He said he doesn't love me

When Sun Ran woke up, it was already past ten o'clock. The sunlight poured into the room through the window, warm but not dazzling.

"Hmm..." He sat up and stretched, feeling that he had slept very comfortably. There were no nightmares, but colorful bubbles, accompanied by melodious music and the fragrance of flowers.

"Awake?" Li Cheng noticed his movement and sat up. Sun Ran smiled at him and nodded gently.

"Then let's go wash up. Are you hungry?" Li Cheng found him a set of clothes and asked him to change into them. "This is what Dad bought for you this morning. Try it on to see if it fits. If not, we'll change it this afternoon."

Sun Ran took a look and saw it was a snow-white thin jacket, paired with a white long-sleeved shirt and black pants. Just looking at it gave off a youthful vibe.

"Thank Dad for me." Sun Ran put on new clothes, stepped on slippers and ran to the bathroom to look in the mirror. He admired his beauty for a while, and then ran back, "I like it very much. It fits me well. There is no need to change it."

Li Cheng took a look and had to admire his father's vision. He matched the white color very well and the size was indeed suitable. "I'm glad you like it, but it would be better for you to thank him in person, what do you think?"

"Hmm..." Sun Ran pursed his lips and thought for a while, "Okay, then let's wash up first."

"it is good."

After washing up, Li Cheng helped Sun Ran put on his new shoes and hat, and prepared to go out to the street with him. Sun Ran realized that it seemed that they were the only ones at home. He looked around and found that there was no one. "Grandma and Dad are not at home?"

"They went out early in the morning, leaving us to figure out how to get lunch by ourselves." Li Cheng adjusted his hat for him and couldn't help laughing at him. "You look like a doll, so pretty."

The white hat makes his skin look fair, and his pink lips look even more playful, and his clothes are also white, so he looks very handsome.

“…Ah?” Sun Ran looked confused. Why didn’t he feel that?

"Well, nothing, get in the car, we'll find a place to have lunch first, and then I'll take you around." Li Cheng held back his laughter and pulled him aside to go out, "I know a place that makes really delicious bullfrogs, do you want to go and try it?"

"Okay!" Sun Ran put aside what he had just done and thought about eating. Li Cheng waited for him to sit down, helped him fasten his seat belt, and got in the car. "Don't eat anything spicy later. You have to take your medicine after dinner. Don't get angry and refuse to take medicine. Dad said that if you are obedient, he will take you to the zoo after he is done with his work."

"...I'm an adult, not a child. How could I possibly refuse to take medicine?" Sun Ran tilted his head to look out the window, refusing to admit that that was something he would do.

Li Cheng shrugged, started the car, left the courtyard, and headed towards the bullfrog restaurant.

"What day is today?" Sun Ran looked out the window and saw many children playing on the street. Is today Saturday?

Li Cheng glanced at the time in the car and said, "Today is Friday, what's wrong? Do you want to eat fried chicken burgers?"

Sun Ran curled his lips. I'm not just thinking about eating. "Why are there so many children outside? I thought it was a holiday."

Today is the 29th, and it's not the Qingming Festival holiday yet. It's neither Saturday nor a holiday. It's morning instead of evening, which is really strange.

"Don't they have to go to school?" Sun Ran couldn't help but sigh, "Why couldn't we catch up with such a good thing when we were in school?"

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows, "It may not be a good thing. I heard that the flu is quite serious recently. I guess classes will be suspended." He parked the car by the side of the road, took out two masks from the drawer, raised his hand and covered Sun Ran's face with one, "Just in case, let's go, I'll take you for a walk by the lake after dinner."

He put on the mask himself and took Sun Ran into the store.

influenza?

He was lucky, fortunately it wasn't a viral cold, otherwise he would not dare to go out. Firstly, he was afraid of being infected by others, and secondly, he was afraid of infecting others. Thinking of this, he shrugged and quickly followed.

As soon as I entered the door, my nose was no longer filled with fresh air, but with waves of fragrance. The fragrance was not pungent, but it made my mouth water. I couldn't wait to taste it.

The steaming hot pot is bubbling, making the meat and vegetables in the pot taste more flavorful and goes well with rice.

It was almost noon and the restaurant was packed with diners who came here because of its reputation.

Sun Ran swallowed his saliva. He had heard before that Frog Man's taste was unique and the restaurant was usually packed. Seeing it today, it was indeed extraordinary.

Li Cheng greeted the front desk and took him directly to the second floor. Sun Ran followed him with a bewildered look on his face. Seeing this, he asked him in confusion, "Don't you want to order food?"

"I've already ordered." Li Cheng smiled at him, "This is my own restaurant, so there's no need to order. Just let them arrange it. Be careful with the steps."

Sun Ran nodded, "Is this owned by your family?"

"It's not really an opening, it should be considered a franchise. But this place is ours." Li Cheng took him to the private room, and after he sat down, he stood up and poured him a glass of water. "You can't eat spicy food. I ordered a fat frog with tomato and cheese."

"I'm fine with anything. I'm not picky." Sun Ran took two sips of water and waited quietly for the food to be served.

Li Cheng was sitting on the side looking at his phone. Suddenly, he held the phone in front of Sun Ran and said to him, "Dad's video said he has something to ask you."

Sun Ran blinked, and immediately sat up straight when he heard that, and smiled at the man on the other side of the phone screen, "Dad."

"Hey, dear, do you like these shoes?" The scene turned and a pair of AJCV light luxury sports shoes appeared. The blue and white color combination is minimalist and beautiful, and looks very versatile.

Sun Ran blinked at Li Cheng, wanting him to help refuse, but Li Cheng misunderstood and said directly, "Dad, he has a similar pair at home, do you have other styles?"

"What about this?" The person on the other end immediately changed his position upon hearing this. Now in front of Sun Ran was a pair of black and white sneakers. The style was different from the previous pair, but they were somewhat similar.

Sun Ran pursed his lips and said, "Dad, you don't have to buy me anything. I have shoes to wear, really."

The scene turned again, this time it was not the shoes, but Li Xujing's stern face. He frowned and said seriously, "My dear, when dad buys you something, you only have one way to go, that is to agree and accept it, understand? My taste is still good. If you don't like sneakers, dad will go to look at leather shoes later."

"Dad..." Sun Ran was speechless. Just as he was about to say something else, the video was hung up.

"Hmm...how did he know my size?" Sun Ran looked at Li Cheng, "Please talk to him for me. I really have shoes to wear."

Li Cheng shook his head. "He has a bad temper, and you can't change it no matter what. Just keep it to yourself. It's okay. At least call him dad and give him some gifts. He will be happy." He patted Sun Ran on the shoulder. "Listen to me. If you are polite to him, you will really make him angry."

"But... I didn't even bring any gifts, but I'm still accepting gifts. How can I feel comfortable..." Sun Ran sighed. He came in a hurry and even forgot to bring any gifts.

Li Cheng smiled and said, "I sent it in your name. I was shopping when your brother called me."

"Then I'll give you the money. After all, I bought it." Sun Ran thought about it and decided that since it was bought in his own name, he could just give him the money.

Li Cheng curled his lips, "My money is your money, isn't it? If you really want to repay me for this favor, why don't you help me take care of yourself."

"Please, isn't it my duty to take care of myself? How can that be considered helping you?" Sun Ran glared at him, as if it was up to him to take it or not, as if no one would complain about having too little money.

Li Cheng glanced at his hand and finally stopped talking.

"Mr. Li, the dishes you ordered are here. Here are the drinks. If you need anything else, please call us at any time." Two waiters brought their meals and two bottles of drinks.

"Thank you." Li Cheng nodded and watched them leave. He took a bowl of rice and planned to feed Sun Ran first.

"Be careful of the burn."

Li Cheng waited until Sun Ran finished his meal before he started eating. Sun Ran drank up the drink in the cup with a straw, stood up and stretched his legs, then sat back down.

"Will the soup be sour?" He licked his lips. The soup in the pot looked fragrant, with the natural red color of tomatoes, but he didn't know if it would be sour.

"Do you want to drink?" Li Cheng glanced at him, poured some into a bowl, and tasted it himself. "It's okay, not too sour. I'll use a spoon to filter it for you, and you can drink it with a straw."

"it is good."

He drank another full bowl of soup, then burped contentedly, pursed his lips, and sat obediently in the chair, yawning and waiting for Li Cheng.

Li Cheng finished the food in his bowl in a few mouthfuls, wiped his mouth with tissue paper and said, "Sit here and don't move around. I'll go ask them for warm water for your medicine."

"Oh." Sun Ran shook his feet. He was not a child, so how could he run around?

Li Cheng rubbed his head and went out. After a while, he came in with two glasses of water in each hand.

"Come on, take the medicine, take a rest and then go for a walk." Li Cheng took out a single dose of instant powder from his pocket and poured it into the water, then opened the package, revealing a pile of pills inside.

Sun Ran saw the black licorice slices at first glance, and there was a faint strange smell rushing into his nose. He frowned and said, "Can I not eat this? This tastes terrible."

Li Cheng smiled and shook his head, "No, eat quickly, and then eat this." He shook the candy in his hand, "It's okay, I swallowed it all at once."

I believe you.

Sun Ran smelled the pill, and it smelled just as bad as ever. After careful consideration, he compromised and said, "Okay."

After all, he is not a child anymore, and he understands that the disease will not be cured without taking medicine.

After Li Cheng fed him the medicine and was about to tear open the candy for him, he saw Sun Ran suddenly vomiting non-stop. He was startled and hurriedly took him to the bathroom.

"You want to vomit?" Li Cheng gently patted his back, trying to make him feel better. But Sun Ran shook his head and said he couldn't vomit. He took a long time to stand up straight.

"...much better..." He forced a smile at Li Cheng, not knowing whether he was trying to convince him or himself.

"Zorn, if you need to tell those meaningless lies when you are here with me, it will make me feel that the time and love I have invested in you are not worth it." Li Cheng hugged him in his arms, "If you feel uncomfortable, just say it. No one will blame you. Don't keep everything in your heart. Tell me if there is anything. I can help you."

"...I don't feel uncomfortable, I just don't like the taste." Sun Ran replied sullenly, "Okay, stop hugging me, I need to rinse my mouth."

After packing everything up, Li Cheng took him downstairs to pay the bill.

Sun Ran was holding a candy in his mouth, looking around the store. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by the cabinet behind the front desk.

On the cabinet was a bag in the shape of a chinchilla, very cute, with two pink cheeks on its chubby face. Its short little hands were holding a small corn, chewing it, and its eyes were narrowed with joy.

"What's wrong?" Li Cheng paid the bill and turned around to see him staring at the front desk without moving for a long time. He followed his gaze and reason told him that Sun Ran was not looking at the front desk, but at the cabinet behind her.

"Is that bag for sale?" Sun Ran looked at him and asked.
