Chapter 23 Mingmei's Request

Chapter 23 Mingmei's Request
Dinner ended in this weird atmosphere. But they didn't go back to their dormitories. Instead, they followed me to my room. That was the agreement I made with Ling this morning.

dong dong dong.

I knocked on the door of my room. Before leaving today, I left my ID card to Jingliu and asked her to help me clean the room. I only took the elevator card with me.

Soon, the door opened. But the sight of Jingliu opening the door almost made me swallow my tongue.

Don't worry. This time Jingliu opened the door with her clothes on. However, she was dressed like a maid and looked very attractive.

"Sister Jingliu. You..." I was so surprised that I was speechless.

When Jingliu saw the three people behind me, he put away his smile and said to me gently with a respectful smile, "Brother Bing, welcome back."

I understood and nodded to her. Then I walked into the room with the three people behind me.

"Bing, your room is so beautiful. Wow, there's a piano and lavender~" Ling's eyes were full of stars. She kept talking beside me.

"It's just like a royal suite." Taiyi was also fascinated by it. Mary echoed from the side.

"Ah, Jingliu designed it for me." Looking at everything in the room, I was very satisfied. On a table next to the piano, there was a bunch of lavender. It was obviously sent by Sister Bei. In this way, even if you don't use lavender perfume, the whole room will be filled with the faint scent of lavender.

"Hey, Bing. Can I move in and live with you? Your room is so beautiful." Ling looked at me with star-like eyes.

"Uh. I don't care. There's still a guest room. But is that okay with you?" A drop of cold sweat dripped from my head.

"Yeah." Ling said excitedly.

"Well, Ling, I'm afraid that's not possible. Because we have to take roll call every night. Have you forgotten?" Mary said to Ling with some concern.

"Eh? Yeah. I forgot about it." Ling frowned unhappily.

"Haha. It's okay. When you have your own code name, you will have a room like this. At the same time, I welcome you to come here anytime." I smiled. "Jingliu. Prepare some juice for everyone." I turned around and smiled at Jingliu behind me.

"Yes, Brother Bing." Jingliu bowed slightly to me and left the room. There was only a water dispenser in my room. But there were juicers, microwaves, refrigerators, etc. in Jingliu's room.

Soon, Jingliu came in with a tray of drinks and a tray of snacks.

Ling and the others were enjoying their desserts while admiring my room. While they were looking at the room, I walked over to Jingliu and asked her softly.

"Sister Jingliu. Why are you suddenly dressed like this? I'm scared to death."

"Hehe. Don't you want me to wear a maid outfit? So I wore it." Jingliu winked at me playfully.

"Hehe. Sister Jingliu, you are so awesome. It made me so proud when you called me Brother Bing." I grinned, showing my little white teeth.

"Of course. Do you think my training was in vain? Besides, you are my boss after all."

"Hehe. Sister Jingliu is the best. Then you can wear this every day from now on." I smiled mischievously.

"Sure. As long as your girlfriend doesn't mind, it doesn't matter if I wear a swimsuit every day." Jingliu also smiled at me mischievously.

"Uh... hehe... no need." I smiled helplessly. Every time she threatened me with Shiho, I had no way to deal with it. Alas... I have lived for more than 20 years in two lives. I am not afraid of anything except Shiho. My heart beats when she laughs. I feel distressed when she cries. I feel upset when she is unhappy. I feel anxious when she is sick. It can be said that her every move affects me and moves my heart. More than ten years later, Ling once said this about me.

"The most powerful person I have ever seen in this world is not Bing, but Shirley. Because as long as Shirley is hurt a little bit, Bing will go crazy and take revenge on the person who hurt Shirley. For Bing, Shirley is his Achilles' heel. Anyone who touches her will die." Of course, this happened a long time later.

dong dong dong.

Just when I was chatting with Jingliu, there was a knock on the door. I suddenly remembered that Mingmei also said she would come to see me today. I actually forgot.

As expected, Jingliu went to open the door, and Mingmei was standing at the door.

"Excuse me, is Brother Bing here?" Mingmei had met Jingliu before, but they were still very polite to each other.

"Yes, he's here. Please come in." Jingliu moved to the side and let Mingmei in.

When Mingmei came in and saw the room full of people, she was also slightly stunned. She turned to me and asked, "Sorry. I didn't know you had other guests today. I'll come back a little later." Mingmei said, and then she was about to leave after greeting me. But I stopped her.

"Ah, Mingmei-nee. I'm sorry. I was too busy today and didn't have time to come over. If it's convenient, let's talk somewhere else."

"Is this okay?" Mingmei said with some concern.

"It's okay, Jingliu. Take care of them. I'll be back soon." I turned to Jingliu and said.

"Yes, Brother Bing. Please take care." Jingliu nodded understandingly and bowed to me.

"Brother Bing. If you don't mind, come to my room."

"No way, Sister Mingmei, you are too polite. Let's go." I put my hands behind my head and followed Mingmei out of the room.

Mingmei's room is opposite to Shizuru's room. Just like my room and Shiho's room. Mingmei's room and Shizuru's room have the same layout. I walked in. The light yellow theme makes people look warm.

"By the way, Sister Mingmei, where is Shiho?" "Ah. She just took the sixth grade cultural exam today. And she is resting in her room because of the injury on her foot."

"Oh, I see. Well, Sister Mingmei, do you have anything to tell me?" I said straight to the point.

"Well, it's actually like this." Mingmei sat on the chair and said to me slowly. "To be honest, I don't have the right to ask you for this. But for my sister, I have no choice but to come to you."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"Actually, it's Shiho. If Shiho passes this exam, she will start studying middle school knowledge. As her older sister, I don't have the same learning talent as her. I am a peripheral member. In addition, the subjects that Shiho is studying now are beyond my ability to catch up, even though I am six years older than Shiho. But..." Mingmei said with an embarrassed expression.

"So, sister Mingmei, what do you need me to do?" I couldn't bear to see Mingmei's expression. This girl always cared about her sister. I couldn't bear to refuse her request.

"No, Bing, you are too kind. I am not asking you to do anything. I am asking you to take good care of my sister."

"Eh?"

"If Shiho passes the exam, I will have to leave her and go back to work outside. Then I won't be able to be with Shiho. So I ask you to take good care of Shiho for me." As she said this, tears flashed in Akemi's eyes.

"Oh, sister Mingmei, please don't cry." I watched Mingmei cry. I was also panicking. "Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?" I asked.

"Do you remember that the organization sent me out yesterday to get some information?" Mingmei wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Yeah. That was the day Shiho was injured, right?"

"Yes. After getting the information back, the organization found some traitors from the information. But it's hard to confirm who they are. And this time I'm going back to the periphery to find those traitors and then come back to report. After that, I will stay in the periphery to study."

"I see." I held my chin in thought.

"Bing. I wonder if you can agree to my request?" Mingmei asked worriedly as she saw me thinking about it.

"Before that, I want to ask, Sister Mingmei. We have only known each other for three days. Why do you trust me so much?" I looked up at Mingmei.

"I..." Mingmei lowered her head and said with a dim look in her eyes. "I don't know either. I don't know why either." Mingmei raised her head again and looked at me excitedly. "But. I just believe in you unconditionally. Although we have only known each other for three days. But I have seen everything you say and do. If it is you, I believe you can definitely protect Shiho!"

. . . . . .

"Haha." After a short silence, I smiled with a relaxed look on my face. "Since Sister Mingmei trusts me so much, I can't let you down. Well, leave Shiho to me without any worries. But I also have a condition." I raised a finger and said to her.

"Hmm? You tell me. I will do whatever I can. Including if you want my body, I can give it to you." Mingmei said excitedly.

"Uh..." My eyes turned into small eyes. Mingmei really gave up everything for Shiho. Where can I find a sister like this? "Well, Mingmei sister. Don't be so excited. I didn't mean that." I blushed and waved my hand to her.

"What I want to say is that during the time you are out there, no matter what, you must stay alive well. I don't want to hear any news that you are in any danger out there. This is my only condition. Can you agree?" I smiled at Mingmei.

"Bing. You..." Mingmei's eyes sparkled with tears again.

"Ah. Don't cry, Sister Mingmei. I feel very embarrassed when you do this." I said, scratching my head with an embarrassed look.

"Thank you, Bing. Thank you so much." Mingmei hugged me and cried.

"Okay, okay. Don't cry, Mingmei. If Shiho sees me and thinks I'm bullying you, I'll be screwed." I gently stroked Mingmei's back, hoping that this would stop her from crying.

"Sister..." A soft voice sounded at the door.

God! ! Damn my bad mouth. Whatever I say comes true!
Mingmei was crying on my shoulder. We started chatting as soon as we entered the room, so I even forgot to close the door.

"Sister, why are you crying? Did Bing bully you?" Shiho asked in confusion. Because her foot was still injured, she was limping when she came in.

"Ah. Shiho." Akemi quickly pushed me away. Then she wiped the tears from her face. "No. Bing didn't bully me."

"Obviously. Sister, you don't have to tell me, I saw it all. Sister was crying just now, I saw it clearly!" Shiho turned around and looked at me coldly. "Bing! Why are you bullying my sister!"

"Huh? I didn't bully Sister Mingmei." I quickly shook my head in defense.

"Then why is my sister crying?"

"That's because... because..." At this moment, I didn't know how to explain to Shiho.

"Hmph. If you don't tell me, that's bullying!" Shiho walked towards me angrily. Maybe because of her anger, she forgot that her foot was still injured. "I warn you, ice... you... ah!" Shiho fell to the ground because of her foot injury just after taking a step. Fortunately, Mingmei's room was carpeted. But this fall was not something that the petite Shiho could bear. Look. The wound that was just bandaged yesterday was now bleeding red again.

"Shiho! Are you okay?" I ran towards her quickly and reached out to help her up.

"Don't touch me!" Shiho shook my hand away fiercely.

"Sister Mingmei." I stared at Mingmei with my big watery eyes, hoping that Mingmei would help me out.

Mingmei burst out laughing. Then she helped Shiho up. After helping her to the bed, she began to explain to me. I stood aside and listened quietly.

So... like this... and then... that's it...

After about 10 minutes of explanation, Shiho finally forgave me. (Huh? Why did you say forgive? It was obviously not wrong..) Of course. Mingmei made up a story to tell Shiho. She couldn't have told her about our conversation just now. Otherwise, it would be Shiho's turn to cry again.
