Wei Lai was very curious before. His father had been promoted when he was in junior high school, and he heard that his salary was quite good.
But they still lived in an old two-story house. Others moved into big houses as soon as they had money, but he never had such an idea.
After experiencing the spring cleaning himself, he began to understand his father's ideas.
If the whole family cleans their home together, it is a basic ritual before the New Year.
Then there is really no need to live in a big house. It is not too small to live in, so why bother yourself?
On the night after the spring cleaning, Wei Lai couldn't help but thank his father for his wise choice. Anyway, he just lay in bed and didn't want to move at all.
Besides, most people take two days to do spring cleaning. Tomorrow he can still use the spring cleaning as an excuse to think carefully about how to confess his feelings to Xiaoting.
Then, early the next morning.
"Wei Lai, get up. Xiao Ting is here to see you."
Wei Lai: !!
Wei Lai suddenly sat up from the bed and was about to answer, but he immediately reacted.
That’s not right. Today is the day for him to express his feelings however he wants. He can’t go with Xiaoting.
I have to play dead, just pretend he was tired from cleaning yesterday.
After today, when I have figured out how to confess my feelings, I will go find Xiaoting and tell her that he got up late and had other things to do.
That’s right, that’s what I said.
After making the decision, Wei Lai lay down again and wrapped himself tightly.
Time passed little by little, and two footsteps were heard at the stairs.
Wei Lai clearly felt two people walking up to his bed.
"Maybe he's tired from cleaning yesterday. Why don't you go back first, Xiaoting? I'll talk to him when he gets up." Xu Xiang's voice sounded beside the bed.
[Yes, Mom, you did a great job. Let Xiaoting go quickly.]
Wei Lai cheered in his heart, but there was no movement beside the bed.
After a while, the sound of someone leaving was heard.
At the same time, he felt someone sitting on his bed.
[Is it Mom? No!]
At first, Wei Lai thought that his mother wanted to say something to him, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not right, so he closed his eyes and used his ability.
The curtains that had been dried yesterday were hung by the window. Outside the window was the rising sun of a new day. A young girl was sitting leisurely on the corner of his bed, a smile on her lips, looking at him quietly.
[I knew it would be like this. My mom is so disloyal.]
Anticipating that it was Qingting sitting beside his bed, Wei Lai simply tightened the quilt and prepared to take a nap.
Time passed little by little. Wei Lai, who thought Qingting would eventually lose her patience and leave, just felt a little sleepy when he suddenly felt someone pulling open his quilt.
What does she want to do?
Feeling the chill on his back, Wei Lai couldn't help but feel uneasy.
[You're testing me by lifting the quilt in the middle of winter?]
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Wei Lai felt a sudden warmth on his back. After feeling an indescribable touch on his back, a pair of hands hugged his waist again.
His cheeks felt like an electric blanket, and Wei Lai suddenly felt like he couldn't bear it.
Opening his eyes, he hesitated for a moment before turning over and looking at the girl lying on his bed.
"How do you know I'm awake?"
"Because your eyes are moving." Qingting smiled and pointed at Wei Lai's eyes, then rubbed his pillow. "Your bed is so comfortable. If you don't want to get up, let's sleep for a while."
"Um, then you sleep well. I have to get up and do some cleaning."
"Don't lie to me, Auntie told me that you had already finished the spring cleaning yesterday."
After getting up from the bed, Wei Lai wanted to find an opportunity to escape, but the girl sitting on his bed immediately exposed his lie.
"Didn't I tell you I would confess my feelings to you before school starts? Why are you in such a hurry to come here?"
"I'm not here to urge you to confess your feelings. I'm here to ask for your help in moving furniture. There are some furniture at home that my dad can't move by himself, and I can't clean it."
Qingting got up from the bed and started putting on her coat.
Wei Lai's eyelids couldn't help but twitch twice.
He couldn't see it under the quilt just now, but now he realized that Xiaoting had taken off her coat and was lying on the bed with him.
It seemed like she treated this place as her own home and really planned to sleep with him for a while.
Well, as far as Ms. Xu Xiang's attitude is concerned, she would indeed not object to Xiaoting doing this.
"Okay, I'll go with you, but I really have something else to do today."
Wei Lai tried to struggle. He really needed some time alone today.
"Got it. Go wash your face and brush your teeth. I'll wait for you downstairs."
After putting on her clothes, Qingting stuffed Wei Lai's clothes into his arms and pushed him into the bathroom in the room.
More than ten minutes later, Wei Lai and Qing Ting were walking on the street between the two houses, each holding a pancake that Xu Xiang had forced upon them.
“It feels a bit like when I was in elementary school.”
"Yeah, in the past, Auntie would give me a pancake she made herself, regardless of whether I had eaten or not."
Holding the pancake in her hand, savoring the taste that hadn't changed at all, Qingting couldn't help but squint her eyes happily.
"I suspect that except for the first time you came to call me to school, the rest were all for this pancake."
"Yes, why not?" Qingting took another bite of the pancake and pouted coquettishly.
"I didn't say no. Anyway, you've treated me to your cooking several times, so just consider it as repayment."
[But these two pancakes were originally mine, right? I'm not sure if this one will hold up when I move things later.]
Wei Lai looked at the pancake in his hand and just as he was starting to wonder, a pancake with two bites taken from it appeared in front of him.
"Hey, we'll move the furniture later, so eat something."
"No, I'm enough."
"You dare to disdain even your girlfriend-to-be... But it's okay."
Wei Lai just pushed Qingting's hand away and saw her puffing up her face. Before he could explain, he saw the girl suddenly come over and take a bite of the pancake he had not finished.
"I've already bitten both of them. Don't eat them if you have the guts."
"As for that, you've had breakfast, right? Then I won't be polite."
Wei Lai really had no way to comment on Qingting's behavior, and finally took the pancake from her hand.
When we arrived at Qingting's house, there were already a lot of things hanging out to dry on the balcony, but An Baoer was nowhere to be seen.
"By the way, you asked me to help your dad move things, where's your mom?"
If he remembered correctly, Xiaoting inherited her strength from her mother. Although An Baoer was a woman, she was actually no weaker than Qing Qishu.
"My mom drove to the city to buy something. She won't be back until the afternoon."
"In other words?"
"Well, it's just me and my dad at home, but he said girls shouldn't be allowed to carry heavy things."
Walk through the door.
Wei Lai followed Qingting to change into slippers. As soon as he stepped into the living room, he saw Qingqing Qi Shu sitting on the sofa with his arms folded, staring at him.
His expression was like that of an old general looking at the enemy in front of a battle line.
Wait, aren't they asking him to move furniture?
Wei Lai suddenly had the illusion of fighting a boss.
