He Jingyan really guessed it right. With his ankle swollen like a bun, there was no way Lin Huan could walk at all for the whole night. Lin Gui picked up his phone to ask for leave, and Chen Jingxu walked in, holding a tray. "You're awake, have something to eat."
Lin Gui frowned unhappily, while Chen Jingxu wore a pair of sneakers and stepped on his newly bought plush carpet. Chen Jingxu seemed completely unaware of Lin Gui's mood as he proudly displayed the breakfast in his hand.
"Pan-fried buns and crab congee, both of which you like to eat. I got up early to make them."
The pan-fried buns are crystal clear, and the crab porridge is steaming hot, which is indeed the taste that Lin Gui likes. But Chen Jingxu can't cook at all, let alone the complicated pan-fried buns.
Before the breakup, he used to enjoy messing around with these things. Chen Jingxu is picky, there aren't many things that he finds delicious, and Lin Gui's excellent cooking skills are Chen Jingxu's favorite.
When they first got together, Lin Gui playfully asked Chen Jingxu what he liked most about her. Chen Jingxu didn't want to answer such a boring question, but after being pestered by Lin Gui, he casually said, "You're pretty good at cooking." Lin Gui didn't expose him and took a sip of crab roe porridge.
"How is it?" Chen Jingxu asked eagerly, with a hint of nervousness hidden in his eyes.
"It's pretty tasty," the crab roe congee from the old street still tastes the same.
Chen Jingxu visibly breathed a sigh of relief, "Are you still going to work today? I'll drive you there."
"No need, I've taken a day off."
"Then I'll also..."
"No need, you go to work."
Chen Jingxu watched as Lin Gui quietly drank his porridge, and suddenly felt that the distance between them was so far. In the past, Lin Gui always liked to stick to him, and the love in his eyes seemed to overflow. He used to be sure that Lin Gui loved him to death, and that Lin Gui would never leave him.
But now he has a kind of inexplicable panic. Yesterday's breakup was lightly accepted, but it seems that something has changed.
"I'm off to work then." Chen Jingxu ruffled Lin Gui's hair and considerately closed the door for him.
Even when pretending, Chen Jingxu is not a considerate boyfriend. Lin Gui looked at the dirty dishes and could only hop on one leg to take the dishes out. But just as he hopped into the living room, he heard the doorbell ring.
"Did you forget your keys again?" Lin Gui asked as he opened the door, expecting to see Chen Jingxu, but instead found He Jingyan standing there with a smile.
"How did you get here?"
"I was staying nearby yesterday, so I thought I'd come over and see you." He Jingyan was carrying a lot of things, it seems he's really feeling guilty.
"Come in." Lin Gui moved aside to make room for him.
He Jingyan glanced inside, saw no other figures, and smiled even more, "Do you need to change your shoes? I'm afraid of dirtying your newly changed carpet."
Lin Gui has a slight cleanliness obsession. He changed the carpet last week. Chen Jingxu has stepped on it countless times. He reminded him, but it was of no use, so he didn't bother to speak up.
"Even strangers have noticed the results, it's not difficult to see at all.
"How are your feet? Are they feeling any better?" He Jingyan placed the things on the coffee table in the living room and immediately went to inquire about Lin Gui's injury.
"I'm much better." Lin Gui hid her swollen foot behind her and lied without blushing or skipping a beat.
He Jingyan accidentally glanced at the empty bowl on the table, and his eyebrows immediately furrowed. "Did you have seafood porridge?"
"What's wrong?"
"Yesterday the doctor said that you can't eat seafood with the medicine you're taking." He Jingyan pulled Lin Gui and started to walk out, "I'll take you to the hospital. The doctor wrote it down for you on paper, didn't you see it?"
"I didn't take the medicine." The medicine was still quietly placed on the shoe cabinet at the door, obviously forgotten by both Chen Jingxu and Lin Gui.
