Ayaki's head hurt even more.
She secretly glanced up at Yagiri.
The young man noticed her gaze, raised his eyebrows slightly, looked back lazily, and asked her with his mouth, "What's the matter?"
Ayaki shook her head silently.
She racked her brains to make up lies, trying to deceive Xia Yun.
"Xiao Yun, you misunderstood," the girl said sincerely, her round eyes widened, "This is my aunt, here to take care of me."
Xia Yun: "...Xixi, do you think I am a fool and easy to deceive?"
"..."
At a quick glance just now, Xia Yun couldn't see clearly. The other person's wrist was tied with a very plain black bracelet. The dark color made his skin extremely white, his finger bones were long and slender, and his knuckles were graceful, which made him look a bit noble inexplicably. Come.
Not like an ordinary person.
How could such a pair of hands belong to a part-time worker?
"It's Auntie," Lingxi said perfunctorily with her eyes open, "Xixi, I'm a little sleepy and want to sleep. I'll hang up now. You don't need to come. Auntie will take good care of me."
"..."
Before Xia Yun could speak, Lingxi hung up the phone.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Yagiri listened to all the exchanges between her and Xia Yun. The young man smiled half-heartedly and tapped his knuckles on the table of the desk, word by word.
"Aunt?"
Ayaki choked when she picked up the hot water to drink again.
She innocently raised her eyes, looked at Yagiri, and looked away with a guilty conscience.
"It's just a lie to her," Ling Xi said without any confidence. The girl puffed up her cheeks, slightly protruding a soft curve, and whispered in a low voice, "I'm afraid Xiao Yun will think too much."
"Huh?" Yagiri drawled out lazily, with great interest and a clear sense of teasing, "What are you thinking about?"
Ayaki shut up.
"I was wrong," Lingxi confessed honestly, trying to obscure the matter, "Brother, can you not care about this title."
Yagiri was slightly startled.
He was actually just teasing Ling Xi, but he didn't expect to hear a rather unfamiliar title.
The girl's voice was soft and sweet, but became hoarse and weak due to illness. Her lips and teeth opened and closed slightly, and she uttered two intimate and sweet words.
--elder brother.
The young man turned his face away uncomfortably and coughed muffledly.
"I see."
Ayaki stared at the other person in surprise, and saw the boy's eyelashes trembled slightly in panic. Yagiri took a slight breath, "I have something else to do, so I'm going out first."
It can be said that he ran away in despair.
Ayaki was confused.
It's just a title, does it have that much power?
The news that Lingxi had a cold was not concealed. The aunt who came to cook discovered something was wrong with Lingxi and reported the news to her employer. Therefore, Lingxi received a call from Meng's mother in the evening.
"...Mom, I'm fine." After resting all day, Lingxi's condition was much better than when she first got up. "I've taken medicine, and I should be fine on Monday."
she said uncertainly.
"That's good," Meng's mother breathed a sigh of relief, and then told her daughter, "Xi Xi, take a good rest at home and don't go out for the next two days."
"Yeah, I will."
The lights in the room were adjusted to a soft dim tone. Lingxi had slept all day today and was not sleepy. After calling Meng's mother, the girl checked her phone and passed the time boredly.
When the time came, Yagi came in on time with hot water and cold medicine.
Ayaki took the glass, but before she could drink it, she heard Yagiri speak, "Ayaki, I may have to leave for a while."
"?"
Ayaki paused in surprise.
Logically speaking, the Ying family that suppressed Yagiri has been dealt with, and there is no reason for him to leave.
Why did you leave so suddenly?
"What happened?"
"It's okay," Yagiri said easily, "It's a small matter and it will be solved after a while."
Lingxi held the cup tightly, her fingertips pressed against the glass, and her palms were warmed by the simmering, "Then when will you come back?"
"Not sure," Yagiri tilted his head, his eyes slowly softening.
"But I'll do it as soon as possible."
