Auntie Wu cooked well. Hence, Rosiley was unable to control herself, devouring two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup.
In the end, she could feel the food rising to the top of her throat, and she felt that she would throw up at any moment.
She walked out of the dining hall with difficulty. Seeing that she was walking forth slowly like a pregnant lady with her hands on her waist, Sachin laughed and shook his head helplessly.
He entered the kitchen and walked out after a long while with a in his hands.
In the living room, Rosiley lay on the sofa like a dead woman, her face full of dread and regret.
Her stomach was about to explode and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Hence, she didn’t care about her image and decided to lie on the sofa forever.
When Sachin saw that scene, he walked over and chuckled helplessly. He walked over and passed his to her. “This is hawthorn tea, it can help you with digestion.”
Receiving the, she lifted her eyes to look at him. Touched, she expressed herself. “Sachin, you are so nice.”
How could she not fall in love with him since he had been so meticulous and gentle?
Sachin chuckled gently and didn’t reply.
With her heart full of affect, she drank the entire cup of hawthorn tea, which was torturous to her because she was already extremely full. However, she dared not reject his concern for her!
Hence, she decided to be harsh to herself. Anyway, hawthorn did aid in her digestion.
After she finished drinking, she handed them to Sachin as he comforted her gently. “Rest for a while. I’ll bring you to walk around later.”
Rosiley smiled gently. “All right.”
Sachin caressed her hair gently before returning the empty to the kitchen.
As she stared at his long and slender figure, her gaze became gentler.
She couldn’t help thinking about their future when they both aged. Would he still be willing to prepare a of hawthorn tea for her?
Thinking of that made her chuckle, for it did seem to be an eternity away. She assured herself that the most important thing would be to treasure herself and to treasure what she had.
On the evening the following day, Corey reported the daily schedule of Old Chen to his sister-in-law.
Rosiley briefly looked through it and asked him, “Is this the schedule for a particular day? Or is it a schedule for every day?”
“The other elder of the community told me that Old Chen does the same thing every day, as long as the weather is good.”
Corey felt uneasy when he thought about the awkward encounters with the other elderly person. Hence he said, “sister-in-law, please don’t make me do such a thing again.”
“Why?”
Rosiley didn’t raise up her head, for she was still closely examining the report.
“Because… it was terrifying.”
“Terrifying?!” Rosiley raised her head and looked at him with confusion. “How was it terrifying?”
How could it be terrifying just for him to find out Old Chen’s daily schedule?
“Because… because…” Corey was at a loss of words. After a long pause of silence, he replied sheepishly, “It was indeed terrifying.”
Rosiley was puzzled. “That answered nothing.”
Corey sighed heavily. “sister-in-law, do you know how terrifying elderly people are? Especially those who have an unmarried daughter or granddaughter.”
Rosiley immediately understood what he meant. “Why? Are you being interrogated by them about your family background, or even about what color of underwear you like to wear?”
