Chapter 459 - Dinner's Ready

Su An An looked at Yan Chu as he walked back to the kitchen to cook and she couldn't help but walk back to her room as she felt that she needed to have a moment alone. She needed a place where she could have silence and enjoy peace and quiet. She closed the door to her room after she entered, and she sat on her bed as tears rolled down. She thought about how pathetic she was because she fell in love two times only to be rejected twice.

Su An An wasn't scared about falling in love even though she was young. To her, it was exactly because she was young that she had the strength to fight for what she wanted. It was also because she was still young that she could do anything for the person that she loved without much care in the world. She didn't have to be worried about how her work would become because she had all the time in the world to learn and grow. She also didn't have to be worried about any possible exes or her mind being contaminated from being in life for too long. She was still her. Her mind was still pure and her love was pure as well. That was why she wasn't afraid to show or even confess to the person that she loved. However, that didn't mean that she wasn't hurt or she wouldn't be hurt when she was rejected.

After crying for a while, Su An An forced herself to stop her tears as she didn't want people to know that she had cried. She went to the bathroom to clean up her face and once she looked normal, she went out to the living room to get her script. She forced herself to ignore Yan Chu as she sat on the sofa and read and annotate on her script. After multiple attempts to ignore him, she finally managed to engross herself in her script and her role. 

Meanwhile, Yan Chu forced himself to concentrate on cooking once again, but he couldn't do it no matter how hard he tried. He kept looking at Su An An as he cooked and so he had noticed her going to her room mindlessly and then coming back out sometime later looking slightly off. Although she had refreshed herself, he could still tell that she had cried. His heart scrunched up when he realised that he had made her cry. He shook his head to try to get his mind back to cooking in case he set the whole apartment on fire and when he was finally done cooking, he found her looking at her script with full attention.

Yan Chu couldn't bring himself to interrupt her while she was so concentrated on her work. Hence, he kept quiet as he brought out the dishes that he had cooked and placed them on the dining table. Once he was done, he sat at the table as he waited for her to finish whatever she was doing. Once again, he looked at her with gentle eyes and smiled foolishly.

As though knowing that someone was looking at her, Su An An turned back and found Yan Chu looking at her with those gentle eyes once again. She was stunned again, but this time around, she felt even more hurt than before because he had just pushed her away and yet he was looking at her in the way that would make her heart flutter again.

Su An An actually knew that Yan Chu was done cooking the moment he brought the food out to the table. However, she wanted to keep herself busy for the moment because she didn't know how to interact with him and neither does she know what part of him she would be facing when she turned around. Nonetheless, she still turned around when she felt someone looking at her. Her curiosity got better of her and that was why she turned around.

Su An An then looked at the table of food as she avoided Yan Chu's gaze, then, as though she just realised that he was done cooking, she smiled.

"Dinner's ready?"

Yan Chu nodded his head, "Mm. Dinner's ready. You want to eat now or do you want to finish your work first?"

"Hmm… Let's eat first. It will take a long time if I were to finish my work first. The food would have gone cold by then. Besides, you have already taken care of me the entire night yesterday, so I shouldn't make you wait for me for dinner any longer," Su An An kept her things as she spoke.

"Ok. I will go get the rice then."

Yan Chu nodded as he went to scoop out some rice for both of them from the kitchen and then brought it out. He placed the bowl of rice in front of her as he sat down and they started to eat in silence. He then scooped some chicken soup into a separate bowl for her and placed it in front of her.

"Be careful. It's hot. Even though it was just a regular fever, your fever went very high yesterday and you probably lost a lot of energy from sweating, so this can help you a lot."

Su An An nodded and smiled as she thanked Yan Chu, but her tightened grip on the chopsticks seemed to indicate that she wasn't happy like she was on the surface. She looked down in her bowl for a brief moment before she continued eating, but she didn't seem to be eating at all as she had been picking at her bowl.

Yan Chu notice that and he picked up some vegetables and put it in her bowl, "You just recovered, so you have to eat more to replenish your energy. Remember to eat more salmon because it is full of omega-3 and also some pork because you need more proteins for your body to recover quickly."
