"When I said you should save the joy for the real deal, I didn't an to co to my house to see it imdiately, you know?"
Standing in front of the twins right now was Shao Jingfei, who had an utterly shocked expression on his face. Especially when he saw Li Caiyi dragging a mini-suitcase behind her.
"Are you guys going sowhere? But why are you here?" Shao Jingfei tilted his head in confusion.
Li Chunhua smiled smugly as though she had just co up with the most brilliant idea. In contrast, Li Caiyi smiled awkwardly at Shao Jingfei, looking as lost as he was.
"Xiaoyi will use the spare room in your house temporarily. You said there is an empty room upstairs, right?" Li Chunhua folded his arms in front of her body and declared it in a matter-of-factly tone, rendering Shao Jingfei speechless.
"Wait, so that's why you suddenly called and asked so many things randomly. It was all for this?!"
Li Chunhua harrumphed. "What else? There is a situation at ho, so I will let you watch over my sister for a while. But don't you dare do anything funny to her, or I will hunt you down to the end of the world!"
Shao Jingfei kept opening and closing his mouth several tis, conflicted about what to say. His mind couldn't process everything at once.
Li Caiyi sighed at the sight because she was sure that Li Chunhua was probably acting on her whim again. Shao Jingfei must have not been inford yet about her arrival. No wonder he was flabbergasted.
"Jingfei, I'm really sorry about this. If it's too much of a bother, please don't hesitate to say it. I can just stay at the hotel for tonight." Li Caiyi said apologetically.
"Caiyi, can you explain to first what the hell is going on here? I'm so confused right now. I need an explanation."
"Hey, don't ask her that. I will explain to you later!" Li Chunhua tried to stop Shao Jingfei, but Li Caiyi shook her head.
"No, it's okay, Xiaohua. Jingfei has the right to know if he will be the one who accommodates . I don't mind at all."
Li Chunhua was unhappy but decided to agree for now. anwhile, Li Caiyi began to tell Shao Jingfei the gist of the situation.
At the end of her explanation, Shao Jingfei sighed loudly. "Now I understand the situation. I'd appreciate it if you guys could tell that from the beginning, though."
"Sorry, everything happened too fast, and I didn't expect Xiaohua to bring to your place."
Li Caiyi shot a disapproving look at her sister, which responded with a grimace by the latter.
"No, it's okay. It's just… Are you sure it will be okay? Sure, there will be a lot of cats here, so we wouldn't be exactly alone, but I'm the only human here, and I'm a man." Shao Jingfei scratched his cheek awkwardly, finding it difficult to express his thought, "If you know what I an?"
"Everything would be fine as long as you keep your hand to yourself," Li Chunhua said.
The boy quickly defended himself when he felt Li Chunhua's judging gaze. "Hey, don't get wrong! Of course, I won't do anything to Caiyi. I was worried that she would be uncomfortable staying under the sa roof as ."
Shao Jingfei mulled over it for a while before an idea ca to him.
"That's right! Why don't you ask Senior ng for help? His place should be much more comfortable than my shabby place, and there would be his family and servants too, isn't that right?"
Shao Jingfei thought he had co up with a brilliant idea, but upon noticing Li Caiyi's crooked smile, his enthusiasm dissipated. Beside Li Caiyi, Li Chunhua shook her head helplessly and mouthed the word 'stupid' at him.
Then Shao Jingfei rembered ng Renshu's rejected confession the other day and felt like he had suggested sothing unacceptable.
"On second thought, that is probably a bad idea because it will be a pain in the neck to keep our manners in a strict household like that. Haha, yeah, that's a bad idea."
"Jingfei, as long as I can get a space for myself, I don't mind sharing the place with you. It would be convenient too because I can discuss my novel with you more often now."
"Well, if you don't mind with my place, I don't particularly mind, either. It's nice having another human accompany in this house." He grinned widely as he rolled his long sleeves to his elbow.
"Then let clean the place for a bit. It was supposed to be a spare bedroom, but I used it as a storage room because it was unused. Both of you can wait here for a mont and relax."
"Thank you, Jingfei. I feel like I have inconvenienced you a lot. Do you need help with cleaning? We can help you." Li Caiyi said guiltily.
"Haha, don't worry. I will only need to move so stuff and clean up for a bit. And I'm happy if I can help a friend in need, so you don't have to feel bad for . Anyway, I'm off to clean now."
After that, Shao Jingfei entered a door in the back of the counter and disappeared behind it. Li Caiyi was grateful that Shao Jingfei was such an easy-going person. Although he demanded an explanation, he didn't try to pry deeper than necessary and imdiately agreed once Li Caiyi ntioned she was having a fight with her father.
Now, if only Li Chunhua had told them about this arrangent beforehand, this confusion wouldn't happen in the first place.
"Xiaohua, what are you thinking? No matter how tolerant Shao Jingfei is, barging into his house in the middle of the night without prior notice is rude. You should have at least told about it so I could talk to him first." Li Caiyi reprimanded her sister sternly.
"But, I don't know if you will agree to stay with him if I tell you beforehand…."
"That goes both ways. What if we make Jingfei uncomfortable and feel pressured to help us because we co here uninvited?"
"No, he will 100% agree. I bet all my fortune on it."
"How can you be so sure about that?"
"He is your fan, Xiaoyi. That is the only reason I reluctantly accept his place as the temporary shelter for you." Li Chunhua pouted. "I know he won't do anything to you, so you can relax and take a rest here."
"No, it's not like I doubt him or anything. Even if he is not my fan, I know he isn't interested in that way, so I'm not worried at all."
"You are too naïve! Even though he looks laid back, never let your guard down around a guy!"
"You are contradicting yourself. What do you want to do?" Li Caiyi shook her head to end this pointless conversation.
In a positive light, this ant that Li Chunhua trusted Shao Jingfei enough to even recomnd his place to be her shelter for a while. This made Li Caiyi even more curious regarding when and how both of them get closer.
"Xiaohua, what is your relationship with Jingfei?"
