She came with the light

Lu Li asked Cheng Xiaoxiao in a hoarse voice, "Only one bowl of noodles for dinner? Is that enough?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded. "That's enough."

Lu Li sighed slightly and filled two bowls, one for himself and one for Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Then, Lu Li took two more pairs of chopsticks and placed them on the dining table.

"Go wash your hands, then come over to eat." Lu Li pointed to the restroom next to him.

When Cheng Xiaoxiao went to the bathroom, Lu Li happened to see two bottles of red wine on the shelf next to her.

He took a look at it and felt it was pretty good. He thought Cheng Xiaoxiao would like it too, so he opened it directly.

Eat instant noodles with red wine.

Lu Li had done this kind of thing before, except when he was studying abroad. He had never done anything so outrageous in his life.

However, in today's environment, it would be nice to have something to eat.

Lu Li was not particularly picky about food. As long as the food was healthy, he didn't want to eat junk.

Cheng Xiaoxiao likes to go out and eat delicious food to satisfy her appetite.

When they were young, Lu Li often accompanied Cheng Xiaoxiao. At first, Cheng Xiaoxiao thought that Lu Li also liked her and went out with her just because he was greedy.

Later, on one occasion, the two of them went out to find delicious food together and chatted for a long time. Only then did Cheng Xiaoxiao realize that Lu Li didn't really like delicious food.

It was because Cheng Xiaoxiao liked it that he always accompanied Cheng Xiaoxiao to eat this and that.

When he grew up a little bit more, Lu Li learned how to cook because of Cheng Xiaoxiao's hobbies. He also learned how to make Western dishes, which gave him the skills to become a chef.

It wasn't because Lu Li liked it, but because Cheng Xiaoxiao liked it, so Lu Li went to learn it and mastered it.

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't know this.

Lu Li never thought about telling Cheng Xiaoxiao about this.

Lu Li felt that if he liked someone, it was his own business, and it was also something he should do well.

As long as it is something Cheng Xiaoxiao likes, Lu Li will try his best to do it.

Cheng Xiaoxiao washed her hands and walked to the dining table.

She saw that the table was already set with dishes and cooked noodles.

The noodle soup is rich and has a pleasant aroma.

Cheng Xiaoxiao had been busy all day and was indeed hungry. Looking at the fragrant noodles, she felt like drooling.

This day was really tense.

Before, Cheng Xiaoxiao was with Lu Li and Xiao Lin, talking and laughing, and she didn't realize it.

At this moment, Cheng Xiaoxiao washed her hands and sat down at the dining table. She felt relaxed in her heart and became relaxed as well.

Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that she was indeed a little tired.

Lu Li had been paying attention to Cheng Xiaoxiao since she came over from a distance.

He saw Cheng Xiaoxiao pull out a chair and sit down. She became more relaxed and no longer tense.

Lu Li also noticed the change in Cheng Xiaoxiao's expression.

Cheng Xiaoxiao rubbed her brows almost imperceptibly, but this small action did not escape Lu Li's eyes.

Lu Li's gaze lingered on Cheng Xiaoxiao all the time.

"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Lu Li felt a little distressed and finally couldn't help but ask.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes were full of surprise. She didn't expect that her small action was seen by Lu Li. Cheng Xiaoxiao's heart was full of gratitude.

"It's okay. I just feel a little tired after sitting here." Cheng Xiaoxiao replied while looking at the hot noodles.

Lu Li pointed at the noodles in the bowl and said, "Eat quickly. After you're full, take a shower and rest."

Cheng Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat when she suddenly heard Lu Li mention taking a shower.

Lu Li didn't think about anything at this moment.

He really wanted Cheng Xiaoxiao to take a bath and have a good sleep.

Although Lu Li didn't see it, he knew how busy and running around Cheng Xiaoxiao would be in the past few days for his affairs.

Lu Li felt distressed when he saw Cheng Xiaoxiao like this.

Lu Li's heart was filled with pity and love.

There was an unspeakable sadness in Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes, which made people want to hug her and give her warmth and comfort.

He recalled their childhood, when Cheng Xiaoxiao's smile was as bright as the sun, lighting up Lu Li's heart.

However, now she has become much calmer and less lively, like a bright star that has lost its luster.

Lu Li couldn't help but feel a surge of guilt.

He regretted not being in her life earlier and being there for her.

He regretted that he lost contact with Cheng Xiaoxiao after going abroad.

He also regretted his sudden loss of contact this time, which made Cheng Xiaoxiao so busy.

Fortunately, everything is slowly returning to normal.

The private detective is still investigating Lu Li’s mother’s case.

Lu Li's safety was also guaranteed to some extent.

Cheng Xiaoxiao in front of him reminded Lu Li of the happy times they had spent together.

At that time, they walked side by side on the small road in the town.

They talked about each other's dreams and future, laughing constantly, as if time had stopped at that moment.

However, things are impermanent.

The ruthless tricks of fate have made them lose the laughter and joy they once had.

Lu Li looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao with heartache, and secretly made up his mind that he would use his own strength to make Cheng Xiaoxiao's life shine again.

Lu Li wanted to hold Cheng Xiaoxiao's hand tightly and tell her: Don't be afraid, from now on, with him by her side, all difficulties will no longer be a problem.

Lu Li believed that as long as they walked hand in hand, they would be able to overcome the torture of fate and regain those good times.

Cheng Xiaoxiao smelled the fragrant noodles and started eating.

A smile of joy unconsciously appeared on Cheng Xiaoxiao's lips.

She couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and start tasting the bowl of mouth-watering noodles.

The aroma of instant noodles filled the air, which reminded Cheng Xiaoxiao of the delicious food she had tasted at Lu Li's house when she was a child.

At that time, during every festival, Lu Li's mother would always cook a bowl of hearty noodles for Lu Li.

That bowl of noodles must be topped with meat slices, vegetables and eggs.

Every time Cheng Xiaoxiao went to Lu Li's house for dinner, Lu Li's mother would always cook a bowl of this dish herself.

Strangely enough, neither the aunt from Lu Li's family nor the aunt from Cheng Xiaoxiao's family could make this kind of taste.

Thinking back on the past, Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

Now, she hasn't eaten noodles of this flavor for a long time.

When Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly ate this bowl of noodles today, she suddenly found that the taste of this bowl of instant noodles was very similar to the ones made by Lu Li’s mother.

Maybe Lu Li didn't notice this, but Cheng Xiaoxiao noticed it.

This bowl of noodles seemed to bring Cheng Xiaoxiao back to her carefree childhood.

Cheng Xiaoxiao savored the taste of the noodles and felt the familiar aroma.

However, Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't say anything to Lu Li because she was afraid of bringing up Lu Li's sad memories.

After all, Lu Li’s mother’s issue has not been resolved yet.

Now is not the time for Cheng Xiaoxiao to speak.

Lu Li stared at Cheng Xiaoxiao intently...

I saw Cheng Xiaoxiao lowering her head slightly, her eyelashes were long and thick, and were still trembling slightly.

There were some loose hairs scattered on her forehead, dancing up and down mischievously with Cheng Xiaoxiao's movements.

Lu Li gently raised his hand and carefully tucked the loose hair on Cheng Xiaoxiao's forehead behind her ears.

Cheng Xiaoxiao just raised her head, glanced at Lu Li, and then started eating.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Cheng Xiaoxiao became even hungrier, even though it was just a bowl of noodles that couldn't be more ordinary.

"You should eat faster. The noodles will get cold soon." Cheng Xiaoxiao held a mouthful of noodles in her mouth, her cheeks puffy, and she was still mumbling.

The corners of Lu Li's mouth lifted up unconsciously, "Okay."

He took the chopsticks in his hand and began to eat slowly.

The instant noodles cooked by Lu Li were indeed very fragrant, but he had no appetite.

If Lu Li didn't have to accompany Cheng Xiaoxiao for dinner, he probably wouldn't eat anything tonight.

Originally, Lu Li wanted to do something tonight, but seeing Cheng Xiaoxiao so tired, he really couldn't bear it.

Lu Li thought that he should let Cheng Xiaoxiao have a good rest.

As for other things, we’ll talk about them later.

There is ample time.

Thinking of this, Lu Li took a wine glass and poured himself a glass of red wine.

Lu Li picked up the wine glass and shook it gently.

He watched the red wine ripple in the glass, and his mood became happier.

"Do you want it?" Lu Li asked Cheng Xiaoxiao tentatively.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was still eating hard at this moment.

She enjoyed every bite of food.

Lu Li's cooking skills are really great. He can make simple instant noodles so delicious.
