Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Smitten and Bloody-Faced Shen Weiyi had eaten the midnight snack Shen Juanzhi brought for her in the car and went straight to her room when she got home. She set down her school bag, preparing to wash up, when a message suddenly popped up on WeChat: "Are you available? Little Bao wants to talk to you." Shen Weiyi glanced at the time—it was almost ten o’clock. Why hadn’t Little Douding gone to bed so late? Automatically, Shen Weiyi sent a video call. The first thing that appeared on the phone screen was a face with sharp features, probably just after drying his hair, looking quite fluffy. With the indoor lighting, he looked softer than the last time she had met him. "Wait a moment," he said. Before Shen Weiyi had a chance to look closely, the phone screen turned, and soon, a little head wearing a tiger onesie replaced it. Adorable to death. "Sister," the little guy said as soon as he saw her, straightening his small body and staring at the screen with his big, sparkling eyes. Shen Weiyi’s heart involuntarily softened, and she teased him with a smile, "Little Bao, why are you still up so late? Kids who go to bed late turn into panda babies, you know." "Not a panda, I’m a little brain tiger, roar~~~" Little Bao extended his little short arms beside his face, mimicking the tiger’s roar, his voice sweet and irresistibly cute. Shen Weiyi’s heart melted, dying to ruffle his little head. Unfortunately, separated by the screen, she could only wish. "Sister, do you miss Little Bao?" After imitating the little tiger, Little Douding sat obediently in front of the phone, his little face almost pressing against the lens, eagerly looking at Shen Weiyi. Shen Weiyi smiled and said, "Yes, Sister misses Little Bao." Little Douding said seriously, "Little Bao misses you too, super much. Sister, can Little Bao come to find you?" "Sister has to go to school, how about Little Bao come to visit Sister during her holiday?" Perhaps because of the night, Shen Weiyi’s voice sounded exceptionally gentle and patient. "When does Sister have her holiday?" Little Douding pressed. Shen Weiyi replied, "Hmm, Sister will have a holiday when Brother does." Little Douding turned his head and looked at the person next to him, "Brother, when do you have holidays?" "It’s time for you to sleep," came a deep voice from the video. "But I still want to talk to Sister," Little Douding immediately frowned. Sheng Ting said, "Sister needs to sleep too, and you’ll disturb her rest. Sister won’t like you for that!" Little Douding’s head whipped back, "Little Bao will be good, Sister won’t dislike Little Bao." "Sister won’t dislike Little Bao!" Little Douding puffed up and said, "Dingding is lying, Sister said she won’t dislike Little Bao." After that, he looked pitifully at Shen Weiyi, "Can Little Bao still video-call Sister?" "Of course, but not so late. Next time Little Bao misses Sister, you can leave a message for her. Sister will reply to Little Bao as soon as possible." "Little Bao will remember, Sister, good night!" "Good night!" After ending the video call, Shen Weiyi got up to take a shower. After the shower, she found an additional WeChat message. "Sorry for the little guy insisting on finding you and disturbing your rest." "It’s okay, Little Bao is very cute, seeing him makes me very happy." "Get some rest, good night!" "Good night!" Shen Weiyi put down her phone, thinking of the adorable little guy and couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Then she went to the desk, opened her school bag, took out her textbooks, and adjusted the desk lamp to the right brightness.
