Jared was very happy about Amber's coming back. Seeing this, Amber couldn't help smiling. "Yes, I'm back. I didn't lie to you, right?"
Jared nodded.
Amber pulled a chair to the sofa and sat down, "Can you get up now?"
"No." Jared shook his head and looked at Amber pitifully.
Amber sighed and reached out her hand. "Give me your hand."
Jared put his hand on hers.
After Amber held it, she pulled Jared up from the sofa. "Sit tight."
"Sure." Jared nodded at once.
Hearing this, Amber couldn't help caressing his head. "Jerry, I didn't expect you to be so funny when you're drunk."
"Jerry?" Jared looked at Amber in confusion.
The next second, he put on a long face. "Who is Jerry? Do you fall in love with another man?"
Jared asked loudly as if Amber cheated on him.
Amber didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What are you talking about?"
"You fall in love with another man!" Jared glared at Amber.
Amber blinked. "Which man do you think I fall in love with?"
She points to herself.
Jared pursed his thin lips with bloodshot eyes. "Jerry!"
Words failed Amber.
Jared thought she fell in love with Jerry.
Well, Jerry was Jared, so Jared was right.
Amber held her forehead. "Jared, you are such a silly head. Jerry is you."
Jared was stunned. "I'm Jerry?"
"Yes." Amber nodded.
Jared's face darkened. "You are talking nonsense. My name is Jared, not Jerry."
"'Jerry' is your nickname. It is a character from 'Tom and Jerry'." Amber rolled her eyes at Jared.
Jared finally understood.
It turned out that "Jerry" was his nickname.
Realizing this, Jared calmed down. "Why do you call me 'Jerry'? I am not that mouse."
Amber smiled and said, "Why? It's because you are as naughty as that mouse when you are drunk. Jared, I'm looking forward to what you will do after you sober up. I think you will definitely regret what you have done."
"What do you mean?" Jared couldn't figure out what Amber was talking about, so he asked in confusion.
Amber shrugged. "Forget it. It's no use explaining it to you now. Let's eat."
After Amber finished speaking, she picked up a bowl of porridge from the tray and handed it to Jared. "Take it carefully."
Amber felt as if she was taking care of a child now. She was even afraid he couldn't hold the bowl.
Jared took the bowl.
Seeing that the porridge was not spilled, Amber began to hold her own bowl.
Amber was also hungry now. She had been so worried about Jared that she skipped breakfast this morning.
Until now, Amber had starved for a long time.
Amber stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon and began to eat it in small bites.
After taking a few bites, Amber felt that Jared kept staring at her instead of eating his porridge.
Amber stopped and looked at Jared. "Why are you looking at me? Just eat your porridge."
Jared's thin lips moved, but he didn't say anything.
Amber sighed. "What's wrong? Do you mean you don't know how to use a spoon?"
Jared looked at her but remained silent.
Seeing this, Amber didn't know what to do next.
It was always very difficult to figure out what a kid was thinking.
Therefore, Amber was at a loss.
She had no idea what she should do.
Amber put down the spoon, took the bowl from Jared, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, and handed it to his mouth. "Open your mouth."
Jared opened his mouth right away.
Then, Amber fed him the porridge from the spoon.
Jared chewed and swallowed it.
