"I...I just feel a bit better and wanted to take a walk."
After saying that, she lay down on the bed.
Chu Yiyun stayed in the hospital for half a month, and when she had recovered enough, she was discharged.
He first went to the military unit to report Jiang Jin's situation to his superiors and learned that Shao Fei had also apprehended the two thugs. His superiors told him not to rush back to work and to rest and recover at home first.
So he thought of finding Chen Shengnan to thank her for saving his life back then.
I waited for two days at the National University of Defense Technology but didn't see her. I remembered that the last time she had a disagreement with Jiang Jin, it was at that iron pot stew restaurant.
He figured it was noon, so he'd try his luck and see if he could run into her.
He rode his bicycle toward the restaurant that served stew in an iron pot.
Looking around at the people inside, I was somewhat disappointed; she wasn't there.
But since he was already there, and the iron pot stew here suited his taste, he ordered an iron pot chicken.
He waited quietly for the dishes to be served.
"Boss, one serving of iron pot chicken, please."
Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Yiyun turned around with delight and indeed saw the familiar figure.
He quickly stood up, walked towards Chen Shengnan, and said with a smile, "I just ordered a pot of chicken, so don't order any more. Let's eat together, as a way of thanking you for saving my life."
Chen Shengnan looked up at the man in front of her. He was really handsome, with a kind of devilish charm.
He used to be cold and aloof, but this time, when he spoke to her, there was a faint smile on his lips.
She seemed much gentler, giving off a very approachable vibe.
Chen Shengnan didn't stand on ceremony. Considering that she had helped him last time, it wasn't unreasonable for her to accept a meal from him. All the clothes for today had been sold out, and she had also returned the apartment. With only two days left before school started, she planned to take a good rest these two days.
So he said, "Alright!"
Chen Shengnan told the boss not to serve the dish she ordered again.
Just then, the iron pot chicken that Chu Yiyun ordered arrived, and Chen Shengnan sat down opposite him.
Chu Yiyun felt inexplicably nervous, watching the girl in front of him sit down without the slightest hesitation.
She picked up her chopsticks, smiled at him, and said, "Can we start eating now? I'm hungry."
Chu Yiyun noticed the sweat still glistening on her forehead and took out a handkerchief from his pocket. "Wipe the sweat off your face before you eat."
Chen Shengnan waved her hand; "No need, I still have your handkerchief from last time."
As she spoke, she took a handkerchief out of her pocket and wiped the sweat from her face.
Chu Yiyun noticed that she was using the same handkerchief he had given her that time, and he was surprised that she still had it.
His earlobes felt inexplicably hot, and Chen Shengnan, the "heroine," smiled and said, "Let's eat!"
Chu Yiyun nodded.
Chen Shengnan was really hungry. She had sold so many clothes this morning that her mouth was dry and her stomach had been growling for a while.
She didn't stand on ceremony and ate with great relish.
Looking up, she saw Chu Yiyun staring at her. She touched her face and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
He just felt that she was really different from other lesbians, and that she had a very straightforward personality.
Other women were always very shy and reserved around him, but she wasn't at all.
"Nothing much? You seem to be enjoying your meal."
"The stew in an iron pot here is really delicious! Don't just watch me eat, you should eat some too!"
As she spoke, Chen Shengnan picked up a large chicken leg and handed it to Chu Yiyun, saying, "Here, one for you and one for me, eat quickly."
Chu Yiyun looked at the chicken leg in the bowl, his smile widening. He took a bite and said, "It's really delicious."
It seems to taste even better than the one he ordered separately last time.
"By the way, I still don't know your name."
Although he already knew her name, he wanted to hear it from her.
He wanted her to tell him herself.
"My name is Chen Shengnan, what's yours?"
Chu Yiyun
As Chen Shengnan put a bite of food into her mouth, she said, "Your name is really nice."
When Chu Yiyun heard her praise his name, for some reason, his heart fluttered. He hadn't cared about the name before, but now he was even grateful to his parents for giving him such a beautiful name.
"Do you live here?" he asked, looking at Chen Shengnan in front of him.
"I am a student at the National University of Defense Technology, and I don't live here."
He really wanted to ask her why he hadn't seen her come out of the school these past two days, even though he had been waiting for her there.
But not now.
"Thank you for saving me last time. I probably wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you. I still have some connections in Huashi. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me anytime. My home is in the military family compound on Qinghe Road."
Chen Shengnan said nonchalantly, "You treated me to dinner today for saving you last time, so we're even."
Chen Shengnan agreed to have dinner here because she thought he might care about this matter.
She knew that the thing rich people disliked most was owing favors, something Su Li had told her before.
"How can that be? A mere meal can't make up for it at all. Do you think my life is only worth a meal? If we're talking about meals, you should treat me to meals for the rest of my life."
Chen Shengnan: This person looks quite upright, but I didn't expect him to speak so plainly.
Seeing Chen Shengnan's unpleasant expression, Chu Yiyun knew that his joke had gone too far.
So he explained, “Comrade Chen, I didn’t mean anything by it. I just feel that your life-saving grace is greater than anything else. If there’s anything I can do to help in the future, just let me know as soon as possible. As long as it’s not illegal or criminal, I’ll do anything.”
"No need, I just did it on a whim, you don't need to worry about it."
Chu Yiyun smiled and said, "Comrade Chen, has anyone ever said that you are special, especially unconventional?"
Chen Shengnan: ".........."
Are you insulting me? Saying I'm too rough around the edges?
"No, I just think you're a really good person. Jiang Jin is really ungrateful. He's messing around with someone as good as you."
Chen Shengnan's face turned ugly as soon as he mentioned the general.
"He and I are in the past, let's not talk about it." She had finally gotten a little better and didn't want to think about him.
Hearing the phrase "it's in the past," Chu Yiyun felt inexplicably happy.
"Okay, I won't mention him anymore. If I had a partner as good as you, I would never mess around outside."
Chen Shengnan glanced at the man in front of her. What did he mean by those words?
When a man looks at someone with his bright, clear eyes, you often have the illusion of being enveloped by his deep affection.
Chen Shengnan shuddered at the thought. Someone she had only met a few times was showing her affection.
This suggests that this person isn't necessarily very devoted to relationships, something Su Li mentioned when they were chatting.
She should avoid contact with people like that. "I've finished eating. I have to go to school this afternoon, so I'll head back now."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Chu Yiyun quickly stood up and said, "It's a bit far from your school. I think you must have been tired all morning. Let me take you!"
