CHAPTER 693: CHAPTER 690: CHENGZI’S LITTLE REVENGE

"Well... alright then."

Knowing that arguing was useless, Ye Jin gave up and set the porridge aside.

Afterward, she tried to find some other topics to talk about; seeing that time was almost up, she made an excuse to leave.

"Take the porridge with you."

Wen Wan spoke up.

Hearing this, Ye Jin laughed: "The porridge was specially made for you. Taking it back would be a laughing stock, wouldn’t it? Sister, you’re making it hard for me."

But Wen Wan responded indifferently, "I don’t eat bird’s nest."

She wasn’t lying because she indeed didn’t eat bird’s nest. Back when she was working at the company, clients often gave her bird’s nest and other tonics, which she always refused for various reasons.

These, however, were unknown to Ye Jin.

She thought Wen Wan refused her gifts due to some grudge, not knowing the real reason.

She felt somewhat embarrassed. If Wen Wan had declined at the moment she mentioned the bird’s nest in the porridge, maybe it wouldn’t have been a big deal.

Instead, she chose another way to lead her to believe she would drink the porridge. In the end, she pointedly slapped Ye Jin’s face in such a manner.

"Bird’s nest is such a good thing, and yet you don’t eat it, sister?"

Ye Jin’s attitude had clearly changed, but her face still had a smile, making it difficult to discern her current mood as good or bad.

"Personal preference, that’s all."

Wen Wan slightly curved her lips into a smile that was shallow and faint.

Ye Jin snorted, "Yeah, a person’s living habits are hard to change. Since sister doesn’t eat bird’s nest, I’ll take it away then."

She turned around and went back, picked up the thermos, and walked out. When she reached the door, she stopped and looked back at Wen Wan lying in the hospital bed, saying softly and gently, "Wangcai at home hasn’t had a treat for a long time. Today, I’ll give her the thing sister doesn’t want."

She thought her words would anger Wen Wan, even hoping fervently it would, but to her surprise, the person in the bed showed no change in expression.

Calm and indifferent, neither irate nor icy, her lips curved into a smile that was just right.

"I’ll be going then, will visit you another day."

Ye Jin was about to leave when she suddenly let out a shrill scream as she turned: "Ah...!"

Shen Cheng was coming toward her with a lunch box in hand, coincidentally bumping into her, her hand trembled, and the Tremella soup in the box splashed out, drenching Ye Jin’s head.

"Ah!"

Accompanied by Ye Jin’s cry, the thick liquid flowed down her head, trickled along her cheeks, and then dripped onto her clothing bit by bit.

She stood there dumbfounded for quite some time before remembering to wipe it with her hand, but as soon as her hand touched the liquid on her face, as if struck by a great shock, she began screaming again, "Ah! ...Ah..."

"Sorry." Shen Cheng glanced at her and said indifferently, "I’ll get you some tissues to wipe it off."

As she spoke, Shen Cheng walked past Ye Jin into the ward.

As composed as ever, as if what just happened had nothing to do with her.

She placed the lunch box on the cabinet, gave Wen Wan a look, indicating her not to interfere, and then took some tissues from the drawer for Ye Jin.

"Here, wipe it off."

Shen Cheng handed the tissues to Ye Jin, but Ye Jin was ungrateful. She took a deep breath to control her somewhat unsteady emotions, said "No need," and hurried towards the restroom at the end of the corridor.

Her disheveled appearance brought Shen Cheng a burst of satisfaction.
