Chapter 49 I Wanted to Tell You Something

1175 Words
He Jing was staring at the door and waiting for her lunch today, sitting alone on the seat of the table near the door of the staff canteen of the First People's Hospital. Many of her colleagues had got their staff meals and almost finished their lunch. He Jing could not accept meals cooked by others anymore since she tasted the herbal cuisine cooked by Lin Hao. Therefore, apart from reading storybooks and conducting rote learning of all kinds of fairy tales, he also needed to deliver food to the First People's Hospital. Of course, his delivery service only served He Jing. As time went by, He Jing started to have hungry growls, but she finally saw two familiar figures at the door of the canteen. "Aunty He Jing!" At the sight of He Jing, the little girl loosened the big hand of Lin Hao immediately and trotted to hug He Jing. He Jing fondled the head of the little girl with love. She started to complain in a flirting voice after Lin Hao opened the meal box and pushed it to her table, "Why are you later today than before? I almost starve to death!" "Ha-ha, we met an incident. I helped handle some troubles as a hero." Lin Hao raised his head with a distinct proud face. He Jing smiled and smelled the tasty food in the meal box. She became appetitive, "Smell delicious! What's the dish today?" "Thick beef soup. Have a taste." "OK. Delicious!" At the sight of the thick beef soup cooked by Lin Hao, He Jing ignored all things and even did not ask the details of the incident that Lin Hao helped handle some troubles as a hero, and just glutted herself with delicacies. "Eat slowly! Don't be choked!" Having seen that He Jing was satisfied with the thick beef soup cooked by himself, Lin Hao felt delightful and could not help but smile. "Well, I want to tell you something." "Um?" He Jing suddenly mumbled when eating the thick beef soup as Lin Hao was playing with little Xiyan. When Lin Hao raised his head and found there were stains of cooking oil on the mouth of He Jing, he reached his hand to wipe out them with a smile. Such an intimate action looked so normal, and had already become a habit for both people. He Jing did not feel weird about Lin Hao's action because she had met this many times before. But today, when thinking of the issue she wanted to tell Lin Hao and seeing Lin Hao wiping the stains for her, she could not help but have strong heartbeats. "What do you want to tell me?" Lin Hao had waited for the issue for a while but He Jing did not say anything. He saw He Jing blushing more badly and felt a little bit weird. He Jing was lowering her head and grasping her clothes, hesitating for a while and asking, "Are you... free tomorrow?" "I am free tomorrow. Just read storybooks, cook food and deliver it to you as before..." Lin Hao suddenly thought of something and added, "Oh, I forget that you're off tomorrow, so I need not deliver the food to you." "Shall we take Xiyan to the amusement park tomorrow, ok?" "Ok, ok! I agree with daddy!" Before He Jing responded, the little girl raised her arms and cheered up immediately. "I am sorry, Xiyan. I need to go back to my home tomorrow." He Jing said in a guilty voice after seeing the happy girl. As expected, having heard the words of He Jing, the little girl looked disappointed immediately. "Are you going to go back to your home?" Lin Hao said with his eyes shivering, "That's ok. I can only take the little girl to the amusement park by myself." "Um..." He Jing grasped her clothes tightly with her face blushing like a ripe apple. She mumbled for a while and dared not to raise her head to look at Lin Hao. Having seen that He Jing acted abnormally today, Lin Hao could not help but smile, "What on earth do you want to tell me? Is the thing so secret?" He Jing swallowed the saliva. She had worked out dozens of expressions, but still felt that those words were improper when she was about to speak out. Lin Hao and little Xiyan looked at each other and then they both turned to look at He Jing. They had lived for a long period. Although Lin Hao felt that He Jing was a timid girl, he knew that she was really forthright and would not talk in an ambiguous way. But today it was the first time that Lin Hao saw that He Jing talked so ambiguously. Stared at by them, He Jing closed her eyes and said straightly after hesitating for a while, "I want you to go back with me and have a meal with my parents!" "Ah?" Lin Hao did not completely figure out the meaning of those words. "My parents always ask me to find a boyfriend. They have planned to arrange matchmaking for me since they knew that I was going to go back home this weekend. So I lied to them that... I already had a boyfriend!" Lin Hao suddenly laughed after being in a daze for a while with his confused eyes winking. "Ha-ha, so you want me to make up the vacancy?" "Right!" He Jing nodded hard with her eyes closed, but then shook continuously. Though Lin Hao was a smart guy, he still could not figure out what He Jing was thinking about. "If... if you are not willing to do that, it's... ok..." "You would know my answer judging from my look." Li Hao said in a helpless voice deliberately, and then sighed moderately. "Ah?" However, the moment He Jing tried hard to open her eyes, she found that Lin Hao was smiling with his hand covering his mouth. Having seen the teasing face of Lin Hao, He Jing was stunned. "No problem! It's not a big deal to have a meal with your parents." When she was in a daze, Lin Hao suddenly responded. And then he added, "Well, I go back to your home with you as your boyfriend, right? Such an easy task." He Jing felt relieved somehow after Lin Hao's quick promise. The strain in her heart was loosened and her whole body got relaxed now. "Well... Thank you!" "How?" "Ah?" Lin Hao's sudden question made He Jing feel confused again. When He Jing felt awkward, Lin Hao suddenly put away the empty meal box of He Jing, and then stood up holding the little hand of Xiyan. "Ha-ha, ok, no more joking. Since I shall have a meal with uncle and aunty tomorrow, I need to buy some decent clothes for myself and gifts for your parents." "No, it's ok that you just go back with me." "Why? I am the son-in-law of your parents, and I need sufficient preparation."
