Chu Ningyi walked over and grabbed Shui Anluo’s wrist, pulling her to her feet. “You should eat something first, you haven’t eaten anything all day,” he said in a deep voice.
Shui Anluo staggered a little as she was pulled to her feet before she headed to the desk.
Maid Yu grinned as she watched this and sneakily pulled her phone out again. Maid Yu’s current favorite pastime was to take pictures of them especially when both of them were together. Even though their interactions have always been awkward, there was a warmth in the pictures that was obvious to other people.
Chu Ningyi led Shui Anluo to her seat and opened the lunchboxes to find four dishes and soup inside. Maid Yu has always been fair. Two of the dishes were Shui Anluo’s favorite and the other two were Chu Ningyi’s favorite. This would prevent them from fighting over the food.
Shui Anluo took one bite and looked at the sleeping little darling.
Chu Ningyi turned her head over to him and said, “Eat properly.”
Shui Anluo’s head was turned at a 90-degree angle. She glared angrily at him once again before she looked down to eat her food. “Aren’t things busy at your company? Why must you stay here all the time?”
In the past, he would always make other plans whenever she wanted to see him during the weekend. However, he had actually stayed at the hospital for several days this time when the little baby was sick. He even had video call meetings for work or had his secretary send the documents over.
‘Are you chasing me away?’
This was Chu Ningyi’s first reflex.
“The patient is my son. How can you even object to me taking care of my son?” Chu Ningyi coldly replied.
Shui Anluo automatically turned her head away and curled her lips, expressing her disdain towards Chu Ningyi. Was that an appropriate reaction for the wildly handsome director? Should he not have thrown a few million dollars around to hire some internationally renowned doctor to treat his son?
‘Director Chu, others must not be aware of how personal you are in your son’s care!’
“What are you grumbling about?” Chu Ningyi asked with a frown.
Shui Anluo immediately changed her grumbling disdainful face to a normal one. She grinned and turned back to him. “It’s nothing, I just think that you should make some money for your son’s milk powder, Director Chu.”
Perhaps it was due to the little darling’s slight recovery but Shui Anluo was in a much better mood. She even had the capacity to joke with him.
Chu Ningyi raised his brow and stared at her. “I’d like to talk to you about your internship.”
Shui Anluo’s heart thumped. Her internship had never crossed her mind during the past few days when she was busy taking care of the little darling. However, she would not be able to graduate without completing her internship.
“I had applied for leave,” Shui Anluo moaned. Even though Lin Qianchen had not approved it, Shui Anluo felt that she had done it on purpose.
“I contacted your specialized course lecturer yesterday.”
Chu Ningyi spoke calmly but Shui Anluo immediately buried her head into her bowl of rice as if she already knew what he was going to say. Even though she really wanted to ask him why he had contacted her lecturer, his reply would end the game for her so she did not dare to ask any questions.
“Doctors are tasked with saving lives, do you think you can do that?” Chu Ningyi asked as his tone became even more stern.
‘Can I do it?’
Shui Anluo pursed her lips. She was actually more inclined towards medical research on cardiology. Like Qiao Yaruan had said, she was a person with fake skills who would not be practicing.
“Shui Anluo, lift your head up and look at me.” Chu Ningyi put his chopsticks down and held her shoulders. He then forced her to look at him.
Shui Anluo lifted her head and puffed her cheeks out as she looked at him. He was the one who had made her look so she would simply look at him like that.
