A god-level beauty system? But I'm already a god-level beauty!

Seeing Shen Ye's bewildered expression, Mu Jingyan chuckled softly.

The laughter was soft, emanating from deep within the throat, like a feather tickling the tip of the heart.

I'm a little hungry.

She stared at Shen Ye with expectant eyes.

Although it wasn't finished, the meaning was already self-evident.

Go find me something to eat.

Seeing Mu Jingyan transform from a loving mother figure back in a second, Shen Ye was completely baffled.

What exactly happened just now...?

Why did she suddenly become so gentle?

Why are you still looking at me like that?

They treated him like their own child.

Shen Ye was full of questions, but he didn't ask them.

Mu Jingyan's words reminded him.

He was also a little hungry.

I didn't eat much for dinner at the school cafeteria, and now my stomach is starting to protest.

"Lie down for a while."

Shen Ye stood up and straightened his slightly wrinkled school uniform.

"I'll go out and buy some food for you and bring it back."

What would you like to eat?

Mu Jingyan leaned against the pillow, tilted her head, and thought for a moment.

"Anything is fine."

Her voice was still a little weak, but much better than before.

"A light diet is fine."

"it is good."

Shen Ye nodded and walked towards the door of the ward.

Just as I reached the door, I bumped into a nurse walking down the corridor.

He stopped and called out to the other person.

"Excuse me, could you please keep an eye on the girls inside?"

The nurse heard the sound and turned around.

The moment she saw Shen Ye's face, she froze.

"Ah... okay, sure."

The nurse's tone was slightly unsteady, and a faint blush rose to her face.

Shen Ye didn't notice her odd behavior and simply nodded and thanked her.

Then he turned around and waved in Mu Jingyan's direction, indicating that he was going out to buy food.

Mu Jingyan gave a soft hum.

I just have a fever, it's not like I have any serious illness.

And now the fever has subsided, I just feel a little weak.

Shen Ye's actions made it seem like she had no ability to take care of herself at all.

What does "keep an eye on" mean?

She's not a three-year-old who needs someone to watch over her.

Although she thought this way, she didn't say anything.

The nurse walked in, her gaze falling on Mu Jingyan on the hospital bed.

I was stunned again.

This is so beautiful!

The girl leaning against the bed had large eyes with slightly upturned corners, giving her a cool and aloof air.

She had a straight nose, rosy lips, and a sickly blush on her cheeks.

She leaned against the pillow, looking like a delicate painting.

really......

That boy was so handsome, and the girl was just as good-looking.

This couple looks like they stepped out of a painting.

The nurse walked to the bedside and inquired about Mu Jingyan's physical condition.

After learning that she was alright and her fever had subsided, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss, where did you find your boyfriend? He's so handsome and cares about you so much."

Miss? You're much older than me, aren't you?

Mu Jingyan's cheeks flushed slightly.

Boy friend......

She should have spoken up and explained.

Shen Ye was just her classmate, although their relationship was indeed closer than that of ordinary classmates.

But surprisingly, she didn't say anything to correct the nurse when she mentioned "boyfriend".

Forget it.

Let her misunderstand...

Anyway, it's troublesome to explain.

and......

She looked down at her hands; the warmth of Shen Ye's hand still lingered in her palms.

She hadn't completely forgotten that warm feeling.

"Boyfriend, you're really something!"

A mature female voice suddenly came from the doorway.

Mu Jingyan's body stiffened abruptly.

She looked up and gazed towards the doorway.

A woman who looked to be in her early thirties was leaning against the door frame.

A well-tailored business suit accentuated her tall figure.

Her hair was piled up at the back of her head, revealing her angular face.

The woman's eyes were filled with anger as she stared directly at Mu Jingyan.

His imposing presence silenced the nurses beside him.

Behind her was Mu Jinghuan, who looked anxious but was blocked outside the door.

The little girl's eyes were red, as if she had just been crying.

He was also clutching a thermos in his hand, which he had obviously brought on purpose.

Qin Xian raised an eyebrow and said, "Jingyan, explain what you just said to me."

----------

Shen Ye walked in the opposite direction from Qin Xian, so he didn't run into them.

He was standing in the hospital cafeteria, looking at the menu on the screen on the wall.

Dumplings, noodles, porridge, wontons...

There aren't many types of this time point.

In the end, he ordered two servings of dumplings.

One order for dine-in, one order for takeout.

Shen Ye carried his tray and sat down by the window.

Outside the window, the night was pitch black, with only a few scattered lights on.

He picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a dumpling, and put it in his mouth.

Thin crust, generous filling, and tastes pretty good.

While eating, he took out his phone to reply to messages.

I slept for two hours, but I still had a lot of information piling up.

Especially Lin Chunuan's.

That girl sent him more than a dozen messages.

Lin Chunuan: [Brother, I'm home. Why aren't you back yet?]

Lin Chunuan: [Want me to make you a midnight snack?]

Lin Chunuan: [Brother, when are you coming back? I'll make you some noodles.]

The last one is:

Lin Chunuan: [Brother, be careful on your way back. It gets dark early in winter, so please be safe.]

Shen Ye looked at the dense text on the screen and smiled.

The little girl was quite unhappy when he said he had something to do and would be back late.

But in the end, they didn't make things too difficult for him and even told him to be careful.

Shen Ye did not reply to her.

Once I reply, I'll definitely start talking non-stop again.

He quickly glanced at the other messages and replied to a few briefly.

Then I put my phone away and continued eating.

Shen Ye didn't dawdle for long.

After all, there was a patient waiting for him.

He quickly finished his portion and then wiped his mouth with a tissue.

She stood up, picked up the packaged dumplings, and walked towards the ward.

The corridor was quiet, with only the occasional footsteps of the nurses on duty passing by.

Shen Ye paused slightly as he reached the door of the ward.

He heard voices coming from inside.

"I will make my own decisions, you don't need to interfere."

This is Mu Jingyan's voice.

The tone was harsh, clearly indicating an argument.

"Oh, looks like you've grown up and are ready to break free from your mother's control?"

This is a voice that is both somewhat unfamiliar and somewhat familiar.

Shen Ye frowned.

That sound...

He quickened his pace.

He pushed the door open.

With a "bang," the door slammed against the wall.

The room fell silent immediately.

Shen Ye's gaze swept over the three people in the room.

Mu Jingyan on the hospital bed, Mu Jinghuan holding her sister's hand beside the bed, and...

Shen Ye's gaze fell on the woman leaning against the bed.

Qin Xian.......

The two of them started to look at each other with unfriendly expressions.
