When they arrived at the canteen, it was at around dinnertime, so there were quite a few people. However, hospital workers don't necessarily follow regular mealtimes due to their jobs, so it's actually quite challenging to fill the entire hall.
Xia Feng brought Yu Dong to an empty table.
"Sit here first, I'll go get us some food." Xia Feng said.
"Alright." Yu Dong nodded with a smile.
Xia Feng returned the smile then headed towards the canteen windows.
"Dr. Xia, the porridge you requested is ready." The canteen chef said this when he saw Xia Feng, "I'll go get it for you."
"Thank you." Xia Feng replied.
"Oh, you're too polite." The chef happily went into the kitchen.
He soon came back with a casserole and said, "It just came out of the stove, so it's still pretty hot, be careful."
"Thank you again." Xia Feng thanked the chef as he accepted the casserole.
"What's that?" Xia Feng jolted, he didn't notice Shao Yifan approaching him. Shao Yifan lifted the lid of the casserole, causing a fragrant scent to dissipate. Shao Yifan took a deep breath and said, "Smells so good; chicken and mushroom porridge?"
"Put the cover back on!" Xia Feng was exasperated.
"Specially cooked for Yu Dong? Give me a bowl too, I haven't had such nutritious food in a long time." Shao Yifan licked his lips.
"You're joking!" Xia Feng said.
"Don't be stingy, Yu Dong won't be able to finish such a big bowl anyway." Shao Yifan attempted to wheedle Xia Feng for a bowl.
"Didn't you just tell me earlier today that Yu Dong's your idol, what are you doing trying to steal your idol's food?"
"Stingy!" Shao Yifan put the lid back on and complained to the flustered chef: "Master Chef, how can you only make Xia Feng special dishes? I want some of that food too."
"Oh haha, another day, another day...." The chef knew that Shao Yifan was just kidding around, so he happily played along.
Xia Feng escaped and brought the casserole back to Yu Dong. He placed it on the table in front of her and said, "Wait a bit, I'll go grab a bowl and a spoon."
"Alright!" Yu Dong saw Xia Feng was heading towards the utensil bar. Curious, she lifted the lid of the casserole, seeing the fragrant chicken mushroom porridge, it looked quite appetizing.
Yu Dong immediately sat up with a small chuckle.
Xia Feng came back and passed Yu Dong a spoon as he set down a small bowl in front of her.
Yu Dong accepted the spoon with a laugh, saying "You're treating me like a child!"
"Children are often crying and making trouble, how can you be one when you're so obedient?" Xia Feng sat down and started to serve himself a bowl too.
"It's so delicious!" After taking a bite, Yu Dong's eyes narrowed in happiness.
"How come you sound like you've never had porridge in your life?" Xia Feng joked.
"Close enough, I haven't had porridge in 7 or 8 years." In her previous life, Yu Dong was a workaholic, but she still had trouble waking up in the morning. So she usually skipped breakfast even then, mostly just grabbing some fast food, how can she have time to leisurely enjoy porridge.
