After spending the entire afternoon in the toilet, He Yubai looked terrible. When he pushed open the door and came out, his legs were trembling slightly.
Are you alright?
Jiang Mian went up to help him.
"Not good," He Yubai said, her feet dangling and she could only lean against him. "I feel like I'm about to collapse from exhaustion."
Jiang Mian clicked her tongue and said, "Don't you rich people eat delicacies like abalone and lobster every day? Sometimes you're not even afraid of parasites, and you can even eat raw sashimi. But now you've been knocked out by Grandpa Niu's bowl of noodles?"
"I'm already in this state, so please stop being so resentful of the rich for now, okay?"
Jiang Mian was shorter than him and was also thin and small. He Yubai really didn't dare to put all his weight on her, for fear that he, being such a big person, would hurt her.
She could only use her feet for leverage while explaining to him, "Raw sashimi and other similar items are at least processed before being served to ensure the freshness and hygiene of the ingredients."
"What do you mean? Are you questioning the hygiene of Grandpa's noodles?"
If he weren't a patient, Jiang Mian would have almost dropped him on the ground.
Hearing the subtle threat in the other person's tone, He Yubai quickly tried to cover it up: "It's not Grandpa's fault, it's probably just a problem with my own stomach."
“I think so too,” Jiang Mian said, helping him walk slowly. “There are so many out-of-town customers in Grandpa’s shop, and none of them have gotten sick from the food. You’re the first one to do so.”
Jiang Mian laughed and teased him, "As expected, the jokes on the internet don't lie. If you can have immense wealth, you can also have immense bad luck."
He Yubai wanted to be angry, but he didn't have the energy to be. He felt extremely resentful: "You're really heartless. I'm in this state, and you can still laugh."
Oh right, I almost forgot, this is the future CEO—Young Master He!
How could I possibly laugh at myself like that?!
After all, other people also have pride!
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh."
Jiang Mian felt like a real dad, not only having to coax the child, but also worrying himself sick over the child.
However, he still had to add, "He Yubai, I have something to tell you."
"you say."
"Boys need to practice their legs more. Look at you, you can't even stand up straight, you're a bit weak."
How can a domineering CEO not be good enough?!
The domineering CEO is capable of seven times a night!
"My legs just went numb from squatting. What does that have to do with whether I train my legs or not?" He Yubai said with a dark expression. "Besides, you haven't even tried it, so why do you think I'm weak?"
He Yubai was not about to be accused of being dishonest, and his tone became serious.
Jiang Mian gave him a thumbs up: "As expected of you, I was just getting the gist of it, but you conveyed it directly, turning BabyBus into a high-speed train in an instant. That's fast."
He Yubai was amused. It was the first time he had ever realized that Jiang Mian was so eloquent. He had really underestimated her before.
"Little lamb".
He Yubai called out to him.
"Um?"
"Did you deliberately put laxatives in my food?"
“No way,” Jiang Mian retorted righteously, “If I were to use it, it would be DDT.”
He Yubai: "..."
He could only grit his teeth and say, "Fine, you're ruthless!"
Seeing him humiliated, Jiang Mian laughed even harder.
It must be said that, in terms of family background, character, and upbringing, He Yubai is truly a very good partner.
He recalled what Song Huaizhi had told him back then: to covet what truly existed in the other person.
Although it sounds cold, it is a sufficiently clear-headed statement.
He Yubai happens to fit these criteria. As a future domineering CEO, who would have thought that he is also a pure and innocent young man?
Jiang Mian looked at He Yubai with admiration, wondering who would be so lucky as to win over the young master in the future.
As a guest who had come from afar, and as Jiang Mian's classmate and roommate, He Yubai should have properly greeted Jiang's parents when they returned.
But after having an upset stomach all afternoon, he has now truly become the weak person Jiang Mian described.
Fortunately, after drinking a few cups of warm water, the diarrhea symptoms were relieved, but He Yubai's complexion was still poor.
After learning what had happened, Jiang's mother pretended to be angry with Jiang Mian and said, "You really are something. Your classmate is in so much pain, and you don't even go and buy him some medicine."
Jiang Mian defended herself: "He was in such a state that he couldn't leave. What if he fell into the toilet? I'd have to go in and get him out."
He thought it was just ordinary diarrhea, and that he would be fine after going to the toilet a few times. Who knew that Young Master He was so... different from others.
The more he talked, the more outrageous it became, and He Yubai's face turned slightly red.
After all, it's quite embarrassing to spend an entire afternoon in someone else's house because of an upset stomach.
"What nonsense are you spouting, kid?!"
Jiang's mother was so angry that she slapped Jiang Mian, saying, "It's one thing that you don't go to buy medicine for your friend, but you can't even find the medicine at home?"
"We have antidiarrheal medicine at home? How come I didn't know?"
He was away at school all year round, so how would he know where his mother had put the medicine?
“You talk as if this isn’t your home, and you don’t know anything about it,” Jiang’s mother turned around to go look for it. “Wait here, I’ll go look for it.”
"Auntie, no need, don't go to so much trouble, my stomach is fine now."
He Yubai felt bad; the stomach upset was his own problem, and he couldn't possibly trouble others.
“You’ve had diarrhea all afternoon, so you definitely don’t have an upset stomach, but doesn’t your stomach hurt?” Jiang’s mother said. “I just saw you clutching your stomach, so it must be hurting from the diarrhea, right? Auntie will go get you some painkillers.”
