"Uh! Well..."
Xia Tian was so busy thinking of an excuse that he ignored this common sense issue.
The main thing is that he really didn't expect that Li Lu and Qiu Mengyun could actually remember when the corn was ripe.
"What are you talking about? Are you lying to me on purpose?" Qiu Mengyun asked.
Just when the truth was about to be revealed, Xia Tian suddenly had an idea and said, "Actually, I was thinking that my family grows spring corn. We plant it early, so we harvest it early too."
"I was just wondering how I would explain spring corn to you if you didn't know about it."
Li Lu curled her lips and said, "Who are you looking down on? We're not idiots who can't tell the difference between grains. How could we not know what spring corn is?"
Qiu Mengyun also nodded and agreed, "Exactly. Even if we didn't know, we knew there was early-maturing corn on the market! Otherwise, where did those people selling corn on the street get it from?"
Xia Tian smiled awkwardly: "Haha! It seems that I was overthinking it and underestimated your knowledge and understanding."
Qiu Mengyun waved her hand: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you so much. We're full and we're going back now. You can clean up by yourself!"
Seeing that she really stood up and was about to leave, Li Lu pulled her sleeve.
He asked quietly, "Mengyun, wouldn't it be bad for the two of us to leave like this?"
"According to the rules of the underworld, he cooks and we should be responsible for washing the dishes."
Qiu Mengyun said indifferently: "Hey! Why are you so polite to him? It's just washing dishes. I believe Xia Tian won't mind."
Li Lu asked worriedly, "Is that really okay? After we leave, this guy won't be angry and never make delicious food for us again, right?"
Qiu Mengyun smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I say it's okay, then it's okay."
"After all, we still have to go back and research and replace the surveillance camera outside my house. Xia Tian knows we have something to do, so he won't mind, right?"
Xia Tian was originally a little dissatisfied, but when he heard Qiu Mengyun mention the surveillance again.
The slight dissatisfaction that had just risen in my heart disappeared in an instant.
She immediately smiled and said, "Mengyun is right. Just leave this little thing to me after you finish it. She just came back. You two sisters haven't seen each other for a long time. You should hurry back and catch up!"
"You said you didn't need us to clean up, it's not that we don't want to help." Qiu Mengyun said as she pulled Li Lu out.
Xia Tian nodded: "Of course, since you are eating at my house, you are guests. It doesn't make sense to ask guests to help clean up. Slow down!"
After sending the two girls out with a smile, Xia Tian closed the door with a bang.
"Huh! I finally got rid of her. Why is Qiu Mengyun acting so strange today? I always feel like every time she mentions surveillance to me, she has something else to say."
"No, I can't stay here anymore. I have to leave quickly and go back home to hide."
After making up his mind, Xia Tian took out his cell phone and refunded the high-speed rail ticket he had booked for tomorrow.
Since he has a flight this afternoon, he doesn't want to stay here any longer.
He had a feeling of insecurity that he would be exposed in the next second.
After returning to Qiu Mengyun's house, Li Lu asked curiously, "Mengyun, did you find anything on Xia Tian?"
Qiu Mengyun pretended to be nonchalant and denied it, "No, we are just partners. What can I possibly use against him?"
"Besides, Xia Tian is a recent graduate. It's impossible for him to do anything illegal. What evidence can I use to threaten him?"
Li Lu nodded in agreement: "That's right, maybe I'm overthinking it."
"I don't know why, but after you two came back this time, I always felt that Xia Tian's attitude towards you was like a different person. He obeyed everything you said."
Qiu Mengyun laughed and said, "Hehe! What's so strange about this? Maybe he was bewitched by my charm and fell at my feet."
Li Lu curled her lips. "Come on, forget it. I paid special attention to your conversation. Xia Tian looked at you with extremely clear eyes, and there was no admiration in them at all."
Qiu Mengyun said unconvincedly, "That doesn't prove anything. Maybe he's just being good at disguising himself. After all, if you want to know a person's heart, you don't look at what he says, but what he does."
"Doesn't his performance today prove that he's interested in me?"
Li Lu shook her head without giving any face: "Whether he is really interested in you, maybe only he knows it. Anyway, I can't see it."
"But, I noticed something was wrong with you."
Qiu Mengyun was surprised: "Me? What's wrong with me? I'm fine, what's wrong?"
Li Lu laughed and said, "Hehe! I noticed that after coming back this time, your eyes always pay attention to Xia Tian intentionally or unintentionally."
"Even when he was chatting with me, his eyes would always glance at Xia Tian unintentionally."
"It seems that I want to see him all the time."
"Tell me honestly, could it be that you, a girl, really have fallen in love with him?"
Qiu Mengyun quickly shook her head and denied it: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly like him?"
"Shouldn't you be the one who knows best about my relationship with him? Our relationship has always been clean and pure, a partnership of the purest kind."
Li Lu laughed and said, "Come on! Do you really think I'm blind?"
