Bai Qingqing was stunned for two seconds, then hugged Ye Qiuxuan with both hands.

The person who came to deliver the food was surprised to find that even delivering food resulted in them getting dog food (a slang term for witnessing a romantic encounter).

Instantly, the people who delivered the food looked at Ye Qiuxuan and Bai Qingqing with maternal smiles.

Huang Binwu looked at Bai Qingqing and Ye Qiuxuan, two handsome men and beautiful women, hugging each other, and grinned mischievously.

I think they're really good-looking.

At the same time, I'm happy for Ye Qiuxuan. It seems that his relationship with Bai Qingqing is mutual, not just a one-sided love on his part.

Otherwise, why would Bai Qingqing hug Ye Qiuxuan?

In the ward, everyone stared at Bai Qingqing and Ye Qiuxuan, who were embracing each other, and no one spoke.

A passerby saw a large table of delicious food inside Bai Qingqing's ward, and the person inside was standing there staring in one direction with a beaming smile.

Passersby also looked curiously in the direction they were looking, and when they saw Ye Qiuxuan's stunningly handsome face.

Passersby couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Wow!"

"So handsome!"

Ye Qiuxuan suddenly heard the sighs of passersby, and only then did she look up to observe her surroundings.

I then realized there were so many people around.

When passersby at the entrance saw that Ye Qiuxuan had spotted her, they felt it was inappropriate to spy on her, and immediately turned and ran away with their faces flushed.

They disappeared through the doorway.

The people who brought the food felt embarrassed to stay any longer. After saying "Please enjoy your meal" to Ye Qiuxuan and Huang Binwu, they immediately left.

Huang Binwu plopped down in a carefree manner, looked at Ye Qiuxuan with a grin, and said, "Ye Qiuxuan, you're finally awake. Dr. Bai has been awake and watching over you for a long time."

"Dr. Bai just fed you your medicine spoonful by spoonful, patiently and slowly with a small spoon."

"I said I would just pinch your nose and mouth and force the medicine down your throat, but Dr. Bai felt sorry for you and disagreed."

She explained that feeding you the medicine that way would make you uncomfortable, and that she would feed it to you slowly, one small spoonful at a time.

"Qingqing, really?" Ye Qiuxuan released Bai Qingqing and stared into her eyes as she asked.

Bai Qingqing nodded emphatically: "Really."

"You don't hate me anymore?" Ye Qiuxuan asked, holding Bai Qingqing's hand with some trepidation.

Bai Qingqing lowered her head and rubbed her forehead against Ye Qiuxuan's, then nestled in Ye Qiuxuan's arms and looked at him.

After much deliberation, Bai Qingqing decided not to tell Ye Qiuxuan that she was the wife of the woman he had recently told him about, the woman who was supposed to be his future wife.

She also didn't tell him about her experiences from her last time in this world.

The last time he came to this world, the ending was too painful. Even if Ye Qiuxuan is a smart person, he can guess the ending just by talking about the beginning without mentioning the ending.

If you don't hide everything, you can't fool him even if you only cover up part of it.

It's enough for you to know and bear your sadness and sorrow alone; there's no need to share it with him.

Bai Qingqing then took Ye Qiuxuan's fingers and played with them in her hand. Lying in Ye Qiuxuan's arms, she looked at Ye Qiuxuan's chin and said seriously, "Ye Qiuxuan, I know that you repeatedly soaked your body in the stream to cool down my fever."

I believe you genuinely like me and treat me with sincerity.

"You've treated me so well, and you happen to have a look that perfectly matches my preferences, so I feel like I feel special towards you too, and therefore I don't dislike you anymore."

"I've come to like you a little."

Upon hearing Bai Qingqing's words, Ye Qiuxuan's face instantly broke into a bright smile.

He grabbed Bai Qingqing's hand tightly with his own.

However, Ye Qiuxuan still suppressed the joy in her heart and patiently asked, "Bai Qingqing, although I like you very much, I have long wished that you would like me back."

But I don't want you to like me because you were touched by the fact that I brought down your fever.

"I don't want your affection based on gratitude; I want your genuine affection."

"If you only like me because you're touched, I can wait until you truly like me."

Upon hearing Ye Qiuxuan's words, Bai Qingqing burst into laughter, looking at Ye Qiuxuan with a radiant smile.

She thought to herself that he was indeed the person she had chosen; even at a time like this, he could still speak with a clear mind and not let his words go to his head.

He dared to directly say what he wanted and what his requirements were, since he was the one who liked and loved more. Bai Qingqing especially liked his principles in handling things.

Bai Qingqing wanted to tease Ye Qiuxuan, so she deliberately didn't say anything, just looked at him and smiled.

Looking at Bai Qingqing, who was all smiles, Ye Qiuxuan couldn't figure out what she was thinking. Her heart jumped into her throat, and she looked at Bai Qingqing with trepidation.

Huang Binwu watched Ye Qiuxuan and Bai Qingqing from the side, then raised his hand and patted his forehead.

He thought to himself that Ye Qiuxuan was really asking for trouble. Bai Qingqing liked him, so wouldn't it be enough for him to win the beauty's heart?

Why ask these questions if it's because you're moved?

He seems so smart, how could he be so stupid about this?

If Bai Qingqing says it's really because she's moved, let's see what he does then!

How will this end?

Amid Huang Binwu's somewhat gloating gaze and Ye Qiuxuan's uneasy look.

Bai Qingqing looked at Ye Qiuxuan and smiled for almost a minute without saying anything. Instead, she climbed out of Ye Qiuxuan's arms and tried to kiss him.

Before Bai Qingqing could kiss Ye Qiuxuan, Ye Qiuxuan quickly cupped Bai Qingqing's face in her hands.

"Qingqing, you don't like me because you're moved, you like me because of who I am, right?"

Bai Qingqing knew Ye Qiuxuan would ask this, so she immediately answered seriously, "Yes."
