1030. Chapter 1030 Clutching the heart, worrying 25

As soon as Lao Ma's words came out, Liu Xi and I both stared blankly for a moment—you looked at me, I looked at you.

"What's wrong with you two? I'm asking you a question—what are you looking at?" Lao Ma asked again.

I never expected it, really never expected it—Lao Ma actually cared about Shangguan Yun coming; if Shangguan Yun found out, he'd surely be overjoyed again.

"How would I know? Ask Liu Xi." I said, acting as if it had nothing to do with me.

I'm pretending pretty well, hehe—only this way will Lao Ma not suspect.

"Liu Xi, did A Yun say whether he's coming today? If he's not coming, I won't cook his meal." Lao Ma really believed it and actually started asking Liu Xi.

"He probably won't come this week; it seems he went to his aunt's house." Liu Xi lies so convincingly.

I guess students nowadays lie just as skillfully as we do.

"Oh, then have him come next week." Lao Ma said without expression.

It seems Lao Ma already knows about my relationship with Shangguan Yun, so enthusiastically wanting him to come to our house for a meal—I can't quite figure it out.

"Oh, if I run into him I'll tell him." Liu Xi nodded in agreement.

"Lao Ma, why do you want Shangguan Yun to come to our house? Having him over means feeding him and buying good dishes—you're always saying we don't have enough money." I asked weakly.

"You little brat, how can you be so heartless? Look at how pitiful A Yun is, yet he tutors you. I really don't know what to say about you. I'm going to cook." Lao Ma said and then left.

After Lao Ma left, Liu Xi and I again stared at each other—you looked at me, I looked at you.

After Lao Ma walked away, I got up, closed the door, and said to Liu Xi: "Liu Xi, come clean—did you tell Lao Ma about my relationship with Shangguan Yun?"

"Sis, how could I possibly say that? Would I really be so shameless as to betray you?" Liu Xi said.

Upon thinking, it makes sense—Liu Xi probably wouldn't do something like that.
