Love Letters

Chapter 244 Happy 8th Birthday

The sick Xu Mobai looked pitiful, like a puppy that had returned after wandering outside for a year.

"You should have a good rest first."

He Miao didn't answer him and changed the subject directly.

When she was about to get up, the person next to her carefully pulled the corner of her clothes and wouldn't let go.

"I just opened the window a little. Don't you feel stuffy?"

"do not think so."

Xu Mobai shook his head honestly.

He Miao stood up and pushed open the window. The hazy night was filled with cool air.

As soon as she sat back down, the person next to her immediately held her hand again.

"I'm not leaving. My bed is right here."

He Miao pointed to the table beside him and said, "I can do a few questions."

Hearing this, the people around him seemed to calm down, but they still didn't let go.

He Miao sat upright in front of the table and started doing the questions very seriously.

Xu Mobai looked at her and felt his heart suddenly burning, like a bonfire on a spring night.

"Miaomiao."

"Ok?"

"The watch you gave me had no battery and it never worked."

There was an imperceptible sadness hidden under his drooping eyelashes.

"Time... never moves."

He Miao came back to his senses from his chaotic thoughts and tilted his head to ask, "No batteries?"

She suddenly remembered that she had been complaining about him never wearing it...

"I thought you disliked it and didn't want to wear it."

"I'm waiting for you to send me the battery."

His eyes fell on her face, "So that my time can start moving again."

The cold night outside, along with his words, echoed in the room and reached her heart.

"Don't look at other people's bodies. If you want to look, you can look at mine. You can do whatever you want to me."

Xu Mobai suddenly remembered what He Miao had said before. When he was not around, her life went on as usual and time went on as usual.

He stroked her little finger tenderly, lovingly and reluctantly.

"Abs?"

He Miao suddenly remembered the scenery he saw when he unbuttoned his clothes.

After all, she still had some humanity. She corrected the person in front of her, "Xu Mobai, you are sick, not drunk."

Then, she covered him with a blanket and said self-deprecatingly, "I'm the one who's drinking."

It has indeed been a long time since they last saw each other, and He Miao even seemed to have forgotten how they got along with each other before.

"Sleep well and be quiet."

As he said this, He Miao forcibly smoothed his eyes and forced him to sleep.

Xu Mobai was really obedient. He behaved himself and closed his eyes and went to sleep.

The time at the table passed by minute by minute, and in the quiet night, there was only the sound of He Miao writing and drawing.

However, in less than half an hour, He Miao felt sleepy.

It turns out that homework is the best sleeping pill, especially math and physics.

When she saw densely packed numbers in mathematics, she felt dizzy, and when it came to physics, her consciousness would start to wander to an unknown place in less than five minutes.

He Miao patted his forehead and became much more sober and continued to study.

As he wrote, his posture began to become crooked and his body was almost sticking to the table.

"here."

Suddenly, a clear and gentle voice came from behind her, and then a bony hand suddenly fell on her test paper.

"Ok?"

He Miao turned around unexpectedly and saw Xu Mobai sitting behind her.

The two of them were so close that she could even feel his warmth on her back.

The dim light reflected on his handsome profile. He turned his head to look at her, a smile spreading across his lips, like melting snow in winter.

She just happened to look up and he just happened to lower his eyes, and the two of them looked at each other, and the moment their eyes moved, their souls could be hooked away.

“This is wrong.”

His voice brought her back to reality.

Without caring about where he went wrong, she started to blame him.

"Why did you get up? Aren't you still running a fever?"

As she said this, she was about to push him back onto the bed.

The unprepared Xu Mobai was pushed down by He Miao.

She pressed on him, with the two of them in an upper and lower position.

He held her and didn't let her move, and she didn't plan to get up...

Suddenly, the temperature in the room began to rise, and the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous...

"I told you to have a good rest. You are so weak."

He Miao couldn't stand this posture anymore, so he finally got up and straightened his clothes.

She raised her eyes and met his gaze again. He looked indifferent, too calm.

It was as if the person who had said that she could treat him casually and the person with red ears lying under her just now was not him.

Xu Mobai also pulled down the clothes that He Miao had pushed on and coughed lightly, "It's much better now."

"and many more!"

He Miao reached out her hand to his forehead, and he cooperated with her obediently, even leaning forward.

"Isn't this still hot?"

"This is a normal temperature, not a fever."

Xu Mobai pushed her hand away.

"If it's not a fever, then why is your face so hot......"

As he was talking, He Miao himself started to think in the wrong way.

Realizing how awkward the atmosphere was, she took the initiative to change the subject.

"Then why did you lose contact for so long?"

He Miao remembered that not long after Xu Mobai left, one day, they completely lost contact.

"During that time, my cell phone was missing, and something else happened..."

Xu Mobai seemed reluctant to recall the scene at that time.

He lost contact with her during that period, and after that he was somewhat afraid to contact her.

"Is everything resolved?"

He Miao guessed from the beginning that he was going back to deal with some family matters, although he didn't know what they were specifically.

Hearing this, Xu Mobai nodded.

"Suddenly I feel that our lives are not easy."

She suddenly felt emotional and had a sense of sympathy for Xu Mobai.

As they talked, He Miao noticed that the atmosphere changed from ambiguous and awkward to depressed, so he changed the subject.

"Xu Mobai, I can get more than 300 points now."

Speaking of this, He Miao was a little excited, and boasted to him, "Hu Da... the teacher said that I can only go to a junior college now, but I have to maintain a score of more than 400 to have the possibility of going to college."

"Well, I know you have been working hard, and your efforts will eventually be seen."

Xu Mobai raised his eyelashes and looked at her with a serious expression.

"There's still more than a month left. I should still have a chance, right?"

"Ah."

"Thanks for the note."

Both the initial basic version and the advanced and sprint versions obtained last semester have brought a lot of help to He Miao.

"I'm still using the method you taught me before, and I won't make the same mistake again."

He Miao naturally told him about her growth and changes during his absence.

"You can live well when I'm not around."

Xu Mobai suddenly murmured in a low voice, as if he was relieved, but also as if he was lost.

"He Miao, happy eighteenth birthday!"

Before the end of the day, Xu Mobai gave He Miao his last blessing.

Then he took out a small box from his coat and said, "He Miao, let's be together."
