Why Are You Looking at Me Like That?

"Isn't it delicious?!"2

Huo Jinyan nodded.

Lu Ning immediately broke into a smile. After feeding him, she picked a different piece of food up to feed him.

"This is delicious! And so is this!"

Huo Jinyan's gaze gradually softened as he looked at her all animated.

The first time he laid eyes on her, she was the Young Mistress of the Lù family. Elegant, proper, and a little distant, she always had the most standard smile on her face; a smile like the one she had now would never have appeared before.

Lu Ning looked up and was startled when she saw Huo Jinyan peering at her. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Huo Jinyan did not say anything, but his gaze fell on the food in her hand. "Is that good too?"

Lu Ning nodded and brought it to him.

After Huo Jinyan took a bite, she stuffed the rest into his hand and stood up.

"Teacher Huo, take your time with the food. I'll leave first."

Huo Jinyan was stunned when he heard her call him Teacher Huo.

"Where are you going?"

"To the racecourse. See you."

With that, she turned around and promptly left.

Huo Jinyan sat on the bed in a daze for a moment before coming back to his senses.

Chu Ting came in with two buns in his hands.

"President Huo, are you full? If you aren't, I'll get you a couple more more."

Huo Jinyan looked at him as he was about to leave. "There's no need. Let's pack up and go."

Chu Ting was stunned for a moment before turning around. "Hm? Are we leaving right now?"

Huo Jinyan looked at him. "… Do you want to stay here?"

Chu Ting quickly shook his head. "No, that's not it. But won't it be better for us to leave after you've recovered?"

Huo Jinyan peered downwards. "I'm fine. Go quickly."

Chu Ting nodded and hurried out. As he ate, he passed down some instructions to Gu Chen. Then, he asked Sixth Brother for a bag and packed a lot of food before returning.

When he returned, Huo Jinyan had already changed.

Gu Chen brought some medicine and handed it to Chu Ting. "Have him take this medicine twice a day. Don't let his wound get wet. Call me if there's any problem…"

Then, he turned to look at Huo Jinyan. "Otherwise, you can look for me at the infirmary every day."

Huo Jinyan nodded at Gu Chen. "Thank you."

Gu Zi came in from outside and said coldly, "If you really want to show your appreciation, then stay away from Ning'ning."

The few of them stared at him in silence.

"What're you looking at?"

Gu Zi had turned around to take a piece of clothing; when he turned back and saw everyone staring at him, he could not help but say that angrily.

"Twelfth! Hurry up!"

Lu Ning called him from the courtyard. Only then did Gu Zi turn around and leave; his tone abruptly changed when he replied to Lu Ning, "Coming~"

"…"

…

Gu Zi sent Lu Ning to the main road, and Lu Ning had him go back.

When she got home, Lu Jingzhi was already up.

When he spotted Lu Ning, he immediately ran over. "Sister!"

Lu Ning smiled and rubbed his soft and chubby face.

Lu Qing peeked out from the kitchen, his head a mess of hair. "Have you eaten?"

Lu Ning pulled Lu Jingzhi to the dining table. "I've eaten. Don't make breakfast, I brought some."

Lu Qing had just began heating a pot of water. Hearing this, he poured out the hot water, turned off the fire, and walked out.

Lu Ning had already placed the food on the table.

Lu Jingzhi was floored. "Sister, there's so much food."

Lu Ning nodded. "Try some, it's delicious. I'll go change my clothes."

She turned around and went back to her room. Lu Jingzhi and Lu Qing looked at each other, picked up their chopsticks, and started eating.

After a bite, the two of them looked at each other again.

"…"

"…"

It was a waste of time to talk. Seeing that his big brother was eating so quickly, Lu Jingzhi immediately placed two of the foodstuffs in front of him, afraid that Lu Qing would eat them all and not leave any.
