Chapter 288 - 288: The Forgetful Auntie
Ning Xiaoyu pursed her lips and looked resentful.
Ye Xiaofei said, “This is a kind of psychological barrier. First of all, Auntie had it. Then, her reaction drove us. If this goes on for a long time, this barrier will become bigger and bigger. This won’t do.”
“Then what should we do?” Ning Xiaoyu panicked.
Ye Xiaofei said, “First of all, we have to change ourselves. We can’t treat her differently because of her appearance. We have to treat her like before. Don’t take her appearance to heart. Once she no longer feels our strange gazes on her, she will slowly relax.”
“Oh… That’s true. When 1 saw my mom’s face just now, 1 really didn’t know what to say. Then, my emotions made my mom uncomfortable.”
The two of them discussed for a while and re-examined the way they would interact with Auntie Ning in the future before hanging up.
While showering, Ye Xiaofei stretched out his neck and shouted, “Auntie Ning, I forgot to bring a change of clothes for my shower. Can you help me get it?” “Coming, coming!” Auntie Ning hurriedly walked out of the bedroom and stopped at the door of the bathroom. She said, “I was looking at my phone just now and didn’t hear what you said.”
“Auntie, 1 didn’t bring any change of clothes. Can you help me get it?” Ye Xiaofei repeated.
“Alright.”
A few minutes later, Auntie Ning’s voice rang out from the door again. “Xiaofei, I didn’t find it. It’s not in your closet.”
Ye Xiaofei quickly said, “Then it should be in Xiaoyu’s bedroom?”
“Ah, right, right. Look at my memory.”
Ye Xiaofei couldn’t help but shake his head. Auntie Ning’s body had become younger, but why had her memory become worse? It seemed that she was the one who brought those items to Xiaoyu’s room.
“Xiaofei, 1 found it. I’ll leave it at the door for you.”
After showering and changing his clothes, Ye Xiaofei knocked on Auntie Ning’s door.
“Auntie, are you asleep?”
“Not yet! The door isn’t locked. Come in.”
Ye Xiaofei agreed and pushed the door open.
“Auntie, I still have to give you a simple check-up.”
“What’s wrong?” Auntie Ning asked in a panic. “Do I have any more problems?”
“There’s no big problem,” Ye Xiaofei said. “But 1 feel that you seem to be a little forgetful, so I have to check her again.”
Auntie Ning immediately said in annoyance, “That’s right. I also found that I’ve been very forgetful these past two days. I can’t remember a lot of things.”
Ye Xiaofei carefully examined Auntie Ning’s brain this time, but he still couldn’t find anything. There was nothing wrong with Auntie Ning’s head either; it was still healthy and active.
“Auntie, there’s nothing wrong with your head at all. It’s probably because you’ve been thinking about how you’ve become younger these past few days. It’ll be fine once you get used to it in the future and stop worrying about this matter.”
This was also Ye Xiaofei’s conclusion.
Auntie Ning heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good, that’s good. Xiao Fei, don’t blame me for this. I keep feeling a little anxious.”
Ye Xiaofei immediately smiled and said, “Auntie, Xiaoyu and 1 are happy for you. You should relax too. In a few days, 1’11 take you to Xiaoyu’s place to see what her university is like.”
“Then let’s talk about it in a few days. 1 don’t want to move around yet.”
Ye Xiaofei didn’t try to persuade her further. Loosening the knot in Auntie Ning’s heart wasn’t something that could be resolved overnight.
On the second day of work, Ye Xiaofei woke up early. He had never paid much attention to his appearance, so he specially cleaned up in the morning.
“Eh? Why should I clean myself up?” Ye Xiaofei asked.
An answer instantly appeared in his heart.
“No way. For her? She’s the one with the worst attitude towards me. She’s always bossing me around and throwing a tantrum at me.”
He muttered to himself, but he still couldn’t help but tidy his hair.
“Secretary Ye, why do you look different today?”
Xiao Qingyi sized Ye Xiaofei up.
“What’s different about me?” Ye Xiaofei narrowed his eyes.
“This… Why do I feel like you’ve become more handsome?” Xiao Qingyi’s face turned red.
“Hah hah, you have a good eye.” Ye Xiaofei immediately smiled proudly.
Ye Xiaofei said again, “Oh, right. If you have time today, you’d better help me pick out a few more sets of clothes.”
Meng Zhijing used to buy Ye Xiaofei’s clothes for him, but recently, Meng Zhijing had been busy with other things and rarely spent time with him. His clothes were also thrown all over the place, and there were only a few pieces left.
“Huh?” Xiao Qingyi said in a panic. “It’s Monday today. There must be a lot of things going on with President Fang. I’m afraid I won’t have time.”
“You’re right. Then well talk about it when you’re free. Buying clothes is a headache.”
Ye Xiaofei spoke casually, but he didn’t notice that Xiao Qingyi’s eyes were filled with nervousness and alarm. She didn’t even dare to look him in the eye..
