She knew perfectly well what probability was being increased, even if others might not.
I never expected him to become so bold, daring to say such things directly to her.
She was still feeling unwell and tried to push away the boy who was holding her tightly, but his arms were like two iron clamps, and she couldn't break free at all.
There was nothing I could do but give up and let him be.
When she woke up the next day, it was already almost afternoon outside.
This was one of the few times she had ever overslept. Frowning, she sat up, her body still aching terribly, and called out to Ao Cang, "Cang Cang, where are you? Has my mother come looking for me during this time?"
She called out, but didn't hear Ao Cang's voice for a long time. Instead, she heard noises coming from the bathroom.
After thinking for a moment, I lifted the covers, put on my pajamas, and then slipped on my slippers to push open the bathroom door.
Upon opening it, a wave of hot steam hits you.
Amidst the swirling smoke, a silver-haired boy could be vaguely seen huddled in the bathtub, but his expression was difficult to discern due to the distance.
"Cangcang?" Qiao Mei yawned. "What are you doing?"
Why take a bath at a time like this?
Upon hearing her voice, Ao Cang shifted slightly, his voice unusually hoarse: "An'an, you go ahead and do your own thing, I'm taking a bath."
This time the dosage was very large, and after drinking it, his body's recovery was twice as strong as before.
Therefore, he can't simply get through his heat cycle like that.
But he didn't plan to tell Qiao Mei any of this. When he woke up in the morning and saw her listless appearance, he was filled with guilt and self-blame.
Qiao Mei didn't notice anything unusual about him. After nodding, she asked him again if Xu Hui had come to see her.
“I called you this morning to ask if you wanted to eat breakfast, but I declined on your behalf, saying that you were studying mecha very late tonight and probably wouldn’t eat lunch, so your aunt didn’t ask again.”
Qiao Mei: "......."
She used to live with Hsu Hui and there were times when she would stay up very late researching mecha, but it was never as extreme as it is now.
Xu Hui probably already knows what she and Ao Cang did.
She sighed, suppressing the heat in her earlobes, and her original plan to see Xu Hui vanished instantly.
Instead, he opened the video on his personal computer and checked on her condition.
She was found relaxing on a deck chair in the yard, basking in the sunset, and seemed to be doing well. So she went back to the bathroom to wash up.
She still had quite a few marks left by Ao Cang yesterday, which were particularly noticeable on her fair skin since they hadn't been removed.
Ao Cang was still in heat, and even though he was lying in the cold bathwater, his body temperature quickly warmed the water up, and he couldn't hide his restlessness and desire.
Now, seeing Qiao Mei suddenly come in, she brazenly revealed quite a few marks on her skin.
His throat went dry again, and he tried desperately to look away from her, but he couldn't.
Finally, he simply transformed into the form of a little black dragon, so that he could no longer do anything to Qiao Mei.
Qiao Mei noticed out of the corner of her eye that a huge person in the bathtub had vanished, and she paused for a moment before looking closer.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Ao Cang had reverted to his little black dragon form, which he had rarely used recently.
"Cang Cang?" She vaguely sensed that something was wrong with him. After spitting out the foam and rinsing her mouth, she stepped closer to him. Just as she was about to reach the bathtub and saw the thin pink appearance of Ao Cang's dragon scales, the light brain bracelet on her right hand started to vibrate.
She stopped and checked her bracelet; it was a multi-person voice message from the "Three Sworn Brothers" group chat.
Normally, if there's anything important, a multi-person voice chat will pop up. So Qiao Mei frowned, changed direction, and walked out of the bathroom after answering the call.
Ao Cang, who was almost out of control, let out a heavy sigh and changed the bathtub water for himself.
"What's going on? Is something important?"
No sooner had Qiao Mei finished asking than Shang Duojin's wailing and crying came over.
"Sister Qiao, you bad women, you have to help me! My parents suddenly went crazy and told me that my childhood sweetheart is coming to visit for a few days, and I have to treat him well. But the problem is, I've never heard them mention this before! It's suffocating!"
"Your childhood sweetheart...?" Shu Qingqing was a little speechless. "What era are we living in? Your family still follows that old-fashioned way of doing things. But it's a bit strange. Why didn't they tell you anything about your childhood sweetheart before?"
Qiao Mei also found it strange. She sat by the window, tidying her hair, and asked Shang Duojin how she and Shu Qingqing could help him.
"I don't know either. It's still summer vacation, isn't it? If you don't have anything important to do, could you come to my house? I heard that my childhood sweetheart is coming to my house tomorrow at noon. Could you come and help me fend him off? I'm really not good at dealing with girls! Of course, you're an exception."
The Shang family's home isn't far from Li Chonghua's, so it wouldn't be a big problem for Qiao Mei to go there. It's just that Shu Qingqing's home is on Lanhua Star, which is a bit more complicated.
She needs to leave tonight in order to get there before noon tomorrow.
She originally thought Shu Qingqing might decline, since the time was indeed too tight and the event was too sudden.
Unexpectedly, she said helplessly, "Alright then, I'll postpone my live streams tonight and tomorrow and go help you first."
Shang Duojin was practically in tears: "Waaah, you bad woman, do you have to be so touching?"
Shu Qingqing seemed disgusted by him and said disdainfully, "Be normal, or I'll take back what I just said right now."
There was no problem with Shu Qingqing, and of course, there was no problem with Qiao Mei, who lived nearby. After confirming that she would leave early the next morning, she told Xu Hui about it.
Since the shop is not far from Li's residence, if Xu Hui has any problems, she can simply rush back in the evening; it's not a big deal.
After making the decision, Qiao Mei told Xu Wenfeng that she would not go to him to learn about mecha manufacturing and disassembly for the next few days.
After all that work, it was completely dark.
She had barely eaten all day and was extremely hungry.
After preparing dinner for Xu Hui and serving her and Ao Cang's portions, she called out to Ao Cang, who had been staying in the bathroom, "Cang Cang, come out and have dinner."
If she hadn't known he was a black dragon, she would have thought he was some kind of mermaid who couldn't leave the water.
It's been soaking for so long, the skin must be all wrinkled by now.
Ao Cang finally came out, but he didn't look well. Jin Mou didn't dare to look at her, and he even wore a large bathrobe instead of the pajamas she bought for him.
Seeing this, she didn't think much of it, pushed his portion in front of him, and started eating.
Ao Cang secretly watched her lips open and close, his inner turmoil growing stronger.
