Chapter 1145: Chapter 1145

“Feed me.” Ren demanded. Ruka placed the bowl of porridge on the table beside and asked somewhat bashfully, “Did you injure your hand?”

He replied, “No, but | want you to feed me.” His eyebrows slightly raised, as though he was implying that he would not eat unless she fed him. Left without any other choice, she abided by his wishes as she felt it was fine feeding a patient. Next, she pulled a chair closer to the bed and took the bowl of porridge. “Alright. I'll feed you, so sit closer to me.”

With one hand on the edge of the bed as support, Ren scooted and leaned closer to her to make things easier for Ruka.

As the porridge was still somewhat hot, Ruka took a spoonful of porridge and blew on it before she fed the man. Content with the treatment, Ren ate with. a smile so wide that his one-sided dimple appeared. “Is it too hot?” she asked.

“It's fine,” he answered with his eyes locked on Ruka’s face. With how close she was to him that he could smell her fragrance from her, it felt as though she was secretly leading him into temptation.

However, Ruka only concentrated on feeding the man. Only when she was halfway through the bowl of porridge did she realize that Ren had been staring at her. Blushing inadvertently, she said, “Don’t just stare at me.”

Smiling, Ren asked, “Where else should | stare if not you?”

“Anywhere else but me,” Ruka answered while feeding the man another spoonful of porridge. When she noticed the bowl of porridge was close to empty, she felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment...

Just then, a knock came from the door. Before Ruka could react, Elijah entered intending to give the important documents in his hand to Ren. However, when he noticed Ruka feeding the dignified vice president, he was baffled for a moment before he quickly turned his back on them and went out the door. On his way out, he turned his head to the two and said, “Please, continue.”

With Ruka’s face as red as a tomato right now, she roughly placed the bowl of porridge in Ren’s hands and said, “Eat it yourself.

I'm done feeding you.” Then, she turned her back on him, stewing in embarrassment.

Looking at Ruka’s bright red face, Ren stifled his laugh and said, “Everyone around me knows about me liking you, so there’s nothing for you to be ashamed of Ruka blinked and stared at the man. “Why do they know?”

“Some things don’t need to be said. They have eyes themselves after all,” Ren answered. Then, he finished the last spoonful of porridge elegantly.

As the man was done with his meal, Ruka proactively went and cleaned up the bowl for him. Just then, her phone rang.

Realizing that it was Caspian who had called her, she felt a tug at her heartstrings. She then said to Ren, “I’m going out to take a call.”

As the man’s insight was keen, Ren could guess who the caller was with a glance. In an unpleasant tone, he asked, ‘Is it from the boy who confessed to you today?” Ruka nodded, albeit with a guilty conscience. “Yeah. | don’t know what he wants, so I'll have to answer the call,” she answered while she was on the way out of the room..

“Answer the call here,” Ren ordered sternly. He wanted to know just what that boy was planning with this phone call at such a time.

Left without any other choice, Ruka went near the windows and answered the call. “Hello.”

“Hey, Ruka. It’s me. Have you had dinner yet?”
