Chapter 166 Confession Bureau
Liu Yue thought a lot but never imagined that the fact that he let Lu Mingfei in to visit his daughter would be exposed because of a hair.

Of course, he definitely wouldn't know that even if he didn't let Lu Mingfei into the ward during the day, Lu Mingfei would still sneak into Liu Miaomiao's ward at night.

Now that the truth had been revealed, in order to gain leniency from his wife, he had no choice but to confess that he had indeed allowed Lu Mingfei to enter the ward to visit his daughter.

Liu Yue originally thought that his wife Ji Ruyan would be furious after he told this, but Ji Ruyan just sat on the sofa in silence.

"Since when did you let that boy into your daughter's ward?" Ji Ruyan suddenly asked coldly.

Liu Yue quickly replied: "The next day."

the next day……

Was that the day when her daughter's condition began to improve? Ji Ruyan pondered.

Angry? Of course she was angry. Ji Ruyan originally thought that her husband and she were on the same side in this matter, but she didn't expect that there would be a traitor among them.

But now, besides being angry, there are other things to consider.

For example, how to deal with the relationship between that boy and his daughter.

She originally thought that her daughter's condition improved because she gradually relaxed her mindset, but now it seems that in reality, there is no such thing as a mood getting better for no reason.

Ji Ruyan thought that her daughter was obviously in a good mood these two days, and it seemed that it had something to do with the boy named Lu Mingfei.

And I smile even in my dreams.

The doctor said that Miaomiao was sick because of too much mental stress, and Miaomiao's condition improved because the boy named Lu Mingfei visited her every day. Maybe the reason why Miaomiao was under great mental stress before was because I didn't let her contact with Lu Mingfei.

Ji Ruyan rubbed her brows with a headache and suddenly felt depressed, wondering how her daughter could have grown up to be a love-brained person.

But in this case, she would have to re-examine the relationship between Lu Mingfei and her daughter.

Acknowledge him? Not likely. But we can't just lump them together like before. During the three years of high school, it's still okay for Miaomiao to have normal interactions with him, but the relationship can't cross the line.

When both of them go to college and their cognition improves, and Miaomiao comes into contact with boys who are better in all aspects, her relationship with Lu Mingfei will naturally become distant.

I'm just afraid that when they were in high school...

Just as Ji Ruyan was thinking about these questions, the untimely ring of her cell phone suddenly rang. Ji Ruyan picked up the phone from the side, glanced at the caller ID, and was stunned.

After answering the phone, she asked softly, "Miaomiao?"

"Mom..." Liu Miaomiao's voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

Her voice sounded very weak. Ji Ruyan suddenly became nervous: "Miaomiao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again? Wait, I'll come to the hospital..."

"No." Liu Miaomiao on the other end of the phone shook her head and interrupted her mother's words.

She took a deep breath, opened her mouth, and said with all her strength: "Mom, I want to talk to you about the thing you told me last time..."

……

After hanging up the phone, Liu Miaomiao let out a long sigh from the bottom of her heart, stuffed the phone under her pillow, and turned to look at the moon outside the window.

The inpatient department of a private hospital is very quiet, perhaps because there are not many patients here. Liu Miaomiao doesn't know if public hospitals are also so quiet. They should be much noisier than here, right?
A sudden sound came from the door, "Dong, Dong, Dong", three knocks on the door.

Liu Miaomiao tilted her head. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. Her parents had already returned home. Yiran's house was curfew, so her parents would definitely not allow her to go out at this time. As for Lu Mingfei, he usually came even later, and he never went through the main door, but only through the window.

Liu Miaomiao pondered for several seconds, but couldn't figure out who would come at this time, so she spoke first:
"Please come in, the door is unlocked."

After getting permission, the door was slowly pushed open with the friction sound of metal hinges. This sound is always particularly harsh at night.

After seeing who the person was, Liu Miaomiao was stunned, but she immediately reacted and greeted the other party:

"Good evening, Qiangqiang." Liu Miaomiao said with a smile, "Why are you here so late?"

Su Xiaoqiang placed a bunch of beautifully packaged perfumed lilies beside Liu Miaomiao's bed and said with a smile, "What's wrong, Miaomiao? Don't you welcome me?"

Unexpectedly, Liu Miaomiao pursed her lips and answered very straightforwardly: "To be honest, it's not very welcome."

Su Xiaoqiang suddenly paused briefly, obviously not expecting Liu Miaomiao to speak so bluntly.

But after a moment, she shrugged her shoulders and sat down on the edge of the bed as if no one was around.

"Anyway, you let me in. Whether you welcome me or not, I won't leave." Su Xiaoqiang said indifferently. I don't know who he learned this shameless behavior from.

"You guy..."

Liu Miaomiao withdrew her gaze from Su Xiaoqiang, looked at the ceiling, pulled the quilt up to her shoulders, and huddled in the quilt obediently, saying softly: "...How annoying."

"Why are you not welcoming me?"

Su Xiaoqiang crossed his legs, put his left hand on his smooth thigh, supported his right elbow on his knee, and looked at Liu Miaomiao with interest: "Did you fall asleep just now?"

"No, I've been thinking about something." said Liu Miaomiao.

"Sorry, sorry, did I disturb you?"

"It doesn't matter. I don't want to think about it now anyway." Liu Miaomiao said, and turned her eyes from the ceiling to Su Xiaoqiang, "Did you come to see me specially?"

"That's about right." Su Xiaoqiang said, "There are also things I want to tell you."

"what's up?"

Su Xiaoqiang glanced at Liu Miaomiao's expression, and the words "Then I said it" were written in his hesitant eyes.

Liu Miaomiao didn't respond.

"A few days ago... ah, it was Saturday." Su Xiaoqiang said dryly, as if it didn't matter, "Did you go to the music salon held at the Prens Hotel?"

After realizing that Liu Miaomiao seemed to have a strange attitude towards him in the afternoon, Su Xiaoqiang had already started to doubt some things. After asking the housekeeper Uncle Li, he learned that on the same day as the premiere dinner, the Prens InterContinental Hotel also held a music salon for a famous domestic female pianist, and Su Xiaoqiang had a bold guess in his mind.

That is, it is very likely that Liu Miaomiao saw herself and Lu Mingfei attending the dinner together that day.

If this is true, then Liu Miaomiao's change in attitude towards him can be explained. Combined with the time when Liu Miaomiao fell ill, maybe her illness this time was also related to witnessing him and Lu Mingfei attending the dinner.

The only thing that cannot be confirmed is what Liu Miaomiao saw that day.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoqiang felt a little uneasy in her heart. She hesitated for a long time. It was not convenient to ask about this matter during the day with Lu Mingfei and Qiao Yiran present. And it would be too late to ask at school after the National Day holiday.

After thinking it over again and again, she decided that it would be most appropriate to come to Liu Miaomiao tonight to ask her about this matter clearly.

Liu Miaomiao was also very surprised to hear that Su Xiaoqiang came to ask her about this matter. But she nodded immediately and said, "Yes."

"Then did you see..."

"Yes, I saw it all." Liu Miaomiao lowered her eyebrows and said softly.

As expected. Just as Su Xiaoqiang thought, Liu Miaomiao went to the music salon that day and saw Lu Mingfei and herself together. Su Xiaoqiang didn't know what she saw, but there must be a misunderstanding.

"Haha, as expected, I was wondering why you suddenly ignored me, Miaomiao. You didn't reply to my text messages or answer my calls."

Su Xiaoqiang smiled and said, "Actually Miaomiao, you misunderstood, but this matter is also my fault. I should have told you about this in advance."

Then Su Xiaoqiang told Liu Miaomiao the whole story of how he asked Lu Mingfei to pretend to be her boyfriend. He even told Liu Miaomiao what happened on the day of the dinner.

Of course, Su Xiaoqiang did not tell Liu Miaomiao that she accidentally fell into Lu Mingfei's arms.

The main reason was that Su Xiaoqiang felt that this matter was not important. In addition, this matter was quite ambiguous and embarrassing, and Su Xiaoqiang felt that speaking about it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

But at the same time, Su Xiaoqiang also assured Liu Miaomiao that he absolutely had no contact with Lu Mingfei beyond classmates. The most intimate contact was dancing at the banquet.

Liu Miaomiao's beautiful eyes gently stared at Su Xiaoqiang's equally attractive eyes. Su Xiaoqiang felt a chill in his back and his nerves suddenly tensed up.

In Lu Mingfei's words, looking at Liu Miaomiao's eyes that are too clear would make people unable to bear to deceive her.

Could it be that she saw that I was hiding something from her? Su Xiaoqiang was in a state of confusion.

After being stared at for an unknown amount of time, Liu Miaomiao finally withdrew her gaze and said, "Well, I believe you."

Su Xiaoqiang suddenly felt relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, I have another question to ask you." Liu Miaomiao said suddenly.

"What's the problem?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.

"You..." Liu Miaomiao said, "Do you like Lu Mingfei?"

The question was so unexpected that Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. He thought, wasn't it because he was afraid that there would be a conflict between his good brother and his good brother's girlfriend that he wanted to explain the misunderstanding between them?

How did the topic suddenly change and become a confession game and truth or dare game?

Su Xiaoqiang was about to deny it decisively, but when he opened his mouth he murmured incoherently. He didn't know when his little heart started beating so panickedly, and his throat seemed to be blocked by an invisible thing, and he couldn't utter a word.

I just felt my body getting weaker and weaker under Liu Miaomiao's gaze. Finally, I saw that the fearless little goddess Su Xiaoqiang was defeated and said weakly: "I, I don't know."

This seemingly evasive answer is actually enough to explain the problem.

"Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" Liu Miaomiao asked.

"I, I haven't thought about this question." Su Xiaoqiang said.

She really hadn't thought about this question. Her attitude towards Lu Mingfei was to always treat him as a buddy. Since they were buddies, there was no such thing as gender. Talking about gender was alienating and not treating him as a buddy!

They can quarrel and make fun of each other, and it's very comfortable to get along with each other. I believe that if you give her a basketball, she can even perform a dribbling collision with Lu Mingfei.

But it’s okay if you don’t think about this kind of problem. Once you start thinking about it from the perspective of gender, everything becomes wrong.

Su Xiaoqiang only felt her ears getting hotter and hotter. She didn't know whether she had really never thought about this question; or she had never thought about it; or she actually never dared to think about it.

Liu Miaomiao had this kind of immature and naive feeling much earlier than Su Xiaoqiang. When she saw Su Xiaoqiang sitting there with a dazed and shy look on his face, she already understood Su Xiaoqiang's true intentions.

"I haven't thought about this question." Liu Miaomiao tilted her head and said softly, "Does that mean you like me?"

"Hello?"

Su Xiaoqiang was so nervous that he almost bit his tongue. He waved his hands and shook his head frantically. The arrogant and imposing little goddess had never been so embarrassed in her life.

"How could I possibly like that guy Lu Mingfei! What's so good about him that makes me like him, and..."

Su Xiaoqiang denied it reflexively and subconsciously began to point out Lu Mingfei's faults, even pointing fingers at them. However, after thinking it over, he found that he could not find even one shortcoming of Lu Mingfei.

Poor grades? That was in junior high school. In high school, his grades were already in the top 70 in Shilan Middle School, which was enough to get into a 985 university. And if you don't count his moral grades, his total score in eight subjects could even make it into the top five!
Poor health? This guy can even beat the instructor. There are probably not many people in Shilan Middle School who can compare with him in physical fitness.

Bad looks? That's even more impossible. Although he looked a little shabby when I first met him, he has become taller and taller after entering high school. He can wear any cheap clothes and look like Armani. It's a lie to say that he is not handsome. He can outshine all the young talents in the city in his Kiton suit.

Poor family background? Before the banquet, Su Xiaoqiang might have thought that Lu Mingfei's family might just be a well-off middle class. But after the banquet, Su Xiaoqiang would not have such an idea. After all, the major shareholders behind the Black Prince Group are all friends with Lu Mingfei's parents. Who knows which river is hidden in the dragon and which mountain is crouching in the tiger?

So, it seems that this guy really doesn't have any shortcomings?

Is this stuff so perfect?
The more Su Xiaoqiang thought about it, the more panicked she became. She suddenly felt that she couldn't think about it anymore. If she continued thinking about it, something really bad would happen. Even Lu Mingfei's image in her mind was about to collapse.

This sense of contrast is like when one day you discover that the ugly duckling neighbor girl who has always been by your side has transformed into a fair, rich and beautiful school beauty without you noticing at some point.
