When Xyla Quest heard what Stanley Batton said, her heart clenched. She subconsciously turned to look at his eyes.

There was a mysterious look in his eyes, and it appeared as if he was smiling faintly.

Right then, Xyla felt as if her heart had gone numb.

She began to blush as images of what happened the other night appeared in her mind.

"You're annoying. What are you saying?" Xyla pretended to be calm as she frowned and looked at him with a serious expression.

"Can't you be a little purer?" Stanley's smile became more apparent.

"You're the impure one," Xyla said.

"How am I impure?" Stanley asked.

"How are you not impure? Hurry up and do it already," Xyla said with a serious face.

After saying that, she blushed yet again.

Wait a second...

What the hell did she just say?

"Sure, I'll do it," Stanley said without moving. His eyes glimmered.

Xyla's face was now red all over. "What are you saying?"

"Didn't you say you wanted me to do the noodle the freshly-homemade way?" Stanley asked.

"I..." Xyla was at a loss for words.

Stanley ruffled her hair gently before turning around and walking into the kitchen.

When Xyla saw him walking away, her heart started beating faster, and her face turned redder.

Only after Stanley had completely disappeared did her heartbeat finally return to normal.

After taking a deep breath, Xyla recollected herself and began playing League of Legends on her laptop.

Once she entered her battle state, her attention was completely focused on the game.

Hence, she was no longer in the mood to think about anything else.

During the game, Xyla was met with very strong opponents.

In her team, she was the only hard carry.

In the end, her team still lost.

Once the game ended, she began mumbling angrily to herself, "What kind of teammates are these? Why do they suck so bad?"

Xyla couldn't understand how the teammates she was matched with reached their current ranks when their gaming skills were this horrible.

Helplessly, she shook her head and started playing another match.

After a few matches, all of which involved terrible teammates, she finally decided to quit playing.

Xyla wanted to clear her mind.

When she turned around, she could see Stanley making the ramen in front of the kitchen table.

Every move he made seemed like he was professionally trained as a chef in a ramen restaurant.

His eyes and brows looked as if they were taken from a painting. From Xyla's perspective, he seemed even more attractive than a male protagonist from a food-based idol drama. Xyla began to indulge in his good looks.

As she watched, Stanley finished cooking the noodles. He then placed them in two white soup bowls and brought them over to her.

Every move he made seemed like a work of art.

Stanley carefully placed the two bowls of noodles on the coffee table before sitting down next to her. "Here you go... Are you happy with how they look?"

Stanley had made beef noodles. Apart from there being more slices of braised beef, they looked practically identical to those served in restaurants.

Xyla was instantly impressed by the bowl of beef noodles in front of her. "How did you do it? It looks amazing..." She seemed a little surprised.

Stanley handed a pair of chopsticks to her. "I've watched how the pros do it, and I just did what they did."

"Based on how well you made this, I think you can already open up your restaurant." Xyla then slurped a mouthful of noodles.

The noodles were just the right combination of chewiness and toughness. On top of that, the soup was also delicious.

It tasted much more delicious than those served outside.

"Woah... This is way too good." Xyla looked at Stanley with a pleasantly surprised expression on her face.
