Chapter 1298: Proposal 20
When the doctor left, Mu Tiantian didn’t know.
She was thinking about that thick bowl of Chinese medicine that Nanny Zhang brought her every three days, saying it was to nourish her body, and indeed... it really was for her health.
Yet she was kept in the dark, believing her body had no issues and still living each day joyfully.
The person who kept her in a good mindset was Bai Chenyao.
When she woke up, she couldn’t find him.
Mu Tiantian’s eyes were moist, but because of dryness, there were almost no tears.
How could Shen Tiancheng not see what she was thinking? A slight hint of jealous coldness flashed through his narrow eyes, and he suddenly grabbed Mu Tiantian’s wrist, forcing her out of her emotions of missing Bai Chenyao.
"Mu Tiantian, remember, the person by your side now is me, and from now on, it will only be me!"
Mu Tiantian stared hard at Shen Tiancheng, rendered completely speechless by his words.
"Alright, just get some sleep, rest well!"
Mu Tiantian didn’t want to hear Shen Tiancheng’s nonsense anymore, so she closed her eyes.
She really needed a good rest, to recover her health as soon as possible. Otherwise, in the face of the crazy Shen Tiancheng, she wouldn’t even have the power to fight back, let alone protect herself.
Mu Tiantian slept until seven in the evening, and when she woke up, she smelled a light and pleasant soup... it seemed to be fish soup.
Sitting beside the bed, Mu Haiyang saw his sister wake up, and a smile finally appeared on his unshaven face.
"Tiantian, you’re awake."
Seeing it was Mu Haiyang and not Shen Tiancheng, Mu Tiantian’s eyes instantly widened with joy.
"Brother!"
Mu Haiyang quickly responded, with endless tenderness and indulgence in his eyes.
"Glad you’re awake, Tiantian, you really scared your brother!"
Mu Tiantian smiled, but couldn’t say much. Speaking still made her tongue hurt, and her face would pale even more.
Mu Haiyang looked, somewhat puzzled.
"Tiantian, what’s wrong?"
Mu Tiantian certainly wouldn’t admit that she had bitten her tongue to stop Shen Tiancheng from doing anything to her. A truly embarrassing situation.
Embarrassed, she smiled awkwardly and shook her head.
"My tongue hurts, I bit it!"
Enduring the pain, Mu Tiantian quickly explained: "Uh... I dreamed of something delicious, and got greedy for a moment!"
Mu Haiyang: "..."
If Mu Tiantian had grown up in the Mu Family, Mu Haiyang would absolutely not believe her words, but considering she grew up in the Gu Family, given their situation...
Mu Haiyang looked at Mu Tiantian with even more heartache.
"No worries, once you’ve recovered, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll take you to eat it!"
Mu Tiantian had three black lines on her forehead. In her brother’s eyes, was she just a foodie?
The siblings chatted for a while. Mu Haiyang fed Mu Tiantian some soup. The soup was very light, almost oil-free, and with very little salt. Mu Tiantian’s tongue was injured, and eating salt was like rubbing salt in the wound.
So this pot of fish soup, Mu Tiantian drank hard, leaving not much at the end.
Mu Haiyang looked on and felt much more at ease.
"Rest well, brother will come see you again tomorrow!"
Seeing Mu Haiyang packing up the box and turning to leave, Mu Tiantian frowned and suddenly asked, "Brother, where’s A Yao?"
Mu Haiyang’s hand slightly paused while holding the thermos box, and a bright smile spread over his handsome face.
"I heard he went abroad on a business trip and won’t be back for a while!"
Mu Tiantian: "..."
