Chapter 511: Hibiscus Soup
How could he waste half a day searching for her in the entire city? He could even find her quickly and accurately.
Wasn’t this love and concern?
“Yes, Xiao Lin has a good appetite today. Drink more!” Auntie Zhang was very happy.
As she drank, Chen Lin suddenly stopped.
This was clearly the smell she was most familiar with and liked. It was the Three Fresh Hibiscus Soup!!!
It was something Huo Tian often made when he took care of her!
Seeing her suddenly stop after a few sips, Auntie Zhang was a little nervous. She leaned forward and asked, “Xiao Lin, why aren’t you drinking anymore? Is it bad?”
Chen Lin looked at Auntie Zhang suspiciously and said, “Auntie Zhang, did you make this soup?”
Auntie Zhang’s expression suddenly became unnatural. She paused and continued, “Yes, yes. Of course, I made it. Don’t you like it?”
“It’s nothing. Auntie Zhang, can you tell me the method?” Chen Lin clearly did not believe her as she tilted her head and asked.
Auntie Zhang hesitated. The three delicacies used in the Three Fresh Hibiscus Soup were all high-grade ingredients. They were either abalones or blue dragons. The cooking process was even more difficult. She had really not done it before. As someone from an ordinary family, she had only done the common version.
Seeing her reaction, Chen Lin asked, “Auntie Zhang, President Huo did this, right?”
Seeing that she had already discovered it, Auntie Zhang pursed her lips and her heart sank. She said affirmatively, “Xiao Lin, it’s not that Auntie Zhang wants to hide it. I’m just afraid that you’ll fall into it again and hurt yourself. This soup… is indeed prepared by Xiao Tian every day and sent downstairs.”
Chen Lin’s eyes suddenly lit up as she shouted, “Really? Auntie Zhang, tell me. Did he really do it? I won’t let my thoughts run wild. I just want to know the truth!”
Auntie Zhang sighed and nodded. “He made it. This soup is difficult to make, and Auntie Zhang doesn’t know how to cook it, but he said you liked it, so he bought the ingredients personally every day and sent them over after they were done. He even specially instructed me not to tell you.”
When Chen Lin heard this, she was surprised and heartbroken.
She glanced at the lunch boxes on the cabinet and said, “In that case, he’s been working so hard every day recently. He made me food and sent it over, but I didn’t eat it?”
Auntie Zhang instantly nodded.
A strong sense of guilt surged into Chen Lin’s heart. She had let Huo Tian down.
He was so busy and even cooked for her every day. She had wasted so much effort!
At the same time, the joy and happiness in her heart could not help but float to her face.
Through Auntie Zhang’s reaction and words today, she was once again convinced that Huo Tian had her in his heart.
Furthermore, she felt that this was love between a man and a woman. There was definitely no mistake!
Otherwise, what kind of sibling relationship or friendship could drive a person to give so much care and concern to another person?
She did not believe it!
Thinking of this, Chen Lin’s eyes shone.
No! Auntie Zhang was right earlier. She could not give up on herself like this. Huo Tian loved her, and she had to fight for him!
Although Huo Tian was so heartless, this heartlessness must be because he had not recognized his heart yet. He must think that she was a child and could not delay her.
However, no matter what, their relationship was there. It was useless for Huo Tian to deny it!
Even if their relationship was not good, Auntie Zhang had said that feelings could be nurtured. As long as she could grab all the opportunities, how could a responsible person like Huo Tian not be tempted?
With this in mind, Chen Lin made up her mind.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that her appetite was good. Chen Lin held the soup and drank it forcefully.
Auntie Zhang smiled and shook her head, feeling that her decision was right. When she made Chen Lin happy, she was indeed in a much better state.
However, as she drank, an idea appeared in Chen Lin’s mind.
“Xiao Lin, drink slowly. Don’t choke.” Auntie Zhang looked at her wolfing down the food and was a little worried.
“Auntie Zhang, this soup is too good. I haven’t eaten for a few days. I’m hungry!” Chen Lin replied happily.
She was right. She had not eaten for a few days, so what was this appetite?
Soon, the lunch box was empty.
Chen Lin’s eyes darted around as she took the opportunity to say, “Auntie Zhang, I think what you said today makes sense. I have to take care of my body to have the chance to be with President Huo. Even if I can’t be with him, as long as I live well, I can still meet my Prince Charming. I can’t be hung up on him, right?”
