Chapter 34 The medical Meal
Echo came back after going to buy lunch and she saw her boss was still standing in the rest area of the hospital, she walked over to greet him. Ethan raised his eyebrow and looked the lunchbox in her hands, “What did you buy?”
“Ah? Oh… vegetable congee, the patient can’t eat oily foods and the doctor told me that she can only have some light foods.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Vegetables…
He remembered that the stupid woman hated vegetables and vegetarian foods whilst the other ladies diet to keep fit, normally they will have vegetables. She is the only one who would choose meat every single time and she would be not happy if there’s no meat on the table. Everyone was surprised by her when dining with her and she could always keep it elegant while having meat and drinks. She also had a body that would never gain fat no matter how many she ate.
She would also shake the drumstick and then laugh at those ladies who are too cautious, she suggested them to be more open and don’t pretend to be a classic lady even when they are eating. That move made all those ladies angry and scold her behind and they thought she would only say so because she couldn’t get fat.
Oliver An was temporarily summoned to the hospital and he was tired like a dog, he found Ethan while carrying the lunchbox and gasped: “My brother, why did you ask me to bring all these to the hospital? Are you sick?”
“No, just send these to Echo.” Ethan didn’t say much, just issued orders coolly with his hands. Oliver was surprised while saying “Holly crap.” There are thousands ‘unbelievable marks’ appeared on his face, when did this person become so concerned about his employees? Oliver would never believe that Ethan would suddenly care about his employees, he remembered the woman who’s called Echo and
he thought the woman seemed to be the supervisor of the Underground City. The woman is in good shape and pretty face, so did she hook up with Ethan?
The woman who could make him travel thousands of miles to ask Yoyo Lin to bring medical meals must be someone important and the woman is called Echo Xu.
However, Oliver realized that everything was not that easy when he heard the name called Belle Ye and he knew that something was wrong.
Belle? The meal that Ethan asked him to bring was for the woman called Belle Ye!!!
Three exclamation marks couldn’t describe how shock he is right now.
Fuck! Did they just get back together after losing contact for five years?
Oliver went back to find Ethan for an answer with all his curiosities and questions and found out that he has been walked to nowhere. He saw the hospital sign after walked to the door and became not calm again, this is the same hospital where Ethan’s fiancée- May convalesced?
Only a few people would mention the thing happened five years ago and many people pretended that they’ve forgotten that thing and it could be really forgotten over time.
Oliver barely had any impression of May, he only can remember that she was a very nice and sweet girl who usually followed Belle Ye. May who was from a small family became popular as well during the best days of Belle, so she appeared at all those fancy events.
He has a deeper impression of Belle comparing to May. Here is a metaphor of this, Belle was like her name, she was the princess no matter her appearance or her family. She was like a bright pearl and couldn’t be ignored no matter where she goes. She would be the best-looking one even if put her in the middle of the beautiful ladies.
However, May Ning was an obscure interpretive flower who was pure and gentle just like a harmless pet. She would be lost in the crowd and disappeared in a blink if put her in the middle of the normal people.
But Ethan who has the same level of appearance only care about the quiet flower and he gave up the unique pearl for this little flower.
Oliver somewhat understood Ethan’s thoughts, a man like him need a soft and gentle woman to understand him, a completely harmless flower to him. A woman like Belle is a delicate rose who can only be seen from distance.
Although he really thought that Ethan and Belle are better if they stand together, they would give everyone a heavy impression if they are together.
Belle woke up until the afternoon and she hadn’t slept in the day for a long time, she was sore by the sunlight coming through the window, so she lifted her hand to block the light. She took a look around the room and didn’t see Echo, only found that the man sitting next to her is familiar. His name is Oliver An.
Oliver cut an apple and ate a few bites first, he passed a small piece to her and asked: “Do you want it?”
Belle Ye shook her head and looked around, she asked while coughing: “why are you here?”
“Oh, Echo left because she has something to do and I’m here to wait for you to wake up.” Oliver put down the apple and opened the meal he brought, the foods in a thermos is still hot. He handed it to her, “Do you want me to feed you?”
“No, thanks. I will do it by myself.” She was not used to be treated so politely and she sat up in a hurry while saying thank you. Her look was very strange which contains fear and humbleness, she seemed
that she could be frightened at any time. Oliver frowned and gave her the pot with an unhappy face.
Belle shuddered when she put the fresh and soft foods into her mouth and her eyes became wet when smelled the familiar smell.
“This congee?” She asked Oliver.
“Don’t look at me, someone asked me to pick it from Yoyo’s.” Oliver spread his hands.
It was his style, she still knew it even she had been away for so many years.
Yoyo Lin is both a person’s name and a store name. The manager of the store is a man who is determined to be the best chief in the world, he has been studying medicine supplements since he was a child and he really became a master after the study. Some people say that Yoyo Lin’s food works better than the medicine prescribed by the hospital, it is not only delicious but also healing people.
Belle knew Yoyo Lin is because Yoyo’s homemade pig’s feet with sauce, all the sauce he made was boiled with 28 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials and it tasted absolutely unique.
But now, all her attention focused on the “someone” from Oliver’s mouth.
The answer to the person who asked him to go to Yoyo’s and brought the meal here was so obvious.
But, she didn’t want to believe it.
The congee in her mouth suddenly had no taste and she swallowed a few bites, the hot congee made her throat more painful and prickly, but Belle seems to be unconscious.
——
Ethan already left the hospital after received Oliver’s call and he took the time to visit May today, the doctor said that May’s condition is getting better and she probably will wake up after a few more days.
This is undoubtedly great news for him.
It was just that he hadn’t digested the good news and Echo called to report Belle’s hospitalization of high fever. It had nothing to do with him even if the woman died, but May is still breathing, so Belle couldn’t die.
He wanted to let May finish the damn woman’s life by herself!
