The sunset light projected in from outside the window frame of the ward, spreading obliquely on the ground of the terrazzo, creating square spots. The warm tone gave people a feeling of happiness and sweetness, just like an angel singing and descending.

Then, the angel came.

The door of the caregiver opened with a creaking sound, and a light yellow figure floated in gently. The light-colored flat-soled pointed shoes stepped on the ground paved with terrazzo, making a light clatter.

Xiaokui came in. Her bangs were combed flat, and her brown shawl hair was spread out at the ends of the hair forked, two hanging on her chest, and more were draped behind her head. The three-dimensional tailored light yellow wedding dress skirt was shaped with the corners, the top was shaped with fish bones, the high waist and sleeveless, and the one-shoulder paired with a strapless breast looked so simple and sweet. When she walked towards me, I felt like a ball of soft cotton candy.

This is the first time I saw Xiao Kui wearing the Huanglong in the wish-locking yellow dragon. Until I saw her look after she put it on, I felt that this designer was really a genius. This wedding dress was completely tailored for Xiao Kui, and it was extremely consistent with Xiao Kui's body shape and did not show any unconventionality.

"Xiao Kui..." I looked at her weakly.

Xiao Kui walked to me, she stood there quietly, looking at me without saying anything. After a while, she walked to my bed, nodded to the military doctor, stretched out her wrist, and the military doctor nodded understandingly, wiped the alcohol on Xiao Kui's wrist and took out the syringe and needle from the micro-syringe pump. The needle was inserted into Xiao Kui's wrist. Xiao Kui frowned slightly, and blood flowed out along her snow-white wrist, flowed into the syringe on the micro-syringe pump along the extension infusion tube, and then flowed out from another infusion tube and into my body.

Xiaokui sat on the chair beside my bed and looked at me without saying a word.

"I want to talk to him alone." Xiao Kui said to the military doctor.

"But the infusion device needs to be manually cut off," said the military doctor.

"It won't work for a while?" Xiaokui said.

"Okay, then I will set the automatic valve shutdown function to slow down the infusion speed, and the infusion will stop automatically after booking the dose. It will take about twenty minutes, and you still have time to talk to him. I'm waiting outside. If you need it, you can ring the bell and call me." The military doctor set the dose for the blood exchange and infusion device, and then walked out of the ward.

Xiaokui watched the military doctor leave, then sat quietly beside me, holding her cheeks with one hand.

"I always think I should be the stupidest person in the world. I don't know anything except eating, but you are even stupider than me, really." Xiao Kui licked her lips and said, then laughed.

"Who said that I clearly have high IQ." I smiled stubbornly.

"It's the hurt, right?" Xiao Kui said sophisticated. She and I both laughed.

"I thought you wouldn't come...really..." I whispered.

Xiaokui shook her head:

"I have eaten so much of your food, and I have to pay it back. It's not for nothing, right? And I also want to recover early, so that you can cure my poor disease and I can eat and cook your dishes. You must be well. The dishes you cook are really delicious, and I have never eaten such delicious dishes."

I smiled:

"Just to eat my food?"

Xiao Kui also smiled:

"Because the dishes you cook are really delicious. Moreover, you are also a good person. Only good people will be chased by bad people. Only good people will be liked by so many girls, right?" Xiao Kui's voice lowered a little.

I said with some guilt:

"Xiao Kui, I didn't tell you..."

"I know everything without saying it." Xiao Kui stopped me, "They all like you, you like them too, right?"

I was silent, and finally, I nodded.

Xiaokui dug her mouth and said:

"When I saw them, I felt very strange. Later, when I started fighting with them, I knew that they all like you, so I was very angry and felt that they would come with me to steal you. If you were snatched away by them, I wouldn't have any good food. I am actually very simple. Really, if others treat me well, I feel happy, happy, and good to others. If others give me food, I feel satisfied. I let go of my mouth and eat and drink, and ignore anything else. Even if tomorrow is the end of the world, I'll eat full today."

"But last night, I found something different. I used to think that it would be enough to eat and drink, but last night I started thinking about other messy things. I began to worry about what if one day I couldn't eat enough, what should I do if one day I couldn't eat something delicious again? If food became less interesting, what would be interesting? I suddenly thought of you, I thought about the first time I had dinner with you, you watched me eat, but you didn't eat much. I was thinking, why don't you eat such delicious dishes? Later I thought, you must have lost your dog, so you couldn't eat it. I kept thinking, what kind of feeling is it?"

Sister, I don’t dare to take so many laxatives in the dish! I muttered in my heart.

"I kept thinking about what it feels like to be sad. Until yesterday you were beaten and grabbed and the chicken in my hand was rolled off, and I suddenly felt it." Xiaokui said, "Sadness means you think of someone in your heart. Even if you have something delicious in your mouth, you can't swallow it. The taste of sadness is worse than anything else. It's too bitter. But after eating, I found that it can't forget it. I fell in love with this taste. I have never tasted this taste before. It's very fresh. Eating is for living, but living is not just for eating. I think that when people live, they must also experience other flavors. It's not tasted with their mouths, but for savoring with their heart, cooking with their youth, chewing with their life, and aftertaste with the rest of their lives, right?"

Damn, where did you get the literary and artistic cells? Did Lin Yayue learn it? I didn’t expect Xiao Kui to say such elegant words, and I was a little surprised for a moment.

Looking at Xiaokui's simple face, I smiled:

"You're right... I almost don't know you anymore. Are you really the foodie Xiaokui I know?"

Xiao Kui also smiled:

"I've always been. But I want to taste more, the taste of life, I think, without you, I can't taste it."

I smiled slightly, looked at Xiaokui, stretched out my hand with difficulty, picked up a cantaloupe melon with a toothpick from the bedside table, and said:

"I know, you've been hungry for a long time, eat."

Xiaokui looked at the cantaloupe in my hand in panic.

I smiled and said, "Don't worry, this piece must be sweet." As I was speaking, my stomach also rumbling.

Xiaokui looked at my belly, then looked at the cantaloupe on the bedside table, and rolled her eyes and said:

"I'll eat, you can eat too."

"Okay." I said.

So Xiaokui also picked up a piece of cantaloupe. We started to move in a row. I delivered the cantaloupe in my hand to Xiaokui's mouth. Xiaokui opened her mouth slightly, revealing her tiger's teeth, swallowing the cantaloupe in one bite. I also opened my mouth slightly and put the cantaloupe into my mouth. The slightly cool and sweet taste filled my mouth.

Xiaokui and I bulged our cheeks, chewing the cantaloupe in our mouths, and smiling at each other.

Suddenly, the yellow dragon on Xiaokui's body emitted a light yellow light. The light was as dazzling as the sun and as fast as flowing water. It soon filled Xiaokui's whole body and enveloped Xiaokui's entire body.

"Xiao Kui's love index... is full." The voice of the love expert advisor group came from the other end of the headphones.

I looked at Xiaokui steadily, and my whole body became stiff.

Xiaokui lowered her head, spread her hands, and looked at her body in confusion. Then, she seemed to suddenly understand something, raised her head, bent her eyes and smiled. She opened her mouth, exposed her mouth that had eaten completely, licked her tongue, and said:

"It's so delicious, so happy. After the illness is cured, you must also eat well. You will always eat full and not hungry before you can live healthily. You must live. I won't be able to eat anything in the future, but you have to eat it on my behalf and use your life to taste more flavors, whether it's sour, sweet, or bitter... you must promise me."

The light yellow light scattered around Xiaokui like a firefly. Xiaokui's body quickly dimmed, and her full body gradually became transparent, like a piece of ice that melted rapidly under the sun.

Xiaokui stretched out her fingers and gently hooked them into a ring, as if waiting for me to make an appointment with her.

My eyes were wet, and I gently raised my hand, raised my little finger, and hooked it with her little finger.

"I... promise you..." I choked and my fingers trembled. "I promise you!"

Xiaokui smiled contentedly. In the light, her body suddenly dissipated and turned into countless yellow stars. The shining stars filled the bright ward. In the afterglow of the setting sun, Xiaokui left.

The light yellow wedding dress fell quietly on the small stool beside the bed, pleated into a ball, and exuded the faint fragrance of its owner.

"Xiao Kui is gone." Lin Yayue's voice came, and her voice was very heavy and full of guilt.

"This is normal, as you expected, right?" A cold voice came, and it was Gu Qingcheng's voice who had not spoken for a long time. "Hua Xiaolan's mother died when she was very young. Hua Xiaolan hasn't felt the feeling of being fed for a long time. When she was young, Hua Xiaolan was lying in bed because of hunger and illness. At that time, her sick mother still killed her dog with illness, cooked soup for her and fed her. That was something that Hua Xiaolan would never forget in her life, not because the dog meat was delicious, nor because she was hungry for too long, but because she liked the warm feeling of being fed. The same food, eating it by herself and feeding it, was completely different. Feeding is a bonus of deliciousness. You have guessed this long ago, Xiao Shiyilang?"

I nodded gently, without denying it, maybe it was because I still had the unchewed cantaloupe in my mouth, maybe it was because my choked throat couldn't make a sound.

I was still eating, eating the cantaloupe that Xiaokui had fed me.

The taste of cantaloupe is so sweet that I think I can eat it for the rest of my life.

But.

As I eat, I get bitter.
