Chapter 244: Lying for Love 1
"It won't happen, how could you easily get a stomachache? I'm not that delicate, okay." After I said that, Shangguan Yun still handed me the food he bought for me and said: "You've already eaten it, what can be done? Don't be so stupid next time. I specially went to buy it for you, so keep it and eat it when you want to. I'm leaving now." Shangguan Yun put down the things and left.
After Shangguan Yun left, looking at the AD calcium milk and cake, my heart felt sweet, that feeling indescribable.
After a day, my stomach was fine, with no chemical reaction at all—how could it be so easy to get a stomachache?
School was out, another wonderful weekend was coming. Shangguan Yun, A Ji, Lili and I four walked together; Shangguan Yun and A Ji first escorted me and Lili to my home, and when we arrived, Shangguan Yun and A Ji waited downstairs while I and Lili went up.
As soon as I got home, Mom was busy in the kitchen. Every time it's Friday, when I come home there's always a table of delicious food, the dishes I like to eat, and Mom always says I'm malnourished at school.
"Mom, I'm back." I put my things on the sofa and headed to the kitchen; Lili followed me into the kitchen and called out, "Auntie." When Mom saw Lili come over, she beamed and said, "Lili, right? How come you have time to come to our house today? Since you're here, have a meal before you leave."
"Mom, Lili's parents are away out of town, she doesn't dare sleep alone at night, so she asked me to stay at her place this week to keep her company, otherwise she'd be scared." I said this offhandedly, making up a lie, and Lili quickly chimed in: "Yeah, Auntie, can't you let Xuanxuan stay at my place these few days to keep me company?" It seems Lili's acting skills are much better than mine. I secretly gave her a thumbs-up in my heart for how convincing she was.
"That's no problem, but since your parents aren't home, you can also stay at our place. That would be lively and we could look out for each other, plus I could cook a meal for you." Mom said enthusiastically and hospitably; if that were the case, why would I have brought Lili over?
"Mom, we have so many people at home, Lili would feel embarrassed." I said anxiously; if Mom didn't agree, Shangguan Yun would be disappointed again.
