Chapter 330: Actually, It’s No Problem
<divclass="tt-title">Not long after sending the workers away.
The three little ones happily trotted back inside, still clutching the ingredients for dinner.
Dragon Brother (Male) glanced deliberately at Hu Yu Ying’s feet.
No surprises—her shoes were soaked through with water.
He took a deep breath, deciding not to tell her. Little Girl (Female) is on her period and still going stomping through puddles? She must be miserable enough.
Thinking of that, he deliberately averted his gaze.
But after two seconds, he sighed helplessly and said to Little Girl, “Go change your shoes first.”
Hu Yu Ying looked down at her soggy shoes and then offered a sweet smile to Big Brother Long.
Look at Little Girl now—she’s getting sneaky.
Knowing her shoes got wet, Big Brother Long would definitely scold her.
So she took the initiative to act cute, giving him that coquettish smile, so even if he wanted to nag, with her adorable expression, he’d probably let it slide.
Seeing Little Girl like this.
Others might not notice, but Dragon Brother (Male) is totally under her spell.
When she smiles at him, his heart instantly melts. Words he’s about to say get caught in his throat.
Then he turned to Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning. “There are slippers inside. You don’t mind wearing them first, right?”
Both little ones had also soaked their shoes but, upon seeing Dragon Brother Long prepared to scold Hu Yu Ying, instinctively switched to placing their feet close together—as if that would hide them from his gaze.
Now that Dragon Brother Long called them out, they quickly followed Hu Yu Ying into the house.
Watching their retreating backs, Dragon Brother (Male) suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion—like raising daughters.
He picked up the shopping ingredients and started sorting and washing them.
Rinsing the vegetables, the three little ones came out of their room.
Hu Yu Ying’s clothes had mostly been brought here, so she had spare shoes.
But Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning didn’t.
One was wearing Hu Yu Ying’s slippers, the other Dragon Brother Long’s.
Especially Lin Wan Ning—her tiny feet stuffed into Big Brother Long’s enormous slippers, looking delicate and adorable, wobbly and a little clumsy as she walked, utterly cute.
It’s no longer summer; the weather is becoming colder. Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning wearing slippers still felt chilly, not to mention they had just recently stepped in water barefoot.
Seeing Lin Wan Ning and Li Qing Xue like that, Dragon Brother (Male) forced a tense smile and said, “Now you’re feeling cold, huh? But I didn’t see you not playing water earlier.”
The three little ones looked at each other, then obediently listened to Dragon Brother (Male)’s teasing.
Even the most lively Li Qing Xue was the same.
In front of him, they all looked like little girls who had done something wrong.
Watching Lin Wan Ning’s tender, red-tipped toes fiddling with her shoes, she suddenly got up and started a fire.
Then she looked up without raising her head and said, “What are you hesitating for? Waiting for me to bring over the stool?”
Hearing this, the three little ones exchanged smiles and carried small stools over to Dragon Brother (Male).
The two barefooted ones even put their tiny feet close to the burning firewood.
Instantly, their faces lit up with satisfaction.
The three little ones sat by the fire, warming themselves happily.
Dragon Brother (Male) got up and went into the room, fetching their shoes and placing them aside to dry.
Seeing his actions, Li Qing Xue envyingly looked at Hu Yu Ying. “Your Big Brother Long really knows how to care.”
Hu Yu Ying’s beautiful eyes sparkled with affection, boldly no longer afraid of being teased by Li Qing Xue. “He’s the best. I’m so lucky.”
Hearing this, Lin Wan Ning softly whispered in her heart: “Yes, he’s really good… I-I guess I’m a little lucky too…”
“A tiny bit of luck.”
“Just hope that this little bit of luck lasts a long, long time…”
Today’s dinner is hotpot. The colder the weather, the more it feels like the best thing. Especially since it’s an outdoor hotpot.
Actually, Little Girl (Female) also wants to cook at home—make some simple dishes, so it can feel more like a home here. But current conditions don’t permit it.
After finishing dinner, night had fallen, and the sky darkened. The night felt longer.
Everyone strolled to digest their food and headed toward the subway entrance.
Dragon Brother (Male) glanced at his phone then turned to Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning. “Sleep well tonight. Come before noon tomorrow.”
Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning nodded, though they didn’t quite understand why, they just felt it was right to come.
Mainly, because Dragon Brother (Male)’s place was conveniently close—reachable by subway from both T University and A University, not too complicated.
Lin Wan Ning turned to Hu Yu Ying and Dragon Brother (Male). “Alright, go home now. No need to see us off. Just cross the street, and that’s the subway entrance.”
Dragon Brother (Male) and Hu Yu Ying didn’t insist, knowing they’d meet again tomorrow.
They watched Hu Yu Ying and Dragon Brother (Male) walk away.
The two smaller ones started crossing the street.
Walking along the road, Li Qing Xue looked at Lin Wan Ning with curiosity. “Why does Dragon Brother Long want us to come tomorrow?”
Lin Wan Ning thought back to what Dragon Brother (Male) had said earlier.
After a moment of contemplation, she said, “Probably because the winter clothes are being shipped back. Big Brother wants us to try them on.”
Hearing that, Li Qing Xue couldn’t help but laugh and looked up at the night sky. “Ever since I met Dragon Brother Long, it feels like I’ve been constantly under his care.”

“I’ve never had my parents buy me so many clothes all at once…”
“He’s always doing things without us realizing it—so good at giving a sense of security. Hu Yu Ying was right—he’s the best person in the world…”
……
On the other side.
Hmph, now that Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning are gone.
Dragon Brother (Male) locked the door silently, then pulled Little Girl (Female) back to the room without a word.
The once somewhat shabby room, ever since Hu Yu Ying moved in, had been gradually decorated with more and more things.
Now, it looked quite nice.
He pushed Little Girl down onto the bed.
Hu Yu Ying’s face blushed with embarrassment. “Big Brother Long really seems like a starving ghost. But I guess I understand—I’ve been so excited that I couldn’t help myself many times.”
She lied down, but after a moment, when she didn’t feel Big Brother Long pressing down, she lifted her head to look around.
And saw him walking out again.
When he returned, he was holding a basin.
Steam billowed from the hot water, and Hu Yu Ying covered her face in shame—so embarrassed. She’d been imagining Big Brother Long as way too ravenous.
Suddenly, her tiny foot was grasped.
The tactile sensation made her flinch slightly.
She also heard Big Brother Long’s helpless voice: “Look at your cold little foot. I told you not to play with water, but you didn’t listen. If you don’t take care of your health, you might not be able to walk later…”
His hand kneaded her foot gently, warming it up.
Knowing that Big Brother Long was worried about her made Hu Yu Ying’s heart flutter.
She shyly blushed and whispered, “My period already ended today. Actually, it’s no problem…”
“Hmm?”
