Chapter 848: Taking the Initiative for the First Time

His deep and hoarse voice sounded weak, but Shi Nuannuan heard it clearly. She snapped back to her senses. “What?” Then she nodded her head vigorously. “Yes, Brother Shenghao said you haven’t had dinner!”
“I’m really hungry,” said he as he looked at her.
Shi Nuannuan couldn’t help but be stunned.
He didn’t seem to dislike her…
She took the dinner in her hands and placed it in front of him.
“I bought a lot of food. What do you want to eat?”
The awkwardness and guilt that she had been feeling for the past few days seemed to have completely dissolved the moment Xiangyi spoke. Shi Nuannuan’s face was filled with joy.
Looking at her exquisite face, Xiangyi’s lips revealed a very shallow and imperceptible curve. His eyes let out a tenderness that was even harder to discern.
He looked at the food in front of him.
He picked one from the pile. “Congee.”
“Okay!”
Shi Nuannuan smiled and opened the pack of congee. She prepared a spoon and placed it in front of him. Then, she raised the position of the head of his bed a little higher.
“It’s ready!”
She looked at him, but Xiangyi did not move. His black eyes were fixed on her.
She was a little confused. She looked at the congee. Could it be that there was something wrong with it?
“Feed me.”
Shi Nuannuan just stared at Xiangyi. For a moment, she thought she had misheard.
Suddenly, Zhong Shenghao’s exhortation rang in her ears.
Xiangyi was not able to move much yet, so he did need someone to feed him.
But, did she mishear? Xiangyi actually took the initiative to ask her to feed him!
She looked at him again and saw that he was still staring at her.
She picked up the congee, scooped a spoonful, and brought it to his mouth.
Xiangyi opened his mouth, chomped on the spoon and swallowed the congee down his throat. His pair of eyes as dark as ink remained fixed on her.
Shi Nuannuan was so distracted and her heart was beating too fast!
What was going on?
Not only did Xiangyi not despise her, but he even asked her to feed him? Wasn’t this truly the first time he took the initiative to her?
Did he accept her confession?
Otherwise, why would he let her feed him and have such an intimate interaction?
When she met his dark eyes again, Shi Nuannuan felt an electric current pass through her body, making her blush.
Gosh, what was she blushing for? Wasn’t she always thick-skinned? Did she blush from such a tiny interaction?
Thinking of this, her expression turned serious as she focused on feeding him the congee in her hand. She was no longer blushing like an apple just because of this little bit of intimacy.
After all, there were still a lot of embarrassing things awaiting her…
“What are you laughing at?”
Xiangyi couldn’t help but ask as he noticed her snickering to herself.
Shi Nuannuan paused and the smile on her face froze. She said, “What? No, I’m not laughing!”
Xiangyi stared at her but didn’t continue to prod her.
After finishing the bowl of congee, she asked again, “What else do you want to eat?”
He looked at the food. “I don’t want to eat anymore.”
He had just woken up and wasn’t too hungry. Besides, Zhong Shenghao had told him to try to eat some light congee for the time being.
“Have you eaten?”
Shi Nuannuan nodded as she packed her things. “Yes, I came here after dinner!”
After tidying up the remaining food, she walked out of the ward.
“What are you doing?”
Nuannuan turned around and glanced at Xiangyi, then at the food in her hands. “To throw the rest of the food away.”
“There’s no need. Just leave them somewhere in here.”
Shi Nuannuan didn’t understand.
