Song Lin never expected his wife to treat Du Yi so badly today.
He frowned and shook his head at Xu Keke, signaling her not to treat Du Yi that way.
He knew she was worried about him, but they were colleagues and would be working together again in the future. Besides, who could have predicted an accident? Du Yi hadn't done it on purpose. Even if she was upset, there was no need for her to make it so obvious.
If Xu Keke knew what Song Lin was thinking, she would probably just sneer. It's unbelievable that she feels sorry for him.
Her coldness towards Du Yi stemmed entirely from his micro-expressions. Although he said those words with a smile, his nostrils suddenly flared, and the right corner of his mouth turned up. She wasn't blind.
The smile carried a hint of disdain. Remembering how the original owner of this body had pretended not to see him before, Xu Keke felt annoyed with him as well.
If Song Lin hadn't shown any expression, Du Yi wouldn't have been bothered. But he could have seen the expression Song Lin made. This made Du Yi feel like he'd lost face.
Du Yi wouldn't have been polite to anyone else in the factory. After all, his uncle was the factory manager.
But Song Lin happens to be a technician in the factory, a respected intellectual. This time, it was because of him that he was hospitalized again.
Even knowing that Xu Keke was treating him badly, Du Yi could only let out a soft rebuke and lower his head under the pretense of eating.
Seeing Xu Keke's expression, Song Lin realized there was no sign of the situation easing, and he couldn't help but frown.
Song Lin reached out and took the lunchbox with some displeasure.
After opening his lunchbox, Song Lin subconsciously glanced to the side. Du Yi was engrossed in eating his scrambled eggs, and Song Lin's brows furrowed even more.
Seeing Song Lin's disdainful look, Xu Keke felt even better.
Song Lin lost his father at a young age and was raised by his mother. In his mother's eyes, he was her lifeblood.
Since Song Lin and Zeng Jin got married, his mother, Lin Juan, said that they were busy with work and she had nothing to do at home after retirement, so she took over the cooking duties.
She never allowed anyone to put anything on the stove. She kept all the rice, flour, cooking oil, and even an egg locked in a cupboard.
The original owner worked in a large workshop, while Song Lin, who sat in an office, didn't commute at the same time.
Lin Juan said that the food couldn't wait once it was ready. She always set aside a separate portion for the original owner of the food.
What they brought for the original owner were all leftovers from the night before last.
The original owner was busy with work every day and didn't care about these things, so she never paid attention to them. Xu Keke didn't believe that Song Lin wouldn't know.
"Zeng Jin, have you eaten? I'm not hungry yet. If you're not full, have some more."
Song Lin used two fingers to pick up the spoon from the lunchbox. He smiled and looked at Xu Keke.
Xu Keke rolled her eyes inwardly at this hypocrisy.
Why didn't you ask anything when you took the lunchbox? It's only now that the food isn't tasty that you remember.
Xu Keke didn't stand on ceremony and stepped forward. She took the spoon from his hand, scooped up a spoonful, and stuffed it directly into Song Lin's mouth.
Caught off guard, Song Lin had his mouth stuffed with food and instinctively tried to spit it out. Xu Keke leaned forward to make sure the food in the spoon got into his mouth before distancing herself from Song Lin.
She put the spoon back into his hand.
Song Lin and Zeng Jin both knew how rude the action was. But Du Yi, who was looking down, caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye and was startled.
They suddenly got so close, their faces were almost touching. This couple is going too far, doing such intimate things so openly in public.
Du Yi lowered his head even further, and his ears turned visibly red.
Song Lin held the spoon in his hand and glared fiercely at Xu Keke.
She can't even take care of people, what's with all the pretense of gentleness? She almost poked her own mouth in the process. Song Lin was angry, but he couldn't show it in front of Du Yi.
I was afraid she would see I wasn't eating and feed me again. Ignoring the unpalatable food, I picked up the spoon and scooped it into my mouth.
Just then, the door opened from the outside, and the young woman who had been seen in the corridor walked in.
"Oh, Master, you've eaten. Grandma told me that Master Zeng didn't go back to get his food, and I was worried you'd be starving, so I rushed over to bring it to you."
This girl's name is Lin Meijia, and she's also in the technical department; she's Song Lin's apprentice. Xu Keke smiled as she looked at her; she was young and beautiful. If she were a man, she'd like someone like her too.
Upon hearing Lin Meijia's words, Song Lin's hand froze in mid-air.
No wonder the food was so bad today. He had felt something was wrong earlier. His mother used to work in the factory canteen, and even when life was tough in the past, she never let him eat such bad food.
"Meijia!" Du Yi was overjoyed to see Lin Meijia, his eyes crinkling with laughter. It seemed that if he hadn't injured his leg, he would have jumped out of bed long ago.
Lin Meijia ignored him and looked at Song Lin, who was in a daze, with a resentful expression.
Xu Keke ignored their commotion. Smiling, she walked over and took the lunchbox from Lin Meijia's hand.
“Look, I was worried that your master would go hungry, so I gave him my food first.”
"Ah! If I had known, I would have come earlier. I didn't even eat before rushing here..."
Lin Meijia looked at Song Lin with her big, bright eyes, her expression aggrieved.
Song Lin smiled reassuringly at her. He knew his apprentice was delicate, and he was touched that she had rushed over to bring him food before she had even eaten.
Just as I was about to say something to comfort her and say it was okay, I heard Xu Keke say from the side,
"Don't worry, you even brought food with you. Your master and I wouldn't want to waste your good intentions."
Seeing Xu Keke carrying the lunchbox she had brought inside, Lin Meijia felt a little unhappy. She felt that Xu Keke's words clearly made her feel like an outsider.
