In the ward, Zhe Yan had already prepared their breakfast, and when he saw her walking into the room, he greeted her respectfully, “Young Mistress, breakfast is ready. Please enjoy.”
Since she had been drained the night before, Jing Qian was starving. As she looked at the wide variety of food that has been placed on the table, her stomach growled uncontrollably. It wasn’t only audible to Zhan Lichuan, who was near her. Even Zhe Yan, who was far away from them, heard her stomach clearly.
Zhe Yan felt awkward, as he didn’t know if he should acknowledge the sound.
However, Jing Qian remained calm, as if nothing had happened. There were no signs of embarrassment on her face; for as long as she didn’t feel awkward, the awkwardness was non-existence.
As she sat down on Zhan Lichuan’s bed, she wiped her hands with a disinfectant towel and said to him, “Look at how your stomach is growling. Shall I feed you first?”
Zhan Lichuan was confused.
As for Zhe Yan, the only thought that he had was this: ‘So it was Young Master’s stomach that was growling. Young Master had been waiting for Young Mistress for breakfast, and he had been accompanying the Young Master the entire time. It was his mistake for keeping the Young Master hungry.’
“Young Master, Young Mistress, please enjoy your meal. Shall I head out first?” Since the Young Mistress would be feeding the Young Master, they wouldn’t be needing him now.
“Go on.” Jing Qian waved her hands, and before Zhan Lichuan could say a single thing, she already gave out the order.
It was obvious that these breakfasts were freshly made, instead being take-out. The Zhan family must have brought their chefs to the hospital just so they could cook for Zhan Lichuan.
“Let me test it out for you first, just in case it’s still hot.”
Even if Jing Qian got tortured by the food right in front of her till her last breath, she could still calmly pick up a spoonful of glutinous rice balls in sweet rice wine.
Since she had been living overseas her whole life in her previous life, it was extremely rare for her to be able to taste such authentic food from Country Z.
As she placed the delicious-looking glutinous rice ball mixed in a spoonful of sweet rice wine into her mouth, Jing Qian felt as if the sun had turned into the beautiful egg yolk and the cloud had turned into cotton candy that melted in her mouth. The flowers and grass were like a lollipop that was green and red in color.
It was so good that she felt as if the only beautiful thing left in this world was food.
Zhan Lichuan took a good look at his wife. She was still in her pajamas and her hair appeared to look like a bunch of seaweed, showing that she must have had a good sleep, as there were a few strands sticking out from the top of her head.
She looked just like a smart-looking fox who was in fact extremely naïve, one which had gotten a taste of the forbidden fruit and was now so delighted that the world had become beautiful in her eyes.
As the sunlight shone into the room and landed on the delicate facial features of the girl sitting in front of him, she was so gorgeous that it seemed as if she was glowing.
Zhan Lichuan felt as if his eyes were about to become blind from the glow.
Why was she even brighter than the sun during the winter?
“What do you feel like having? I think that you should have some beef porridge. It smells so delicious!”
Jing Qian took a bite and even generously cared for Zhan Lichuan.
Zhan Lichuan nodded his head.
He had never been picky when it came to his food.
Jing Qian took a spoonful of the porridge and said to Zhan Lichuan, “Test the temperature of the porridge to see if it’s right for you. Otherwise, just wait for it to cool down before having it.”
However, Zhan Lichuan immediately swallowed the porridge.
After swallowing it, he replied to her, “My stomach is already growling. It doesn’t matter if it’s still a little warm.”
Jing Qian stared at Zhan Lichuan, and seeing that he was being extremely calm, she decided to stay the same as well.
While giving Zhan Lichuan his second spoonful of porridge, she said, “Even if you’re hungry, you should still be careful about the temperature. Otherwise, it may burn your alimentary tract.”
“Okay. Well… Thank you for your concern.”
