She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

Ever since Meng Xia sprained her foot and it was inconvenient to do anything, Huo Xibai took the initiative to take care of her. He almost opened his mouth for food and stretched out his hands for clothes.

Even when Meng Xia wanted to go to the bathroom, it was Huo Xibai who carried her in and out again, saying he was thinking about her——

"I'm also worried about you. If you fall down and injure your other leg, or this leg suffers secondary damage, then... it won't just be as simple as carrying you in."

"..."

How could it be so easy to fall?

At first she blushed and refused to obey, but then she couldn't stand it any longer and let Huo Xi go. After several times, she even became very skillful in troublesome Huo Xi——

[I want to drink water, thank you. 】

Huo Xibai had already found the cell phone and package she had dropped before. In the past two days, Meng Xia would occasionally send him messages if she wanted to trouble him.

After a few minutes, when Meng Xia was about to get out of bed, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Huo Xibai came in with a cup of hot water.

"Have you been waiting for a long time? I was hanging clothes just now and didn't look at my phone."

dry clothes……

Meng Xia then thought that Huo Xibai had been handling the dirty clothes in the past two days, and her cheeks warmed slightly. She was not actually a person who liked to trouble others.

Especially this person is Huo Xibai... which makes the whole thing feel incredibly weird.

"Wouldn't it be more convenient to just keep the door open and just call me if you need anything?"

Pursing her lips, Meng Xia always felt that the room was her private domain. Although Huo Xibai had been in and out countless times in the past two days, she still didn't want to open it to the outside world.

Fortunately, Huo Xibai just mentioned it casually and did not force her. After she finished drinking the water, he asked, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat at night?"

Meng Xia glanced at the time displayed on the phone screen. It was already past six o'clock. It was indeed time to have dinner, but she had been lying in bed for a whole day without moving, so she didn't feel hungry at all.

"I can do it, whatever you want."

How could she, a person who not only eats from others but also needs to be taken care of by others, have the nerve to make demands every day?

"What do you mean it's up to me? I'm not the only one who wants to eat. Come here and see what you want to eat?"

Huo Xi came close to her with his mobile phone. The sudden distance made Meng Xia's scalp tighten, and she could smell the faint smell of mint on his body again.

I don't understand why he, such an arbitrary person, would respect her opinion so much on such a trivial matter.

Meng Xia chose a salad and quickly leaned back, trying to distance herself as much as possible.

"Are you so vegetarian?"

Huo Xibai raised his eyebrows and looked at her. Meng Xia just told the truth, "Actually, I'm not very hungry."

"Then let's eat later?"

"No, you order yours, there's no need to accommodate me."

"But I don't like eating alone."

Meng Xia had already noticed this, because Huo Xibai didn't have the habit of eating breakfast, but he still sat across from her every morning with a cup of coffee. Occasionally he was in a good mood, and would deliberately tease her and let her feed her a little. .

"Then you can order whatever you want, and I'll eat some with you then."

At the end, I didn’t forget to add, “I don’t have any dietary restrictions anyway, I can eat a little of everything.”

"Really?"

Huo Xibai raised his eyebrows, looking happy, "Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden? I can't believe it."

"..."

Meng Xia's eyes froze, and she couldn't help but clenched her palms. Is this called being nice to him? She just had a meal with him. She had tried every possible means to please him, but he had never looked down upon her...

Is this... the difference between liking and not liking?

Because he likes her, even if she keeps treating her coldly and speaking indiscriminately, and he even puts down his harsh words and leaves angrily several times, he still comes back in the end.

Because you like her, so you are now willing to take care of her in every detail?

Because he likes her, he keeps pestering her and refuses to let her go?

For the first time, Meng Xia began to think about this issue——

Maybe Huo Xibai really liked her?
