Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the news.
Could it be...?
No way. Since that day at the observation tower when he saw Jin Di, Mo Shaoting had not contacted her.
She also wanted to know how he was doing, but was relieved at least to see that there were no bad rumors in the news.
It was possible that, after cutting off contact for as long as they had, he had calmed down.
As a sister, she hoped that he would be able to be happy in the future, and to let go of his feelings for her soon.
But...
"What was that person wearing?" Zuo Aiai asked.
Yang Meimei frowned as she tried to recall. After hearing a few sentences, she was almost certain that the person was most likely Mo Shaoting.
Who else would wear a hat and mask on such a hot day?
Suddenly, her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
After Yang Meimei left, she held her phone for a long time. In the end, she opened QQ, found Mo Shaoting's profile picture, and typed a sentence:
"Are you okay?"
She sent it over.
She felt stupid. Mo Shaoting didn't usually go on QQ, and now that he was injured, how could he see her message?
She smiled bitterly and was about to turn off QQ, but at that moment, Mo Shaoting's profile picture suddenly lit up.
Then she received a message.
"I'm not feeling well."
The sad emoticon had a hint of playfulness, but also a bit of self-pity.
Her heart clenched, and she suddenly couldn't bear it.
"When you saved me, were you hurt very badly?"
"It was very serious. I was injured in many places, and I took a leave of absence for many days..."
As if he was trying to prove his words, he quickly sent another message.
"It's all over the news."
Although she knew that he was intentionally playing up his pitiful state, she couldn't help but feel guilty.
She clutched her phone for a while, not knowing how to reply to him. Suddenly, he sent another message.
"Sister Zuo Aiai, come and see if I'm okay. My head hurts, and my body is very hot. I don't have any strength, and I seem to have a fever."
She had doted on Mo Shaoting when she was in high school, and after she went to University, she'd started treating him like a younger brother.
If it weren't for what happened at Guanhai Tower, she wouldn't have been so apprehensive...but now that Mo Shaoting had been injured saving her, shouldn't she...?
She...
She was hesitating...
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang!
She was shocked, and in the next moment, she saw the familiar number of Jin Di flashing on the screen.
What a moment to call her!
Although the timing was very unfortunate, she still did not have the courage to reject Jin Di's call.
"Hello?"
"Yes. Where are you?"
"Still at school."
"Why didn't you call me?" The man's voice carried a hint of displeasure.
She frowned. "Why didn't I call you?"
"..."
She suddenly remembered what the butler had told her this morning. Could it be that Jin Di had asked the butler to tell her?
"Well...actually, I'm a little busy today...I just had a break and was about to call you..."
She lied guiltily.
"Really?" Jin Di's voice was slightly raised, and he sounded a little happier than before. She heaved a sigh of relief.
However, when she thought about the matter with Mo Shaoting, her mood sank again.
"Come find me after class," he said.
She gripped her phone, hesitated, and remained silent for a long time.
After waiting for a long time for her reply, Jin Di's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Forget it, you don't have to come."
