Her gaze was very serious.
Cheng Yanzheng did not reply; he still couldn't get used to Jiang Tian's politeness.
He repeated his question: "What would you like to eat?"
Jiang Tian shook her head: "There's nothing I want to eat."
"Then I'll make the arrangements, okay?"
Cheng Yanzheng didn't ask any more questions. The patient didn't have much to eat, and since Jiang Tian didn't want to eat anything, he might as well decide for her.
"Can."
Cheng Yanzheng's men were very efficient and quickly delivered a lot of hot meals to the ward.
Jiang Tian is still a little dizzy, but Cheng Yanzheng has taken good care of her, setting up the small table and even handing her chopsticks and a soup spoon.
Sure enough, Jiang Tian had no appetite. She ate a little bit and then fell back into a deep sleep.
Cheng Yanzheng did not leave the ward all night.
He would fulfill any of Jiang Tian's needs immediately.
Even when going to the toilet, Cheng Yanzheng was very sensible and called a nurse in to help.
He is a qualified caregiver.
It was the third day when the two left the hospital.
Given Jiang Tian's current health condition, going back to the company would be a loss for her.
"Let's go straight back to the villa."
Jiang Tian rubbed her forehead and said to Cheng Yanzheng, "Aren't you going to work today either?"
"Um."
“I’m much better now, and I don’t want to affect your work schedule because of me.”
Cheng Yanzheng has never lived with people who grew up abroad, so he doesn't know if everyone is this particular.
He pretended not to hear, started the car, and drove smoothly to the villa.
Jiang Tian saw him taking things out of the car with large and small bags and wanted to reach out, but Cheng Yanzheng quickly dodged her.
"Don't worry, I'm only helping you this way because I consider you a friend. I treat all my friends this way. If you want to thank me for my kindness, I can tell you that my kindness doesn't need to be reciprocated, so you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself."
Cheng Yanzheng blurted out all his thoughts in one breath.
Jiang Tian was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared in her eyes: "Okay, I understand. You consider me a true friend, and I'm glad to have such a loyal friend like you."
She stopped being polite, and Cheng Yanzheng's expression softened somewhat.
Once the two entered the villa, Jiang Tian received Cheng Yanzheng's attentive care.
Cheng Yanzheng is very good at taking care of people.
Jiang Tian rested in the villa for two days, and in just a few dozen hours, her complexion improved significantly.
Looking at the soup Cheng Yanzheng had just finished cooking, Jiang Tian looked up at the "chef": "Is this how it is in wealthy families? Is cooking a required course?"
Cheng Yanzheng's expression remained unchanged. He shook his head and said, "I'm not a rich young master, just an ordinary person. Hurry up and drink your soup."
Jiang Tian drank her soup attentively.
The atmosphere between the two was very harmonious.
However, as soon as she recovered, Jiang Tian couldn't wait to go back to work.
Cheng Yanzheng tactfully offered his thoughts: "You can't work too hard in your career. Perhaps you could consider balancing work and rest."
Jiang Tian was packing some work supplies to take to the company tomorrow. Hearing his words, she said helplessly, "Work is very important to me. It means that I have evolved from a semi-mature human who needs to be given charity into an independent person who can be self-sufficient. It means that I no longer need to accept gifts from others to survive in this world."
“Design is an industry I love very much; it has rekindled my passion. However, I will take your advice into consideration. The unexpected situation arose because the project deadline was too close. I will adjust myself in the future. Don't worry, I also value my health.”
"If you value your health, you won't skip breakfast."
Cheng Yanzheng pointed this out sharply.
Jiang Tian stared at him, speechless. "How did you find out?"
"I only asked your assistant about your work hours. Based on your departure and arrival times, you probably don't have time for breakfast."
Jiang Tian was finally speechless.
She covered her forehead helplessly: "Okay, I admit it, I haven't had breakfast in a while."
"But you refused my breakfast."
“Because—” Jiang Tian hesitated before speaking.
"Because you don't consider me one of your own, and you don't want to accept charity from others."
Jiang Tian was unusually flustered.
At this moment, she was finally less distant, and even her eyes seemed a little weak.
"...Yes, you guessed right." She admitted it nonetheless.
“Everyone has their own upbringing, and I don’t pry into your past. But I was taught from a young age to take care of my own people. We’ll be living together for a while longer, and as I’ve said before, making your breakfast won’t take me more than a minute or two. If you feel indebted to me, then play your role as a wife well. I’ll make your breakfast tomorrow. If you don’t have enough time, you can get up early, and I’ll make sure you eat.”
Jiang Tian's face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence: "You're a little too nice to your friends."
Cheng Yanzheng admitted this: "Not many people can make it onto my list of friends."
"Then why did you include me on this list?"
Cheng Yanzheng was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Because you're not a bad person."
She kept a great distance from others, but she wasn't a bad person. He was very good at sensing a person's goodness or evil from their eyes.
Jiang Tian is not a bad person. When they went to the old house for dinner together, she did her best to help him stabilize the situation.
So, he was willing to treat her as a friend.
This time, Jiang Tian finally stopped asking.
She nodded: "Okay, then I'll just have to mooch off you."
The two finally reached an agreement on breakfast.
Cheng Yanzheng's worries were also relieved.
He treated Jiang Tian with the same attitude he would show his brothers.
As long as his friends are willing to stand by him, he will be loyal and do his best to be good to them.
From that day on, Jiang Tian and Cheng Yanzheng's relationship took a step closer.
Jiang Tian is still trying to maintain the qualities of a good roommate, and Cheng Yanzheng is also well-mannered.
The two respected each other, and their life was quite good.
The project that Jiang Tian was in charge of had ended. That evening, she called Cheng Yanzheng and said, "We're going to have a celebration party. I think I'll be back very late tonight and I might get drunk. If it's inconvenient for you, I'll find a hotel nearby to stay in."
After a brief pause, Cheng Yanzheng asked, "Where are you having dinner?"
Jiang Tian mentioned the name of a restaurant.
"Around what time will it end?"
"uncertain."
"I'll be there at 11 o'clock. You recognize my car, so just come over then."
Jiang Tian couldn't help but laugh again. She didn't say any more of the usual polite words, but just said one word: "Okay."
