Maximize Interest, My Money Grows Infinitely-Chapter 260 - 190: Stealing a Kiss from Him Holding Her

Sitting in Liu Zhiying’s hospital room, Chen Cheng was looking at two profiles on his phone.

Chen Donghai’s provided one, as detailed as the one from the Xia sisters.

Meng Wanning’s date of birth, family address, social relations, even her times as a top student in primary school were clearly listed.

But the one he purchased for a hefty sum, anonymously delivered to his email, warranted some scrutiny.

The information in this profile wasn’t much, just a brief page, but every word was like a pearl. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

For instance, every Thursday afternoon at half-past four, she would go to a café named "M coffee," order a vanilla latte, and always sit in the same corner, spending the entire afternoon.

Also, she regularly visited a psychological clinic, having continued for almost three years.

Even stranger, the profile mentioned that Meng Wanning often flew to Qianzhou, sometimes staying for as long as a week.

Chen Cheng recalled her expression when she asked how many women he had that night, and her calm demeanor when interacting with Xiao Meier later. He grew even more puzzled about this young lady who was indomitably glamorous on stage yet demure off stage.

"Brother Cheng, it’s time to eat."

Liu Zhiying on the hospital bed was very happy, as Chen Cheng kept his promise and brought her the thing she wanted, but more importantly, he had also stayed with her for nearly three hours.

Chen Cheng put away his phone and walked over.

The small dining table on the bed had two meals brought from the hospital canteen by the caregiver, not particularly delicious, but filling.

Chen Cheng sat on one side of the bed and before he even picked up his chopsticks, he asked, "Is this what you’ve been eating these days?"

"Sometimes I order takeout, and Xiao Ya brings some of my favorite food when she comes," Liu Zhiying answered.

She looked into Chen Cheng’s eyes, "Brother Cheng, do you find it unappetizing?"

Chen Cheng smiled, "No."

He picked up a spoon, scooped up a small spoonful, and brought it to Liu Zhiying’s mouth, "Ah~"

Chen Cheng coaxed her like a child, and Liu Zhiying cooperatively opened her mouth and swallowed the food.

"Is it good?"

"Delicious," Liu Zhiying said with a smile, "Everything Brother Cheng feeds me is delicious!"

Chen Cheng smiled, "I’ll arrange for someone to bring you meals every day from now on."

Liu Zhiying hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, "No need, Brother Cheng, it’s too much trouble for you. Besides, the food here is bland but still good."

"You just got better, you need the nutrition," Chen Cheng said firmly, "Listen, it’s decided."

"But..." Liu Zhiying tried to refuse, but Chen Cheng interrupted her.

"No buts," Chen Cheng tousled her hair, "Focus on getting better, leave the rest to me, okay?"

Seeing Chen Cheng’s commanding yet gentle gaze, a warm current surged through Liu Zhiying’s heart, she nodded, no longer refusing.

"There, that’s a good girl." Chen Cheng chuckled softly and continued feeding her spoon by spoon.

The room was quiet, only the gentle clinking of the spoon against the bowl and their occasional soft whispers filled the air.

Liu Zhiying also fed Chen Cheng, turning the bland hospital food into a meal seemingly enriched with heaps of sweetness.

"Sis!~"

Liu Zhiya’s voice came through, and as she entered the hospital room, she saw the two eating.

The roast duck packed especially for Liu Zhiying, which she loved, suddenly seemed less inviting.

She hadn’t expected Chen Cheng to stay, nor did she anticipate such an intimate feeding scene between them.

"Are you here?" Liu Zhiying smiled: "Come over."

Liu Zhiya tiptoed over and stood next to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng turned around and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet..." Liu Zhiya shook the bag in her hand, "I specially went to the Cheapfang to buy this duck."

As she spoke, a hint of barely detectable disappointment and jealousy tinged her tone.

After all, just a few hours ago, she had been sitting beside Chen Cheng in the car, flirting back and forth, and now she saw him caring so attentively for Liu Zhiying, exuding a boyfriend vibe. Even though their relationship was clear, she still felt a bit sour.

"Thinking you would definitely like it..." Liu Zhiya forced a smile.

Chen Cheng noticed the emotional change in Liu Zhiya, smiled slightly, took the bag from her hand, "I haven’t had enough, let’s eat together."

Liu Zhiying also patted the spot beside her, "Xiao Ya, join us."

The three sat around the small dining table, not mentioning the earlier incident.

Liu Zhiying happily ate the roast duck, not forgetting to serve some pieces to both Chen Cheng and Liu Zhiya.

Liu Zhiya covertly observed Chen Cheng, seeing a different look in his eyes from the one he had when looking at her.

His gaze towards her sister was tender, doting.

While towards herself, it carried a hint of imperiousness and entitlement.

Of course, Liu Zhiya didn’t dislike this "domineering" demeanor, and even somewhat looked forward to it.

"How did your morning physique class go?" Chen Cheng casually asked.

Liu Zhiya put down the spring roll she was rolling, and instinctively replied, "It was okay, just the basic exercises, it really hurts when stretching!"

As she spoke, she also sneakily stretched her leg towards Chen Cheng’s foot, trying to garner some sympathy.

However, Chen Cheng just smiled, "Is it because you haven’t been exercising enough recently?"

"What? I exercise every day!",

Liu Zhiying watched the two banters, her smile deepening.

"Xiao Ya."

"What is it, sis?"

Liu Zhiying softly said, "After Brother Cheng leaves, can you help me clean up?"

"Sure."

Liu Zhiya promptly agreed, leaning in close to Liu Zhiying and sniffed, "It’s about time for a good clean."

"Do I smell that bad?" Liu Zhiying felt embarrassed but glanced towards Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng was quietly eating the roast duck and upon hearing this, he gently looked up, meeting Liu Zhiying’s gaze.
