Without drinking, Li Mingxi just ate voraciously, clearly showing she had serious matters on her mind.
Jian Yufei tried to find a topic to divert her attention.
"Cousin, is there any progress with my condition?"
She hadn't asked yet, but once she did, Li Mingxi's emotions became even more off.
She put down her chopsticks, unable to swallow the sushi in her mouth.
"Water..." Li Mingxi was choked, uncomfortably pounding her chest.
Jian Yufei quickly poured her a glass of water.
Li Mingxi drank the water and then fell into a long silence.
"Cousin, what's wrong?" Jian Yufei asked uneasily, "Is there something wrong with my condition... again?"
Li Mingxi shook her head, "No, it's still the same."
Indeed, her illness couldn't be cured, what worse could it get?
But why was Li Mingxi reacting this way?
"Cousin, are you hiding something from me?" Jian Yufei tentatively asked.
Li Mingxi glanced at her, her gaze somewhat evasive with guilt.
