Chapter 64
Jiang Wei stared blankly at him, feeling something melting in her heart.
"Yi Ming, you..."
She didn't know why Yi Ming would suddenly say such things, but when she met his eyes that sparkled like stars with a gentle glow, she couldn't bring herself to ask him anymore.
She understood that no matter what he had just experienced, the words he spoke now came from the bottom of his heart.
"Jiang Xiaowei, are you touched by what I just said?"
Jiang Wei was silent, and Yi Ming suddenly let out an untimely chuckle. He tapped the edge of the bowl lightly with his chopsticks, "Say it, say it, are you touched or not?"
The mood that Jiang Wei had just brewed instantly crumbled...
This Yi Ming, really couldn't stay serious for more than three seconds.
Jiang Wei gave him a helpless glare: "Yi Xiaoming, are you itching for trouble again?"
Yi Ming smiled innocently, turned the chopsticks around, and tapped Jiang Wei's head with the tail end: "Are you feeling bloated? Well, then my goal is achieved. You can't finish the beef, right? It's all mine then."
Although Yi Ming didn't directly say he would take Jiang Wei's beef, what he actually did was transfer all the beef from his own bowl to Jiang Wei's.
Jiang Wei couldn't help but laugh. This guy always had a knack for annoying her, yet he could make her forgive him in a second.
She remembered that morning when she was nine years old and came downstairs to eat noodles with Yi Ming.
From that time on, Yi Ming had already shown the demeanor of a "little gentleman."
"Here, have it, it's all for you."
Yi Ming transferred several pieces of beef from his bowl to Jiang Wei's. Jiang Wei pursed her lips and said in a childish voice, "Then what will you eat?"
"I like eating noodles, not beef. Look at you, you're almost not taller than the table, you should eat more meat to grow."
"Who's not taller than the table? I'm at least the third tallest in the girls' group!"
Jiang Wei argued with him, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved into a slight smile.
She ate the beef that Yi Ming gave her, bite by bite. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt that the meat sent from his bowl always tasted better. After Jiang Wei had eaten half a bowl, she looked up and noticed Yi Ming was searching for something in his bowl with his chopsticks.
"What are you looking for?"
Jiang Wei's voice startled Yi Ming. He panicked and gripped his chopsticks tightly, then grinned, "Nothing, I'm almost full."
Jiang Wei frowned slightly. She had actually seen it all.
"You're looking for meat scraps, aren't you?"
At Jiang Wei's words, little Yi Ming's face turned red: "No, I'm not."
Jiang Wei bit her lip and thought for a moment, then scooped the remaining beef from her bowl into Yi Ming's, "Here, you eat it."
"No, I won't eat it. I told you, you're too small. You need to eat more to grow taller."
Yi Ming was flustered and slapped his chopsticks on the table.
The young Jiang Wei was so calm back then. She stared at him with her indifferent little eyes for a while, then slowly uttered a sentence that brought the stubborn little Yi Ming to his knees.
"My family has a genetic tendency to be slim and petite. In the future, I'll need to find a boy to protect me. I need to find someone strong and robust. You don't seem... quite up to it."
Before Jiang Wei had even finished her words, little Yi Ming had already buried his head in the bowl, eating the beef with great relish, one piece after another...
