"Cough, I... I was hoping you could come over to my place..."
Han Rui said, somewhat embarrassed.
"Sure."
Wang Tao drove to Han Rui's house. Sun Weiguang was not there.
"Let me get you some food..."
Han Rui quickly tried to get up.
"Forget it, let's just have something simple."
Wang Tao took out several bottles of nutrient supplements and handed two to Han Rui.
There probably wasn't much good food at Han Rui's place, maybe just some gruel exchanged with ration tickets, Wang Tao thought it was easier to have the nutrient supplements.
"Oh..."
Han Rui found the nutrient supplements quite palatable. After drinking one bottle, she felt like she could have more.
Then she looked at Wang Tao with some anticipation and said,
"Could you, um, not leave tonight...?"
"Huh?"
"It's not what you think, it's just that I... I'm a little scared..."
"Okay."
