The doctor checked the body, prescribed medicine, and asked them to go home and keep warm. Then the two of them walked out.
After taking a taxi back to Yuxiuyuan, Ning Meng quickly changed her clothes. When she came out again, she saw steam coming out of the kitchen.
Huo Beichen was wearing her unique little floral apron and was boiling brown sugar and ginger water in a pot. The smell of ginger wafted out before it even entered.
Ning Meng covered her nose, leaned against the door, and shouted: "Brother, stop cooking. I don't eat ginger."
The man held the spoon and ignored her. The hot steam steamed around him, making his handsome features a little more misty.
The word "brother" made Huo Beichen slightly stiff.
With a bit of a smile in his eyes, he took a bowl from the side and poured out the ginger-brown sugar water. After filtering, no shredded ginger could be seen in the bowl, and then he took it out.
When he went out, he held Ning Meng with his other hand and brought her to the sofa. He also brought her a blanket and covered her legs. After waiting for a while, the brown sugar water was no longer so hot, and then handed it to her.
, ordered: "Drink it."
Ning Meng: “…”
She frowned.
She is usually a tomboy, but today she wanted to be "pretentious", so she said: "I don't want to drink."
The man held the bowl and said in a low voice: "Call me brother again."
Ning Meng: “…”
Anyway, she had shouted several times, so it didn’t matter, she just shouted: “Brother.”
The man expressed his satisfaction and rubbed her head: "Good boy, I'll call you like this from now on."
Ning Meng: "...can I stop drinking?"
The man chuckled: "No."
"...??"
Then why do you want me to call you brother?
Just as Ning Meng was about to explode, the man suddenly leaned forward and threatened: "Are you going to drink it yourself? Or will your brother feed you one bite at a time?"
Ning Meng: “…………”
The words became more ambiguous the more she heard them, which made her face heat up. Ning Meng didn't say anything, picked up the bowl and drank it all in one go. When she put the bowl down, she seemed to vaguely see a hint of regret on the man's face.

"So, Mr. Huo took care of you for three days?"
Three days later, Ning Meng was alive and kicking. She finally escaped from Huo Beichen's clutches and regained her life. After he left and went to work, she had the opportunity to call Zhen Shanmei.
Ning Meng nodded: "Yes, you said he didn't pursue what my dad said about covering up, forget it, why are you so considerate and considerate to me..."
Zhen Shanmei: "Stop! I seriously doubt that you are showing affection."
Ning Meng smiled and packed her luggage: "No need to doubt it, I hope you can scold me three times a day from now on."
"Which three sentences?"
Ning Meng said one by one: "The first sentence, why are you as thin as a ghost? The second sentence, isn't it just that you married a good husband? What's the point of showing off? The third sentence, how many stinkers are there?"
"...It's so shameless."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Zhen Shanmei spoke again: "Do you really want to go to Shanghai with the young movie queen? I want to go too~ It's a pity that my dad won't give me money!"
After saying this, I heard Father Zhen yelling angrily: "I spend all day long, do you know how difficult it is to make money now?"
Zhen Shanmei whispered: "Why don't you know? Every time I ask you for money, I have to listen to your lesson."
Ning Meng: “…………”
She twitched the corner of her mouth: "You want me to pay for it!"
Zhen Shanmei said coquettishly: "I won't go. Money is a trivial matter. In fact, it was my father who arranged a blind date for me."
