Shen Xi took the instant noodles and filled it with water. She turned on the pot and moved a stool to the side to wait for the water to boil.
Li Yuen stood behind her and looked down slightly. He watched her every move with a happy expression. No matter what she did, he always felt that it was pleasing to the eye. The smile on his face grew wider and wider.
"Go and sit down." Shen Xi tugged at the corner of his shirt and pointed to the sofa behind her.
His legs had just recovered, so he had to do this and that. His legs needed time to recover. He couldn't be in such a hurry to walk when they were just healed.
"I'm fine." Li Yuen smiled and looked at her. He bent his finger and gently brushed the tip of her nose. "Your water is boiling."
Right now, he just wanted to stand a little longer. It had been a long time since he felt this way. He used to think that this was the end of his life and that he could only sit in a wheelchair until he died. He didn't expect that he would have the chance to stand up again.
Shen Xi turned her head and saw that the water was really boiling. She quickly opened the instant noodles, took out the dough, and put it into the boiling water. Her ability to cook instant noodles was getting better and better.
Someone knocked on the door. Li Yuen saw that the young lady was about to get up and pressed her shoulder down. "I'll ask Kunlun to send some eggs and vegetables over. I'll open the door."
Shen Xi didn't fight to open the door. She just held her chin and stared blankly at the man's long legs. As she stared, her eyes reddened and she grinned foolishly.
Her brother's legs were finally healed. She could finally put down the huge rock in her heart. She was always afraid that her medical skills weren't good enough and that she couldn't cure his legs.
Honestly speaking, she made the medicine half a month ago. Honestly speaking, she wasn't 100% confident. Wasn't she afraid of failure? She could try again and again. She could try again and again.
But she was afraid that her brother would be disappointed. Every time he was disappointed, it would be a huge blow to him. The last thing she wanted to see was him in pain.
Li Yuen took the things and turned around. He saw the young lady's eyes redden again. His heart tightened. He walked over and slowly. He squatted in front of her with some difficulty and gently covered her eyes with his slender fingers. He said gently, "Boil an egg and put it on."
His young lady? Had she always been the strongest? Only when he blew up the kitchen? He had seen her cry, but today? She did it for him? How many times had she cried? His heart ached when he saw that.
"I'm fine? I'm not seeing anyone. "Shen Xi sniffled. She timidly reached out her hand and placed it on his leg. His eyes were as gentle as water, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. His voice was very low. With a pleasant surprise that only belonged to this moment, she said, "Brother, that's great."
His leg healed? How nice!
Li Yuen couldn't hold it in any longer. He gently pulled her into his arms and patted her back with his big hand. His warm lips were by her ear as he whispered, "Don't cry anymore."
When he saw her cry, he knew that she was happy for him, but his heart still ached.
Shen Xi nodded and felt her eyes heat up again. He didn't know that since the first day she came back, she had been waiting for him to stand up. Since then, every day, every minute, every second, she had been praying for him to recover quickly. No one knew how much she wanted him to recover.
Li Yuen's heart was swollen, and the tip of his heart was also numb. He felt a little choked up in his throat. He kissed her ear gently and told her, "I know."
His young lady, his Little Sun, had spent a lot of effort for him, found many people, and did everything for him. He knew all about it.
The smell of instant noodles quickly filled the entire room.
Shen Xi smelled the smell and came out of his arms. She anxiously ordered, "Hurry up and give me the egg and wash the vegetables."
Li Yuen watched the young lady clumsily beat the egg. She accidentally knocked a small piece of the egg shell into the pot. She then hurriedly picked up the spoon and chopsticks to scoop up the egg shell. She didn't stop talking. "Brother, hurry up and wash the vegetables."
"I got the vegetables from the hotel's kitchen and washed them clean." Li Yuen took out the vegetables from the container. Seeing that the young lady still couldn't scoop out the egg shell, he smiled and said, "You can scoop it out when you eat later."
Shen Xi pursed her lips in embarrassment. "I can scoop it out."
Then, she continued to scoop up the egg shell seriously.
Li Yuen walked behind her dotingly and circled his arms around her from behind. He held her hand, accurately pinched the egg shell that was stuck to the egg, and scooped it out.
The egg had already taken shape. He beat two poached eggs.
Shen Xi could clearly feel the man's chest close to her. His heartbeat sounded in her ears. His heart beat rhythmically on her back. She couldn't help but swallow, and her breathing became a little rapid.
After Li Yuen scooped out the egg shell, he let go of her hand. Then, he put the vegetables into the pot and stirred them with his chopsticks. After a while, he turned off the fire.
He scooped out a bowl of instant noodles, took two pairs of chopsticks, and a spoon.
Li Yuen handed the young lady a pair of chopsticks and sat down opposite her.
Shen Xi didn't take it. She stared at the noodles and said, "I'm not hungry. I said I would treat you to a big meal."
Of course, Li Yuen knew what she was thinking. He smiled and said, "If you're not hungry, eat with me."
Shen Xi reluctantly took the chopsticks and began to eat.
In the end, she almost finished the entire bowl of noodles. Li Yuen only ate two egg yolks, some vegetables, and two mouthfuls of noodles.
Shen Xi didn't eat egg yolks. She thought they were choking. She didn't like to eat egg yolks and only ate egg whites.
After finishing the big meal, Li Yuen washed the pots and bowls. It was already 12: 30 in the middle of the night by the time he took a shower. It was snowing heavily outside. He glanced at the young lady's door, walked over, and knocked. He said gently, "Good night."
There was no sound from inside, but the lights were still on.
Li Yuen smiled and turned into his room. He turned on the lights and saw a small bump on the quilt. It was moving slightly. If he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't have noticed it.
He thought she had obediently gone to sleep. He didn't expect her to come over to warm his bed.
He walked to the bedside, gently pulled the corner of the quilt, and said softly, "Sleep well."
Shen Xi suddenly lifted the quilt and hurriedly covered it. Two big, watery eyes were revealed. She blinked and looked at him. "You're not going to chase me away?"
Li Yuen couldn't help but laugh. "Will you leave if I chase you away?"
Even if he chased her away, she would still come back. She looked so pitiful. How could he bear to let her suffer? He could only suffer a little. As a normal man, with the person he loved sleeping next to him, only God knew how torturous it was for him.
Shen Xi shook her head and muttered, "I won't."
She wouldn't leave, especially on such a happy day. She wanted to have two happy events today. What's done can't be undone. She wanted to take care of him directly!
Li Yuen took a pillow and placed it in the middle. He then went to the cupboard and took a quilt. He wrapped her properly and rolled to the side before putting his own quilt in place.
