Even though Yin Shaojie had grown up with Mu Xiaoxiao, he had never tasted anything made by her. What right did this fellow have to do so then?!
Mu Xiaoxiao understood him and knew that he was about to explode with fury in a glance.
She hurriedly explained, “No, it’s not; it was prepared by the cook in the house. I can’t cook at all; I’m an idiot in the kitchen…”
She looked at Han Qiqing beside her. Smiling, she continued, “Unlike Qiqing. Qiqing’s really awesome! Her mom’s cooking rivals that of a five-star chef’s, and Qiqing’s been learning how to cook from her mom since she was little, so her food is really tasty! If you ever have the chance to, you should try out her cooking, or you’ll definitely regret it!”
She widened her eyes at Lu Yichen, waiting for him to assent to eating Han Qiqing’s porridge.
However, Lu Yichen, being as dense as a block of wood, was totally indifferent to the lavish praise she had dished out, his gaze still fixated on her hands.
“What breakfast did you bring for me?” he asked. He was slightly smiling as though he was more interested in what she was carrying.
Mu Xiaoxiao said, “Uh…”
She was exasperated! Did he not pick up on what she had been trying to hint at?
She said embarrassedly, “Didn’t you say that you’d eaten?”
Lu Yichen could take a hint sometimes too. Looking at Han Qiqing, he smiled lightly as he replied, “Since both of you brought it, I’ll not waste your efforts, even though I’ve already eaten before I came to see the doctor.”
The hospital did prepare three meals for him, but he still preferred to eat at home.
Han Qiqing’s expression instantly transformed from a depressed one to a sunny one. “Really? You’re going to taste my cooking?” she asked happily.
“Yeah.” Lu Yichen nodded.
Seeing Han Qiqing smiling again released the burden in Mu Xiaoxiao’s heart.
She had been really worried earlier. If Lu Yichen only ate what she had brought, wouldn’t Qiqing be really hurt?
A look at the time showed that it was getting late.
Mu Xiaoxiao had originally wanted to simply bring breakfast over and ask how Lu Yichen was in passing. Seeing that he was fine and willing to eat the breakfast she had brought, she was ready to make her way to school.
Yin Shaojie, who was beside her, was impatient. His expression was glacial.
Not daring to let this particular Young Master wait any longer, she told Lu Yichen, “Classes are about to start soon, so we’ll be going off now.”
It would be awkward for Han Qiqing to stay, so she left with them.
Yin Shaojie’s patience finally reached its limit once they were out of the room. He wrapped an arm around Mu Xiaoxiao’s shoulders.
He seemed to know what she was thinking and ordered dictatorially, “You’re not allowed to come here again after school! Do you hear me?”
He started to plot. He needed to think of a way to keep this girl chained to him in the afternoon so that she couldn’t go anywhere!
Thinking about how she was so caring and concerned about Lu Yichen earlier made his stomach churn with fury.
This girl had never cared so much about him before!
Mu Xiaoxiao was used to his tyrannical ways and pretended not to hear him.
She was more worried about Han Qiqing right now.
Han Qiqing had looked a little sullen ever since they stepped out of the patient’s room.
“Little Qing, are you alright?” she walked to Han Qiqing’s side and asked concernedly.
Qiqing had always been happy and optimistic. It was rare to see her so down.
Han Qiqing sighed deeply and lifted her head up to look at her, her eyes brimming with a myriad of emotions. “Xiaoxiao, don’t you feel as though Lu Yichen likes you?” she asked faintly.
