You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 821 Mrs. Lu

Michelle didn't take Leon's private photos in the end.

The moment he took off his clothes, Michelle turned around and fled.

Watching her receding figure in the distance, he was at a loss for words.

With a face as red as a tomato, Michelle ran as fast as she could. Before she knew it, she was about to ram into Tasha, who was holding a bowl of noodles. Seeing that they were about to bump into each other, Tasha immediately turned to protect her lunch.

The two bodies collided. The bowl of noodle soup that Tasha tried to shield splashed a little, but fortunately, remained mostly intact.

Tasha heaved a sigh of relief.

"I'm so sorry." Michelle cupped her hands apologetically. In her haste, she hadn't gotten a good look at who she had just bumped into.

"It's okay. Are you done with the shoot?" When Michelle realized who it was, her face turned even redder. "Really, I'm okay," Tasha said hurriedly. "You don't have to be so nervous."

Michelle nodded her head shyly.

The steam coming from the bowl of noodles wafted towards her.

"That smells so good!" Michelle exclaimed.

Her stomach grumbled. Licking her lips and eyeing the bowl of soup, she asked, "Do you have any more instant noodles?"

Floating on top of the soup was a thick layer of chili oil. Seeing this, Michelle forgot about her shyness. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The blush on her cheeks vanished, and her eyes burned with hunger.

She hadn't had instant noodles in a long time.

Tasha shook her head. "No. Mrs. Lu, instant noodles are not good for you."

Hearing the way Tasha addressed her, Michelle was stunned. Her embarrassment returned and so did the redness on her cheeks.

Tasha asked, "Are you done shooting? It's almost time for lunch. What are you craving?"

She took out her phone and showed her pictures of food. "Which restaurant do you like? Or do you want to order food from different restaurants?"

Michelle shook her head and eyed the bowl of instant noodles in Tasha's hand. Swallowing, she said, "That smells good." Tasha looked down at the instant noodles, which were about to go cold. Sighing, she wondered if she'd get into trouble.

Leon looked gentle and kind on the surface, but he had a vicious and vindictive side. He could punish her with many ways.

Tasha and the others employees had planned to have hotpot this noon, but after she walked in on Leon and Michelle making out passionately, he had sent her a message asking her whether she would want bread or instant noodles for lunch.

Of course, she chose instant noodles.

The noodles had been soaked in the boiling water for a while. It would get cold if she didn't eat them soon.

"Mrs. Lu, I'll book one dish from each restaurant." Tasha ordered quickly and left, taking her instant noodles with her.

Following the smell, Michelle said, "Tasha, tell me where the nearest supermarket is. I'll get instant noodles myself."

"Mrs. Lu, there isn't any supermarket nearby. Besides, telling me what you want to eat is useless. You have to tell Mr. Lu," Tasha said helplessly.

As soon as she finished speaking, Leon came down the stairs neatly dressed.

Tasha sensibly shut up, turned on her heel, and left.

"Leon," Michelle greeted and walked over to him. "I want to eat instant noodles for lunch. How about you?"

"Instant noodles? They are unhealthy." Leon frowned and took her hand.

To Tasha's receding figure, he asked in a loud voice, "Have you ordered lunch yet?"

Just as Tasha reached the door, she stopped and turned around with a respectful smile. "Yes, sir."

Leon nodded slightly. When he faced Michelle again, his expression softened. "Lunch is ready. Just enjoy the meal. Forget about instant noodles."

"But I haven't had instant noodles in a while. I'm craving them now," Michelle persisted, squeezing Leon's big hand in hers. Her bright eyes were full of desire.

Knowing he would go weak when faced with her innocent charm, he took a stiff step backwards and said, "No."

It seemed that ever since Michelle came into his life, the word "no" had come out of his mouth more frequently.

This girl was really disobedient.

Even though she was rejected twice, Michelle did not back down. Instead, she stood on tiptoe and pecked him on the lips. Batting her eyelashes at him innocently, she asked again, "Can we have instant noodles for lunch, Leon?"

Leon's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he gulped. "You cheeky little devil."

Then he flicked her forehead gently.

Michelle shrank back involuntarily, covering her forehead in defense. "So you agree? Thank you so much, Leon."

"I never said I agreed," Leon said with a decisive smile.

"What?" Michelle's face fell.

Tasha, the bystander, watched helplessly.

Leon was really good at this.

Just as she was about to make her escape, Leon called her again. "Tasha, come and have lunch with us." Shocked, Tasha didn't dare to believe it. She glanced at Michelle, who also gestured for her to stay.

The surprise and uncertainty instantly turned into joy.

It seemed things were turning around for her! Instead of a quick meal of instant noodles, she was going to have a feast.

Noticing that Tasha was about to put down the bowl, Leon added, "Be sure not to waste the food." The smile on Tasha's face froze. Gritting her teeth, she thought, 'So that's why he's asking me to join them for lunch. He wants me to eat instant noodles while watching them enjoy their feast.'

She was so angry but she didn't dare say anything. She firmly held onto the bowl of noodles.

Because it was going to take some time before the food arrived, Michelle dashed over to Tasha when Leon stepped out for a call. "Can I secretly have some?"

She still hadn't let go of her craving for instant noodles.

Tasha shook her head resolutely.

"Well, do you want to eat now? Your food's getting cold." All the while, Michelle's eyes were glued to the bowl of soup.

Tasha also knew that the instant noodles were getting cold, but she didn't dare eat them before the other two had started with their meal.

Although Leon hadn't said so explicitly, Tasha knew he wanted her to wait until their lunch was served. Then they would sit at the same table; Leon and Michelle would have their delicious meal while she ate cold instant noodles.

Just thinking about it made Tasha feel miserable.

Finally, their food was delivered, and everything went according to Tasha's expectations.

However, before she could take a bite, Michelle stopped her. "Instant noodles are not yummy when they're cold. Don't eat them."

Even Leon seemed to have a conscience. A bowl of steaming instant noodles was served in front of her.

This instantly put Tasha in a good mood. She stuffed some noodles in her mouth.

Michelle drooled at the sight.

"Stop staring." Leon patted the top of her head, and the girl looked at him as though she had been mistreated. He couldn't help but chuckle. "Don't give me that look. You have instant noodles, too."

Just then, another bowl of steaming hot noodles was served. Michelle's eyes lit up in surprise mixed with happiness.
