Song Qi snapped out of his daze: "Sister, what did you just say?"
Song Yifei paused for a moment, vaguely sensing that something was amiss.
What happened to Xiao Qi during the time she was away from home?
"I said I'm back. Are you home now? I don't have my keys."
Upon hearing this, Song Qi gave a soft "hmm" and hung up the phone, then walked to the door and opened it.
Sure enough, Song Yifei was standing outside the door with her suitcase.
It's been three days since I last saw her, and she seems to be in better shape. It seems she's slowly trying to forget Xu Yichen and move on.
But his plan hasn't been implemented yet, so is it going to be terminated?
Song Qi pursed his lips and took the suitcase from Song Yifei.
Looking at her younger brother, who was a head and a half taller than her, Song Yifei suddenly realized that she hadn't had a proper chat with him in a long time because of Xu Yichen's situation.
Especially now, Xiao Qi's condition seems a bit off; she clearly has something on her mind.
After Song Yifei bent down to change her shoes, Song Qi had already helped put her suitcase at the door of her room.
"Sister, are you hungry? I'm going out to buy groceries now."
Upon hearing this, Song Yifei called out to Song Qi, saying, "Wait, let's go out together. We can take a walk together."
Since it was just the two of them left at home, they used to go grocery shopping and other errands together.
It seems that ever since my sister broke up with Xu Yichen, she hasn't gone grocery shopping with him anymore. When asked what she wants to eat, she just says "anything is fine" and then loses her appetite after only a couple of bites.
"good!"
Seeing his sister looking forward again, Song Qi nodded and smiled happily.
The two, each preoccupied with their own thoughts, went to the nearby farmers' market.
It was already afternoon, and the vegetables in the market were much cheaper than in the morning, but many vegetables were almost gone.
Song Qi's phone suddenly rang several times. Bored, he took out his phone and browsed the messages in the dormitory group chat.
Finally, his gaze fell on the video, and he gradually slowed down as he followed Song Yifei's steps.
"Xiao Qi, would you like some shredded potatoes?"
Song Yifei picked out two large potatoes and casually asked.
But he didn't hear a response from Song Qi, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look.
But I found him staring blankly at his phone, seemingly lost in thought.
His expression looked somewhat irritable, but something else was also on his face.
After thinking for a moment, Song Yifei finally asked, "Xiao Qi, what are you thinking about?"
Because of some things that happened when he was a child, my younger brother has always been very withdrawn and wary.
This was the first time in so long that she had seen such an expression on his face.
Song Qi deleted the video message, feeling somewhat annoyed, and then muted the group chat before feeling a sense of relief.
What does it matter to him who she's with or who she kisses?
They were complete strangers to begin with, and even if they had that kind of relationship under the wrong circumstances, it wasn't because they were mutually attracted.
But for some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw her kissing that male celebrity in the video.
After closing my phone, I noticed that my sister was holding two potatoes and staring at me thoughtfully.
"Sister, did you just talk to me?"
Song Yifei put the potato down, walked over to him, and asked with concern, "Xiao Qi, have you made any new friends lately?"
Song Qi was stunned for a moment, and Su Ping's face involuntarily began to appear in his mind.
The thought of her kissing other men made him instinctively shake his head, trying to forget those images while denying it, "No, what's wrong?"
Seeing that he was clearly hiding something, Song Yifei ultimately chose not to press him further and instead changed the subject.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you'd like to eat shredded potatoes tonight."
My younger brother has grown up and it's normal for him to have his own worries. If he doesn't want to talk about them, then so be it.
Moreover, she hasn't even sorted out her own relationship problems, so she's not qualified to give her brother advice.
On the other side, Su Ping's fever, which had finally subsided, spiked again that evening.
Finally, when she was burning up and feeling dizzy, she received a call from Xu Yichen.
Thinking that he wouldn't answer her calls, Su Ping got a little annoyed and hung up on him directly.
But no sooner had he hung up than his phone rang again.
Already feeling unwell due to a fever, Su Ping decided to go all the way and turned off her phone.
Just when the world had finally gotten some peace and quiet, she had only closed her eyes for less than five minutes when the door outside was slammed shut with loud banging.
"Young Master Xu, my young lady has caught a cold and just fell asleep. Could you please talk to me tomorrow?"
A moment later, Aunt Mei's voice came from outside the door.
Aunt Mei, seeing Xu Yichen rushing upstairs regardless of the consequences, earnestly tried to persuade him.
The young lady has already said she wasn't feeling well and has gone to bed; she hasn't even eaten dinner.
However, it was common knowledge that her young mistress liked Xu Yichen, so when he insisted on going upstairs and knocking on the door, she couldn't stop him too much, for fear that her young mistress would be unhappy.
"No, I need to talk to her urgently. Xiaoping, I know you're not asleep yet, please open the door."
Upon hearing Xu Yichen's voice, Su Ping groggily opened her eyes, immediately feeling extremely irritated.
No, is there something wrong with Xu Yichen?
So you don't care about other people's lives when you're in trouble, right?
The noise outside the door continued. Finally, Su Ping had no choice but to get out of bed and stagger over to open the door for him.
Xu Yichen, seeing the door open, squeezed inside.
Su Ping was already unsteady on her feet, and this collision almost caused her to fall to the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Yichen quickly grabbed her arm to prevent her from falling.
Su Ping felt a wave of dizziness, and when she came to her senses, she found herself leaning against Xu Yichen.
Aunt Mei, who was outside the door, saw the two interacting and left with a knowing smile on her face.
Su Ping realized that Aunt Mei might have misunderstood, so she quickly took two steps back and left Xu Yichen.
She's not a total green tea b*tch, she's just genuinely unsteady on her feet.
"you……"
Xu Yichen thought Su Ping was angry and didn't want to see him because he didn't answer her call yesterday, but he didn't expect that she actually caught a cold.
"How did you become like this?"
After Xu Yichen finished speaking, he quickly helped Su Ping to sit down in front of the chair.
Su Ping felt like she was having trouble breathing, and glared at him after hearing what he said.
"Otherwise what? Should I put on a song and dance to welcome you back?"
Thinking about the noise he had made while impatiently banging on the door, Xu Yichen's face flashed with embarrassment.
"That's not what I meant. I thought you were angry with me, didn't want to see me, and lied to me."
? ? ?
Su Ping was amused by him again. Did this guy take himself too seriously?
