Before I knew it it was eleven o'clock in the evening.

The time in Japan is one hour faster than in China, and Asaba Li Xiang, who is used to sleeping late, is still in good spirits.

Asaba Kazuo is already yawning a lot, it's hard to stay up at night when you're older, and it's almost time to rest at eleven o'clock, unlike when you were younger, when you could fight all night and still be in good spirits the next day.

"Li Xiang, we're resting, you've been running around all day, rest early too."

With that, Asaba Kazuo was about to go back to his room with Miori when Li Xiang came and snatched his wife away from him.

"Hehehe, daddy will sleep by himself tonight and you'll sleep with me, mummy, I want to cuddle with you!"

"Eh?"

So Li Xiang took Miori to her room and went to sleep, leaving Asaba Kazuo alone, feeling more and more that it was better to marry her daughter off sooner rather than later.

Mother and daughter have a strong bond and have always got on like sisters. Having not seen her for so long, Li Xiang will of course be sleeping with her mother tonight.

Her bed is all made up, Li Xiang sleeps in it and her mother sleeps outside.

When she saw Li Xiang taking a jumper out of her suitcase, Miori wondered, "Why does Li Xiang have a boy's jumper?"

Li Xiang blushed slightly and nuzzled the jumper between her nose and whispered, "Yes, it's Shen Yu's. I brought it back by accident."

Miori didn't suspect anything, after all, her daughter was innocent and had no strange habits.

She yawned and lay down on the bed, pulling the covers up over her. Li Xiang also got under the covers, mother and daughter under the same quilt, and she wriggled like a caterpillar to Miori before wrapping her in her arms and resting her head on her chest, as she had done when she was a child.

Miori also hugged her gently and stroked her hair gently.

Time really does go by in a blink of an eye and Li Xiang is now a big girl and even has a boy she likes.

Before having a child, a woman always feels like a teenager, and Miori is no exception. When Li Xiang was born, she suddenly felt like a different person and became a mother, a feeling that is hard to explain.

Maybe someday in the future, Li Xiang will get married and have her own children, which Miori always finds unbelievable.

Li Xiang, who is notorious for sleeping, touches Miori's waist and then her own, marvelling at the fact that her mother has not put on any weight, before her hand moves up and scratches playfully.

"Don't you have one yourself?"

"Mum, do you think all boys like the big ones?"

"Well, they're all bad."

Mother and daughter turned off the light and lay together in bed whispering.

When he heard Miori's comment, Li Xiang got nervous, remembering Shen Yu's strange reaction yesterday, if, if another pretty girl with a good body seduced him, wouldn't it be the end!

Probably sensing Li Xiang's concerns, Miori reassured her, "Li Xiang isn't too young, and she'll grow up after she gets married."

"Really?"

"Well, don't talk about it, you'll find out later."

Miori is a little sleepy, but Li Xiang is still in high spirits and chatters away to her.

There are many things that cannot be said over the phone, and now that it is night and the lights are off, she can speak more naturally when mother and daughter talk.

"Look, here's a picture of him, okay? Hee hee, he's grown so tall! He's much taller than his dad! Shen Yu is a man with a goal, he wants to set up a high-tech company that makes artificial intelligence, you won't understand it, and neither do I. He's so good!"

"I sprained my foot last time and I didn't tell you and dad because I was afraid you'd be worried. I could see the emotion in his eyes, he was really worried about me, and when I was on his back, it was so safe and comfortable, it was like a dream, my mind was blank, all I could think about was him"

"You know what he gave me for Christmas, an oversized furry bear with his jumper on, haha what kind of person gives a girl her own jumper, isn't he silly?"

Li Xiang spends almost the entire conversation talking about Shen Yu, and when his name is mentioned, she smiles and never tires of telling Miori how good he is.

Miori listened attentively, thinking that her daughter had never been in love before and was therefore so devoted when there was a boy she could like, but gradually she realised that Li Xiang was not impulsive but had really fallen in love with the boy named Shen Yu. From Miori's point of view, Shen Yu is also a perfect match.

People with similar personalities are good for friends, and people with complementary personalities are good for a lifetime together.

This is a lesson Miori has learned over the course of half her life. With a personality like Li Xiang's, it would be impractical to expect her to become a strong woman, and it would be a good idea to have Shen Yu to complement her personality.

This is a very sensible and decent guy, he won't lie to Li Xiang, he won't bully her, he won't abandon her, and Shen Yu is a treasure compared to the smooth talkers.

The mother-in-law chooses her son-in-law based on his character, his ability and her daughter's feelings for him.

"But Shen Yu is so annoying he doesn't even like me! Well."

Li Xiang talks about how distressed she is, hugging and rubbing her mother like a kitten.

Miori pressed her restless hands and legs and said with amusement, " Li Xiang should not be in a hurry, he should also have never been in love, boys are naturally slower than girls when it comes to things like relationships, a rational person like him may think more about things, but he will surely find you good in time."

"The more you do that, the less you can push too hard, give him a little time and he will slowly convince himself."

Miori said, "Believe it or not, this time you've been away from him for so long, he must be very uncomfortable, just this time to give him some time alone to sort out his feelings, and when Li Xiang goes back, he might find that he seems a little more enlightened."

"Really?" Li Xiang blinked her big eyes and looked a little excited.

"And have you noticed anything different about him since you've been back?"

"Well there seems to be!"

Li Xiang thought about it and said, "Shen Yu never used to talk to me on WeChat, not even by voice or video, but after I came back, he was willing to talk to me by voice and video! And, he even took the initiative to contact me!"

"How did he contact you?"

"Just ask me which rag is for the kitchen counter and where I put the rubbish bags."

"And after the question?"

"Just ask me if I've eaten yet!"

Miori mulled it over for a moment and said, "Then he should just find an excuse to talk to you, he wants to talk to you but won't initiate contact, just so he can use these excuses to contact you openly."

"So that's it! So that's how it is!"

Li Xiang's confidence was boosted and he hugged and rubbed Miori with great joy.

When she saw her daughter giving for nothing, Miori was helpless. She was reminded of herself when she was young, but it is not wrong to give for nothing.

Miori thought about it and decided to give her daughter another lesson, a lesson she had never had before.

"Li Xiang has already had a physical hygiene class, right?"

When she heard her mother ask, Li Xiang froze, then blushed with embarrassment and whispered, "Well, that's perverted! I remember when the teacher was lecturing and all the boys in the class were laughing and we were so ashamed!"

Miori turned to her and said in a serious voice, "But when you're with a boy and a girl, there will be times when you can't help it, especially if you like him a lot."

Miori whispers against Li Xiang's ear, whispering more and more.

Li Xiang listened, her eyes widening and her face getting hotter and hotter, shy and curious

Miori was very detailed, she had been there before, and her hands were like magic, telling her in detail where she could not be touched by him.

"No listen! No listening!"

Li Xiang was blushing, covering her eyes with her small hands and rolling around in bed in shame, she didn't want to hear any of it, but she heard every word clearly and remembered it well

"What a pervert! I don't like Shen Yu anymore! Boys are so perverted!"

Li Xiang woos, shrinks under the covers and never comes out again.

"Silly boy, you'll see later."

Miori is not going to say anything else, she has already taught them everything, so let them figure out how to fall in love with young people.

The room grows quiet and, listening to his mother's even breathing, Li Xiang sulks under the covers for a long time before peeking his little head out.

All she could think about was the strange scenes her mother had just painted for her, so much so that the blush on her face never receded.

She grabbed Shen Yu's jumper and hugged it, sniffing him lightly as her little hand felt its way to the side of the bed again, took her phone over and sent Shen Yu a message.

After sending it, she grunted and went to sleep with her little blanket on.

I had a dream at night and it was full of strange things

It was eleven o'clock when Shen Yu came out of the shower, blow-dried his hair and returned to his room, intending to have an early night, when he saw a message from Li Xiang.

Luo Yan: "Pervert! Shen Yu is the most perverted!"

Sinking Fish: "????"

Not really! I just used your bathtub to take a bath. What makes you a pervert again?

Wait, how did you know I was using your bath?

"Inexplicable."

Shen Yu muttered, shutting his phone and lying back under the covers, grabbing his scarf in his hands out of habit.

The first night she was not at home, the scent of the scarf seemed even more dynamic.
