Chapter 223 IF Scenario: Xixi VS Chenchen (14)
Shang Chen slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing who it was, his voice was a little hoarse: "You weren't asleep, why are you here?"
Wenxi: "I heard you were sick, so I came to see you."
Aren't you afraid of getting infected?
"I'm not afraid," Wen Xi said calmly. "I'm very strong!"
Shang Chen couldn't help but laugh.
Wenxi asked worriedly, "Shang Chen, are you alright? Your forehead felt a little hot when I touched it just now."
"It would be a problem if it wasn't hot." Shang Chen: "It's fine..."
Shang Chen had only uttered two words when Wen Xi domineeringly stopped him: "Don't be stubborn!"
"If you're really alright, I'm leaving now."
Shang Chen: "..."
Wenxi smiled and said, "Just kidding."
When she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes lifted slightly, her eyes clear as if bathed in warm light.
Shang Chen loved seeing Wen Xi smile the most.
At that time, Wenxi was like a child enveloped in happiness.
He said helplessly, "I do feel a bit unwell and have no energy."
Wenxi then remembered the porridge. "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?!"
She went to get the porridge and realized that Shang Chen had been holding her hand the whole time.
His palms were dry, strong, and a little hot, like an adult's palm.
Wenxi stood there stunned, then suddenly felt a burning sensation in her palm.
She clenched her fingers, trying to get rid of the strange feeling.
I've held hands with Shang Chen so many times before, and it always seemed normal.
Something's suddenly off today.
Shang Chen said with difficulty, "I am indeed a little hungry."
Wenxi pulled her hand away, quickly picked up the bowl of white porridge on the table, scooped up a spoonful in a proper manner, and gently blew on it.
"I'll feed you."
Shang Chen propped himself up on the bed and said with a faint smile, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Wen Xi snorted lightly, "It's not hard work."
"I still remember how clingy I was when I was little, and I wanted you to feed me even when I was eating or drinking porridge."
Before Shang Chen could even manage a laugh, Wen Xi continued, "Once you fed me pumpkin porridge, and I was shaking my head so much that I accidentally wiped it all over my face. When your mom came over and saw it, she was terrified and thought I'd eaten shit..."
Shang Chen: "...That's all you remember?"
"Actually, I still remember everything, but I remember the fun things more clearly."
Shang Chen lowered his eyes and stared at Wen Xi, his gaze gentle.
Wenxi carefully fed him porridge, saying, "I've never fed anyone porridge before, so I'm not very good at it. Please be careful."
Shang Shen said seriously, "I'll be careful and try not to get my face covered in smears."
Wen Xi laughed.
For a while, she would fidget while eating porridge, often getting porridge all over her face.
Unexpectedly, Shang Chen remembered all her embarrassing moments.
After feeding Shang Chen the porridge, Wen Xi chatted with him for a while.
She didn't go back in the afternoon, intending to check on Shang Chen's condition again.
As a result, Shang Chen's fire broke out again in the afternoon.
The family doctor came and gave him an injection.
Wenxi leaned over the bed, her face full of worry, "Shang Chen, why have you become so fragile?"
From now on, I'll call you Princess Shang.
Shang Chen, with his eyes closed, mumbled, "...Don't talk nonsense."
Wenxi exclaimed in astonishment, "You're burning up like this, and you're still conscious?"
Shang Chen remained silent again.
Wenxi asked again, "Shang Chen, can you hear me?"
After a while, Shang Chen responded softly, "Mmm..."
"Is there anything you'd like to eat? Or drink?" Wenxi asked with concern. "I'll go get it for you."
Shang Chen mumbled, "Xi Xi."
Wenxi: "?"
The merchant's mother quietly moved closer and sat down on the other side.
She glanced at Wenxi and said, "He's probably delirious from the fever; he's started talking nonsense."
"You still want to eat Xixi? Dream on."
Wenxi: "..."
When Wenxi and Shang Chen were together, she always felt unreliable.
But when she was with Shang's mother, she felt that she was too reliable.
After giving a few instructions, the doctor went to rest in the next room.
Mrs. Shang kicked Shang Mu and Shang Ze out, saying, "Go do your homework and don't bother your brother."
Shang Ze shouted, "Isn't Sister Xixi still here?!"
“She is different from you.”
"What's different?"
Shang Mu said crisply, "If you stay with Big Brother, he will definitely be unhappy when he wakes up, but if Sister Xixi stays with Big Brother, he will be happy even in his dreams."
Shang Ze was somewhat dissatisfied.
He's his brother's own younger brother, how could he be inferior to Sister Xixi?!
Under her mother's orders, Shang Mu forcibly dragged Shang Ze away.
After closing the door, Mrs. Shang, with a smile on her lips, returned to the bedside.
Wenxi looked at the merchant's mother with curiosity.
She found the merchant's mother's smile a little scary, as if she was about to do something bad.
Wenxi: "Auntie..."
Shang's mother made a shushing gesture at her, leaned closer to Shang Chen, and asked, "Shang Chen, are you awake?"
After a moment, Shang Chen called out in a hoarse voice, "Mom..."
Mrs. Shang smiled and said, "There's something I've always wanted to ask you: Do you have any girls pursuing you at school?"
Wenxi: "?"
Wenxi blinked, not wanting to disturb Shang's mother.
Because she was also curious about this question.
Shang Chen suddenly opened his eyes, his dark eyes fixed on his mother.
He seemed to be in a lot of pain, his eyes were still a little red, but his tone was very certain: "No."
Mrs. Shang: "Do you have a girlfriend?"
Shang Chen gazed at his mother for a long time.
After a long silence, when the air seemed to thicken, she finally asked in a hoarse voice, "Mom, what exactly do you want to ask?"
The merchant's mother immediately cowered, "You're still sober?!"
Shang Chen: "..."
He's just sick, not stupid.
Wenxi said softly, "Auntie is curious whether you have a girlfriend or whether any girls are pursuing you. She's probably worried about your marriage."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shang Chen and his mother's eyes were fixed on her.
Meeting Wenxi's clear and open eyes, Shang's mother was speechless.
Shang Chen replied earnestly, "No."
"My marriage is settled."
Wenxi's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked curiously, "What's the arrangement?"
"You want to know?"
Wenxi nodded.
Shang Chen: "But only my future wife can know."
Wenxi opened her mouth, somewhat stunned.
After saying this, Shang Chen closed his eyes and lay down on the bed, seemingly having used up all his strength.
Wenxi finally had time to catch her breath.
Shang Chen's future wife?
The thought flashed through her mind, and her thoughts became increasingly chaotic.
At this moment, Wenxi remembered something.
It seems she and Shang Chen are engaged.
By nightfall, Shang Chen still hadn't woken up.
Wenxi went back ahead of time.
After taking a shower, she sat on the living room sofa with a pillow in her arms, waiting for Zhou Ruo to come home.
As soon as Zhou Ruo got off work, she saw her daughter sitting in the living room and said with a smile, "Sweetie, are you waiting for Mommy?"
Wenxi nodded, her little face full of seriousness and solemnity.
"Mom, I want to ask you something."
After changing her shoes, Zhou Ruo went over and hugged Wen Xi. "What's wrong?"
"Does our family have a marriage agreement with the business owner?"
