I was thinking about what to talk about when I'll meet Qiu Si, when mom called me out. "Hua, what did the letter say?" She asked.
"Well, it seems like she wants to meet me." I replied.
"Again?" Mom sighed.
Initially, I was confused as to why my mom termed it as again, but then I was reminded of the lie. So, I quickly regained my composure before replying. But before I even got a single word in, mom jumped in yet again.
"Now that I think about it, it's really suspicious. I mean, you just came back after meeting with her, so why did she feel the need to send you a letter? And even if she wanted to because of some random reason, why does she want to meet you now, huh? Don't you feel weird about it as well, Hua?" She asked.
I unconsciously gulped. I had to think of a good lie that was gonna make her believe me. However, nothing really came to my mind at that moment. So, I just told her the first thing that came to my mind.
