Be in low spirits

Chapter 107 Sickness

He was afraid that he would be angry for several days, so he sighed and returned to the team.

There are a lot of things happening in the jurisdiction at night, such as drunk homeless people, dogs barking in the community and people unable to sleep, people who ate at food stalls but didn't pay, people who wanted to fight, and the police had to go back and forth dozens of times with others.

After working a night's shift, she felt dizzy and a little out of consciousness. When Xiao Liang came to work in the morning, he saw that something was wrong with her and asked with concern: "Sister, why is your face so red? Are you sick?" As he said that, he walked up to her and touched her forehead, and found that she really had a fever.

"Oh, you have a fever. Come on, I'll tell Fei Suo for you and you go and make an appointment." She was a little nervous and helped her walk to the door.

"I'm fine. Just tell Fei Suo that I'll go back and rest for a while. Let me change out of my police uniform first." She pushed her to the locker room.

After changing her clothes, she took a taxi back home. No one was home, so she crawled onto her bed and laid down. She sent a WeChat message to her mother, saying that she had dinner at home and went to bed.

She was sleeping so soundly that she couldn't hear any sound. Even the occasional ringing of her cell phone couldn't wake her up at all.

When her mother got off work, she came to her room to check on her and couldn't help complaining, "You're so grown up, but why do you still look for your mother when you're sick? You don't even know how to find medicine to take."

Kong's mother brought her water and medicine and took her temperature. She knew it was her mother, so she hugged her and shouted, "Haha, Mom, I miss you so much." The thermometer fell down as she opened her arms.

"Okay, okay, you look like this when you have a fever." Kong's mother picked up the thermometer, put it on the bedside table, and calmed her down.

She was comforted by her mother and went back to sleep. Mother Kong also began to prepare dinner.

When Kong Jianping came home from get off work and learned that his daughter had a fever, he complained: "You come home to find your mother as soon as you have a fever. You are not a child anymore. Don't you know to go to the hospital for treatment?"

"Hurry up and cook the food. I'll give her some soup before she takes her medicine." Kong's mother brought the soup into the room, intending to let her drink some soup and then take her temperature.

Her cell phone rang again. She saw that the caller ID showed Captain Li and thought it must be her son-in-law, so she picked up the phone.

"Zhixi, why don't you answer the phone?"

"Xiao Li, haha, she has a fever and is lying at home. She is not conscious yet. I will ask her to call you back when she wakes up." She knew her daughter well. She would pull herself to act coquettishly when she had a fever. If not, her father would not think she was useless.

"You have a fever? Then I'll go take a look." He was a little anxious. He hung up the phone, told Xiao Liu a few words and went out.

"My sister is running home again?" Kong Zhiting also joked after work.

"Hmph, you have a fever." Kong Jianping brought the dishes to the dining table.

"My sister is looking for mom again?" Kong Zhiting quietly opened the door and smiled at Kong's mother.

"Okay, go eat your meal." Kong's mother held the bowl of soup and wanted to feed her some.

"Mom, I don't want the injection." Kong Zhixi was lying on the bed, talking nonsense, and she couldn't even feed her soup.

"Mom, I don't want an injection~" Kong Zhiting closed the door and imitated her speech in a sarcastic tone.

"Eat!" Kong Jianping didn't know what was wrong with his daughter. When she had a fever, she wished she could hang on her mother.

The two of them were halfway through their meal when Li Li opened the door and came in and asked, "Dad, Zhixi has a fever?"

"Brother-in-law, have you eaten?" Kong Zhiting felt it was not strange for her brother-in-law to appear here.

"I'll go see her." Then he walked into the room. When Kong's mother saw him coming, she thought she would no longer be needed and wanted to leave, but she held her hand and refused to let go.

"Mom, let me do it. Have you taken your medicine?" He glanced at the things on the bedside table and it seemed that she had not taken it yet.

"Have you eaten yet? Why don't you go eat first? I'll watch over her here. This child is like this when she has a fever. I'll let her take some medicine and then I'll leave. Go quickly."

"Mom, why is Dad so annoying?" She grabbed Kong's mother's wrist and held it tightly against her chest.

"Okay, it's time to get up and take medicine." Kong's mother pushed her son-in-law out and prepared to feed her medicine.

"I hate my dad, I hate Li Li too, I only want my mom." She was in a daze and only knew how to grab the hand in front of her.

Seeing that he couldn't help, Li Li had to retreat and took the bowl to eat.

"My sister is like this. Whenever she has a fever, she will look for my mother and wish she could hang on to her. Don't mind it." Kong Zhiting explained to him.

"It would have been fine if she was like this when she was a child, but she's still so pretentious now that she's grown up." Kong Jianping has always criticized her for this problem.

"It must have caught a cold these past two days." It was the first time he saw her like this, and he thought she had always liked someone.

After Kong's mother gave her medicine, she came out to eat. She said to Li Li, "Let her stay here tonight. I don't think she will recover so quickly in the short term."

"Thank you for taking care of me, Mom." Li Li felt a little embarrassed. This disease was caused by his failure to take good care of me.

"Hey, what trouble are you talking about, family? Let's eat quickly. When we are free, we should go visit your parents." Kong's mother had wanted to visit him for a long time, but never found a chance.

After dinner, Li Li called his parents, told them about Kong Zhixi, and then went back to the team to be on duty.

He kept thinking of her words: Li Li is annoying too. He felt uneasy thinking about it.

After her fever subsided, she checked her phone and saw a missed call from Meng Yiran. "Mom?" She threw back the quilt and stood up. She felt a pain from the wound on her foot caused by the glass, and she almost fell down.

She limped to the living room, where no one was home and there was cold breakfast on the table. After breakfast, she called Meng Yiran back and made an appointment to meet.

When she arrived at her company, the girl from yesterday was very surprised to see her. She smiled at her and said, "Good morning." In fact, it was already late, almost noon.

"Why didn't you answer the phone yesterday?" Meng Yiran asked her to sit down and made her some new tea.

"Asleep." She touched the teacup in front of her. It was her favorite style.

"Here, try this tea, your favorite white tea." She filled her cup with tea.

"I called you a few times when I was drunk that day. I didn't say anything nonsense, did I?" She was a little nervous. If the truth came to light, they might not even be friends anymore.

"No, do you drink this much every day?" She didn't want to expose her, so she continued asking.

"Not really. Sometimes it's unavoidable when discussing business." She breathed a sigh of relief and sat down to drink tea.

"Drink less next time. This tea... is a little different from the previous ones."

"Well, new tea, white tea should be stored for a few years before drinking." She also took a sip and found that it was indeed not as delicious as old tea.

"It's time to change the teacup." She turned the cup in her hand and said after thinking for a long time, "It's time to change it to the one you like."

"I really like this one. Didn't you choose it together with me?" She didn't understand what she meant.

"I should go back now. I have something to do in the office this afternoon." She drank the tea in her cup, stood up and walked out. The girl brushed past her, walked to Meng Yiran's office and said, "Mr. Meng, do you know her?"

"Of course I know him. It's been twenty years, right? What's the matter?" She put away her teacup, rinsed it carefully, dried it with a paper towel, and then put it away in the drawer.

"You drank too much that day, and she was there." The little girl looked at her and told the truth.

She suddenly understood what Kong Zhixi meant when she said that the teacup should be replaced with a new one.

"Get out!" Her face suddenly darkened, and she replaced the tea in front of her with wine, one cup after another. The worry she had kept hidden for more than ten years was crushed by the words "it's time to replace the teacup with a new one".

Kong Zhixi went to the teahouse to help. Li's mother saw it and came over to discuss the house with her.

"Xiao Li told me that if we buy a new house, he will only put your name on it and pay the mortgage. Do you have any thoughts?" She pulled her to sit at the tea table, wanting to hear her opinion.

"Mom, that's all your hard-earned money, you don't have to put my name on it. Besides, this house doesn't belong to whoever's name is on it. Just put it in whose name it should be."

"Xiao Li said that you don't want the car, you don't want the salary card, and you didn't mention the house when you got married. You don't really want to divorce him and just leave, do you?" Li's mother was a little worried. Could it be that this daughter-in-law was really thinking about divorce?

"What are you talking about?" She smiled awkwardly. This Li Li really talks about everything.
