I'm furious.

Wang Mei was a little angry: "Qingqing, I'll give him a piece of my mind if I see him next time."

"No, he said these medicines are for my own good, and they do make me feel better."

“He takes good care of me, Xiaomei.”

Wang Mei grew angrier as she watched Chen Yifei act so foolishly. How dare Chen Yifei deceive such a good girl?

He was about to go and settle accounts with Chen Yifei when He Runqing handed him the medicine and said, "Take a sip. It tastes like Isatis root. These are herbs that barefoot doctors dug up in the mountains."

"I was the one who got the powder; you can just mix it in water and drink it."

Hearing this, Wang Mei felt a little embarrassed: "So you... have a cold?"

"Yes, it was too cold at night, and I caught a chill. Chen Yifei came over and took care of me for a while that day."

Wang Mei then realized that she had misunderstood something very clearly, and almost went to confront Chen Yifei.

He scratched his head somewhat awkwardly: "I thought it was him doing that..."

"I didn't consider your feelings."

Although He Runqing was simple-minded, she wasn't completely ignorant. Upon hearing this, she instantly understood.

His face turned pink: "How could this be..."

“He has all the proper manners. He’s a very good person, Xiaomei.”

"I understand, I understand the feelings between you two."

"If you like him, I will never talk about him again!"

After saying that, Wang Mei went out.

"I like him..." He Runqing kept pondering those words.

She wanted to marry Chen Yifei, to have children with him... and even more, she wanted a long, long future with him. Sometimes she even started to feel insecure; she was beginning to consider Chen Yifei's feelings.

Although Chen Yifei wasn't good at saying nice things, everything he did was for her own good.

At least, whenever He Runqing needed comfort or help, it was Chen Yifei who came to her aid.

He made that promise when she lay on the bed, disheveled and utterly desperate. He was always by her side during her most vulnerable moments.

Even when I'm feeling down or unsure of what to do, Chen Yifei is always there for me...

It seems that ever since that time when the two of them were forced to be together, two unrelated parallel lines have become intertwined.

This is a wonderful coincidence.
