Chapter 23: Mushroom and Egg Noodles

Shen Yue was angry.

Tang Qiaoqiao was not sure why, but she knew that Shen Yue was angry.

Although Shen Yue often had an iceberg face and sometimes sprayed people randomly, Tang Qiaoqiao already understood him to the point that she knew when he was really angry.

Just like now, he seemed to be silent, but his dark eyes exuded a cold light. The corners of his tightly squeezed mouth made him look like he had four big words floating on his head: "I Am Not Happy."

But Tang Qiaoqiao couldn't figure out why he was angry. Yesterday, she finished dinner at the show and drove back by car overnight. The director suggested that she stay another night, but she declined. When she returned to the villa, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening.

She had been recording shows all day and had not contacted him. How did she bother him?

She asked Aunt Wang, but Aunt Wang was also at a loss.

Shen Yue stared at Tang Qiaoqiao with a cold face. This woman fooled around outside for a few days before remembering to come home. He felt like a green grassland had grown on his head.

Wait!

If he thought that he had a green grassland on his head, doesn't it mean that he regarded Tang Qiaoqiao as his wife?

Shen Yue suddenly realized this problem, and his expression became more stinky.

How could he have such feelings for her? He was just worried that Tang Qiaoqiao would ruin the reputation of the Shen family. That's it.

Tang Qiaoqiao didn't know the controversy that occurred on Weibo. So she didn't know her grand status of today's headline until Brother Qian called her.

On the other end of the phone, Brother Qian exaggerated and praised Tang Qiaoqiao with rainbow farts that exceeded the sum of the compliments she had received from him in the past two years.

Brother Qian didn't expect that Tang Qiaoqiao not only had good cooking skills but also terrifying strength. The headline of the female star catching pigs is really unprecedented and unheard of.

No agent would ever dare to let their artist take the risk and force themselves to do this kind of thing. A female star usually ate mushrooms and vegetables instead of braised pork knuckles.

However, Tang Qiaoqiao had a different kind of firework. She had her own unique style others couldn’t copy.

"Qiaoqiao, you performed very well today. The boss asked me to compliment you. How did you think of shaking hands with Shen Liang and forming CP? I didn't even think of it." The thing that Brother Qian admired the most was this. When he learned that Shen Liang was also on the show, he worried that Shen Liang and Tang Qiaoqiao would fall out on screen. He was also afraid that Tang Qiaoqiao would continue to be an idiot and ruin things. However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations.

Form CP with Shen Liang? She was not that crazy yet.

Tang Qiaoqiao quickly denied it: I am not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense.

Brother Qian was puzzled and scratched his head, "You really did not deliberately create CP? Netizens really made the sparks for love."

Brother Qian didn't think there was anything wrong with forming CP. As long as they became popular, people in the entertainment circle who did not do this kind of thing were rare.

"It doesn't matter. The headline has been removed anyway." Brother Qian didn't care. The headline was up for a long time, and enough exposure was created. Anyway, he didn't spend any money to withdraw the headline.

Tang Qiaoqiao asked, "Who did it?"

Brother Qian guessed, "It should be Shen Liang's team. After all, both of you still had a bit of a contradiction. I saw that the blogger who did the fan video also posted a post to curse Shen Liang's team because now that video was 404. Shen Liang's team must have completely removed it."

No one would think that Tang Qiaoqiao would do this kind of thing. She should be eager for this headline to stay up high and give her more fans.

"But it's still a bit weird. It's not surprising that Shen Liang's team withdrew the headline. Why did they help you clear all the curses on your Weibo?" Brother Qian couldn't figure it out.

Tang Qiaoqiao said thoughtfully, "Shen Liang took the initiative to withdraw the headline. Maybe he found his conscience after eating my food."

When Tang Qiaoqiao said this, Shen Yue was next to her. When he heard her say, "Shen Liang withdrew the headline," his face stretched longer.

Obviously, he was the one who looked for someone to withdraw it. How come Shen Liang got the credit? Does she have a pig's brain?

But it's not easy for him to tell her directly, so angry!

Tang Qiaoqiao said to the other end of the phone, "In fact, even if he didn’t withdraw it, I would withdraw the hot search. If I thought about having a CP with him, it would make me feel cold."

After hearing this, Shen Yue was taken aback. His restless heart seemed to calm down as if it had been smoothed into a calm sea.

It was good that she knew.

After Tang Qiaoqiao talked with Brother Qian, she turned to look at Shen Yue. She didn't know that Shen Yue's inner mood had fluctuated in a short period, but she just saw that his face suddenly turned cloudy.

She thought to herself, do men also have those days of the month?

Tang Qiaoqiao rearranged her luggage, then casually asked, "Have you eaten?"

The man did not say a word, but Aunt Wang's lips twitched twice, but she did not say anything.

Tang Qiaoqiao guessed it as soon as she saw it. "Why don't you have dinner?"

Aunt Wang couldn't help it and said, "Master not only did not eat dinner but also did not eat lunch." After he ate Tang Qiaoqiao's frozen dumplings in the morning, he stopped eating. He didn't even touch his lunch.

Aunt Wang looked ashamed. "It's all because of my poor craftsmanship, which doesn't match Master's appetite."

Tang Qiaoqiao frowned. She understood Aunt Wang's craftsmanship. She has been able to work in a wealthy family for more than 20 years, so her cooking skills would not be bad.

It must be that Shen Yue's pickiness disease had flared up again.

Tang Qiaoqiao: "It's you who feesl uncomfortable if you don't eat. Why would you do this?"

Shen Yue: "Stop talking nonsense."

She sighed, "You are hungry. I will make you a bowl of noodles."

Shen Yue was quiet for a while and said coldly, "Add two eggs. One is fried and one is broken up."

'Oh, there are quite a lot of demands.'

Tang Qiaoqiao resignedly went to her vegetable plot and took two pinches of pea sprouts.

After the broth boiled, she added long and thin noodles. She stirred the eggs until the yolk and egg whites were fully fused. While the soup base was boiling to the extreme, she slowly poured the egg liquid into the pot and used the soup ladle with the other hand to gently stir in the clockwise direction. The current created beautiful yellow egg drops that are not muddy.

Then she sliced a cross shape on some fresh shiitake mushrooms, and together with the tender peas sprouts, she blanched them twice, then scoop them up and spread them on the noodles.

Next, she put some oil in the round pan and heated it until it smoked. Turned the heat down to small immediately after the egg is beaten. When the egg was shaped, she poured a circle of water along the edge of the egg. There was an instant sizzle, and a burst of white smoke came out. She closed the lid, simmered it for two minutes, and the fried egg was finished.

A bowl of fragrant mushrooms and eggs with pea-sprout noodles was placed in front of Shen Yue. He looked at the woman who was holding the bowl on the opposite side. "Why do you want to eat too?" 'Didn't you eat enough when recording the show?'

Tang Qiaoqiao calmly said, "I digested it a long time ago."

Shen Yue said with disapproval, "Are you still a female star? No wonder your face looks so fat in the show."

"Nonsense, that's because the camera would have been pulled wide." Tang Qiaoqiao hurriedly argued and touched her own face. She had a standard oval face. A bit more chubby, so it looks less mean. It is just right.

Only people who didn’t know how to appreciate cuteness will like a scary awl face.

Shen Yue pulled the corner of his mouth and concentrated on eating noodles.

The noodles were soft, and the soup base was mixed with chicken broth and egg drops, which werevery mellow. The fried egg was cooked just right. The bottom was golden, and there was a thin crispy shell, but the top was tender and pure white. When he lightly picked the soft egg yolk, the thick yolk flows out, silky like tofu. The shiitake mushrooms had a unique earthy scent and were chewy. The green pea sprouts are very tender. After a bite, the fragrance was incredibly fresh.

After eating, Shen Yue was sweating on his forehead. He drank the last sip of soup before putting down his bowls and chopsticks.

Tang Qiaoqiao had finished eating it a long time ago. After watching him for a long time, she was puzzled, "You could eat a bowl of egg noodles so happily, so you can eat well. Why is it so difficult for Aunt Wang to make you eat a meal?"

A thought flashed in her mind. "You don't really only like to eat the food I cook, do you?"

Shen Yue: "Control the unrealistic thoughts in your mind."

"It's not good," Tang Qiaoqiao muttered, "Otherwise, you will really starve yourself to death if I leave."

"What's going on?" Shen Yue asked suspiciously after he could not hear it clearly.

Tang Qiaoqiao smiled and didn't answer. Let's wait until his leg is cured.

At this time, Shen Liang had just returned to his apartment in the city. His apartment is located in a top-notch community. His floor only had him as an occupant.

As soon as he exited the elevator, he saw Tang Rou standing in front of his door.

Shen Liang frowned. He said they should never meet at his residence to avoid being spotted by the paparazzi.

Tang Rou smiled and greeted him, "You're back."
