Ye Xiaofei glanced at Ning Xiaoyu, who was tense and even trembling, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter, saying, “What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that 1’11 take advantage of you?”

“Not really, just… just…” Ning Xiaoyu fidgeted and couldn’t come up with a reason.

Ye Xiaofei played with the zipper, and the back of his hand happened to touch Ning Xiaoyu’s skin, making her even more nervous.

Ye Xiaofei teased her on purpose, “What’s there to be nervous about? When we used to live together, 1 even accidentally saw you while you were taking a bath.”

Ning Xiaoyu became even more embarrassed and complained, “Brother Xiaofei, you’re so bad for bringing that up…”

“What 1 mean is, we’re so close, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about showing your back. Look at those celebrities wearing dresses; many of them have their entire backs exposed. Besides, when you go swimming at the beach, you wear swimsuits that show a lot, don’t you?”

Ning Xiaoyu relaxed a bit and said, “Brother Xiaofei, then explain this: were you intentionally intruding back then?”

Ye Xiaofei immediately said, “God be my witness, 1 entered by mistake. You were just a little girl back then; how old were you? What was there to see?”

Ning Xiaoyu objected, “Who told you that? Girls develop early; 1 was… I was already quite big back then.”

“You were only twelve at that time. What do you mean by ‘quite big’?” Ye Xiaofei initially thought Ning Xiaoyu was referring to her age, but quickly realized, “Oh, you mean that. Well, I didn’t pay attention; I ran out in fright as soon as I saw you taking a bath.”

Ning Xiaoyu complained, “Hmph, you peeked; you just won’t admit it.”

Ye Xiaofei cleared his throat. That time, although he did intrude by mistake, he did steal a glance or two, but he couldn’t admit it now; otherwise, his image would be greatly damaged in front of Ning Xiaoyu.

He sighed and said, “Since that incident, you’ve been avoiding me and not talking to me. You must think I’m a pervert.”

“Not at all,” Ning Xiaoyu whispered, “1 just don’t know how to face you. I’m afraid you might do something bad to me. If my mom found out, she would kick you out.”

Ye Xiaofei paused for a moment and said, “You’re not afraid that I’ll do something bad to you. You’re afraid that if I did something bad, Auntie would find out?”

Ning Xiaoyu quickly said, “No, no! I’m just afraid you’ll bully me.”

Ye Xiaofei closed the zipper and then placed his hands on Ning Xiaoyu’s shoulders, making her turn around to meet his gaze. In his heart, there was a warmth that couldn’t be put into words.

“Brother Xiaofei, what… what are you doing?” Ning Xiaoyu was a bit flustered, her voice soft as a mosquito, her long eyelashes trembling, but she didn’t dare to look at Ye Xiaofei.

Ye Xiaofei suddenly leaned in and gently kissed her forehead, saying, “You’re such a silly girl. 1’11 treat you well for the rest of my life. Otherwise, 1 won’t be worthy of you.”

Although it was just a gentle kiss on the forehead, Ning Xiaoyu’s face instantly turned crimson, and she became dizzy. Her body softened, and she leaned against Ye Xiaofei’s embrace, saying, “Brother Xiaofei, Xiaoyu will also treat you well.”

Ye Xiaofei gently wrapped his arm around Ning Xiaoyu’s shoulder. At that moment, he felt an overwhelming warmth in his heart, without any chaotic thoughts.

Ye Xiaofei had always lacked family, so Ning Xiaoyu and her mother were his families, the most special presence, the people closest to him.

“Knock, knock!”

The sound of knocking echoed, followed by a woman’s voice from outside.

“Please don’t take too much time in the fitting room. The fitting rooms are not soundproof.”

Though it wasn’t explicitly stated, it was a reminder for them to leave quickly and not engage in anything inside.

Ning Xiaoyu suddenly pushed Ye Xiaofei away, shyly wanting to find a place to hide. “You should leave quickly. People will get the wrong idea.”

Ye Xiaofei chuckled lightly and said, “We haven’t done anything wrong, so why be afraid? Let’s go out together.”

With that, Ye Xiaofei directly pulled Ning Xiaoyu out of the fitting room.

A staff member stood at the door, and her gaze held suggestive scrutiny.

Ye Xiaofei rolled his eyes and said, “The quality of your clothes is problematic. The zipper couldn’t even be pulled up, causing my sister a lot of trouble.”

The staff member rolled her eyes and walked away. Although she didn’t say anything else, her meaning was obvious: if they weren’t called out, they might have caused some trouble.

“It’s all your fault, making people misunderstand,” Ning Xiaoyu scolded as she lightly hit Ye Xiaofei.

Ye Xiaofei defended himself, saying, “How can you blame me? You asked me to come in and help you with the zipper.”

“I didn’t ask you to come in. Ah, Xiaofei, you’re really bad. A girl is changing clothes, and you just barged in. Were you trying to peek?” Although Ning Xiaoyu appeared a little fierce, she was like a small kitten. Even if she seemed fierce, it only made people find her cute.

Ye Xiaofei was warmed by Ning Xiaoyu’s demeanor and smiled, saying, “Okay, fine, 1 wanted to peek. Unfortunately, I didn’t see anything.”

“You’re still saying…” Ning Xiaoyu lightly hit Ye Xiaofei, but her smile suddenly froze, and her gaze shifted toward two people outside the store….
