The following day.
When Fu Shiyan entered Shen Feiwan's hospital room, he saw Xu Rufeng and Shen Feiwan sharing a meal together.
Xu Rufeng had been looking after Shen Feiwan all along.
He served her porridge, picked vegetables for her, urging her to eat more.
Fu Shiyan's arrival caught both of their attention.
However, neither made the initial greeting.
Without saying a word, Fu Shiyan quietly sat down beside Shen Feiwan.
Xu Rufeng glanced at Fu Shiyan and stood up to leave.
Before he could, Shen Feiwan held his hand, signaling him to stay.
Xu Rufeng looked at Shen Feiwan.
She stayed silent and continued to eat her porridge.
Xu Rufeng didn't end up leaving.
He served a bowl of congee to Fu Shiyan and put it before him.
"Thank you," Fu Shiyan expressed his gratitude.
Xu Rufeng simply nodded.
The three of them sat silently at the dining table.
Each consumed the breakfast in their bowls.
For a long time, all was silent.
