''What can I say to that, mother? I'll be careful not to be so late again,'' Li Yuyan replied still keeping her face averted.
She moved towards her room.
''Should I heat the food or do you want to eat later?''
''I don't wish to eat now, mother. I have a headache; I want to sleep for awhile''.
''Why is your head hurting?'' Grandma Xing followed her into the room really worried now. ''Shall I get you some medicine? Or make you some tea?''
''Mother! Please let me sleep. I don't need anything; if I do I will ask you for it''. Li Yuyan did have a splitting headache by now.
Grandma Xing finally realized her concern was only causing Li Yuyan more trauma. ''Very well; you rest then,'' she said as she turned to leave.
