Chapter 344 - 351 Red
"What did you think?" Li Yifei asked with calm detachment.
"If you think about it normally, your relationship with Meng Xiaofei is very good, so good that you could just stay at her place anytime, and she eats here every day. You two must have had ’that kind of thing’ happen already, but Meng Xiaofei is a girl without any schemes, and although you’re quite a charmer, you have strong principles when it comes to certain things. You probably wouldn’t do anything with her," Xu Yingying said while watching Li Yifei’s face, but she couldn’t make out any changes in his emotions. Pausing for a moment, she continued, "The reason I asked you that was because I felt that something unexpected must have happened last night, otherwise Meng Xiaofei wouldn’t be giving you that kind of strange look."
Li Yifei couldn’t help but admire Xu Yingying’s keen observation and said, "There was a little incident, but it’s nothing."
Seeing that Li Yifei didn’t want to talk about it, Xu Yingying didn’t inquire further. She was just confirming whether Li Yifei had been involved with Meng Xiaofei in ’that way,’ and now she had gotten the answer she wanted. Nothing else mattered.
Although they had planned to go back for the weekend, an important issue came up at the company at the last minute, so Li Yifei and Xu Yingying didn’t return to Pingyang. By the time they had dealt with everything, it was already Tuesday afternoon. They went straight home, and as soon as they walked in, they sensed that the atmosphere was off.
Normally, with their mother’s serious illness, the house had been quite somber, but today, there was a joyful atmosphere as soon as they stepped in.
"Sis, it’s great news, great news," Xu Shanshan came over and affectionately linked arms with Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying was secretly annoyed with her sister’s heartlessness. What could be so joyful to make her this happy, as if she had forgotten about their mother’s illness? But Xu Yingying didn’t want to appear too gloomy either; that would only add more to their mother’s emotional burden. Smiling, she asked, "What’s the good news?"
"Ha ha... I took Mom for another check-up today. Guess what the doctor said?" Xu Shanshan winked at Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying’s heart suddenly began to race uncontrollably, and she excitedly rushed over to her mother. Grasping her smiling mother’s hands, she asked urgently, "Could it be they made a wrong diagnosis last time?"
