Xu Youyou had no appetite at all. However, after listening to Mo Shenbai's words, she forced herself to eat. The warm and soft porridge did not soothe her empty stomach. Instead, it made her stomach cramp and twist. All of sudden, she quickly leaned to the side and threw up.
Mo Shenbai's eyes widened slightly. He hurriedly set the bowl down and leaned over to pat her back gently.
Xu Youyou vomited until there was nothing to vomit but bile.
Mo Shenbai brought a cup to her mouth and said, "Drink a little water."
Xu Youyou took a sip before she reached out and hugged his neck. She stuck close to him like a baby kangaroo seeking comfort from its mother.
When Mo Shenbai sensed her dependence on him, he felt both gratified and distressed. He stroked her back and kissed her face before he asked, "Do you still feel uncomfortable? Should I call the doctor over to have a look?"
Xu Youyou shook her head slowly.
