Ye Zhi probed her head closer to the thermos cup, finding that there was an entire chicken inside. The soup gleamed in a slightly yellow crystal hue and the surface of the soup was a little oily. At a glance, she could tell that it had been boiled for a long time.
Ye Zhi lowered her head and her long hair fell down, almost touching the edge of the thermos.
Gu Ren frowned slightly before he took out a hairband from Ye Zhi’s bag. He gathered all of her long locks in the palm of his hand and wanted to tie it up.
Gu Ren’s movements were extremely careful as he acted like he was dealing with a fragile item. Due to the fact that he had never done such a thing before, Gu Ren awkwardly twisted her hair with the hairband and somehow managed to tie it up.
Ye Zhi let him do what he wanted to and didn’t try to help him. Instead, she just teased Gu Ren casually with a smile on her face.When Ye Zhi’s long hair was tied up loosely and draped behind her head, Gu Ren slowly let out a sigh of relief.
Both the Gu family and the Sheng family brought Ye Zhi some chicken soup, but he just picked one at random. He first put the chicken legs and some soup into a small bowl. Then, Ye Zhi wanted to take the pair of chopsticks to eat the food by herself, but Gu Ren took his hand back, avoiding her initiative.
“I’ll feed you.”
Ye Zhi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the fact that Gu Ren completely regarded her as a patient. Perhaps he was worried that she would eat less on purpose, which was why he made the first move to feed her.
Ye Zhi knew that Gu Ren was frightened by her sudden fainting and that made him particularly worried about her. She went along with Gu Ren’s intentions and obediently placed her hands behind her back.
Gu Ren sat on the edge of the bed. He lowered his head slightly and held the dark chopsticks with his cold, porcelain-like fingers as he slowly scooped the chicken out of the thermos.Every move of his was very pleasing to the eye.
Gu Ren first scooped a spoonful of chicken soup and fed it to Ye Zhi. After she swallowed it, he fed the well-cooked chicken to her again.
The chicken soup was boiled for a long time, which made the soup rich. The shreds of the chicken just melted in Ye Zhi’s mouth as the fresh and the savoury taste immediately warmed her stomach.
Ye Zhi smiled contentedly. If Gu Ren had fed her like this before, she might not have such a stubborn resistance to stick to the dietary meals.
Ye Zhi glanced at Gu Ren, who was concentrating on making sure the chicken was perfect for her with his head tilted downwards. She sighed with emotion at the sight of the beautiful man.
Gu Ren fed Ye Zhi an entire bowl of chicken soup before he stopped. If it hadn’t been for the fact that she had been on a diet for so long that it required her to take time to get back to a healthy appetite, he might have forced her to eat even more.
Gu Ren only wished for Ye Zhi to be healthy because he didn’t want to see her sick again.
Throughout the entire meal, Ye Zhi didn’t touch anything; it was entirely handled by Gu Ren.
Gu Ren sorted out the things on the table and walked to the bedside again. He leaned down slightly and carefully helped Ye Zhi wipe the corners of her mouth.
