Aunt Wei expressed her concern for Su Chaoyang a few times before actually leaving. When Lady Mu saw her daughter obediently sitting by the bed, ladling up the soup, she cautioned her to "be careful, it's hot," and then followed Aunt Wei out.
Su Chaoyang watched her careful movements, thinking about the last time he fed her porridge—she had insisted on eating by herself and ended up spilling the bowl, nearly scalding herself. The memory made him uneasy, so he immediately reached out, "Let me do it."
However, Mu Xiangwan moved sideways to avoid him, lifting some creamy white soup to his mouth. But her expression was blank.
The man was taken aback, not expecting her to take care of him in such an "affectionate" manner!
"Why are you staring at me? Afraid I poisoned the soup? Relax, I wouldn't dare do that under your watch. Or would you like me to drink it first?" Seeing him stuck on her every move, with an indecisive expression, Mu Xiangwan responded irritably.
