Chi Xia scooped a bowl of rice and sat down at the dining table.
Su Chen watched as she scooped out a bowl of pork rib soup from a large bowl and placed it in front of him. ” Drink more soup and sweat to expel the toxins. ”
Su Chen did not move. His gaze fell on the bowl of soup. After a long time, he looked up at Chi Xia and opened his mouth. His voice was a little hoarse. ” Why did you stay to cook for me? ”
“Then why did you order takeout for me?” Chi Xia asked.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes. ” So you’re repaying me? ”
“I guess so!” Actually, she didn’t know what this was.
” Chi Xia, it’s not that easy to return my favor. ”
After Su Chen finished speaking, Chi Xia was stunned. She did not know what he wanted to do. When she looked up at him, she saw that he had already retracted his gaze, picked up the bowl, and drank the soup in one gulp.
The warm soup slid down Su Chen’s throat, making his dry throat feel better.
He handed the bowl to her. ” Get another bowl. ”
“The soup is right in front of you. Dig it yourself.” Chi Xia ignored him.
“Is this how you repay a favor?”
Chi Xia was speechless.
She was still so unreasonable even when she was sick. So, she was asking for trouble for herself?
Chi Xia told herself once again that this man was sick, and she would forgive him.
Then, the meal was very quiet.
Chi Xia ate a few mouthfuls of rice and raised her head again, asking softly, “”Is it your birthday today?”
“Yes.”
“Happy birthday.”
Su Chen paused and looked up at Chi Xia. Chi Xia picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in his bowl. ” Eat more. Just treat it as a birthday meal, even though it’s a little simple. ”
As the atmosphere eased up a little, Chi Xia did not keep a lookout and casually said, “”You’re really unlucky to be sick on your birthday.”
After saying that, the atmosphere froze.
These words seemed to have gone a little too far…
This man was already pitiful enough. He had no relatives by his side on his birthday and no one to take care of him when he was sick. She even said that he was unlucky. Aiya, what a mouth!
Before Su Chen could respond, Chi Xia laughed dryly. ” Don’t mind me. I was just joking. ”
Su Chen looked at Chi Xia’s awkward smile and his eyes turned cold. Was she pitying him?
In an instant, he felt a little frustrated. He lowered his head and continued eating without saying anything else.
There was only a pot of soup and a plate of stir-fried vegetables on the table. It could not be any simpler. It could be said that this was the most frugal birthday meal he had ever eaten.
In the past, he would celebrate his birthday with his brothers every year. Although his birthday was not much different from usual, at least the dishes on the table were incomparably sumptuous.
A birthday party with a bowl of rice, soup, and dishes did look a little pitiful.
However, for some reason, he felt a sense of satisfaction that he had never felt before.
If it weren’t for this woman today, he wouldn’t even be able to have such a simple birthday meal.
Suddenly, he felt lucky that his sudden illness had brought him such an unexpected birthday.
After the meal, Chi Xia cleaned up the dishes and the kitchen before coming out.
Su Chen was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. When he heard her voice, he opened his eyes and looked at her.
” Are you still having a fever? ” Chi Xia asked. Did you take your temperature?”
“No, I haven’t.”

“What other symptoms do you have? A sore throat? Is it itchy? Coughing?” Chi Xia threw out a series of questions.
Su Chen looked up. ” Can’t you hear me cough? ”
Chi Xia was speechless.
She was asking about his symptoms, but why was he not cooperating at all!
