Chapter 25
That night, just as Jiang Wei was cuddling little Xiao Shi to sleep, someone suddenly came knocking on the door, “dong dong dong”.
"What's the matter, sister Xiao Zhou?"
Jiang Wei sat up slightly, rubbing the hair by her ear. Her first instinct was that it was still sister Xiao Zhou next door. As her mind cleared up a bit, she suddenly remembered that it was Yi Ming standing outside.
"Jiang Wei, come and save me quickly."
The person outside deliberately lowered his voice and mimicked a woman's voice. Jiang Wei was taken aback for a moment, then got out of bed.
She pulled the door open with a "hu" sound and sized up the tall man in front of her from top to bottom, "What's...gotten into you this time?"
"It's thundering."
Yi Ming hugged the pillow with Jiang Wei's photo on it and bit his lips lightly. He raised his hand and pointed at the ceiling, "You know that ever since I was little, I've been most afraid of thunder."
Jiang Wei held it in and sighed softly, "Is that so?"
The guy nodded profusely like pounding garlic.

"But I seem to recall a little monkey who was seven then. He wore his cousin sister's white skirt and stood outside my window to scare me on a stormy night."
"Really? Monkeys can also run out? The zoo is indeed too careless."
Yi Ming had a grave expression.
Jiang Wei said indifferently, "Yes, too careless. Uncle Yi also doesn't know to lock up properly and let it out to bother young girls."
Yi Ming: "..."
Knowing that he couldn't keep up the act, Yi Ming simply turned shameless. He tried to squeeze into Jiang Wei's room sideways.
"The room next door still smells of sister Xiao Zhou’s perfume. You know that I have allergic rhinitis..." Yi Ming walked right into Jiang Wei's room and looked up to see Xiao Shi sitting nicely on the bed. His dark, shiny eyes were fixed on him like black gemstones.
"How can this guy....sleep on your bed?"
Yi Ming stood there, rather shocked, with endless ups and downs in his heart.
His wife-to-be, who hadn't even crossed his threshold yet, was actually sleeping with a..."male dog". And he's literally a dog-man.
At that moment, Xiao Shi looked very calm and didn't even bother to bark, completely disregarding Yi Ming.
"The floor is cold. I gave him a bath," said Jiang Wei, tidying her nightgown while still standing in the doorway without moving. Her expression was light as she continued, "I can bring Xiao Shi to sleep next door. I have no classes tomorrow morning. I’ll open the windows at home to air it out."
Yi Ming lay back on Jiang Wei's bed and threw the pillow aside, "No, I don't mind sleeping with this third party."
Jiang Wei uttered an "oh" and said, "That’s fine too. You keep Xiao Shi company, I’ll go sleep next door then."
Yi Ming: "..."
"Jiang Wei, you're deliberately trying to provoke me!"
Yi Ming sat up straight, his dark pupils fixed on her.
In fact, over so many years of knowing each other since childhood, it wasn't as if Jiang Wei had never slept with Yi Ming before.
Ever since they were young, whenever their parents went on business trips, whether it was the Yi family or the Jiang family, they would leave their child in the care of the other family.
When he was five, little Yi Ming swaggered in holding his own little quilt and lay it straight on Jiang Wei’s bed, "Jiang Wei, there's no one at my home. My dad doesn't feel assured leaving me alone so he asked me to come over and sleep at your place."
Jiang Wei had just finished washing her hair with her mom's help. Her jet-black hair was still damp. She looked at him with her round eyes, "If you sleep here, where do I sleep?"
Little Yi Ming patted the space beside him on the bed. His face held a seriousness beyond his years as he said like a little adult, "Here. After all, I'm going to marry you sooner or later. Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for you."
Jiang Wei: "..."
A smelly kid who played with mud at the muddy beach every day. How could he be responsible for her?
You make one mud ball, I make another. Were they going to play house with mud balls?
