Does everyone know what food poisoning looks like? Abdominal pain, headache, nausea, vomiting.... Nuan is insisting on typing away in the midst of these symptoms, how pitiful.....

At the sight of Liao Hui, Jiang Xue’s eyes noticeably brightened, and then, her gaze slid over to the others, as she nodded with a faint smile.
"Jiang Xue, what did you mean by slipping that letter into Liao Hui’s pocket?" Zhou Xiangping asked bluntly.
"You found out?" Jiang Xue’s smile remained unchanged, "You discovered it earlier than I expected. I thought there was a chance you might not find it at all."
Zhou Xiangping looked at her coldly, "So, you’re admitting that you wrote the letter?"
"Would it make any difference if I didn’t admit it?" Jiang Xue spread her hands, "You’re asking me like this, do I even have a chance to deny it?"
Zhou Xiangping turned to Liao Hui, "Anything you want to say?"
Nodding his head, Liao Hui looked at Jiang Xue, "Originally, I didn’t want to say these things, but you keep doing things that lead to misunderstandings between us, and I have no choice but to speak up.
From now on, whether it’s professional or personal, I don’t want to have anything to do with you. Don’t go stirring up my mother either. The one I like is Xiao Si, in the past, now, and in the future.
Your little tricks not only fail to leave a good impression on me but actually make me feel that you’re particularly annoying. If I find out about this kind of thing again, don’t blame me for not considering the friendship of growing up together."
"If your relationship with her is really as strong as you say, why should you be afraid?" Jiang Xue stared at Liao Hui, "Is it wrong for me to like you?
We played house as kids, and I was always your ’wife,’ and each time, you would hold my hand warmly. It was you who personally said that once we grew up, you would marry me.
I’m stubborn and took your words seriously. But as we grew older, you started to draw closer to the person you used to hate the most, Zhou Xiangping, until you became a family.
You moved on, but I didn’t. So, I’m not content, and I want to struggle for what is mine. Is that wrong? If you were truly firm in your feelings for Zhou Xiangping, you wouldn’t keep meeting me, knowing full well how I feel.
Liao Hui, do you dare to admit that, in fact, I have a place in your heart, and even more so, that my presence is growing within you? That’s why you’re so eager to set boundaries with me?"
"Unreasonable." Liao Hui’s face turned red with anger, "You were the one who always initiated contact, suddenly appearing in front of me. At first, I thought, since we grew up together in the same courtyard, and I was already married, you wouldn’t harbor those kinds of feelings anymore. So, I thought it was okay to see an old playmate, a friend.
The world is made up of men and women, no one can say that once married, they no longer interact with any member of the opposite sex, right?"
"Am I just an ordinary member of the opposite sex?" Jiang Xue countered.
"So, after realizing your intentions, even when you found me, I stopped acknowledging you. That’s a fact, right?" Liao Hui said, turning to his wife, "The last time I saw her, she was being quite intimate with Director Zhang. I thought she had moved on, so I treated her like a friend again.
After the meal, when we were parting, Director Zhang hugged me and patted me forcefully. At that time, I had drunk a bit too much and wasn’t very alert. Now that I think about it, the letter must have been slipped into my pocket then."
"This matter is in the past, no need for explanations. What I want is for you to make it clear to her in front of us, that you won’t continue to have any dealings with her from now on. That’s enough."
"Heh..." Jiang Xue let out a light laugh and raised an eyebrow at Zhou Xiangping, "Scared? Are you afraid that if he keeps seeing me, he won’t want you anymore?"
"Jiang Xue, how did I never realize you were so shameless before?" Zhou Xiangping stared at her incredulously, "Aren’t you embarrassed by your own actions, yet you speak so righteously?
I don’t want Liao Hui to associate with you, not because I’m afraid you’ll steal him away. To be honest, if he truly had feelings for you, what I’m doing would be utterly pointless.
I just don’t like seeing my man laughing and talking with another woman, especially one who covets him.
Whether or not you can succeed, I can’t give you that opportunity. Call me jealous or petty if you want, I don’t mind. Just understand that you’re not to have any dealings with him from now on, got it?"
Jiang Xue pursed her lips and looked at Liao Hui, who quickly nodded, "What Xiao Si said is exactly how I feel, and as I said before, whether it’s work-related or personal, I don’t want to have any involvement with you."
