This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 14

Because of Zhou's existence, Yi Ming's dream of lingering around Jiang Wei every day was dashed.

Not only that, Jiang Wei had also recently laid down the law to him: First, no more freeloading meals, because sister Zhou needs to review for her postgraduate entrance exam and can't be disturbed; Second, no more practicing "dog barking" on the balcony to attract little Shi, don't think she doesn't know he's trying to get Jiang Wei to secretly meet up with him; Third, no more slipping little notes under the door to scare people, if caught again, friendship over!

Each of these rules had historical evidence that Jiang Wei did not wrongly accuse him.

But Yi Ming was so smart, with a college entrance examination score of over 700, it didn't come easy. His IQ was high, he had to make full use of everything he obtained.

Jiang Wei forbid Yi Ming from freeloading meals, so Yi Ming came up with a brilliant idea.

As long as Jiang Wei was at home, when it was mealtime, the small bamboo basket tied to the clothesline pole next door would surely land on Jiang Wei’s balcony.

At first, Jiang Wei still indulged him, leaving him a full portion of food neatly arranged in lunch boxes every day, tapping on the railing, and Yi Ming would happily run up to collect the clothesline pole.

Later, a certain person became more and more presumptuous.

Today, Zhou and Jiang Wei were eating in the dining room. Jiang Wei looked up and saw the clothesline pole flung over with a "whoosh".

Some people fish for fun, willing fish take the bait, while Yi Ming fished for “meals”, betting that Jiang Wei would not bear to let him go hungry, and it worked every time.

Jiang Wei clenched her fist and coughed lightly twice, "Sister Zhou you go ahead, I’ll go get some fresh air on the balcony."

Jiang Wei got up, discreetly holding the lunchbox from the kitchen. Just as she crouched down to put it in, she was surprised to find a note lying in the bamboo basket today.

It was a square sticky note, with bold and vigorous handwriting — "The garlic sprouts were a bit tough yesterday, hurt my teeth. Tomorrow I want sweet and sour ribs."

Jiang Wei picked up the sticky note and quickly replied in big letters:

"I think you look like sweet and sour ribs."

Jiang Wei didn’t have that much time to cater to his every need, so she simply cut off his ideas and forbid him from using the clothesline pole to “beg for food”.

Yi Ming didn't expect Jiang Wei to be so heartless. With the smell of food but nothing to eat during mealtimes, that wouldn’t do!

So a new idea came to his ingenious mind. The “three laws” only said no barking to attract little Shi, there was no rule against making other animal sounds!

"Meow -"

"Meow -"

"Meow -"

Zhou really couldn’t stand it anymore. She put down her postgraduate entrance exam mock test paper, quietly opened her room door a little, looking solemnly at Jiang Wei reading on the sofa, "Little Wei, have you heard any strange sounds these past few days?"

Jiang Wei's expression was unchanged as her eyes glanced towards the balcony before calmly shifting back: "I heard it, probably a stray cat. Don't worry about it sister Zhou, just ignore it."

Zhou worriedly bit her lip, her gaze complicated, "This cat has been shrieking miserably for days, could it be... someone nearby is abusing cats?"

The corner of Jiang Wei's mouth twitched.

Abusing cats? Hmm... does not giving him food count?

"Probably not," Jiang Wei calmly closed her book with composure and smiled gently, "it's probably just in heat."

Moments later, the WeChat notification tone rang:

Demon Yi: "Comrade Jiang Wei, don't think I can't hear you bad mouthing me just because you're talking inside. The balcony door is open! Please respect me, how can you say that such a wonderful and sunny good boy is in heat?!"

Jiang Wei: "Oh, sorry, my bad. You're not in heat, just bored."

Demon Yi: “Jiang Wei, I’m starving to death, save me.”

Jiang Wei: “Mr. Wonderful and Sunny Boy, please pick up your phone now and open Meituan delivery, there’s a saying - Meituan delivery, delivers anything fast. If you really don’t want delivery, D University cafeteria welcomes you. I see the aunties’ problem of food slipping off their serving shovels has improved lately."

"No way, I grew up eating Cheerios, how can mundane human food suit my sophisticated palate?"

Jiang Wei: "......"

What Cheerios, I see someone clearly grew up "thick-skinned"!
