Chapter 416 Sesame Noodles
A bowl of rather delicious-looking noodles was placed in front of each of them, as well as four other dishes.
Naturally, Eugene was the one who cooked the dishes. Moreover, there were a few pickled dishes that were
prepared by Olivia.
To be honest, she had always felt rather unsatisfied. She believed that the dishes she made were not pretty, but
they tasted okay. It’s not as bad as they claim!
After they sat down at the dining table, Brian glanced at the table full of dishes. Then, he pointed suspiciously at a
plate of potatoes, which were cut the size of a pinky finger, and asked Eugene, “Are these supposed to be julienned
potatoes?”
Olivia looked crossed. “What’s wrong with them? They’re perfectly julienned, alright?”
In response, Eugene used his fist to cover his mouth, strongly suppressing the urge to laugh. I mustn’t laugh.
Otherwise, she will definitely explode in anger.

that that dish was prepared by Olivia? Thus, he hurriedly tried to make up for his mistake and said, “The thickness
doesn’t matter anyway. What’s important is that it tastes good.” As he spoke, he used his chopsticks to grab some
of the potatoes. He didn’t even chew them well before swallowing them whole. After that, he nodded his head
repeatedly. “It’s delicious! Olivia, your cooking surpasses that of my hotel’s five-star chef!”
Unfortunately, her expression grew darker. “Your brother cooked that!”
At that point, Brian didn’t know what to say anymore. This is bad! There’s no way I can talk myself out of this!
Besides, Eugene seemed to be enjoying his predicament for some reason. Go on; flatter her some more. You’re
failing miserably at flattering her, aren’t you?
In the end, North spoke up. He picked at the noodles in his bowl as he said, “My mommy made these noodles as
well as these pickles.” He could tell from a single glance—the dishes his mommy made were either red or black. In
short, they were never normal in color.
Upon hearing that, Brian awkwardly made a non-committal sound in response.
On the other hand, Eugene calmly ate a bite of the noodles Olivia had prepared. He didn’t have any expectations
for the taste. After all, her cooking skills were rather poor. However, when he tasted the noodles, he was surprised.
The noodles were surprisingly delicious. It was the type of noodles that were mixed with sauce after it had been
cooled with ice water. With each bite, he could taste the fragrant aroma of the sesame oil and chili oil. The other
ingredients included julienned cucumbers, beansprouts, scallions, and crushed peanuts. It didn’t taste like
something Olivia, who couldn’t cook, had made. Thus, he was incredibly shocked. Nodding his head in satisfaction,
he said, “It’s delicious.”
Finally, her mood seemed to be turning for the better. “Of course. I’ve been making them for seven years! Brian,
hurry up and try them.”
Since Olivia had handed him an olive branch, Brian hurriedly responded and tried the noodles. Sure enough, they
were very tasty. I thought Eugene had forced himself to say that it was delicious and hinted at me to follow suit.
Turns out it really is delicious. “Olivia, I’m not trying to flatter you, but this is scrumptious!”
“I know right? It’s my specialty.”

Eugene felt speechless. Why did you bring up such a dangerous topic? “When did I say that?”
Brian replied, “On the day we were making dumplings.”
In response, Eugene glared at him. “I didn’t say that my girlfriend is bad at cooking the local specialties either, did
I? Besides, why does she need to be good at cooking when she has me as her boyfriend?”
North thought to himself, Luckily, my daddy is rather astute.
Looking at how Eugene was trying to express his devotion to her, Brian couldn’t help snickering. Since when has
Eugene been so afraid of somebody? Yeah, it can only be described as ‘scared’. He’s scared of making her mad
and scared of her ignoring him—so much so that if she simply raises a brow at him, he would question what he did
to upset her. Thus, he deliberately said, “Anyway, that’s not what you said the other day.”
Eugene growled, “Are you trying to make me throw you out of this place?”
“This is Olivia’s house.”
“It’s my girlfriend’s house.”
Olivia was rendered speechless by their behavior. After they got closer, they’ve been acting so childishly every
single day. Pursing her lips, she quietly said, “There’s less than a bowl’s worth of noodles left in the pot. If you don’t
have enough to eat, don’t come looking for me.”
Upon hearing those words, Eugene immediately stopped squabbling with Brian. Instead, he focused on eating.
