Gu Yi ignores the delicate atmosphere and puts the bag in his hand beside the bed, taking out things from the bag one by one, then adapts the backrest for Yu Fei and helps her sit straight.

“I went downstairs and brought some rice porridge. Your stomach may feel uncomfortable without eating anything for such a long time. If you really have no appetite you can just eat a little to warm your stomach.” Gu Yi holds a small bowl of rice porridge when saying.

When Yu Fei is ready to take the bowl, he has scooped a spoonful of porridge, then lifts it to her mouth.

She doesn’t expect Gu Yi wants to feed her, even under Ko Chen’s nose. She is frozen.

Gu Yi’s hand stops in the air without forcing her. He looks at her tenderly with a lasting smile which has even become more bigger than before. He looks at her more tenderly, ignoring Ko Chen’s glowing eyes totally.

“Open you mouth.” His voice sounds warm, then Yu Fei opens her mouth subconsciously. Next second the spoon is in her mouth. Rice is cooked soft and glutinous, although the porridge only has rice, it’s fragrant and sweet. She swallows the porridge, and the warm feeling has spread from her stomach to her intestines, it’s really comfortable.

Gu Yi feeds her one spoon by another, pretending that Ko Chen is not there. Yu Fei tries several times to take the spoon and bowl and eats by herself, but Gu Yi doesn’t allow it and says she is a patient and needs to rest. Yu Fei has no way but to obey him.

Ko Chen looks at them in silence. On the surface he is calm, but deep down in his heart he feels terribly angry, but he holds it back.

There is a moment of awkwardness. In fact, Yu Fei observes the reaction of Ko Chen with her eyes secretly. Seeing he has no reaction, she is upset and feels no appetite. Without eating much, she waves her hand, saying she is full.

Seeing she doesn’t want to eat more, Gu Yi doesn’t force her and puts down the bowl. Then he takes a tissue to wipe her mouth. This behavior is more intimate than feeding.

Yu Fei takes that tissue in a hurry and wipes herself.

Ko Chen holds back his anger, which makes his heart painful. He feels his rage may break out anytime. His green tendons on both sides of the forehead throb.

Yu Fei sits on the hospital bed, and Gu Yi and Ko Chen sit on different sides. Yu Fei’s eyes can’t help but sweep to the Ko Chen that way, but the man has been a poker face, and she can’t understand what he is thinking.

However, thinking of what happened before, Yu Fei feels her only small fire of hope in her heart goes out in an instant. Forget it, don’t give yourself hope for nothing. In the end, it is just disappointing.

The feeling of powerlessness rises little by little from her heart, so she forces herself not to see Ko Chen, but to look at Gu Yi, instead.

“I…”

She just said one word, and the door of ward is opened suddenly and three man look at door together. The person doesn’t expect this and is stunned when she comes in.

Looking at her face, Yu Fei simmers with fury, and her face turns pale with an unfriendly tone, “What are you doing here?”

Stunned a second, Yu Yu quickly sweeps Ko Chen with her eyes, and an idea occurs to her immediately. Her face puts on worry, then she runs to the bedside to hold Yu Fei’s hand, “Sister, are you all right? Why are you so careless, even if you don’t want this child, you can’t hurt your body like this. ”

Yu Yu’s words, on the surface, are to comfort Yu Fei, but in fact, each word is a trap.

Yu Fei looks at her to whom nothing seems to have happened before, feeling her limit is being broken over and over again. How could there be such a shameless person?

She tries to pull her hand back, but find that Yu Yu uses full strength and holds her very tightly. She just woke up, and is so weak that she could not use her strength at all.

Intentionally or unintentionally, Yu Yu comes so close to Ko Chen that her arm seems to touch the man’s suit. It makes Yu Fei uncomfortable.

Yu Fei has no mood to deal with her and asks her to leave, “I’m not comfortable. Just leave.”

To her surprise, at her words, Yu Yu’s tears immediately fill her eyes, and the corners of her eyes turn red. She withdraws hands sadly, looking down and says with a lower voice, “Sister, I…I just heard Uncle Zhang say you almost lost baby, so I come to see you. I…”

She says incoherently, looks up at Ko Chen occasionally, and seems quite pitiable and helpless.

Yu Fei almost wants to clap for her acting skill. If she develops in entertainment circle with this excellent acting skill, those movie queens may not rival her. She may easily win the Oscar.

She can’t forget that Yu Yu trapped her in a lane and tried to murder her. When thinking that this woman with delicate appearance almost killed her, Yu Fei can’t calm down.

“Get out!” Yu Fei points to the door and shouts to Yu Yu.

Yu Yu looks terrified and trembles. She opens her eyes widely, tears dropping, and soon her whole face is wet.

Ko Chen who has been in silence suddenly speaks, “Yu Fei, Yu Yu is your sister. Don’t you think you are going too far?”

Although he speaks in a pale voice, he is clearly helping Yu Yu.

Yu Fei feels a darkness in front of her eyes. She doesn’t expect that the man she always trusts and loves would one day stand on the side of the woman who wanted to kill her, and even speaks for her.

She bites her lips tightly, opening her eyes widely to hold back tears.

Ko Chen sees that, and feels guilty. But to clear away Yu Yu and Wang Fong for her, he has to do this.

Fei, sorry.

Ko Chen says that to himself while his words become meaner, “ Besides, now Yu Yu belongs to me. Even for me you’re not supposed to treat her like this.”

Yu Fei feels something in her mind explodes. Everything before her eyes becomes faint, and the only thing lingering in her mind is what Ko Chen just said.

Yu Yu now belongs to me, belongs to me…

Yu Fei is not stupid, and she knows what his words actually mean. Although she has seen so much before, she feels more shocked when Ko Chen himself admits that.

Her heart is like being pricked by thousands of needles and bleeds profusely. She is too painful to say a word.

Yu Yu doesn’t expect Ko Chen to speak for her, either. His frank words stun her. She failed to seduce him and was expelled by the bodyguard, so she thought Ko Chen hates her. But now this may be not true.

Yu Yu looks down and shows a secret smile that no one can see.
