Samuel looked at the congee in the bowl, wondering how much she hated it and preferred drinking water.
"All right, just one more bite." Samuel said gently.
Ella took another spoonful of congee, finding it hard to swallow because of the taste. 'How terrible, ' she thought.
"Good. Another one. Open your mouth." Samuel said, reaching out with another spoonful of congee.
She was speechless. "Mr. Shao, leave me alone! I can take care of myself." Ella shouted at him, rolling her eyes in the process.
Ella didn't want to see him anymore because he always made her angry.
"Ella, you are in no state to be picky. Stop acting like a spoilt kid!" Samuel grinned.
Ella was dumb for a minute.
"Don't you know how old I am?" Ella said angrily. A kid? She wasn't a young child that Samuel was coddling.
Samuel smiled, "Age means nothing. You are being naughty and picky, just like a kid." He extended his arm with the spoon full of congee one more time.
Ella shook her head. She was done eating.
Samuel pretended to agree with her. What a demanding woman! He was thinking of another way to feed her the food she needed, when an idea came to his mind. Without hesitation, he decided to execute it.
He took the spoon and fed himself before setting the bowl on the table.
Ella looked at him, confused. Was he hungry? She was thinking about his intention when he hugged her and bowed his head to kiss her.
Samuel fed Ella the congee using his mouth.
This surprised her and left her speechless. She couldn't believe that Samuel had just done that. It was so disgusting!
Ella thought it was fine when lovers fed each other just like on popular TV shows, but not with congee.
Ahahah! It almost drove her crazy!
Samuel didn't release her who almost couldn't breathe until she swallowed the congee.
"Samuel! How dare you!" Ella was about to scold Samuel when he took another bite of congee, shortening the distance between them and completely ignoring her.
Ten minutes later.
Ella was forced to eat more than half the bowl of congee.
Ella was stopped in her tracks for a moment. Samuel stared at Ella, with a look of triumph. "Samuel, you can't be more disgusting, can you?" Ella said angrily. Surprisingly, she didn't feel like vomiting.
"Of course, I can, I'll show you!" She felt disgust at the thought of it. But he was determined to keep feeding
Her until she got used to it.
Samuel moved by her side and held her in his arms.
"There are many different types of food for patients and the congee is not necessary. Samuel, you did this on purpose, didn't you? What do you want?" Ella pointed at him, her voice dripping with anger.
"You're right! You caught me."
"Samuel! You ......"
Ella didn't finish her sentence because Samuel stopped her with a sweet kiss.
At the same time, he put his hand gently on her injured stomach wrapped with thick bandage, and stroked gently.
It was a long kiss giving him the chance to take in her scent. When he retreated, he spoke, "Ella, I'll be your guardian and will protect you from now on."
He swore that he would never let anyone hurt Ella, ever again.
Ella was surprised. She was moved by the love he was showing her.
