Li Ruyue hung up the phone and slowly lowered her head. Her heart was racing, as if it were about to leap out of her chest. She pressed her hand against her chest, trying to calm herself down. It's fine, it's just a meeting; it's not like she hasn't met him before. She kept reassuring herself, and her nervousness finally eased a little.
Li Ruyue lifted her head, just about to continue eating when she noticed her mother looking at her with a worried expression.
"What's wrong?" Li Ruyue asked after a pause.
Her mother replied, "What’s wrong with you?"
"Nothing," Li Ruyue said.
"Why is your face so red?"
"Is it?"
Her mother nodded, concern etched on her face. "Are you running a fever?"
Li Ruyue touched her face and realized it was surprisingly hot. After a moment, she shook her head. "No, I'm just a bit warm."
Her mother frowned. "Warm? The highest temperature today is only fifteen degrees. Are you really feeling warm?"
Li Ruyue hesitated and mustered the courage to say, "I have a different constitution; is that not okay?"
Her mother was speechless. "Fine, whatever you say makes sense."
Li Ruyue chuckled and lowered her head to continue eating.
The next day, Li Ruyue had breakfast and then went out to the hospital.
As she was going downstairs, she happened to run into Li Xiaoxing, who was also heading out.
Li Ruyue casually asked, "Where are you going?"
Li Xiaoxing blinked and replied, "To a classmate's house."
"Oh," Li Ruyue nodded, "Then you go ahead."
"Sister, what about you?"
"I'm going to the hospital to see a classmate."
"Oh, then let's go together."
"Sure."
The two of them went downstairs together. Just as they reached the bottom, they suddenly saw Wang Yueming standing in front of them.
Li Ruyue paused for a moment.
Wang Yueming was wearing a black wool coat with a gray turtleneck sweater underneath, which made his complexion look even paler.
Li Ruyue was surprised and asked, "…What are you doing here?"
Wang Yueming looked at her and said, "I came to find you."
Li Ruyue responded, "…"
She hesitated and asked, "Aren't you injured? Why are you running around?"
Wang Yueming replied nonchalantly, "It's just my arm that's injured; it's not like my leg is broken."
Li Ruyue said nothing in response. "Then why aren't you staying in the hospital? Why come out?"
Wang Yueming answered, "To see you."
Li Ruyue felt her face flush and fell silent.
Meanwhile, Li Xiaoxing glanced between them, a hint of mischief flashing in her eyes.
He gently tugged at Li Ruyue's clothing and asked, "Sister, is this your classmate?"
Li Ruyue nodded, "Yes."
Li Xiaoxing blinked, "Then should I call him brother-in-law?"
Li Ruyue: "..."
Her face flushed, and she quickly covered Li Xiaoxing's mouth, "Don't say that!"
Li Xiaoxing innocently blinked.
Wang Yueming watched them, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
He cleared his throat and said, "Since you're here, I guess I don't need to go over anymore?"
Li Ruyue: "..."
She bit her lip and asked, "Is your injury okay?"
Wang Yueming: "It's fine."
Li Ruyue: "…Oh."
She paused for a moment and then asked, "Are you still going to class today?"
Wang Yueming: "Yes."
Li Ruyue: "…Oh."
She hesitated again and said, "Then we'll be leaving now."
Wang Yueming: "…Mm."
Li Ruyue turned to leave, with Li Xiaoxing following closely behind, glancing back at Wang Yueming every few steps.
Wang Yueming nodded at him, and he happily smiled and followed Li Ruyue out.
