Chapter 685: That Was Not the Answer She Had Expected
Then he picked up a white porcelain spoon and put it into the porridge bowl. Then he took out a pair of chopsticks and put them on the dinner plate.
After he finished all this yesterday, he took off the apron around his waist.
Ning Meng hurried forward and took the blue apron. She turned around and hung it on a hook at the side.
He picked up the dinner plate and walked out of the kitchen.
When he came to the bedroom door, he pushed it open with one hand and walked in.
He glanced at the bedroom and finally found the girl’s figure on the balcony.
He put the tray on the table and walked to the balcony.
The man was wearing cotton slippers and walking on the wooden floor, making muffled footsteps.
Qin Shu heard it. She saw him walking over from the corner of her eyes. She had just averted her gaze when she was embraced by the man. “I’ve prepared supper. Eat some first and then rest.”
The man’s voice was very magnetic, and it would make one’s heart tremble and heat up.
He did not have to prepare supper during dinner, but he did. He nestled in his arms, and the tip of his nose could still smell the smell of oil smoke. It was very faint.
She nodded. “Okay.”
She followed the man to the table and sat down. She looked at the two plates of home-cooked dishes and a bowl of steaming millet porridge in front of her.
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes and spicy and sour shredded potatoes were very common dishes. They would only appear in ordinary families or restaurants.
In a five-star hotel, they would not appear on the tables of wealthy families.
For example, Fu Tingyu, who was born in a top-tier wealthy family, had probably never even heard of these two dishes, let alone seen them before.
It was also enough to show that the man had put in a lot of effort in order to increase her appetite.
The man saw that she did not eat for a long time. “Do you not like it?”
“No.” Qin Shu quickly shook her head. She picked up some shredded potatoes with her chopsticks and put them into her mouth to chew. It was sour and spicy. For her, who did not have much appetite, it was very appetizing.
In addition, she did not eat much in the evening and was already hungry. There were dishes that suited her taste, and they were made by the man himself. Naturally, she ate more.
The man sat at the side and stared at her until he saw the bottom of the bowl of porridge. He asked, “Are you still eating?”
Qin Shu shook her head. “I’m already full.”
When the man heard that, he stood up and started to clean up the dishes. “Then you should take a shower and rest first.”
Qin Shu looked at the man’s pair of beautiful hands cleaning up the dishes. When she realized that he was about to leave, she suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist.
The man stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her in confusion. “What’s the matter?”
“… I, I have something to ask you.” Qin Shu looked at the man. The hand that was grabbing her wrist involuntarily tightened due to her nervousness.
The man also felt that something was wrong with the girl. He glanced at the hand that was tightly grabbing his wrist, Bai Jing’s hand. He then looked up at her. “What do you want to ask me?”
Qin Shu stared at the man, but when she saw her reflection in his dark eyes, she was a little hesitant.
Seeing the girl’s hesitation, the man said, “You can ask me directly.”
If she didn’t ask, this matter would be rooted in her heart.
If she asked, she would know that it was just a coincidence, and her doubts would be solved.
Qin Shu gritted her teeth. “Before you met me, you met my mother, right?”
He probably didn’t expect her to ask this question, so when he heard it, he was stunned.
But he couldn’t help but guess the meaning behind her question?
Did she remember something?
“Is this important?” He asked in a low voice.
She said, “It’s important.”
The man pursed his lips tightly. Seeing her nervous look, he had a bad feeling.
Was she going to remember the past?
He suddenly remembered what Hua Wuyan had said. If she remembered what happened on the mountain, she would definitely leave him.
At that time, he did not think so because it was not the time yet.
Now, he could not help but be afraid.
The man’s sudden silence made her nervous. “You just have to say, yes or no?”
The man looked at the girl. After a moment of silence, he said one word, “Yes.”
Qin Shu continued to ask in disbelief, “This is a coincidence, right?”
The man looked at the girl again. He did not know why she would ask this, but he still shook his head. “No.”
Hearing this, Qin Shu’s face turned pale. The hand that was holding his wrist suddenly loosened, as if it had lost its strength.
Sensing that the girl was not right, the man put down the plate in his hand and grabbed her thin shoulders with both hands. He asked nervously, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
The girl stared at the man with a pale face. Suddenly, her head started to hurt like it was being pricked by needles.
She covered her head with both hands and moaned in pain.
Seeing the girl’s pained expression, the man revealed a panicked expression. He pulled the girl back into his arms. “What’s wrong? Tell me what’s wrong quickly.”
As soon as he said it, he realized that she was trembling badly.
“… My head, my head hurts.” Qin Shu moaned in pain.
“I’ll get Gu Yan to take a look at you.” The man held the girl in one hand and quickly took out his phone to call Gu Yan’s number with the other hand.
As soon as the call was connected, Gu Yan’s gentle voice came through. “What’s wrong? Did Qin Shu lose her appetite again?”
“She suddenly has a terrible headache. Come over and take a look at her.”
Fu Tingyu hurriedly hung up the phone, and the phone was mercilessly thrown onto the sofa at the side.
He bent down and carried the girl horizontally, walking to the bedside.
Gu Yan knew that the situation was serious when he heard that. He quickly put on his coat and instructed Ji Fei to bring the medical kit and drive to Sheng Yuan.
Fu Tingyu walked to the bedside and laid the girl flat on the bed. He pulled up the quilt at the side and covered her.
“Let me massage you first. Gu Yan will be here soon.” The man’s fair fingers pressed on the girl’s temple with a moderate amount of force.
He didn’t know if it was too painful, but it caused Qin Shu to gradually lose consciousness.
But before she lost consciousness, she kept opening her mouth and saying something.
The man didn’t hear it clearly and tried to ask, “Bao’er, what did you say?”
The girl continued to speak with her mouth open, her voice extremely soft.
If it was the old Fu Tingyu, he would definitely be able to hear it clearly. However, with his martial arts skills gone, his hearing was no different from an ordinary person’s.
The man, who was already nervous, became even more nervous and worried when he could not hear. He leaned over and pressed his ear against the girl’s. Then, he heard the girl say, “He won’t… He won’t…”
Only then did the man understand what the girl was saying. However, he did not know what the girl meant when she said this?
Before Gu Yan came, waiting made the man anxious and uneasy, but he did not dare to take even half a step away. He could only hold the girl tightly in his arms.
At that moment, the person in his arms had already fallen unconscious.
The man looked up at the door from time to time and could not help but curse Gu Yan in his heart, “Why isn’t he here yet?”
Just as the man was getting impatient from waiting, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.
Gu Yan was the first to walk in. His steps were very big, and he was only two steps away from walking.
Because he knew Fu Tingyu too well, as long as it was related to Qin Shu, he would definitely be anxious and angry.
When he walked in, he saw Fu Tingyu holding Qin Shu and sitting at the head of the bed. His face was livid, and it was obvious that he was extremely impatient.
