"Great! Let’s move out tonight. Where do you want to move? Water Valley or Scenic Garden?"
Though Easton Hols agreed readily, what he ant was that both of them would move together. The two places he ntioned were Lily Turner’s private apartnt and the apartnt he had given her.
Lily Turner stared at Easton Hols for a long ti and sighed deeply in resignation, "Forget it, let’s just stay here."
Judging by his stance, there was no way he would let her move out alone. If he wouldn’t let her move alone, what was the point of her leaving here?
"Isn’t here good?"
Easton Hols’ deep eyes stared unblinkingly at Lily Turner, hoping to find the most genuine answer from her, but she kept her eyes down, so he couldn’t see her eyes at all.
Is it good here?
It’s quite nice here, quiet and safe. She actually quite liked it here in her heart.
But...
Thinking of what Evelyn Taylor had said, Lily Turner couldn’t help but sigh again. However, when she looked up at Easton Hols, she imdiately put away her gloomy expression.
"What food did you bring back today?" she asked him while reaching out to take one of the two food containers he’d just placed on the coffee table.
"Beef noodles!"
On his way back from a mission, Easton Hols had co across a beef noodle shop and brought back two servings.
"Beef noodles?! Does your canteen make beef noodles these days?" Lily Turner opened the plastic packaging and indeed saw beef noodles in the transparent food container. She had never liked noodles or similar foods since she was a child.
Easton Hols shook his head, "I bought it from a noodle shop outside."
"You went out this morning?"
The man in front of her couldn’t have gone out specifically to buy a bowl of noodles for her. Lily Turner was aware of this fact, not to ntion that he didn’t even know if she liked noodles.
"Yeah!" Easton Hols nodded lightly.
"I’ll get a bowl."
Understanding, Lily Turner blinked, got up and went to the kitchen. When she returned, she had a small bowl and two pairs of chopsticks in her hands.
Even with food she liked, she couldn’t eat that much, let alone noodles, her least favorite.
Lily Turner opened the lid of the food container, took so noodles into the small bowl, and handed the remaining noodles to Easton Hols.
"This is mine, and this is yours."
She kept one pair of chopsticks for herself and stuffed the other pair into his hand.
"Are you a little sparrow?"
Easton Hols glanced down at the small bowl in front of Lily Turner; he could practically count the noodles. Was this a prelude to fasting?
At first, Lily Turner didn’t quite grasp what Easton Hols ant, but seeing him eyeing the noodles in her bowl, she imdiately got it, "I ate too much this morning, I’m not hungry now."
With that, she lowered her head and started eating her noodles, choosing to ignore his gaze and reaction.
"It’s been a few hours since breakfast; how could you not be hungry?" Easton Hols didn’t believe Lily Turner’s excuse at all and leaned over to put more noodles from the container into her bowl, "I told you, you don’t need to diet; it’s been just a few hours and you’ve already forgotten."
Seeing this, Lily Turner quickly picked up her bowl and moved to sit a bit farther away, "I’m not dieting, I’m really just not hungry."
Although the noodles weren’t bought specifically for her, it was still a lunch specially brought back. How could she outright say she didn’t like noodles at all?
