Chapter 110 You've Taken Advantage
Pei Jingyan paused his movements and slowly looked up at Chen Lai.
Shen Lai felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, and said with his neck stiff, "Don't think too much. I did this because you were injured because of me."
Seeing that Shen Lai's expression was full of unnaturalness, Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows, and a playful arc appeared at the corner of his lips. He pushed the bowl and spoon in front of Shen Lai, "In this case, Miss Shen, please help me."
Chen Lai covered her lips and coughed lightly, then took the breakfast from Pei Jingyan.
Pei Jingyan leaned against the head of the bed cynically, watching Chen Lai carefully blow the porridge to cool it down. He even took a sip from the edge to test the temperature, and only brought it to his mouth after confirming that it was not hot.
"Open your mouth."
Pei Jingyan opened his mouth cooperatively like a patient who opened his mouth for food and took the porridge in.
"How is it?" Shen Lai asked curiously.
"It tastes good." Pei Jingyan said lazily, "Miss Shen is so skilled. Did you feed your ex-boyfriend like this before?"
Shen Lai curled his lips and said, "Why should I feed him if I have nothing to do?"
Besides, Huo Chilin had never suffered such a serious injury as Pei Jingyan. Even if he had, there were nurses to take care of him, so it was not Shen Lai's turn to cook for him.
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "So, this is your first time feeding someone else?"
Shen Lai held his head high and puffed out his chest, “Of course, do you think I’m always taking care of people when I’m full and have nothing to do?”
Pei Jingyan smiled, "Then I am really honored to have Miss Shen take care of me for once."
Shen Lai rolled his throat, pretending to be fierce, "It's good that you know. I don't take care of people easily, so you took advantage of me."
After saying that, she stuffed the spoon in her hand into Pei Jingyan's mouth and said, "Eat quickly, you're so nagging."
Pei Jingyan was not annoyed by the porridge stains on the corners of his mouth, and continued to eat in a casual manner.
For a moment, the only sound in the ward was the clashing of bowls and spoons, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
After finally finishing his meal, Shen Lai had just put down his bowl when the ward door suddenly opened from outside.
Shen Lai thought it was the doctor coming. She turned her head and saw Yin Ningjing appear at the door of the ward.
Shen Lai was stunned, and his heart tightened inexplicably.
It seems that Yin Ningjing already knows what happened to Pei Jingyan.
Pei Jingyan didn't look surprised at all. "Mom, why are you here?"
Yin Ningjing's eyes fell on Pei Jingyan's arm, which was wrapped in thick gauze. Just looking at the area, it was obvious that the injury must be serious.
Yin Ningjing's face was tense. "This online incident has caused a lot of uproar. Do you think I didn't see it?"
Pei Jingyan teased: "When did you become fond of surfing the Internet?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Yin Ningjing said unhappily, "Do you think you can keep your injury a secret from me?"
When she said this, she looked at Shen Lai deeply, obviously with some hidden meaning.
Pei Jingyan followed her gaze to Shen Lai and said calmly, "I'm fine, right?"
Yin Ningjing's solemn expression finally eased a little, and she asked in a firm tone, "What did the doctor say?"
Pei Jingyan said calmly: "The doctor said it's okay, just take good care of yourself."
Even so, Pei Jingyan was injured in order to save Shen Lai. How could Yin Ningjing not blame him? She turned her head to look at Shen Lai, and said with a bit of displeasure, "You just let Jingyan fight for you?"
Shen Lai tightened her fingertips. Just as she was about to respond, she was interrupted by Pei Jingyan, "Mom, if you have time to scold my wife here, why don't you think about how to teach the person who hurt your son a lesson."
Seeing that Pei Jingyan was deliberately protecting him, Shen Lai's heart seemed to be wrapped in a warm current.
Yin Ningjing's eyes wandered between Pei Jingyan and Shen Lai's fingertips. How could she not see such obvious protection? But in the final analysis, this matter could not be blamed on Shen Lai. She could be considered half a victim.
What's more, even if Pei Jingyan didn't say it, she would not let Bai Hansui go.
From childhood to adulthood, she was reluctant to say a harsh word to Pei Jingyan, let alone Bai Hansui, an actor in the entertainment industry, who dared to touch anyone from the Pei family without knowing the consequences.
"Do I need you to remind me?" Yin Ningjing said unhappily, "Your father has already taken action. Now that she's in jail, her good days are truly over."
Pei Jingyan knew his father's methods best. This time, not only Bai Hansui, but also the people of the Bai family were not spared.
At this time, Yin Ningjing turned to look at Shen Lai, and said in a hard tone: "How about you, are you okay?"
Seeing Yin Ningjing taking the initiative to care about herself, Shen Lai took advantage of the situation and said with a smile: "I'm fine."
Yin Ningjing's eyes fell on her lower abdomen. "Where's the baby in your belly? Have you checked it?"
"I checked it out and it's fine."
Yin Ningjing finally felt relieved. "I asked you to resign earlier, but you didn't listen. If you had listened to me earlier, you would have..."
"Mom, I'm tired, you go back."
Pei Jingyan lazily interrupted her before she finished speaking.
Yin Ningjing glared at Pei Jingyan unhappily. How could she not see that her son was deliberately protecting Chen Lai, but she couldn't do anything about him.
Looking at Pei Jingyan's pale face due to injury, and then at the gauze wrapped around his arm, Yin Ningjing felt a lump in her chest. Finally, she picked up her handbag and left in a rage, her high heels making noises on the ground.
After Yin Ningjing left, the ward became quiet again.
Shen Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Rather than dealing with Pei Jingyan's parents, she would rather flatter people in the entertainment industry. At least it wouldn't be so tiring.
Pei Jingyan suddenly said, "Don't take my mother's words to heart."
Shen Lai came back to her senses and saw Pei Jingyan looking at her. She shook her head and said, "Your mother is right."
If it weren't for her, Pei Jingyan wouldn't have been injured so badly, so it's normal for Yin Ningjing to blame her.
The next second, Shen Lai's face was suddenly lifted up.
Pei Jingyan lifted her chin, his deep eyes close at hand, so deep that they seemed to be able to suck people in. He stared closely at Shen Lai's eyes, as if something was surging in them. "I said, I took the initiative to save you. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself."
The two of them looked at each other, and Shen Lai felt uncomfortable being stared at by him. She subconsciously avoided his gaze and said dryly, "I know."
Pei Jingyan then withdrew his hand. Chen Lai felt as if lava was flowing through the places he touched, leaving behind a scorching hot temperature.
That afternoon, Shen Lingzhen and Chang Suning also came to the hospital. They saw the news online and rushed over without stopping.
I heard that Pei Jingyan did this to protect Chen Lai, and Chen Lai was scolded.
Perhaps because he felt guilty, Shen Lai rarely refuted and lowered his head obediently to accept the training.
After teaching Shen Lai a lesson, the two began to care about Pei Jingyan's health. They were grateful and guilty for him saving Shen Lai.
Shen Lingzhen looked at Shen Lai and warned: "Jing Yan is in this state because of you. You have to take good care of him. Do you understand?"
Shen Lai said with a guilty conscience, "I understand."
They chattered for most of the day until the nurse came over and reminded them not to disturb the patient's rest, and then they left the ward.
As soon as they left, Pei Jingyan's lips curled up into a meaningful smile, and he dragged out his teasing tone, "Miss Shen, did you hear that? Your parents asked you to take good care of me."
