Chapter 133 Can't Hide Secretly 9
Nan Zheng didn't say much: "Okay, let's go in."
Duan Jiaxu followed behind her carrying the things, first putting his own purchases on the table and then putting down his bag.
The room was warm, so Duan Jiaxu took off his coat.
Nan Zheng: "I put the things I bought in the kitchen, come with me!"
Duan Jiaxu: "Okay."
Walking into the kitchen, Nan Zheng stood in front of him and opened the bag he was carrying.
Duan Jiaxu carried the bag in both hands, while Nan Zheng opened the refrigerator, took out some juice and yogurt from the bag, put the fruit in the refrigerator, and then closed it.
Place the other ingredients on the countertop.
Duan Jiaxu put the bag aside and rolled up his sleeves.
"I'll prepare the ingredients, you go and rest."
Nan Zheng: "I'll help you."
As he spoke, he took out some plates and bowls, preparing to serve the ingredients.
Duan Jiaxu first picked up a fish, washed it clean, and took out seasonings and cooking wine, intending to marinate it.
Nan Zheng watched him busy himself and took an apron out of the cabinet.
Do you need an apron sent to me?
Duan Jiaxu glanced at his light-colored clothes: "Okay."
I was just about to wash my hands and then put on my apron.
Nan Zheng walked behind him and put an apron on him. When she was tying the straps, her hand inevitably touched his waist.
Duan Jiaxu stiffened for a moment, and only breathed a sigh of relief after her hand left his body.
"Thank you."
Nan Zheng: "No need, you're not available right now!"
She put on an apron herself and then washed all the vegetables twice.
The two prepared the ingredients in a harmonious atmosphere, occasionally exchanging glances.
In the end, Nan Zheng cooked a few dishes, and Duan Jiaxu followed suit and cooked a few dishes as well.
Nan Zheng bought enough ingredients for the two of them to prepare three dishes each.
Six dishes and a soup, all of which are key dishes for the Chinese New Year.
Seafood, fish, and chicken are all available, along with several kinds of vegetables, a balanced mix of meat and vegetables.
Duan Jiaxu was preparing the last soup, and Nan Zheng took advantage of this time to go upstairs to take a shower and change her clothes.
After changing into a comfortable suit, Duan Jiaxu had finished his work.
Duan Jiaxu: "Now that you're down, it's time to eat."
Nan Zheng nodded, and the two sat down. After thinking for a moment, Nan Zheng stood up again and went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of juice.
As for why no wine was brought, it's because Duan Jiaxu doesn't drink.
Nan Zheng: "I'll pour you a glass of juice."
Duan Jiaxu: "Okay."
The two held their glasses, and Duan Jiaxu said, "Let's drink juice instead of alcohol, cheers, Happy New Year!"
Nan Zheng clinked glasses with him: "Happy New Year."
Duan Jiaxu: "By the way, where's your cat?"
Nan Zheng: "It doesn't live here."
Duan Jiaxu assumed the cat lived at her parents' house or on a different floor, so he didn't ask any further questions.
The two started eating, and Nan Zheng even turned on the TV and had the Spring Festival Gala playing.
Having spent a complete New Year's Eve, Duan Jiaxu looked at Nan Zheng and felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
With lights shining in every home, I'll have someone to keep me company this year.
Her eyes were slightly moist, and her gaze towards Nan Zheng grew increasingly firm.
Nan Zheng: "Eat up, try my cooking!"
Duan Jiaxu picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth to taste.
Looking at her, he said, "Your skills are amazing."
Nan Zheng: "If it's delicious, eat more."
Duan Jiaxu: "You should try making mine too, but my skills aren't as good as yours."
Nan Zheng tasted it and said, "It's good."
Duan Jiaxu was happy to hear the simple evaluation.
Duan Jiaxu: "After graduation, I plan to stay in Nanwu to work!"
Nan Zheng: "Sure."
Thinking back to the original storyline, he stayed in Yihe, which was probably related to his father, and he will likely remain in Yihe in the future.
Just as the two were finishing their meal, Duan Jiaxu's phone rang.
Duan Jiaxu picked up his phone, saw it was a call from the sanatorium, and answered it.
Duan Jiaxu: "Hello."
[Hello, are you Mr. Duan Jiaxu?]
Duan Jiaxu: "That's me."
[Your father has developed severe pulmonary edema due to a lung infection and needs to be transferred to another hospital immediately for drainage. His condition is quite urgent, so please come as soon as possible to sign the consent form.]
Duan Jiaxu: "Okay, I understand, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Duan Jiaxu looked at Nan Zheng: "I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Nan Zheng stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there."
I heard the phone call just now, and I know what's going on from the plot.
Nan Zheng continued, "It's quite a walk from the apartment complex to the gate. I'll drive you to the airport."
Duan Jiaxu was indeed anxious about the current situation.
"Thank you."
Nan Zheng: "Stop talking about this, let's go."
The two put on their clothes, grabbed their bags, and went out.
Nan Zheng picked up the keys and went to the garage to drive the car.
"boarding."
Duan Jiaxu opened the passenger door and got in.
Nan Zheng: "You book the tickets first."
Duan Jiaxu: "Okay."
Nan Zheng: "Order me one, the ID number is *****".
Duan Jiaxu looked up at her, and Nan Zheng returned his gaze with a firm look.
Duan Jiaxu's eyes warmed: "Okay."
Nan Zheng turned her head, a slight smile playing on her lips.
The two arrived at the airport and sat in the waiting room. The next flight wouldn't be boarding for a while.
Nan Zheng: "Please sit down first."
Duan Jiaxu: "Are you cold?"
Nan Zheng: "It's not cold, there's heating here."
Duan Jiaxu: "I'll go buy you a drink."
Nan Zheng: "Okay." Find him something to do so he won't overthink things.
Nan Zheng took out her phone and transferred the plane ticket money to Duan Jiaxu.
After Duan Jiaxu bought hot milk tea, his phone rang, so he took it out to look at it.
Upon seeing her transfer, Duan Jiaxu did not accept it. Although he was not wealthy, he often worked part-time and could still earn this much money.
Duan Jiaxu was already very touched that she was there for him.
I took the milk tea back and handed it to her, saying, "Warm your hands."
Nan Zheng accepted it: "Thank you."
Duan Jiaxu felt a little guilty: "It's New Year's Eve today, and I've made you run around with me everywhere."
Nan Zheng: "You'd better not overthink it. I'm fine, but I was worried something might have happened to you."
Duan Jiaxu: "Thank you."
Nan Zheng said helplessly, "You've thanked me so many times today."
Duan Jiaxu: "I don't know how to express my current feelings."
Nan Zheng: "Then don't think too much about it, just wait to board the plane."
Duan Jiaxu nodded: "Okay."
With Nan Zheng by his side, Duan Jiaxu felt a great sense of comfort.
The look in his eyes was filled with gratitude, affection, and emotion.
When the time came, the two checked in and boarded the plane, which then began its journey towards Yihe.
The two took a taxi to the hospital as soon as they got off the plane. Duan Jiaxu signed the consent form and then sat and waited for news.
Only after confirming that everything was alright did Duan Jiaxu finally relax.
Nan Zheng stayed by his side and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
Duan Jiaxu slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with vulnerability: "Can I hug you?"
Nan Zheng nodded: "Okay."
She opened her arms, and Duan Jiaxu raised his hand to hug her, gradually healing the bitterness in his heart.
I thanked her again in my heart for appearing in my life and for warming my heart.
Duan Jiaxu recovered and said, "It's getting late, I'll take you to your hotel to rest."
Nan Zheng: "Okay, you should also take care to rest."
Duan Jiaxu said he would be on night watch: "I will."
