Qiao Anlu immediately noticed him looking at her, her panicked eyes unsure of where to rest. She tugged at the blanket and realized that wasn't right, so she grabbed the apple and fruit knife from Ji Niandong's hands, "I'll peel it myself!"
She said awkwardly, then started peeling with the fruit knife. She couldn't peel properly, practically cutting chunks of skin and flesh off!
However, she did move quickly. Since Ji Niandong had already peeled most of the apple, she finished in a few strokes, presenting an apple that was miserable to behold!
She looked up and saw Ning Zesheng standing by her bedside, not daring to lift her head completely, she lowered it and was about to bite the apple in her hand. Thinking it over, she reached out and handed it over, "Mr. Ning... Ning, do you want some apple?"
She kept her head down, looking pitifully timid!
Ji Niandong suddenly remembered Ada saying that perhaps only one person in this world could keep Qiao Anlu in check—was it Ning Zesheng?
