1539. I heard that it was I who pursued you instead.

Xia Yumo lowered her eyes and ate on her own, even speeding up her eating because of the awkwardness.

Gu Junhang helplessly sighed and gently patted the back of her hand, saying:

"Eat slowly."

Xia Yumo wanted to use eating to hide her embarrassment in front of Gu Junhang.

Gu Junhang didn't speak anymore, seemingly waiting for her to finish eating.

In the ward, only Xia Yumo's faint eating sounds could be heard in the quietness.

Even if she ate slowly, there was still an end to the meal. Xia Yumo dawdled, eventually finishing the bowl of light chicken porridge in front of her.

Gu Junhang naturally took care of the mess for her.

"Auntie Wang has something to attend to at home today, so I'll stay here to take care of you, okay?"

Xia Yumo didn't know who Auntie Wang was but figured she must have been the person taking care of her during this time, so she didn't ask further.

However, it was Gu Junhang's proposal to stay and take care of her that made her tense up once again.
