Boil the noodles in a pot until cooked.

Add Bok Choy to the boiling water with the noodles for a minute or two.

Prepare the broth by covering it with a piece of parchment paper to prevent evaporation.

Chop up some carrots and add them to the broth.

Check the tenderness of the beef; if it's not tender enough, let it cook longer, but the creator decides to eat anyway.
