Seeing Pei Yan, Ye Xiaofan hurriedly asked, "Captain, is Sister Qiao Qiao feeling better?"
Although Ye Xiaofan didn't know Qiao Ran's specific situation, he knew it must be quite serious to have Pei Yan carry him back like this.
"I'm much better now." Pei Yan said, greeting Sun Kai and conveying Qiao Ran's birthday wishes to him.
"Qiao Ran won't be coming down to eat with us for dinner. She said she didn't prepare anything in advance. So I can only wish you a happy birthday first."
"Oh... Xiao Ran, you're so polite." Sun Kai was the protagonist today and asked everyone to sit down. "Since everyone is here, come and sit down."
After a while, Qiao Ran, who was leaning on the bed watching Chou Chou's live broadcast, heard laughter coming from downstairs, and the not-so-tidy version of the Happy Birthday song.
Qiao Ran, who hadn't celebrated his birthday since something happened at home, couldn't help but hum along to the familiar tune.
Counting the days, her birthday is still a few months away. I wonder how her autumn season will go by then...
Soon, Qiao Ran's thoughts were attracted by the aroma of hot pot. His stomach didn't hurt as much anymore, but he was still very greedy.
If you think about it, she hasn't had hotpot for a long time.
The last time I had hotpot, I bought a self-heating pot in the supermarket, which was not a real hotpot.
Qiao Ran couldn't resist such temptation, so he put on his slippers, stood in front of the dressing mirror and checked himself. After making sure that nothing was stuck on his pants, he opened the door and went downstairs.
"Eh? Xiao Qiao is here!" Zhao Jie was facing the stairs and saw Qiao Ran at a glance, "Xiao Qiao, come over and have something to eat with us. You'll feel better after eating a little."
Zhao Jie didn't understand what was going on with Qiao Ran, and thought he was just tired from the strenuous training.
Since you're tired, what can't a good meal solve? If that's not possible, then take a nap and then eat again!
"I'll go get another chair." Jiang Wenzhou immediately put down his chopsticks and pulled a chair over for Qiao Ran.
Qiao Ran walked over and sat down. The fatty beef and lamb boiling in the spicy pot instantly increased her appetite.
She prepared some sauce and was about to put her chopsticks into the spicy hot pot.
"Didn't you say you didn't want to order takeout? Where did the hot pot come from?" Qiao Ran asked curiously.
"Auntie had prepared a lot of dishes in the refrigerator, and I happened to have the base ingredients I bought earlier, so I thought it would be convenient to have hot pot." Sun Kai explained.
"Qiao Ran, don't eat the spicy hot pot, eat the clear soup pot instead." Hang Ying reminded from the side.
Qiao Ran took a look at the clear soup hotpot and didn't want to move his chopsticks away.
Hot pot without spiciness is simply soulless!
Pei Yan, who was standing nearby, could tell that Qiao Ran loved spicy food.
However, can girls not even eat spicy food at this time?
Pei Yan didn't know much about this, but Hang Ying was also a girl, so if she said it couldn't be eaten, she shouldn't be wrong...
Qiao Ran watched helplessly as Pei Yan took away her dipping bowl filled with hot sauce, and replaced it with an empty bowl that was cleaner than her pocket.
"Wait for me to serve it to you?" Pei Yan looked at Qiao Ran facing the clear soup pot, reluctant to pick up his chopsticks.
He didn't understand that that was Qiao Ran's last stubbornness as a hot pot party!
Although I am stubborn, the meat is so delicious!
Qiao Ran couldn't resist the temptation. He said sorry to the spicy pot in his heart, turned around and scooped the fatty beef in the clear soup pot into his own bowl.
The weather hasn't turned cold yet, and the hot pot is steaming hot. Even though the air conditioner is on indoors, everyone is still sweating.
Qiao Ran, who was so drunk on the food, had completely forgotten about her period pain and reached out to take the ice cola beside her.
This time, Pei Yan knew that this was not something Qiao Ran could drink without Hang Ying reminding him.
"Do you want to pass out from the pain and have everyone call an ambulance to take you to the hospital?" Pei Yan reminded Qiao Ran before he could bite him.
"I'll just take a small sip, it should be fine..." Qiao Ran looked at the steaming Coke and found it hard to put it down.
"Going to the hospital is only known to those in the team, so it's not too embarrassing." Pei Yan replied in Qiao Ran's tone.
Qiao Ran glanced at the people who were chatting and laughing. No one noticed her inner struggle at the moment.
Well, Pei Yan wins!
She resigned herself to her fate and put down the Coke with a bitter face.
Pei Yan felt a little sorry for her when he saw her like this, so he stood up and went to the side, took out a box of cocoa milk at room temperature, poured it into a cup, heated it up, and placed it in front of Qiao Ran.
"Just make do with this. You don't eat spicy food anyway, so you don't need something so cold."
Qiao Ran looked at the steaming hot cocoa in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Hang Ying, who was standing by, had been paying attention to Pei Yan and Qiao Ran, so she saw every move and expression between them.
She nudged her boyfriend with her arm: "Akai, look..."
Sun Kai was not surprised: "What's the big deal? Xiao Ran is a girl. It's normal for the captain to take more care of her. Don't say anything when you get out."
"I'm that kind of person..." Hang Ying rolled her eyes at Sun Kai, "I don't believe you really can't see it at all."
Of course Sun Kai could see it. Not only him, but Zhao Jie, Jiang Wenzhou and others also felt the same way to some extent.
Pei Yan's treatment of Qiao Ran is really abnormal!
Although they usually take good care of Qiao Ran, the feeling is completely different.
But the parties involved have not made any statement on this matter, and Qiao Ran is now facing a lot of criticism from the outside world, so they naturally can't say too much.
"A handsome man and a beautiful woman, so pleasing to the eyes~" Hang Ying sighed lightly and decided to find an opportunity to test Qiao Ran's attitude.
After eating hot pot, Sun Kai took Ye Xiaofan to go live broadcast, and Zhao Jie was rare and diligent to stay and help Jiang Wenzhou and others clean up.
Originally, Qiao Ran, who had recovered, wanted to stay and help, but Pei Yan ordered him to go back and rest.
Hang Ying saw this as an opportunity and volunteered, "I'll go up with Qiao Ran. Don't worry, Master Pei, I'll keep a good eye on her."
"With you chatting with her? Are you sure she can rest well?"
"Why? We girls understand girls." Hang Ying took Qiao Ran's arm and said, "Qiao Ran, don't you think so? If Pei Shen feels that I'm not a good companion, how about you come? And tell him a bedtime story or something?"
Pei Yan didn't react to Hang Ying's "provocation", but just snorted coldly.
On the contrary, Qiao Ran's face suddenly turned red because of Hang Ying's words.
He quickly pulled at the corner of Hang Ying's clothes, signaling her to stop talking.
——
Go back to the room and close the door.
Qiao Ran pulled back a corner of the quilt, sat back on the bed, and patted the edge of the bed: "Come and sit down. I have some unwashed clothes piled on the chair, it's a bit messy."
Hang Ying sat over with a smile. Only then did she have time to take a closer look at the furnishings in Qiao Ran's room.
"Strange? You don't have any skincare products?"
Hang Ying looked around but didn't see anything. The dressing table next to Qiao Ran's bed was empty, with only a pack of tissues placed there.
"Ah? There are facial cleansers and facial masks in the bathroom..."
Qiao Ran thought about it, pointed in the direction of the bathroom, and suddenly remembered that the facial mask seemed to be the one Pei Yan gave her last time, so she said that it was originally bought by Sun Kai for Hang Ying.
"So you don't take care of your skin normally?" Hang Ying looked at Qiao Ran's delicate face with an amazing expression.
Qiao Ran nodded: "Just use facial cleanser when washing your face."
In fact, sometimes Qiao Ran would skip using facial cleanser when he was half asleep.
"Wow! You're really wasting this beautiful face!" Hang Ying couldn't understand why she didn't take good care of it. "No, I'll bring you some lotion or something next time I come."
"No... no, I'm really not used to using these. It's too troublesome and time-consuming. I'd rather spend that time on getting two more stars." Qiao Ran was afraid that Hang Ying would drag her into discussing her troublesome skincare issues again, so she quickly found an excuse. "Don't you want to get points? Let me help you get points. What's your rank?"
"No, no, I won't play today." Hang Ying shook her head and refused. "If Pei Shen finds out that I didn't let you rest and dragged you along to help me gain points, I don't know what he'll say to me. I'll just chat with you for a while, and it'll be almost time before I have to go back."
"Ah..." Qiao Ran glanced out the window. It was already completely dark. "Aren't you going to stay? There should be extra rooms in the base."
"It's late at night, so I won't bother you guys with cleaning up. Besides, you only have today to rest, and you have to resume training tomorrow. There's nothing for me to do if I stay. Besides, I have a class tomorrow and will take roll call. If I get caught, I'll lose credits."
"Is college life interesting?" Qiao Ran felt regretful when he thought about the fact that he had not been able to experience college campus life in person.
"That's it. It depends on the person. Some people find it very interesting, their schedules are fully packed, and they can gain a lot. Others stay in the dorm from morning till night, and university is just a bed for them."
Hang Ying noticed that Qiao Ran was in a bad mood and immediately changed the subject: "Can I ask you something?"
The author has something to say:
Wow! The hot pot smells so good! I want to eat hot pot myself after writing this! [Bajizui.jpg]
