Chapter 96: This Is What You Get for Not Listening
After saying that, Su Moyu smiled at Bai Shuchuan. Seeing her eyes curve into pretty crescent shapes, his heart suddenly started beating faster.
“See? If you’re bad at it, just practice more,” Su Moyu said proudly. “Things like this should come naturally. What’s so hard about it?”
Bai Shuchuan smiled helplessly and didn’t reply. He just reached out and gently patted her head.
Su Moyu threw herself into his arms again. When she was sick, she didn’t want to do anything at all.
“Let’s go to bed early today,” Bai Shuchuan said softly.
“Okay.” After resting in his arms for a while, Su Moyu got up and went into the bathroom.
To change to a night-use sanitary pad.
But when she came out, Bai Shuchuan had already been pulled away by Li Bowen and Qiu He to play games.
Su Moyu leaned against the head of the bed and watched short videos by herself. Suddenly, she came across a food blogger’s video. In the quiet of the night, she started craving food.
Just then, Bai Shuchuan finished his game and came back in. Su Moyu immediately sat up.
“Bai Shuchuan, I’m hungry,” she said, looking at him.
He blinked.
“Then… what do you want to eat?” he asked. “We still have two packs of instant noodles at home.”
She pouted. “I don’t want instant noodles, and I still have a cold.”
Hearing that, Bai Shuchuan felt she had a point.
But… he didn’t really know how to cook.
“Then I’ll go downstairs and buy something,” he said.
She shook her head. “No need. Let’s just order delivery.”
As she spoke, she waved her phone. “Since you took such good care of me today, I’ll treat you to a meal~”
A smile appeared on Bai Shuchuan’s face.
“Then I won’t hold back.”
“I want barbecue,” Su Moyu said softly.
After saying that, she carefully looked at him. As expected, he narrowed his eyes at her.
“You’re still sick,” he reminded her kindly. “You can’t eat instant noodles, but you can eat barbecue?”
Her cheeks turned a little red. She knew she couldn’t argue strongly this time.
After all, she wasn’t really in the right.
“I just suddenly want it. I really crave it,” she said, hugging his arm. “Just let me eat a little, okay?”
But Bai Shuchuan was surprisingly firm about this.
“If you’re sick, you shouldn’t eat this kind of food,” he said seriously.
She didn’t speak. Her watery eyes stared straight at him.
“I’ll eat non-spicy ones… just some meat and vegetables…” she said pitifully, making him suddenly feel a bit guilty…
Like some evil witch in a fairy tale locking up a princess…
“Alright, but you can’t eat too much.”
Su Moyu quickly nodded, then happily leaned forward and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
“You’re the best~”
After saying that, she lowered her head and opened the food delivery app.
Bai Shuchuan could only feel that he had no way to deal with her…
He let out a soft sigh, feeling like he had been easily controlled by her again.
Just a moment ago, he had told himself not to give in. So how did she make his heart soften so quickly?
He touched his cheek and thought to himself again, being in love is really something magical.
He never imagined that one day, just because Su Moyu kissed him… he would feel so happy about it.
Humans really are strange.
He leaned over to look at Su Moyu’s phone screen. As she scrolled through the menu, she paused at the grilled oysters section.
Su Moyu gave Bai Shuchuan a meaningful look, then kindly ordered two portions for him.
“You’ve worked hard lately. This will help you recover your energy,” she said thoughtfully.
Bai Shuchuan laughed. She kept making these suggestive jokes, and he still wasn’t fully used to it.
“Thanks, I’ll keep working hard,” he replied with a teasing smile.
Su Moyu originally wanted to say something a bit more flirtatious, but when she thought about it, if she really got him excited…
She suddenly imagined the scene of him on top of her…
That night when she clearly felt his strength, his stamina, and his power.
“You better be careful,” she said seriously.
Seeing her expression, Bai Shuchuan looked confused.
“Careful about what?”
“You only have one girlfriend. Be careful not to ‘break’ me,” she muttered.
He smiled innocently. “You were the one who told me to use more strength.”
Su Moyu felt like this guy was really too straightforward.
“Shut up. No more dirty jokes,” she complained.
Bai Shuchuan quietly closed his mouth.
What a… classic case of blaming him first.
When the doorbell rang, Su Moyu, who was leaning on him, nudged him with her elbow, telling him to get the delivery.
……………………
Su Moyu squatted in front of him, her eyes shining as she looked at the food. Bai Shuchuan watched her with a gentle expression.
Her way of eating wasn’t very elegant at all. Her mouth was shiny with oil, and there was sauce at the corner of her lips.
As he wiped her mouth, he suddenly felt like he was taking care of a child.
“It really tastes better with chili,” Su Moyu said after she finished eating.
“Then wait until your cold is gone before eating it again,” Bai Shuchuan reminded her.
“I know, I know,” she replied, not annoyed at all.
She helped clean up without being told, then washed up and went to bed.
As expected, the next morning, her throat became inflamed…
Bai Shuchuan directly took the morning off and brought her to the hospital for an IV drip.
Su Moyu sat in a chair, with the IV bag hanging beside her. The nurse even thoughtfully placed a small board under her hand to keep it steady…
That’s right, she was basically being treated like a child.
She could only scroll through videos with her left hand.
But her mood was terrible.
She secretly glanced at Bai Shuchuan beside her.
Noticing her gaze, he turned to look at her.
“What’s wrong?”
She pouted. “I need to use the bathroom.”
He let out a soft sigh, helped hold up the IV stand, and took her to the restroom.
“I shouldn’t have eaten it,” Su Moyu said with regret.
This time, Bai Shuchuan really couldn’t hold back his laughter.
“Next time, remember this lesson,” he said helplessly.
She felt a bit embarrassed.
Last night, she was the one craving food and acting cute… and now she was the one being brought here by him…
“My hand feels cold,” she muttered.
Bai Shuchuan sighed, then gently covered her cold hand, the one with the IV, with his own.
“Next time, even if you act cute, it won’t work,” he said seriously.
“I know…”
