Before going to the hospital to pick up Tonghua, Qin Zun went outside the hospital and bought some fruit.

Tonghua was still making a fuss at noon. She saw that other people in the hospital had fruits to eat, but she had nothing.

She looked like she would throw a tantrum on the spot if he didn't buy it.

Qin Zun felt a little weird at that time.

This time, Tonghua's behavior during her illness was as if she had transformed into a little child. Her attitude towards him had been sometimes close and sometimes distant before, but he didn't expect that when she fell ill this time, she would rely on him so much.

This feeling is very wonderful.

It was an experience he had not had in nearly thirty years.

Due to family reasons, he has been rather cold since childhood. He has never been close to anyone, and naturally, no one will take the initiative to get close to him.

Tonghua's kindness and dependence on him during her illness were like a clingy puppy, opening its belly and actively asking for touches and plays.

Since she mentioned that she wanted to eat fruit, he would satisfy her.

When he arrived at the fruit store, he was a little confused because his family had never bought fruit before.

I don't know what she likes to eat.

How about giving her a call and asking?

But what if she is still sleeping? Wouldn’t that wake her up?

After thinking for a while, Qin Zun decided to buy a little of each fruit.

"I'll have one of each fruit."

The boss was surprised to hear his request: "Sir, are you sure you want to buy so much? Even if you're giving it away, you can't buy so much. Fruits will rot easily after a short time."

The fruit shop was located next to the hospital, and many people would come there to buy fruit to visit patients, so it was not difficult for him to guess Qin Zun's intention.

"So what kind of fruits can sick people usually eat?"

"You can buy durian and stew it with chicken. Durian is the king of fruits and contains a variety of rich vitamins..."

When it came to recommending fruits, the boss started talking non-stop and Qin Zun had to interrupt him.

After eating the durian, the smell lingered for a long time, and he didn't want to get the smell on himself.

"Is there any other choice?"

"You can also buy some amethyst grapes and cherries. They are rich in vitamin C and can..."

Not wanting to continue listening to his boss's sales pitch, Qin Zun immediately made his choice: "Okay, let's pick these two."

The boss packed up the things quickly, Qin Zun paid the money and left.

When Qin Zun entered the ward, the first thing he saw was Tonghua lying on the windowsill, leaving only her thin back to him.

He walked over and closed the windowsill.

He told her, "You haven't recovered from your cold yet, so don't get exposed to the wind."

Tonghua turned around and glanced at the fruit he was carrying. He was so happy that he jumped up and down.

"Hey, be careful."

Qin Zun supported her.

"Wow, there really is fruit! Finally, I can eat fruit while in the hospital."

Qin Zun couldn't help but laugh: "It's just buying some fruit, what's so difficult about that?"

Unexpectedly, Tonghua's high spirits immediately turned to depression: "Yeah, it's not that difficult. When my brother was sick and hospitalized before, he always had fruit to eat. The fruit was specially peeled for him, just for him."

Qin Zun did not speak, but just listened silently.

"But every time I'm in the hospital, I want to eat fruit like my brother, but the most common thing I get is, 'You're older than me, and being sick is a huge expense, so how can we have extra money to buy you fruit?'"

For a moment, the ward fell into silence.

Looking at Tonghua's lowered head, Qin Zun wanted to reach out and touch her, to comfort her, and tell her that she could buy whatever she wanted to eat in the future and she didn't have to worry about these things anymore.

But his hand was raised in the air and did not fall down.

It is easy to make a promise, but it is difficult to keep what you said.

This is also the reason why he doesn't make promises easily.

If the promise is not fulfilled, the other party will only get greater disappointment in the end.

However, Tonghua's mood did not stay low for long, and she quickly adjusted herself.

When she looked up, there was a bright smile on her face again.

But this kind of smile looked particularly dazzling in Qin Zun's eyes.

He finally understood why, after Tonghua fell ill this time, her personality became completely different from her own.

Being spoiled, playful, and dependent on others are more like the characteristics of a child.

This is all because some of her bad childhood experiences left some deep shadows on her, and her fragile body made her mind fragile and sensitive as well.

What a young man cannot obtain will eventually hamper him for the rest of his life.

Qin Zun felt a little regretful that he didn't buy apples. He couldn't even peel some fruit for her.

"I'll go wash the fruit for you."

Qin Zun picked up the grapes and cherries, washed them all and put them in the fruit bowl.

He thought to himself that he should buy her some apples when he returned later.

"I don't know what kind of fruit you like, so I just bought some at random."

Tonghua didn't take it to heart: "It's okay, as long as there is something to eat."

Seeing that it was cherries and other more expensive fruits, she pouted and said: "Why did you buy such expensive fruits? I just wanted you to buy an apple and a banana. Aren't these what you buy when you see a patient?"

"The boss said eating these will help your cold heal faster."

Tonghua picked a plump, round cherry and played with it in her palm. "You must have been tricked by the fruit shop owner. How quickly your cold heals has nothing to do with eating fruit. He just thinks you look rich, so he recommended expensive fruit to you."

"It's okay, I don't care about that."

Tonghua was just about to make a grand speech to show off her excellent insight, but when she heard these words, she had no choice but to eat her cherries awkwardly.

It turns out that expensive fruits are delicious.

Tonghua became more and more happy as she ate, and suddenly she accidentally got some juice on her face. Qin Zun took out a tissue without thinking.

He was about to wipe her face, but when he was about to put the tissue on Tonghua's face, he felt something was wrong.

Fairy Tale was eating fruit and wondering why they didn't continue.

She looked at Qin Zun with a pair of confused eyes.

Qin Zun said unnaturally: "You do it yourself."

After saying that, he handed the tissue to Tonghua, who didn't care.

After wiping his face, he continued to eat.

Seeing that she was enjoying the meal, Qin Zun also smiled.

The time was almost up and the IV drip was almost finished, so Qin Zun went out to find the nurse.

The nurse took out the injection for Tonghua, while Qin Zun went to the doctor to go through the discharge procedures.

The check-in procedure for the VIP ward was very quick and was completed in less than ten minutes.

Tonghua changed her clothes and left the hospital with Qin Zun.
