Chapter 70 She Looks Like a Little Girl

Early in the morning, Xu Mingyuan was awakened by the sound of cannon fire.

My head feels dizzy, which is the aftereffect of not sleeping well.

I glanced at the clock and it was just past six o'clock. I slept for five hours more.

My body felt very heavy and I didn't know when I was covered with my thick quilt.

The quilt on Xiao Yangzhi was not thick, and she was wrapped like a cocoon, with her head resting on his chest.

With such limited strength, he said he would keep watch, but in the end he still fell asleep.

I picked up the cell phone next to me and found several missed calls and more than a dozen blessing text messages.

Xu Mingyuan picked one at random, removed his name, and sent it back to the group.

Seeing that the landline number that Tao Shuxin called yesterday rang again in the middle of the night, I thought about it and called back.

"Hey, who are you looking for?"

After the call was connected, a teenage child's voice was heard, so tender that it was hard to tell whether it was a boy or a girl.

"Go wake up Tao Shuxin and tell her it's time to get up and pee."

The child was very sensible and didn't need Xu Mingyuan to coax him. He just did as he was told.

Not long after, the receiver was picked up, and Tao Shuxin was heard scolding in a low voice: "You're making a harassing call so early in the morning. Do you want to let me sleep?"

"It's fine if you don't thank me for wishing you a happy new year, but you're still complaining here. I'm telling you, there won't be a next time."

"You're not sincere at all. If you really care about it, you should have called me after twelve o'clock."

"Why are there so many problems? It's good enough that I called you. Let me tell you, the first call was made by you."

"Tsk, you have a little conscience."

There was a hint of pride in Tao Shuxin's tone, and Xu Mingyuan could even imagine her pursing her lips and curling them up to the sky.

The two chatted for a few words, and when Tao Shuxin heard someone calling her on the other end of the phone, she hurriedly hung up.

Soon after, Sun Hongwei called. After greeting each other, he planned to ask Xu Mingyuan to come out and surf the Internet.

If Xu Mingyuan was not mentally ill, he would definitely not go there. He just said a few words and left.

When I saw the text messages sent by Xu Mingyuan, almost everyone who saw them called him and chatted with him for a few words. By the time I hung up the phone, more than half an hour had passed.

Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi was still curled up in the quilt, Xu Mingyuan was a little puzzled. The sound of firecrackers outside had been going on for a long time, and she was sleeping so soundly.

Suddenly he found that her arm had also shrunk into the quilt at some point, so Xu Mingyuan grabbed her cold little hand and gently pulled it out a little.

"According to scientific research, if a person raises their arms while sleeping, they won't fall down."

Xu Mingyuan raised her hand and saw that, just as he had expected, Xiao Yangzhi's arm was suspended in mid-air without moving.

This kind of trick to fool children can actually work on Xiao Yangzhi. It seems that she really has no childhood to speak of.

Yang Zhi didn't know how she fell asleep. She just remembered that she was very sleepy and her eyelids kept fighting each other. Then she had no memory of anything else.

And she had woken up a long time ago, even earlier than Xu Mingyuan.

She just didn't dare to move. She kept hesitating whether to get up. If she got up, would she wake her brother up? If she woke him up, would she be scolded?
I don’t think so. My brother is a very nice person.

Then Yang Zhi no longer had the chance to hesitate, because Xu Mingyuan had already woken up.

At this time, Yang Zhi had no choice but to pretend to be dead. She even realized that one of her arms that was pressed down had become numb and had no feeling, so she didn't dare to move.

Yang Zhi's heart was pounding with panic, and suddenly he found his hand being grabbed by something warm, and then he lifted it up.

Yang Zhi, who was still pretending to be asleep, heard his brother laugh, then climbed up from the sofa.

Yang Zhi, whose head was in a mess, didn't know what her brother was laughing at, but she felt her arms a little tired, and then her whole body froze.

Although she didn't have much common sense, she didn't think she would do such outrageous actions while asleep.

But things have come to this point, even if there is only a small probability, Yang Zhi dare not give up.

Seeing that the back of her hand was covered with a layer of pink, Xu Mingyuan did not intend to wake up the little girl who was pretending to sleep. He just wrapped her in a thick quilt and went back to the room to get her a pillow. Hearing the footsteps going away, Yang Zhi narrowed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her brother return to the room.

The pillow had just been dried in the sun before the New Year, and it felt warm as Yang Zhi pressed her cheek against it. She slowly found a comfortable position and fell asleep with a head full of shame.

When she woke up again, it was already noon.

Xu Mingyuan opened the door and returned home with the food.

There were not many restaurants still open on the first day of the new year. Xu Mingyuan strolled around the area and ordered a few dishes.

Little Yangzhi rubbed her eyes and when she saw Xu Mingyuan coming back, she jumped up from the sofa, trotted over to take the bag from his hand, and started packing it up quickly.

While eating, Yang Zhi did not dare to look up at Xu Mingyuan, but she felt that her behavior was too awkward, so she had to try hard to pretend to be normal.

"Why are you staring at the eggplant in front of you? Is it really that delicious? Eat more meat."

Xu Mingyuan picked up a piece of beef brisket with chopsticks and put it in her bowl. He also picked up a piece of minced meat and eggplant to taste it. The taste was just so-so.

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi just raised his head, then lowered it again.

Yang Zhi felt a little bored while chewing the dish made by the restaurant chef. In fact, she felt that yesterday's dish was quite delicious, so she decided to heat it up.

This way I can wait for my brother to finish eating first, and I won’t be embarrassed.

Xu Mingyuan had no idea about the twists and turns in Xiao Yangzhi's mind. He just saw that she was just pretending to sleep. Was it that serious?
As for falling asleep leaning against each other, Xu Mingyuan didn't even think about it.

They are wrapped up tightly and still wearing clothes. If this is considered crossing the line, then don't fall asleep when you meet the opposite sex on the bus.

What Xu Mingyuan didn't expect was that not everyone could have a clear conscience like him.

Such free time is rare, and Xu Mingyuan has not gone out these days. He even has meals delivered to his door by the restaurant, and he stays at home with Xiao Yangzhi.

Yang Zhi was naturally happy about this. She didn't like going out, and it was so cold outside, it was far better to hibernate at home.

Xu Mingyuan spent most of his time watching TV. Occasionally, when he had a good idea, he would go to the study to write it down and make a plan.

When Xu Mingyuan was busy with other things, Yang Zhi would be bored.

Xu Mingyuan didn't let her do her homework during the New Year holiday, and she didn't know what to do.

Remembering Xu Mingyuan's advice, Yang Zhi tried to exercise and do some push-ups.

But she had little strength and no athletic ability. After exercising for a long time, she could not do more than ten reps. She felt so limp that it took her a while to recover before she could get up from the bed.

Finally, she had to turn on the TV and calmed herself down with a rosy face.

There were many aerobics programs at that time. Yang Zhi found a simple dance and followed the teacher's movements.

I do not know how long it has been.

When Xu Mingyuan walked out of the study, he saw Xiao Yangzhi holding the remote control in his hand, gesturing towards the TV clumsily, sometimes quickly and sometimes slowly, as if he was doing military boxing.

I couldn't help laughing out loud.

Hearing Xu Mingyuan's laughter, Yang Zhi, who was immersed in it, stood there in a daze. Her little face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. She pressed the remote control in a panic, and finally had to turn off the TV.

After standing there for a while as if he was being punished, Yang Zhi lowered his head and ran away.

"Stop, why are you running?" Xu Mingyuan grabbed her while laughing and turned on the TV again. "Aren't you good at dancing? Come, teach me how to dance so I can learn from you."

Yang Zhi, who was still feeling embarrassed, saw that Xu Mingyuan not only turned on the TV, but also followed the dance teacher to twist his waist and kick his legs with extremely exaggerated movements.

Seeing Xiao Yangzhi biting her lips, looking like she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, her face turning red from holding it in, Xu Mingyuan pulled her to his side.

"Why don't you jump along a bit?"

"Oh."

Yang Zhi squeaked, and seeing that her brother didn't care, she suppressed her shame and gradually followed the rhythm.

When the day passed, little Yangzhi relaxed her restraint at home. Even Xu Mingyuan would occasionally listen to her humming a few lyrics happily. She finally behaved like a little girl.
