Chapter 1034: Cen Mo Had Already Investigated Everything Very Clearly
“Let me know when Song Yao wakes up later! She shouldn’t have any problem with it…” Cen Mo asked Lin Nuan, “What do you want to have for breakfast? I’ll prepare your and Song Yao’s breakfast later!”
Lin Nuan wrapped her coat around herself tightly and looked at Cen Mo with a disbelieving glance, smiling softly. “Is it edible?”
Cen Mo was rendered speechless.
“I tried it. The taste really isn’t bad!” Fu Huai’an held back his smile and said honestly to Lin Nuan.
Cen Mo was the first to wake up today, and he got Fu Huai’an’s chef to prepare a sunny side up and bacon. However, the food didn’t turn out to his liking, so he decided to prepare the food personally!
He had just brought the food to the table and hadn’t eaten it when he saw Fu Huai’an coming down the stairs. Out of politeness, he asked Fu Huai’an if he wanted to have a taste of the breakfast he made. He hadn’t expected Fu Huai’an to really eat it without standing on ceremony.
Therefore, Cen Mo had pulled Fu Huai’an out to play golf, wanting to oppress Fu Huai’an. However, Fu Huai’an ended up being a great golfer, being on par with him.
“What do you want to eat?” Cen Mo asked Lin Nuan, seeming to be bent on cooking for his younger sister today.
Song Yao’s voice was the first to ring out. “Nuan Nuan, the steamed egg your brother makes is the best! His tomato egg noodles are also excellent. If you eat a bowl of that when you wake up in the morning, you’ll definitely be in a good mood for the entire day. The tomato egg noodles that your brother makes are different from those other people make. The clear soup is poured onto the egg that is fried until the yolk is still runny, and the thin slices of tomato and the decorative chopped green onion flip over after being scorched by the soup. You won’t even see a hint of oil. The taste is definitely smooth and delicious. Although the soup looks clear, what you experience in your mouth will definitely challenge your taste buds! It’ll be as if a flower has bloomed on the tip of your tongue! It’s extremely delicious!”
Lin Nuan couldn’t help but salivate just from hearing about the delicacy Song Yao described.
Cen Mo had made the dish for Song Yao when she was showing signs of morning sickness. Back then, Song Yao’s stomach would churn no matter what she ate… but when she ate those noodles, her stomach was miraculously conquered, behaving itself and digesting the noodles, not creating any trouble.
In Song Yao’s words, Cen Mo had further conquered her stomach after having conquered her heart.
Lin Nuan nodded and said to Cen Mo, “Then I’ll listen to Song Yao and pick tomato egg noodles! I’ll have the steamed egg tomorrow.”
Lin Nuan had special feelings toward tomato egg noodles. The one meal that Ji Yun, her birth mother, had made for her was tomato egg noodles. Now, the first meal that her real brother was going to make for her was also tomato egg noodles.
Cen Mo nodded. “Alright, wait for me…”
Cen Mo looked toward Song Yao as if wanting to ask what she wanted to eat.
“I also want tomato egg noodles. Thank you!” Song Yao smiled very sweetly.
Cen Mo’s gaze was filled with indulgence and adoration when he looked at Song Yao. He nodded. “Alright!”
Ever since Cen Mo learned that he hadn’t been abandoned by his birth parents, that he was, in fact, deeply loved without his knowledge, Cen Mo’s character and mental illness seemed to have improved by a lot!
When Lin Nuan saw the tomato egg noodles placed before her, which were exactly like what Song Yao had described, she couldn’t explain what she was feeling. The noodles were beautiful… much more than any noodles she had eaten before. However, what appeared in her mind was the bowl of egg noodles Ji Yun had made for her that summer after sitting her down in that dirty room.
“Why aren’t you eating?”
After was.h.i.+ng his hands and returning to the room, Cen Mo saw that Lin Nuan was holding onto her chopsticks and in a daze. He picked up a tissue to wipe his hands as he asked her.
Lin Nuan felt that her emotions were easily swayed after she had gotten pregnant. She looked up, eyes a little red, and said to Cen Mo, “The only time I ate what Mom personally made, it was tomato egg noodles. I didn’t expect that… after so long, the first time I’m eating what my real brother cooked, it also turns out to be egg noodles!”
Cen Mo paused in his action of drying his hands, his emotions uncontrollably seething as he thought of Ji Yun.
“Alright, have the noodles!” Fu Huai’an rubbed Lin Nuan’s head, his voice sounding extremely alluring and pleasant.
Cen Mo’s cooking was really good. Lin Nuan had also eaten food from Michelin restaurants, but this was the first time that Lin Nuan had eaten egg noodles that had been done so perfectly.
“How can it be so delicious?” Lin Nuan, who was usually a composed lady, was so excited that her eyes lit up.
Cen Mo smiled and said, “I probably inherited my cooking from Grandfather!”
When Cen Mo learned that he was Lu Boye, he had investigated his birth parents’ background and past. Of course, it was a little tricky to investigate Ji Yun’s background, but it was much easier for his father’s background.
Cen Mo had wanted to share everything with Lin Nuan after he had found out about their mother’s background as well. However, he couldn’t hold back when Lin Nuan said that the tomato egg noodles he made were delicious.
In fact, after Lin Nuan got together with Fu Huai’an, it wasn’t as if Fu Huai’an hadn’t thought of helping Lin Nuan check on her parents’ past.
It was just that… Fu Huai’an felt that Lin Nuan’s parents had already pa.s.sed away, so it was fine for her to just know the little bits of the past her mother had written about in her letter. Lin Nuan would definitely feel upset if she were to hear of what a tough life her parents had led after losing their child.
Fu Huai’an had asked about Lin Nuan’s intentions toward looking up Ji Yun’s relatives. Little Lu had also tried to search for them, but since it had been quite a long time, there was no news at all. Therefore, Lin Nuan told Fu Huai’an to stop the investigation.
Lin Nuan was afraid that the results wouldn’t turn out to be good. What if Ji Yun was the only one left behind after the accident?
If Lin Nuan’s grandparents on her birth mother’s side were still alive, Lin Nuan believed that they’d definitely have looked for Ji Yun. It wouldn’t be the case where they wouldn’t even make a police report, leaving their daughter missing.
Lin Nuan could also tell from Ji Yun’s letter that it was likely that Ji Yun’s family conditions were quite good back then. When Ji Yun was ten or so years old… her family could drive a car to the hospital to pick up her mother and her newborn brother. Considering the generation, the fact that they had a car made it apparent that their living conditions had been quite good!
However, despite this, they still couldn’t find anything. There were no police records, and the person Little Lu sought help from didn’t manage to come back with news. Lin Nuan could guess what the results had been. Therefore, she felt that it was better for her not to know anything and told Fu Huai’an to stop the investigation.
However, Cen Mo, who had lacked love while growing up, was very curious about his parents’ lives. He was also very concerned about the lives that his grandparents led. Therefore, he made up his mind to investigate things.
Although there was still nothing found about Ji Yun’s background, Cen Mo had already investigated everything about their father in the Lu family very clearly.
Seeing Lin Nuan’s gaze, Cen Mo pulled out the chair and took a seat, saying to Lin Nuan, “Our grandfather used to be Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant’s head chef. Our grandfather’s great grandfather was an imperial chef, and after he left the palace, he founded the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant…”
