Xu Yi could tell she really wanted to help. He rubbed his eyebrows and faced the girl seriously. "My mother just has a small cold. There’s no need to go through so much trouble."
He paused and explained, "I’m not being polite."
Qiao Nian met his gaze and saw he was serious. She turned away and said, "Then you don’t have to come to the laboratory for the next few days. I’ll help you apply for leave from the dean and the rest. Stay at home and accompany Auntie."
Xu Yi looked at her thin shoulders. He knew she had always wanted to break through that complicated experiment. He opened his mouth and was about to say that he could hold on a little longer.
Turning around and seeing he was still there, Qiao Nian stared at him in surprise before remembering something. "Wait for me."
She went to the locker and took out a transparent glass bottle containing seven or eight brandless white pills from her shoulder bag.
Qiao Nian handed him the glass bottle. "This is for you. Hand it to Auntie."
Xu Yi took it. "This is..."
"Health supplements," the girl said casually. "Tell Auntie to take one a month. There are not many. I’ll try to get more for her next time."
Xu Yi thought of something and opened his mouth.
Qiao Nian beat him to it. "You’ve helped me so much. If you’re even going to argue with me about such a small gift, I’ll find someone else to help."
Xu Yi gripped the glass bottle tightly, unable to control his emotions. He watched as she casually put the shoulder bag back into the locker.
Actually, he wanted to say that she had helped him a lot back then. She was the one who pulled him out of the dark abyss.
Xu Yi saw that she was immersed in her work and did not disturb her anymore. He grabbed his things and tiptoed out. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
