Chapter 231 You want me to watch you eat?
After getting off work, Tang Yutong hurried into the Big Beard BBQ Restaurant in high heels, with beads of sweat on her forehead.
She quickly ordered from the menu: "Boss, same as usual, another serving of roasted brains, all to go."
“Okay!”
Tang Yutong thought that people often say that what you eat will nourish what you need, so ordering some roasted brain should be able to nourish Chu Ci well.
Carrying a heavy barbecue bag, she went to several fruit stores and finally gathered all the fruits that Chu Ci had mentioned.
Watermelon, lychee, mango... I picked the most expensive of each.
By the time she pushed open the VIP ward door breathlessly, her arms were already covered in red marks from the shopping bags.
She quickly put all the things on the coffee table and collapsed on the sofa.
"I'm so tired."
Chu Ci jumped off the hospital bed with a somersault, his eyes shining like a leopard spotting its prey:
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Tang. You actually bought them all for me."
He couldn't wait to open the package, and the aroma of barbecue instantly filled the whole room.
Tang Yutong glared at him angrily:
"How dare you say that? Just to get these things for you, I almost ran halfway across the capital. I went to several stores but couldn't find what you wanted."
Before he finished speaking, the nurse pushed the door open and came in. Seeing the table full of barbecue and beer, the nurse's brows knitted into a knot:
"Mr. Chu, you can't eat these things."
"Why? Didn't the doctor say that three days of observation would be enough?"
Chu Ci's hand holding the lamb skewers froze in mid-air. He was very happy one second, but his mood plummeted to the bottom the next. The nurse pointed at the beer can seriously.
"Although your concussion isn't serious, you should still avoid spicy foods to help with wound recovery. You should also avoid high-salt, greasy foods, and alcohol."
Chu Ci and Tang Yutong were both stunned. Tang Yutong was the first to react. She directly took the wine next to Chu Ci and put on a professional smile.
"Don't worry, I will watch him and won't let him eat."
Hearing this, the nurse said nothing more, recorded the information and left.
As soon as the door closed, Chu Ci reached for the beer can, but Tang Yutong dodged sideways:
"What are you doing?"
"I was just about to ask you what you were doing, she's gone, hurry up and give it to me."
"The nurse just said you can't drink."
"She was trying to scare you. I'm fine now."
"You can't drink that either. Just bear with it for a few days. When you're discharged, I won't care how much you drink."
Chu Ci suddenly collapsed on the sofa like a deflated ball, looking completely hopeless. Seeing this, Tang Yutong finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this guy had finally calmed down.
She was just about to put the beer back on the table when Chu Ci suddenly turned over, pounced on her, and reached out to grab it.
"Hey! You—"
Tang Yutong reacted extremely quickly. She flipped her wrist and pulled the beer can back. Chu Ci missed it, lost his balance, and fell directly on her.
The distance between them suddenly shortened. Tang Yutong turned her head and the tip of her nose almost touched his chin. As their breaths intertwined, she could clearly feel the warmth of the man's chest.
What’s worse is that Chu Ci’s hand is resting on her chest!
"you……!"
Her pupils shrank, and she raised her hands to hit him, but Chu Ci quickly bounced away and raised his hands in surrender:
"Hey, you...what are you doing? I...I didn't mean it."
Tang Yutong immediately sat up straight, adjusting his suit jacket with trembling fingers, trying to hide his panic.
Luckily, I was wearing a professional suit today with several layers inside and outside, so he should... not have noticed anything, right?
But the warmth on her cheeks couldn't be faked. She had never been touched like this by a man in her entire life...
The ward fell into an eerie silence, with only the faint sound of the air conditioner running.
Chu Ci scratched his head, thinking that being so stiff was not a solution. He cleared his throat and said seriously, "What are you doing?"
"Um...I apologize for what happened just now. If you mind, I can take responsibility."
Tang Yutong immediately glared at him, but her voice was a little softer than usual.
"Who wants you to be held responsible? That's a nice thought. This was an accident... No one can mention it again. Just pretend it never happened..."
Chu Ci was stunned. Why did these words sound so familiar?
It seems that the women who had had a brief romance with him in the past always like to say this, but the problem is that nothing happened between him and Tang Yutong?
He couldn't help but glance at her, but saw that the tips of her ears were red and the lines of her face were tense, and she was obviously still pretending to be calm.
Somehow, a subtle feeling suddenly arose in his heart, different from any previous time.
He had had fleeting affairs with many women, but he had never said he would take responsibility for them. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to say this... but Tang Yutong refused...
In order to break the awkwardness, Chu Ci had to change the subject and said to Tang Yutong:
"I'm really fine now. That nurse was just making a fuss. Just give me the wine."
"I said no, it means no. I just promised the nurse."
Tang Yutong rejected him directly and righteously.
"Then...what should I do with these? You came all this way to buy them for me. It would be a shame to throw them away."
"Who said to throw it away? I'll eat it myself. I haven't had dinner yet, so I'm a little hungry."
Tang Yutong said as she opened several other packaging bags. Chu Ci said in disbelief:
"You want me to watch you eat?"
Tang Yutong thought about it and felt that this was indeed not a good idea. She also didn't like others watching her eat. She glanced around the coffee table and finally set her sights on the watermelon that weighed about 20 kilograms.
When she bought it, she specifically asked the boss to cut it in half for her. The boss also thoughtfully gave her two spoons. She directly picked up half of the watermelon and handed it to Chu Ci.
"You've been asking for watermelon, right? Here, have this. It should be enough for you to eat all night."
Chuci: ...
He didn't need to eat after eating half a watermelon. The doctor didn't tell him not to eat, right? Is this how patients are treated now?
Chu Ci was afraid that she would get tired from holding it all the time, so he took it. Tang Yutong handed him a spoon and then sat back in her original seat.
Chu Ci sat on the single sofa next to her, holding a watermelon in his hand and started eating.
She picked up a skewer of roasted lamb and waved it in front of him deliberately. She parted her red lips, took a bite, and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.
"Mmm~ Really fragrant, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right amount of cumin flavor."
Chu Ci stared at her, his Adam's apple rolling unconsciously, and the watermelon in his hand suddenly became tasteless. He complained:
"Tang Yutong, you are abusing the patient!"
She raised her eyebrows, picked up another string of grilled chicken wings, slowly tore off a piece of meat, and deliberately waved it in front of him before she spoke:
"The nurse said you have to avoid certain foods. I'm doing this for your own good. Besides, how dare I mistreat you? I went to several places to buy that watermelon in your hand."
