Moreover, hearing no sounds in the house other than her own and Xushu’s, she felt a little more at ease. At the very least, she didn't have to worry about anyone seeing her in such a disheveled state or making fun of her.
Xushu knew full well that it was already quite late, and since both of them were starving, they had no energy to cook a elaborate meal. He made a prompt decision: boil two bowls of noodles, fry a few eggs, and slice some spiced beef to fill their stomachs. Xushu’s cooking skills were already quite good, and having picked up a few tricks from Shazhu recently, his proficiency had improved by leaps and bounds. While his level certainly didn't compare to Tan Yali, the successor of the Tan cuisine, it was still far above that of an average person.
Sure enough, when Lou Xiaoe caught the aroma of the noodles, she actually sat up slowly from the bed where she had been lying listlessly. Seeing this, Xushu hurried over to help her to the table. After they finished their meal, feeling satisfied, they returned to their room to rest.
