Even though the process of getting to know each other wasn't too good, Ye Xiao and Zhou Erke had finally become the most basic ordinary friends after a series of exchanges. This was evident from the completely different ways of addressing each other.
Watching Feng Timo bounce back to the bedroom, Ye Xiao shook her head helplessly. She laughed at herself and turned around to walk into the kitchen, preparing to start her daily work as a nanny.
Casually throwing the greasy dishes into the sink, perhaps recalling the unexpected romantic scene not long ago, Ye Xiao, who usually washed the dishes swiftly, seemed a little clumsy. Her relatively slow movements seemed to be silently hinting at something.
"Zhou…Erke…"
…………
While Ye Xiao was cleaning up the dishes by herself, Zhou Erke, who was well-deserved as the number one queen in the live streaming circle and was usually highly sought after, was also enduring the fancy teasing from her best friend.
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Feng Timo smacked his lips in a strange manner. After returning to his bedroom, he raised his hands slightly in front of his eyes, shook his head gently, and pretended to sigh in distress."Sigh! We're both women, but why are my hands so rough?”
The obvious hint of teasing immediately made Zhou Erke blush. She raised her head slightly to look at the fair and tender palm that was not inferior to her, and even slightly superior. The corners of Zhou Erke's mouth twitched slightly as she said in annoyance,""If you have something to say, say it! Aren't you tired of hiding it?"
"Oh?"
Seemingly provoked by Zhou Erke's disdain, Feng Timo sneakily moved closer to Zhou Erke and poked her best friend's shoulder with one hand. He then joked with a cheeky smile,""Erke, weren't you very ladylike just now? Why are you so rude when you're alone with me?”
After a slight pause, before Zhou Erke could respond, the mischievous Feng Timo added with a smile,""How is it? My brother isn't bad, right?"
The sudden change of topic made Zhou Erke's anger turn into shyness almost instantly. Perhaps at the beginning, Zhou Erke only had the mentality of trying to get in touch with Ye Xiao, but after a short period of getting to know Ye Xiao, the gentle posture that Ye Xiao inadvertently revealed just happened to hit the most obscure weakness in Zhou Erke's heart.
Just as Feng Timo had said before, if it wasn't for the fact that she had a slight favorable impression of Ye Xiao, how could Zhou Erke, who usually didn't bother to talk to anyone, subconsciously put on a ladylike posture in front of Ye Xiao?
Of course, this good impression was just a good impression. Seeing that Feng Timo had just teased her and then asked such an obvious question, Zhou Erke, who was embarrassed and angry, twitched her mouth and replied in embarrassment,""Not much! Your brother is as annoying as you!"
Even though Zhou Erke had tried her best to put on a disgusted expression, as her only bad friend, Feng Timo would not be deceived by such poor acting skills.
Feng Timo curled his lips like a mirror image and rolled his eyes secretly. He lay on the bed without any image and said perfunctorily,"Alright, alright! I hate it the most, okay?"
"Tsk! It's good that you know!"
Zhou Erke uttered a rare tsundere sentence. As if she had suddenly thought of something, she looked up at the increasingly violent rain outside the window and muttered in distress,""Why is the rain getting heavier? How can I go back now…"
"Then we won't go back!"
Feng Timo replied without raising his head. He stretched lazily, revealing half of his belly. Then, he added with a smile,"It just so happens that I'm bored sleeping alone. Why don't you stay here and chat with me?”
It had to be said that Feng Timo was still a little too naive. If it was just Feng Timo alone, Zhou Erke, who also felt lonely at home, naturally wouldn't reject him. However, when she thought of the man in the kitchen who had seen her naked the moment they met, Zhou Erke still shook her head reflexively like a rattle drum.
"I…I don't want to!"
After rejecting Feng Timo's request with a slight stutter, Zhou Erke paused for a moment and pleaded softly with a slightly red face,""Um…lend me an umbrella later. I'll return it to you when I have the chance.”
Everyone in the world had compassion. Although he really wanted Zhou Erke to stay at home to accompany him, when he saw the unconcealable panic on his best friend's face, Feng Timo secretly hesitated for a moment and finally gave up the idea of acting shamelessly and coquettishly to force her to stay.
Feng Timo nodded unwillingly. He pushed himself up from the bed with both hands. Just as he was about to get up, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and smiled awkwardly." Erke, I don't think we have an umbrella at home…"
"Wha…what is this?"
The unexpected reply almost made Zhou Erke's eyes pop out. She scratched her head as if she was going crazy. With a broken face, Zhou Erke asked,""No umbrella? Then don't you go out when it rains?”
Speaking of which, Zhou Erke's breakdown was not difficult to understand. According to common sense, most families would prepare a few umbrellas at home regardless of whether they could use them or not. After all, no one could guarantee that they would not encounter an accident. If they encountered some irresistible unexpected event on a rainy day, it would be unbearable to not have an umbrella.
However, Old Ye's family was indeed a very strange exception. Feng Timo looked at Zhou Erke with an embarrassed expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He explained in a low voice with an incomparably guilty conscience,""My brother never lets me go out on rainy days…"
The seemingly normal explanation stunned Zhou Erke for a moment, but she quickly asked with an unwilling expression,""What about your brother? Doesn't your brother need an umbrella when he goes out on a rainy day?”
"This…"
After a strange pause, Feng Timo hesitated for a long time before adding with a smile,"My brother likes to get wet in the rain, so…"
Puff!
The irrefutable reason almost made Zhou Erke spit blood on Feng Timo's face. Seeing Feng Timo looking at her with a complicated gaze filled with guilt and anticipation, Zhou Erke secretly gritted her teeth and suddenly stood up to walk in the direction of the bathroom.
"Eh? Erke, what are you doing?"
"Get the clothes! Even if it was raining today! I want to go home too!"
