Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Rui suddenly raised his hand and slapped Xu Yi's arm.
He opened his eyes slightly and shot a cold glance at his younger brother with his dark eyes. Then, he closed his eyes again.
*
Xu Yi did not seem surprised by Xu Rui's attitude. However, Xu Momo was a little surprised. It turned out that the relationship between the two brothers was so bad, and the hostile party seemed to be Xu Rui.
"Why is this room so cold? It was probably a cold from the air conditioner.”Xu Yi said calmly," I'll go find some fever medicine."”
After saying that, he casually picked up the remote control and turned off the air conditioner. Then, he left the room quickly without looking back.
Xu Momo and Xu Rui were left alone in the room.
Xu Momo stood in place with her hands down, unconsciously playing with the Lancer USB drive. Her eyes involuntarily glanced at Xu Rui's face with his eyes closed.
Uh, his eyelashes were quite long. She let her imagination run wild.
Besides…it seemed like Xu Yi was not completely unconcerned about his brother.
Maybe that scumbag was just a tsundere. She thought maliciously. Hence, her imagination suddenly opened wide and she silently imagined a coquettish brother who stayed at home and a proud brother who liked to flirt with women…Then she realized that she was shamelessly cute.
Of course, even though she was cute, she could still tell the difference between reality and fiction, and between the 3D and 2D world.
Soon, Xu Yi found the fever medicine. He placed the medicine on the table and said,""I have to go. Senior martial brothers and sisters are still waiting for me.”
"Eh? Didn't you say that the gathering was over?" Xu Momo immediately asked sharply.
"Oh, the gathering is over, but they just sent me a message asking me to go to KTV."”
He glanced expressionlessly at Xu Rui on the bed, then looked at Xu Momo again and said in a business-like tone,"Thank you for your hard work today, Xu Momo. Thank you for helping…helping to take care of my brother.”Xu Momo keenly noticed his pause. What did he want to say?
Xu Yi raised his hand and looked at his watch." Mmm, it's getting late. You should go back to school later." My dad will be back tomorrow, so don't worry.”
Xu Yi turned around and left after giving his instructions.
What did he mean? Xu Momo quickly chased after him." Hey, wait a minute."
Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the door of the house slam shut.

Xu Momo could only sigh and return to Xu Rui's room. She looked down at the fever medicine on the table.
'At least get me a glass of water,' she thought to herself.
She left the room and went to the kitchen to find a cup. She then took some mineral water from the water dispenser.
She had just returned to Xu Rui's room with a glass of water when she was shocked by the scene in front of her.
Xu Rui was sitting motionlessly by the bed. Because of his thin figure and pale face, he looked like a thin ghost at first glance.
When Xu Momo came in, he didn't move either. He just stared at the ground.
"Here's some water." Xu Momo handed him the cup.
Xu Rui did not look up. He took the cup and held it with both hands at the same time. He began to drink with a dull gaze. Xu Momo looked at him and felt that he was probably a little confused from the fever.
She suddenly thought, Is it really okay to leave him alone at home tonight? However, she couldn't possibly stay and take care of him for the entire night.
They had only just met and were not even friends. Although Xu Momo had liked Lux for a long time, she liked Lux's literary talent and stories more than Lux himself. However, her relationship with Xu Rui was only that of strangers who knew each other's names.
She watched as Xu Rui took the fever medicine and frowned as he swallowed it. Then, he cleared his throat and said,"Since Uncle Xu is going home tomorrow, I don't have to help you update, right?”
Xu Rui nodded slightly, his lips moved, and he said in a hoarse and nasal voice,"…Thank you."
After he finished speaking, he put down the cup and lay back on the bed with his back facing Xu Momo.
He thanked her? Xu Momo was surprised.
*
"Don't forget to take your medicine, drink more water, and keep warm.”Xu Momo said to Xu Rui's back. After saying this, Xu Momo suddenly felt like a nanny taking care of a child.
The person being cared for did not move. He remained silent as if he was asleep.
Before he left, Xu Momo quietly placed the USB drive on his bedside table. She looked at the little " Lance " reluctantly. She felt a little regretful when she thought about how she had missed the final chapter of " Twilight " tonight. However, she would be able to see the ending online in a few days, so it didn't make any difference whether she watched it earlier or later.
She tiptoed out of the room and closed the door gently. She did not notice that the moment she closed the door, the man facing the wall suddenly opened his eyes slowly.
After leaving the Xu family, Xu Momo suddenly stopped.
…Thank you.
Xu Rui's thanks echoed in her ears again. Xu Rui's pale and haggard face appeared in her mind at the same time.
"Your sister." Xu Momo cursed silently, then turned around and hurried back to the Xu family's apartment.
She decided to be a saint today.
She took out her phone and dialed her home number."Mom, I have something I need your help with…"
