid. Min Yu stared at the young woman beside him. Her slightly upturned eyes were especially beautiful against the night setting.
Min Yu was in a daze for a few seconds. Then he smiled and took the chopsticks from her. “There’s too much food here. Do you want to help me eat some?”
“Take your time. We are not in a hurry,” rejected Huo Yao as she straightened her body with a solemn look on her face.
Min Yu laughed gently.

Huo Yao paid the bill fifteen minutes later and left the noodle shop with Min Yu. Both of them put on their masks automatically once they exited the place.
They did not look around and walked over to the night market’s entrance before long, where they waited for Zhuo Yun to bring the car over.
“How did you manage to find the night market on your own?” asked Min Yu as he turned to look sideways at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao was replying to the comments which she had received on her social media account. She answered him without even looking up. “I saw a lot of reviews online mentioning that there were a lot of good eateries here.”
Huo Yao was puzzled. She had merely posted a picture of the noodles on her social media. Why did her older brothers suddenly start writing bizarre things to her?
Huo Tingrui: [Yao, don’t leave the hotel after 6:00 pm.]
Huo Xiang: [There are too many dangerous people out there. Yao, you have to be cautious and not step out alone.]
