"Sorry, I just went to replenish the ice pack. Have you been awake for a long time?"

"No, I just woke up not long ago..."

Yinglili replied reflexively at first, then reacted and asked hurriedly: "Um, Hui, what is going on...?"

The voice was slightly hoarse.

Hui looked calm about this, as if he had already guessed her reaction, and spoke.

"How should I put it? Because I came back later, I can't be too specific. Basically, you were sick, and then Yusuke and the health teacher brought you back."

"...will you always take care of me from now on?"

"Well, although that's true, ah, it was actually Yusuke who was accompanying you before I came back, and I took over after that."

"This, that's it, thank you...I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"No, I did this voluntarily. Also, can I put an ice pack on it?"

"Um, um, sorry to trouble you."

When Yingli agreed, Hui reached out and took the ice pack from the tray and placed it on her forehead.

"Good ice!?"

"Hmm...should I add a towel?"

"No, that's fine. It's cool and comfortable. Thank you, Hui."

"You're welcome. I just borrowed the kitchen here to cook some porridge. Do you have an appetite now? Yinglili."

"Hey, what Hui cooked...?"

"Well, that's right."

After hearing this, Yinglili blinked her eyes repeatedly and instinctively looked towards the bedside table, only then did she notice the small casserole placed on it.

A faint wisp of fragrance drifted into the nose.

She couldn't help but take a breath, and a feeling of hunger suddenly surged in her belly, so she said, "Well! I'm really a little hungry, so I want to eat."

In this way, Hui then helped her up from the bed considerately, put a pillow on the edge of the bed for her to lean on comfortably, and then opened the lid of the casserole.

A richer rice fragrance filled the air, mixed with a slight sweetness.

There is white porridge with prunes in the pot.

Probably considering the burden on the stomach, the porridge is relatively thin and steamy on top.

After serving the porridge in an orderly manner, Hui handed over the bowl and spoon.

"Please use it, be careful of burning it?"

"Yeah~Thank you!"

Ying Lili took the bowl, blew gently on it, and stared inside.

Chopped prunes are scattered in the porridge, and the red pulp is lightly mixed in the milky white rice soup, which is full of aroma.

After stirring twice with a spoon, Yinglili scooped up a spoonful of porridge and put it into her mouth eagerly.

The sticky porridge flavor spreads on the tongue, and the soft sweet and sour taste of the prunes stimulates the appetite, forming a wonderful balance with the slightly salty taste of the porridge.

After swallowing it in one gulp, your entire mouth and stomach will feel very mild.

"It's delicious~ Megumi."

Ying Lili couldn't help but pursed her lips, licked the soup on her lips with the tip of her tongue, and admired sincerely.

"Thank you for the compliment, I hope you like it~"

Hui Wei responded with a smile, her expression softened, and then she took out her mobile phone from her pocket as if she had remembered something.

"By the way, Yusuke also told me to take some photos of the top of the mountain. Are you interested in seeing them? Eri-ri."

"Yusuke said that?"

Ying Lili, who was enjoying her meal, raised her head in surprise and turned her head slightly, "Although it's not that I'm not interested, but why?"

"Well, if you want to say it, I think he probably thought that you couldn't go up, so this will make you happy, right?"

After three or four seconds.

"...What, that kind of self-righteous thought."

"Otherwise, do you want to take a look?"

"Since Huidu said so... I'll just take a look. Isn't it because of him?"

"Well, what kind of expression should I make here...?"

"Because, when you show photos to people who can't participate in hiking activities, it feels like showing off, right? How on earth do you come up with such an idea that makes people speechless?"

"That's it, um~ that's what you said, then forget it."

"Huh??"

"What's wrong?"

"Ah, no...I wasn't talking about you just now, Megumi! And I happen to be a little bored right now, so let's watch it together, okay?"

Seeing Erili who was hurriedly defending in front of her, with a hint of regret and trepidation, some subtle emotions emerged in Hui's heart, and she finally nodded lightly.

Next, the two of them looked at the photos together.

On the top of the mountain is a large lake, with ripples on the dark water and many bright red maple leaves floating on it.

There is a huge natural rock next to the lake. Students and teachers sit on it to rest. There are also active men and women who go to the lake to soak their feet.

Eiri, whose appetite was stimulated by Hui's craftsmanship, filled another bowl of porridge and stared at the photo intently while eating. Her pure sapphire eyes shone slightly, revealing longing.

Even Hui, who is also a girl, found that look cute and explained the scene to her carefully.

"I always feel that this kind of dark lake has an annoying feeling, as if there is a monster hiding in it."

"Ah~ Well, it seems that it does feel a little bit like this."

"Right? Do you think there will be a Loch Ness Monster living in there? Megumi."

"Well, even if you ask me so seriously... the Loch Ness Monster is a British legend? Regardless of whether that monster exists, at least I don't think it will appear in Japan ~ Eiri."

"Can these photos be sent to me? Megumi."

"Yeah, no problem, Yinglili."

"Thank you~~~!"

"You're welcome~"

Before I knew it, the pot of porridge was quickly finished.

It seems that because this discussion consumed a lot of energy, Yinglili, whose body has not yet recovered, fell asleep again after taking the medicine.

Hui quietly packed up the tray and left.
