Chapter 375: Innocent and Naive

Lin Feng stood under the showerhead to rinse the foam off his body, when suddenly Tong Xiaoxue leaned in close, her pair of pitch-black eyes sparkling.

"Uncle, why do you have a piece of meat more than I do here? When I grow up, will I have a piece of meat like that too?" Tong Xiaoxue asked, even reaching out her little hand to grab at the piece of meat Lin Feng had that she didn't.

Lin Feng was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Tong Xiaoxue's little hand, then scolded, "Why do you have so many questions, you little girl? Are you a 'Hundred Thousand Whys'?"

Tong Xiaoxue immediately wore a look of grievance.

Seeing this, Lin Feng had to soften his tone and said, "Even when you grow up, you won't have one. Little girls don't have that thing."

"Why don't little girls have it?" Tong Xiaoxue asked again.

"This... you'll know when you grow up," Lin Feng said irritably.

Just at this moment, the bathroom door was pulled open with a swish, and Lin Jingying ran in without a stitch of clothing on.

"I'm done with my work, I'm here to take a bath too!" Lin Jingying said with a laugh.

Tong Xiaoxue immediately pointed at Lin Feng and said, "Auntie Lin, look, Uncle has an extra piece of meat there!"

Lin Jingying chuckled and said, "That is a man's treasure; you can't just touch it."

"No wonder Uncle was so angry when I wanted to touch it just now..." Tong Xiaoxue said, as if talking to herself, suddenly realizing.

Hearing this, Lin Jingying laughed even more happily.

Lin Feng said annoyedly, "What are you laughing at! Take this, you help her scrub."

As Lin Feng spoke, he tossed the loofah used for scrubbing to Lin Jingying. Lin Jingying grabbed the loofah in her hand with a smile and said, "Junior Brother, I know you're shy. Every time you're shy, you pretend to be annoyed..."

"Shut up!" Lin Feng said angrily.

Lin Jingying giggled while helping Tong Xiaoxue scrub, and the bathroom was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Moreover, as they washed, the two females, one big and one small, even started a water fight, practically treating the bathroom like a water park.

Suddenly, Tong Xiaoxue squatted down on the floor covered in bathwater.

Lin Jingying thought something was wrong with Tong Xiaoxue, so she asked, "Xiaoxue, what are you doing?"

"I'm peeing, I want to pee..."

Before Tong Xiaoxue could finish her sentence, Lin Jingying hurriedly rushed over to pick her up, patted her little bottom, and then placed her on the toilet.

"How can you pee and poop just anywhere! You can only pee here, do you understand?" Lin Jingying said with a stern face.

"But my mommy said I can pee on the floor when I'm taking a bath," Tong Xiaoxue said with an innocent look.

"That's because your mommy isn't particular," Lin Jingying said irritably.

"What does 'not particular' mean?" Tong Xiaoxue asked again.

"It means not being civilized," Lin Jingying explained.

"What does 'not being civilized' mean?" Tong Xiaoxue continued to ask.

Lin Jingying felt a splitting headache, and when Lin Feng saw that Lin Jingying had encountered the same fate as he had just now, he started to sneer.

"What are you laughing at? Is it that funny!" Lin Jingying said angrily.

"Senior Sister, I know you're shy. Every time you're shy, you pretend to be annoyed..."

Lin Feng laughed, returning the exact words Lin Jingying had just said to her, which made Lin Jingying even angrier.

After making a fuss for a long time, Lin Feng, Lin Jingying, and Tong Xiaoxue finally finished their bath.

Lin Jingying had already tidied up a room for Tong Xiaoxue, and this room was located right next to her own bedroom.

This way, if Tong Xiaoxue needed anything, it would be much more convenient to find her, and if Tong Xiaoxue had an accident, she could also rush over immediately.

Lin Jingying picked Tong Xiaoxue up, placed her on the bed, and pulled the quilt over her.

"Hurry up and sleep, Xiaoxue, it's almost ten o'clock at night," Lin Jingying said.

"Auntie Lin, what kind of quilt is this? It's so soft, and the pillow is soft and squishy too..." Xiaoxue said very happily.

"Of course it's soft and squishy. I prepared it especially for you. The four-piece bedding set cost me over ten thousand yuan!" Lin Jingying said.

"So expensive," Xiaoxue exclaimed.

"Alright, go to sleep now. Tomorrow I'll take you out to the street to play," Lin Jingying said with a smile.

Xiaoxue said "mm," nodded vigorously, and closed her eyes.

Lin Jingying then came out of Xiaoxue's room and couldn't wait to return to her own bedroom.

Seeing that Lin Feng was already lying on the bed, Lin Jingying let out a "ya-hoo" and flew over, jumping up and pouncing on Lin Feng.

Then she hugged Lin Feng, kissing and nibbling on him, while her two slender, jade-like hands wandered all over Lin Feng's body.

"Can you not act like a female pervert?" Lin Feng rolled his eyes and said.

Lin Jingying, however, put on a stern face and said, "I am a female pervert, I'm a super female pervert. Handsome, just submit to me..."

Having said that, Lin Jingying prepared to have a real, full-blown showdown with Lin Feng, to determine who was superior and who would live or die.

But just at this moment, a series of thumping footsteps came from outside.

Lin Feng and Lin Jingying looked toward the door together, and the next second, the door was pushed open a crack.

They saw Tong Xiaoxue, wearing a little nightgown and clutching a snow-white pillow in her arms, standing at the door, twisting and turning as she peeked in and asked, "Uncle, Auntie, can I sleep with you two?"

"No..."

Lin Jingying slumped in defeat, letting out a helpless groan.

Raising a child really isn't easy.

This was only a child a few years old; if it were a newborn baby, it would probably drive a person crazy.

The next morning, Lin Jingying took Tong Xiaoxue to the city center to go shopping.

Lin Feng, meanwhile, took the time to come to the home of Chen Huili and Chen Yilin.

Chen Huili was not at home; she had gone to be busy at her small restaurant, so only the sick Chen Yilin was at home.

"Xiaolin, how are you now?" Lin Feng asked.

"I'm alright, just a little dizzy in the head, nothing else really," Chen Yilin said in a soft, weak voice, as if she had no strength.

Lin Feng reached out and touched Chen Yilin's forehead, saying, "You're so hot, and you still say there's nothing wrong with you?"

"I have a fever, so it's normal to be hot," Chen Yilin said.

Afterwards, Chen Yilin grabbed Lin Feng's hand, her cheeks slightly flushed, and asked hesitantly, "Big Brother Lin, do... do you want to..."

"Want to what?" Lin Feng asked.

Chen Yilin gathered her courage and said shyly, "Do you want to try thirty-nine degrees?"

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment before he realized what Chen Yilin meant, and he said, both amused and annoyed, "You're already sick, so stop talking nonsense. I know you're grateful to me, but there's no need to wrong yourself like this."

"I'm not wronging myself, I want to try it too... I've missed you so much, I dream about you, I'm almost starting to hallucinate," Chen Yilin said, blushing.

"Even so, I can't... The most I can do is keep you company."

Lin Feng said, then got onto the bed and pulled Chen Yilin into his arms.

Although she was only snuggled in the crook of Lin Feng's arm and they did nothing else, Chen Yilin felt warm inside, and her illness seemed to have eased quite a bit.
