Ling Xu slapped the table angrily and left, threatening to break off friendship with Su Mubei.

I often keep an umbrella in my bag, just in case, but it is a coincidence that when I bring the umbrella, it doesn't rain, and when I don't bring the umbrella, the downpour comes easily.

Meng Xiaofeng came home in the rain, and as expected fell ill with a cold. The next morning, he developed a slight fever, and his body was limp because of this. He felt dizzy, nauseated and had a sore throat. In desperation, he chose to ask for leave.

She called Su Mubei, but no one answered the phone, so Meng Xiaofeng had to make the next best thing and edited a text message for her.

----Mr. Su, I have a little fever today. I really can't work. Can I ask for a day off?

It took half an hour for the text message to come back, and it was a short reply.

----Um.

Looking at the word um on the phone screen, Meng Xiaofeng felt a little lost inexplicably. She had promised to let Meng Xiaofeng ask for leave, but why did she still feel disappointed?

After much deliberation, Meng Xiaofeng couldn't find out the specific reason.

Maybe Su Mubei was too considerate before, no matter how big or small she would take care of Meng Xiaofeng, but this time she caught a cold, but her attitude was not salty, Meng Xiaofeng was a little uncomfortable, and inevitably a little disappointed.

Xia Qing and his boyfriend's laughter came from outside the room, Meng Xiaofeng coughed hoarsely, feeling depressed.

Xia Qing knocked on the door and said with concern: "Xiaofeng, how is your cold? Is it serious?"

Meng Xiaofeng covered the quilt and said in a muffled voice, "It's okay, I'll be fine after a night of sleep."

Recently, Meng Xiaofeng and Xia Qing had some small conflicts. After Xia Qing made a boyfriend, she seemed to intend to live with him. She discussed it with Meng Xiaofeng once. Meng Xiaofeng made it clear that it was not convenient, but Xia Qing still let his boyfriend moved over.

Although Meng Xiaofeng understands that Xia Qing's love is deeply unbearable, but recently he still plans to find a house and move. After all, it is really inconvenient to live under the same roof with a strange boy.

Maybe it was because of the cold, Meng Xiaofeng was extremely lethargic, and soon after lying down, he became sleepy again, and after falling asleep, he dreamed in a daze.

The dream jumps a lot. For a while, I dreamed that I was working, and then I dreamed that I was reading, and then I dreamed about some things in my childhood.

The self in the dream was pulling a little girl, crying.

"I don't want to pick up trash alone, so don't go."

But the little girl whispered to her ear, and promised in a low voice: "When I grow up, I will come back to you. I won't let you pick up trash, I will support you."

As for this childhood playmate, Meng Xiaofeng has almost no memory of her, she no longer remembers her name and appearance, even in her dreams, her face is vague and non-existent.

☆, coax you to take medicine

Sleeping in a daze, it seemed that someone was calling him, dizzy, Meng Xiaofeng opened his eyes with difficulty, and heard Xia Qing talking beside him.

"Xiaofeng, your cell phone has been ringing. Didn't you hear it? Don't you have a fever?"

She put her hand on Meng Xiaofeng's forehead, and then touched her own forehead in doubt, but she still couldn't tell whether Meng Xiaofeng had a fever or not.

Meng Xiaofeng struggled to half sit up, his whole body was limp, and the sweat stains from time to time made his clothes sticky, making him very uncomfortable.

"I don't have a fever, it's just that I'm a little sleepy with a cold."

"Then it's good that you're fine," Xia Qing withdrew her hand reassuringly, "By the way, your cell phone has been ringing for a while, and I saw you didn't answer it when I was outside, so I came in to have a look."

The phone kept beeping and beeping, and it was really annoying. Meng Xiaofeng picked up the phone on the bedside table, and the caller ID was Su Mubei.

Looking at the caller ID, Meng Xiaofeng's downcast mood suddenly became active again. Seeing Meng Xiaofeng giggling at the phone screen, Xia Qing asked suspiciously.

"Who?"

"My boss."

Meng Xiaofeng pressed the button with inexplicable joy and excitedly prepared to press the answer button. Xia Qing hurriedly stopped her and reminded her.

"She must have come here to find out the truth. Be careful when you answer the question."

"What's the truth?" Meng Xiaofeng looked at Xia Qing in confusion.

"What else can you find, you are sick and stupid."

Xia Qing pushed Meng Xiaofeng's forehead with hatred, and continued: "You suddenly asked for sick leave, and the boss is calling now, [-]% to find out whether you are really sick or fake, and now there are no employees who are lazy for no reason. A few, each of these bosses is also very good."

Listening to Xia Qing's analysis, Meng Xiaofeng tilted his head and looked at the phone, the original joy in his heart gradually faded, is it really as Xia Qing said?Didn't she call because she cared about herself?

After answering the phone, Meng Xiaofeng obviously didn't need to cough, but he still deliberately coughed a few times, trying to strengthen the credibility of "I'm really sick and I didn't fake it".

"Ahem, ahem, President Su..."

When the person on the other end of the phone heard the heart-piercing cough, they frowned unconsciously.

"Are you home now?" Su Mubei asked.

The first sentence asked if she was at home. She really didn't come to care about the illness. If she cared about the illness, she would have to ask a few words about Meng Xiaofeng's situation. It turned out that, as Xia Qing said, she was inquiring about the truth as the boss.

"I am home."

Meng Xiaofeng's tone was low, even a little aggrieved.

"Then I'll go to your house. It will take me about half an hour to drive there."

These words came suddenly, Meng Xiaofeng replied subconsciously: "Come to my house? What are you doing at my house?"

Meng Xiaofeng's mind was muddled, and before he could figure out the situation, Su Mubei hung up the phone directly on the grounds that he was driving and it was inconvenient to make a call.

Meng Xiaofeng stared blankly at Xia Qing, Xia Qing also looked at Meng Xiaofeng blankly, and then the two said in unison: "I'll go."

"Your boss is too ruthless. In order to know whether you are really sick or fake, he ran over here himself."

Meng Xiaofeng opened his mouth halfway, also very surprised.

Said half an hour later, the doorbell really rang. Meng Xiaofeng ran to the bathroom to wash his face. Hearing the doorbell, he trotted to open the door, but Xia Qing's boyfriend beat him one step ahead.

Su Mubei held the cold medicine he had just bought at the pharmacy in his hand, and calmly pressed the doorbell, and the door opened after a short wait.

The person who opened the door was a tall boy of about 1.8 meters. Su Mubei was slightly taken aback, then looked up at the house number, and after making sure that he was looking for the right place, he asked.

"Excuse me, does Meng Xiaofeng live here?"

Before Xia Qing's boyfriend could reply, Meng Xiaofeng hurried forward and greeted the people outside the door: "Boss Su."

As if seeing Su Mubei's doubts, Meng Xiaofeng took the initiative to introduce: "This is my roommate's boyfriend." Then he pointed to Xia Qing, "She is my roommate."

Su Mubei nodded knowingly. Although she didn't show anything on her face, she was secretly worried. How could she, a girl, share a room with a boy, even if she was a roommate's boyfriend? This is a huge security risk .

Since Xia Qing's boyfriend opened the door to see Su Mubei, he has been looking at him intentionally or unintentionally. Meng Xiaofeng always thinks that Xia Qing's boyfriend is very strange. The way she stares at Su Mubei is very uncomfortable. .

Maybe Meng Xiaofeng was too sensitive, because other than Meng Xiaofeng, no one else had this strange feeling.

Xia Qing and Su Mubei greeted each other politely, and then dragged their boyfriend back to the room.

"President Su, sit down first, I'll make you a cup of tea."

It was only after arriving in the kitchen that I realized that the tea leaves at home had long since disappeared, and the refrigerator was also empty. There was nothing there, Meng Xiaofeng said embarrassingly, biting the bullet.

"The tea seems to be gone. Wait a minute. I'll go downstairs to buy some."

Su Mubei smiled and said, "Don't bother, I'll just drink some water."

Su Mubei didn't mind these details, and Meng Xiaofeng also secretly heaved a sigh of relief, his throat was itchy, and Meng Xiaofeng coughed while pouring water.

Su Mubei frowned and looked at the coughing person.

After pouring the water, Meng Xiaofeng felt that the water he poured while coughing probably contained a lot of viruses, so it would be better not to give it to her.

"President Su, are you thirsty?"

Su Mu looked at the general from the north and asked, "Is there no more water?"

Meng Xiaofeng scratched his head, "That's not true, the main reason is that I'm afraid of infecting you with the cold."

"It's okay, I'm in good health, and there will be no problems under normal circumstances."

Seeing what she said, Meng Xiaofeng had no choice but to bring the water over. Su Mubei took the water, took a few sips of water, and did not speak again.

The atmosphere was dry, Meng Xiaofeng coughed lightly, trying to explain.

"Boss Su, I really have a cold, I'm not lying."

Even if you were telling lies, you wouldn't come here in person, Meng Xiaofeng broke into a cold sweat secretly for himself, it seems that you can't ask for leave casually in the future, this boss is really too "free".

"I hope you tell a lie, so I can relax."

"Huh?" Meng Xiaofeng looked at her puzzled.

Su Mubei put down the water glass, and she took out a box of cold medicine from the white handbag she carried at all times.

"I brought you cold medicine on the way, take your medicine."

Meng Xiaofeng looked at the cold medicine on the table, and said anxiously: "I've already taken cold medicine, so I don't need to take it anymore."

"You must not have eaten." Su Mu said.

His words were very firm, as if he saw through Meng Xiaofeng's lies at a glance.

Meng Xiaofeng did not take it, because she was most afraid of taking medicine since she was a child. Whenever she caught a cold or got sick, if she wanted Meng Xiaofeng to take medicine, it would be Meng's mother who would force her to take it with a feather duster. .

"I took it, really." Meng Xiaofeng was stubborn to the end, saying that he was unwilling to take those cold medicines with strange shapes and strange tastes.

Seeing her like this, Su Mubei didn't insist anymore, but changed the subject suddenly, she said.

"Why didn't I answer your call before?"

When Su Mubei called, Meng Xiaofeng was sleeping, if Xia Qing hadn't come to remind her, Meng Xiaofeng would probably still be sound asleep now.

"I fell asleep. I was dreaming when you called. I was so dazed that I thought I was listening to a song."

"Well, what have you been dreaming about?"

Su Mubei seemed to want to chat, but Meng Xiaofeng was puzzled, but as long as she was not allowed to take medicine, everything would be fine.

"I didn't dream anything, just... I dreamed about something from my childhood."

Su Mubei raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she was a little interested, she asked, "Then who did you dream about?"

It's just a dream, why is she asking the bottom line?Although Meng Xiaofeng was puzzled, he answered the question patiently.

"Just a friend when I was young, but she was not very good. She promised to come back to play with me in the future, but she never came back."

What's wrong with her?Su Mubei twitched the corners of his mouth, and replied after a while: "Maybe she looked for you, but she just didn't see you?"

"How is that possible." Meng Xiaofeng waved her hand, "She definitely doesn't remember who I am, so how can she really come back to find me?"

"She doesn't remember you, so do you still remember her?" Su Mubei asked seriously.

Meng Xiaofeng hit the point when asked, as if he had no right to complain about the other party, she didn't keep her promise and came back, but his memory of her was also so shallow that it almost didn't exist, if it wasn't for the dream just now, Meng Xiaofeng would have almost forgotten it This playmate exists.

"Of course I remember her." Meng Xiaofeng flinched cheekily.

"Oh?" Su Mubei said in disbelief, "Since you remember, what's her name?"

"Her name is..." I really couldn't make up a name for a while, and I couldn't tell why after being vague for a long time.

Su Mubei chuckled, and then slipped the pill into Meng Xiaofeng's mouth without a trace, talking to her about all this, just to divert her attention and trick her into taking the medicine.

Meng Xiaofeng was struggling to make up a name to make up a lie, and didn't pay attention to what was stuffed into his mouth for a while, so he opened his mouth subconsciously and ate it.

A strange taste spread from his mouth, Meng Xiaofeng soon realized something, and tried to spit it out, but was stopped by Su Mubei.

In desperation, she had no choice but to hurry up, picked up the half-drinked water that Su Mubei hadn't finished drinking, and quickly swallowed the medicine with the water.

Before the taste dissipated in his mouth, Su Mubei stuffed another transparent thing over. Meng Xiaofeng hurriedly dodged it, but she said, "It's candy."

Meng Xiaofeng looked at Su Mubei resentfully, then swallowed the transparent sweet candy, the sweetness soon replaced the bitterness.
