Ye Shengge bit her lips and resisted the urge to cry.
The man finally finished tidying up, but he still didn’t say a word. He seemed to be about to turn around and leave, but in the next second, he suddenly frowned and covered his stomach with his right hand.
His Adam’s apple bobbed, as if he was trying to suppress something. He couldn’t help bending down and pressing his left hand on her shoulder to find support.
Ye Shengge’s expression changed. “What’s wrong, Shiting?”
The man looked at her, not showing any emotions.
Ye Shengge couldn’t figure out what was going on. She recalled that the man had only had a cup of coffee in front of him in the restaurant in the evening, and then he left shortly after. Perhaps he hadn’t eaten anything at all.
Ye Shengge held him and said, “Sit down. I’ll get you some hot water.”
Ji Shiting didn’t say anything. Perhaps it was because the pain had rendered him unable to speak, but he sat on the edge of the bed. He was bent over because of the pain, and Ye Shengge’s heart ached.
“I have stomach medicine here. Wait…”
She then rushed to the medicine box and rummaged through it, looking like she was about to cry. Fortunately, she found the stomach medicine not long after. She handed it to the man and said, “Take a pill first. I have an induction cooker here. I’ll prepare a bowl of noodles for you.”
The man took a look at the medicine in her hand, but he didn’t move. He frowned even more.
Ye Shengge couldn’t help raising her voice, “Why are you spacing out? Eat it!”
That man had always been in good health. When he was in Yang City, he had enough secretaries, assistants, and servants to take care of his life, so once he lost their care, his ability to take care of himself would probably be zero.
Ye Shengge didn’t dare to think whether it was because of her that he hadn’t eaten dinner. Perhaps it was the first time he had forgotten to eat.
“Bitter,” the man said. “It’s just a stomachache. I won’t die.”
“Bitter?” Ye Shengge glared at him as if she hadn’t expected such a reason.
“Take it away,” he said.
However, he pressed his hand harder against his stomach. Obviously, another wave of pain was coming.
Perhaps it was because she felt sorry for him, or perhaps it was because she was worried, Ye Shengge lost her mind. She handed her the cup and ordered, “Take it!”
She sounded fierce.
Ji Shiting looked at her and took it.
Ye Shengge immediately popped a pill into her mouth and kissed him hard. Before the man could react, she put the pill into his mouth with the tip of her tongue and let him go.
“Just swallow it!” She glared at him, her eyes red as if she was about to cry.
Ji Shiting frowned, took a sip of water and swallowed the pill.
“Finish all the hot water.” Ye Shengge breathed a sigh of relief. “I’ll cook you some noodles. Wait a bit.”
She then went to get the induction cooker and noodles. Thanks to Lin Qi, the girl wasn’t used to western food, and she had to cook some noodles or porridge from time to time, so the room was full of ingredients, including vegetables and eggs.
