That night, Xu Rui did not go online. By noon the next day, his QQ profile picture did not light up again.
Did something really happen? Xu Momo couldn't help but think.
But didn't Xu Rui stay at home? What kind of accident could happen at home?
At noon, Xu Momo planned to go to the cafeteria for lunch. He Xiaofei, who was still lazing in bed, reached out a paw from the top bunk and grabbed her collar.
"What?" Xu Momo helplessly tugged at her blue-painted fingernail.
"Bring me…bring me some food." He Xiaofei struggled and said in a hoarse voice.
"Alright, Miss. What do you want to eat?”
He Xiaofei got up from the bed in a daze. She sat cross-legged and narrowed her eyes, staring ahead.
Xu Momo held back her laughter and waved her hand in front of her." Are you possessed or are you practicing?" Have you become an immortal?"
"I'm thinking about what to eat." He Xiaofei said seriously.
"Alright, don't think about it. I'll bring you some knife-cut noodles.”
He Xiaofei turned to Xu Momo and nodded. She said slowly and deeply,"Yes, I am. Add more vinegar."

After leaving the dormitory, Xu Momo quickly went to the cafeteria. As it was the weekend, there weren't many people in the canteen. She first went to the window that sold sliced noodles and bought some noodles for He Xiaofei. Just as she picked up the public vinegar bottle and poured vinegar into it, a voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
"Is it for He Xiaofei?"
Xu Momo's hands trembled, and she almost poured the remaining half of the vinegar into the noodles.
She turned around and saw that it was indeed Xu Yi.
Sh * t, did he really have a spirit behind him?!
"How did you know?" Xu Momo raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Because she especially likes to eat the knife-cut noodles in the canteen, and she always adds a lot of vinegar.”
"Oh."
Xu Momo had always been disgusted by two-timing scumbags. Coupled with her bad impression of Xu Yi, her attitude was not enthusiastic at all.
At this moment, a hand suddenly patted Xu Yi's shoulder affectionately." Brother Yi, what are you doing?"”
A tall and thin boy with black-rimmed glasses and pimples on his face looked at Xu Momo with a smile." Hello, sister-in-law."”
"No, don't talk nonsense." Xu Yi smiled calmly." This is a classmate from the School of Chemistry. Her name is Xu Momo.”He patted the shoulder of the person beside him." This is Chen Sheng. He's in the same dormitory as me.”
"It's Chen Sheng from the Wu Guang Uprising.”The boy grinned and said with a standard Beijing accent," Hey, I was wondering why Sister-in-law has gained weight recently. So it's not Sister-in-law." Don't be offended, I just look blind."
Fat…Fat…
…What the hell is the meaning of this?! Xu Momo flipped the table in her mind and complained.
"Are you from the School of Chemistry? Do you know He Xiaofei? She's my ex-sister-in-law, the campus belle of your school. She's quite beautiful.”Chen Sheng said with a smile.
…This guy really brought up a sore spot.
Xu Momo subconsciously looked at Xu Yi, but Xu Yi's expression remained calm, as if Chen Sheng had just mentioned someone who had nothing to do with him. Of course, he could also be pretending.
"I do." Xu Momo said concisely," I have to go. I have something to do." After saying that, she picked up the plastic bag of noodles and turned around to leave quickly.
She did not notice that Chen Sheng was staring at her back.
*
"Hey, do you think she has a boyfriend?”Chen Sheng asked as he sat opposite Xu Yi with a bowl of noodles.
"Who is it?" Xu Yi looked up at him.
"The one just now, the one called Xu Momo.”
"I don't know. I didn't ask." Xu Yi said.
"Don't you think she's quite cute?”Chen Sheng said as he slurped the noodles.
"Oh, really?" Xu Yi picked up a water spinach thoughtfully." I didn't notice."”
"By the way, do you have her phone number?”Chen Sheng's mouth was stuffed with noodles as he mumbled.
Xu Yi paused for a moment." Yes."
Chen Sheng's face immediately blossomed with a smile." Send me her number." Thanks, I'll treat you to a meal someday."
Xu Yi lowered his head and sent Chen Sheng his number. At the same time, he raised his head and glanced at Chen Sheng. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile as he said,"You're so stingy, and you still want to treat me to a meal?”
"What? You don't believe me?" Chen Sheng chuckled. Three yuan worth of spicy hotpot and plain water to drink! How nice!"

At 7:07 pm, Lux still had not updated.
Xu Momo realized that something was wrong.
She picked up her phone and stared at the contact list, hesitating for a while. She wanted to call Dr. Xu to ask, but she felt that it was too abrupt. Hence, she sent Xu Yi a message." Have you been home for the past two days?”
Soon, Xu Yi replied.
"What's wrong?"
"My dad asked me to ask. He wants to play golf with Uncle Xu this weekend.”Xu Momo made up a lie. Her father liked to play golf anyway.
"I'm afraid that won't do. My dad is on a business trip these few days.”
"Business trip? Is there no one at home these few days?"
"There's someone. My brother must be at home. You should know my brother, right? She was the one who hid in her room and did not go out.”
In other words, Xu Rui had been alone at home for the past few days?!
Xu Momo immediately realized that this must have something to do with Xu Rui's interruption.
She couldn't help but imagine the scene of Xu Rui writing at home alone and fainting due to a sudden illness…
…Could it really be like this?
Xu Momo suddenly became restless.
"You'd better go home and take a look. Are you sure your brother is alone at home?”She texted Xu Yi.
However, Xu Yi replied," No, I can't. I'm having dinner with my senior brothers and sisters in the courtyard." My brother is an adult. He won't die.”
This scumbag! Xu Momo cursed to herself.
After hesitating for a moment, she grabbed her keys and wallet, put on her sandals, and hurried to the door.
"Where are you going, Momo?" Ma Yuanyuan, who was in the same room as her, asked curiously as she applied a facial mask in front of the mirror.
"I'm going to a friend's house." Xu Momo replied and left the dormitory without looking back.

After leaving the school, Xu Momo took a taxi and went straight to Doctor Xu's house.
Fortunately, Dr. Xu's house was very close to University A. They arrived in less than ten minutes by taxi. Just as the car was about to reach the entrance of Dr. Xu's neighborhood, Xu Momo suddenly saw a hooded figure walking by the roadside.
The summer in B City was very hot. Even in the evening, the temperature would not drop for a while. Most of the people on the street were wearing cool summer clothes, so this figure was particularly prominent.
The man walked strangely. His footsteps were unsteady, and his body swayed. It looked like he was about to fall.
At this moment, that person suddenly raised his head, revealing a slightly pale face.
"Stop the car!" Xu Momo immediately shouted.
She quickly paid the fare and got out of the car. Then, she quickly walked towards the person.
She had only taken a few steps when she saw the figure sway and fall to the ground.
Xu Momo was shocked. She ignored the red light at the intersection and rushed to the person's side. A familiar face peeked out from under the slanted hood. His black hair was completely drenched in sweat, and his pale face was unnaturally flushed.
It was indeed Xu Rui!
"Xu Rui! Xu Rui!" She slapped his cheek and found that his body temperature was shockingly high.
- Heat stroke? Or did he have a fever?
She hurriedly took off Xu Rui's hoodie to help him cool down, then took out her phone with one hand, intending to call 120.
But at this moment, Xu Rui's hot hand suddenly grabbed Xu Momo's wrist, and his pair of red black eyes stared at Xu Momo.
"You're awake? That was great! I'll call the ambulance now. Don't worry!”Xu Momo quickly said.
Xu Rui's dry lips moved.
He grabbed Xu Momo's wrist tightly, as if he didn't want her to dial the number.
"What's wrong? What do you want?" Xu Momo looked at him with wide eyes.
Xu Rui's Adam's apple bobbed as he licked his lips, as if making a sound was extremely difficult for him.
A moment later, he finally squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth in a hoarse voice,""Pay…the internet fee."
*
"Internet fees? What internet fee?" Xu Momo was surprised." Are you talking about the internet fees?”
Xu Rui immediately nodded.
"Don't worry about that. Are you alright now?" Xu Momo frowned and asked.
Xu Rui shook his head and got up from the ground shakily. Xu Momo subconsciously supported him.
The T-shirt he was wearing was almost soaked in sweat. Through his clothes, Xu Momo could clearly feel the hot body temperature coming from his body.
