He Yunxiao couldn't figure it out, so he could only pretend to be stupid with Li Xiangjun. After all, he couldn't say "I didn't receive it" or "My wife, your sister won't let me bring it."
"Haha, I forgot," He Yunxiao said, feigning ignorance. "Or, should I write a letter now and have someone buy it and send it over?"
"Do you think I can't find someone to do the shopping myself?" Li Xiangjun looked at He Yunxiao resentfully. Then, she said with great dissatisfaction, "It seems you don't take my words to heart at all. I even went home to talk to Grandpa for your sake..."
Li Xiangjun stopped speaking at just the right moment, giving He Yunxiao plenty of room to imagine, and then said nonchalantly, "Never mind, we're not that close anyway, I was just being presumptuous."

Li Xiangjun maintained her "pretended nonchalant" expression, but in a corner where He Yunxiao wasn't looking, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Hmph, this kid is much easier to fool than she thought.
