Chapter 123: Don’t kid a girl to be flat

Cheng Li was afraid of getting her skirt wet, and grabbed the ends of the skirt and tied a knot on her thighs, her calves red from the hot water.

Cheng Ming crossed her arms and asked in a rude manner, “It’s only been a short while, why are you washing on it?”

“It would be a waste to leave such a good bathtub unused, right?” Cheng Li pouted and said.

“Then feel free to soak it up, I’ll go out on the balcony and blow off some steam.”

Cheng Ming was about to bring the door and leave the bathroom.

Cheng Li flung the shower in his hand with a splash, hunched over like an old man, and said wearily:

“Brother hurry up and water me, I’m tired, and at this snail’s pace of watering, I don’t know when I’ll be able to take a bath.”

Because it is a temporary addition to the bathtub, there is no automatic water filling and other features, all have to be operated manually.

“Are you an unsprouted seed? And you need to be watered.”

Saying this on his lips, Cheng Ming still honestly took the shower in the hands of Process Lai, and went home earlier after getting done earlier.

The depth of the water in the bathtub gradually disappeared to Process Lai’s knees.

Cheng Ming fiddled with the hot water in the bathtub, which rippled and pounded Cheng Li’s thighs.

“Hahaha, that tickles.”

Cheng Li let out a silver bell-like laugh, her little legs kicking at the water.

“Leigh, is this much hot water enough?”

“Not enough, not enough, again and again.”

The skirt wasn’t fastened, and the movement was so great that it came right loose and fell into the water.

Cheng Li hurriedly grabbed the skirt and lifted it up, the corner of the skirt was still wet a small piece.

“Brother, my skirt is getting all you wet.”

“You’re the one who said there wasn’t enough hot water, right? And blaming me.”

Cheng Ming backhanded it and turned off the faucet to put the water, hanging the shower back on the wall and adding more water could really submerge her in water completely.

“Don’t soak for too long, add some hot water if the water freezes, I’ll give you eight minutes at most.” Cheng Ming admonished.

Cheng Ming closed the bathroom door and left in style.

Cheng Li removed her wet dress and lay down her body holding onto the wall of the bathtub, the hot water slightly not over her shoulders, her hands pulled up the long hair at the back of her head and bundled it on the top of her head, tying it up in a doughnut head.

Cheng Li held his head in his hands and looked up at the ceiling bath, revealing a distressed expression, no reaction at all ah, the test failed.

But no reaction might be the best reaction, and if my brother turned his head and ran away, there wouldn’t be any follow-up to be had.

Cheng Li submerged his face into the water and ‘pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff’ blew bubbles.

It’s still not cool, not being treated like a girl.

Waiting another year and a half, she was going to let her brother know about her charms, the giant leap from no boobs to boobs, and that there was no fooling a young girl who was flat!

Cheng Li’s petite body gently slid into the hot water, leaving only the tip of her nose exposed to the surface, and her hair, which had not been tied up tightly, cascaded out in the water.

Cheng Ming held the handle on the balcony and looked out over the distant landscape, falling into a long period of contemplation.

Living in a new home means a new beginning, right?

He’s going to have to work a little harder than that.

Cheng Ming glanced at the time on his watch from time to time, six minutes, three minutes ……

I can’t believe it’s so hard to be on time and on point to go get my sister before she washes her hair, kids have poor immunity and my sister is one of those frail types.

Knock, knock–

Cheng Ming knocked on the door and shouted, “Xiao Li, are you ready? We should go home.”

“Brother, help.”

“What’s wrong?”

I don’t think it’s soaking, is it? Or drowned?

Cheng Ming pushed the door in panic, only to see a fully dressed Cheng Li standing on the floor, his body radiating heat, shaking his wet hair like a cat after a bath, his hair flying and water stains hitting Cheng Ming’s face.

Cheng Ming wiped his face and asked in a puzzled manner, “Didn’t you put your hair up all the way? Why did you still get your hair wet?”

“Soak it up and forget it, ehehehe!”

Cheng Li tilted his head, knocking his head and adorably spitting out his little tongue.

“Brother, is there a towel here?” Cheng Li probed and asked.

“Of course not.”

Cheng Li asked with a look of anticipation, “Where’s the hairdryer? There must be hairdryers in the boxes of so many electrical appliances.”

“Neither.”

Even an oven, just not a small item like a hairdryer. It’s really easy for men to forget what women use when they acquire appliances.

“It’s summer anyway, it doesn’t matter if your hair is a little wet, you can dry it when you get home, maybe it’ll dry in the wind on the way.” Cheng Ming said with a thumbs up.

“I can’t, it’s hard to get my hair wet, brother, lend me your clothes.”

“You don’t want to ……”

Cheng Li grabbed the hem of Cheng Ming’s shirt and wiped his face first, the effect was not bad.

Cheng Li burrowed his head into Process Ming’s shirt, rubbing his hair from side to side.

“Phew, thanks brother, saved.”

Cheng Li burrowed out, breathing in the fresh air outside, her fingers fiddling with her long hair. It was half-dry and not wet, but it had reached just the right level to be acceptable.

Cheng Ming looked down at his blouse, it was spoiled beyond recognition, with wet marks crisscrossing it, and it was full of water stains.

Cheng Ming lifted the rubber stopper and the tub drained the bathtub.

Cheng Li said heartily, “It’s such a waste to drain it just like that, it’s obviously not dirty at all.”

Cheng Ming flicked Cheng Li’s forehead and said, “Who do you think is wasting water.”

After checking the utilities, Cheng Ming still turned off the main power switch for safety reasons, then locked the door and left with his sister.

At dinner, my sister was whispering in my mom’s ear about how big and nice the new house was and how comfortable the bathtub was.

Cheng Ming also seized the time to hand over the newly dispensed key.

“What’s the big deal about a bathtub, we’re installing one at our house, just in time to modify the plumbing over the weekend, our bathroom isn’t that small, just add a bathtub when you install the water heater.” Lai Ying said dismissively, not even looking at the new house key.

Is this a fight with Dad?

“Yeah, favorite mommy.”

Cheng Li hugged his old mom and rubbed her cheek affectionately.

With tubs in both homes, it looks like the sister is the big winner.

Meanwhile at the dining table of Jing Jing’s house, Lin Xuejun and Ren Mei were discussing the matter of Cheng Ming’s house.

“Hongyuan and Li-Ying are really divorced? It’s not a joke?” Lin Xuejun, who was busy with his official duties, asked incredulously.

“Yesterday, we went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the divorce license, Xiaoming followed Hongyuan, and Xiaoli followed Li Ying.”

Upon hearing this news, Lin Jingyi, who had been listening silently, couldn’t help but interject and ask, “Mom, Xiaoming and Xiaoli are separated?”

This was the first time she had heard of this, although she knew that Uncle Cheng and Auntie Lai were preparing for a divorce, she didn’t think that the two siblings would be living separately, and she didn’t dare to imagine that scene at all.

“Divorce when the kids are so old, I really can’t figure out what the couple is thinking.”

“It’s just that the kids are old enough to understand that even a divorce won’t affect them too much before they decide to get divorced.”

“You didn’t persuade them? We were the ones who set them up together back then, and if they want to get divorced, we as matchmakers won’t feel good about it either.”

“Why didn’t I persuade her, I’ve been drinking tea with her all afternoon. But Li Ying is determined this time, you also know the stubbornness of both of them, we can’t pull them back.” Ren Mei helplessly shook her head and said.

“This isn’t the first time they’ve gotten a divorce, is it? What stopped it last time?”

“Once Xiao Li cried, Xiao Li just full moon that time, Li Ying wanted to go to work, Hongyuan did not allow, the two people divorce, Xiao Ming how to cry is useless, Xiao Li crowed, they went together to comfort Xiao Li.”

Lin Xuejun proposed, “Then we’ll let Xiao Li cry again?”

“Go go go, what a bad idea! Maybe they just separated for a while and got back together after enough drama.”

“And split up, they’re a young couple in love.”

“I’m full.”

Lin Jingyi put down her chopsticks, filled with the shocking news that Xiao Ming and Xiao Li were going to separate.

They’re splitting up, so isn’t this my chance? Ah, how one acts like a bad woman.
