Song Zhou was standing beside the cabinet, his school uniform jacket was placed outside. He rolled up his sleeves and was wearing an apron that felt incompatible with him. âIt will take a while for the porridge to be ready, you can go upstairs and rest for the meantime.â
Xi Ning was about to shake his head, Song Zhou couldnât help but say, âGo rest now, Iâll call you when it is done.â
The expression on Song Zhouâs face was too natural. Xi Ning even felt that he was the guest here for a momentâ¦â¦ He nodded subconsciously. âOkay.â
Xi Ning went back to the room and did some English practice tests while waiting. After the meal was ready, Song Zhou didnât call Xi Ning over but brought the meal directly to the room.
Song Zhou found a few bowls on his own. He put a few vegetables in the bowls and the porridge in another. He brought them together so that Xi Ning could eat them in the room.
Xi Ning was so hungry that he soon finished a big bowl of pumpkin porridge and ate a lot of vegetables.
âThere are still some vegetables left, they are all in the refrigerator.â
Since there is still food stuffed in his mouth, Xi Ning could only nod his head and mutter twice âHmmâ. Song Zhou approached Xi Ning and patted his back gently. âEat slowly.â
He took out his phone to glance at the time, then got up and said goodbye. âItâs getting late, you have a good rest after eating.â
Xi Ning quickly said, âI will have the driver see you off!â
Song Zhou did not refuse. After Xi Ning finished calling the driver, Song Zhou picked up the spoon in the bowl and took a mouthful of porridge, and fed it to Xi Ning. âWill you come to class tomorrow?â
Xi Ning opened his mouth to eat it without feeling anything wrong. âYes, I will.â
âWhat do you want to eat tomorrow morning?â
Xi Ningâs eyes were sparkling like stars. He was still embarrassed to ask for anything directly and asked carefully. âReally? But will it trouble you too much?â
Song Zhou put down the spoon and lowered his eyes. âDidnât I tell you? I will bring you breakfast in the future.â
Xi Ning was speechless for a long time until the driver called. He hurriedly picked up the call. âYou already arrived? Ah okay⦠I will come down right away.â
He stood up but was stopped by Song Zhou again. âI just go down by myself.â
Xi Ning responded while holding the phone in his hand and lowering his head. Song Zhou suddenly bent over slightly, he stared at Xi Ning from his eyes to the tip of his chin, and he whispered, âWhy does your face turn red again?â
Xi Ning held his breath and took a step back, but Song Zhou had already stood up straight and left the room as if nothing happened.
Xi Ning listened to Song Zhouâs footsteps that went downstairs. He sat back on the chair and continued to eat porridge. The system that had been quiet all this time suddenly appeared. âUmmâ¦..Master, are you twoâ¦..â
Something was wrong.
The system had been frequently muted by Xi Ning these days, causing it to be afraid to speak up. It was afraid to make Xi Ning angry again, but now it couldnât help it.
The system had observed Song Zhou the entire day. Song Zhou bought breakfast for Xi Ning and sent him to the infirmary. Needless to say, Xi Ning had already gone home, but he still skipped class just to cook for Xi Ning? He said that he came because of a request from the teacher, but the system didnât believe that at all.
The system didnât care if Song Zhou cooked for Xi Ning, but his attitude was strange.
The system had a bunch of things that it wanted to say but it didnât dare to speak up. But it was also afraid that Xi Ning hadnât noticed it.
Xi Ning lowered his head and took a sip of porridge without answering the system. Only after finishing the last bit of porridge in the bowl did the heat on his face gradually dissipate.
