Chapter 72 A lone man and woman alone in a room

As it grew later, the young people still had plenty of energy. Without the Pei family elders accompanying them, Tong Ziyan led Ming Weiyi into an empty room.

"Wow! These dresses are all so beautiful! Are they all prepared for me?" Ming Weiyi's eyes were instantly drawn to the dresses displayed in the room, and it was clear that she really liked them.

The room was neatly arranged with five dresses of different colors and styles, each paired with a suitable pair of high heels. In addition, matching accessories and clutches were also displayed next to the dresses.

"How is it? Do you like it? This is a surprise I prepared for you." Tong Ziyan crossed her arms, looking very satisfied.

"I love it so much! Sister-in-law, you really are the best sister-in-law in the world!" Ming Weiyi happily took Tong Ziyan's arm. It felt so good to not have to worry about anything.

Receiving Ming Weiyi's very positive feedback, Tong Ziyan felt relieved. She looked at Ming Weiyi with affection and said, "It's getting late. I'll take you back to your room to rest first. Tomorrow morning, I'll be waiting for you to try on these dresses that I carefully selected for you."

"Okay!" Beside Tong Ziyan, Ming Wei was just like an obedient little kitten.

"By the way, our band has been invited to perform in Jiangcheng next weekend. You and Pei Ming should come and support us."

"Really? Sister-in-law, when you come to Jiangcheng, I will definitely treat you well and make sure you are happy every day."

After hearing Ming Weiyi's words, Tong Ziyan became even more excited about the trip to Jiangcheng. "Originally, I didn't plan to go out for this performance, but as soon as I heard that it was in Jiangcheng, I immediately agreed."

"You only agreed because you wanted to come and play with me, right!" Ming Weiyi held Tong Ziyan's arm affectionately the whole time; she genuinely liked Tong Ziyan very much.

Tong Ziyan smiled proudly at Ming Weiyi, "Of course."

Having received Tong Ziyan's affirmative reply, Ming Wei smiled even more happily, "Send me your flight information later, and Pei Ming and I will go to the airport to pick you up."

In just a few words, Tong Ziyan had led Ming Weiyi to the door of Pei Ming's room.

Although Tong Ziyan had no idea what was going on between Pei Ming's initial promise to prepare two rooms and his later statement that only one room was needed, she suppressed her gossip and maintained a calm demeanor.

"I don't know what Pei Cheng called Pei Ming to talk about. You should go back to your room and take a hot shower. I'll tell them to talk about it tomorrow."

"Goodnight, sister-in-law." Ming Wei waved obediently to Tong Ziyan.

Good night, get some rest.

After saying that, Tong Ziyan opened the door to Pei Ming's room for Ming Weiyi, and then left with a smile.

As Mingwei entered Pei Ming's room, a faint fragrance wafted into her nostrils. Curious, she looked around. Pei Ming's bedroom wasn't overly decorated, but its simple lines and exquisite details exuded understated luxury.

Before Mingwei could even finish looking at the layout of the bedroom, Pei Ming opened the door and walked in.

"How's the dress your sister-in-law prepared for you?" Pei Ming habitually closed the door.

"They're all beautiful, I love them, but I have to choose one to wear tomorrow, which is a real dilemma." Ming Weiyi hadn't even tried them on yet, but she already felt she couldn't bear to part with any of them.

"We'll talk about tomorrow tomorrow. You're tired today, so rest first," Pei Ming said as he walked towards Ming Weiyi, his tone and attitude very gentle.

As Pei Ming drew closer, and given that they were now alone together in a room, Ming Wei felt inexplicably nervous. "I...I'll go wash my hair and take a shower first..."

Faced with this awkward atmosphere, Ming Wei immediately chose to escape. She didn't even dare to imagine what the room would be like after she and Pei Ming finished washing up.

When they were actually in the same room, Pei Ming felt a little nervous. But more than nervousness, he was worried about whether he could control his desire to get closer to Ming Weiyi.

In another bedroom of the Pei family home, the arrival of Pei Ming and Ming Weiyi undoubtedly became the source of gossip for Pei Cheng and Tong Ziyan.

Compared to the monotonous colors and furnishings in Pei Ming's bedroom, Pei Cheng's bedroom, because it has a female owner, is filled with warm and cozy elements typical of girls.

"Don't you think Weiwei and Pei Ming seem more natural this time?" Tong Ziyan said, putting her hands behind Pei Cheng's neck and then gently hugging him from behind.

Tong Ziyan's fragrant long hair casually brushed against Pei Cheng's cheek, and he gently reached out and placed his hand on Tong Ziyan's body.

"Yes, the last time I saw her, she was quite formal with us, but this time she seemed much more approachable."

"This also shows that Pei Ming has been behaving quite well lately, and Weiwei has gradually accepted him." Tong Ziyan's face showed a very obvious aunt-like smile.

"Thank you for your hard work these past few days because of Pei Ming's engagement." As Pei Ming's older brother, Pei Cheng sincerely appreciated Tong Ziyan's efforts during this time.

“What’s so hard about it? Pei Ming is your younger brother, so I will treat him as my own brother. Besides, I quite like Weiwei as my sister-in-law.”

Hearing Tong Ziyan's comforting words, Pei Cheng gently kissed her soft lips.

Compared to the sweet colors in Pei Cheng's bedroom, Pei Ming's bedroom was much more awkward.

Sitting on Pei Ming's bed, Ming Weiyi's heart was pounding. From what she could see in Pei Ming's bedroom, the only place where a person could sleep was this large and comfortable double bed.

Given Pei Ming's height, the simple sofa by the window simply couldn't support him, and it didn't seem right for him to tidy up and sleep on the floor.

Just as Mingwei was hesitating, Pei Ming pushed open the bathroom door and came out.

This was the first time Pei Ming had ever dressed neatly in his own room after taking a shower.

"Have you decided where I'll sleep tonight?" Pei Ming had already walked to the bedside. He bent down and placed his hands on the edge of the bed, his eyes full of provocation as he looked at Ming Weiyi.

"Where in this bedroom do you think would be a good place for you to sleep?" Ming Wei didn't answer Pei Ming's question proactively; she left the choice to him.

Even though Ming Weiyi was very nervous, she still looked calmly into Pei Ming's eyes.

Pei Ming glanced at the double bed where Ming Wei was sitting, and replied with a smile, "This is my room, so of course this bed is the most suitable for me to sleep in."

Pei Ming deliberately gave this answer to tease Ming Weiyi, knowing in his mind that Ming Weiyi would definitely reject him.
