Huo Yeshuo couldn't help but smile slightly: "Then get up now and go to the hospital."
"I'm not going."
Lin Zhenzhen immediately closed her eyes, straining so hard that her eyelids turned red, looking completely like a shameless rogue who wouldn't listen to reason.
Huo Yeshuo was silent for two seconds: "Give me a reason for not going to the hospital, at least let me be sure that you didn't lose your mind because of the fever."
"I want you to stay with me."
"All I want is for you to take care of me."
I want to be with you.
Are these reasons valid?
Lin Zhenzhen's eyes, nose, mouth, and entire face were flushed a bright red. Because her nose was blocked and she couldn't breathe properly, she could only slightly open her lips and breathe in small, gentle breaths.
His dark pupils stared at him intently, as if those eyes could only hold him.
Huo Yeshuo pursed his lips, his fist slowly clenching.
He wasn't a person with an unstable mind, yet he could easily switch between anger and pleasure, becoming as indecisive as a fool, because of a single word she said, a glance she gave, a touch she made, or the word "boyfriend" she uttered.
Huo Yeshuo never puts himself in a passive position, but the initiative in a relationship is determined from the very beginning; it's not something that can be obtained through effort.
After a full ten seconds of silence, Huo Yeshuo suddenly asked, "Are you hungry?"
"Hmm?" Lin Zhenzhen blinked. "It seems so. I just got up and haven't had breakfast yet."
Huo Yeshuo stood up.
Lin Zhenzhen immediately grabbed his sleeve and asked pitifully, "Where are you going?"
Huo Yeshuo sighed: "I'll go buy you something to eat."
"oh."
When he arrived, he saw a breakfast shop downstairs that seemed to be doing well and looked fairly clean.
It was getting late, and there wasn't much left, so Huo Yeshuo picked out some items that still looked warm and packed them up.
He was a stranger, and his appearance was outstanding, so all the elderly people around him were staring at him.
The woman at the breakfast shop handed him the packaged food: "Young man, are you a new resident?"
Huo Yeshuo took the bag, took out his phone to scan the QR code: "No."
"So you're here to find a girlfriend, right?" the old lady said with a grin. "Is she the girl from apartment 601 upstairs?"
Huo Yeshuo was taken aback, because Lin Zhenzhen's rented apartment was 601.
"You can tell at a glance, she's the only young girl around here. Tsk tsk, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, they're a match made in heaven. Don't you think so, honey?"
The middle-aged man wiping the table next to Huo Yishuo looked up at him and replied briefly, "Yes, they're a good match."
Huo Yeshuo smiled faintly: "Thank you."
"Hey, young man, don't rush off." The old woman leaned out and stuffed two more eggs into his bag. "Those aren't enough for you. These two eggs are a free gift."
"This..." Huo Yeshuo was a little surprised by the stranger's sudden kindness.
He always believed that there might be bad things in this world without a reason, but there would never be good things without a reason.
"Go quickly, don't let the little girl go hungry," the old woman said with a smile, urging him to leave.
Huo Yeshuo thanked him and left thoughtfully.
Because the lock was pried open, the door cannot be closed temporarily and is only slightly ajar.
Huo Yeshuo opened the door very quietly, and the person lying on the sofa did not react, facing inward and remaining motionless.
He put down the food in his hand and walked closer, and saw that Lin Zhenzhen's eyes were closed and her breathing was deep and even, clearly sleeping soundly.
Huo Yeshuo lowered his eyes and called her name very softly.
“Aya Zhen”.
Lin Zhenzhen's eyes snapped open, revealing bloodshot veins and lingering fear.
"...Sorry, did I wake you up?" Huo Yeshuo didn't expect that she could actually hear his deliberately lowered voice.
Lin Zhenzhen narrowed her eyes, staring intently at Huo Yeshuo with a look that could be described as wary.
One second, two seconds...
The defensiveness in her eyes gradually crumbled, replaced by the initial tenderness.
"You're back. How come I fell asleep again?" Lin Zhenzhen rubbed her cheeks, then suddenly her nose twitched slightly. "Wow, it smells so good."
Following the aroma, she found the takeout breakfast on the table, excitedly grabbed a small steamed bun, and popped it into her mouth.
"careful......"
"Hot, hot, hot, hot." Lin Zhenzhen pouted and exhaled, her eyes becoming even redder.
Huo Yeshuo quickly poured her a glass of warm water.
"Don't rush, take it slow."
Lin Zhenzhen drank the water in her glass in one gulp, and when she looked up, tears streamed down her face.
She frowned, but quickly relaxed her brow, curled her lips into a smile, and said somewhat deliberately, "Oh dear, you've scalded my tears."
Huo Yeshuo handed her the tissue box.
Lin Zhenzhen took the tissue, her eyes lowered, her eyelashes trembling slightly: "Don't you have anything you want to ask me?"
Huo Yeshuo looked up, his expression unreadable.
The tears in Lin Zhenzhen's eyes hadn't yet faded. She tilted her head slightly and chuckled, "I'll answer anything you want to know."
Huo Yeshuo pursed his lips, lowered his eyelashes, and remained silent.
Lin Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow: "Since you're not going to ask, I'll speak first."
She tilted her head back, her tone certain: "That package about He Xiaoxiao, you sent it to Lu Yangyun, right?"
