She had been busy with her mother’s matters these past few days and had not eaten much. She was not in the mood to eat either. Now that she saw the man she had liked for so many years cooking porridge for her, she felt that it was worth it even if she died now.

Bai Ran picked up a spoon and took a small bite. Her eyes could not help but light up as she was stunned.

She then realized that Chen Chen’s skills were even better than hers.

“You made it for me last time too.” Chen Chen looked at Bai Ran and subconsciously smiled in satisfaction. “I can’t take advantage of you.”

“Then why didn’t you feed me like how I fed you last time?” Bai Ran took a small sip, but she said it in her head.

It was probably because this was what she was looking forward to.

“Are you sure?” Chen Chen immediately asked, his hand already reaching out.

“Uh…” Bai Ran suddenly reacted and put away the bowl in front of him. She immediately said seriously, “I didn’t say anything just now. ”

Why was Chen Chen so gentle today? Was he really going to feed her?

How was this a couple who wanted a divorce?!

She couldn’t bear to see him like this!

“Why aren’t you drinking? You haven’t eaten either, right?” Bai Ran said as she stood up and went to scoop some porridge for Chen Chen.

“It’s okay. I already ate. I cooked this just for you.” Chen Chen pulled Bai Ran back.

The word “just for you” stirred another wave in Bai Ran’s heart.

“Changing the topic? Why? Are you afraid?” Chen Chen suddenly smiled.

“Of course not.” Bai Ran lowered her head guiltily and threw away the spoon. She picked up the bowl and finished it in one gulp.

“Be careful. This congee has just been scooped. It’s very hot!” Chen Chen stood up worriedly.

“Cough, cough…” In the end, Bai Ran was not scalded but choked.

Chen Chen hurried over and patted her back to smooth things over.

Bai Ran felt the warmth of Chen Chen’s hand and coughed even harder.

Why was he acting so familiar with her now? He clearly did not even want to see her previously. He even sent her to study abroad! He even gave her a divorce agreement!

“How are you?” Chen Chen couldn’t help but tighten his grip. “If you’re not feeling well, I’ll send you to the hospital!”

“I, no… I’m fine.” Bai Ran touched her chest. She had finally caught his breath, but her back hurt. “Stop patting my back. I’m really fine.”

“Okay, okay.” Chen Chen quickly retracted his hand.

“Be careful next time. Don’t be in such a hurry. No one is fighting with you. There’s a lot left in the pot.” Chen Chen looked at Bai Ran gently.

Oh god, oh god!

Could Chen Chen not talk to her like this? She could not take it!

She would regret it very easily! She would easily beg him not to leave!

Bai Ran nodded, pretending to be calm, and did not dare to speak.

Ding!

Chen Chen’s phone on the table flashed with a WeChat message.

Bai Ran quickly glanced at it.

It was Hu Wan’s voice message.

She knew it was her again!

Bai Ran instantly calmed down.

Chen Chen was someone who was going to marry someone else. What was she thinking all day?!

Chen Chen opened WeChat and played the voice message.

Bai Ran heard the coquettish voice that Hu Wan had used to pester Chen Chen last time. “Ah Chen, where are you? My heart hurts so much right now. Come and see me, okay?”

“Then hurry up and call the doctor over. Don’t let anything happen,” Chen Chen replied in a voice message.

For some reason, when she saw how Chen Chen was talking to Hu Wan in front of her, Bai Ran suddenly had an illusion that he was doing this to let her know.

“The doctor can’t treat my heartache. I just miss you.”

When Bai Ran heard this, she silently vomited in her heart. So Hu Wan was so mushy behind her back.

“Don’t think too much. I have something on right now. I’ll look for you immediately after I’m done.”

“Ah Chen, what are you busy with all day? Isn’t Bai Ran’s matter over?”

“Soon. It’s not over yet.”

“Ah Chen, I don’t want to look for you all day either, but I’m really sad. I’m so afraid that I’ll spend less and less time with you. I’m so afraid that I won’t be able to make it until the wedding.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. These are already on the agenda. They’ll be over soon. Don’t worry.”

Chen Chen’s tone was very patient and gentle, but his brows were frowning more and more tightly.

He thought about Hu Wan, who was always immersed in her own emotions and asking for his company and then thought about the strong and calm Bai Ran in front of him. Although she was a few years younger, Bai Ran was clearly much more mature.

Bai Ran lowered her head and did not dare to look at him. She only listened to their conversation silently.

Chen Chen had really used all his gentleness toward Hu Wan. As for her, she was used to Chen Chen’s coldness. Whenever Chen Chen was a little gentle, she would feel overwhelmed by his kindness and become at a loss.

Her own extravagant wishes were just a daily thing with others.

“You should go first.. Sister Wan will be anxious,” Bai Ran said calmly.
