Li Chunhua was baffled. "You saw that too? Wait a minute, since when did you notice us? Moreover, why are you following us?"
Shao Jingfei looked offended by her accusation. "I didn't follow you! I just happened to watch the same movie as you guys, then we happened to go to the same restaurant. That's all!"
She squinted her eyes dubiously while observing him up and down. "Really? Sounds too convenient for me."
"Don't get ahead of yourself. I'm not so idle to do that." Shao Jingfei scoffed.
"No need to feel embarrassed. You are not the first guy who keeps pestering me to give you attention." Li Chunhua smugly grinned while flipping her hair.
"I'm not embarrassed, but your words embarrassed me. You are too narcissistic for your own good."
Li Chunhua enjoyed his unamused expression and wanted to tease him further. She smiled at him and winked flirtatiously. "What if I reward you with a kiss?"
Shao Jingfei visibly shivered as if he had just heard something horrifying. "That's disgusting. Don't do that again, or I'll leave you here."
"Hahaha! Your reaction is so funny!" Li Chunhua pointed at his face. She laughed so hard she had to press her stomach. "This is the first time someone looked terrified when I said I'm going to kiss him."
"Seriously, I pity the guy who will be your boyfriend. You are too unrestrained; I'm worried he will be enslaved by you."
"As he should! My future boyfriend is lucky to have me, so isn't it obvious that he has to work hard for me." Li Chunhua raised her chin haughtily, making Shao Jingfei shake his head helplessly.
"Well, at least you look more energetic than before. That's a relief."
"Didn't I say I will be fine? This happens occasionally. You are overreacting."

"How can I not? What if something happens to you and your condition worsens because of my late handling? I'm afraid you will be gone once I take my eyes off you."
Li Chunhua was stunned. He looked too agitated for someone who was worried about his friends.
"Jingfei, I'm fine. I'm not going anywhere. I should be the one asking you, are you okay? Your face doesn't look well, even though I'm sick."

Shao Jingfei wanted to say something more but later closed his mouth again.
"Nevermind. I will call a taxi to take you home."
Li Chunhua didn't want to go home yet. She didn't wish Li Caiyi to know she had almost collapsed again. Her sister would surely make a fuss about it and force her to go to the hospital.

"Wait! Let's sit here for a bit longer. I want to talk to you more!"
"No, I want to talk to you directly!" Li Chunhua saw Shao Jingfei's unconvinced face and worked her brain to devise a good excuse. She definitely couldn't let him tell her sister about this!
"I want to hear more about your brother!"
Li Chunhua realised her mistake as soon as she blurted that out. Her brain automatically recalled the conversation she had with Li Caiyi the other day and said that.
As expected, Shao Jingfei frowned when he heard that. "Why do you want to know about my brother?"
? Now that it had come to this, Li Chunhua had no choice but to charge forward. "Can't I ask about it? You know everything between my sister and me, so isn't it unfair that I know nothing about your brother?"
"That's not how it works. Besides, I have no intention of telling anyone about it. Just mind your own business."

His words were cold and decisive, like a wall of cold and hard ice. She couldn't find any crack on it.
Shao Jingfei had never told her about anything. Was it because he thought she couldn't be trusted? Considering it that way made the girl's shoulder slumped dejectedly.
"Did you ask about it because Caiyi told you what happened in our company?"
Bullseye. Shao Jingfei's stare was like a heavy pressure on her. At times like this, he could be pretty scary because Li Chunhua couldn't tell when he would explode. His tone carried a sense of warning and reprimand; it made her restless.
"Don't be mad. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't." Li Chunhua puffed her cheeks sulkily.
"You twins should just think of yourself first. If Caiyi told you just so you could convince me to attend that party, I have to politely decline. I didn't say this to be mean, but I'm uncomfortable with how you two keep asking me the same question."
'Ah, he really is mad indeed.' Li Chunhua thought inwardly.
This topic was a landmine. Li Chunhua understood now why her sister said she shouldn't meddle. Although she was curious, she decided to not press further. At least for now.
"I just wanted to make a conversation. I didn't want to go home and let Xiaoyi see me like this. She will be worried and blame herself for being too lenient on me."
Shao Jingfei couldn't sense any tricks or mischievousness in her this time. The way she looked down apologetically softened his heart, making his anger evaporate instantly.
"You should have just said so then." Shao Jingfei returned to his seat beside her and looked forward to the busy street. His gaze was distant with a hint of melancholy in it. "I can't tell you about my brother, but do you want to hear about my mother instead?"
"Your biological mother?" Li Chunhua echoed his words. Just a moment ago, he was like a tiger who was ready to fight to keep his territory, but now he willingly told her about that sensitive matter. She didn't know what to think.

"My mother used to be like you. She is weak physically and will get sick often, but she would cook for me sometimes. On the day of my 13th birthday, she was trying to cook for me, but her health suddenly dropped, and she collapsed on the floor. Apparently, she still had the stove on then, and it almost burned our small house along with my mother in it."
Li Chunhua covered her mouth in shock. She never knew Shao Jingfei had such a sad childhood story.
