Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

In the hospital, Zhang Wenting is lying on the hospital bed.

Her eyes were dull and empty, looking out the window at the dead tree trunks with no leaves.

When she heard the door opening, she turned her head with difficulty.

When she saw Xu Wanning, her eyes, which had always been like stagnant water, showed a trace of ripples.

"How did you come?"

"I heard that you were hospitalized and I came here to visit you."

Xu Wanning opened the lunch box she brought and revealed the food inside.

This was something she conveniently put into the space for storage when she was cooking at home, and now it comes in handy.

"I asked the nurse, but you haven't eaten lunch today. I stewed the pig's trotters and roasted the rabbit. You can eat some."

Zhang Wenting narrowed her eyes and said calmly: ""I'm not hungry, thank you for your kindness.

Xu Wanning deliberately placed the opened thermos box under her nose, "Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"

The tempting aroma of the food penetrated her nostrils desperately.

Before Zhang Wenting could refuse again, her stomach made a disobedient "gurgling" sound.

She immediately blushed.

Xu Wanning smiled and poured the pig's trotter soup into a small bowl: "The temperature is just right, take a sip. I stewed the pig's trotters soft and glutinous, and added kidney beans in it. It's delicious. Try it?"

Looking at the bowl handed to her, Zhang Wenting hesitated and took it.

"It's not that I want to eat it, it's that I can't bear to reject your kindness and embarrass you."

Xu Wanning nodded: "Yeah, you're right, thank you for being considerate of me."

Zhang Wenting is indeed hungry.

Ever since she knew her legs would be disabled for life, she didn't eat much during this period and relied on nutritional injections to stay alive.

But I have to admit, Xu Wanning's cooking skills are indeed good. In a short time, she finished a bowl of pig's trotter soup.

There are still some left unfinished.

Xu Wanning poured her another half a bowl.

"Pig's trotter soup is a bit greasy. You haven't eaten well during this time. I'm worried that you'll have a stomachache if you eat too much. Don't worry, I'll give it to you tomorrow. I'll stew fish soup for you tomorrow."

"At this time of year, the fish is frozen, so where can we get the fish soup?"

"I said yes. Just wait and drink the soup. No need to question me."

"you……"

Zhang Wenting glared angrily.

We haven't seen each other for a few months, how come this person has become so shameless?

Seeing Zhang Wenting's angry look, Xu Wanning raised her lips and smiled: "You are better looking like this, full of life, so lovable."

Unlike what she saw when she first entered the ward, it was lifeless and had no energy at all.

Zhang Wenting turned her head away from looking at her.

Xu Wanning poked her: "Let's talk?"

"I'm not familiar with you, so we have nothing to talk about."

"Then I will go back and tell my second aunt that you have agreed to get married on New Year's Day."

Zhang Wenting focused her eyes on her again, but this time her eyes were not really friendly.

"Xu Wanning, after all, your second brother has pampered you for so many years, how about you not being able to see him like this?"

"how do I say this?"

That was her second brother. How could she not want to see him live a good life?

Zhang Wenting patted her injured right leg with her hand.

There was still a cast on her leg, and even though she had patted it hard, she felt no pain at all.

To be exact, there was no consciousness at all.

"You see, my legs are broken and I will be disabled from now on. Your second brother is young and promising and has a bright future. How can you be involved with me? I will only harm him!"

Xu Wanning understood.

The reason why Zhang Wenting is unwilling to get married is not because she resents Xu Maoting, but because she knows that her leg injury cannot be cured and she is worried that she will become a burden to him.

It was also at this moment that Xu Wanning truly felt how deep Zhang Wenting's love for her second brother was.

So deep that when danger came, she would rather risk her life to drag him to safety.

So deep that even though she had the opportunity to grow old with him, she cut off this friendship with her own hands because she was worried that she would become a drag on him.

At this moment, Xu Wanning admired Zhang Wenting.

She asked herself that she and Lin An also had a certain emotional foundation.

But if she really encounters this situation, she may not be as free and easy as Zhang Wenting.

This love is deep yet touching.

"Wen Ting, this is just your own idea. How about you ask my second brother what he means? Maybe he really wants to marry you?"

"Forget it." Zhang Wenting turned her head to the side to prevent Xu Wanning from seeing the tears rolling down her face: "Even if he wants to marry me, it's because I saved him. He feels sorry for me, not because of love."

She, Zhang Wenting, is not happy to have this kind of marriage without love!

"Okay, then you go to bed early, I'll go back first."

Xu Wanning left with her lunch box.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Zhang Wenting shouted angrily: "Who is this person? You don't know how to stay with me for a while even if you are here!"

During this period of time, her mood had been fluctuating due to her leg injury. People who came to visit her were basically scolded by her and treated with cold expressions by her. So gradually, except for her family and the Xu family, no one Who would like to come and visit Jean?

Being in the hospital alone can feel lonely.

I finally found someone I could chat with, but ended up leaving without saying a few words.

Xu Wanning returned to the military compound with her lunch box.

Since Lin An is still in Dajiang Village, she will be living at home during this period.

"Huh? Where did you get the lunch box?"

Xu's mother remembered that when Aning left, her hands were empty and she didn't take a lunch box.

Xu Wanning was upset that because she was thinking about something, she even forgot to "destroy the body and traces" of the lunch box.

Fortunately, she was facing Xu's mother. She lied without changing her face: "I just went to Quanfu Building to buy some food for Wen Ting. The insulated box was given by Boss Sun."

Xu's mother had no doubts at all, "Did Wen Ting eat it?"

"Eat something, not too much. Mom, I'm going to my second aunt's house to talk to my second brother."

When Xu Wanning arrived at her second aunt's house, her second brother had not returned yet.

She sat in the living room waiting and accidentally fell asleep.

When she woke up again, she found herself lying on a single bed, and the quilt covering her body still smelled faintly of tobacco.

"woke up?"

It was the second brother's voice, but the timbre was obscure and hoarse.

Xu Wanning opened her eyes and saw her second brother standing by the window, holding a cigarette between his slender fingers.

Most of the cigarette was burned, and when he saw that it was about to burn his fingers, he pressed it into the ashtray.

"You said that after riding in the car for so long, you didn't know how to go home and rest for a while, so you just ran around."

"I'm taking a rest." Xu Wanning jumped out of bed and stood next to Xu Maoting: "Second brother should know the reason why I came to you, right? If you don't tell me secret words, why don't you just tell me what you think?"

It’s really tiring to keep guessing.
