In the ward, Zheng Ziming needed rest. Xia Ning was not planning to leave. After all, he was not awake yet, so she had to guard him outside.
After about half an hour, Qiao Yu came back. This time, he had a big bag of food as well as a blanket in his hand.
“It’s a bit cold in the hospital. Wear this.” Qiao Yu handed the blanket to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning hesitated for a second and finally took it. It was so cold that she already got goosebumps on her arm.
Qiao Yu sat next to Xia Ning, took out a hot milk tea from the bag and handed it to her.
“Why are you back?” Xia Ning asked, not taking the milk tea.
Qiao Yu darted a look at her. “You haven’t had anything today. Have some milk tea first to warm your stomach. I bought you a dumpling and corn pancake. It’s too late and there aren’t a lot of options outside. Just take these and I’ll buy some good food for you tomorrow.”
Xia Ning: “…”
Seeing Xia Ning not taking the milk tea, Qiao Yu pushed the milk tea to Xia Ning and took out a pancake and passed it to her. “Do you want to eat it yourself or do you want me to feed you?”
Seeing Qiao Yu’s cold face, Xia Ning’s body shook a little. Somehow, she thought of some creatures called the overbearing CEO. What happened just now was exactly like what would show up in a romance fiction involving a CEO.
However, she really wronged Qiao Yu. He actually was afraid that she would turn him down. If she hated him so much, compared to being fed by him, she would definitely choose to eat it herself.
“I can do it myself.” Xia Ning took the pancake and was too lazy to fight him. She had owed him already today. It was just weird like this between her and Qiao Yu. She wanted to cut off the relationship but somehow it got more and more complicated.
Qiao Yu saw Xia Ning stopped eating the pancake and asked, “What is it?”
“Did your good friend teach you to do this?” Xia Ning asked suddenly.
Qiao Yu was caught by surprise. He suddenly remembered the call last time and his expression turned a little awkward. But he still answered, “No.”
Realizing his explanation was too short, Qiao Yu continued, “I’m sorry about what happened before. I didn’t realize I made you so unhappy. Now that I think back on it, I myself feel that the old me was extremely stupid.”
Xia Ning looked at Qiao Yu in confusion. It was definitely something the old him would have said.
Also, he seemed to be talking more and more these days. If it was before, he would at most nod. Sometimes, he would not even have any expression on his face or do any gestures, and he would just leave.
“After I did all the stupid things on the set after listening to Mu Zichen,” Qiao Yu continued, “I did everything that I wanted to do afterward. If anything displeases you, you can let me know.”
Xia Ning shook her head. “I’m not displeased.” What reason did she have to blame him?
“Actually, I understand why you don’t want to accept me,” Qiao Yu pressed his lips a little and continued. “Why would you like such an imperfect person like me?”
Perfect, what was perfect? Xia Ning looked at the milk tea and pancake in her hand and felt a bit speechless.
In fact, falling for Qiao Yu was something that she did not expect at all. Because he had nothing in common with the old her. They were not even the same kind of people. But that heartbeat at that moment was magical.
“Since when did you start to talk so much?” Xia Ning asked suddenly.
Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning. “I don’t know. When I see you, I want to talk more.” He was just afraid that one day, she would be gone again and he would never have the chance again.
