Chapter 377 Past

"new year?"

Lying on the hospital bed, listening to Su, who was her doctor, talking about this matter, Mei was stunned for a moment, then put down the documents in her hands. Even during the recuperation period, she still worked in her free time.

"Well, soon."

Su placed a vial next to her bed and ordered: "Three meals a day, no more."

"Is this medicine?" Mei asked, looking at the white vial.

"No, it's just candy. If you eat too much, you'll get cavities."

"..."

"Your body has developed strong drug resistance. We have begun to develop new drugs for your current physical condition. During this period, we hope you will develop good work and rest habits and relax appropriately."

With that said, Su took away all the documents around Mei, "Don't be too nervous, and have less contact with Honkai products such as the God Key. This is the advice I give you as a doctor and as a good friend. .”

"I know, I know, you've said it many times."

"Then have you ever thought about why I said it so many times?" Su sighed.

"Okay... let's talk about the New Year."

"..."

He knew that Mei was changing the subject, but Su couldn't help it. He couldn't control his former friend who was now the leader of the Fire Chasing Moth.

"Just like before, we can get together during the New Year and have a meal together, but this year it may not be just the three of us..." Mei said.

"Are we going to add Miss Alicia and the others?"

"Yes, if my prediction is correct, she will invite us later, right?" Mei said helplessly, "Alicia likes the feeling of friends gathering together. This is the case in previous years...this New Year Maybe it will be lively?”

"...I can imagine it."

"So, Su, arrange your work in advance. Don't be absent due to work. That would be such a shame..."

"Mei, I think this is a bit weird coming from your mouth." Su kept a slight smile on his face, but Mei could tell that he was speechless inside.

That's right, compared to Su, I am the workaholic who is likely to devote most of his time to work.

"I'm sensible. After all, it's an annual festival, and I don't want to miss it." Mei promised, "In the past, before you came to Fire Chaser, I would put down my work during the New Year and spend time with Kevin. Enjoy the cozy atmosphere.”

"You were not the leader of the Fire Moth at that time." Su said with a smile, "But if you can think of it this way, I will prepare the food needed for the New Year in advance... Will we still eat dumplings this year?"

"Of course, just like before, Kevin and I both like it very much. And for a Chinese like you, it would be unaccustomed not to eat dumplings during the New Year, right?" Mei still remembered that when the three of them were still in school, they would not eat dumplings during the New Year. After arriving, he and Kevin wrapped themselves in coats and came to Su's house. After entering, they could see Su cooking dumplings in the kitchen and waiting for them to come over.

After that, the three of them sat around the dining table, and Kevin volunteered to fill a large bowl for everyone. The first bowl was hers, the second bowl was for Kevin himself, and the last bowl was for Su.

Fortunately, Su didn't care too much about this. Afterwards, the sunny and cheerful Kevin started the conversation and talked about a lot of interesting things about the school, such as who was in love with whom, who broke up with whom, who found a new girlfriend, etc. etc., are all topics that students in their youth often talk about.

Unfortunately, neither Mei nor Su was very interested in this, so it was Kevin who was always talking, and they listened absently, chiming in a few words from time to time.

At the end, Kevin pretended to be sad and said: "Oh... they are all so happy. They have a girlfriend, but it's not like me. I've always been single and I don't know when a girl will fall in love with me~ "

"There are many people who like you. Don't forget that you are the 'Prince' in the school." Su said.

"That's different. They just like my looks. The girl I want to find is best attracted by my inner self~" Kevin said this, and glanced at Mei who was drinking tea quietly from time to time, as if implies something.

No, you are simply plotting something against someone.

Su took a sip of tea and ignored Kevin's look that frantically begged him for help.

"There should be many girls like that. After all, some of your inner qualities are easy to see, and you are the popular kind." Mei spoke, but she didn't know that she had fallen into Kevin's trap.

"What about you, Mei? Do you feel that my inner self is very attractive to you?" Kevin asked impatiently.

"Me?" Mei was stunned for a moment, then stared at Kevin's face for a while, then shook her head after thinking for a moment, "I don't know, I haven't thought about it yet."

Just when Kevin was disappointed, Mei added: "However, there should be more or less, otherwise I wouldn't eat at the same table with you."

"Ahem, Mei, in fact, in addition to being attracted to my inner self, the girl I like also has a few requirements. Do you want to hear them?" Kevin said mysteriously.

"Since you said it, it means you want me to listen, so just listen." Mei motioned for Kevin to continue.

"Then I said it...my first request for that girl is that she has long purple hair..."

"Ah."

"The second requirement is that she preferably wears glasses."

"Ah."

"...The third request is that she must sit next to me now and accompany me to celebrate the New Year!"

"……Um?"

Mei raised her eyebrows, sensing something was wrong. She glanced at Su Na opposite her, who nodded slightly at her, and then at Kevin, whose eyes were full of expectation. She was silent for a while, and said lightly: "That's all? Is there anything else?"

"Ehhhh?!"

As a result, another pursuit of Kevin ended in failure.

Time returns to the present.

"Well, Kevin was really a bit annoying back then." Mei had a headache when she thought of the time when Kevin was stalking her. At that time, she just wanted to study hard and had no idea of ​​falling in love. May had been bothered by this for a long time since Kevin had inserted himself into her life.

"But if Kevin didn't bother you at that time, you wouldn't have the relationship you have now. Some things are destined." Su smiled.

"Yes, it's all fate..."

Mei glanced at the direction of the door, then lay down with her half-sitting body, covered herself with a quilt, and said, "Su, please turn off the lights for me when you go out. I'm a little sleepy after catching a cold."

"...Okay, have a good rest."

Su nodded, turned off the lights, and walked out. But after closing the door, Su said to the man leaning against the wall.

"Kevin, are you coming to visit May too?"
