This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 20

Without Older Sister Zhou around at night, Yi Ming imagined endless scenes, such as Jiang Wei saying gently, "Why don't you just stay over tonight?"; or him lying on the sofa watching TV dramas while Jiang Wei quietly handed him a blanket to put on the sofa; or at the very least, even if Jiang Wei didn't let him stay over, the two of them could at least look at the moon and count the stars!

But Yi Ming did not expect that the old saying "Most things don't go as planned" seemed to have taken on new meaning when applied to him.

It wasn't just most things - it was clearly ten out of ten things going badly, who knows, it might even trigger some kind of nuclear fission and give him an unexpected nasty surprise...

After dinner, Yi Ming mischievously tricked Xiao Shi into the kitchen with a bone and shut it in, then curled up with Jiang Wei on the sofa to watch a silly romance drama.

"One look at the screenwriter of this TV series and you can tell they've never been in love."

Yi Ming reached into the bag of chips in Jiang Wei's arms and popped a chip into his mouth with a loud "crunch".

"If you can do better, then do it yourself."

Jiang Wei glanced at him disdainfully.

"I can't do better either, I've never been in love." Yi Ming's clear, bright eyes stared at Jiang Wei. He gently bumped her leg with his knee and laughed, "Hey, practice makes perfect. Do you want to consider being my test subject? I have to at least try before I know if I can write a good story."

Jiang Wei covered his wicked peach blossom eyes with her hand without even looking at him: "Watch TV."

Just then, the light bulb overhead suddenly went out with a "pop" and the power in the house went out.

Jiang Wei rummaged through boxes and cabinets looking for a flashlight. Just as she found one, there was suddenly a muffled "thud" from behind.

It turned out that because of his height, Yi Ming had wandered around randomly in the dark and knocked his handsome face directly into the door frame, which was too low in Jiang Wei's home.

Yi Ming ran to the sofa making a racket and yelling grievances: "Jiang Xiao Wei, my face hurts."

Jiang Wei couldn't resist him. She took the small flashlight and tentatively squeezed Yi Ming's fair face, "It doesn't seem like anything's wrong..."

"How could nothing be wrong? Jiang Xiao Wei, what were you looking at? Didn't you see something's missing from my face?"

Jiang Wei's heart skipped a beat. Was it really that serious? If a piece of flesh was missing, how could she have not noticed?

Just as she was about to lean over to look again, she heard a rascal voice laughing softly from the sofa: "What's missing is a kiss... Jiang Wei, hurry up and compensate me..."

Jiang Wei was speechless: "......"

The next second, a pillow came flying over with a "whoosh".

If kissing was out of the question, then feel what it's like to have an intimate encounter with this pillow!

In fact, this little situation was just a drizzle compared to the bigger storms brewing for Yi Ming that night.

Jiang Wei was worried that the power outage might scare Xiao Shi. She called out softly looking for it all over the house before realizing Xiao Shi had not appeared in her line of sight for almost an hour.

When she opened the kitchen door, Xiao Shi excitedly slipped through the crack. Jiang Wei was caught off guard and scared, losing her footing and falling headfirst onto the floor...

Three minutes later, Yi Ming carried her with blood dripping down her head as he anxiously tried to hail a taxi downstairs.

Jiang Wei rested her head on Yi Ming's shoulder, powerless to say: "Yi Ming, if you can't get it then you'll destroy me..."

At that moment, the usually carefree smile in Yi Ming's eyes had completely disappeared. His heart felt like a hundred roosters were trampling on it and randomly jumping around.

"Jiang Xiao Wei, don't talk. I'm taking you to the hospital now."

"What if I die today, Yi Ming?"

There were no taxis on the road. Yi Ming anxiously strode towards bigger streets, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm just saying, what if."

"If you die today, then I'll marry you at the hospital. Don't worry, I won't let you go without making you my wife first."

"What if I don't die, but become disabled?"

"Then I'll have even more reason to marry you."

Jiang Wei was stunned. Her voice grew weaker and gentler, "Why?"

"If you're disabled, who would dare marry you anyway. I'll just reluctantly take you in since I'll end up paying for you sooner or later." Yi Ming's mouth curved into a smile. The wound on Jiang Wei's head made her feel somewhat weary, but his words warmed her heart with a surge of joy.

She must have accumulated blessings in her previous life to meet him so early, from babbling to the prime of their youth. And most importantly, the one she loved also happened to love her back.
