Information content: [were you late? You slept late last night, you should take a nap at noon. Let's have dinner together tonight.]
Since Xiao Li is a quick reader, she read everything at a glance. She was absolutely shocked at that glimpse at Xia Zhen's phone, and she could see that there was so much information. First-, by the content, the tone had to be male; Second-, Xia Zhen's late night's sleep the previous night was related to him; Third-, the tone of voice of the message is ambiguous, so, it is evident that the two are not in a normal relations.h.i.+p, and fourth-, they are dating.
"Tell me, who is he?" Asked Xiao Li as she calmly waited for Xia Zhen to come clean by confessing.
With a grin plastered on her face, Xia Zhen frankly said: "Yy boyfriend."
"Boyfriend!" Xiao Li blurted out with extreme surprise, in fact, she wasn't just shocked, she was also confused. Hadn't Xia Zhen always sworn that she will not enter a relations.h.i.+p until she was twenty-eight years old? She's only twenty-five years old now, and I haven't seen her in the company of any man before. Truly shocking.
Xia Zhen likes to look at people who are in shock, thus she nodded with satisfaction at Xiao Li shocked state and answered; "Yes, boyfriend."
Xiao Li got herself together, then she asked: " The guy who kept you up all night last night?"
"Cough.., cough..." Xia Zhen's calm instantly vanishes while wondering, Why are we back to this top again?! It seems like she lost the teasing game for the day, but it looks like she has become a bit more eloquent as well. Moreover, it's not going to be any good to talk nonsense about Pei Cheng An and herself. It will only make her feel bad.
"Hey, hey now. Look at you blus.h.i.+ng with shame, you're all adults, I understand. Haha." Xiao Li looked at Xia Zhen's face, and she was very relieved getting her revenge.
"I'm coughing, okay?!" Xia Zhen said, depressed.
"I met him the day before. It's nothing like you are imagining. Don't say any more nonsense. We're innocent alright." Xia Zhen said.
Eyes squinting into a slit, Xiao Li pulled out a huge smile, as she said: "Did I say anything? I'm just asking if you drank too much with him last night, and if he's the reason behind your getting up seven times last night. What are you thinking? Geez, get your mind out of the gutter."
Upon hearing her make fun of herself, Xia Zhen felt utter and complete defeat. She pushed Xiao Li back to her works.p.a.ce and said; "For your own good life, get back to work."
Xiao Li thinks, tomorrow is another day, she is not in a hurry.
