Chow scoffed. "You're definitely a lot of trouble," he said. "It seems like I'm going to have to arrange for more servants in this place if I don't want to keep bringing your dinner up for you."
Hearing his words, Vivian's face turned red again. She buried her face in the blankets.
Was it going to continue being like this?
She didn't think that she would ever get used to it.
Since Aunt Blaine had already prepared the meal, it wasn't long before Chow came back with a tray of food.
While Chow was out, Vivian wrapped herself up securely in her sleeping gown. She felt more at ease facing him like this.
Even so, the marks he left in his body were still so obvious. Vivian tensed up when Chow waltzed into the room.
Chow placed the tray on the table and looked at Vivian as he gestured towards the plates. "Take them out yourself."
Vivian had managed to regain a bit of strength after resting for a while. She was still capable of taking out the dishes and setting them down on the table.
Thus, under Chow's watchful eye, she quickly set out the dishes one by one.
There was only one chair at the study table. Vivian sat in that chair as she arranged the dishes neatly on the table.
However, it was only after arranging the dishes that she realised Chow was still standing by her side.
She looked at the dishes and saw that the portion was for two. Chow was going to eat with her as well. She got up rather awkwardly and offered Chow her seat. "Brother Chow, you can sit here."
Chow raised an eyebrow and sat on the chair. Then, he pulled Vivian into his lap.
Vivian was shocked. She automatically tried to stand up but Chow just hugged her waist tightly.
"Brother Chow!" Vivian exclaimed.
Chow held her against his body and replied nonchalantly. "Let's just eat like this."
Vivian held her breath. "It's rather awkward," she said in a low voice.
Chow leaned back and pressed his chest against her back. "Hmm, you're right. It's a little uncomfortable to eat like this."
He reached for his fork but quickly put it back. Then, he leaned down to speak in Vivian's ear. "Since I fed you yesterday, don't you think that it's time for you to return the favour today?"
"W-What?" Vivian widened her eyes in surprise.
Chow's eyes narrowed slightly. He lowered his head and kissed her lips before raising his head again to look at her. "I said, feed me."
Vivian wondered how a twenty-something-year-old man like him could request such a thing from her so calmly without turning red from embarrassment. She was quite impressed with his shamelessness.
However, she made sure to keep her mouth shut about it. Letting out a thin-lipped smile, Vivian pierced a cut of roast beef with her fork and fed it to Chow's mouth.
Chow lowered his head and took the beef into his mouth. Then, he fed himself a bite of potatoes using another fork.
Vivian blushed and fed herself a tomato with the same fork she used to feed the beef to him. She never thought the day would come when she would share a utensil with Chow during a meal. It was rather sweet and romantic for her.
However, she didn't let herself indulge in the sweetness for too long.
