Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Delivering Soup
"Huh? In the garage? Why donât you just stay here?"
"Itâs alright, the boss told me to try not to disturb your privacy."
"Uh..." Bai Yiran was momentarily speechless.
"Itâs okay, Yiran. Just let him stay in the garage. Thereâs a small room inside there specifically for drivers. It has everything, so Wang Hai wonât be inconvenienced," Sister Liu explained at the right moment. She could see that Bai Yiran didnât want Wang Hai to feel uncomfortable. What a kind, unpretentious girl, Sister Liu thought, growing even fonder of Bai Yiran.
"Oh, I see. Then you wait for me there, and later take me to the hospital."
"Alright!"
Sigh... Bai Yiran let out a long breath. She still needed to adjust to this wealthy lifestyle.
Liu Zhen was catching up on sleep when the hospital room door was gently pushed open by Bai Yiran from the outside.
"Hello! Iâm here!"
Liu Zhen was startled awake by Bai Yiranâs voice, showing displeasure. When he saw it was Bai Yiran, he immediately calmed down, "Oh, itâs you. I just felt a bit dizzy and took a nap."
Hearing this, Bai Yiran immediately became concerned, "Youâre dizzy? Are you okay? Do you need a doctor?"
Liu Zhen hurriedly waved his hand. It wasnât dizziness; he had just played games too late the previous night. After breakfast, he felt sleepy again and was just napping. "Iâm fine, no need to trouble the doctor."
"Really?"
"Really!"
Bai Yiran looked at Liu Zhen skeptically, then smiled, holding up a thermos. "I made you some pork rib soup, give it a try!"
"Thatâs great, I was just a bit hungry!" Liu Zhen looked eager.
Bai Yiran poured a bowl of soup for Liu Zhen and handed it to him. "Drink it while itâs hot!"
Liu Zhen took a sip and a warm, satisfied smile appeared on his lips, "Delicious!"
"Really? Then drink it all!"
"Alright, Iâll drink it all!"
"What do you do for work, Liu Zhen?" Bai Yiran took the empty bowl from Liu Zhenâs hands and poured him another bowl.
Liu Zhen accepted the bowl, "Oh, Iâm an actor."
"An actor! Thatâs impressive!"
"Whatâs impressive about it? Iâm just an obscure little actor," Liu Zhenâs tone was self-deprecating, his face showing a hint of melancholy.
Seeing Liu Zhenâs somber expression, Bai Yiran encouraged him, "Donât worry, you have to believe in yourself! Youâre handsome and warm-hearted; you just need one chance, and if you work hard, youâll definitely make it! Iâm looking forward to seeing you on the big screen!"
"You really think so? Then Iâll take your kind words!" Liu Zhen finished the soup, looking at Bai Yiran with satisfaction. "Having someone bring me soup when I need it is really wonderful. Yiran, youâre so kind!"
Liu Zhen looked at Bai Yiran deeply, as if he were gazing at the girl he deeply loved. Bai Yiran thought it was just her imagination, after all, they had only met twice, and she was the one at fault in their previous encounter.
"Youâll definitely find a girl whoâll bring you soup anytime, anywhere in the future!"
"Yeah, I think so too!"
Liu Zhenâs gaze made Bai Yiran feel a bit uncomfortable, "Uh... well, you have a good rest. Iâll head back now and see you tomorrow."
After Bai Yiran left, Liu Zhenâs previously deep gaze changed instantly. He casually picked up his phone, opened a frequently played game, and muttered to himself, "What girl? Theyâre just for sleeping with."
Wang Hai drove Bai Yiran home, and she let him off work, having no other places to go. In the evening, since Leng Yichen wouldnât be back for dinner, she didnât have to cook so many dishes. She could just eat something simple.
