Upon hearing Ye Xi's response, Minal instantly felt happy.
She carried the fruits closer to Ye Xi and saw him sitting by the bedside, now holding and petting a little orange kitten. Minal carefully approached him...
About half a meter away, she slowly sat down on his bed.
Ye Xi glanced at her, and upon meeting his gaze, Minal belatedly asked, "May I sit here?"
"Mm." Ye Xi replied mildly, naturally not refusing her.
To be honest, during those days he was hospitalized around Spring Festival, it was Minal who constantly stayed by his side and cared for him.
She often sat on Ye Xi's hospital bed; this behavior was something she performed quite naturally.
So natural that Ye Xi didn't need to say anything, and she would just sit like this of her own accord.
That's why, even as she sat on Ye Xi's bed uninvited now, Ye Xi wouldn't utter a single word.
Once is a start, twice makes a habit, thrice establishes a norm...
Ye Xi understood this principle.
"Here, the fruit is for you."
