The Sweet Pursuit by Golden Autumn
Chapter 213

James chimed in, "Yeah. It could also be landlords who were knocked out by their tenants!" "Hahaha!"

Nelly could not bear with it any longer. She started laughing, so she squatted down while placing the bowl of soup on the floor. Then, she buried her head in her arms. Her entire body was quivering from laughter. If one could not hear her muffled laughter, they would have thought she was crying.

James was indeed getting somewhat hungry. Looking at the woman who was incessantly laughing, he said, "Hey. Will you bring the chicken soup over once you're done laughing? The new mother has to feed his baby right after drinking his soup!"

Thump! Nelly fell on the carpet. She was covering her face with one hand and her stomach with the other. Her stomach was cramping from laughter.

Seeing her joyful laughter, it was as if James had been infected by it. He could not help but smile and no longer felt gloomy. After a long while, Nelly ultimately stopped laughing and picked up the bowl of chicken soup. She walked up to the man and said with a smile, "Please stop joking now, or the soup will get cold!"

James looked up at her and noticed that her entire face had gone red from laughing. There were tears in her eyes. They glistened akin to obsidian stones that were washed over by the rain.

He smiled and said, "Who would've thought you're so easily entertained? Was it that funny?" Nelly was about to laugh again, but she pursed her lips. "Drink your soup first." "Aren't you going to feed me?" said James.

Nelly was somewhat embarrassed. "Can't you drink it yourself?"

"If I'm able to drink by myself, would I need you to care for me?" James chuckled at her, but he did not seem angry. "Well, if you don't feel like it, I can hire a nurse for myself."

"Not at all! I can do it!" Nelly had been feeling guilty for hurting James. He took pity on her and did not ask her to fork out the medical bills. He merely asked her to take care of him for a few days. How could she say no?

Nelly sat at the edge of the bed and held onto the spoon. She slowly fed the soup into the man's mouth,

The man was dressed in black satin pajamas, and his skin was fair from meticulously pampering Now that he was leaning against the head of the bed, there was a kind of distinguished and accomplished air to him.

His lips were very thin, so after drinking the soup, they turned rosy and seemed incredibly sexy, Nelly had never been so close to a man before, so she could not help but blush. She did not look straight at James' face and only stared at the handle of the spoon. James noticed her embarrassment and said with a smile, "The chicken soup is good."

Nelly started blushing even more. "I grew up watching my father cook, so I picked up some skills. You can tell me what you want to eat. Even if I don't know how to make it, I can learn."

"Then I've truly found the right girl!" James narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Nelly knew that that was not what he meant, but her heart could not help but skip a beat. She lowered her head and pretended nothing was wrong. Then, Nelly continued to blow on the chicken soup and fed it to the man. After finally finishing up a bowl of soup, Nelly got up immediately and said, "You should take a rest now. I'm heading out to wash the dishes. Call me if you need anything." James nodded. "Mm. Go ahead!"

Nelly walked out with her head lowered down. After she went outside the door, she took a deep breath and realized that her back was drenched from nervous sweat.

She went back into the kitchen, washed the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen. Then, James called out to her before she could catch a breather.

She hurriedly took off her apron and ran into the master bedroom. Upon entering, Nelly asked him while panting, "What's the matter?"

James looked at her and said, "I need the restroom."

Nelly was stunned for a moment, then she slowly widened her eyes.

James complained, "You're the one who fed me water, then soup. What goes in, must come out eventually."

Nelly's face slowly turned red. When they were in the hospital, James had only gone to the bathroom once. The male nurse had helped him out. She had utterly forgotten about this and thought that she only needed to cook for him. She just realized that she had to help him go to the toilet too.
