CHAPTER 176: CHAPTER 176: MAKING TROUBLE

Jiang Zhixun didn’t move, just faced Shen Qingqing with a bewildered expression.

As if he didn’t know what to do next.

Madam Jiang awkwardly looked away.

This kid is quite good at pretending. Yesterday he clearly didn’t need anyone to feed him, and he ate just fine by himself.

Now that Qingqing is here, he’s starting to act up.

Afraid she couldn’t resist exposing the truth and also worried about the youngsters feeling awkward.

Madam Jiang said, "The old man is home alone, not sure if he’s eaten or not. Qingqing, you stay with Zhixun, I’ll go check on him."

The old man has heart problems, leaving him home alone always makes her feel uneasy.

Shen Qingqing understood the elder’s intentions.

They just want her and Jiang Zhixun to develop feelings, right?

If she doesn’t agree, no one can force her.

Nothing to dwell on, said to Madam Jiang, "Did you stay up all night? Get some sleep before coming back, otherwise you might not be able to handle taking care of Brother Zhixun."

Her son lost his sight, Madam Jiang worried all day.

Actually couldn’t sleep last night.

Still wasn’t completely relieved.

Left Shen Qingqing meal tickets and money, "If you’re hungry, go to the cafeteria to buy food. If Zhixun doesn’t listen, call home."

"Mom..."

Jiang Zhixun looked embarrassed.

He’s already in his thirties, can’t she give him some face?

"Alright, alright, I’m not talking about you."

Madam Jiang pulled his quilt, "Listen to Qingqing, don’t bully her."

Jiang Zhixun awkwardly said, "How dare I?"

Madam Jiang thought, he says he wouldn’t dare, but he’s actually the best at irritating Qingqing!

"This kid is just like that, emotions come in waves. If he says something wrong, does something wrong, Qingqing, forgive him a little."

Shen Qingqing nodded, squinting at Jiang Zhixun, "He’s a patient, I won’t rough him up."

Madam Jiang was speechless with a smile.

Qingqing is the most gentle and caring, it’s only because Zhixun is so out of line that she’d get mad.

Now she’s even using the word ’rough up’.

If the current situation wasn’t inappropriate, Madam Jiang would really laugh out loud.

Jokingly said, "If he doesn’t behave, you just take care of him."

With everything settled, Madam Jiang left without having breakfast, looking back every few steps.

Thinking about buying some things to nourish the body, cooking them in different ways for her son.

Nutritional support leads to faster recovery.

Shen Qingqing stood by the hospital bed and started listing off the dishes, "There’s steamed bun, eggs, and vegetable porridge, what do you want to eat?"

The relationship suddenly changed, not as distant as before, Shen Qingqing felt a bit uncomfortable.

The expression on her face was awkward, fortunately, Jiang Zhixun couldn’t see, otherwise she’d feel even more embarrassed.

Jiang Zhixun didn’t think much.

"Porridge."

Once he said that, Shen Qingqing had already put the spoon into his hand.

This meant, he was to eat by himself...

Jiang Zhixun: "I can’t see."

Shen Qingqing: "Your hand works fine."

Jiang Zhixun huffed, digging forward with the spoon, perfectly avoiding the lunchbox Shen Qingqing was holding, and scooped air.

The man’s expression grew increasingly aggrieved, "Are you satisfied now?"

Shen Qingqing thought this person was inexplicably odd.

But looking at his expression, she felt a bit sorry for him.

Again she reminded herself, this is a patient, don’t compare herself to him.

Grabbed Jiang Zhixun’s left hand, put the lunchbox in his hand, let him hold it himself.

If he still couldn’t find the direction, it only proved he was pretending. Then she had no need to humor him.

"Eat!"

Jiang Zhixun wanted Shen Qingqing to feed him, which is why he deliberately asked for vegetable porridge.

He didn’t expect that even like this, Qingqing wouldn’t consider feeding him.

Jiang Zhixun lowered his eyes, holding the lunchbox with one hand, spoon in the other, successfully delivering vegetable porridge to his mouth.

After all, since he couldn’t see, Shen Qingqing couldn’t be completely assured, her eyes closely watched him.

If something unexpected happened, she could swiftly intervene.

As she stared, she noticed Jiang Zhixun had thick eyelashes and they were very long.

Maybe it was because she hadn’t paid attention, or maybe she knew few male acquaintances, it was her first time seeing, a guy’s eyelashes looked so nice.

When he lowered his eyes, they completely shielded the emotions within.

He knew Shen Qingqing was watching him, but he couldn’t see her expression, so Jiang Zhixun felt unsure.

With this uncertainty, he wanted to act up.

Only by making Qingqing speak could he determine her current mood.

After eating just a few spoonfuls of porridge, he handed the lunchbox to the side, "No strength in my hands, let me rest for a bit and eat later."

He looked calm, Shen Qingqing observed him several times, and couldn’t immediately tell whether he was genuinely uncomfortable or pretending.

Handed him a steamed bun, "Then eat something else."

Jiang Zhixun: "..."

What to eat wasn’t important, he wanted Qingqing to feed him!

Raised his face towards the direction of the voice source, "Is your work very busy? Actually, I can be alone in the hospital, like you said, my hands and feet are fine, just my eyes can’t see. Eating in the dark, walking... it’s not impossible, if you’re busy, you should attend to important matters first, don’t waste time feeding me."

He said it considerately, Shen Qingqing would have felt guilty if she didn’t know his nature.

Snorted, "I didn’t intend to feed you anyway."

Grabbed Jiang Zhixun’s hand and stuffed the steamed bun into it.

"Eat!"

Plan failed again, Jiang Zhixun was utterly frustrated.

Zhou Jie gave him advice, telling him to act pitiful and sympathetic.

Why did this trick not work on Qingqing?

Bitterly took a bite of the steamed bun, it felt like venting.

Still very childish.

Shen Qingqing’s lips curled up, she said this person was pretending, turns out it wasn’t false!

While Jiang Zhixun was eating the bun, Shen Qingqing sat by the bed, peeling hard-boiled eggs for him.

The sound of her cracking eggs clearly reached Jiang Zhixun’s ears.

He could even imagine her every move, and the expression on her face.

Suddenly, all his frustration vanished.

What he wanted was Qingqing by his side, not her serving him.

What he wanted he already achieved, he shouldn’t mess around, ruining the atmosphere at the moment.

Compared to the year of the divorce, the current situation was much better.

If he had been blind four years ago, Qingqing might have visited him, but definitely wouldn’t have stayed to care for him!

The situation now was already very good.

The more he thought, the more relaxed Jiang Zhixun felt.

His brows relaxed accordingly, slowly eating the steamed bun in his hand, quite elegantly, it strangely suited his aloof demeanor.

Jiang Zhixun didn’t speak, Shen Qingqing didn’t proactively say anything either.

Just quietly handed the egg over when he finished the bun.

Remembering he couldn’t see, like before, first grabbing the man’s wrist to prevent him from moving around, then placing the shelled egg in his hand.

Jiang Zhixun’s attention was all on his wrist.

The fingertips of the hand holding his were a bit cool, the finger pads very soft, felt like an electric current suddenly ran through his heart.

His whole heart became tingly and numb.

Jiang Zhixun suddenly asked, "Is it going to snow?"

Shen Qingqing didn’t understand why he suddenly asked this, casually replied, "Probably soon."
