The beauty smiled and asked again, “What are you doing?”
“I, I… am… eating…” Zhang Yumei stammered.
“Eating?” The beauty seemed to disagree, pointing at her ice-packed handkerchief: “You’re so capable! Eating with your eyes? Oh! It’s dripping!”
Zhang Yumei couldn’t help but laugh.
The beauty seemed to have a good sense of humor.
The beauty walked down the stairs, not minding the dust on her white clothes, and sat next to her on the stairs.
“When I’m in a bad mood, I love eating cream strawberry cake…” the beauty’s voice was sweet, with a slightly childlike softness, “Wait for Ji to come, there’ll be cake, I’ll share a piece with you.”
“Uh,” the uncertain intern nurse responded: “Thank you! But my senior said we can’t accept gifts from patients…”
The beauty was wearing a nightgown, and a very noble, tasteful high-end robe… probably a patient? But shouldn’t patients wear hospital gowns?
And she didn’t have an identifiable patient wristband.
“Are you a patient?” the intern nurse was a bit confused.
“I’m not!” the beauty pouted unhappily. “I’m not sick at all!”
Healthy and strong, where was she sick? Yet those annoying doctors and nurses constantly watched her, not letting her do this or that, and not letting her eat too much cake.
As they spoke, a subtle rumbling sound emerged between them.
“Uh…” Zhang Yumei and the beauty exchanged glances, unable to suppress their smiles, “So even a beauty gets hungry?”
Picking up the untouched lunchbox, Zhang Yumei politely asked, “If you don’t mind, shall we share?”
“Mm!” The beauty’s eyes lit up, nodding eagerly.
Using the lunchbox lid as another bowl, Zhang Yumei divided the fried rice and handed her chopsticks, using a spoon herself.
“Thank you!” The beauty graciously accepted her kindness.
The beauty ate with relish, leaving Zhang Yumei staring in amazement.
When did her mom’s cooking get so good? She took a bite, the taste hadn’t changed! It was just an ordinary ham and egg fried rice!
“Is it that delicious?” she couldn’t help asking.
“Mm!” The beauty nodded repeatedly, “So yummy!
Hehe!” Zhang Yumei couldn’t help but laugh, “Someone who doesn’t know might think you haven’t eaten for days! By the way, I’m Zhang Yumei, everyone calls me Xiaomei. And you?”
