Chapter 148 Her Doubts
She put the chopsticks into Han Zhibai's hand, picked up the almost dried porridge, looked at him and asked, "Can you eat it by yourself?"
"Yes." He took the bowl of porridge, "Qingyue, have you eaten?"
"The food at home is in the utility room to the left of the kitchen and the main hall. If you want to eat something, I'll go find it. We have bacon, dried meat, rice and flour, chicken, duck, fish, pork and mutton as well!"
Han Zhibai looked at her expectantly, as if whatever she said she wanted to eat, he would immediately find it, prepare it and bring it to her.
He told her everything as if he was spending all his own money, as if he was afraid that she didn't know. This action surprised Xia Qingyue a little.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Don't worry about me, there is enough food for us."
"Eat it while it's hot. I'll go get some food and eat it together. Oh, and I cooked some of your chicken and duck eggs for Heihei and Xiaobai."
Han Zhibai said: "Cook more for them. If there is enough porridge, give them a bowl each!"
"Okay." She turned and went to the kitchen.
Watching her graceful figure leave, Han Zhibai lowered his head to look at the porridge in his hand, the fragrant smell from the bedside table, the steaming dishes, and his smiling eyes slowly emitting tiny pieces of light, just like the warm sun in winter.
He looked around his home. It looked exactly the same as before, but he felt a long-lost beauty.
The weather outside was not very good, the sky was gloomy, and the house was a little dim, but wherever he looked, he saw the room was full of sunshine, warm and bright.
Xia Qingyue made porridge and eggs for the two little ones. After that, she held the bowl with vegetables in it and used chopsticks to see how Han Zhibai was eating.
What she saw was the food that was still intact, and her eyes slowly widened.
Han Zhibai lowered his head guiltily, his voice soft: "I want to wait for you to eat together."
Xia Qingyue blinked.
After knowing each other for so long, this seems to be the first time I see such a weak side of him, like a little lamb that anyone can pet.
Soon, she thought of a possibility that it might be caused by illness or discomfort.
Facts have proved that no matter how powerful a person is, he will become weak when he is sick and unwell.
Thinking about this, she felt even more guilty. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been hurt.
She said softly, "Eat it."
Han Zhibai leaned against the head of the bed and ate.
Xia Qingyue ate while sitting on a low stool in the room.
The two little ones were eating at the door of the room, and each dog had a big bowl.
While eating, it was so quiet that the only sound was the sound of the dishes and chopsticks colliding. Xia Qingyue quietly raised her eyes to observe Han Zhibai.
He ate elegantly, finishing one bite at a time before taking the next one, and his eating manners were quite pleasant.
Noticing that she was looking at him, he pursed his lips and smiled, "Qingyue, you should eat more. Thank you for cooking such a delicious meal for me."
"Okay, you're welcome." She was caught and hurriedly lowered her head to eat.
After a while, she looked up at Han Zhibai again, with confusion in her eyes.
It's really strange. Han Zhibai was a little surprised at first about my sudden arrival, but his emotions have been quite stable since then. It seems that he is in a good mood. I haven't seen the corners of his mouth droop a few times.
Well, this could also be her illusion, she may have seen it wrong.
If the situation was the same, she would definitely not be so calm and composed, even if the other party broke into her home with good intentions.
If it were her, she would definitely be shocked and horrified at first, then gradually feel lucky that she is not dead and was saved, and feel grateful to the savior. Finally, and most importantly, she would worry that the other person is a potential danger and may expose her secrets at any time.
This series of emotions was complicated, however, she did not feel any of them with Han Zhibai.
After a while, Xia Qingyue noticed that Han Zhibai had almost finished his bowl of porridge, so she stood up and walked over to him, "Would you like another bowl?"
He looked at her with clear eyes and nodded.
This quiet and well-behaved look was just like Heihei was acting coquettishly towards her and wanted to go hunting.
She glanced at Han Zhibai, took the bowl, went to the kitchen and added a new bowl of porridge. There were some vegetables in the pot, so she scooped them all up.
Han Zhibai finished the second bowl of porridge she brought with some vegetables.
He had an appetite for food, which meant that he was recovering well. She was a little worried and asked Han Zhibai if he still felt hot.
"It's not hot anymore." He said, touching his hand.
How can you be sure of this?
Worried, she walked forward and raised her hand to touch his forehead, carefully feeling the warmth of her palm, but she didn't know that his whole body was frozen and his breathing had stopped.
"Well, it's not hot anymore, that's great, the fever is gone!" She smiled happily.
"Hey, wait a minute. I'll get two basins of warm water. You can wipe yourself and change into clean clothes."
After she got some lukewarm water, she left the room and closed the door.
Xiaobai stood outside the door without moving, guarding his master silently.
Inside the house, Han Zhibai wet a handkerchief, wrung it dry, and wiped his face, hands, and body. He was sweating, and wiping would make him feel refreshed.
Outside, Xia Qingyue stood under the eaves, and Heihei lay at her feet.
The sky was rolling with thick dark clouds that were about to press down on the top of the mountain. They were in large pieces and looked like balls of thick ink.
The sky darkened, just like evening.
The strong wind blew her clothes and pants, and she quickly closed her eyes for fear that sand would blow into her eyes.
slam-la-
The heavy rain came down on her head, and within seconds, a few drops of rain were on her face.
"Heihei, come in quickly." She shouted as she ran to the main room.
The change in weather may have made Heihei feel the unknown danger, and he ran into the main room like lightning.
The smell of rain-soaked soil mixed with a faint smell of grass immediately spread.
The smell was intoxicating and she took two deep puffs.
Boom——
boom--
Lightning flashed like silver snakes, deafening the ears, illuminating the sky and earth as bright as day, even the mountains and forests in the distance were clearly illuminated.
Crackling, the raindrops hit the tiles, making a startling sound, and drops of water flowed towards the eaves. As the rainfall increased, the water turned into lines of streams, like a rain curtain.
Under the dark clouds, heavy rain seemed to pour down from the sky. The rain gathered into thin streams and flowed to the ground. Raindrops fell on it, creating endless splashes of water.
It’s raining so heavily!
It’s broken, how can she go back?
"It's raining!" Han Zhibai heard the sound, covered the wound with one hand, and slowly walked out.
"Yes, it's raining heavily." She was worried, "Go back and lie down, don't move."
Han Zhibai saw her frown getting deeper and deeper, so he turned around and went back to his room obediently.
After a while, she came in with a bowl of black medicine.
An oil lamp was already lit in the room, the light was dim, it was lit by Han Zhibai.
After taking the medicine, she let Han Zhibai lie down and sleep.
Han Zhibai lay down and said, "Qingyue, wait a little longer. I'll take you back when the rain stops."
"You are already in this state, take a good rest and don't run around all the time. If you tear the wound, you will suffer again.
When the rain stops, Heihei and I will go back. Heihei should know the way." She kept looking at the door to see how heavy the rain was outside.
"You and Heihei can't get out unless I or Xiaobai leads you."
