Fu Chen glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and did not answer his question, but asked in return, "Are you looking for Sheng Sheng?"
Shengsheng?
Calling so intimately?
Nie Han looked at him and suddenly felt that he looked familiar. After thinking carefully in his mind, he remembered that he had seen him before in the ward of Miss Meng's father in Deqing Affiliated Hospital.
At that time, the man in front of me was still wearing a white coat.
Why are you at Miss Meng's house today?
He suppressed the doubts in his heart and restrained the scrutiny in his eyes. He was not curious about things that he should not be curious about. He just planned to do his job well.
He nodded indifferently and politely to Fu Chen, "Yes, I'm here to see Miss Meng. Is Miss Meng here?"
Fu Chen also had some impression of him. He frowned slightly and moved aside to let him in.
"She's inside. If you have anything to say, please come in and tell her. She's injured and can't come out to greet you."
Nie Han nodded slightly, walked into the living room carrying his things, and was visibly stunned when he saw the dishes on the coffee table.
Meng Sheng smiled at him, "Assistant Nie, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Nie Han greeted her, "Sorry, Miss Meng, I kept you waiting for a long time. There was a traffic jam on the way here."
"It doesn't matter."
Nie Han put the bag in his hand on the table. "This is the lunch that Director Pei asked me to bring to you. He is a bit busy today. He has to meet a client in the afternoon and go to the procuratorate, so he can't spare the time to bring it to you personally."
The smile in Meng Sheng's eyes deepened a little, "Yeah, I know."
"Then enjoy your meal. I'm leaving now."
"Wait a minute, Assistant Nie, have you had lunch? If not, can you stay and eat with us?"
Nie Han paused, then said, "Thank you Miss Meng for your kindness. I had already eaten before coming here. Director Pei has arranged other work, so I won't disturb you while you eat. I'll take my leave now."
Meng Sheng didn't force it and nodded gently, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. Drive safely."
Fu Chen helped him send Nie Han to the door and then returned, sat on her right, and opened the two bags.
There are also three dishes and one soup, and the portions are not big.
But every dish is her favorite.
Fu Chen's heart skipped a beat when he saw the tenderness in her eyes. He calmly placed the bowl of lotus root and pork ribs soup in front of her.
I asked casually, "Was that person just now Lawyer Pei's assistant?"
Meng Sheng scooped a mouthful of soup with a disposable spoon, "Hmm."
Fu Chen looked at her nonchalantly and said, "You and Lawyer Pei seem to have a very good relationship."
This sentence seemed to be said casually and was not taken to heart.
The surroundings became quiet, and Meng Sheng stopped drinking the soup, but her mind flashed through every detail of what had happened between her and Pei Sui during this period of time like a slide show.
She actually already had a clear answer in her mind.
When he approached her again and again, she did not reach out to push him away. This was the choice her heart made for her.
She raised her eyes and smiled, "He is my boyfriend."
A clear and gentle voice slowly rang out in the huge hall, like soothing piano notes, falling into Fu Chen's ears and flowing into his heart.
Especially the three words "boyfriend", which were as heavy as a thousand pounds. From the moment they entered his heart, they were like a mountain, pressing on his heart and lungs.
The heart beat noticeably slower and even breathing became a little irregular.
He turned his head to look at her eyebrows, and after a few seconds, he showed a look of realization, "Oh, now that I think of it, I saw the assistant just now in Uncle Meng's ward last time, and he also brought you food.
You said at that time that Lawyer Pei was pursuing you. When did you agree to him? "
"Recently."
Meng Sheng said ambiguously.
Fu Chen asked, "Does Uncle Meng know?"
Meng Sheng paused while eating again, and suddenly remembered what her father Meng Chengli had said to her yesterday.
She had gone through so much trouble to jump out of the dangerous situation that was Shangjia. Was she going to jump back in again?
The hesitation and uncertainty that had been suppressed deep in my heart surged up again.
These concerns were not due to her lack of confidence in Pei Sui, but rather to herself and the unknown Pei family that she did not understand.
Especially since Cui Xueheng had already given her a preconceived impression.
She concealed the complex emotions in her eyes and took a sip of the soup.
Now that this step has been taken, there is no reason to take it back.
You have to... give it a try.
When she was about to speak, Fu Chen took the lead and said, "I know, don't worry, I promise I won't tell Uncle Meng about this.
Things like feelings always need to be adjusted slowly, and time will prove everything.
Take your time. It won't be too late to talk to Uncle Meng once your relationship with Lawyer Pei is stable. Uncle Meng needs to rest now. He shouldn't work too hard or have too many mood swings."
Meng Sheng's lips moved.
She thought about her father's extremely repulsive attitude towards Pei Sui, and saying it now would undoubtedly add burden to his body.
No need.
What relationship in this world doesn’t need adjustment?
After thinking about it, she nodded, "Yeah, I understand."
The darkness in Fu Chen's eyes faded away, replaced by a gentle smile, "The food is getting cold, eat quickly."
After they had their meal, Fu Chen cleared the table and asked her, "You need to apply ice to the injury on your back again at noon, and then start applying heat at night. Do you need my help?"
Meng Sheng declined, "No, I can do it myself."
Fu Chen didn't force him, nor did he stay any longer. He stood up and said goodbye, "Then you take a rest. If you feel unwell, call me anytime.
Don't worry about the hospital, I will take good care of Uncle Meng for you. I will take the garbage away for you."
"Okay, thank you."
Meng Sheng didn't get up to see him off. When she heard the door closing, she struggled to get up and went to the kitchen to get an ice pack and brought it back to her room to apply cold compress.
Nearing seven o'clock, dusk crept up from the horizon, gradually encroaching on the dying sunset in the west, and the sparks of thousands of homes in the world also became rampant.
When Pei Sui came back with two bags of food, Meng Sheng was leaning on the sofa watching TV.
She raised her eyes, and before she spoke, a smile was already overflowing from her eyes. She greeted him in a calm and natural voice, "You're back."
Pei Sui glanced at the plain and delicate face reflected under the incandescent light. It was just a simple and ordinary sentence, but it was like a warm current that flowed into his cold and temperatureless heart.
The usually clear voice now sounds like the scorching sun and the burning summer breeze blowing on the iceberg.
"Well, I bought some ingredients on the way back..."
Before he finished speaking, he noticed the fruit baskets and various boxes piled up next to the sofa, "Did Professor Fu bring these?"
Meng Sheng was not surprised that he knew about this and nodded, "Yes, Professor Fu came to tell me what happened after my dad's examination yesterday."
"How about it?"
Meng Sheng shook his head slightly and pointed to the eight or nine lists next to him.
Pei Sui frowned after reading it, "What did he say?"
Meng Sheng then repeated the treatment method that Fu Chen had mentioned in the morning. He pursed his lips and held her slender and soft hand tightly.
He whispered soothingly, "He is a doctor with superb medical skills. We should trust him."
"Yes, you are right."
Pei Sui sorted out the lists and put them in the drawer under the coffee table. "Put this aside for now. You'll need it when you go to Linhai in a few days. I'll go cook first."
