Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend

Chapter 13 "I will try my best to support myself and not be a burden to you."

For dinner, the two ate tomato and egg noodles, along with some cold dishes that Ning Xi had brought back.

The noodles were cooked by He Kezhou, and the tomato and egg sauce was taught to He Kezhou by Ning Xi.

The man, over 1.88 meters tall, took up most of the kitchen space. The kitchen, which usually looked spacious, suddenly felt somewhat cramped.

Ning Xi leaned against the kitchen door frame.

She discovered that He Kezhou couldn't cook at all.

Unfamiliar, clumsy, and slow, yet exceptionally earnest.

Ning Xi did not dampen He Kezhou's enthusiasm for cooking, and would occasionally praise him for adding just the right amount of water and seasonings.

Every time she spoke, He Kezhou would look up at her.

That earnestness made Ning Xi's heart flutter.

He's so handsome it's unfair!

Ning Xi pressed the back of her hand against her cheek; it was really hot.

She told He Kezhou, "The electric fan I ordered online has arrived. I'll unpack it and set it up for you."

She should have remembered sooner.

Before assembling the fan, Ning Xi first put the roses that had been sitting in the bathroom in a vase.

By the time she had finished tending the flowers and assembling the fan, He Kezhou had already served the tomato and egg noodles.

She turned on the fan, pointed it at He Kezhou, and adjusted it to the fastest speed.

The warm breeze, carrying the scent of roses, blew away the stuffiness and cooking fumes from the kitchen.

He Kezhou handed the chopsticks to Ning Xi.

The noodles don't look very appealing. But they smell amazing.

Ning Xi sniffed and couldn't help but swallow.

It doesn't matter if it looks good or not, as long as it's edible.

The noodles were so hot when she put them in her mouth that she shivered.

My stomach, which had been empty all afternoon, was soothed by the scalding hot noodles.

Ning Xi swallowed the noodles, her eyes lighting up. "He Kezhou, you're amazing! The noodles are so delicious!"

He has a talent for cooking!

He Kezhou could see Ning Xi's joyful and satisfied smile. The noodles he picked up slipped back into the bowl.

Ning Xi urged He Kezhou to eat quickly, while she slurped down her noodles.

Eating noodles in the middle of summer is fine, except for the heat.

After taking a few bites, Ning Xi fanned herself and the noodles with her hand.

He Kezhou stretched out his arm and pointed the fan at Ning Xi.

Ning Xi puffed out her cheeks and waved her hand, "Don't keep looking at me, shake your head, we can both blow it."

"If it's not cool enough, we'll turn on the air conditioner."

He Kezhou adjusted the fan to a position where both of them could feel the breeze.

Ning Xi squinted her eyes comfortably.

Between the cool air from the air conditioner and the natural breeze from the electric fan, she prefers the breeze from the fan.

She planned to wait for the fan to cool the noodles down a bit before eating them.

He Kezhou doesn't seem to be afraid of getting burned.

Ning Xi deliberately interrupted him while he was eating noodles, "He Kezhou, why did you kiss me just now?"

"If I actually did that kind of thing, you'd probably find it disgusting..."

How could I bring myself to eat it?

She didn't say the second half of her sentence.

"You don't."

He Kezhou's words were light, yet carried great weight.

Ning Xi stared into the man's dark eyes and completely forgave him.

It's perfectly normal for boyfriends and girlfriends to kiss.

But because the original owner and He Kezhou had never kissed, this seemingly normal situation suddenly seemed a little abnormal.

Ning Xi had already mentally prepared herself while He Kezhou was cooking noodles.

It's normal for adult men and women to have things happen when they're in the same space and in a romantic relationship. If nothing happens, either she or he has a problem.

Ning Xi felt that she was completely incapable of remaining unmoved by He Kezhou's face and perfect physique.

For several minutes, the only sound was the chewing of food.

"I got paid this month, and I'm thinking of moving to a new place."

After saying this, He Kezhou stopped eating noodles and stared at Ning Xi.

Ning Xi swallowed the noodle soup in her mouth, smiled and said "okay". She took out her phone and transferred six thousand yuan to He Kezhou. "I still have about two thousand left for myself, which will be my living expenses for next month. The six thousand I transferred to you is the rent I owe Meng Yizhen for two months."

"You're busy with work, but I have more flexible hours, so leave the house-hunting to me."

Ning Xi's reaction was completely different from what He Kezhou had expected.

He thought that if he proposed changing houses, the current peace would be completely shattered.

Before he could ask where her money came from, Ning Xi said, "I sold the bag."

"He Kezhou, thank you for supporting me these past two months. From now on, I will try my best to support myself and not be a burden to you."

The moment He Kezhou heard that Ning Xi had bought the bag, the noodles in his mouth lost their flavor.

He saw how precious and cherished that bag was to Ning Xi.

I should be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

But why didn't he feel relaxed at all?

It was because he was too poor that Ning Xi was forced to change.

He Kezhou took a big gulp of noodle soup.

Ning Xi's lips moved slightly.

Now, let's be honest with He Kezhou about that.

Perhaps it's a good time.

"He Kezhou, I want to be honest with you—"

Splash!

The chair scraped against the floor, interrupting Ning Xi's words.

He Kezhou got up, took the bowl, and went to the kitchen.

Ning Xi thought He Kezhou was going to get noodles, but she didn't expect him to go wash the dishes.

She took her own bowl and chopsticks into the kitchen.

She ate too much; she was stuffed.

He Kezhou, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, took her bowl and chopsticks.

Ningxi told him, "I'll wash the bowl of the noodles you cooked."

He Kezhou didn't move aside. He quickly finished washing the dishes and asked her, "Would you like some milk tea tonight?"

Ning Xi shook her head and pointed to the refrigerator, "There's watermelon in the refrigerator."

He Kezhou: "Want some durian?"

Ning Xi continued to shake her head.

He Kezhou: "Lychee, guava, avocado, Basque cake..."

These are all foods that Ning Xi loves to eat.
