After the exam, Shang Yunmiao, who had met Chen Bing at the agreed location, jogged towards her.
She ran with a cute smile on her face, waving her little hand. Her long hair and scarf fluttered in the wind, and the schoolbag slung over her shoulder bounced up and down with her little steps as she ran.
The weather was gloomy, and the snow that had been falling for two hours had whitened the roads and reddened the girl's cheeks.
"Chen Bing! Exam's over!"
After bumping solidly into Chen Bing's arms, Shang Yunmiao, with a big smile on her face, reached out to put her arm around Chen Bing's neck.
Just then, Chen Bing, who had just figured things out in the exam hall, was talking about Xiao Shang. So, regardless of whether the occasion was appropriate, he bent down to peck at her.
"No >﹏<, let's wait until we get home." Shang Yunmiao, who had just been the one to hug him, immediately became timid because of Chen Bing's enthusiastic response.
After being interrupted during the spellcasting, Chen Bing realized that the location was inappropriate. So, after a light laugh, she led Shang Yunmiao to the parking area.
However, it was impossible to wait until they got home to discuss it. As soon as Shang Yunmiao got into the car, before the door was even closed properly, Chen Bing leaned over to continue casting the spell.
Although she still had a fever, and logically shouldn't be too close to Xiao Shang, she couldn't let Master Chen hold back any longer after finally getting through the exams. Besides, Xiao Shang was in contact with her all the time, so it was only a matter of time before she caught a fever too. Therefore, Chen Bing didn't care about anything else; she just wanted to eat.
This went on for quite a while, so long that Shang Yunmiao lost track of how much time had passed, until Chen Bing finally finished eating and sat up straight.
"Tsk tsk." Chen Bing smacked her lips twice, and judging from her expression, she seemed to still be immersed in the pleasure she had just experienced.
After blushing and covering her mouth in a daze for a while, the woman who had been eaten regained her composure and turned to Chen Bing, asking, "Chen Bing, does your head still hurt? Do you still have a fever?"
As he spoke, Xiao Shang reached out to check the temperature of Chen Bing's forehead.
Seeing this, Chen Bing, who originally wanted to reassure Shang Yunmiao that he was alright, suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation. So, he immediately pretended to be in great pain and said, "It's more than just painful, I feel like I'm about to die."
"Oh? It's that serious? Then...should we go to the hospital?"
"Going to the hospital won't do," Chen Bing thought to herself, then waved her hand and replied, "It's not that bad yet. Let me go home and rest for a bit."
After staring at Chen Bing for a while with some unease, Shang Yunmiao placed her hands on her lap and then replied anxiously, "Then, let's hurry home. I'll drive."
Without refusing, Chen Bing switched seats with Xiao Shang and quietly admired the little girl's focused driving.
Soon, the car slowly drove into its own parking space, and with Shang Yunmiao's help, the "weak" Chen Bing staggered back home.
As soon as he entered the house, before Chen Bing could say anything, Shang Yunmiao anxiously invited him to sit on the shoe cabinet, then helped him take off his coat and change his shoes, making Chen Bing feel a little embarrassed to continue deceiving her.
However, Chen Bing soon had the nerve to deceive people again, driven by practical interests.
The incident began like this: after taking off her coat and changing her shoes, Shang Yunmiao urged Chen Bing to go back to the bedroom and lie down.
Since she was sick and needed to lie down, she would definitely need to change into pajamas. When Xiao Shang took the pajamas out of the closet and handed them to her, Chen Bing thought that this was not quite what she had imagined.
I pretended to be sick so that I could get closer to Xiao Shang, but now it seems like I have no choice but to stay in bed.
As Chen Bing was struggling with whether or not to tell Shang Yunmiao that he wasn't actually that weak, Shang Yunmiao, who interpreted something else from his hesitant gaze, suddenly blushed and leaned forward, asking rather shyly, "Do...do you want me to help you change your clothes?"
Putting aside those chaotic thoughts, Chen Bing answered in a very firm tone, "I want it!"
So, with Xiao Shang blushing and not knowing what to do with her little hands, Chen Bing changed into her pajamas and lay down in bed with a peaceful and satisfied expression.
"By the way, it's so cold in bed, Xiao Shang, could you come in and warm me up?"
As the saying goes, the patient is God, but unfortunately, Shang Yunmiao is not a Christian. As a true Chinese, she is more pragmatic in her approach to things.
Refusing Chen Bing's unreasonable and shameless request, Shang Yunmiao sat on the edge of the bed and coaxed the young man for a while before turning and leaving the room.
According to her, she was going to the supermarket near her apartment complex to buy ingredients for dinner.
After hearing the door in the entryway slam shut, Chen Bing took the damp towel that Shang Yunmiao had placed on her forehead, then sat up and stared blankly for a while.
In winter, it gets dark very early. By this time, it was already completely dark outside the window.
By the way, it's probably still snowing outside. What if Xiao Shang slips and falls and gets hurt while shopping alone?
Thinking of this, Chen Bing took out her phone and made a video call to Shang Yunmiao.
The call was answered by Shang Yunmiao shortly after it was made.
When Xiao Shang saw that Chen Bing wasn't lying in bed resting properly, she unusually scolded him like an adult, "Why aren't you lying in bed resting properly?"
Without responding immediately, Chen Bing glanced at the background in the video and deduced that Shang Yunmiao had just gotten off the elevator and hadn't left the building yet.
"I started missing you as soon as you left. Let's keep the video call on, as if I went with you."
Perhaps due to a fever, Mr. Chen's tone was noticeably different from usual when he spoke. It was soft and weak, almost like he was pleading.
Of course, the frail Chen Bing himself was completely unaware of this; otherwise, someone who always prided himself on his dignity would have surely hanged himself with a noodle. After all, he was a respectable gentleman, and the thought of him actually doing something as unseemly as acting coquettishly was incredibly embarrassing.
On the other side of the screen, Shang Yunmiao immediately softened and was moved after hearing Chen Bing's "coquettish" words.
This is a completely different Chen Bing from usual!
After a moment of surprise, Xiao Shang replied in a soft tone, "Okay then... then you should lie down properly."
"Mmm, I'll lie here obediently."
After saying that, Chen Bing lay back on the bed and turned to look at Shang Yunmiao on the other end of the video call.
He watched the little girl carry an umbrella to the supermarket next to the community, watched her carefully select some ingredients, watched her pay by herself, and watched her carry the things back to the community by herself.
Seeing that nothing unexpected happened on the road, Chen Bing felt somewhat relieved.
Once his mind settled down, he inevitably started having all sorts of wicked thoughts. His clever brain wasn't clouded by the fever, and soon, under the guidance of this clever brain, he spoke to Shang Yunmiao on the other end of the camera: "Can I sleep in your room? I feel like my bed is a little uncomfortable."
Unlike the previous request for sleeping with someone, this request wasn't so absurd. So, while waiting for the elevator, Shang Yunmiao casually replied, "Sure, do you want me to help you?"
Without responding to the following question, Chen Bing immediately got up and headed towards Shang Yunmiao's room after Xiao Shang agreed. On the way, he made another request.
"Can I sleep with the clothes in your room?"
