The CEO's Paranoid and Spoiled Wife-Chapter 853 - 850 I Should Go Back Now

"Thank you for the trouble today." Ji Muran broke the eerie silence.

Shen Wenzhou didn’t say much, just told Ji Muran, "The weather is getting colder lately. Take care of yourself, and no matter how busy you are, don’t sleep at the shop."

A hint of surprise flashed in Ji Muran’s eyes. How did Shen Wenzhou know that sometimes she would stay at the shop because she was too busy?

Shen Wenzhou didn’t hide anything, directly telling Ji Muran, "After we first met, I looked up your information."

"Oh." Ji Muran looked at Shen Wenzhou and nodded slowly.

She didn’t seem to have any objections on the surface, but Shen Wenzhou couldn’t be sure what she was thinking in her heart.

For some unknown reason, Shen Wenzhou explained, "No other intentions, just..."

"I understand, I understand!" Ji Muran hurriedly interrupted Shen Wenzhou, implying she understood everything and there was no need for further explanation from him.

Seeing this, Shen Wenzhou didn’t say anything more.

Nearly an hour later, the hotel staff brought the food over.

Ji Muran had a light vegetable and lean meat porridge, and Shen Wenzhou’s meal was also light, just to make it easier for Ji Muran to eat.

After the meal, Ji Muran got up to clean up the dishes but was stopped by Shen Wenzhou, "I’ll do it."

Ji Muran obediently sat on the sofa. Shen Wenzhou quickly cleaned up, checked the time, and reminded Ji Muran, "You can take your medicine now."

Shen Wenzhou brought the medicine over and also poured a cup of warm water, placing it on the coffee table. Ji Muran looked at it and couldn’t help but frown.

"Do you need me to get you some candy?" Shen Wenzhou asked, his tone full of amusement.

"Really?" Ji Muran quickly looked up at Shen Wenzhou, her eyes filled with anticipation.

In fact, Shen Wenzhou was only joking, but his rare attempt at humor was a failure.

When their eyes met, Ji Muran pursed her lips, then obediently started taking her medicine.

Shen Wenzhou watched Ji Muran, observing all her expressions. Even though she was taking cold medicine, Ji Muran looked as if she were swallowing poison, so pained was her expression.

This made Shen Wenzhou wonder if her medicine was really that bitter.

After finishing her medicine, Ji Muran let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Shen Wenzhou snapped back to reality and told Ji Muran, "I should head back."

"Hmm?" Ji Muran suddenly heard Shen Wenzhou say he was leaving and instinctively looked at him, showing a trace of reluctance on her face.

Shen Wenzhou looked at Ji Muran as well, seeing the trace of reluctance in her eyes. Shen Wenzhou’s lips moved slightly, as if he had something to say.

However, Ji Muran already reacted and hurriedly said with a smile, "Thank you so much for today. When I get better, I’ll treat you to a meal, Mr. Shen."

Shen Wenzhou felt a bit amused. Changed her mind so quickly?

"Take care on your way home, Mr. Shen," Ji Muran added.

Since the farewell words were already spoken, Shen Wenzhou didn’t linger. He nodded and stood up.

At the door of the ward, Shen Wenzhou carefully reminded, "If you still don’t feel well tonight, remember to call the doctor. There’s a smart call button by your bed; just press it and a nurse will come to check on you."

"Got it, I know!" Ji Muran smiled brightly.

Shen Wenzhou still felt a bit uneasy. After a moment of contemplation, he finally said, "Or you can call me directly."
