Chapter 127 – Delivering soup (4)
“Li Yan?” Li Man doubtfully repeated in a questioning tone . She finally remembered that she had seen this girl waiting for Li Yan before . She had looked beautiful from afar and looked even more beautiful close up . Her face was as beautiful as a painting, and her skin was a smooth as porcelain .
“Is he home? I heard that he was sick . Is it serious?” Because Li Man had remained silent, Mudan nervously asked a series of questions .
Seeing how anxious she looked, Li Man quickly pointed at the eastern hut . “He’s over there . He’s already much better . ”
“Oh, thank you . ” Mudan thanked her and hastily went to the eastern hut and pushed open the door .
AdvertisementLi Shu had gotten up from bed and was in the middle of putting on his pants . As soon as he saw Mudan, he quickly retreated towards the bed and covered himself with his quilt .
Mudan didn’t even look in Li Shu’s direction . Instead, she walked over to Li Yan’s side . “Older brother Li Yan, are you okay? I heard that you were sick . I… was worried all night . ” As she said this, tears were practically dripping down from her beautiful eyes .
Hearing these words, Li Yan’s long eyebrows furrowed . He impatiently pushed his quilt to the side and sat up .
In contrast, Li Shu couldn’t bear to see a beautiful woman crying . He comfortingly said, “Ah, Mudan, don’t cry . Look, isn’t my second brother okay now?”
Li Yan was leaning against the bed . He opened his eyes and slowly turned to glare at Li Shu . “Don’t be so chatty . ”
“Okay, okay, I won’t say anything . ” Li Shu grinned . He pushed his quilt to the side, quickly finished putting on his pants, picked up Little Five, and said, “Let’s go and give our second brother some privacy . ”
Once he said these words, Mudan blushed . She felt too embarrassed to keep crying and only used her handkerchief to lightly wipe her tears .
It was only now that Li Yan glanced at her . His gaze was neither cold nor warm .
The longer he stayed silent, the more Mudan felt ill at ease . She placed the small basket down on the cupboard, then she untied the layer of cloth that was covering the basket . She took out a bowl of chicken soup and brought it over . “Older brother Li Yan, I woke up before dawn to cook this chicken soup . Doesn’t it smell good? Drink some while it’s still hot . ”
Li Yan darkly curved his lips, and his gaze was a bit cold as he looked at her . “Shen Mudan, are there too many chickens in your home?”
“Older brother Li Yan, I…” Mudan bit her lip . She almost started to cry again because of his nasty attitude . “Just drink some . ”
“Go away . ” Li Yan waved his hand and knocked the bowl of soup over . In a second, the steaming hot chicken soup spilled onto the ground .
Mudan’s eyes widened in shock . Her lips trembled, and she wasn’t able to say a single word .
Li Yan got up from bed and walked around her to leave the hut .
Mudan blankly stood there . Her hands remained in the same position as when she was offering the bowl to him .
By the doorway, Li Shu, Little Five, and Li Man were also stunned . As soon as Li Yan went towards the door, the three of them automatically leaned towards a corner of the outside wall and didn’t dare to make any noises .
Li Yan coldly swept his gaze over these three people . Without saying a word, he headed towards the backyard .
Li Hua had recently finished cooking breakfast . When he came outside, he saw the three people standing by the corner and looking as if they had done something wrong . “What happened?”
Li Shu quickly pointed towards the eastern hut . Li Hua looked over and saw Mudan crouched down on the ground . She was weeping as she picked up the empty bowl .
