Reduce the heat to medium and add the cooked noodles to the pan, tossing them with the vegetables.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Pour this sauce over the noodles and vegetables.
Toss everything well to ensure the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes.
