Chapter 1987: Absolute Sincerity
Ma Haodong pulled his body back, took a deep breath, and said in a determined tone, “Just you wait! Xiao Yuqian, just you wait! One day, I will make this diamond into a ring and have you willingly put it on your finger.”
Xiao Yuqian: “…”
She unexpectedly saw absolute sincerity in his eyes.
Her heart was thrown into chaos because of these words, making it beat nonstop. Her cheeks also unexpectedly turned red.
After Ma Haodong finished speaking, he held the box tightly and stared directly at her. Only then did he stand up to speak. “Okay, I’m hungry. Go and cook!”
His bad att.i.tude as a young master came back again. Xiao Yuqian stood up from the sofa and said, “It’s not like I’m your nanny. How do you usually eat when you are by yourself?”
“Instant noodles takeout,” Ma Haodong answered directly.
“A rich boy like you ordering takeout and eating instant noodles?” Xiao Yuqian could not understand how this spendthrift could actually eat instant noodles and takeout every day. What kind of m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.tic life was he living?
“That’s right. It’s not like there is a woman to cook for me.”
Ma Haodong said it very pitifully.
She looked at his slightly lonely looking back, and perhaps it was because a moment of benevolence suddenly took over Xiao Yuqian, but she stood up and said, “You wait. I will go cook.”
Ma Haodong cheered in his heart. He could finally eat a meal cooked by his G.o.ddess soon. He shouted at her, “Don’t cook too much food. Just cook a few simple dishes. I don’t eat much.”
Xiao Yuqian came to the kitchen and discovered the double-door refrigerator was well-stocked. Moreover, the ingredients were all very fresh. There were also many signs that this kitchen had been used before. This all proved this fella frequently cooked.
In actuality, Ma Haodong knew how to cook. He just didn’t want to do it today, as he wanted to eat food that Xiao Yuqian personally made for him.
Xiao Yuqian put on an ap.r.o.n, started chopping, and got busy.
Cooking wasn’t something that was difficult for her. Her culinary skills were quite good and she was able to quickly whip up four dishes and a soup. The rice was also cooked. She placed all of it on the table and shouted outside, “Time to eat!”
Ma Haodong followed the fragrance of the dishes into the dining hall and saw the dishes had all been placed on the table. This moment made him feel like he was part of a family.
His G.o.ddess had prepared a meal for him. This feeling was really too awesome.
Ma Haodong came back from was.h.i.+ng his hands and sat down with Xiao Yuqian to eat. This was the first time he’d tasted her craft. Ma Haodong did not hold back his praises. “Mmmm. This is simply too delicious. How are your hands so awesome?”
He didn’t forget to praise her while he ate. Xiao Yuqian’s face turned red when she heard this and she didn’t say anything.
Ma Haodong pretty much cleaned out all of the dishes by himself. After he was full and satisfied, he said while looking stuffed, “Qianqian, thank you for cooking for me. Your cooking is really delicious. You are even better than my mom.”
“That is because you were hungry,” Xiao Yuqian replied. After they finished eating, she got ready to wash the dishes. Ma Haodong said, “Don’t move. You already worked hard cooking for me. I will wash the dishes.”
“Okay then. I will head upstairs to take care of some things.”
“Okay, go ahead!”
Xiao Yuqian turned around and went upstairs. She felt strange in her heart. Why was the relations.h.i.+p between the two of them so weird right now? It felt as though they were husband and wife.
At night, Xiao Yuqian was staring at the computer while dealing with some work. She still needed to write a report for a meeting. However, she heard thunderous booms coming from outside.
The sounds were too loud and they shook so much that even her eardrums were trembling. She really couldn’t focus.
She came to Ma Haodong’s room and knocked on the door. No one came to open it so she just opened it. She then saw Ma Haodong wearing headphones and holding an electric guitar, becoming crazily intoxicated in his performance.
