This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 48

After parting with Yi Ming, Jiang Wei went downstairs to wait in her dorm building for a while. She saw Xiao Liang running towards her like a child, and she smiled slightly, saying softly, "Slow down."

Although Xiao Liang had moved out of the dorm, her relationship with Jiang Wei remained close.

The two often sat together during classes, and whenever Yi Ming was busy, Xiao Liang was almost always by Jiang Wei's side.

As Xiao Liang put it, "I'm your rock-solid 'friendship backup.' If your Yi Ming ever abandons you, call me immediately. Our adorable little Jiang Wei will be under my protection."

Whenever she heard Xiao Liang say this, Jiang Wei couldn't help but laugh softly.

Xiao Liang was petite with a round face, and her absentminded personality made her seem like a scatterbrain. If she were truly tasked with protecting Jiang Wei, who knows how many directions she would veer off course.

However, the thought of having someone other than Yi Ming who cared for her like family and accompanied her warmed Jiang Wei's heart.

Two people without blood relations could only be connected by a subtle bond, whether a bond of love or friendship. Their kindness always felt more precious and worth cherishing.

"Are you feeling better?"

Jiang Wei patted her sling bag and handed Xiao Liang the norfloxacin capsules she had brought from home.

Earlier that morning, Jiang Wei received a message from Xiao Liang saying she might not be able to attend the opening ceremony. She had started having stomach problems early in the morning, running to the bathroom four times already with no end in sight... she feared she might have to go again soon.

During the competition, while watching Yi Ming on the field, Jiang Wei was also worrying about Xiao Liang's condition.

As soon as the competition ended and she parted ways with Yi Ming, Jiang Wei hurried to the dorm building with medicine to see Xiao Liang.

"Much better, it stopped after six times," Xiao Liang sniffled, smiling foolishly as she hugged Jiang Wei's shoulders. "I saw the campus group blowing up, your Yi Ming was so dashing! That bold and stylish look... no wonder you've been pining for him, hehehe..."

With that smile, Jiang Wei felt like Xiao Liang was the big bad wolf pining for the little lamb...

Jiang Wei smiled and tapped Xiao Liang's forehead. "There's a healthy cycling tour around the city later. How are you feeling? Want to join?"

"No, no," Xiao Liang waved her hands frantically, her face written with "terror."

"What if I have another episode halfway through and there's no bathroom? Oh no, oh no, I haven't even had a boyfriend yet. I can't ruin my reputation like that..."

Xiao Liang exaggeratedly flailed her arms and legs while standing in place.

Watching her, Jiang Wei suddenly felt it would be nice if all girls could live as simply as Xiao Liang.

Uncomplicated, straightforward, with her own small, warm world, unburdened by too many responsibilities or worries.

"Don't worry, I'll introduce someone to you," Jiang Wei smiled reassuringly.

"I don't need you to introduce anyone. You should focus on getting your dashing Yi Ming," Xiao Liang retorted. "I've already prepared the bride price, so don't let me waste that money..."

"Oh, really?" Jiang Wei teased her. "How much have you prepared? If it's too little, I won't accept."

Hearing this, Xiao Liang burst into joyful laughter. She clung to Jiang Wei's arm and swayed, "Twenty yuan is enough, right? Enough to buy a few Haagen-Dazs black pineapple ice cream bars. Isn't that generous of me?"

The two girls laughed happily downstairs in the dorm building. If one could have a few good friends in life to share such carefree laughter, wouldn't that be a blessing?
