Chapter 581 SOMETHING PRECIOUS

Chapter 581 SOMETHING PRECIOUS　　"I just wanted to impress you a little. Is it working?" Jayden then leaned in to kiss Apple's lips.

Apple rolled her eyes dramatically. "Not really, rich boy," she said lightly.

Jayden laughed when he heard the endearment that Apple had used on him. "But, after all, someday, what's mine will be yours too."

Apple pouted but then she patted Jayden's shoulder and her eyes sparkled with joy. "How about you try eating instant noodles? There will always be a first time for everything."

Jayden's brow furrowed. He was not sure that in a resort like this they would provide instant noodles. No one would ask for such food. "I am not sure they have instant noodles here," said Jayden skeptically.

"You have so many subordinates and you can't make them find a packet of instant noodles that you can find anywhere?" asked Apple in disbelief.

Well, what Apple said was also true, if indeed instant noodles could be found anywhere, that meant it wouldn't be difficult for his subordinates to find the food that Apple wanted, right?

With that in mind, Jayden made a phone call and called Adrian to tell him what the man should be looking for.

"Instant noodles?" Adrian repeated Jayden's request in disbelief, his eyes wide, as if he had just heard some earth shattering news, while his fellow bodyguards stared at him in bewilderment. "Okay, yes, understood."

Adrian listened to a few more instructions while nodding, but with a confused expression on his face and a furrowed brow.

"What is it?" asked one of the bodyguards there while approaching Adrian with a worried expression. "Did something bad happen?" he asked warily.

They had just been attacked in this place, which was supposed to be a place with heavy security, but the head of the family was actually attacked, so they wanted to make sure that everything was fine.

"No, nothing bad happened, it's just strange…" Adrian muttered. He stared at his phone screen, making sure that it was really Jayden Tordoff who had called him just now.

"Then what is it?" asked the man curiously. He knew that something was not right from Adrian's facial expression.

"Mr. Tordoff asked us to find instant noodles."

"Instant noodles?" The man was also surprised, as well as the other two bodyguards. "What for?"

No one had any idea why Jayden Tordoff wanted that kind of food, since instant noodles were very common for them, but they never even thought that Jayden Tordoff would eat instant noodles when there was a chef who had decades of experience at this resort, where he could ask to make any food.

"You're not kidding, are you?" he asked Adrian.

"Of course not." At this point, Adrian had his own guess. There was no way Jayden Tordoff would suddenly want to eat something like that if it weren't for Apple. That girl really had a strong influence on the heir to the Tordoff family.

It seemed, just like his father, Jayden Tordoff would also go down the same path as Ramon did with Hailee.

========================= 

"Since I don't know what flavor you like, I bought all the flavors so you can choose your own," Jayden replied innocently, while Apple palmed herself at what this man had done.

"You're not serious about this, are you?" Of course it was a very unnecessary question, seeing there were three big boxes of instant noodles in different flavors. Jayden was very serious about what he was saying right now.

"Of course, I am serious. I will always be serious whenever it comes to you," Jayden replied in a calm voice. He smiled cheerfully at the frustrated looking Apple.

This time, the two of them were in a luxurious kitchen, with all kinds of very modern and extraordinarily expensive cooking utensils, just to cook two bowls of instant noodles, which Jayden very generously bought so much.

As they entered the kitchen, a young chef on duty immediately prepared to summon their head chef, but Jayden immediately waved his hand, ignoring his question about what food they would like to eat, and telling him to step aside.

They would call the young chef if they needed his help with something. 

"Now, what should we do?" Jayden asked. He wasn't very good at cooking, because if it wasn't for the Tordoff family chefs, his mother would be very happy to cook for their little family and that was enough for Jayden.

Apple took a deep breath, then said in a resigned tone. Apparently, the first thing they had to sync up was how the logic of the two of them went.

"Well, we can boil water first." Apple then took a pot and started boiling water, then she turned to the young chef and asked where they put the eggs or meat that she could add to the instant noodles.

"Oh, over here," said the young chef with a face that was difficult to describe. He looked confused, but also worried. "This is meat of the highest quality," he said, then explained the quality of the meat and the price.

It left Apple wincing when she heard it all. The price of four boxes of all the instant noodles alone was not worth the price of a piece of meat that the young chef gave her as a side dish to the instant noodles she was about to make.

Apple seemed to understand why the chef mentioned the price and quality of the meat she was going to use, because he indirectly wanted to say that the instant noodles were not suitable for the meat to be used. He didn't agree to use the expensive meat for the cheap instant noodles Apple was cooking.

"Okay, thank you," said Apple as she took the two pieces of meat, ignoring the young chef's explanation.

"Oh, and this meat should be cooked to a certain temperature," he said, observing the meat in Apple's hands with worried eyes.

"Let her do what she wants," Jayden told the chef, as he kept telling Apple what to do.

On the other hand, Apple smiled knowing how ridiculous this situation was, especially when she saw the pitiful expression on the young chef's face, which looked like he was about to cry when she started to grill the meat.

He looked like someone, who had just lost something valuable…

Apple really wanted to laugh when she saw the man's expression, because she didn't treat this precious meat up to standard.

"I think that's enough, you can go," Apple said, sparing him the sight of his proud meat's sad ending.

It was not Apple's fault that they only had high- end meat and didn't have regular meat while all the ingredients there were premium.

"You can go," said Apple repeating the sentence because the man just stood there looking sadly at the meat.

"Oh, yes, okay..." he said slowly, as if he had just woken up from his daydream, then walked away from there.

Apple chuckled at his defeated expression.

It didn't take long for Apple to finally cook the instant noodles and serve it to Jayden, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Okay, this is the most expensive instant noodles dish I have ever cooked," said Apple as she served the bowl of noodles in front of Jayden which made the man smile.

Jayden then took out his cellphone and took a photo of the bowl of noodles in front of him.

"You took a photo?" asked Apple with a furrowed brow, because Jayden didn't usually take pictures of the food he was about to eat.

"Yes, because this is my first time eating instant noodles, of course I have to capture the moment," Jayden said lightly. He then uploaded the photo with the caption 'first time' and tagged Apple's social media account.

At this point, Apple didn't know this, she would only figure it out the next morning when she found out that so many people had suddenly followed her account and had to change the settings to private.

"Why are you smiling like that?" asked Apple confusedly when she saw how Jayden smiled while staring at his phone screen, before he returned to face the instant noodles in front of him.

"It's nothing," Jayden replied lightly as he put away his cell phone and started eating enthusiastically. "This is so delicious."

Hearing that, Apple could only grimace and say nothing, but then Jayden wondered about Apple's lack of response.

"What is it? There is something wrong?" he asked, while Apple sat beside him, starting to eat.

"I am not sure if you mean the instant noodles or the meat and all these side dishes," she said in an unconcerned tone. "I feel like this bowl of instant noodles symbolizes me while the side dish is you."

Jayden laughed when he heard the analogy, then he kissed Apple on the cheek softly while speaking gently. "No matter how delicious the side dish is, these instant noodles are still the main highlight. After all, who said that instant noodles are not delicious? This is the main focus of our super."

"You can't say it is delicious when you haven't eaten yet."

"I can feel it."

Apple giggled when she heard that. "Are you trying to please me?"

"Did that work?"

Apple thought for a moment then gestured with her two fingers. "A little."

"I should try more then," Jayden said lightly, then started eating his food again.

Meanwhile, a certain person in the Tordoff family saw the latest post that Jayden shared on his social media account. After all, he very rarely shared private photos and almost never did that.

"He makes me cringe," Misha muttered when he saw the post.
