Song Qingchun walked to Su Zhinian and handed him the glass of water and medicine, adding, "Better take them now lest your fever returns later . "
Su Zhinian stood where he was and stared directly at Song Qingchun, giving zero reaction .
Song Qingchun thought this was because he didn't like bitter medicine, so she opened her lips and uttered in a supplicating tone like one might use with an unruly child, "You'll feel better if you take it…"
Su Zhinian suppressed his urge to reach out . His hands gripped tightly until his perfectly manicured nails poked into the ball of his palm .
Song Qingchun frowned, noticing Su Zhinian's lack of response . She met his gaze with some confusion, and after holding his gaze silently for a few seconds, the message that he didn't say slowly registered in her heart .
How could she have forgotten the abyss that should have been between them . He had been indisposed when she carried him home the previous night, but now that he was himself again, it was time for her to leave .
A great sense of disappointment pressed down on her heart . Her eyes that stared at Su Zhinian started to waver . Like a thief caught red-handed, her dark pupils started to dart nervously before she eventually lowered her head .
Similarly, her hands that held the glass of water and medicine also fell weakly to her side . The room fell into an awkward silence .
Neither party spoke for a long time . Song Qingchun took a deep breath to counter the disappointment rising in her heart . She raised her lips and flashed a forced smile at Su Zhinian, explaining, "I had to carry you home because you fainted yesterday night . You were all alone at home, and I was worried you would need help in the middle of the night so, so I stayed . "
Then again, he has mentioned repeatedly that there is no longer any relationship between us, so why should I care if an accident did happen to him?
The more Song Qingchun explained, the more beaten she felt . She elaborated until her voice couldn't be heard anymore .
"I understand," Su Zhinian said clearly and after a moment, added, "Thank you for your help . "
"No need, anyone else would do the same . " Song Qingchun smiled forcibly before lowering her head again .
Sensing the tension that had started to rise in the room, Song Qingchun swallowed deeply and added in a rush, "Remember to take your medicine, the amount in my palm is the amount Doctor Xia recommended . "
For some reason, Song Qingchun felt a burgeoning sadness in her heart . She knew it was time to bide her farewell, place the glass of water on the table, and leave . However, perhaps she still worried about his fever or for some other reason that she couldn't explain, but she found herself unwilling to leave .
She tried her best to make herself not look so sad and maintained the levity in her voice as she said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving . "
"Okay . " Su Zhinian stared at the top of her head, and sadness flashed across his eyes . However, it disappeared as fast as it appeared . He said that one simple word and nothing else .
Song Qingchun noticed his reticence and assumed that was because he couldn't wait for her to leave .
Song Qingchun felt the pain in her heart growing, and her nose started to twitch, foreshadowing the coming tears and sniffles .
