Lu Xiangnan froze on the spot after hearing just one sentence; he thought he had misheard.
After a long pause, he cautiously asked, "What did you just say?"
Jiang Tian closed her eyes wearily: "Never mind if you didn't hear it."
Lu Xiangnan pursed his lips and hugged Jiang Tian without saying a word.
For the first hug in two years, Lu Xiangnan couldn't quite describe the intense emotions swirling within him; he only felt as if the empty space in his heart had been filled.
My heart is pounding.
After hugging her for a short while, he frowned and said to Jiang Tian, "You've lost weight."
Although they spent very little time together, he took good care of her, and now she is still soft-spoken, but has obviously lost a lot of weight.
Jiang Tian nestled in his arms, her eyes closed, her warm breath brushing against his neck: "Stop talking nonsense, carry me to the bedroom, I want to sleep for a while."
Lu Xiangnan followed her instructions. After carrying her inside, he touched her forehead again; it was still a little hot.
But Jiang Tian was unwilling to go to the hospital.
Lu Xiangnan had no choice but to spread out all the blankets on the bed and pull Jiang Tian inside. She frowned and complained, "It's hot."
"Sweating it out will make you feel better."
Lu Xiangnan was even hotter than her, but he couldn't bear to let go of Jiang Tian, so he stayed with her, sweating profusely.
Jiang Tian struggled a few times but couldn't escape the blanket's hold, and fell asleep with a furrowed brow.
Lu Xiangnan didn't even want to blink.
He still feels like he's dreaming.
Yesterday they acted like strangers, but today Jiang Tian allowed him to hug her, and they even lay together.
He couldn't figure out what Jiang Tian was thinking. He was determined not to back down, but one sentence from her made him unable to resist coming closer.
Lu Xiangnan stared at her for an unknown amount of time, and then, without disturbing Jiang Tian, he got out of bed to cook porridge for her.
His culinary skills hadn't deteriorated; it's just that the person who was willing to let him cook was gone.
Now that she's back, her cooking skills have returned too.
Lu Xiangnan was worried about leaving Jiang Tian alone at home, but when he opened the refrigerator, it was empty. Lu Xiangnan didn't know what she had been through in the past two years, but it was inconvenient for him to ask now.
He placed an order online and bought a large amount of ingredients.
When the food was all set out, he saw Jiang Tian leaning against the door watching him.
Without thinking, Lu Xiangnan instinctively touched her forehead, and finally the fever subsided.
Are you feeling better?
Jiang Tian didn't speak. Although she was still a little weak, her eyes were clear.
The two stared at each other silently. A bad feeling rose in Lu Xiangnan's heart. His expression changed, and after a while, he slowly lowered his hand.
"Thank you for taking care of me. You can go back now."
Cold yet polite.
The bad premonition that Lu was heading south came true.
He stared at Jiang Tian, his eyes reddening: "What kind of relationship do we have now?"
Jiang Tian smiled at him: "Give me some time, let me think about it carefully, okay?"
Lu Xiangnan's heart leaped into his throat: "...How long?"
Jiang Tian shook her head: "I don't know either."
Seeing that her lips were dry and she was still not in good spirits, Lu Xiangnan could only suppress his thoughts for the time being.
He nodded: "The food is ready. Eat and then take a nap. If you need me... call me again."
"good."
They regained the awkwardness they had when they first met.
Lu Xiangnan felt an overwhelming sense of loss.
But he couldn't force Jiang Tian, especially since she was still sick.
