"It's that line again. Dammit, don't think I don't know, in the hospital …"
"Zhou Li, it's my birthday today, let's not argue." Just as Zhou Li was about to say something, Chu Jiang interrupted her.
"Wen Xin, I really envy you." Zhou Li looked at Wen Xin, and the corner of his mouth revealed a bitter smile.
Reluctantly, he got up and went to the kitchen.
Zhou Li who was in the kitchen preparing to cut vegetables listened attentively to the conversation in the living room. With a slash of the knife, her finger started to bleed.
"It hurts …"
Her heart ached as she looked at the continuously flowing droplets of blood. Because of the pain, her eyebrows were tightly knitted.
"I'll do it! Your hand is hurt, so go to the cabinet under the TV in the living room and get some medicine. " Chu Jiang looked at Zhou Li and said softly.
She wanted to ask him to apply the medicine for her, but when she saw his cold face, she bit her lip and swallowed.
Watching Zhou Li walk out of the kitchen, Chu Jiang let out a soft sigh.
"Zhou Li, what's wrong with you?" Wen Xin looked at Zhou Li who was running out of the kitchen, and worried as she looked at her eyes that were filled with tears.
"Nothing, I just cut my finger." She wiped the tears off her face with her sleeve.
"Let me help you bandage it."
Wen Xin opened up the cabinet and took out a box of blood medicine.
"How do you know it's here?"
Wen Xin felt a little awkward. She had opened up this cabinet in a moment of desperation, and had even left the medicine box here.
"I knew it! "Let me apply the medicine for you." Wen Xin laughed and changed the topic.
Wen Xin carefully helped bandage her wound while saying softly, "Although Chu Jiang looks cold on the surface, his heart is actually very meticulous. He will definitely remember all that you have done for him.
's lips curled into a smile. In the past, she had always seen Wen Xin as a love rival, and had never come into contact with her before, but now that she had heard her words, she felt that she wasn't that annoying. If it wasn't for Chu Jiang, she thought that she and Wen Xin could become friends.
"He only has you in his heart, he can't tolerate her anymore." Zhou Li whispered.
"Perhaps it was because I was with him during the loneliest period of his childhood! Maybe it wasn't love at all. "
looked at Wen Xin, but did not say a word. Women sometimes loved to deceive themselves, if it was not for love, how could they use their own lives to repay each other.
"Actually you're wrong. Chu Jiang is the kind of person who looks warm on the surface but is ice-cold in his heart. His delicacy and gentleness are only for you." Zhou Li muttered to himself.
"Seabelt Soup is ready." Right at this moment, Chu Jiang walked over with a bowl of seaweed soup and placed it on the table.
"I've also prepared a new steak. I'll go to the kitchen and bring it over."
Looking at Chu Jiang's back, who was wearing an apron and returning to the kitchen, Zhou Li's lips revealed a happy smile.
His heart really wasn't cold. At the very least, after she had given so much, his attitude towards her had gradually improved.
After a while, Chu Jiang brought a steak and placed it in front of Zhou Li.
Because of the sparkling tears of joy in his eyes, under the light of the lamp, Zhou Li's clear eyes were even more captivating.
Being able to eat food personally cooked for her by someone she liked, there was an indescribable happiness in her heart.
After finishing the food, Zhou Li opened the big cake she brought.
The cake had a red heart-shaped shape, and a few Korean words were written on it with cream. "Happy Birthday, Chu Jiang."
"I made this myself. I've been learning it for a long time, it must be very beautiful!" Zhou Li looked at Chu Jiang at the side with an expression of anticipation.
Chu Jiang looked up at Zhou Li with a complicated expression. Sometimes he really couldn't understand why Zhou Li stayed by his side, he publicly annulled the engagement and made her return to Korea in anger, but now she had returned back to China, looking as if nothing had happened. More importantly, since she already knew his condition, why was she still pursuing him?
The three of them continued to eat their cake with their own thoughts. It was already close to evening, but luckily Chu Jiang had already helped her get a leave of absence.
"Let's go sing tonight!" Zhou Li said as she looked at Chu Jiang.
Chu Jiang turned and look at Wen Xin.
"You guys can just sing. I'm going home."
It wasn't because there was an urgent matter, but because she wanted to give Zhou Li and Chu Jiang a chance to be together in private.
Chu Jiang looked at Wen Xin, then turned and said softly to Zhou Li: "Alright! You will accompany me on my birthday tonight. "
Wen Xin looked at the time. The current Mu Yuntian should be completely busy!
"I'm leaving first. The two of you are having fun." Wen Xin took the backpack on the sofa and walked to the entrance and waved to the two of them.
Chu Jiang laughed and nodded his head, but only Zhou Li was able to see through his smile, it was extremely forced, and did not reach her eyes.
The door closed with a bang, and only Chu Jiang and Zhou Li were left in the room.
Chu Jiang held onto his chest as he gasped for air, his pale face turning even paler.
"Chu Jiang, are you unwell?" Zhou Li looked at Chu Jiang worriedly, at a loss of what to do.
"Go to the pocket of your suit on the clothes rack and give me a box of pills." Chu Jiang pointed to the clothes rack by the door and said.
"Alright, wait for me." Zhou Li nodded and quickly ran over.
