I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family
Chapter 689 - 698: You are now a walking skeletonChapter 689: Chapter 698: You are now a walking skeleton
Bai Zhi moved her lips but ultimately said nothing.
Perhaps she misunderstood, thinking his sister was his biological sister.
At that moment, Bai Zhi wanted to be like an ostrich, not thinking or asking about it.
“Thank you, how about I treat you to a facial mask some other day?”
Bai Xiang said, feeling particularly touched. She realized her words might not have been appropriate as soon as she said them.
Just when she was about to explain, Xu Yan had already nodded with a smile.
“Alright then, I’ll thank you in advance.”
Bai Xiang discovered that boys could indeed be quite receptive.
Why couldn’t men use facial masks? Perhaps there was a market for male beauty as well.
He had discussed with Bai Zhi that their future direction would be in beauty.
Xu Yan went to pack several meals, Bai Zhi said it was unnecessary, but he grinned and insisted, arguing that Han Feng would kill them. Plus, he had already paid, and he was not the type to give refunds, only food.
Bai Zhi was amused yet quickly followed him back to the hospital.
Bai Xin also brought meals, and they all gathered in the hospital cafeteria to eat together.
Kung Pao chicken, shredded pork with green peppers, Mapo tofu with two colors, and meatball soup.
Bai Xin also cooked, and now there wasn’t enough food for all of them.
“Xingxing, are you sure you don’t need to save some for Bai Fei?”
Bai Xin looked at the spread of food, mentioning that he should save some for Bai Xin as well.
“No need, she should stick to porridge.”
Bai Xiang quickly shook her head, better to stick to porridge than to induce vomiting after eating this.
“I’ve asked my uncle, and her condition is better suited for a liquid diet, my aunt needn’t worry.”
Wu Wa kept serving Bai Zhi more food, “Ah Zhi, eat more.”
Bai Zhi was somewhat helpless, she had eaten enough. “Wu Wa, you should eat more too so you can grow taller.”
Bai Zhi noticed Wu Wa had grown taller, almost as tall as herself, and likely to be even taller in the future, which was quite depressing.
“Because I obediently drink milk, Ah Zhi, you should drink some too.”
Wu Wa was quite proud, growing significantly thanks to her daily box of milk.
Bai Zhi: “…”
“Let’s not talk about milk, we’re still good friends,” Bai Zhi said, feeling particularly gloomy.
“Ha ha ha…”
Everyone burst out laughing, guessing that the milk topic was never going to end.
Bai Zhi felt even more depressed…
Only Xu Yan and Bai Fei were left in the ward.
“Senior, please have a seat, please have a seat.”
Bai Fei tried to get up to move a stool for him.
“Don’t get up, I can do it myself. Can we talk for a bit?”
Xu Yan found a stool for himself and looked at Bai Fei.
He still had that flawless face that was hard to find any imperfections in, and his lips still wore a faint smile, but Bai Fei felt like today’s senior was somewhat unfamiliar.
In fact, she didn’t even know if she ever really got to know her senior.
Their interactions were just a few encounters, and it was always the senior who helped her.
As for going to school together and hanging out, that was just her wishful thinking.
Sometimes she herself could not clearly distinguish what was real and what was added by others.
She remembered that gentle senior from her memories, that attentive senior. Was it a dream or reality?
And this current senior, even his smile carried a distance. Was he real?
“Senior you…”
Bai Fei suddenly realized that when they were alone, she was so nervous she didn’t know what to say.
“When I first met you, you were a…” Xu Yan frowned, struggling to remember. “A very cute girl, with a round little face, chubby and adorable.”
He actually did remember Bai Fei, but not vividly.
It was just a school then, and he had helped casually.
He had face blindness, something even Han Feng didn’t know about, meaning he couldn’t recognize faces, or he would forget them after meeting.
Unless he met someone daily, or if they had a very distinctive look, he might not recognize someone he ran into just yesterday today.
Because of this, back in the day, his sister had spent a lot of effort training him to interact with others with a smile, regardless of whether he recognized them or not. Politeness was never a problem.
It had taken him a month to remember Han Feng.
So Bai Fei… him remembering her past face was already pretty good.
This time, it was Bai Fei who called him first; otherwise, he might have been totally confused.
“That’s not cute, that’s fat, it’s chubby.”
Bai Fei lowered her head, speaking sadly.
She knew the senior didn’t mean to laugh at her, but she used to be fat.
“How can you speak about yourself like that?” Xu Ke frowned, a bit displeased, and looked at Bai Fei seriously.
“What fat? That’s the fat that affects your health, your level before was just right. Look at you now, I think… it’s not good-looking.”
Xu Yan pinched his chin, speaking earnestly, “Sorry, maybe I’m being too straightforward.”
Bai Fei was taken aback, feeling wronged, tears swirling in her eyes, ready to fall at any moment.
The senior actually said she looked bad now? But hadn’t she lost weight?
“But isn’t it said that being a bit slimmer is better?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan laughed. His sister had asked him the same thing back in the day, whether being slimmer was supposed to be more attractive.
“Not necessarily. You are indeed very thin now, but you look like a walking skeleton, like the White Bone Demon, you know?”
Xu Yan gestured with his hand. “Think about that feeling, it’s quite frightening.
Bai Fei, I think you are cute with a bit more flesh, and the most important thing is always our health.
Without a healthy body, everything is futile.
You are so thin now, honestly, walking next to you, I’m afraid the wind might blow you away.”
Xu Yan was not exaggerating; nowadays, Bai Fei really resembled a walking skeleton, just a framework at a glance.
Xu Yan touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“I wanted to ask you this yesterday. Do you really hate me?”
Bai Fei was stunned, “How could I…” She liked him too much, how could she possibly hate him.
“Then why do you look like you’re being tortured when you eat?” Xu Ke’s smile was somewhat forced.
“I remember the first time we ate together, I could feel a sense of happiness from you, just like seeing my sister.
She always said eating was a kind of happiness, no matter what it was, she could eat joyously. That kind of happiness you can feel.
It made the people around her happy too, and at that time, you made me feel very happy.
But yesterday, you looked like you were suffering, forcing yourself to eat. Maybe you didn’t realise. Was my cooking not tasty?”
Whether it was forced was actually obvious at a glance.
So even though Bai Fei tried hard to eat, others could feel it.
“Bai Fei, where is your sense of happiness? What is the purpose of your dieting? Can you tell me?”
“No no, not forced, the senior’s cooking was delicious.” Bai Fei began to frantically explain. “It’s my own problem. I thought being thin would be beautiful, that it would make people like me, so I desperately dieted.”
