Shouldn’t she throw away the ones he didn’t eat?
“Those aren’t touched. Isn’t it a pity to throw them away?”
She had bought too much. Other than the bowl of porridge, he hadn’t touched anything else. It would be a waste if she threw them away.
However, Shi Nuannuan didn’t seem to care about these things. Moreover, she had her own plans!
“It’s fine!” In the end, she still left the ward to throw away all the food.
This way, she could buy him breakfast the next morning!
At 8:40 pm, Shi Nuannuan still did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
“Aren’t you going back?”
“I’ll stay with you for a while longer!”
She knew what it was like to stay in the ward alone. When she was hospitalized, at least her family was there. However, Xiangyi’s family was far away in G City. Furthermore, they were not his real family, though close enough.
“There’s no need for that. You should hurry back.”
If she arrived home late, Madam and Mr. Shi would probably be suspicious.
“I already told my mommy!”
Xiangyi was stunned.
Told her?
“That’s right. My mommy does not object to the fact that I like you. She also said that she feels more assured because it’s you!” said Shi Nuannuan because she wanted Xiangyi to feel at ease. At least for now, her mommy had already approved of him. The only person left now was her grandfather.
“Madam…”
“Xiangyi, have you… ever liked me?” Shi Nuannuan looked up, her pitch-black eyes extremely serious. Her sister-in-law was right. If she wanted to understand Xiangyi’s thoughts, he had to say it himself!
He stared at her and did not speak for a long time.
How could he not like her? How could he not like her?
Ever since she barged into his world, her appearance and figure had been constantly lingering in his mind. Even though he could not think about or look at her, she would always think of all sorts of ways to get him to speak and reply to her messages. She was always the one taking the initiative.
How could he not like her? Her appearance, voice, and name had long been ingrained in his heart, and he could not extricate himself from it.
“Xiangyi…”
His silence only made Shi Nuannuan’s heart nervous again.
She did not understand why he wanted to keep her a thousand miles away. However, at other time, he cared so much about her. Even if his wounds were ruptured and his life was in danger, he would still get out of bed and care about her safety.
Just as she was about to continue speaking, Xiangyi suddenly said, “Okay.”.
Shi Nuannuan was stunned for a second.
‘Okay? What does ‘okay’ mean?’
Her big, watery eyes stared at him, somewhat uncertain.
“I like you.” Xiangyi looked into her pitch-black eyes and uttered the three words she’d been longing to hear.
One, two, three, four seconds passed…
It was not until a minute later that Shi Nuannuan finally came back to her senses. Then, her heart burst with joy!
He had finally admitted it! He finally admitted that he liked her!
She was extremely excited, but Xiangyi spoke again, “You don’t care about anything, my identity and my background?”
Shi Nuannuan shook her head desperately. She could not hide her excitement. “I don’t care. I only like you. Will you date me?”
Xiangyi was stunned. Shouldn’t he be the one to say that?
“Wait for me to be discharged from the hospital.”
“Okay!”
If he had already fallen in love, he did not want to live with regret until his death.
Having experienced the brink of death once, now all he could think about was regretting not being able to tell her that he liked her personally.
