disgusting way.” Lin Ruoxi put the pot of congee by her side, then lowered her head and continued eating.
“Do you need to go that far for just a small bowl of congee…….” muttered Yang Chen, then he suddenly thought of something, laughed and asked, “Ruoxi, could it be that you’re angry because I didn’t return home last night?”
Lin Ruoxi didn’t even raise her head as she coldly said, “I’m not interested in your trivial affairs.”
“Then why won’t you let me eat the congee!” Yang Chen was bewildered.
“Wang Ma cooked this for me, you settle your own food.”
Yang Chen hesitated for a while, and he felt that forcefully snatching the congee to eat would be excessive. Remembering that he promised all his female colleagues that he would bring breakfast, he didn’t continue teasing her.
Yang Chen went upstairs to change his clothes, then prepared to leave home.
When Wang Ma saw Yang Chen about to leave, she curiously asked, “Why not eat a little more, Young Master? There’s still some steamed buns left.”
“Oh, I have some things to take care of this morning, I’ll just eat out.” Yang Chen glanced at the large pot of coriander congee with reluctance, but still left in the end.
Wang Ma sighed, walked to Lin Ruoxi’s side and heartfully said, “Miss, Young Master is a good person, the two of you, man and wife should live harmoniously, don’t be so opposing of Young Master anymore.”
Lin Ruoxi’s hands stopped, and she plainly said, “Don’t worry anymore Wang Ma, if he wants to eat out, then let him eat out, as he pleases.”
“He’s a man after all, and when they’re young they’re more playful. Miss if you just treat Young Master a little better, how can those women outside compare with Miss? When that happens, Young Master won’t stay out for a whole night anymore.” Wang Ma persuaded patiently.
It seemed as if Lin Ruoxi could listen no more, she stood up and put down the chopsticks, “Wang Ma, I’m full, I’m going to work.”
Seeing how Lin Ruoxi was no longer willing to speak about it, Wang Ma knew the short-tempered Miss had grown impatient, and could only sigh. Then she began clearing the table.
The episode that morning did not affect Yang Chen’s mood, he listened to the morning news while driving to west region’s market. He parked nearby, then moved to where his lamb skewer stall used to be, and began purchasing various kinds of breakfast.
