Afterwards, Kato Megumi began to seek advice from Fafnir, and with his help, her plan became more and more perfect.

However, some of the plans were too bold, causing her face to blush. She even felt a little resentful towards Fafnir in her heart, wondering if these were really words a man would say to a girl?

Suddenly, the tightly closed door slammed open without any warning.

This sudden change caused Kato Megumi and Fafnir to stop talking at the same time. They both looked towards the door with a look of surprise. Obviously, they hadn't expected him to come back so soon.

"What were you talking about just now?" Ye Yusheng walked into the room with light steps, his eyes fell on Kato Megumi's delicate face.

At this moment, a faint blush still remained on the girl's cheeks, as delicate and charming as a blooming peach blossom. Seeing this lovely side of the girl, Ye Yusheng felt his mouth dry and his heart felt like it had been stabbed hard, his heart beating wildly.

He quickly suppressed the throbbing feeling and turned his head to the side, trying to hide his panic and pretend to be indifferent.

And how could his actions escape the eyes of the two? Kato Megumi and Fafnir exchanged a glance, understanding each other, a barely perceptible smile appearing on their faces.

Ye Yusheng, who was completely unaware, just wanted to divert his attention: "What were you talking about just now?"

"Ah, no, nothing." Kato Megumi replied hurriedly, not daring to look him in the eye at all.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that something was wrong, so he turned his gaze to Fafnir, trying to find the answer.

However, Fafnir simply stood up, patted his shoulder gently, smiled slightly, and sat back in front of the TV. He pressed the start button and continued to play the game happily, with no intention of paying any attention to him.

Ye Yusheng didn't get an answer, so he didn't bother. He put down his umbrella and handed the bag of various seasonings to Kato Megumi.

Their hands accidentally touched during this process.

If it were in the past, Kato Megumi might not have reacted too much, but after talking with Fafnir and understanding her own feelings, she could no longer ignore it.

As soon as her fingertips touched it, she felt like she was electrocuted, and she pulled her hand back in a flash without even holding on to the bag. Fortunately, Ye Yusheng was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and grabbed the bag, otherwise the bag would have fallen to the ground.

"Sorry!"

After saying that, Kato Megumi dodged and snatched the bag from Ye Yusheng's hand. Like a frightened little rabbit, she rushed into the kitchen, leaving Ye Yusheng alone in the wind, disheveled.

After a while, Ye Yusheng came back to his senses. He turned to look at Fafnir who was playing the game and asked unhappily, "Tell me! Did you say something to Kato behind my back?"

Fafnir didn't answer directly. Instead, he said with a grin, looking like he deserved a beating. "It's a secret. You'll know later."

Nonsence! ! !

I knew it was you who caused the problem.

At the same time, a question popped up in his mind: What did Fafnir say to make the usually calm and composed Kato Megumi so cute?

However, it is obviously impossible to get an answer from Fafnir, and looking at Kato Megumi's panicked look, it is obvious that she will not tell him.

So, while waiting for Kato Megumi to cook, Ye Yusheng pondered this question alone. However, even after the meal was served, Ye Yusheng still couldn't figure out what the two people had said.

All the dishes have been served on the table.

Kato Hui then asked, "Xiaoye, where is the rice?"

Ye Yusheng didn't answer, but simply lowered his head and stared silently at the dishes on the table. He looked extremely embarrassed, and his eyes even revealed a hint of despair.

Kato Megumi's heart skipped a beat, and she realized that she had made a mistake. Instead of relying on these two people, she might as well cook it herself.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoye, I didn't know you didn't cook." Kato Megumi hurriedly apologized. She should have noticed it earlier. With Ye Yusheng's confused look, how could there be rice? It was even a question whether the family had bought rice.

Ye Yusheng shook his head and apologized with a wry smile: "It's my fault."

Looking at Ye Yusheng's appearance, Kato Hui felt really angry and funny, but now was not the time to worry about these things.

She lowered her head and wondered if there was any way to solve the problem.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up: "We can eat ramen!"

Hearing the reminder, Ye Yusheng finally remembered the unopened takeout bag. A hint of joy appeared on his face, and he gave Kato Hui a thumbs up: "Good idea!"

Kato Hui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, nodded, and said, "With so much ramen, if we heat it up and add these dishes, we should be able to eat enough."

Ye Yusheng agreed: "Okay, then I'll heat it up."

However, he was stopped just as he was about to stand up: "First, divide these dishes equally!"

After hearing the reminder, Ye Yusheng remembered that Japan has a separate dining system. He had been eating takeout and instant noodles while drinking Fafnir, and he really didn't pay attention.

Kato Megumi walked into the kitchen, took out ramen and a pot from the cabinet, then put the pot on the stove and began to heat up the ramen that was almost cold.

Soon, the hot ramen was served on the table.

Ye Yusheng picked up his chopsticks, picked up a handful of ramen, and put it in his mouth. The ramen tasted delicious and the broth was rich.

"It's delicious. I don't know why, but it hasn't become lumpy after being left for so long!" Ye Yusheng said, with a hint of surprise on his face.

Kato Hui adjusted her hair, smiled, and said, "That's good. I was worried that the ramen wouldn't taste good."

Fafnir, who was eating ramen silently, was secretly proud of himself. He had used magic specifically to prevent the ramen from becoming lumps. At the same time, he was still thinking whether it would be better to cast a heat preservation magic at the beginning.

"Xiaoye, why don't you know how to cook?" Kato Megumi finally couldn't help but ask.

Ye Yusheng was silent for a while before speaking with a melancholy tone: "I grew up in an orphanage. Later, I left the orphanage and lived alone. I didn't have any idea about cooking."

After hearing Ye Yusheng's explanation, Kato Megumi understood why she met Ye Yusheng in the park when she was a child.

Why is it that in the photos I see on the wall, there is always a lonely person?

Why would Fafnir say he has no family.

I should have noticed it sooner.

Her heart ached. She hadn't expected Ye Yusheng's life experience to be so tragic. "I'm sorry, I didn't know."

Ye Yusheng just shook his head: "It's okay, you don't need to apologize. I'm used to it."

Although he said so, he could not hide the loneliness and solitude in his eyes.

Fafnir, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence: "Okay, stop talking about this and eat! I'm hungry!"

Noticing Fafnir's pitiful look as if he wanted to taste the delicious food immediately but had to endure it, Ye Yusheng and Kato Megumi looked at each other, and the sadness in their eyes dissipated a little.

"Okay, enough talking, let's eat first!" Ye Yusheng picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. He bit it gently, and the rich gravy instantly filled his mouth. Feeling the rich taste and aroma contained in it, he couldn't help but give Kato Megumi a thumbs up: "You are worthy of being Megumi! Whoever marries you in the future will definitely be very happy."

"It's not that exaggerated." Kato Megumi said softly, but a smile appeared on her face, and her heart couldn't help but beat fast.

"No, you're truly amazing!" Fafnir commented, a rare comment. "This meat is cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, melting in your mouth. Every bite brings an incomparable sense of satisfaction, as if you're in gourmet heaven."

"Mr. Fafnir is exaggerating. Don't I know my own cooking level?" Kato Megumi chuckled, but she was still very happy to be praised for her cooking skills.

Suddenly, the smile on her face froze, because she saw that Ye Yusheng's face was covered with tears.

"What...what...what's wrong, Xiaoye?" Recovering from her reverie, Kato Megumi hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped Ye Yusheng's tears. Feeling the gentle touch of the handkerchief, Ye Yusheng trembled slightly. He slowly opened his eyes, looked at Kato Megumi's concerned face, and an inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart.

"I...I don't know why, but I suddenly want to cry." Ye Yusheng said softly, his voice a little hoarse.

This was of course a lie. He was just savoring the Chinese food, feeling the flavor of his hometown, and unconsciously missing his family and friends in his original world. However, he couldn't and couldn't say such words.

At least, it's not the time to say it yet.

He also understood why he liked Chinese food and wanted to taste it, but he deceived himself and said it was troublesome and did not go to Chinese restaurants.

He could only lower his head, not daring to look directly into Kato Megumi's concerned eyes, for fear that he would lose control in front of her.

Kato Hui sighed softly, handed the handkerchief to Ye Yusheng, and said gently: "Cry if you want to, it's okay. Sometimes, crying is also a kind of release."

Ye Yusheng took the handkerchief, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at Kato Megumi with gratitude.

He knew that Kato Hui was caring about him and trying to comfort him. This care and comfort made him feel extremely warm.

"Thank you, Xiaohui." Ye Yusheng said, with a hint of sob in his voice.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"I just thought of something, something that made me sad."

Kato Hui looked at Ye Yusheng quietly without saying a word. She knew that Ye Yusheng must have experienced something painful, which made her want to cry suddenly at this moment.
