“Little Jiu, you should stay in the same room as us.” When Madam Sheng heard that Sheng Jiu was going to stay with Shen Xiuwen, she was so frightened that she almost said that Sheng Jiu was a girl. Men and women should not touch each other. How could her daughter sleep with a man?! However, when she thought of what Sheng Jiu had said about not revealing her identity, Madam Sheng endured it and did not reveal her identity as a girl. Yes, Little Jiu was a good child. She knew her character. Even if she slept for the night, it would be fine. It would definitely be fine.

“Mom, don’t worry. I can do it.” Sheng Jiu gave Madam Sheng a firm look. She knew what Madam Sheng was worried about.

Madam Sheng said, “Then share a room with Fourth Brother Shen. Don’t disturb him.”

Sheng Jiu said, “Okay.”

Sheng Jiu followed behind Shen Xiuwen and entered his room. The room was decorated in a cold and harsh style that matched Shen Xiuwen’s temperament.

“The bed in my room is very big, so you won’t be squeezed,” Shen Xiuwen said faintly. Sheng Jiu glanced at the bed. Yes, it was very big. It was fine for two people to sleep in the middle, but she refused to sleep on the same bed as Shen Xiuwen.

“Fourth Brother Shen, I’ll sleep on the sofa,” said Sheng Jiu.

“If you don’t want to sleep on my bed, then do you want to sleep on Miaomiao’s bed?” Shen Xiuwen asked coldly.

Sheng Jiu said, “I don’t…”

Shen Xiuwen: “Don’t even think about Shen Miaomiao. If she’s crazy, are you going crazy too? You’re a fool, not a lunatic.”

When Sheng Jiu heard this, she was really hurt. So, in Shen Xiuwen’s eyes, she was a complete fool?

“Sheng Jiu, do you like Miaomiao?” Shen Xiuwen usually did not care much about such things, but he was quite curious about Sheng Jiu’s thoughts. Outsiders said that Sheng Jiu’s IQ was like that of a kindergarten child. With such an IQ, how did he know to like girls?

Sheng Jiu was silent as she stared at Shen Xiuwen with her bright black eyes. How was she going to answer this question? It was wrong whether she liked her or not. This was a fatal question! Hence, she chose to play dumb and not answer!

“Sheng Jiu, you’re not qualified to be my brother-in-law.” Shen Xiuwen saw that Sheng Jiu was pretending to be stupid, and his teasing mood instantly disappeared.

“I don’t…” Sheng Jiu wanted to explain. She didn’t want to be Shen Xiuwen’s brother-in-law! Besides, even if she wanted to be, her body wouldn’t allow it!

“Go take a shower.” Shen Xiuwen threw a set of pajamas at Sheng Jiu.

Sheng Jiu refused. “No need, Fourth Brother Shen. I’m not used to wearing other people’s clothes.”

“I don’t like other people wearing my clothes either. These pajamas are new. Go in and take a shower.” Shen Xiuwen ordered Sheng Jiu to take a shower with a deep voice. Could it be that Sheng Jiu was also a clean freak?

The pajamas were Shen Xiuwen’s size. When Sheng Jiu put them on, she looked like a child wearing adult clothes. She was only 1.7 meters tall, while Shen Xiuwen was almost 1.9 meters tall. This pajamas was more than two sizes too big for her! Sheng Jiu was in a dilemma in the bathroom for a long time. In the end, she came out in the pajamas. Anyway, she had already wrapped her chest inside, so the loose pajamas could cover a lot.

“Sheng Jiu, you’re too skinny. Does the Sheng family feed you?” Shen Xiuwen frowned as he stared at Sheng Jiu’s shriveled body. Did this kid not often eat? He thought of how light she had been when she hugged him at the hotel.

Sheng Jiu said, “They do.”

“Eat more meat in the future. Otherwise, any woman can pounce on you.” When Shen Xiuwen thought of how Chu Ling’er pounced on Sheng Jiu and almost ate him, he felt that Sheng Jiu was really useless. He stared at Sheng Jiu’s fair face for a while. Perhaps it was because she had just taken a shower, but her face was pale and red. She was very beautiful. No wonder Shen Miaomiao, who was obsessed with looks, could not move when she saw Sheng Jiu. If he did not know that Sheng Jiu was a man, he would have suspected that Sheng Jiu was a woman.

“Hurry up and go to bed after you’re done showering.” Shen Xiuwen looked at Sheng Jiu, who was standing there motionlessly, and felt a little disgusted. Sheng Jiu actually needed someone to tell her to take a shower and go to bed?

“Fourth Brother Shen, I’m not used to sleeping on the same bed. I’ll sleep on the sofa.” Sheng Jiu sat down on the sofa, looking like she was not prepared to go to bed at all.

“You sleep on the bed. I’ll sleep in Second Brother’s room.” Shen Xiuwen looked at Sheng Jiu with his deep eyes and then left. He was also not used to sleeping on the same bed with others. He only allowed Sheng Jiu to sleep with him because he did not want Shen Miaomiao to drag her into her room. A man and a woman alone in a room. Shen Miaomiao looked like she could not wait to swallow Sheng Jiu. The Shen family’s reputation could not be ruined like this.
