Mu Xiaoxiao said in a huff, âAh Ze, if only you were the one that I fell for, then I probably wouldnât have all these headaches. We definitely wouldnât fight, right?â
When they were young, she and Ah Ze never quarreled.
However, Jun Zeye shook his head, looked at her, and said, âThatâs hard to say. Love is very complicated. Once you fall in love, itâs difficult to keep thinking rationally.â
Mu Xiaoxiao regretted what she said.
If Yin Shaojie had heard that, he would have lose his temper again.
She said to Jun Zeye, âDonât tell Yin Shaojie what I said just now. Heâs very petty. He could take my jokes the wrong way and get jealous again.â
Jun Zeye nodded, âOkay, I wonât tell. Hurry up and eat your congee.â
After talking to him for some time, Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little better. She regained her appetite and quickly finished eating the congee.
Jun Zeye served up another bowl of congee for her and made her finish it.
âI donât want to eat anymore.â Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head.
Jun Zeye said, âYou have to eat, otherwise how will you have the strength to give him an explanation?â
Mu Xiaoxiao thought that what he said made sense and she obediently finished the congee.
The nurse came once to confirm that her fever had subsided and she gave Xiaoxiao some medicine.
Fortunately, Mu Xiaoxiao only had a low fever that wasnât too serious. When Jun Zeye sent her to the hospital, they had put her on an IV drip on the way there and the fever quickly subsided. After monitoring her condition for two hours, the fever didnât return, and she was able to be discharged.
Mu Xiaoxiao was also in a hurry to leave the hospital. She wanted to go to school to see Yin Shaojie.
However, she was also worried whether Yin Shaojie would be at school. If he wasnât in school, she wouldnât know where else to find him.
As soon as she left the hospital, she received a call from Mama Yin.
âXiaoxiao, have you left school already? Why havenât you and Shaojie come home yet?â
âOh⦠We wonât be going back in the afternoon,â Xiaoxiao said.
âWhy?â Mama Yin was puzzled.
Mu Xiaoxiao didnât want her to know about her quarrel with Yin Shaojie, afraid that she might get worried. âH-heâs busy with the Student Union and he said he would go back tonight. Sorry, Mama Yin, I want to stay with him at school. Weâll go back tonight, alright? â
âMy child, even if he is the President of Student Union, how can Student Union matters be more important than your birthday? Your birthday comes once in a year. If he wants to avoid it, I wonât spare him!â Mama Yin said.
âHe wonât. Itâs fine, Mama Yin. Iâll be happy however you prepare for it. Itâs okay even if you donât consult with me on this matter.â
Mu Xiaoxiao didnât want to prolong the conversation with Mama Yin because she was afraid that the more she talked, the more she would give away about their current situation.
The car stopped at the entrance to Shangde High.
It was already past noon and the students had already left school.
âIâll go in with you,â Jun Zeye said solemnly. However, at that moment, his cell phone rang.
He frowned as he saw the caller ID and he answered the call.
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, âItâs fine. I wonât keep you. Iâll go by myself.â
Seeing that he was busy, she unbuckled her seat belt, got out of the car, and waved to him.
Watching as she left, Jun Zeye said to the person on the phone, âIâm busy now. I canât return to the capital.â
