Chapter 374 Breakup, It's a Dream
When Jiang Xing left, he never thought he would ever return to Lou Qi's house.
Looking at the room, almost exactly the same as when she left, even the fresh-cut bouquet on the table was the same manta roses she bought the day she left, she felt a moment of disorientation, wondering if their breakup and her departure were all a dream.
He...is deliberately keeping this appearance...
When Lou Qi returned, Jiang Xing was sitting on the small bar counter on the balcony writing something.
Her handwriting is beautiful; it's a graceful yet elegant running script.
Hearing Lou Qi's voice, Jiang Xing didn't rush to look up until he finished writing the last word. Lou Qi, in his wheelchair, was already beside Jiang Xing: "What are you writing?"
Jiang Xing handed the document he had just finished writing to Assistant Gao and said, "These are the precautions. Please have the maid in charge of taking care of you take a look."
"Aren't you going to take care of me?" Lou Qi almost wanted to stand up.
Jiang Xing looked at him with suspicion, and asked seriously, "Didn't you say that taking care of people isn't my responsibility?"
Lou Qi's words became a boomerang that pierced his own heart.
He doesn't need Jiang Xing to do any work or take care of him personally.
But that doesn't mean we don't need her!
Lou Qi ground his back teeth and met Jiang Xing's ambiguous smile. He understood—Jiang Xing clearly knew what he meant, but deliberately didn't let him have his way!
The doorbell rang suddenly, rescuing Gao Zhu from his awkward and helpless situation.
"I've ordered dinner for you two. I'll go open the door."
Five minutes later, a delicious-looking four-dish meal with soup was served. Each dish was a small portion, a standard serving for two people. The food was light and nutritious, clearly catering to the patient's tastes.
"Ms. Jiang, I need to rush back to the company to retrieve some important work documents for Mr. Lou. The servants haven't arrived yet, so I'd appreciate it if you could watch over Mr. Lou's meal. Thank you!"
After finishing his sentence, Gao Zhu slipped away as fast as he could, afraid that Jiang Xing might have a chance to call him back.
Jiang Xing was forced to stay and stare at Lou Qi.
Two seconds later, she composed herself, calmly pulled out the dining table and chairs, and added half a bowl of matsutake and cordyceps chicken soup to Lou Qi's bowl.
He said to Lou Qi, "Drink the soup first."
Lou Qi sat down, glanced at the bandage still on his right hand, and then looked at Jiang Xing.
Jiang Xing added half a bowl of soup to his bowl, then glanced at Lou Qi with a somewhat intriguing expression.
Lou Qi, who had originally planned to find an excuse to have Jiang Xing feed him, suddenly remembered: Jiang Xing had seen him skillfully use his left hand to hold a spoon and drink porridge in the ward that day!
unwise!
Lou Qi, feeling depressed and silent, began to eat with his left hand.
"You're being discharged from the hospital today. Did anyone pick you up?" Jiang Xing suddenly asked. "Besides Assistant Gao."
Lou Qi was injured because of himself, so Jiang Xing took the day off. However, Lou Qi said he didn't need her to pick him up from the hospital and told her to come directly to his house.
It's obvious they don't want her to be in the hospital.
“My parents,” Lou Qi added, “There’s no one else.”
The last five words seemed to be a clarification, as if afraid she might misunderstand something.
Jiang Xing nodded nonchalantly, but inwardly he was relieved for Lou Qi.
His injuries were quite severe, and his parents didn't show up after he was hospitalized. Even if he's not close to his family, he must have been upset. His parents coming to pick him up should have made him at least a little happy.
Lou Shao, who had just argued with his parents, had no idea what Dr. Jiang was thinking. Seeing that Jiang Xing was not speaking, he put down his spoon and asked, "Is there anything you want to ask?"
"what?"
She had no questions, but Lou Qi did.
Why didn't you tell me when my mom bullied you before?
