Li Susu stayed in the hospital for three days before the doctor discharged her.
Three days later, her older brother came to pick her up from the hospital.
"Big brother, why was it President Fu who came that day?" Li Susu asked, voicing her doubts.
“When you called me, I was on a business trip and couldn’t make it. Xingzhou called me just then, so I asked him to help me.”
Li Chenglin answered honestly, then glanced at his sister's expression and tentatively asked, "After you're discharged from the hospital, will you invite Xingzhou to have a meal together?"
Li Susu's eyelids twitched; she didn't want to face Fu Xingzhou for the time being.
This time, however, Fu Xingzhou really helped a lot. His older brother had a good relationship with him, and there were plans for future collaborations...
There's no way to avoid it.
"good."
Li Susu decided to face this awkward situation head-on.
Unexpectedly, her older brother made an appointment with Fu Xingzhou the day after she was discharged from the hospital.
"Xingzhou said you invited him to dinner a while ago, and that you're going to cook for him yourself. Is that true?"
Li Susu's expression froze. "...Really."
She was just saying it casually at the time, but she didn't expect Fu Xingzhou to take it to heart!
Li Chenglin immediately became interested.
To be honest, he has never even tasted his sister's cooking.
This time, I benefited from Fu Xingzhou's influence.
True to her word, Li Susu had her older brother invite Fu Xingzhou, prepared a large table of dishes, and entertained him.
Li Susu was preparing the last dish of creamy shrimp in the kitchen, pondering how to face Fu Xingzhou later.
Given Fu Xingzhou's circumstances, he probably has quite a few women around him. Surely he wouldn't be angry about this for so long?
Li Susu was unsure of herself, but she was determined to be sincere when she apologized later.
Then she noticed the cream was still in the refrigerator, and without turning around, she called out, "Brother, could you get me the cream?"
Soon, the cream was brought in.
Li Susu squeezed the cream onto the cooked shrimp on the plate. There was a bit too much cream on the plate, so she took a spoon and tasted it.
"Is it tasty?"
Fu Xingzhou's voice suddenly rang out behind her, startling her so much that she dropped her spoon.
When it was halfway down, a large hand caught it deftly.
Li Susu swallowed hard.
She could feel Fu Xingzhou almost pressed against her back, and his gradually rising body temperature reminded her of that absurd day, causing her earlobes to turn pink.
Fu Xingzhou stared at her earlobes, which resembled ripe cherries, so close to his face.
His eyes darkened.
Li Susu felt the air become sticky and quickly turned around to push him away.
Little did they know that the situation would get even worse.
The two of them ended up face to face, pressed close together...
Li Susu raised her panicked eyes, wanting to say something, but was completely captivated by Fu Xingzhou's unfathomable pupils.
It was as if some surging emotion was being suppressed, making her heart skip a beat.
Fu Xingzhou lowered his gaze to the cream on the corner of her lips and leaned closer.
Li Susu's mind went blank.
"Su Su, did you just call me?"
My older brother has arrived.
Li Susu fully woke up, pushed Fu Xingzhou away, and turned around with her face flushed.
"No, it's alright now, we can eat."
Li Chenglin found it strange, "Are you not feeling well? Why does your voice sound so weak?"
Li Susu: "..."
At this moment, Fu Xingzhou let out a low laugh!
"You can all leave now, I have one last dish to serve."
Li Susu kicked the person out.
My troubled mind couldn't calm down for a long time.
What did Fu Xingzhou mean by that just now?
Li Susu brought out the last dish, creamy shrimp, sat down to eat, and occasionally glanced at Fu Xingzhou.
They noticed that Fu Xingzhou was eating calmly, as if he had already forgotten what had happened in the kitchen.
Li Susu felt a pang of unease. So, Fu Xingzhou was deliberately retaliating just now?
Perfect, then they're even.
Fu Xingzhou noticed that Li Susu's gaze had changed from avoidance to indifference, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Li Chenglin was oblivious to the subtle atmosphere between the two and continued drinking with great enthusiasm, soon showing signs of intoxication on his face.
"Brother, drink less."
