Finn Chen shook his head slightly.
He didn't expect that Gloria Lin and Raina Tang would be so thick-skinned.
But it's Leah's house--nothing to do with him; he would not like to get involved.
Then Grant and Leah left, and Finn stayed in the hospital to take care of Maura.
They had no word the whole night.
Early the next morning, Grant and Leah came to the hospital.
Finn was about to have a rest home, but then he thought of Suzie Wang and Wendy. They were in hospital as well.
He came to Suzie's ward then.
Finn saw Wendy sitting in the corner and eating a bun slowly as soon as he entered the ward.
It seemed that the bun was a little hard--Wendy had to consume that with water.
Seeing this, Finn sighed deeply. When he met Wendy yesterday, Finn was surprised at her complexion. Now he understood why she's so thin and sickly in appearance.
It's chronic malnutrition--she kept eating buns alone all the time.
Wendy was like a panicked rabbit when she saw Finn. She stood up in a hurry and hid the bun silently, then greeting, "Hey, you. What's up? "
Finn smiled slightly, "Are you just eating a bun for breakfast?"
"Yeah," Wendy nodded with embarrassment, and then asked, "Um, have you had your breakfast?"
"No, I'm going to," Finn shook his head and demanded, "You wanna join me?"
"No, I, I'm eating my breakfast," Wendy hurriedly shook her head, her pretty face flushed.
"A bun can't even count as breakfast. Come with me," Finn smiled slightly.
Wendy wanted to say no again. But Finn motioned for her to follow him.
Then Finn led her into a snack pub.
"Excuse me. We'd like five servings of steamed buns(a Chinese food)."
"Five? I'm afraid we'd waste some," Wendy murmured.
"No worries. There are two of us. Fill your stomach," Finn smiled. He took Wendy out in a bid to build up her health. Otherwise, she would suffer severe anemia in less than one month.
"Okay. I will," Wendy replied slightly, lowering her head.
Soon, the delicious steamed buns were served. Finn poured a dish of sauce and handed it to Wendy, "Help yourself."
Wendy nodded slightly, picked up a bun, and took a bite.
After a while, Finn finished two servings.
But Wendy only ate three.
