Jiang Xixi came and left in a rather inexplicable way.
It seemed that she came just to confirm whether "Ning Anmiao" was still alive.
When she was about to leave, her words were also rather strange.
"Hey, when you go to receive the award in a couple of days, be more vigilant."
The two of them exchanged a glance but couldn't quite understand the meaning behind her words.
"Could it be that someone will still play tricks in this competition?" Ning Anmiao inferred according to her previous experience.
Lying on the hospital bed, Lu Yan's eyes were as calm as still water. "This time it's the award - giving ceremony. The rankings have already been decided."
The implication was that there couldn't be any mistakes in the rankings.
Everything had been arranged in advance. His Miaomiao couldn't be wronged a second time in the competition.
"I'll ask Assistant Song to double - check the award list." Lu Yan said in a deep voice and lowered his head to move his arm.
Ning Anmiao's body was delicate. After being soaked in the sea water, he couldn't exert any strength for a full three days.
It was only today that he had barely recovered a bit. At least he could lift his arm to eat by himself.
These days, it was Miaomiao who fed him personally. Although he enjoyed it, he still felt a bit guilty.
At lunchtime, he took the initiative to suggest, "I'll do it myself."
Hearing this, Ning Anmiao didn't force him and placed the well - served meal on the small table in front of him.
Lu Yan lifted his arm, picked up a piece of carrot with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
Just such a small action made him feel the soreness from the muscles in his arm.
After repeating this three or four times, he felt that he couldn't take it anymore. His arm was trembling slightly and he could hardly hold the chopsticks.
He had no choice but to give up and stared longingly at the food in front of him.
The food smelled good, but unfortunately he could only look at it and there was nothing he could do.
Ning Anmiao beside him also noticed this. She wasn't in a hurry. She deliberately pretended not to see and slowly turned around to start eating.
There was no sound in the ward for quite a while.
After Miaomiao finished eating and casually picked up a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth, there came a sigh from the bed.
Ning Anmiao couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.
"Shall I feed you?" she asked casually as if it didn't matter.
Lu Yan didn't answer immediately. He tightened his face and stared fixedly at the bowl of rice in front of him.
In his life, he had never felt so aggrieved.
Seeing that he didn't say a word, Ning Anmiao didn't argue with him. She picked up Lu Yan's spoon again. "Hurry up and eat. If the food gets cold and you eat it, you'll get a stomachache again."
"This body is my capital. If you don't know how to take good care of it, I can't just sit back and watch."
Saying so, Ning Anmiao started to feed Lu Yan patiently and carefully mouthful by mouthful, just like in the previous few days.
Lu Yan quietly looked at Ning Anmiao in front of him. His eyes deepened, filled with a special kind of affection.
"Miaomiao."
During the meal, Lu Yan cleared his throat and said in a gentle voice, "What kind of marriage do you want?"
It was the first time he had asked her such a question.
Ning Anmiao suddenly looked up.
She felt that Lu Yan's eyes were a bit hot. She subconsciously shifted her gaze and deliberately didn't want to answer this question. "I haven't thought about it. It doesn't matter."
Lu Yan could tell that she was deliberately avoiding the question, but his gaze still stayed on her face. "Since you haven't thought about it, think about it now."
"I don't mean anything else. I just want to hear your understanding of a perfect marriage."
Ning Anmiao held her breath.
Her understanding of a perfect marriage?
Ning Anmiao took a deep breath, closed her eyes and thought for a while. "A house, two people, three meals, and four seasons."
"Be more detailed."
"..." Ning Anmiao scratched her head and felt a bit embarrassed for a moment.
"I hope to understand and care about my other half, to know each other's hearts, to understand each other's attitudes and thoughts, and to stay together and know each other for a lifetime."
Her expression was extremely serious. "If we can't understand each other, it's no different from a soulless body."
After all, the two of them were going to spend a lifetime together.
If their hearts were far apart, even if they had the most intimate relationship, they would just be fixed companions.
They couldn't be called a real couple.
Let alone a perfect marriage.
A hint of solemnity flashed through Lu Yan's eyes and then disappeared quickly.
"Then, how can we know each other's hearts?" Lu Yan asked sincerely in a soft voice.
The Lu Yan who was decisive and ruthless in the business world now seemed like a child asking for advice humbly.
Ning Anmiao paused and hesitated before saying, "Actually, I don't know either. But I think the most important thing should be to be brave enough to speak out."
There are no two identical leaves in the world, so there are no two identical people.
Everyone is born different. Even we ourselves can't fully understand ourselves, let alone completely understand another person?
Therefore, communication is even more important.
In a relationship, when a man and a woman are in love, they always like to let the other person guess why they are happy or angry.
This is actually very difficult.
If it's a love expert who has been through many relationships, perhaps they can judge the other person's heart according to their previous experience.
But Lu Yan is not.
In terms of love, Lu Yan is as pure as can be.
So Miaomiao is like a difficult problem that he needs to overcome in his life.
Seeing Lu Yan silent, Ning Anmiao explained, "Take the two of us for example. You rarely express your attitude and opinions, and you rarely comment on my words and deeds."
"At first, I couldn't figure out what you were thinking. Later, I thought you didn't care, so you wouldn't even spare a thought for these things."
Ning Anmiao lowered her head and felt a bit aggrieved when she said this.
Most of the time, she felt like a ghost at home. None of her actions could affect Lu Yan.
"I understand." Lu Yan nodded slightly. He roughly understood what Ning Anmiao meant.
He usually neglected to care and communicate, which made Miaomiao have the illusion that "he didn't care about her at all", and that's why she was sad.
Lu Yan opened his mouth but said nothing.
"Look, just like now." Ning Anmiao saw that he wanted to say something and summoned up her courage to say loudly, "You don't say anything because you think those things are unimportant."
This was like accusing him instead.
Lu Yan shifted his gaze and looked at the pouting Ning Anmiao. A smile flashed across his face.
Miaomiao cared about him, so she was so eager to know what he wanted to say.
Lu Yan looked at her for a while, smiled faintly and pulled up a medical report on his phone.
The content on it made Ning Anmiao tighten her palms.
