Ming Liuyi kept hiccuping. Yao Zizhou was speechless. Was he really that scary? A single sentence could scare Ming Liuyi to this extent? Or did Ming Liuyi simply want to kill him? Otherwise, why would she be afraid?
Ming Liuyi looked at Yao Zizhou’s face and said while hiccuping, “Hic, I say, hic, I didn’t, hic, want to harm you. Do you believe me? Hic.”
Yao Zizhou felt Ming Liuyi’s change, and everything that had happened before appeared in his mind. Ming Liuyi’s ferocious face when she pushed him down and the insults she had said all made it impossible for Yao Zizhou to judge. But with Ming Liuyi being so good to him nowadays, Yao Zizhou could not be sure.
After a moment of silence, he said,”Can I trust you?”

Ming Liuyi let out a soft sigh. Yao Zizhou’s words were not in response to her words. Instead, he pressed her step by step and asked her questions in return. Fortunately, Ming Liuyi was not Yao Zizhou’s enemy on the negotiation table, otherwise, she would have been forced into a corner by Yao Zizhou without even knowing. If Yao Zizhou could see her now, he would definitely see the incomparably clear look in her eyes, as though she could see through his heart.
Ming Liuyi did not have any intention to harm anyone, so she spoke very frankly, “Absolutely, hic.”
Yao Zizhou felt Ming Liuyi’s honesty and also believed in her. No one else would take care of him like this. These days, although he could not speak, every time Ming Liuyi cleaned his body, he could feel the sincerity of her words. Yao Zizhou was not a wishy-washy person. If you doubt someone, do not use them. If you use someone, do not doubt them.

“Alright, I’ll believe you from now on.”
Ming Liuyi smiled widely when she heard Yao Zizhou’s words, but the hiccuping did not go away at all. This hiccuping was caused by Yao Zizhou, and, of course, could only be rid of using the same methods. Yao Zizhou knew that he had to scare her again, so he said with a smile, “Next, let’s talk about how we should settle the matter of you taking advantage of me.”
Ming Liuyi did not expect Yao Zizhou to say such words and was immediately dumbstruck. ‘T-this… When did I take advantage of Yao Zizhou?! It was all because Yao Zizhou couldn’t move, so I helped him clean his body and checked out his abs, chest muscles… and other parts of his body.’

Yao Zizhou heard Ming Liuyi stop hiccuping and said mildly, “Alright, let’s eat.”
Ming Liuyi immediately let out a breath of relief. Luckily Yao Zizhou did not keep asking questions, and she also realized that she did not hiccup anymore. So, Yao Zizhou was not questioning her at all, but helping her? Thinking of this, Ming Liuyi’s lips curved into a smile. She took the thermal container and sat by the bed. When she opened the container, the smell of chicken soup came out. Ming Liuyi smelled it and immediately knew that this was the cooking of chef Zhang Quan.
Ming Liuyi happily said, “Yao Zizhou, smell this chicken soup! This aroma, this has to be Zhang Quan’s German-style specialty, it’s too fragrant.”
Hearing this, Yao Zizhou also sniffed the chicken soup. It was indeed very fragrant. He felt so hungry that he could not help but swallow his saliva. Ming Liuyi turned around to pick up the spoon and added some spiritual spring water into the soup. Then, she ladled a spoonful and carefully blew on it. When she felt that the temperature was right, she brought it to Yao Zizhou’s mouth.
Yao Zizhou may have been in a coma before, but when he was awake and being fed like this, he was not used to it. He could only drink the soup stiffly. When he was in a vegetative state, although sometimes he was conscious, the food he ate was tasteless. Today’s chicken soup hit his taste buds and awakened his tongue in an instant.
After the chicken soup entered his stomach, Yao Zizhou let out a sigh of relief. It was better to be awake, knowing what was good and what was bad. Ming Liuyi was waiting for Yao Zizhou’s reaction. After all, with Yao Zizhou being awake, there were many some issues where she needed his opinion on. Yao Zizhou looked at Ming Liuyi and said indifferently, “Next time, don’t blow until it gets so cold.”
Ming Liuyi was speechless. He was so troublesome when awake. She was only worried that he would burn his tongue. Otherwise, she would not have blown on his food so carefully. Now, he even dared to dislike it. As expected, he was cuter and more obedient when he was in a vegetative state. He was a hundred times better than when he was conscious!
