Chapter 155: Daily Life at Watching Ailian's Home 1
Originally brimming with sleepiness, Watching Ailian didn't think much of it; she casually grabbed a piece of clothing and walked into the bathroom.
Perhaps bewitched by drowsiness, in her haziness, she completely forgot about Ye Ye Qingfeng's presence.
Living alone had instilled in Watching Ailian a fixed bathing routine.
In the past, after every bath, she would put on nothing but a shirt, walk through the living room back to her bedroom, and then change into her favorite shark pajamas.
Precisely because of this, when passing through the living room this time, she failed to notice Ye Ye Qingfeng entirely and headed straight for her room.
"Ehe!"
After witnessing that scene and feasting his eyes, Ye Ye Qingfeng quickly averted his gaze, yet the image lingered in his mind, leaving a deep impression.
Only then did Watching Ailian realize what had happened; clutching her changed clothes, she darted back to her room like a frightened rabbit.
Hiding behind her bedroom door, her voice tinged with panic, she shouted to Ye Ye Qingfeng, "Brother Ye Qingfeng, you go take a bath first; I'll go downstairs right now to buy you a set of pajamas."
"No need! I brought some!" Ye Ye Qingfeng waved his hand and walked directly into the bathroom.
Tilting her head, Watching Ailian's face was filled with confusion, wondering inwardly: Where are the clothes? How did I miss them?
Hmm... never mind! (?????)
If Brother Ye Qingfeng says he has them, then he must have them...
Usually, after bathing, Watching Ailian would toss her changed clothes into the laundry basket in the bathroom, accumulating them for a few days before washing them all together in the washing machine.
Today she was quite lucky, having just finished washing the previous load yesterday, so she didn't have to deal with a huge pile of dirty laundry;
but unfortunately, since Brother Ye Qingfeng was bathing in the bathroom, she couldn't casually toss her changed clothes into the basket as she normally did.
Helplessly, she could only carry the clothes out and hide them in her room.
Standing in her room, Watching Ailian's eyes wandered about; after scanning the surroundings, her gaze finally fixed upon the wardrobe.
She yanked the wardrobe open, and instantly, a dazzling array of clothes, diverse in style and pattern, came into view.
Among them, the most conspicuous item was undoubtedly a maid outfit.
Hastily, she piled the clothes in her arms atop a large stack of garments.
Actually, even before this, she had frequently hidden scattered clothes from her room inside this very wardrobe.
Undoubtedly, if Ye Ye Qingfeng happened to open this wardrobe, he would surely discover the chaotic scene within.
After confirming the clothes wouldn't fall out, Watching Ailian eagerly slammed the wardrobe door shut.
Turning around, her gaze naturally settled upon the shark pajamas lying on the bed.
This was a custom-made onesie pajama set, unique and adorable in design.
Once worn, it perfectly enveloped the upper body; atop the head sat a lifelike shark head featuring a circular opening, perfectly sized to expose her face.
Since she was inherently a Sharkthian, the pajamas avoided the superfluous addition of a tail; instead, the area where a tail would be was modified into a large hole, allowing her to extend her own tail through it.
The remaining fabric length was also just right, covering her hips while leaving her two Bai Xi legs exposed.
Fortunately, her cold resistance was excellent, so she felt no chill.
Watching Ailian had commissioned this pajama set partly because she loved its unique style, but more importantly, because it was extremely comfortable to wear.
For her, sleeping itself might not be the most important thing in life, but sleeping comfortably absolutely ranked second in her heart.
After all, Sharky loves sleeping the most!
? (??)?
However, recalling that Ye Ye Qingfeng would be staying in her home tonight, Watching Ailian had to forsake this favorite pair of pajamas.
She rummaged through the wardrobe, instead pulling out a pair of cotton shorts and a thin jacket, putting them on one after the other.
After changing, like a thief, she cautiously and slowly opened the bedroom door, her large, round eyes vigilantly scanning the living room.
Only upon hearing the rushing sound of water from the bathroom did she breathe a sigh of relief, boldly stepping out of her room.
"Hmph! Brother Ye Qingfeng is deliberately playing tricks, waiting for me to come out of the bathroom just to take advantage of me?
I can't suffer such a loss in my own home; I must get even!"
Thinking this to herself, Watching Ailian took small, quick steps to the sofa and sat down.
Clutching the shark plushie she had brought from her room, she picked up her phone to casually browse messages, yet in reality, her entire attention was focused on the bathroom door.
Actually, her heart was extremely uneasy.
Over so many years, very few people had ever spent the night in her home.
Previously, only Ruby and the others had visited a few times; no boys had ever come, let alone Brother Ye Qingfeng, for whom she harbored favorable feelings.
Just as Watching Ailian was lost in random thoughts, suddenly, the sound of water from the bathroom ceased without warning.
Her heart tightened sharply, her heartbeat instantly accelerated, and subconsciously, she swallowed hard.
What do I do, what do I do?! (′? 皿? `)
At this moment, inside the bathroom, Ye Ye Qingfeng naturally made use of Watching Ailian's shampoo and body wash.
After rinsing clean, he turned off the faucet, gave his wrist a dashing flick, and a bath towel appeared in his hand.
Humming a little tune cheerfully, he dried his body.
Subsequently, he reached into his spatial backpack, rummaged around, and pulled out a set of pajamas to change into.
This time, he had specifically chosen a set of pajamas that wasn't so childish.
It couldn't be helped; most of his clothes had been purchased previously with Sister Nico.
Those clothes that looked childish were often much cheaper than the others.
After Sister Nico's silver-tongued bargaining, they had ultimately secured them at a discounted price on top of a discount.
Normally, at the Cunning Hare House, everyone was familiar with each other, so wearing those childish clothes never felt awkward.
But now the situation was different...
In front of Watching Ailian, if he wore that kind of clothing, he truly felt he might as well wear nothing at all...
Watching Ailian's inner monologue OS: Hehe! (Drooling) I agree!!
Soon, a normal set of black pajamas was quickly donned by him.
The pajama fabric was silky and felt excellent, appearing to carry a trace of noble temperament.
The perfectly fitted cut flawlessly accentuated Ye Ye Qingfeng's handsome and elegant figure.
With one hand holding the Mao Jin to casually wipe his hair, and the other naturally gripping the door handle, he applied slow pressure, causing the door to open gradually from the inside.
The instant she heard the sound, Ellen, who had long been standing at attention, spun around full of expectation and eagerly cast an assessing gaze toward the bathroom entrance.
Aaaah—! (???????????)
As her pupils focused, Ye Ye Qingfeng's appearance abruptly appeared before her eyes.
Several strands of black hair hung casually over his forehead; water droplets slid down from the tips of his hair, slowly gathering along his cheeks until they reached his chin. After pausing briefly at his chin, the crystal-clear droplets slowly fell, finally landing on his collarbone.
She was instantly deeply captivated by this exquisite vessel; her eyes widened greatly as she stared fixedly at Ye Ye Qingfeng, while heavy panting sounds involuntarily escaped her mouth.
Hehe! Ye Qingfeng~~
"Ellen, weren't you very tired? Why haven't you slept yet?"
Sensing Ellen's unblinking, ardent gaze, Ye Ye Qingfeng felt immensely pleased; he involuntarily curled the corners of his mouth, exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, and asked softly.
"Ah... um, I'm here to get the quilt for you, right!" Only upon hearing Ye Ye Qingfeng's voice did Ellen barely come to her senses.
She hastily withdrew her gaze, her expression flustered, and explained guiltily, "To get the quilt for you! Otherwise, what if Brother Ye Qingfeng catches a cold tonight!"
"I didn't expect Ellen to be so attentive! But where is the quilt?" Ye Ye Qingfeng saw through Ellen's lie at a glance, yet he did not expose her, instead continuing to play along with her words.
"It's in the room! I'll go get it now!" Ellen reacted quickly, nimbly stood up, and hurriedly ran toward the room.
"Wait a moment!" Ye Ye Qingfeng suddenly called out.
"Wh... what's wrong?" Ellen came to an abrupt halt at the doorway; her body leaned forward slightly due to inertia, so she quickly held onto the doorframe and slowly turned around.
"Are you hungry?" Ye Ye Qingfeng looked at her and asked with a faint smile on his lips.
"Yes..." Ellen answered subconsciously.
"Go ahead." Ye Ye Qingfeng nodded.
"Ah! Okay..."
Ellen obediently turned back toward the room, but after taking just two steps, she suddenly realized something and wondered in her heart:
That's not right; why did he ask whether I was hungry or not?
