Chapter 15: Green Hat

“Zhou Hang’s home is decorated very warmly. The house was bought early on, and during the renovation, that idiot asked his girlfriend Li Lingling very seriously what style she liked.

He truly saw Li Lingling as the future mistress of his home. Later, when Li Lingling became pregnant, Zhou Hang was overjoyed beyond belief.

Just as he announced to all his brothers that he was going to be a dad and celebrated his farewell to bachelorhood, eand even bought baby shoes, Li Lingling, with a bulging belly, completely cheated on this guy.

In the end, she didn’t even know which man the baby in her belly belonged to, so she had to break up with him and have an abortion.

Some people, on the surface, seem to be glamorous with talent, good looks, money and taste, but in reality, they live with a green hat on their head and eat noodles with Laoganma chili sauce.

Zhou Mushi struggled to sit up from the bed and looked at Zhou Hang, who wasn’t much better than himself. His mood improved a lot in an instant.

No matter what, he and Jin Yang could never have a child together. It would always be just between the two of them, without any hope for a child. Even if they were to break up, it would still be a clean and thorough separation between the two of them.

With a face full of disgust, he stirred the noodles in his bowl and asked, “Big brother, you’re giving me this to eat?”

Zhou Hang gave him a disdainful look and said, “It’s good enough that you have noodles to eat. I didn’t order takeout for you. The fact that I cooked for you myself is already the highest treatment. What else do you want?”

Zhou Mushi knew Zhou Hang’s abilities. This young master had always been spoiled, just like him, and relied on others to provide for his every need. However, now that he had learned to use the gas stove and not blow up the kitchen, it was truly not easy.

Although serving plain boiled noodles to guests may seem a bit stingy, it depends on who cooked the noodles. If an emperor or prince personally cooked a bowl of plain boiled noodles, it cannot be regarded as an ordinary bowl of plain boiled noodles.

Zhou Hang had indeed put in his best effort, but when the noodles were in his mouth, Zhou Mushi still found them hard to swallow.

Zhou Mushi had always preferred to eat firm noodles and had never had such soft and limp noodles before. Whenever he ate noodles, Jin Yang would make hand-pulled noodles for him on the spot and cook a rich braised sauce with plenty of meat and vegetables.

The person biting their chopsticks paused for a moment, with a mouthful of noodles that they forcibly swallowed down.

Zhou Hang has been busy all day, and now he’s really hungry. He sits in front of a plate of plain noodles and eats them messily. He notices Zhou Mushi’s mood, but he doesn’t want to bring it up right now.

Who hasn’t had a little argument or disagreement in a relationship? Jin Yang knows that Zhou Mushi is not to blame, and he knows it. Seeing him like this, he probably doesn’t even know why he’s upset. Jin Yang decides to give him some space and talk to him later.

They will probably make up soon. Maybe Jin Yang will call to pick him up before they even finish their meal.

Zhou Mushi silently swallowed the noodles in his stomach without chewing them carefully. When he swallowed more than half of the bowl, his phone rang as expected. He expressionlessly took it out and put it on speakerphone on the table.

“Hello, what are you doing?” A pleasant voice came through from the other end of the phone.

Zhou Mushi replied, “I cooked some noodles, I’m going to eat them now.”

“You haven’t had much of an appetite lately, don’t eat anything too spicy.”

“Mm-hmm.”

“Mushi, today is our third anniversary, and I made a gift for you with my own hands. I’ll give it to you when I come back.”

Zhou Mushi sneered, “I forgot until you mentioned it.”

“You silly boy, you forget every year, but it’s okay, I remember. Drink some soy milk after you finish eating.”

“Okay, you’ve been busy all day, so rest early.”

“Mm-hmm.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Hang felt like rolling his eyes. He angrily bit on the noodles in his mouth and vented, “Showing affection to someone who just broke up not long ago, don’t you have any conscience?”

Zhou Mushi ignored him and continued to swallow the noodles, but he couldn’t get them down no matter what he did.

He turned forty-five degrees, and Zhou Hang saw a clear parabola, then with a “bang,” the black phone sank to the bottom of their large fish tank, startling the two gold dragon fish worth several hundred thousand yuan in the tank, which swam wildly in all directions.

“Damn it, are you crazy?” Zhou Hang yelled, about to get up and fish the black phone out of his precious fish tank.

Suddenly, he heard Zhou Mushi say, “I guess he’s done sleeping with another woman right now.”

His voice was very soft, and he looked like a statue frozen in front of the table, but tears streamed down his face…
