"Shen Mochen, Shen Mochen!"
The day after the school anniversary, incessant knocking reverberated at Shen Mochen's front door.
"Ah…"
Shen Mochen rubbed his eyes and climbed out of bed to answer the door.
Seeing Shen Mochen's silhouette, Yuncui's tense heart relaxed, and she couldn't help but complain, "Why did you take so long to open the door? I was about to break it down!"
"Sorry, I overslept."
"What's with you today, waking up so late?"
Shen Mochen touched his head pretentiously, "Nothing really, just a headache… I'm not going to school today since there are no classes anyway. I'll rest at ho for the day."
"Do you have a fever with that headache?"
Yuncui imdiately reached out to touch Shen Mochen's forehead, then pressed her own head against his, closed her eyes, and felt Shen Mochen's temperature.
The scent of coconut milk wafted into Shen Mochen's nostrils, and a glimpse of continuous white could be seen at the neckline of Yuncui's chest.
"It seems a bit hot," Yuncui released Shen Mochen's head, surprised, "Ah, your face is even turning red!"
Damn, who wouldn't blush with you suddenly doing this! I kind of want to indulge!
"Uh-huh." Shen Mochen grumbled internally, but this pretense made his fake illness look even more convincing.
"Quick, go rest in bed!" Yuncui hurriedly helped Shen Mochen towards the room.
Shen Mochen acted listlessly and obediently returned to his bedroom.
As Yuncui helped Shen Mochen onto the bed and was about to cover him with the blanket, she suddenly saw a few brown blood stains on the blanket and asked in surprise, "Is that blood on your blanket?"
Shen Mochen glanced at it, it was from the last ti Yin Caiyu was here. These bloodstains couldn't be washed out even in the washing machine, and he had been too lazy to bother about it; as long as it was clean and usable, that was fine.
Usually, he changed the bedsheets weekly, and this week it was this set's turn.
Although it was a bit unexpected, Shen Mochen kept a straight face, "Oh, that… I'm not sure when it happened. Sotis Yin Caiyu sleeps here when she visits."
Yuncui didn't ask further, assuming it was a leakage during the night's sleep. Thinking about it, she felt awkward and sowhat regretted bringing it up.
"Shen Mochen, you were studying last night." Yuncui looked around and seeing the textbooks on the desk, couldn't help but sigh, "You really work hard, unlike . I was so clueless in school, especially with math; I just couldn't grasp it."
"Given my background, it's already good enough that I can attend school," Shen Mochen said lightly while lying on the bed, "so I need to study hard. Only through studying do I have a chance to change my fate."
"Mmm, ambitious!" Yuncui's face filled with emotion as she rubbed Shen Mochen's head, full of admiration.
Shen Mochen smiled and began seeing her out, "Yuncui sister, you should go to school by yourself today. I'll be fine, just need so rest after the dication and should be able to go normally tomorrow."
"How could I do that?" Yuncui's eyes widened, "How can I just leave when you are sick? I'll stay and take care of you!"
"No need, no need, Sister Yuncui, you go on to school. I'm really fine! Isn't Liu Chaoyan waiting for you?"
Shen Mochen quickly refused, not that he found Yin Caiyu troubleso, but he felt taking undue advantage of soone honest wasn't right. After all, even Shen Mochen would feel a bit embarrassed by having her do so much under a false pretense.
"Chaoyan will be fine; Gu Yange will also be with her…"
Yuncui was saying this when her phone suddenly rang. She looked down, then walked out of the bedroom, "I'll just take this call."
"Hello... are you waiting for downstairs? But I might not be able to make it today... Hmm, Shen Mochen is not feeling well, I need to stay and take care of him... You want to co up too... to see where I live... Okay, if you're not busy, you can co up and sit for a while..."
After hanging up the phone, Yuncui walked to the bedroom door and said with a smile, "Mochen, wait for , I'll be right back!"
"Who was that calling just now?"
Shen Mochen suddenly felt a pang of unease.
"It was Chaoyan. She was passing by the school this morning and ca over specially to see . I'm going down to et her, I'll be back in a bit."
Yuncui said hurriedly as she rushed downstairs.
"Huh?"
Shen Mochen was bewildered.
What's going on? What happened? Why is she suddenly coming to my house?
Damn it... What exactly was the reason for to fake being sick!
Is fate ssing with ? Why do I feel like I've been too clever for my own good recently!
Soon, there was a rustle of footsteps in the stairwell, and the whispers of girls faintly entered.
"Mochen, Chaoyan heard you were sick and ca to visit you too!"
Yuncui entered the room smilingly, followed by a similarly radiant young girl.
Please don't co, thank you from all of my family! Shen Mochen scread internally.
"Cough cough cough... Actually, there was no need to co, I wouldn't want to infect you... cough cough!"
"Shen was very energetic yesterday, how co he's sick today?"
But Liu Chaoyan didn't seem to care, she tiptoed into the bedroom, her face revealing a slight concern.
Shen Mochen coughed, pretending to be weak, "I cough cough... I might have caught a cold, took a bath last night and then got a chill... Miss Liu, please don't stay here, if I infect you, it would be my fault. You and Yuncui should go back to her room!"
"Please don't worry, my body isn't that frail," Liu Chaoyan smiled slightly, like the spring sunshine.
How could you, you are a pampered young lady, can't you just take care of yourself! Shen Mochen internally raged, but then he saw Liu Chaoyan turning to Yuncui,
"Yuncui, it seems like Shen might have caught a fever, do you have any dicine at ho?"
Yuncui shook her head, stood up and said, "Then I'll go buy so. Chaoyan, can you help look after him?"
"Of course, I took care of Xia Jie when she had a cold last ti!"
"But about school, can you miss it for a while..."
"Just showing my face there, they don't have strict requirents, I can go a bit later. I haven't made a fixed ti with Yange, just said I'd call her when I get there."
Yuncui nodded, smiled at Shen Mochen and said, "Then Mochen, I'll go get you so dicine, you two get along well!"
Hey, don't go!
Shen Mochen was bewildered again, are you leaving alone with her?
I am really sick! Why on earth did I pretend to be sick? Shen Mochen watched helplessly as the door closed, and Yuncui's figure disappeared before him.
Wait a second, it's early morning, the pharmacy won't be open for another half hour, where are you going to buy dicine!!!
