If you make a mistake, just admit it. There's nothing to be embarrassed about.

Of course, there are also quite a few teachers who completely forget about this after getting the certificate, and always maintain their teacher's airs.

"Besides, don't worry, I haven't left the house since you came back, so I don't have time to buy things like that."

".It is also possible that you bought it in advance and then waited for the opportunity to feed it to me." Jiu Huayue's words were obviously not as strong as before.

"You hungry?"

“Still hungry”

"Then why don't you eat it? Don't say you're worried that I drugged you. I know you're just making excuses for yourself."

“.”Jiuhuayue did not answer.

Fujii Itsuki knew that she was very proud, and figured out why she was unwilling to accept it, so he said:

"It's not the food I made myself, so there's no need to take it so seriously. You don't have to feel like you owe me a favor for doing this. At most, you can deduct the money from my rent and count it as buying it from me. Is that okay?"

"."

Seeing that she was still hesitant, Fujii Itsuki softened his voice, like a teacher educating a student:

"Jiuhua, I don't know what you went through today, but I don't think it was a good thing, otherwise you wouldn't have kept your head down when you went home today. You don't want to tell me, and I respect your choice and won't ask too much. However, if others let you down, don't let yourself down, and learn to take care of your body. Eat something if you're hungry. It's not good food, but at least it can fill your stomach."

Jiuhuayue had never heard him speak in that voice before and gave him a curious look.

But I am still hesitant whether to accept it.

The boiled water has gone cold.

She was still standing there stupidly, and Fujii Itsuki was also standing there stupidly with her.

This girl is really not frank at all.

Don’t you feel cold?

Anyway, Fujii Itsuki was already beginning to feel the air was freezing cold.

He didn't want to waste his time in this meaningless confrontation, so he helped the girl heat up the lunch box again, boiled the water, and prepared to leave the living room.

"I'll leave the lunch box and instant noodles here. If you don't want to eat them, just leave them there until I get up tomorrow morning to clean them up. If you want to eat them, remember to eat them quickly. It's easy to catch a cold if you stay up too late in the middle of the night."

After saying that, he returned to his room.

Jiu Huayue, who was left alone in the living room, watched Fujii Itsuki disappear, and then turned her gaze to the two portions of food he had prepared for her on the table.

She thought it was ridiculous.

The first person who cared about me and asked me what happened today was the perverted uncle I hated the most.

This perverted uncle not only cared about his own situation, but also found himself out looking for food in the middle of the night and saved face for himself by leaving these two simple meals.

She couldn't quite understand the thinking of this perverted uncle.

Thinking about it carefully, this perverted uncle always said some very rude and annoying words, but he really did not pose any real threat to me, nor did he touch me, and I didn't even get those guys to look at me with disgust.

Jiuhuayue's eyes once again fell on the two simple dishes on the table.

Maybe the perverted uncle is indeed a perverted uncle, but is he really a good person as the dean said?

Jiu Huayue remembered him standing at the door at night, ready to go out to look for her.

Why would he notice that I didn't go home? There was obviously no relationship between them, just a contract of mutual exploitation.

I am just a stranger to him, right?

It's strange to make several phone calls and go out at night to look for a stranger, isn't it?

If I committed suicide, it would have nothing to do with him, right?

Why meddle in other people's business and why did you choose to stop yourself that day.

I clearly want to attribute all these problems to his evil intentions towards me, but I always feel that it is not the case.

Is this perverted uncle really a good person?

Jiuhuayue was extremely conflicted, but finally her eyes fell on the lunch box and instant noodles on the table.

Snowflakes were falling outside the window, and the air inside was cold and quiet late at night.

The girl held her stomach and sat down at the dining table.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the hunger in her stomach. After muttering "thank you" quietly, she started eating.

Chapter 15: Sickness and Stubbornness

"Ahh. A-choo!"

Damn, I have a cold.

Fujii Itsuki's eyes were half closed. He pinched his nose with a tissue, blew his nose, and threw it into the trash can full of white paper.

Harmful.

Every time I say I'm too lazy to meddle in other people's business, I always end up meddling in other people's business.

It was just that last night I saw that girl looking depressed and thought of myself, so I thought of at least taking care of her, but in the end I ended up suffering.

I was like this when I was a teacher, always meddling in other people’s affairs.

At that time, he spent ten days providing psychological counseling and ideological education to a poor student.

He also helped the student to make up the notes that he had not completed in the textbook, and taught him to study hard in the future.

As a result, the student promised himself the day before that he would listen to the class carefully.

The next day, after school, he hid in a corner of the campus and burned the textbooks in which he had made notes.

Fujii Itsuki was so angry when he saw it.

Even so, the school still wants him to continue to influence and educate the other party.

It's really difficult.

".A-choo!"

Fujii Itsuki stretched out his hand to the bedside, trying to touch the tissue, but found nothing.

"Ah sneeze!"

My nose is running and I have run out of tissues.

I had a terrible headache and dizziness in my head, and my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't lift them.

Fujii Itsuki reluctantly put on the cotton coat that Chitose had given him yesterday, and walked out in his fluffy slippers.

When he came to the living room to find some tissue paper, he suddenly realized that the lunch box and instant noodles on the table were gone.

It seems that Jiuhuayue couldn't resist being hungry last night and ate both of them in the middle of the night.

However, he could not feel any joy from helping others. Instead, he thought he was bringing trouble upon himself.

Not to mention that I stood with her stupidly for a long time yesterday, but when I see that girl today, she will definitely have that disgusted expression on her face again, and will even call herself the name she hates the most - "perverted uncle".

After finding some paper in the living room, Fujii Itsuki went to the bathroom to blow his nose.

He ran some hot water to wash his face, but his head was aching so badly that he had to stagger back to his room, grab his wallet, and prepare to go out to buy some cold medicine.

Coincidentally, I met Jiu Huayue coming downstairs.

The girl was wearing thick clothes, deliberately changing into a blue windbreaker and khaki overalls. It seemed as if she was using men's clothes to deliberately cover up her slender figure.

Her long hair was not let down, but tied into a bun, revealing her snow-white neck.

Fujii Itsuki knew that she did this to reduce her own attractiveness, but in his opinion, this was the child's unique charm that was different from her usual self.

In other words, thanks to her beauty, she now looks more refreshing in Fujii Itsuki's eyes.

Compared to Fujii Itsuki's weakness, she looks full of energy.

The face has a rosy red color that symbolizes health.

Why is she okay?

Fujii Itsuki was completely speechless. He remembered that this child had stood in the living room for most of the day just like him yesterday.

I am a young and middle-aged man, so no matter how I think about it, she should be the one who has a cold today.

Why is it that I am the one who suffers?

Fujii Itsuki pretended not to see her and walked out the door.

".Wait, wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Fujii Itsuki turned around.

Jiu Huayue put her hands on her chest and looked at his face clearly. "Uncle, you seem to be a little bit unwell. Do you have a fever? Or a cold?"

"Yeah," Fujii Itsuki responded with a heavy nasal voice, "That's right, what do you want?"

The girl hesitated for a few seconds, stared at his red face, and said, "I still have a fever-reducing patch, do you want to use it?"

These words, which showed a hint of concern, surprised Fujii Itsuki.

He looked at her, then looked out at the gray sky where snowflakes were falling.

The snow is a bit heavy today.

His head was so dizzy that he didn't want to think at all.

"Don't you hate me?"

"Don't get me wrong! I'm not concerned about you! It's just that I ate your food last night and I owe you a favor. This is an equal exchange, that's all."

".You are quite good at giving back."

"I don't like to owe favors to anyone, even if it's you, an old man I hate. So do you want to use my fever-reducing patch?"

Fujii Itsuki felt dizzy and uncomfortable. He didn't want to say anything more, so he nodded.

"Then go back to your room and lie down. I'll go upstairs to get the fever-reducing patch."

Fujii Itsuki returned to his room and lay down on the bed.
