”Zennan, let's break up.”

Her soft and firm voice was filled with an unquestionable flavor. The bowl of porridge in Xu Zenan's hands spilled some of the porridge as he slowly put the bowl down.

What was coming had finally come, but he did not expect it to be so early!

[Is there no place for that man?] No, he didn't believe it!

”Xi Wu, you must be hungry. Let's drink some porridge first. You should get some sleep first. You'll be fine when you wake up.”

He was purposefully changing the topic!

She raised her hand to block the spoon that was brought back to her lips.

”No, Zenan, I'm not unconscious. I just can't do it. I mean what I say, I try, but no, I can't hurt you with your love. Let's do it like this, each of us take a step back and return to our position as good friends, even if it's my request to you, alright? ”

The sickroom was very quiet. A faint sadness lingered around them as Xu Zenan tightly pursed his lips. He tried his best to suppress the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart, but the pain in his eyes finally returned to calmness.

He caressed her hair and smiled bitterly, ”You know that I have never been able to do anything to you. I will unconditionally support any of your requests even if I am unwilling to return the position of friend. But … I will still promise you, but I will not give up.

What should he do? The woman he fell in love with!

Chen Xi Wu's eyes flashed with guilt. ”Zennan, you don't have to be like this. This is all my fault. The beginning is my fault, even if I wanted to stop, it's still me. I …”

”No need for that, I understand. I will wait for you.” He pushed the bowl into her hands, then stood up with a smile. ”I'm going to take a look at Yu Zhe's condition again. Hurry up and drink some porridge. It's so cold that it hurts your stomach.”

The more he acted like this, the more guilty Chen Xi felt. However, she couldn't do it, especially since what happened today had greatly exceeded her expectations.

Walking out of the ward, Xu Zenan glanced back at Chen Xi, who was still in a daze. He restrained his warm breath and walked towards Xi's sickroom. He had better explain some things clearly.
