She nodded. "I guess."

Shen Siwei took a glutinous rice chicken from the table, removed the cotton thread and the outer lotus leaf, and handed it to her, "Don't dirty your hands."

Sui Zhao felt a little uncomfortable, but he still lowered his head, took a bite, and chewed slowly.

The flavors of the chicken and mushrooms are completely marinated into the glutinous rice, which is very fragrant.

Seeing him looking at her, she nodded slightly, "It's delicious."

"Then eat two more bites."

Shuang Xu, who wanted to step forward to take the things, stepped back and quietly went to the corner to serve as his own human screen.

She ate half of it, couldn't eat any more, and shook her head.

Shen Siwei put his things away, washed his hands in the basin, and poured her a cup of warm water, "Moisten your throat."

Sui Zhao held the cup and looked at him.

"how?"

She shook her head and pointed to the storybook that Shuang Xu had put aside. "I don't want to talk today, so you read the storybook to me."

"Yeah." Chen Siwei took the storybook and opened it.

"Have you had your dinner?"

"Not yet. They are still working on it. They can only be used when we return later. Where have you read so far?"

"The part where my sister was tied to the head of the bed by my grandmother's hair."

Shen Siwei glanced around and confirmed the location, "Are you not afraid?"

"Are you afraid I'll still listen?"

"Yeah." Shen Siwei continued reading to her, but his tone was flat.

Shuang Xu went to ask someone to boil medicine.

Sui Zhao looked at him while hugging a soft pillow, and there was some light in his eyes, which had been gloomy.

Chen Siwei raised his eyes, and the corners of his lips slightly raised.

After finishing the story, Shen Siwei took a sip of tea and asked, "Do you want to listen more?"

"You should go back for dinner."

He lowered his eyes and said, "Sit a little longer."

Sui Zhao moved closer to him, smiling: "Chen Luyuan, are you worried about me?"

"Um."

"Don't lower your head. I can't see your expression, so how can I know what you are thinking?" She sat cross-legged, holding her face with her hands and leaning on the soft pillow, looking at him, smiling as if she had regained her energy.

Chen Siwei raised his eyes and looked deeply into her eyes, "An An, are you in a good mood?"

"Okay, what's the matter?"

"How about staying for two more days?"

"Okay." She was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

She came for him, to seek an answer, and the answer was obvious.

Chen Siwei raised his hand and stroked the top of her head, his expression tinged with tenderness, "From tomorrow on, I will be fine for the time being. Get better soon and I will invite you to go on an autumn outing."

"That's what you said." She raised her head slightly and rubbed her head against his palm.

"Yeah." He smiled faintly.

Shuang Xu brought the medicine over, "Miss, it's time to take the medicine."

Sui Zhao took it and drank it in one gulp.

Shen Siwei looked at her and asked, "Is it bitter?"

Sui Zhao shook his head. "It's not bitter. The medicine my father gave me is only slightly bitter at most. It's not so bad that I can't drink it."

"Your father also knows medicine?" He was a little surprised.

In the eyes of the world, the emperor is a legend.

"Yeah, I can do it, but not as good as Daddy."

Chen Siwei brought her some warm water to help her get rid of the taste of medicine in her mouth.

Seeing that she was in better spirits and it was getting dark, Shen Siwei stood up and left, "I'm leaving. I'll come back tomorrow morning."

"good."

After he left, Sui Zhao rolled over on the couch, holding Shuang Xu's hand, and said in an excited tone: "Shuang Xu Shuang Xu, he likes me too, right?"
