When Aria woke up, it was already the middle of the night.
Jake had been sitting by the bedside to keep watch over her.
Seeing her wake up, he immediately brought a glass of water over.
Aria happened to be thirsty, and when she saw the water he brought, her heart warmed, “Thank you.” She smiled and took it, taking a sip that was slightly sweet, “There’s sugar in it?”
“With honey.” Jake replied.
She held her glass of water, “It’s quite good.”
“Are you hungry?” Jake asked again as he stroked her sleep-disheveled hair.
Aria nodded, “A little.”
She couldn’t eat before the surgery, so she’d been fasting until now and had been hungry for a long time.
“Wait.” Jake got up, and went downstairs.
Soon, he returned, carrying a tray.
The tray held a bowl of steaming noodles, topped with a few green cabbages and green onions, which made her feel appetizing to look at it.
Aria laughed, “The maid downstairs actually knows how to make noodles in our country?” It was incredible.
