Chapter 373: Nothing Happened
Ye Ziming’s hair wasn’t long, so it only took him a few minutes to dry it.
After tidying up a bit, like putting clothes into the washing machine, it was time to go to bed.
As usual, Ye Ziming walked to the bedside, sat down, glanced at his phone, and then took off his slippers before getting into bed and under the covers.
During this process, he was surprised to find that Xiaomuqing was still blushing and staring intently at him.
He hadn’t expected that the kiss he gave her just now would have such a lasting effect.
“Are you ready to sleep?”
Before turning off the light and lying down to sleep, Ye Ziming looked at Xiaomuqing with a smile, as if asking.
“…Mm.”
Looking at her good brother, Xiaomuqing was incredibly nervous, her heartbeat was faster than ever before, as if it would jump out of her mouth at any moment.
Did it really have to be *that* time?
Was he really coming?
Xiaomuqing felt like she wasn’t ready and wanted to retreat, find a place to hide, or bury her head like an ostrich.
“Cough, cough, can you pull it back a bit? I’m going to be uncovered.”
“Ah… Oh, oh.”
“…”
Ye Ziming pulled the blanket a bit closer to himself while looking at Xiaomuqing and finding it strange.
Was it his imagination? Why did it feel like Xiaomuqing’s gaze was trying to devour him?
And that flustered expression, and guilty eyes, it just looked problematic in every way.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Ziming decided to let it go. His stupid loli just liked to act this way.
With a ‘click’, Ye Ziming turned off the last desk lamp in the room and then lay down to sleep.
Of course, before closing his eyes, he and Xiaomuqing would exchange a goodnight.
Then came the actual falling asleep…
After an unknown amount of time, the room was pitch black and completely silent.
In this environment, Xiaomuqing remained in her previous posture, her eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling from under the covers, lost in thought.
Then… there was no then…
Xiaomuqing: “No, wait a minute! Didn’t he say he was going to sleep? What the heck… is he really just… going to sleep!?”
If that was the case, then all her overthinking just now was for nothing?
Her face turned red again.
This time, it was out of shame, a wave of shame washing over her.

Just as Xiaomuqing was thinking that this was the end of it and preparing to act as if nothing had happened, she was surprised to find…
Her panties seemed to have accidentally gotten a little wet…
“Wuwuwu, this is even more uncomfortable now.”
Her good brother must have some panties at home, but in the dark, she had no idea where they were!
Hesitation, discomfort, wanting to cry, whimpering.
Finally, in her helplessness, Xiaomuqing made an unprecedentedly bold decision, which was to take off her panties.
After that, she was nervous and uneasy for a while, and then she unexpectedly found that sleeping this way felt… quite good.
And a little exciting.
Thus, Xiaomuqing closed her eyes, gradually felt sleepiness creeping in, and soon drifted off to dreamland.
PS: As everyone knows, Xiaomuqing doesn’t like to wear pants when she sleeps.
One night passed, and the next day arrived…
Early that morning, as Ye Ziming turned over, he felt like he was pressing something underneath him, and it was uncomfortable against his back.
Without thinking, he instinctively reached under and found what seemed to be a piece of cloth.
Out of curiosity, he frowned, took the thing out from under the covers, and opened his eyes to look at it.
“!?
With that glance, Ye Ziming woke up completely, his slightly sleepy eyes widening.
Although the light in the room was dim, he could still tell by touch and general shape that it was a pair of panties.
And they were Xiaomuqing’s!
Ye Ziming: “What’s going on!? Is this… a bonus? It can’t be, I don’t have that kind of hobby.”
His eyebrows twitched, and then the corners of his mouth twitched. Ye Ziming thought this whole situation was ridiculous.
Ahem, forget it, let’s get up first, and I’ll ask about the situation later.
With the normal physiological reaction that all boys have, Ye Ziming entered the restroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.
As for the panties, he placed them on the bedside table next to Xiaomuqing’s pajama pants, so she could easily find them when she woke up.
After washing up, Ye Ziming walked to the bedside and glanced at Xiaomuqing. He thought for a moment and decided to go downstairs first without waking her.
He didn’t know that Xiaomuqing, due to thinking about him, had stayed up late fantasizing and had basically pulled an all-nighter.
Ye Ziming was busy downstairs for a while, but Xiaomuqing hadn’t come down.
“She’s not awake yet.”
Downstairs, Ye Mengze nudged Ye Ziming’s arm, curious why Xiaomuqing wasn’t up yet.
After all, everyone else had already had breakfast, and Xiaomuqing was the only one left.
“She should be awake.”
Ye Ziming stopped what he was doing, looked at Ye Mengze, and said uncertainly.
Just then, Li Muning suddenly appeared and pulled Ye Ziming aside, asking with a smile:
“Last night, what good things did you two do? Tell Mom.”
Ye Ziming: “…Sweat.”
He couldn’t understand why his mother was so invested in Xiaomuqing’s situation.
Good things did happen, Xiaomuqing had admitted she liked him, and they had even had an intimate interaction all night.
But it was definitely not the kind of “good things” Ye Mengze and Li Muning were thinking of.
“Alright, you keep working, I’ll go check if she’s up.”
After hearing Ye Ziming’s answer, Li Muning smiled casually, her eyes showing a hint of disappointment.
Ye Mengze’s reaction was similar. Her burning desire for gossip was suddenly extinguished, and she felt her brother was too much of a disappointment.
Being stared at by the two women again, Ye Ziming felt embarrassed. He still couldn’t understand…
The scene switched. Ye Ziming and Ye Mengze continued to do the finishing touches. They were almost done and could rest, preparing to welcome future in-laws to their home.
Meanwhile, Li Muning arrived at the door of Ye Ziming’s room. Worried that Xiaomuqing was still sleeping, she quietly opened the door.
What she saw next was this:
Xiaomuqing had just woken up and sat up, clearly still groggy and disoriented.
Two buttons on her pajamas were undone, revealing half of her shoulder and collarbone. She was still under the covers with her lower body.
Also, because she had just woken up, her waist-length hair was a bit messy, giving her a post-coital look.
What shocked Li Muning the most was that Xiaomuqing was looking down, holding her panties in her hands and staring at them blankly.
“Hmm, huh? Aunt?”
With a slight delay, Xiaomuqing belatedly realized someone was watching her. Only then did she lift her head and see Aunt standing at the door, looking at her with a very strange expression.
