She just thought it was the talk of a trapped beast.

Inside the house, Xiang Baiwei went out to open the door and didn't come back for a long time. Jiang Sui was puzzled and wanted to ask loudly, but he found Liu Mei coming in with something in her hand.

"Principal Jiang, I heard you were sick. Is it serious? The sanitary conditions in this small place are not very good. Do you want me to take you to the hospital in town or the county? I think you should not be careless with a cold or fever."

Liu Mei put the eggs and malt extract in her hands on the table, pulled a stool over, sat down beside the kang, and looked at Jiang Sui who was sitting on the kang.

Why is she here?

Jiang Sui was not at all welcome.

The atmosphere between him and Xiang Baiwei just now was so good. The two of them were talking and laughing, interacting with each other, and it was rare to see such harmony.

When things were going so well, Liu Mei suddenly showed up... It really ruined the mood.

Although he hated her in his heart, Jiang Sui couldn't show it on his face, so he still had to greet Liu Mei politely: "How did you find time to come here?"

"You're sick. As a friend, of course I have to come and see you." While Liu Mei was talking to him, she also deliberately provoked Xiang Baiwei, "It just so happens that I haven't come to see Weiwei for a long time. We have such a good relationship, so it's normal for us to visit each other often, right?"

Xiang Baiwei put a hypocritical smile on her face and placed the water she had just poured next to Liu Mei.

Hating her was one thing, but I couldn't show it in front of Jiang Sui.

Otherwise, Liu Mei would definitely take the opportunity to deal with me.

She would not be fooled by Liu Mei every time.

"Jiang Sui's condition is actually not serious. He just caught a cold when he kicked off the quilt at night. He should be well now. Doctor Chen gave him a small injection this morning. If it was really serious, I would have taken him to the county town a long time ago." Xiang Baiwei said, looking at Jiang Sui, "Why don't you two chat first?"

Jiang Sui didn't dare to be alone in a room with Liu Mei, so he quickly called out to Xiang Baiwei: "Liu Mei is your friend, why are you leaving her here and going out by yourself? It would be so embarrassing for me!"

Xiang Baiwei didn't move her feet at all. Her eyes swept over Liu Mei lightly: "Liu Mei came to see you today and brought so many gifts. You two should have more things to talk about."

"You know I'm not good at socializing," Jiang Sui quickly distanced himself from me, "Are you tired of me and are looking for this opportunity to go out?"

"Why would I find you annoying?" Xiang Baiwei looked puzzled. "Can you please stop putting accusations on me?"

"Oh, you don't find me annoying? I thought you were angry because I forced you to read to me today, so I took this opportunity to leave quickly."

Jiang Sui actually breathed a sigh of relief in an exaggerated manner, "I'm glad you're not angry. I feel relieved then."

The couple were talking to each other, and Liu Mei felt as if she was being deliberately ignored.

Just when she was about to lose control, Xiang Baiwei brought her up while talking: "Liu Mei, are you busy at school today?"

"I went to town to do some work today and was not at school. When I came back, I heard that Principal Jiang was sick. I thought he was in good health and rarely got sick, so I came to see him."

Liu Mei continued to look at Jiang Sui with some concern: "Is it really just a cold? I see that you don't look very good, are you too tired recently? I know you have to take care of everything, so you must not have had a good rest."

Xiang Baiwei secretly curled her lips in her heart.

Seeing Liu Mei's caring attitude, I wonder if she secretly regrets having given me that advice.

If she had used this trick on herself at that time, would she be the one who is so affectionate with Jiang Sui now?

really!

Xiang Baiwei actually guessed it right.

On the other side, Jiang Sui looked at Liu Mei who was talking and laughing, and responded politely, not daring to show any familiarity.

I was afraid that if I said something wrong, Xiang Baiwei would be unhappy.

At first, Liu Mei didn't notice Jiang Sui's politeness and distance, but she was not a fool. After ten minutes or so, even if she was a fool, she could realize that Jiang Sui seemed to be deliberately drawing a line between them.

This move is somewhat hurtful.

Liu Mei could endure Xiang Baiwei's countless sarcasm, but she couldn't stand Jiang Sui's coldness.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do," Liu Mei stood up and said goodbye to the couple, "I'm glad you're okay. As a friend who went to the countryside with me, I should come to see you. Now that I know you're okay, I feel much more relieved."

Jiang Sui sat up straight. "It's just a cold, not a serious illness. Don't spend money. Eggs and that are expensive. Take them back. It's not easy for you to save money."

"That's my sincere gift, so don't refuse it. Besides, you don't look well, you should take some nourishment." Liu Mei took the opportunity to show her concern.

Xiang Baiwei was standing nearby, and for some reason she felt a little sour in her mouth.

As the saying goes, you're not afraid of thieves stealing, you're afraid of thieves thinking about

Although she had already prepared to divorce Jiang Sui.

But they are not divorced yet.

If Liu Mei were to think about it now... it would be a bit too disgusting.

Jiang Sui was afraid that Xiang Baiwei would misunderstand him, so he quickly said, "Give these things back to Liu Mei. It's not easy for her, and our family doesn't need them."

So do you want to draw a line between you and her, or are you reluctant to let her spend money?

Xiang Baiwei muttered secretly in her heart, walked to the table, picked up the gift on it and wanted to return it to Liu Mei.

Liu Mei hurried over to stop her.

As the two people were pushing and shoving each other, a book slipped off the table and the letters inside fell out.

Liu Mei took a quick glance and recognized the postmark.

This is a letter sent from the county town. If I'm not mistaken, it should be sent from Jiang Sui's home.

During this moment of distraction, Xiang Baiwei politely stuffed the gift into her arms and asked her to leave the house.

When Liu Mei came to her senses again, she was already standing outside the yard.

Liu Mei looked at the things in her hand, and then looked at Xiang Baiwei who was blocking the door: "You do have some skills!"

"What do you mean? What method? Why don't I understand?" Xiang Baiwei just pretended to be stupid.

Liu Mei sneered, "I said, I was kind enough to send something to Jiang Sui, but I accidentally let you bring both the person and the gift out to me. If someone who doesn't know the situation saw this, they would think that we are enemies and you don't like me."

"How could that be? I just don't want you to spend money. These things are so rare. You can take them back to nourish your body. Look at you, your face is so pale. You should worry less in the future. Worrying too much is not good for your health."

Xiang Baiwei looked at Liu Mei with concern. People who didn't know them passing by would definitely praise them for the good relationship they had.
