Chapter 270 - Are you in love with me?
Seeing that he would lift the blanket, Ning Xiaofei immediately reached out and pressed the corner of the blanket, and said fiercely, “Lie quietly and don’t move. I’ll make some porridge for you. Do you hear me?”
The man frowned.
Stinky girl, yelling at him again!
“Did you hear that?”
She raised her voice.
Mu Tianye’s brows furrowed for a moment, then stretched, the corners of his eyes slowly rising.
historical
“Okay.”
Only then did Ning Xiaofei turn away, hurriedly ran downstairs, rummaged through the fridge and cupboards, but couldn’t find rice.
She frowned, turned and ran out. She swept a glance at the wine rack and grabbed the half-drunk wine bottle. She emptied the wine inside and added hot water to it, corked the bottle again, wrapped it in a towel and carried it upstairs. She uncovered the blanket and stuffed it into his stomach.
Turning around, she pulled the trash can, placed paper towels, and the water cups on his side of the nightstand. Finally, she took the phone from her coat.
“Just throw up if you want. I’ll come back and clean it up. Call me if you need anything, I’ll be right back.”
When she finished, she turned and ran again.
“Where are you going?”
“Never you mind. Anyway, just lie there and don’t move!”
Her voice rang outside the door, some distance away. Obviously, she had gone downstairs.
On the pillow, Mu Tianye opened the quilt and looked at the wine bottle in his arms which he had only drunk one glass after opening it. Presumably, Ning Xiaofei had dumped the red wine straight down and now it contained hot water to help warm his stomach. He was dumbfounded. If his friend who’d given him the wine knew that the good wine he’d kept for years was poured out of the bottle and was being used as a hot pack, he’d be furious.
More than half an hour later, Ning Xiaofei, who was sweating profusely, raced back upstairs with a box of rice porridge in her arms.
She originally wanted to buy some rice back, but the supermarket was closed, so she circled around the neighborhood before buying this leftover porridge from a snack shop that was about to close.
Opening the lid, she used a spoon for a spoonful of porridge and brought it to Mu Tianye’s mouth.
“Have some hot porridge and get some sleep.”
She’d been trotting the whole journey, so she panted while she spoke. Her face was flushed with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. Probably from wiping her face with her hands on the way, her delicate makeup has long since became a colorful cat. Her hair had also run wild and strands were sticking to the sides of her face...
She was definitely not that exquisite and beautiful, but Mu Tianye couldn’t help feeling disoriented.
“What are you staring at? Eat, it will get cold later.”
The man opened his mouth and swallowed the porridge from the disposable spoon in her hand.
Noticing the man’s eyes staring at the disposable plastic bowl in her hand, Ning Xiaofei couldn’t help but feel a little apologetic.
“The supermarket is closed, so I didn’t buy any rice. I’ll call Ms. Liu tomorrow morning and ask her to bring some over. You’ll just have to make do tonight... This kind of porridge cooked in a big pot is the worst, but easy to digest...”
“What’s the point of getting angry like this in the future, when you end up hurting yourself?”
“Xicheng has a girlfriend doesn’t mean anything to me.”
“You, ah...are just a big jealous man. You’re such a grown up, but...so childish!”
........
While feeding him the porridge, she scolded.
The man, who was always foul-tempered, just quietly ate the porridge, without a word of rebuttal, but ate the bowl of leftover porridge cleanly.
Afraid that he hadn’t eaten enough, Ning Xiaofei looked at the empty bowl in her hand, which she had scraped clean.
“How about...I’ll make you something else to eat?”
“Ning Xiaofei.” Mu Tianye didn’t answer her question, but gazed up into the girl’s large, dark eyes, “Are you in love with me?”
The question came so abruptly that Ning Xiaofei froze.
