Lu Yunqi had been forced to soak in cold water for a period of time because he had taken the medicine by mistake. He directly used this as an excuse to pretend that he was sick and wanted to use this method to ease the relationship between him and Luo Ke.
Luo Ke didn't notice her thoughts at all. She carefully helped Lu Yunqi up from the bed and gently said, "Wait a moment. I've cooked some appetizing porridge for you. You'll be able to eat it soon."
Lu Yunqi didn't want to see her beloved person so busy. He grabbed Luo Ke's hand and said, "You don't have to be busy. Sit down and let's eat together."
Luo Ke nodded. "Okay, I'll go and prepare. You go and wash up first. If you have any problems, just call for me. Don't hold onto it by yourself." Ever since Luo Ke found out that Lu Yunqi was sick, she treated her like a precious animal. She carefully took care of her, so considerate that even Lu Yunqi, who was pretending to be sick, felt a little embarrassed.
"I understand. Go and busy yourself first." Lu Yunqi smiled as he spoke to Luo Ke.
Luo Ke left the bedroom and went to the kitchen to pour out the morning chicken porridge. She chopped the carrot, cucumber, and bean curd into thin threads and mixed them together to make a refreshing grass. After she served the porridge on the table, Lu Yunqi slowly walked out.
He took a deep breath and said, "It smells so good. I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good. I'm so lucky."
Luo Ke took the towel from Lu Yunqi's hand and naturally wiped the water droplets on his hair. She said somewhat embarrassedly, "These are all simple dishes. Since you're sick and can't eat anything heavy with salt and oil, I've only cooked some chicken porridge. Are you used to eating this?"
"No need to trouble yourself, hurry up and sit down to eat." Lu Yunqi pulled Luo Ke over to the table, and the gentleman moved the chair aside for her. He then took out the fragrant chicken porridge and placed it in front of Luo Ke.
After that, he also sat down and rubbed Luo Ke's head, saying, "The porridge you've cooked is really fragrant."
"If it smells good, then hurry up and eat it. What are you looking at me for?" Hearing Lu Yunqi's embarrassed gaze, Luo Ke said with a red face.
"I want you to feed me." Lu Yunqi made an excessive request.
Luo Ke didn't expect Lu Yunqi to say such words to him as if he were acting coquettishly. He felt very sweet in his heart, but shyly said, "You're so old, and you still need someone to feed you."
"What I need is no one else but you." Lu Yunqi stared fixedly at Luo Ke as he spoke, his simple words swearing an oath before him.
Beside him, Luo Ke's face immediately turned red. She lowered her head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and eat." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, preparing to push the congee towards Lu Yunqi.
However, the other person grabbed onto Luo Ke's wrist. Before she could react, he pulled her into his embrace and said, "You know I'm speaking the truth, so why can't you answer me directly?"
This was not the first time Luo Ke had been embraced by him. Lu Yunqi's warmth was transmitted to her through his thin shirt, and he could hear her powerful heartbeat. An indescribable sense of security filled Luo Ke's heart, causing her to unconsciously relax, leaning on Lu Yunqi's chest.
"I just don't know how to tell you a lot of the time." In Luo Ke's mind, Lu Yunqi was like a scorching sun, forever the most dazzling person among the crowd. He would bravely express his opinions, living as he pleased. This was what Luo Ke liked the most, but she was completely different. She was more like a star hidden behind dark clouds, obscured by the sun's rays and replaced by the moon's brilliance at night.
She was just one of the most ordinary members of all the living beings. She was used to being polite while others moved about with her. She was used to hiding her own opinions.
"Whatever you want to say, say it. No matter what you say, I'll listen carefully." Lu Yunqi gently caressed Luo Ke's back, as if he was trying to give her strength.
"I really appreciate what you've done for me. If it weren't for you, I would have given up long ago. Perhaps I could say that without your support, I wouldn't have the current Louver. After all, I'm someone who could easily give up." The girl in his arms laughed as she spoke. Only she knew how much pressure she had to endure.
"You are not an easy person to give up on. Whether it is for the music or the people you love, it is because of your unremitting persistence that you will end up like this." Lu Yunqi's deep voice rang in Luo Ke's ears, making her feel even more embarrassed.
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I just did what I should do. Many times, I've decided to give up. It was your encouragement that allowed me to persevere." As she spoke, Luo Ke gripped Lu Yunqi's shirt tightly. Then, she lifted her head and looked at her with her watery, big eyes. She seemed to be deeply moved.
Seeing this, Lu Yunqi directly grabbed Luo Ke's hand and said, "Have you ever thought of quitting your job at a very happy live broadcast and coming to work at my company?" It was rare for Luo Ke to be willing to open her heart and have a good chat with her, so Lu Yunqi directly revealed what he had been thinking ever since he came here.
However, Luo Ke didn't give him a reply for a long time. He quietly hid within Lu Yunqi's embrace, appearing to be in a difficult situation. Lu Yunqi sighed and said, "If you don't want to, then so be it. I just want you to come to my company." "You don't need to make it difficult to meet people you don't want to meet. I can also use the company's resources to support you, but no one dares to gossip." In truth, Lu Yunqi knew that Luo Ke was very soft-hearted. He would definitely not be able to bear with what he said, and might even agree with his suggestion.
Hearing Lu Yunqi's words, Luo Ke pursed her lips and hesitantly said, "I understand what you're thinking now, but the company is very good to me now. Can you let me think about it?"
Lu Yunqi knew that he couldn't force him into a corner, so he nodded and said, "I understand. You don't need to think too much into it. Do what you should and leave me behind."
"Yes, I know." Luo Ke spoke in a muffled voice from within Lu Yunqi's arms.
"Don't think too much into it. Your porridge is about to turn cold. Let's hurry up and eat." Lu Yunqi said to Luo Ke with a smile as he picked up the bowl of chicken porridge on the table.
"I wonder who was the one who purposely teased me earlier. Otherwise, I could have eaten a long time ago." Louver lowered his head and mumbled in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunqi actually heard her words and said, "You really are amazing. You've already learned to complain about me."
