Chapter 821: Chapter 794: Not tired, no strength? 8
The Christmas feast was ready. Gu Qingxin looked at Bai Jingqing, who had been sitting motionless in the living room, and went to call Bai Qianqian from her room.
Unbeknownst to her, Bai Qianqian had fallen asleep. When Gu Qingxin woke her up, her voice had changed. It was clear that she had caught a cold.
She herself felt light-headed and stuffy-nosed, a discomfort prevalent in her entire body.
Seeing this, Gu Qingxin hurriedly went to find Bai Jingqing to check on her, before Bai Qianqian even had the chance to stop her.
“Doctor Bai, Qianqian seems to be sick. Can you take a look at her?” Gu Qingxin called out as soon as she went out of the room.
“Qingxin, I’m fine. There’s no need to fuss.” Bai Qianqian came out and pulled at her.
Bai Qianqian knew Bai Jingqing was still angry, and certainly wouldn’t want to deal with her.
Bai Jingqing, who had just risen from his seat, sat back down immediately upon hearing Bai Qianqian’s words. Well, this girl doesn’t want him to check on her even when she’s sick- why should he insist on involving himself?
“I really am fine. Let’s eat.” Bai Qianqian finished speaking and went past her to wash her hands in the restroom.
Looking at Bai Jingqing’s cold face in the living room, then glancing at Bai Qianqian. What was going on with these two?
The Christmas feast was quite sumptuous, with all kinds of seafood available. Beiming Han, looking at the prepared abalone, picked one up and placed it in the bone dish in front of Gu Qingxin, saying, “Try it and see how it tastes.”
Gu Qingxin swallowed upon seeing the cooked abalone in front of her. Why did the seafood she once enjoyed eating seem so strange to her now?
“I want to eat shrimp, not this. You can eat this.” Gu Qingxin quickly picked it up, and with a giggle, brought it to his mouth.
Ha~ Did she not know how to tease him back?
Beiming Han, without even looking at the food in front of him, had been gazing intently at the girl feeding him, and opened his mouth to bite off a piece and took the time to savor it…
His perfect lips curved slightly, “The taste—— is quite good.”
She withdrew her chopsticks in embarrassment. Why did she feel like she was the one being teased?
“Eat! Picky eating isn’t good for your health.” Beiming Han held her hand, and brought the abalone he had taken a bite from to her lips.
“Finish it all… Xiao Yi is behaving better than you are.”
Gu Qingxin quickly looked at Xiao Yi sitting next to her. She didn’t know who had given him the abalone, but he was energetically gnawing at it and enjoying his meal.
Seeing her looking his way, he silently smiled at her. With his innocent, wide eyes staring at her, it was as though he was telling her it tasted very good.
With a quiet retraction of her gaze, she simply could not bear to look directly at him!
The two men sitting opposite were also eating…
“Alright, don’t watch anymore. Eat your shrimp.” As Beiming Han started peeling the shrimp for her, he brought his lips to her ear and said, “It seems like you’re feeling guilty.”
“I’m not feeling guilty at all… It’s you who…”
The offender always complains first. Gu Qingxin turned her head in annoyance, only for her lips to be met with a kiss. She widened her eyes in surprise, but the man who had kissed her had already pulled away and continued peeling the shrimp without a care…
The atmosphere at the dining table was still relatively pleasant. Everyone was occasionally toasting each other, occasionally sipping their drinks, and each was in high spirits.
Halfway through the lunch, a sudden “thump” sound was heard. Everyone looked over together, only to see Bai Qianqian falling off her chair and lying on the ground, unconscious…
