Zhou Weiqi was a night owl. He was playing a game on a console when he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door and saw that it was Lu Xingzhi, he chuckled and let the man into the house.
As he looked toward Jiang Yao's room, he shouted, "Jiang Yao! Jiang Yao! Third Brother is here!"
The lights in Jiang Yao's room were on, so she was not asleep yet. When she heard Zhou Weiqi's voice, she jumped out of bed in great surprise and ran to the living room. She saw Lu Xingzhi take off his military coat in the living room; she ran to hug him.
"Back off!" Lu Xingzhi pulled away before he pushed Jiang Yao back. "I just came in, and my body is icy. I'll hug you later."
As he spoke, Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao's feet and cursed in a low voice, "Are you dumb? How many times have I told you to wear socks and slippers, and you're still walking barefoot? Go back inside and put on your socks or slippers!"
"Why are you so fierce?" Jiang Yao pouted as she looked at her feet. After her shower, she did not remember to put on her socks; she had gone to bed directly after that. After Lu Xingzhi scolded her, she had no choice but to drag herself back to the bedroom.
Lu Xingzhi was three steps behind her. After she had entered the room, he was about to follow suit. However, he did not expect Jiang Yao would turn around and push him out the door without a single word. Then, she locked the door from the inside.
Zhou Weiqi was amused when he saw that. "Third Brother, you've angered Jiang Yao. You can sleep in the other guest room tonight."
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words. After all, he was single, but they wanted to cuddle in front of him. That would hurt his heart significantly.
