Almost simultaneously, the door was kicked open with a bang, and Lin Zhengying and Commander Long rushed in. The two held their weapons and looked around warily. They only breathed a slight sigh of relief when they did not notice anything unusual.
Seeing Cheng Shuang nestled in bed, staring at them in disbelief, Lin Zhengying immediately turned his head away uncomfortably. However, behind them, Aunt Zhe, dressed in pajamas, yawned and shooed the two men out.
Commander Long was reluctant to leave. He hadn't fully confirmed whether his sister was truly safe and sound, but Aunt Zhe was not only fierce but also had a foul mouth. She pushed him out in no time.
Before closing the door, Commander Long waved his arms frantically to prove his presence, "Little sister, don't be afraid. If anything happens, please ask Auntie Zhe to protect you. Don't be reckless. Come out and find your brother to avenge you!"
The woman leaning against the door rolled her eyes. This begging attitude? Ha! Not only is he stupid, but his emotional intelligence is also a drag. No wonder his wife still can't forget her senior brother—what a useless man!
"Good morning, Auntie Zhe!" Cheng Shuang smiled obediently at the cheerful, round-faced woman in front of her, without deliberately asking why they had barged into her room uninvited.
They are all highly skilled individuals; lying and concealing anything is pointless.
"Good morning, good morning!" Aunt Zhe was very easygoing. She walked to the bedside and sat down in a few steps. Then she pulled the blanket over and smelled it. She asked bluntly, as if chatting casually, "The resentment is so strong. Has the demonic infant been here?"
Cheng Shuang nodded. "We chatted for a long time!"
These four straightforward words startled Aunt Zhe for a moment. She came to her senses, laughed heartily, and patted the little girl on the shoulder, "A promising young man!"
After praising you, he immediately began to criticize you: "You're still young and don't know how dangerous the demonic infant is. Next time it comes looking for you, you must notify us as soon as possible."
“Okay!” As a quiet and well-behaved child in the eyes of her teachers and classmates, the little girl easily won the favor of her elders. “I will make sure to inform you and Master Zhengying in time without disturbing it.”
Aunt Zhe loves it when people talk about her and her senior brother together. She grins and laughs heartily, very cheerfully.
"This young lady has a bright future!"
Cheng Shuang cleverly grabbed Zhe Gu's hand that was about to pat her back. The previous pats on her shoulder had already hurt a lot, and if she continued, she was afraid that the teddy bear that was playing with toys against the headboard would start to move.
Aunt Zhe smiled so broadly that her eyes disappeared, completely unaware that an inanimate object was staring at her intently.
Cheng Shuang subtly picked up the teddy bear, silently comforting it, and tilted her head with a smile, saying, "I haven't congratulated you and Master Zheng Ying yet! You two are both powerful and truly skilled masters, you're such a perfect match!" Yesterday, during the fight with the demonic infant, Aunt Zhe called Lin Zheng Ying "husband" more than once. If it were wishful thinking, Cheng Shuang thought that Lin Zheng Ying would definitely deny it given his personality, but he didn't, which undoubtedly shows that their relationship is more than just that of a simple senior and junior brother and sister.
The little girl's guess was correct, but she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking, Auntie Zhe immediately changed from laughing out loud to a happy smile with deep dimples. Her shy and smug look made the single couple shudder.
"This young lady not only has a promising future, but she also has a good eye!" Aunt Zhe covered her mouth, her eyes and brows radiating joy. "When the wedding banquet comes, Aunt Zhe will definitely invite you to dinner, okay!"
"Whether you eat or not, the gift must be delivered!" Cheng Shuang couldn't stay long, so she couldn't make a promise casually. But she didn't want to disappoint this lovely woman, so she secretly found a gift and stuffed it into Zhe Gu's hand.
Aunt Zhe was about to politely refuse when she looked down and saw a beautiful, palm-sized box. On the box sat a man and woman dressed in wedding attire. Opening the box revealed a strange song; the lyrics were only one line, yet they perfectly captured her deepest secret—
I'm marrying you tomorrow!
I'm marrying you tomorrow!
Cheng Shuang smiled and waved, sending Zhe Gu, who was holding the music box and looking completely absorbed, out.
Lin Zhengying and Long Dashuai, who were guarding the door, watched helplessly as Zhe Gu smiled deeply and passed by them as if in a daze.
If it weren't for her normal breathing, Lin Zhengying would have almost thought that Aunt Zhe was possessed. He raised his eyebrows with a complicated expression. It was the first time that Aunt Zhe had ignored him, and he felt a little strange.
Commander Long didn't care about their little entanglement between a man and a woman. He winked at Lin Zhengying, wanting him to go in and ask why the Demon Infant wouldn't leave and why he insisted on talking to his little sister all night.
Lin Zhengying glanced at him. Not daring to offend his sister, he assigned the task to someone else. If it weren't for the urgency of the matter, he wouldn't have bothered to get involved.
Before Lam Ching-ying could knock, the door opened.
Cheng Shuang sweetly called out to them, without mentioning the demonic infant, and only asked Lin Zhengying if his apprentice could take her to a nearby town to buy some things.
For example, talismans or similar items.
Commander Long slapped his forehead; he had completely forgotten that his sister was supposed to go shopping for groceries today. "I'll go get Nianying..."
"Big brother, don't call Nianying 'sister.' My sister-in-law just gave birth, so it's better for her to stay by her side and take care of her. Don't let her be distracted by such a small matter." Cheng Shuang refused directly. He had already had a bit of a disagreement with Nianying yesterday because of Mi Qilian. He was just helping to show her the way. It's not like he couldn't buy things without someone with him. Why bother her again?
The little girl understood perfectly. If her older sister had a baby, she would stay by her sister and nephew's side 24/7 without moving an inch, let alone go shopping.
Treating others as you would like to be treated; that's the main reason why Cheng Shuang didn't argue with Nian Ying yesterday.
Commander Long wasn't that thoughtful enough to consider his sister-in-law's thoughts. He felt his sister made sense, partly due to her sister-complex and partly due to her wife-complex. If he had to choose without thinking, whether it was his wife or his sister, he would just nod in agreement.
