Miss Chai sent a long message to the fans today about ShengShi which I will post in the next chapter .

**********************

The Taxi pulled up in front of Yuan Zong's company. The guard gave a friendly wave in Xia Yao's direction.

As he walked down the lengthy entrance, witnessing willow leaves cutting the dim light inside the training rooms into hundreds of pieces, emotions Xia Yao thought he'd banished came back with a vengeance.

Yuan Zong had not left yet, somehow, he'd unconsciously waited for Xia Yao, the only thing was, never in his wildest dreams would he have expected Xia Yao to appear before him like this. Seeing the plaster cast, Yuan Zong's usual cold expression couldn't help but show a hint of agony. Having been through many years fighting in the front line, injuries were like daily meals to Yuan Zong, big and small alike; even a bullet scraping his bones could only make him cringe, but never have there been an injury which has the power to almost bring Yuan Zong to his knees like this one. Maybe that was why his reply was delayed, "What's wrong?"

Xia Yao shrugged it off, "Broke it while we were chasing a criminal."

It was the same nonchalant tone Xia Yao used with his colleagues, but when he said these words to Yuan Zong, the feelings were totally different, as was the same with the desired response.

Yuan Zong didn't utter a word, rather, he dragged Xia Yao inside by the nape.

"What did you make today?" Xia Yao asked.

Yuan Zong intentionally glowered, "We're out of food."

"What do you mean "out"? I only arrived a little late? You really didn't leave me any?"

Yuan Zong glared at Xia Yao, "You broke your arm, why do I have to save you anything?"

Xia Yao became frustrated, "It's not like I did it on purpose! The situation was most dire..."

"Fine!" Yuan Zong cut in, "be a good boy and stay put, I'll bring out the food."

Xia Yao was awfully hungry, he could have tried to find something outside the hospital like Xiao Hui, but he'd deemed it too bothersome. So

Xia Yao remained hungry till now, so much so that he couldn't help following Yuan Zong into the kitchen, wagging his invisible tail behind, "Hey, I'm injured, okay? I can't use chopsticks, so cool something that I can easily eat with a spoon. Oh yeah, what's today's main dish?"

"Spaghetti."

Spaghetti...Xia Yao frowned, "There's nothing else?"

"None."

Mince pork in exquisite sauce, topped with birds eggs, each noodle was a piece of art in itself... Yuan Zong made Xia Yao a full bowl, and then, to Xia Yao's surprise, he used chopsticks to pick up some spaghetti, holding it up to Xia Yao's mouth.

"Eat."

Xia Yao immediately showed an offended expression, "I don't need you to feed me, I can still use my left hand."

"If you don't eat, then I will." Yuan Zong picked up the noodles, pretending to put it in his mouth.

"Wait wait wait, I'll eat it!"

Xia Yao was actually starving, so he didn't care anymore and let Yuan Zong spoon feed him. Yuan Zong's feeding speed was really good, it felt like he had gone through special training, bite after bite, accurately and timely. Xia Yao was embarrassed at first, but he gradually got used to it and started to babble.

"You don't know how dangerous the situation was, Zhang Tian, my colleague, his face was slashed from here to here..."

All the light in the building was turned off, there was only one room with warm faint light. The delicious smell from the food floating through the windows, together with the chatting noise, indicated the silence of the night. Xia Yao crossed his legs, talking nonstop. Yuan Zong kept feeding him, eyeing him attentively.

Xia Yao sucked the noodle which Yuan Zong fed and asked, "Why don't you eat?"

Yuan Zong calmly said, "I've eaten already."

Actually, it was more like Yuan Zong could barely swallow water looking at Xia Yao's condition.

"You didn't wait for me!" Xia Yao kicked Yuan Zong's knee.

Having said that, Xia Yao felt startled himself, and suddenly couldn't understand his own thought. Why did Yuan Zong have to wait for me? Why do I want Yuan Zong to wait? Isn't it just a meal? Why so troublesome?

Yuan Zong asked Xia Yao, "Wanna eat more?"

Xia Yao nodded his head, "Yes, one more please."

"You have already eaten two bowls of spaghetti." Yuan Zong warned Xia Yao, "Eating too much for dinner is not good for your digestion."

"It's okay, I used much physical strength during day, eating one more bowl won't be a problem."

And these two just get cuter by the second! >_< Dear god, Yuan Zong is just so damn perfect, I love it how he hurts so much just by looking at Xia Yao's injuries :3.
