Rebirth: Growing Up Together

If Xu Cheng was here, she would not dare to do such a thing.

But the strange thing is...

Although I feel tired, I feel happy in being busy, as if I am participating in and integrating into something.

For a moment, the girl seemed to think that she was the mistress of this house.

After cleaning every corner, I searched around and found Xu Cheng's dirty clothes, which were mixed with Xu Cheng's socks and underwear.

The girl couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Why didn't he just wash it off after taking a shower like me?

As luck would have it, he was so fond of cleanliness when he was a child!

The clothes were thrown into the washing machine, and as for the socks and underwear that needed to be washed by hand, the girl blushed and helped him scrub them clean in front of the sink.

"Yue! Yue! So disgusting!"

Not knowing who he was showing it to, Lin Wanzhou made exaggerated gestures of disgust.

She rubbed every corner of the small piece of cloth carefully, washed Xu Cheng's pants, shook them vigorously twice, and hung them on the clothes hanger to dry.

After doing all this, Lin Wanzhou finally had some free time. He picked up the apple on the coffee table and started to take small bites of it.

Really, why would she help him do this?

Wash his underwear...

This is already the second time!

After I finished eating the apple, I heard the washing machine stop turning.

The washing machine was a drum type, so the girl had to bend down to get the clothes, and at this time the snow-white area at her collar was exposed.

Since there was no one at home, she just didn't cover it up.

All the clothes washed were Xu Cheng's dirty clothes. Lin Wanzhou took out a wet gray piece of clothing, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it twice.

Savory.

Already washed.

There is also a hint of Xu Cheng's scent...

Unable to smell it clearly, the girl moved it closer, and the clothing almost rubbed against the tip of her nose.

After rubbing it several times, he finally opened his eyes and spread out his clothes.

"Hey."

Hate.

Why is it his long johns?

He threw it into the basket with disgust as if he had picked up something dirty.

However, for each piece of clothing, the girl would hold it in her palm and sniff it twice.

It seemed as if it had to be confirmed by her before it could be considered clean.

Although the result is always thrown into the basket with disgust, the girl's thoughts still need to be examined.

After all, she closed her eyes and looked very happy, as if she smelled something that fascinated her.

"Meow." The cat squatting behind him was very confused.

My sister is so weird.

This is not dried fish, why are you smelling it so happily?

It doesn’t smell as good as the little earthworms!

"Ding dong, ding dong."

Just as the girl was immersed in it, the doorbell suddenly rang, which scared her so much that she hurriedly threw the clothes in her hands into the basket, and then tried to pretend nothing had happened and went to open the door.

"I'm back." Of course, the person outside the door was Xu Cheng who had just returned from shopping.

The girl pretended to be calm and agreed.

"Oh."

"clothing……"

"I didn't smell your clothes."

"What are you talking about?"

Xu Cheng handed her the coat and said, "Help me hang up the clothes."

Lin Wanzhou took it and hung it on the hanger in the entrance hall, squeezing it together with her coat.

When the young man came in and changed his shoes, Nian Gao jumped on his calves to greet him.

Lin Wanzhou tried hard to control her guilty conscience and asked him.

"Xu Cheng, have you bought it?"

"I've bought it. Take a look and see if it fits you."

The girl took the bag from him, looked down, then remembered something and asked him with some concern.

"Where are the two pieces of yarn?"

"Here it is. It's not lost."

Xu Cheng took it out from his pocket and said, "Don't worry, Lin Wanzhou, I will keep it and won't throw it away casually."

The girl rolled her eyes at him.

"You're a pervert. You want to collect something like this."

"After all, it has special meaning. Of course I have to treasure it. Maybe it is the red thread between you and me."

"Shame on you! Who has anything to do with you..."

The girl murmured shyly with a blushing face, which made Xu Cheng want to hug her and bite her.

"There is no red line. Is there steel bars between us?"

"Nothing! We are innocent!"

Xu Cheng smiled.

"I'm not a pervert. These things are useful if you keep them. If you grow up, you can use them to measure how much you have grown. They are perfect reference objects."

"Tsk, who, who needs to grow up? I think I'm cute and that's fine now. I don't need to grow up at all."

"Uh, I don't think so."

"Who asked you to feel..."

After arguing for a while, Xu Cheng, who was a little tired from walking, lay down on the sofa.

It seems that he is not aware of the small changes around him.

Lin Wanzhou felt as if his heart was being scratched by a cat.

This annoying guy, isn't he very smart? How come he didn't notice it!

Of course, she didn't want his praise, she just wanted to remind him that the room had already been cleaned and there was no need to clean it again.

With this "little thought" in mind, the girl asked tentatively while unpacking the box in her hand.

"Xu Cheng, didn't you feel anything?", with a tone that said, "I don't care that much."

Hearing this, Xu Cheng was stunned for a few seconds.

“…What do you feel?”

He glanced around, as if he had noticed something, and the girl also looked happy.

Humph.

Finally found it.

Just praise them casually... As for rewarding them with little strawberries, that's not necessary!

"I see."

Xu Cheng stood up suddenly, "Lin Wanzhou, are you hiding a man behind my back?"

"???"

"Damn it! Where is it? In the closet or behind the curtain?"

"Get lost!"

The girl was so angry that she didn't care what was in her hand and threw the small piece of cloth she had just taken out at Xu Cheng.

She is such a chaste girl that she usually doesn't have more than three sentences of conversation with other boys.

He actually said she was hiding a man? !

She couldn't possibly hide him even if he was hiding a man!

"Ouch, what did you lose?" Xu Cheng said while fiddling with the covering on his face.

The girl felt extremely embarrassed when she thought that this was what he was going to wear soon. Before Xu Cheng could pull it off, she quickly snatched it back and held it in her hand.

Although it was hidden well, Xu Cheng still saw a corner of it.

He said helplessly.

"...Don't throw this kind of stuff around."

"Who asked you to teach me?"

The girl glared at him with red cheeks.

Humph.

The house was cleaned in vain!

Before leaving, she must make a mess here!

Well, littered with dirty clothes, toilet paper and plastic.

While the girl was sulking, Xu Cheng quickly reacted and looked around. He found that things were indeed a little different from before he left.

"Why does the house feel a lot cleaner? Have you cleaned up at home?"

"..."

The girl looked like she didn't care, but she wasn't so calm in her heart.

She couldn't tell what was wrong with her. She was angry because of that annoying guy just now, but now she was very happy because of him.

My mood always fluctuates because of him...

It was lifted up high at once, and then dropped down heavily at once, as if I were dying.

"You really cleaned it, Lin Wanzhou. It's so clean!"

The girl couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

She pouted her lips and tried hard not to let Xu Cheng see how happy she was.

"Let me see, the table has been wiped, the floor has been mopped... have my pants been washed too?"

"Humph."

The girl couldn't hold it in any longer, so she mumbled, "I have nothing to do anyway, so I just cleaned it up, well... just as an exercise."

"You are so virtuous."

"Don't use such words to talk about me casually~"

In the tone of Lin Wanzhou's voice, one could already hear the uncontrollable joy in her voice.

"I'll tell my mother when she comes back. She'll definitely be happy too."

"Oh, I'm going to kill you. Don't tell Auntie. What if she misunderstands you?"

Lin Wanzhou pushed Xu Cheng anxiously, and the small piece of cloth in his hand was exposed in front of the two of them.

"Uh...does the style I bought look good?"
