Armor Guardians

Did you figure it out in Chapter 28?

Xia Qianmeng picked up her chopsticks, but the first thing she reached for was not the many meat dishes, but some vegetables. Perhaps... this was just how she was used to eating.

After a long-awaited meal of oily food, Xia Qianmeng felt much less cold in her stomach. She hadn't eaten anything this delicious since Xia Qianxue started living at school.

Then, Xia Qianmeng picked up a bowl of rice with one hand and started eating.

Perhaps it was because Xia Qianmeng hadn't eaten for a long time that her appetite had shrunk, because she felt full after only eating for a short while.

Seeing his son and daughter like this, Xia Wei finally asked his question: "Qianmeng and Qianxue, how have you been all these years?"

"It's alright~" Xia Qianxue replied.

"Yes, it's fine." Xia Qianmeng didn't want her parents to worry, so... she answered with a forced smile.

Seeing Xia Qianmeng's thin appearance, Xia Wei and Xu Fangying weren't fools; they could immediately tell that Xia Qianmeng was lying. However, now that they were back, they thought they could fatten her up again.

"Qianmeng and Qianxue, eat more, look how thin you are~" Xu Fangying said, putting a piece of meat on each of Xia Qianmeng's plates, because in a mother's eyes, her children are always thin.

"Yes, thank you, Mom~" Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue replied at the same time.

Then, Xia Qianmeng asked about the long-lost aroma of meat, how long had it been since she had eaten meat? She had forgotten that question; it had been a very, very long time.

So, Xia Qianmeng carefully put the piece of meat her mother had given her into her little mouth, anticipating its taste.

However, before Xia Qianmeng could even taste the flavor, she suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to vomit, but she knew she couldn't do it here.

Suddenly, Xia Qianmeng stood up, and under the curious gazes of her parents and younger sister, she covered her mouth and hurried out of the room. Although he didn't know why his son had become like this, Xia Wei still chased after her with some concern: "Qianmeng, what's wrong? Where are you going? The toilet is on the right."

Hearing her father's words, Xia Qianmeng, who had no idea where to go, suddenly found her direction and quickly rushed to the right.

Soon, Xia Qianmeng saw the restroom sign, entered the men's room, and went straight into a stall, closing the door behind her...

Hearing the vomiting sounds inside the door, Xia Wei, standing outside, couldn't help but ask again with concern, "Qianmeng, what's wrong?"

Lululu~
Xia Qianmeng turned on the water valve and stared blankly as the bloody food she had vomited was flushed down the drain. It wasn't until she heard her father's shout that Xia Qianmeng came back to her senses.

Click~

Xia Qianmeng turned the doorknob and came out. Although she wanted to pretend that nothing was wrong, Xia Wei could still tell from her increasingly pale face that she was not in good condition.

"Qianmeng, are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the hospital for a check-up?" Xia Wei asked again.

Upon hearing this, Xia Qianmeng dared not agree. If she went to the hospital for a checkup, wouldn't her despairing illness be discovered?

Therefore, Xia Qianmeng naturally refused: "Dad, I'm fine, let's go back~"

Hearing Xia Qianmeng's hoarse and weak voice, Xia Wei became even more certain that Xia Qianmeng had a physical problem. If he couldn't even see this, then he was truly unworthy of being the deputy director.

So Xia Wei thought that if he had the chance, he would definitely take Xia Qianmeng to the hospital for a check-up to see what illness was causing her to be so nervous about being discovered.
