"What can I do?" Shu Xin instantly became energetic and sat up from the sofa.
"Bitter meat scheme."
Shu Xin was confused, "What do you mean? Be specific."
"I don't think about food or tea, and I feel haggard because of Yixiao." Tong Qiao said in a refined manner.
Shu Xin still didn't quite understand, "I'm in this state now, what happens next?"
"It's not enough for you to be like this now." Tong Qiao's watery eyes turned around, "You can pretend to be sick. Being sick is the best way to gain sympathy. Think about it, how distressed your father would be when he sees you haggard and sick, and then When you are sick, keep saying Huo Yanqing's name, and then your father may be able to let you be together if his heart softens."
Shu Xin frowned, "Is this... okay?"
"Judging from how much your dad loves you, it's 80% feasible, but it depends on whether you can act like it or not."
Shu Xin lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then hesitated, "Isn't it bad to deceive my dad like this?"
"This is not cheating, this is a white lie. As long as you can be happy with Huo Yanqing in the future, I believe your father will not blame you."
…
The weather these days is like a comfortable mood, gloomy and rainy.
Shu Xin got off the bus and was about to open the umbrella. Thinking of Tong Qiao's words, she paused in the movement of holding the umbrella. The next second, she put the umbrella away. How can pretending to be sick be like a real illness
Shu Xin walked home from the bus stop in the rain, and then hid the umbrella in the bushes in front of the door.
When Cao Guifang saw Shu Xin coming in soaked, she hurriedly stood up and went to greet her. She said with a worried look on her face: "Didn't I bring you an umbrella this morning? Why are you still wet like this?"
Shu Xin felt a little guilty when she heard Cao Guifang's worried tone. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look into her eyes, "I forgot it at the company."
"Go upstairs and take a hot bath. Don't catch a cold."
"Okay." Shu Xin saw that her shoes were all wet, so she walked upstairs without changing them, leaving a line of water marks on the ground.
When Shu Xin returned to the bedroom, she entered the bathroom, turned on the shower, and directly turned the water into cold water. After taking a cold shower, Shu Xin put on clean clothes and came out. She didn't feel any discomfort, and she didn't even sneeze. Could it be that it was raining in the summer? You won't get sick at all if you take a cold shower? Or is her body too good
Shu Xin was a little disappointed. She closed the door and locked it. As usual, she went to bed and dialed Huo Yanqing's number.
The phone rang once and the other side answered, "Are you home?"
Huo Yanqing's deep and magnetic voice seemed to be penetrating, with a caring tone, which directly touched her heart, making her feel a little sour, "Yeah."
The other end was silent for a few seconds, "What are you doing?"
"Miss you."
“…”
"Do you miss me?"
"Um."
Shu Xin turned around and lay on the bed. She looked through the window at the pattering rain outside. Her mood became increasingly depressed. Her mind was filled with Huo Yanqing's handsome face. At this moment, her longing flooded her like a tide. .
She missed his clean and good smell, missed his fragrant kiss with a hint of bitter tobacco smell, missed his doting smile when he rubbed her hair...
My heart felt so sour.
Shu Xin tilted her head and rested it on her arm. Something wet was dripping down. When she reached out to touch it, she realized that she was actually crying. It was so embarrassing.
"Yanqing, are you okay?" A familiar male voice came from the other end of the phone, and it was not Huo Yanqing.
Shu Xin, "Are you busy?"
"Tingxi is here, we have some clues about the resort."
"oh."
"You cried?"
"… No."
"I'm here to see you."
