Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 428

Chapter 428 The Struggle to Find Noodles

Selena let out a dejected sigh. “Should we just eat something else?” “We’ll eat noodles!” He held onto her hand and led her into a small alley.

“Where are you taking me? It’s five miles away, isn’t it? Are we going to walk all the way there?” she cried. He led her through an intricate network of passages and somehow managed to find a noodle store hidden in one of the alleyways. It was a tiny stall set up in a residential area, and it didn’t look like a legitimate restaurant. The store was dim and quiet as they looked into it from outside—it didn’t look like a nice place at all.

“Is this the place?” Selena asked. “Yeah. Do you have a problem with it?” Pierre asked in return.

She rubbed her rumbling tummy. “No! Let’s go!” The two of them strode into the shop. A couple ran the place, and one of their children was sitting at the corner of the shop while doing her homework. The lady owner was carrying another young child on her back as she walked over to serve them. Selena and Pierre could immediately tell that their family of four was struggling to make ends meet—the restaurant was probably their sole income.

“What would you guys like to eat? We serve homemade noodles here. Would you like to take a look at the menu?” The lady gestured toward a menu hanging on the wall.

“I’ll have some beef noodles,” Selena said after glancing at the menu.

“Same for me,” Pierre said as the lady turned toward him. “Alright. Do you guys want anything else? We have shrimp, fried chicken, and cabbage as side dishes. Would you like to try some of those?”

“We’ll have one of each, then.” Selena ordered an unnecessary amount of food.
