Fever

"Nanxing, my mom introduced me to a boyfriend. You will never guess who it is." Mai Qi finally told me the truth. Her voice was tired and dejected.

I didn't say anything and waited for her to continue.

"It's Shi Feng." Mai Qi's voice trembled. I could tell she was extremely fatigued dealing with this.

I was shocked. "Is your mother crazy?"

Mai Qi sighed helplessly. "I think so."

"She... What is she after? She is your father's wife, it should be Shi Feng and Shi Li trying to endear themselves to her. Why would she offer you to them?" I could not understand Mrs. Mai. The woman was being too unreasonable.

My righteous indignation calmed Mai Qi down.
