Chapter 776: Chapter 777: How Did You Know I Haven’t Eaten?
She didn’t understand why he insisted on staying by her side, so she asked him, but he gave no answer.
Perhaps it was just because of their friendship?
Indeed, if it had been Qiangwei, after learning that she was injured and no one was there to take care of her, she would definitely have stayed without a second thought. And although it always felt like she and Li Yuan were mismatched companions, Huo Yishan was very clear they were definitely good friends.
“You’re really not going back to sleep?”
Even though they were friends, Huo Yishan always felt he had been acting a bit strange these past few days.
“Didn’t I say I was going to stay with you?”
“But why do you want to stay with me?”
Facing her clear, curious eyes, Li Yuan hesitated for a long time.
“Because I’m bored.”
“…” Bored!?
Okay, she really was overthinking it!
Suddenly feeling a bit angry, though she didn’t know exactly why, she turned to her side, intending to bury herself in the covers.
However, a sudden movement made her forget about her injured foot, and in an instant, pain furrowed her brow!
But being quite strong-willed, she didn’t make a sound, just hissed inside the covers, her brow furrowed, and soon the pain eased a lot.
On the couch, Li Yuan continued his vigil, and without realizing it, he had stayed until dawn.
At the break of dawn, Huo Yishan finally fell into a groggy sleep and didn’t wake up until the sun was high in the sky.
In the hospital room, Li Yuan was already gone.
Gurgle—
Uh, she was so hungry…
Turning her head, she glanced at the time, and it was already past ten in the morning!? No wonder she was so hungry!
Huo Yishan, who typically got very hungry if she missed a meal, couldn’t help but feel some stomach pain from her hunger!
At this time, Anna should have arrived, right? Could she still be busy?
But what could she do about her hunger?
Just as she was uncomfortably holding her stomach, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.
Thinking it was Anna, she looked up, only to catch sight of Li Yuan coming in.
She paused for two seconds, “Why are—”
Before she could finish her sentence, she caught the tantalizing aroma filling the air.
So delicious…
Catching a glimpse, she indeed saw he was carrying a lot of tasty food.
He walked over, placed the breakfast on the table, and then personally adjusted her bed table before laying out all the delicious food on it.
“Eat up!”
Huo Yishan gave him a look, and being too hungry to be polite, she simply started eating on her own.
She was curious, though—how did he know she hadn’t had breakfast?
“How did you know I hadn’t eaten anything?”
“This morning Anna came by, but you were still asleep, so I didn’t let her wake you.”
“Oh.” So that’s how he knew she had slept till now?
Sitting quietly by her side, Li Yuan just watched her eat with relish, as if the breakfast was exceptionally appetizing.
Using the phrase ‘with relish’ might just be a polite way to put it—currently, Huo Yishan, starving as she was, was practically wolfing down her food!
She was aware that her manners weren’t exactly elegant when she was very hungry. Li Yuan always teased her about being a reincarnated starving ghost.
But speaking of which, today…
Munching on a dumpling, Huo Yishan suddenly looked up—he hadn’t commented on her eating habits at all today?
Something was off, this was very odd indeed.
She couldn’t stand this weird feeling!
“Li Sao!”
Li Yuan looked up at her.
Huo Yishan suddenly realized she had misspoken, “No, Li Yuan, what’s going on with you? Are you in a bad mood or something on your mind?”
