Chapter 238 Eating Cherries
When they followed their senses to check the dress in their hands, the person who had placed something on the dress also realized that the person touching the dress was not Qiao Mei.
Soon, a cracking sound was heard.
Ao Cang followed the sound and touched a silver-inlaid ruby that was broken into several pieces.
The ruby was very small, about the size of a red bean. Ao Cang picked it up and pulled the dust bag on her skirt down a little to see where it had fallen from.
After a quick look, I noticed that behind what wasn't particularly eye-catching, there was a missing ruby.
However, he didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the ruby was a bit superfluous.
It doesn't seem to make much difference whether it's there or not; having it would just feel a bit cumbersome.
Qiao Mei noticed that Ao Cang kept staring at the clothes and hadn't come back yet. She asked him in confusion, "What's wrong, Cang Cang? Did you ruin the clothes?"
Ao Cang had clearly felt an energy staring at them just now, but it was gone now.
She could only put the skirt back in the dust bag and tell him that he had just broken a ruby.
"But the impact shouldn't be too big. You'll know when you wake up tomorrow."
Since he had already said that, Qiao Mei didn't take it seriously and told him to go to bed and rest quickly, otherwise the medicinal bath would be a waste.
Ao Cang nodded, hung the dress in the wardrobe, turned off the light, and got into bed in the dark.
I thought that following the doctor's advice, my cold would be relieved or even cured by the next morning.
But Qiao Mei discovered that Ao Cang's condition was only slightly better than yesterday.
He became very sensitive to the cold, and even in the early summer, he needed to wrap himself in a thick blanket.
She glanced at the temperature today; it was almost 30 degrees Celsius indoors and nearly 37 or 38 degrees Celsius outdoors. She was already sweating profusely, while Ao Cang was the opposite.
In this way, after touching his cold body, she felt that she no longer needed to use the Ice Bead he gave her; she could just hug him, the human-shaped Ice Bead.
Fortunately, he was only a little dizzy and had no other symptoms, otherwise she would definitely have taken him to see a doctor again.
"The afternoon's match is crucial. You can either lie in bed and rest then, instead of watching the game holographically."
The match lasted all afternoon without a break, and she was worried about Ao Cang's condition.
Ao Cang hugged Qiao Mei's soft body tightly, burying his face in her warm embrace. He inhaled the rose scent that filled his nostrils and said in a low voice, "But I don't want to be unable to be with An'an. An'an, could you move the desktop computer to the bed when the time comes?"
Qiao Mei also has a bed frame for a desktop computer.
Seeing that Ao Cang's face was pale from the cold and he looked very weak, she met his soft, moist golden eyes with her red eyes and couldn't bring herself to refuse.
After sighing, she indicated that she would give it a try.
At most, it will require an adaptation period, but operationally it is estimated that it will not be affected in any way.
Hearing her words, Ao Cang was somewhat satisfied. He hugged her warm body, just like a puppy fussing in its owner's arms, and watched the match video with her.
There were only a few competition videos available for reference. Qiao Mei finished watching them at 10 a.m., which was still early.
She thought she might as well play a few ranked matches and see if she could get lucky and get some new drop materials.
But when she looked down, she saw the boy leaning against her, staring absently at what was in front of her. She asked him, puzzled, "What's wrong, Cangcang?"
She was wearing loose pajamas at home, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with her clothing.
"An'an, are there any cherries left at home?"
"Cherry?" Qiao Mei thought for a moment, then sat up. "Do you want some? I'll go downstairs and check. If they're not there, I'll order takeout."
Ao Cang didn't say anything, and Qiao Mei didn't think much of it either. She got up and went downstairs.
Unbeknownst to him, the Dragon God, still lying on the bed, was only recalling what he had just seen through the fabric.
The more he thought about it, the redder his face became, and even the roots of his ears turned crimson.
Just then, Qiao Mei's personal computer bracelet vibrated.
He knew her password, calmed himself down, and opened the app to see who had sent the message.
[Xu Heyu]: "Don't be too nervous about the afternoon's match. No matter what the result is, let's see how it goes. How about we have a get-together tonight?"
Ao Cang assumed that the dinner Xu Heyu mentioned was just him and Qiao Mei. He frowned, thought for a moment, lay back on the bed, and took a selfie of himself sleeping.
His complexion was still very poor, and his brows were furrowed; it was clear at a glance that he was not in good condition.
After taking the photos, he sent out his selfie and replied in the same tone Qiao Mei used when speaking to others: "Cang Cang is still suffering from a cold, and I need to take care of him, so I won't be going."
After sending the message, Ao Cang, fearing that Qiao Mei would find out, quickly deleted the photos and messages he had sent.
After Xu Heyu replied with "Okay then," she quickly deleted all the messages he had sent.
After quickly finishing all this, Qiao Mei came up as well.
"Cangcang, there are no cherries in the fridge. How about I order some takeout? Pass me the smart bracelet."
Ao Cang shook his head and waited for Qiao Mei to come to the bedside before asking her to come up.
"But we still have cherries at home, so I can eat those."
"Where are the cherries at home?" Qiao Mei took off her shoes and got into bed, thinking that Ao Cang was teasing her. She picked up her smart bracelet and was about to open the food delivery app when a cold body snuggled into her arms again.
"Yes, think about it carefully."
He was very big, and once he snuggled into my arms, it was hard to ignore him.
Qiao Mei's gaze was mostly occupied by him, so she had no choice but to put down the smart bracelet, hug his cool body, and think carefully.
But no matter how I thought about it, I couldn't think of anywhere else in the house to put cherries.
Just as she was about to ask Ao Cang, the boy lying in front of her tightened his grip on her waist, which suddenly made her realize something.
Now I understand why he said that.
"Cangcang, where did you learn that from?" Qiao Mei's eyes welled up with tears because she was too embarrassed.
Even so, if you look closely at the emotions in her eyes, you can see that, in addition to some shock and shyness, there is also some eagerness.
Ao Cang clearly saw through her thoughts, shook his head, and honestly replied, "I didn't learn it from anywhere, it just came to mind suddenly."
He rarely took the initiative, but now that he had gone this far, Qiao Mei had no choice but to compromise and allow him to eat the only remaining cherry in the house.
Before eating, the two agreed not to eat too much, and Ao Cang nodded in agreement.
Ao Cang: Cherries, cherries!
