Duanmu Que walked to my side. He put the lunch box on the cabinet and a bunch of fruits in the cabinet. Then he sat down next to me. He looked at me with a calm expression, but I could see that his eyes were bloodshot. He probably didn't sleep well either. He reached out and covered me with the blanket. Then he looked at me and said, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
"I just woke up and saw that Han Hao called me a lot and sent me a lot of messages. I sent him a message, but he didn't reply. I guessed he was asleep, so I didn't disturb him. Then I saw a shadow at the door. I thought it was a bad guy, but I didn't expect it to be you." I sheathed the knife in my hand and gave him an awkward smile.
"I just went to his house. I heard that he's going to marry you after you leave the hospital. I went to his house and saw Han Shu. I heard from Han Shu that in order to prepare for your wedding, he went home and packed his luggage. Then he left for another city. It seems like he's going to personally pick out the things he needs to prepare for your wedding. He's also very attentive to you. In order to protect you, he's been working very hard. That's why he didn't come to accompany you tonight. I know that Suri and the others still have a lot of things to deal with, so I quietly came over." Duanmu Que looked at me and told me everything that had happened.
"Thank you. I'm fine. I'm going to go back to sleep. When he's done, he can accompany me again, right? You've also been busy for a long time, so you should rest well. " I smiled at Duanmu Que. I didn't know when it started, but the relationship between the two of us had become very awkward.
At this moment, my stomach growled. I felt even more embarrassed. Duanmu Que looked at me and laughed. He looked at me and said, "You must be hungry after sleeping for so long. I made some shark fin porridge. It shouldn't be cold yet. Hurry up and eat it." Then, Duanmu Que took the lunchbox and opened the lid. A burst of shark fin porridge aroma assailed my nose. My stomach growled even louder. He took a spoon and stirred it evenly. Then, he scooped a spoonful and gently blew on it. He held it in front of me. I glanced at him and drank the porridge. It tasted good. It seemed that Duanmu Que had put a lot of effort into making it.
Duanmu Que looked at me and fed me spoonful by spoonful. Soon, I finished the porridge. After eating, I felt very satisfied. I patted my bulging belly and looked at Duanmu Que with a silly smile. Duanmu Que looked at me and smiled. He reached out to stroke my hair and looked at me lovingly. His gaze seemed to bring me back to the good times when I was with him.
My face was a little red. I turned my head and didn't dare to look at Duanmu Que again. Duanmu Que took out an apple from the cabinet and peeled it. He whispered to me, "Xiao Li, I know you came to the hospital in a hurry, so I specially brought you something to eat. There are snacks you like, fruits, and some bread. If you're really hungry, eat some. If it's not enough, tell me and I'll buy more."
"Mm, okay, I know. Actually, you don't have to go through so much trouble. I'm only suffering from external injuries. I won't stay in the hospital for long. I'll be fine once I'm discharged." I always felt that while chatting with Duanmu Que, he was advancing while I was retreating. I had a feeling of being oppressed. It was as if Duanmu Que could eat me up at any moment.
Duanmu Que looked at me. He must have realized that I was avoiding the topic. He sighed and then said softly, "Okay, you're full. You should rest early. Don't worry, I'll be right by your side. I won't leave you tonight. You're a patient, so you should rest well." I lay on the bed. Duanmu Que covered me with a blanket. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
But I couldn't sleep at all. I didn't know if it was because I was conflicted to be with Duanmu Que, or because it was too awkward. Or maybe it was because I'd slept for an entire afternoon, but I couldn't sleep at all. I just closed my eyes. My mind was in a mess. I could hear Duanmu Que sighing as he sat beside me. After a while, Duanmu Que said softly, "Xiao Li, I'm sorry. I never knew that you were so important to me. As for Wang Le 'er, I had no choice. Everyone in the city probably knows about what happened to the Kurosawa. Wang Le' er's father threatened me to marry Wang Le 'er in the name of helping my father. He said that if I didn't marry Wang Le' er, he wouldn't invest in the Kurosawa. My father couldn't withstand the pressure and agreed. I don't have any feelings for that woman. You know, my parents' health isn't good. I was afraid that something bad would happen to them, so I endured the humiliation and agreed. I'm sorry, Xiao Li, do you know? My feelings for you have never changed. I really don't want to leave you. I really want to stay by your side and protect you, but I'm not qualified. I'm not qualified to protect you. All I can do is help you when you need it. Compared to me, Han Hao is more suitable for you. Seeing how he cares for you so much, seeing how much he cares for you, I'm envious from the bottom of my heart, but I'm also jealous. But no matter what, I want you to be happy. He can give you happiness, so I'm satisfied. "
I only listened to Duanmu Que's words. I pretended to be asleep and didn't dare to answer him. Answer him what? Answer him if I still have feelings for him in my heart? It would be a lie to say that I didn't love him, but in this situation, it was best to wish each other happiness. At this moment, Duanmu Que continued, "But I'm already very satisfied now. I didn't expect you to be pregnant. Now that I've calmed down and thought about it, when you were pregnant, I was so violent towards you. How difficult it must have been for you to keep this child. I'm really an animal. I didn't even consider your feelings. Xiao Li, I'm really sorry, but seeing Yiyi being so obedient and sensible under your tutelage, I feel very gratified. If she lived with me, it wouldn't be like this. Don't worry, when you and Han Hao get married, I won't take Yiyi away from you. I know that Yiyi likes Han Hao. Perhaps in her eyes, Han Hao is the image of a father in her heart. I don't want to break them apart either. Seeing the two of you happy together, I'm already satisfied. Xiao Li, no matter what, as long as you're happy, that's enough."
Listening to Duanmu Que's tone of voice, I could feel his helplessness. He was indeed facing a lot of difficulties now. I didn't know why, but when I heard him say that, I suddenly felt that he was very pitiful. I wanted to care for him, wanted to give him some comfort, but what kind of identity should I face him with?
