Shen Nian was just about to take the porridge bowl from Lu Cheng’s hands, but he pulled it away. She looked at him in surprise, but he just smiled back at her.

"I’ll feed you."

As he spoke, Lu Cheng scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it to cool it down, and then brought it to Shen Nian’s lips.

Shen Nian had already regained some of her strength, so drinking a bowl of porridge was certainly not a problem anymore. She just hadn’t expected Lu Cheng to have no intention of giving her the bowl at all, planning instead to feed her directly.

Shen Nian looked at Lu Cheng. His expression wasn’t asking, it was insisting. She smiled. ’Oh well, since he’s so adamant, I’ll give him this chance to dote on me!’

"Have you eaten?"

Shen Nian asked as she looked at him. Although Lu Cheng didn’t reply, his reaction was all the confirmation she needed. ’He was definitely so focused on me that he’s still starving!’

"Then, let’s eat together!"

"Okay."

Lu Cheng nodded. Then, after feeding Shen Nian a mouthful, he ate a mouthful himself.

They finished the entire bowl of porridge just like that, one bite for her, one bite for him.

It certainly wasn’t the most delicious porridge, but it was the sweetest bowl Shen Nian had ever had.

After they finished, Lu Cheng brought a hot towel to wipe her face. If she hadn’t already bathed earlier, he probably would have insisted on carrying her to the bath as well.

"With you pampering me like this, I feel like a helpless invalid who can’t even take care of herself!"

Shen Nian gazed at Lu Cheng’s handsome face, enjoying his "attentions," and said with a smile.

"Don’t be ridiculous. What kind of helpless person is as capable as you?"

"Alright, I’m much better now. I can’t keep lying in bed. If I stay here any longer, I’ll really waste away."

After drinking that cup of Spiritual Spring Water and eating more than half a bowl of porridge, Shen Nian felt her energy had returned. The fatigue in her body had also faded significantly. At the very least, when she moved now, she no longer felt that tearing muscle soreness from before.

"Are you sure you can?"

Lu Cheng looked at Shen Nian with concern. He could still vividly remember how much pain she’d been in before.

"Of course I can! You go out first. I’ll come out as soon as I’m changed."

Normally, hearing Shen Nian say that, Lu Cheng would have definitely left first. It wasn’t that he lacked the nerve to stay, but that he worried he’d lose control if he saw something he shouldn’t.

But now, after she said it, Lu Cheng showed no sign of leaving. He just stood there, completely still.

"You can change. I’ll just wait for you here."

"How am I supposed to change if you don’t leave!"

Lu Cheng smiled, leaned in close, and gave Shen Nian a quick kiss on the lips.

"What part of you haven’t I seen? It doesn’t matter."

"..."

Hearing Lu Cheng’s words, Shen Nian froze.

It wasn’t because his words were a bit suggestive, but because he was the one who’d actually said them!

’Good heavens! What happened to her innocent Lu Xiaocheng? How could he disappear overnight, replaced by this Lu Dacheng who turns every conversation risqué!’

As Shen Nian thought this, her dazed expression gradually gave way to a deep blush.

’Saying things like he’s seen every inch of me... Is it really okay to say that so directly?!’

"You...! Hmph, I’m not talking to you anymore!"
