“…… Anyway, Grandma is a person with a hard mouth and a soft heart, don’t be deceived by her appearance, you’ll know after a few more days together, trust me.” Ji Mingxia concluded.
“Of course, your grandmother is my grandmother, in the future I want to be filial to her with you.” Yu Ning said.
Ji Mingxia was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was what he had just said to Grandma Ji. Not only did Yu Ning hear all of it, but he had also sent it back in its original form to tease him.
“Good for you Yu Ning, you’ve learned to take advantage of me so quickly.” Ji Mingxia laughed.
Yu Ning looked at him and slowly moved closer, “I have an advantage too, do you want to take it?”
Ji Mingxia looked at the person close at hand. Yu Ning’s eyelashes were long and curled, the sunlight fell on the side of his face, casting faint shadows under them, and every time he blinked his eyes, It was like a small fan fluttering Ji Mingxia’s heart.
His eyes slowly wandered and landed on Yu Ning’s lips. They were perfectly shaped and the corners of his mouth were still slightly curved, indicating his good mood at the moment.
Ji Mingxia was a little tickled.
Although they had kissed twice, the first was at the hotel, with cameras, and he was the one being pressed, so it didn’t count.
The other time was yesterday, when he initiated the kiss …… but it was just a peck, so it wasn’t satisfying.
And at this moment, the atmosphere was just right, and they were in the privacy of his room, since Yu Ning had enthusiastically given the invitation, he could completely pounce on Yu Ning and show off his majesty.
With this thought, Ji Mingxia was just about to lean over and kiss Yu Ning when there was a sudden knock at the door.
Ji Mingxia was startled and almost stumbled and fell over.
He quickly gathered his expression and got up to open the door by a crack, then peeked his head
Grandma Ji was standing outside and she looked at Ji Mingxia with a stern face, “Are you two going to sleep in the same room at night?”
The expression Ji Mingxia had just put together cracked on the spot and he shook his head in reflex.
“Then why are you hiding in your room and closing the door?” Grandma Ji asked with an expressionless face.
Ji Mingxia’s face instantly reddened with the embarrassment of being caught. He hurriedly pulled the door open and revealed the entire room to Grandma Ji, allowing her to see that he and Yu Ning were fully dressed. “We are just ……we are just tidying up together, we aren’t doing anything, really. “
Grandma Ji looked at Yu Ning, who stood straight and looked at her respectfully, and then at the red-faced Ji Mingxia, before slowly saying, “Mingxia, come and look for the key to the other room with me.”
“Oh, okay.” Ji Mingxia responded. He turned his head and gave Yu Ning a wink, then followed Grandma Ji.
Grandma Ji slowly walked back to her room, and when Ji Mingxia came in, she sat down on a chair and said, “First close the door, then sit down.”
When Ji Mingxia heard this, he understood that his grandmother had something to say to him.
He did as he was told and looked at Grandma Ji with some apprehension.
Grandma Ji looked at Ji Mingxia in silence, and it wasn’t until Ji Mingxia kept glancing at her with a guilty conscience that she sighed and said, “Are you and Yu Ning together?”
In response, Ji Mingxia didn’t intend to hide. His face went red as he nodded and admitted: “Well, I liked him, and then I found out that he liked me too.”
“How far did you go? Did you have sex?” Grandma Ji asked again.
Ji Mingxia almost choked.
Although he knew that his grandmother was open-minded and knew a lot, he didn’t expect her to ask things so directly!
In front of his grandmother, it was Ji Mingxia, the young man, who was shy. He lowered his head in embarrassment, and only after a while did he mumble, “Kissed, kissed twice.”
“Really, you didn’t lie to me?” Grandma Ji asked solemnly.
Ji Mingxia wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in. “What is there to lie to you about?”
Grandma Ji looked at him for a while before concluding that Ji Mingxia was likely telling the truth, so she hummed and said, “That’s more like it, that Yu Ning still has a sense of propriety.”
Ji Mingxia felt like it sounded right at first glance, but when he thought about it more carefully, why did it sound wrong?
Yu Ning was the shou, shouldn’t he be the one who had a sense of propriety?
Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia said to Grandma Ji solemnly, “I have always respected Yu Ning, and since I am with him, I will be responsible for him and will not let him suffer.”
Grandma Ji gave Ji Mingxia a look, and the expression on her face became even more helpless.
She didn’t bother to correct Ji Mingxia and continued to ask, “In that case, what are your plans for the future?”
“The future?” Ji Mingxia froze.
Wasn’t It as simple as being together and establishing a relationship, what plans do they need to make?
Grandma Ji looked at Ji Mingxia’s ignorant appearance, and felt her head starting to throb. “He’s met your family, you’re wearing a ring, aren’t you going to get married?”
“Getting married ……” Ji Mingxia’s eyes widened, not expecting Grandma Ji to think that far ahead!
He and Yu Ning had been together for a few days, and he had only considered the step of confirming their relationship, while Grandma Ji had only met Yu Ning, but she was already thinking about the two of them getting married?!
It was really his grandmother, so unique!
Seeing this surprised look on his face, Grandma Ji was so angry that she knocked on the table and reprimanded Ji Mingxia, “Two men getting together is inherently more difficult than an ordinary couple, not only is there no one to look out for and you can’t reap the blessings of most people around you, but there are no children between you and no offspring to sustain you. If you don’t think about it more carefully, how can you live a good life in the future?”
Ji Mingxia looked at his grandmother and quickly grasped the point, saying with surprise, “Grandma, are you agreeing to me and Yu Ning being together?”
Grandma Ji snorted, and although she didn’t say anything, it was considered an agreement.
Although it was only a brief encounter, the details revealed the truth.
From the moment they entered, Grandma Ji noticed that Ji Mingxia was carrying a simple small bag, and most of his belongings were in Yu Ning’s large backpack. He was even holding the water that Ji Mingxia drank.
Once in the kitchen, it was clearly Ji Mingxia’s home, but in the end, it was Yu Ning who did all the work, while Ji Mingxia hung on the sidelines.
Frying and cooking, laying out and cutting vegetables, washing and storing the dishes after the meal ……Yu Ning did everything, and he did it perfectly.
Although Ji Mingxia deliberately praised Yu Ning, Grandma Ji had lived for a long time, and naturally knew that what he said was not a lie.
When he was at home during the summer holidays, he was the one who did all the work at home.
But as soon as he arrived with Yu Ning by his side, he suddenly became lazy.
From this, it was clear that this was how Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning got along with each other on a regular basis.
They weren’t deliberately acting that way.
Then there was Ji Mingxia’s complexion.
He had been at home during the summer holidays, eating well and recuperating for more than two months, and although he had grown taller, he was far less energetic than he was now.
Days at school were not like those at home, one had to eat canteen food, attend classes and take exams, but after half a year, Ji Mingxia had not lost any weight, but even had a rosy complexion.
Someone was taking care of Ji Mingxia in such a meticulous manner, and Grandma Ji was someone who knew what was good and bad, how could she find fault with Yu Ning.
“However, I don’t know what kind of person he is yet, so I still have to examine him.” Grandma Ji was deeply afraid that Ji Mingxia would drift away and hastily added.
Ji Mingxia hugged his grandmother with a smile. “Fine, I’ll listen to you, grandma is the best.”
Grandma Ji squirmed and turned her head away from him, but after a moment, she couldn’t help but smile.
After talking with Ji Mingxia, Grandma Ji met with Yu Ning again.
“The ring you gave to Mingxia not only saved him, but also saved me and the entire Banana Leaf Village, you are the benefactor to our village, and by rights, when a benefactor comes to the house, the entire village should extend a great salute to you.” Grandma Ji looked at Yu Ning and said, “But today, you are coming as Mingxia’s classmate, a favour is a favour, the two of you have a special relationship and you are also considered my junior, do you agree?”
“I’ll listen to Grandma’s arrangement.” Yu Ning said good-naturedly.
Grandma Ji looked satisfied, “Then come work with me in the village tomorrow, and meet everyone.”
When Grandma Ji went downstairs, Ji Mingxia came forward and handed the key to the guest room next door to Yu Ning, then he whispered, “Grandma says it’s against the law to sleep together when unmarried.”
Yu Ning was stunned and quickly understood the massive message behind Ji Mingxia’s words, and he whispered back, “Then I’ll behave well and try to settle into the room soon.”
That night, Ji Mingxia slept in his bedroom alone.
For the past six months, he had long been used to being in the same room with Yu Ning, and suddenly sleeping alone made him feel a little uncomfortable.
But when he thought of Yu Ning sleeping in his house, right next door, and also what grandma Ji had said today, Ji Mingxia looked forward to their married life.
Compared to others, he was already extremely happy. Not only was he able to gain a lover, but his grandmother was also far more enlightened than ordinary parents. All her thoughts and considerations were for his happiness. She had even planned for their future.
He only felt himself surrounded by warmth and happiness, and he fell asleep with a smile.
In his dream, Ji Mingxia felt warm and his whole body seemed to float up and levitate into the high sky.
When he raised his head, he saw darkness overhead. There was no moonlight, and no stars, it was as if this was the only source of light in the whole world.
He floated high above, like the bright moonlight in the darkness of the night, and the whole world was under his feet. When Ji Mingxia looked down, countless points of light, like starlight and also like moths fluttering to the flame, kept converging towards him and gathering around him.
The sky was filled with points of light that seemed to come from all over the world, and were constantly moving towards Ji Mingxia.
Ji Mingxia stared at the lights in awe. They were red, purple, gold, all kinds of brilliant colours.
As they approached him, Ji Mingxia felt a sense of mastery over them, and he could even feel their emotions.
They seemed a little fearful and a little respectful.
They were eager to lean towards Ji Mingxia, yet fearful of his majesty.
At this moment, a point of light, timidly floated to Ji Mingxia’s eyes.
Ji Mingxia asked curiously, “Are you looking for me?”
He said, and unconsciously extended his hand.
Just as he was about to touch the spot of light, a “knock knock knock” suddenly exploded in Ji Mingxia’s ears.
He opened his eyes in a daze, rolled over and got up from the bed, saying, “The door is unlocked, come in.”
With a creak, the door was pushed open and Yu Ning walked in.
When he saw Ji Mingxia sitting on the bed in his pajamas, a sleepy look on his face and his hair sticking up in the air, Yu Ning’s expression eased a little and a smile appeared on his face.
Ji Mingxia yawned and looked at Yu Ning: “What’s wrong?”
“I …… had a dream where I couldn’t find you.” Yu Ning whispered.
Ji Mingxia froze for a moment and was instantly not sleepy anymore. He couldn’t help but get up and pounce on Yu Ning as he chuckled, “You sleep with me everyday so you’re not used to the sudden change, right?”
Yu Ning looked at Ji Mingxia, and chose not to hide his emotions as he nodded, “Mm.”
“I’m just like you, I tossed and turned for a long time before I fell asleep.” Ji Mingxia laughed, “Let’s make the most of it and get Grandma to agree to us being together sooner!”
He said, energetically changing into his coat and walking into the bathroom to wash up.
Yu Ning remained standing in place, watching as Ji Mingxia hummed as he brushed his teeth, then washed his face, the gloomy look on his face slowly dispersing.
Ji Mingxia was still beside him.
Everything was fine as long as Ji Mingxia was still there.
Yeah Yu Ning over there being all like “please take advantage of me, I’m begging you” lmao
Okay but aside from all of the suspense at the end about the dreams…
[“Good for you Yu Ning, you’ve learned to take advantage of me so quickly.” Ji Mingxia laughed.
Yu Ning looked at him and slowly moved closer, “I have an advantage too, do you want to take it?”]
PLEASE, HE IS SO SMOOTH, I CAN’T KALAKSNWNSKSMDNDKDK—–
