School Beauty's Personal Martial Expert-Chapter 580: Deliver food
Chapter 580: Deliver food
Li Mengjie said, "Cold Bodyguard, we’re off to class now, and we’ll bring you dinner later tonight."
"No need for all that trouble," Leng Xuan hurriedly refused. "You should just go straight home after school. Without me by your side, you shouldn’t linger outside too much. If something happens, I won’t be able to protect you."
"That’s not acceptable," Li Mengjie shook her head. "We must come. We don’t trust anyone else to bring the food."
"Really, there’s no need," Leng Xuan said, with a hint of a headache.
"Hmph!" At this moment, Ling Xuejiu said irritably, "Since he doesn’t appreciate our goodwill, let him be. Let’s not bother with him anymore. Come on, we’re going to class." With that, she pulled Li Mengjie and, without looking back, they headed out of the hospital ward.
Leng Xuan gave a wry smile and shook his head, seeing that he seemed to have offended the young lady.
Just as he was enjoying the rare peace, the door was pushed open once again. Leng Xuan directed his gaze over and was surprised, then smiled and said, "Zhou Li, why have you come, too? Aren’t you going to class? You’re a good student, don’t get scolded by the teacher because of me."
Zhou Li smiled. Actually, she had come to deliver the meal she had cooked with her own hands to Leng Xuan. But when she arrived at the hospital entrance, she saw Li Mengjie and Ling Xuejiu entering, so she hesitated for a while and finally chose not to go in, to avoid the embarrassment of meeting them together. However, because of this, her heart was filled with bitterness. Li Mengjie and Ling Xuejiu were both well-known beauties at school, and their relationship with Leng Xuan seemed quite complicated, which made her feel a little disheartened.
Now, seeing Leng Xuan asking, Zhou Li replied, "I came to bring you food. I’ll go to school afterward; it won’t delay my studies. Try this, I made it myself, and I don’t know if it suits your taste." With that, she placed the lunch box she was holding on the bedside table.
When Leng Xuan saw the lunch box, he was overwhelmed. He had just eaten his fill and had no appetite left. However, when he made eye contact with Zhou Li’s expectant look, he couldn’t bring himself to refuse. It would definitely hurt someone’s feelings if they went through all that trouble to cook and he didn’t eat it. So, he put on a smile and said, "Sure, since you made it, I should definitely savor it. But, I still can’t move my hand."
Zhou Li’s face blushed at his words, as she picked up the lunch box and spoon and said softly, "Then... then I’ll feed you."
And sure enough, Zhou Li’s cooking was quite good. Although it couldn’t compare with the dishes prepared by Imperial Cuisine House, it had a unique homemade flavor. Leng Xuan, despite his full belly, managed to clean out the box. After finishing, he started to burp non-stop.
Zhou Li saw this and couldn’t help but smile happily. She tidied up the lunch box and said, "You rest well. I’ll leave now, and I’ll bring you dinner tonight."
"No! You don’t have to," Leng Xuan was overwhelmed. Why were all these girls competing to bring him food? But since he had already declined Li Mengjie and the other girl’s offer, he couldn’t agree to Zhou Li either, otherwise, if they found out, who knows how they would view him.
"Why not? Do you dislike the food I made?" Zhou Li looked somewhat aggrieved.
"No, that’s not it," Leng Xuan hurriedly shook his head. "I just don’t want to trouble you. Besides, the hospital has already arranged meals for me. You don’t need to go through so much trouble to come here every day."
