Zhan Jiuyan scooped up a spoonful of clear porridge, and Si Xia reluctantly opened his mouth to take a mouthful.

After eating less than half of it, she turned away and said, "I'm full."

Zhan Jiuyan glanced at the bowl and saw that half of it was left. Not satisfied, he took another spoonful and handed it to her mouth, "Eat some more."

"I don't want to eat it."

"..."

Zhan Jiuyan didn't say much, he just kept the same posture and looked at him.

Although he didn't speak, the meaning expressed by that look and action was obvious enough.

If you don't finish eating today, I will work here all day long. When you finish eating, you will be counted.

Si Xia was completely speechless.

If he really stayed by the bed all day, she would stop sleeping.

There was no other way, Si Xia could only force himself to open his mouth.

Slowly, Zhan Jiuyan had to feed him a small bowl of clear porridge for more than half an hour before finishing it.

The most frightening thing is that he was very patient throughout the whole process and didn't rush me a word.

After Si Xia finished eating, his eyes were swollen and he lay down.

During the whole meal, the little guy didn't even look at Zhan Jiuyan.

Now that the meal is over, I don't even bother to say a word to him.

Zhan Jiuyan accepted her defeat and stretched out his hand to straighten the quilt for her, "You have a good rest, I'm going out first."

When he walked to the door, Si Xia suddenly said dullly, "Zhan Jiuyan."

The man stopped and looked back at her, "Huh?"

"Let's... get a divorce."

After Si Xia said this, he shrank his face into the bed again, seeming a little scared.

Zhan Jiuyan narrowed his eyes dangerously.

After everything is like this, she actually wants a divorce?

The anger was ignited for a moment.

But seeing the little guy's pale face and recalling her murmurs when she had a nightmare just now, Zhan Jiuyan suppressed his anger again.

He had a sullen face and did not intend to confront her again.

When the time comes, the little guy becomes anxious and goes on a hunger strike.

"We'll talk about this after you get better."

After saying this, Zhan Jiuyan turned and left.

The door was gently closed.

Click!

The sound of the door closing was very soft, but it hit Si Xia's heart.

She curled up on the bed.

Zhan Jiuyan did not say that there was no divorce, only widowhood, as before.

Rather, he said, "We'll talk about it later."

Does this mean that he agreed?

You should have agreed, right?

Si Xia bit his lip gently.

Logically speaking, she should be cheering for this man to finally let go of such a difficult thing!

But why, at this moment, my chest feels like it is being pressed down by a big stone.

Feeling bad?

I don’t want to think about it anymore. I don’t want to think about it anymore.

After the divorce, my father was happy, and Gu Xinmei and Lu Xueyan also got their wish.

She herself can return to the peaceful days she had before.

Her father will not leave her, at least she still has a family.

With such random thoughts, Si Xia fell into a drowsy sleep.

On the other side, after Zhan Jiuyan left, a violent aura suddenly burst out from his whole body.

His face turned pale for a second.

Lu Ran, who had been standing guard at the door, saw that Zhan Jiuyan's face was not very good, and thought that Si Xia was feeling uncomfortable again.

"Master Jiu, is the young lady feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Do you want me to call Mi Sa and call her back?"

Zhan Jiuyan's eyes were gloomy, and his voice was cold and deep, "She said she wanted a divorce."

divorce?

Lu Ran's eyebrows jumped.

He hesitated for a moment and quickly comforted her, "Master Jiu, the young lady may still be angry, so she would say such negative words. Don't take it to heart."

Zhan Jiuyan recalled Si Xia's expression when he spoke just now.

Although she was weak, her tone was firm.

This time, the situation is completely different from the previous times when I was angry and talked about divorce.

This time, there was a feeling of despair.

For some reason, Zhan Jiuyan felt suffocated at the thought of Si Xia having such thoughts.

He suppressed the irritability that broke out on the spot and forced himself to calm down.

"Lu Ran."

"My subordinate is here."

"Go and investigate immediately why Si Chenggang lied to Si Xia that he was critically ill."

"yes."

"Also, find out if Lu Xueyan and her daughter have ever met Si Xia."

Zhan Jiuyan always felt that when Si Xia was talking in his sleep, his words "They are all forcing me" must have other meanings.

"Yes, I will send someone to investigate immediately."

***

Si Xia slept until the afternoon and finally recovered.

When she woke up, Mi Sa was called over by Zhan Jiuyan again and examined her.

"Sister-in-law, your fever has slowly gone down. However, after a high fever, there will be sequelae of dizziness and headache, which will take a day or two to relieve. You should rest at home these two days and don't go out to work."

Si Xia frowned, "Want to rest at home for two days? Is one day okay?"

She tried to bargain.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Jiuyan rejected it, "No discussion."

Mi Sa nodded and said seriously, "You have had a fever for two days. If you don't recover, your health will be very poor in the future."

Having said that, Si Xia could only nod.

After Zhan Jiuyan and the others went out, she called Su Zitong and asked for two days' leave.

Su Zitong said quickly, "You should rest well at home. I will take care of the work."

After hanging up the phone, Tan Yan brought over a bowl of stewed chicken soup.

Lu Ran saw this scene and took the chicken soup, "I'll do it."

He knocked on the door and said, "Madam, can I come in?"

In fact, logically, he couldn't enter Si Xia's room.

But today, he had other things to do.

Si Xia nodded, "Come in."

"This is a light chicken soup made according to the food supplement given by Mi Sa. Young Madam, please drink some while it's hot."

Si Xia still felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, but for Lu Ran's sake, she didn't have the nerve to refuse, so she took it and drank it slowly.

After drinking half of it, I couldn't drink anymore, so I put it aside.

He looked up and saw Lu Ran still standing there, "Assistant Lu, do you have something to tell me?"
