The room wasn't big, and San Niang was talking loudly, so Shen Zhiqiao heard her.
However, she pretended not to hear him and continued to lick her beans.
She had said countless times in the past three days that he and she were not that kind of relationship, but they didn't believe her at all, so she might as well not say so.
Seeing that she didn't refute his words, Ji Lian Ye's brows twitched.
Looking at her hands that were tied to the white cloth, he walked up to her in a good mood, grabbed the spoon from her hand, and pulled her to the side. He didn't say anything as he started to rub the spoon on her head.
Shen Zhi Qiao was once again horrified, but seeing how he added it so vividly, it seemed like he had also heard this from San Niang just a moment ago.
Ye Zichen twitched his mouth, but didn't say anything.
When San Niang saw the "love" between the two of them, she beamed. She pulled Shen Zhiqiao along and sat in front of the stove, chatting idly.
Ji Lian Ye could be described as beaming with joy. From time to time, he would laugh out loud to scare others.
At first, Shen Zhiqiao and San Niang looked at him, but later on, he laughed more and more frequently and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
It wasn't until the fresh tofu left the wok that Shen Zhi Qiao went back to his room to rest.
However, just as she stepped into the room that San Niang had arranged for her, before she could close the door, one of her feet suddenly stuck in the door. Ji Lianye's tall and strong body also squeezed in.
Shen Zhi Qiao's eyebrows twitched. He didn't close the door and instead stood at the door, frowning. "Ji Lian Ye, it's so late. I want to rest!"
Ji Lian Ye shrugged his shoulders like a cat and smiled, "Alright, I want to rest as well."
"…" Shen Zhiqiao glared at him. "You want to rest up and go back to your room. What are you doing here?"
The corner of Ji Lian's mouth slanted to the side as she walked towards the bed. After sitting down, she raised her head and looked at Ji Lian with bright and shining eyes. "This is my room."
Seeing him bow and take off his shoes, Shen Zhi Qiao could not hold back his anger. He growled, "Ji Lian Ye, you scoundrel!"
It had obviously been her and San Niang's room a few days ago while he and San Niang's husband were in the same room. What was the meaning of coming here to her now?!
Ji Lian Ye laughed instead of getting angry, "How could I be a scoundrel? Third Madame told me to come over. If you don't believe her, you can ask her."
"…" Shen Zhi Qiao choked and his face slowly turned red.
The house was not big, and there were only two bedrooms in total.
Previously, San Niang had decided that they were husband and wife, so she let the two of them live together. But how could she possibly live together with him?
Therefore, she took the initiative to ask to share a room with Third Mother.
Today, it seemed like Third Mother thought that they were truly quarreling. Now that they had made up, she took the initiative to make room …
Ye Zichen clenched his fists and took a deep breath. Never mind, she would go out and live with him if he wanted to.
He used his right hand to carry a quilt from the bed and prepared to leave.
In the instant that he turned, his arm was grabbed.
Shen Zhi Qiao sighed, "Let go, didn't you want to rest?"
"Are you going to spend the night outside with a bed full of cotton wool?" Ji Lian Ye asked.
Shen Zhiqiao shot him a "no" look.
Ji Lianye shrugged her shoulders and put on a smile with her starry eyes. She suggested, "Why don't you sleep in while I sleep outside? You promise not to do anything to me. How about we just stay here for the night?"
Bo Liuzi forced a smile, "Not much?!"
And she promised not to do anything to him? His brain must have spasmed!
He shook off his hand, tucked the blanket under his arm, and made to leave.
Ji Lian Ye clicked her tongue and grabbed her hand again, pulling hard.
Ah!" He was so shocked that he cried out loudly. He panted as he struggled to hold his breath and shouted, "Ji Lian Ye, don't go too far! If you want to sleep, I'll help you! What else do you want?
This time, Ji Lian Ye was surprisingly good-natured. No matter how she shouted, he would always laugh along with her.
He unhurriedly let go of her hand and stood up. He took the blanket from her hands and winked at her with a smile. He said gently, "If you want to go out, it's me. I'm a man …"
Shen Zhi Qiao's mouth formed an 'O' shape. Did this fellow have to be so strange today?!
Ji Lian Ye's smile became softer and softer. He bent down and lightly flicked her nose. With raised eyebrows, he turned around and walked out. He even considerately closed the door for her.
Shen Zhi Qiao looked at the door in surprise. It took him a long time to regain his senses.
He moved his mouth and cursed silently: "Crazy him!"
Shaking his head, he went to the door, locked it, turned off the light and went to sleep.
Ji Lian Ye stood in the cold wind, watching the lights in her room go out, smirking.
After a long while, he suddenly shivered. He wrapped the blanket around himself and sat on the stone bench in front of the stone table.
The next day, San Niang and her wife, who had gotten up early to prepare the market, went out carrying the tofu they had prepared earlier and were surprised to see a monster wrapped up in a ball sitting in front of the table.
The couple glanced at each other before walking up.
Sanniang reached out to pat him on the shoulder and asked tentatively, "Young Master, Young Master …"
Ji Lianye heard someone talking in a daze. She suddenly woke up with a start. Her eyes were still hazy. She wanted to say something, but the moment she opened her mouth, she sneezed.
Third Madame asked doubtfully, "Young Master, you're not resting in your room. It's still so early …"
Ji Lianye replied casually, "It's nothing, I was sleepwalking!"
A sleepwalk?!
"…" Sanniang and his wife were speechless.
He also believed it.
San Niang smiled and said, "Young Master, there's some food left for you in the kitchen pot. When the girl wakes up, she'll be able to eat it once it's hot. I'll go out with her."
Ji Lian Ye sneezed a few more times and nodded.
Third Mother and her husband went out.
Ji Lian Ye blinked her somewhat dry eyes and raised her head to look at the time. The sun had yet to rise, but she remembered what San Niang had said before she left. She wrapped herself up with a blanket and went into the kitchen, dozing off in front of the stove.
Shen woke up in the middle of the afternoon and spent some time in the warm quilt. She didn't get out of bed until her stomach started to growl.
On the way to the kitchen, Shen is still yawning from his sleep, just feeling sleepy.
As soon as she stepped into the kitchen, she saw the person sitting in front of the stove.
The corners of his mouth twitched as he slowly walked over.
When he walked closer, he noticed that there was something wrong with his face. It was extremely red, and his forehead was covered in sweat. Even his breathing was a little hurried.
Shen Zhi Qiao was startled and quickly reached out to push him, "Ji Lian Ye, Ji Lian Ye, wake up …"
After pushing him a few times, his eyelids twitched and he opened his eyes.
His head was swollen and tight.
Ji Lian Ye knitted his brows and pursed his lips. He pulled away the blanket on his body and glanced at her with a reddened eyes, "Why are you up so early …"
Early?!
Shen Zhi Qiao looked at the brightly lit room, before shifting his gaze to Ji Lian Ye's abnormally red face, and asked with a frown, "Ji Lian Ye, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Ji Lian Ye pinched his nose and said, "No problem." As he said this, he was about to stand up. Perhaps he didn't believe that he couldn't even stand properly while training, so he stood up in a hurry. Just as he straightened his legs, he swayed and sat back down.
Shen Zhi Qiao was shocked, "Ji Lian Ye, are you alright?"
