Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 718: Chapter 712: How Can One Eat So Much

Chu Molin knew that emotions couldn’t be forced, but some people only grow after experiencing certain things. Like him, after going through a lot, his perspective had changed.

Xue Ling watched them eating the noodles, not noticing any difference. Why did the couple look like that? Xue Ling didn’t understand human emotions, so she couldn’t comprehend their feelings, but that didn’t stop her from eating. So, while the couple was lost in thought, Xue Ling was happily eating away.

Qin Xue went to eat some more, only to find out that everything, except for what was in their bowls, had already been devoured by Xue Ling.

Qin Xue was so furious she wanted to hit someone. This was her favorite dish, and it had been completely wiped out!

“Xue Ling, you…couldn’t you see that we hadn’t eaten yet? You finished everything by yourself, that’s so inconsiderate!” Qin Xue pointed at the empty bowls and plates and glared at Xue Ling. Really, who behaves like that?

“I thought you guys were done eating, so I ate it all to avoid wasting it. By the way, are you going to eat what’s in your bowls? If not, I’ll eat it,” Xue Ling stared at their food, drooling. The food was indeed delicious.

...
“In your dreams! We haven’t even eaten yet! And seriously, where do you put all that food in your stomach? You’re so small, yet you eat so much,” Qin Xue eyed her belly. The thing was, no matter how much she ate, her belly remained flat. It was infuriating!

“So stingy,” Xue Ling pouted and muttered.

“What, you think I’m stingy? You don’t even know what stingy really means!” Qin Xue retorted while eating.

She was afraid that if she didn’t hurry up and eat, even what was left in her bowl would be gone soon. Xue Ling was terrifying when she got into eating.

Chu Molin listened to their exchange and looked at the empty plates, feeling helpless as they continued to fight over food.

“Xue’er, you haven’t eaten much. Should we order another portion?” Chu Molin asked his wife.

“No need, finishing this is enough. We still have a lot of things to do; we can’t afford to waste so much time. We can come back to eat again next time,” Qin Xue didn’t want to delay any further. She hadn’t forgotten why they were out in the first place.

“Alright, let’s go shopping after we finish eating,” Chu Molin reluctantly agreed. He knew that if they didn’t finish their tasks, his wife wouldn’t be in the mood for anything else. He regretted making such a decision.

No, he must raise the prices later. That way, the group of little brats will be too afraid of the cost to order too much, and he could have more time to spend with his wife.

That’s what he would do. This way, his family would have more time together, which would be beneficial for nurturing their relationship.

However, what Chu Molin didn’t know, was that Qin Xue was already planning to start a business in the Imperial Capital. There wouldn’t be much time for them to spend on love, as making a living was more important.

“Well, since we agreed to help them, we can’t go back on our word. Otherwise, we’d be despicable,” Qin Xue didn’t want to be untrustworthy, especially since she was going to be a businesswoman. If her reputation was bad, what would become of her?

“Alright, you’re the boss. We’ll do a good job for them, okay?” Chu Molin was sure that he’d brought trouble onto himself by agreeing to this.

Xue Ling watched them from the side and found it amusing; their predicament was just too interesting.
