Chapter 3: If you embrace me ( III )Xie Boyu carried Lu Man brought her to his car's passenger seat. Then he helped her fasten the seatbelt and drove her to the hospital. Knowing that she hadn't eaten anything, he stopped on the way to buy hot porridge.
Lu Man enjoyed the care she got from Xie Boyu. Sitting on the passenger seat, she holds a mug filled with porridge and drinks from it through a straw while tightly wrapped in a thick coat. Her originally uncomfortable stomach due to emptiness gradually feels better.
After arriving at the hospital, she was still in charge of all matters. It's not until Lu Man was put on an intravenous drip did he finally take a breath. The hospital has always been crowded. The benches on the hallways are always filled with patents. Xie Boyu stands nearby them.
The surroundings are very noisy and not really peaceful. After being put on an intravenous drip, Lu Man no longer feels so unwell and her previously pale face improved. Her consciousness is no longer muddled. She smiled and stared at the person standing beside her.
The look of avid love from her eyes had always fallen on to him, Xie Boyu thinks that it is difficult not to be aware of it. He wants to ignore it but he was too close to her. He can see her smiling from his peripheral vision.
The complexion of her face still looks a little unwell. With the most vivid expression, she expresses the purest love from her eyes. He didn't look at her. He softly said: "I'll go get some hot water." After saying that, he walked away.
Lu Man looked at Xie Boyu's back until he went far. It took a long while before she took back her line of sight. She looked at the IV drip and breathed out. She leaned her back against the chair. System S520 communicated with her in her mind.
S520 concernedly asked: "Man jie, do you feel better?"
(Man jie: Sister Man; Jie means sister. Man is Lu Man's name)
Too lazy for courtesy, Lu Man returned a sentence: "Get to the point."
S520 took the initiative to say after being rebuffed: "……The target person good feelings of you have risen. The capture has reached 20%."
Lu Man seems to be curious and asked: "How do you calculate the percentage of capture?"
Although it feels that Lu Man is not really interested, S520 still seriously said: "The system monitors the changes in the target person's mood, attitude, feelings and other data analysis. After that, get the appropriate results."
Lu Man cannot help but laugh: "The Love Support System even relies on these?"
S520 smiled embarrassingly: "You learned the trick with familiarity, we don't have this ability."
(System 520 is basically saying that Lu Man is very experienced and knew those things)
From the beginning, she doesn't have a favorable impression of the system. Until today, still like this, she didn't understand the system's real objective. It's simply a matter of feeling. You can have a careful machine and a little calculation. But it can't fool anyone to be toyed with.
She remembers that when she was bound to this second-hand system, S520 said that she has a lot of emotional experience and was very good at playing with a man's feelings. It's really not a good thing to hear.
Is she the kind of person who plays with other people's feelings? She was very genuine and sincere with every boyfriend she had. she has never played with them nor two-timed. Is it her fault to be tired of it after three months…..
Lu Man didn't pay attention with regards to S520 flattering a person the wrong way. She has now fallen in this field. Besides the cooperation with the system, there is no other choice……
If it wasn't for this trashy system……!!!
Lu Man stills feels uncomfortable when she thinks about the matter of her body being taken away. She isn't really convinced that the system can send her back. How was it exactly? At least there is still a glimmer of hope now.
Her thoughts drifted away and affected her mood. Lu Man got rid of these thoughts and converged her mind. Xie Boyu came back with hot water on a disposable cup and handed it to Lu Man. She reached out to take it and thanked him. Holding the cup with one hand, she slowly drinks it.
Later on, Xie Boyu went to get medicine and so on. After Lu Man finished the drip, he drove her back to the old villa. He finally left after making her take the medicine. Before he left, he told Lu Man that she didn't have to take tutoring lessons today.
In the afternoon, after knowing that her daughter had a high fever, Jiang Mingzhu took the time to see Lu Man. She also brought two thermos bottles filled with old hen soup and lean meat porridge. After making sure that her daughter no longer has a fever, Jiang Mingzhu told her to rest and finally hurried to go to catch up on a business trip.
In the early days of winter, Xie Boyu returns from work to his home. In front of his yard, a bright light illuminates a small figure sitting on the stairs. He squinted and slightly frowned. His face became more serious.
When Xie Boyu walked near, Lu Man slowly stood up. She picked up the two thermos bottles by her feet and dangled it in front of Xie Boyu's face. She smiled and asked: "Do you want to eat dinner together?"
It was very cold outside. He had no idea how long she had been sitting there. Her small face is white and frozen. Her cheeks are strangely flushed. Xie Boyu looked at the person in front of him for a few seconds only to end up saying: "Come in." He bypassed Lu Man and opened the door with his key.
After entering the house, Xie Boyu took the soup and porridge to the kitchen to heat them. He also steamed sweet and soft glutinous corn and sweet potatoes. He was busying in the kitchen. Lu Man stood by the kitchen door while rubbing her hands (to heat them up) and lowly voiced out: "My mother came to see me this afternoon."
She didn't inform Jiang Mingzhu. It can only be him.
Xie Boyu said: "You should tell your mother."
Lu Man looks startled. She smiled and her tone seems to be relaxed but the volume is low: "When I was in third-grade primary school, my mother and father divorced. When I went to school, the teacher called me to the office and told me not to affect other students. Teacher Xie, Are all adults so cruel?"
Xie Boyu wrinkled his brows and he heard Lu Man say: "I'm just a little sick. There's no need to tell her. She's very busy. She doesn't even have time to manage if I study hard."
