They heard a sound at the door.
Old Mr. Lu was somewhat surprised: “Nan Nan, you’re here? To see Ah Yan?”
Old Mr. Lu’s attitude was something Jiang Nanshu hadn’t expected.
She had hurt his grandson so badly; everyone should have seen it on the surveillance footage.
Even if she wasn’t the one who ultimately administered the drug, it still left her with evidence against her.
She stood at the door and smiled gently at Old Mr. Lu: “Hello, Grandpa Lu.”
Lu Qingyan then turned to look at her.
Jiang Nanshu was wearing a red down jacket over a white turtleneck sweater. Her slightly wavy black hair was held up by a headband. She had a smile on her bright and fair face, and her almond-shaped eyes were sparkling and beautiful.
Old Mr. Lu was in a good mood when he saw Jiang Nanshu: “You’ve come to see this brat, haven’t you? What are you doing here? Anyway, the engagement is off, so don’t worry about whether he lives or dies.”
Jiang Nanshu suddenly felt a little awkward and coughed lightly: “We did have a relationship, after all. Even if a deal falls through, we should still be on good terms.”
[Ding! The male lead’s disgust value is 10%.]
Jiang Nanshu: “?”
“You’ve already broken off the engagement, so this lingering connection isn’t good for your reputation. Once you find a good fiancé, you should send me a wedding invitation.”
Jiang Nanshu replied perfunctorily: “Okay.”
[Ding! The male lead’s disgust value increased by 50%.]
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
Old Mr. Lu looked at Lu Qingyan: “It’s all been investigated. The one who drugged him was that woman named Su Ran. She instigated Ciqiu to join in. I’ve already kicked them all out. It has nothing to do with you, Nan Nan.”
Jiang Nanshu pursed her red lips, her expression somewhat apologetic: “I’m also at fault. I bear half the responsibility for him becoming like this. Grandpa Lu, I want to say a few words to him.”
Old Mr. Lu immediately understood: “Alright, alright, you young people can chat. This old man won’t disturb you any longer.”
The ward was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard.
The two people, who used to be inseparable and talk about everything, were now so estranged that neither was willing to take the initiative to speak.
Jiang Nanshu coughed lightly: “Have you had breakfast? I brought you some porridge.”
Lu Qingyan turned his head to look out the window and didn’t answer.
Jiang Nanshu placed the porridge container on the table.
“How about the fruit? Want some? I bought cherries. They’re quite sweet.”
Lu Qingyan remained silent.
Jiang Nanshu inwardly cursed: What a mess! She’d turned such a morally upright and gentle male lead into this state.
If she’d known this mission had so many twists and turns, she wouldn’t have taken this step.
She washed some cherries and placed them on the cabinet next to him: “Want some?”
“Take them further away.”
Jiang Nanshu: “Okay.”
Lu Qingyan: “…”
She picked them up and ate them one by one.
[The male lead’s disgust value: 60%.]
Jiang Nanshu sat in her chair, pretending not to hear.
“By the way, how about the porridge? Do you want some?” Jiang Nanshu asked.
Her gaze was sincere, as if she would drink it all for him if he refused.
Was this a visit to see him or an attempt to infuriate him?
Lu Qingyan sneered, “If I say I won’t drink, are you going to eat everything that was given to me?”
Jiang Nanshu smiled awkwardly, “Wasting food is bad.”
Lu Qingyan’s thin lips tightened: “Drink.”
Jiang Nanshu immediately served him the porridge: “It’s best to eat it while it’s hot. It won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
Lu Qingyan wasn’t actually hungry, but he didn’t want Jiang Nanshu sitting alone by his bedside and eating with relish.
He took a bite—just ordinary white porridge from the breakfast shop near the hospital, without even sugar added!
[The male lead’s disgust value: 65%]
Jiang Nanshu: “???”
Why?
Was she being given food he disliked?
Jiang Nanshu looked at his wrist: “Why hasn’t your wound healed after half a month? How dare you go drinking with an injury like this?”
