My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 18: Indeed, Having a Wife Makes a Difference

"Wow, woo—"

Early in the morning, Xu Jiayan was woken up by an annoying bout of crying.

The crying continued for a long time without any signs of stopping, prompting Xu Jiayan to rise from bed with a darkened expression.

At the door, he encountered Xu Xiao’er, who was rubbing his eyes and running out in underwear imprinted with a Crayon Shin-chan bare butt design.

"Brother?" The latter ran so hastily that he almost collided with Xu Jiayan.

Xu Jiayan glanced at his eye-catching shorts, lifted him by the collar to move him aside, and then pushed open the room door next door.

To facilitate bonding between the young lady and the two mischievous boys of the house, Lin Wan had specifically arranged for the young girl’s room to be next to the brothers’ rooms last night.

Xu Jiayan originally didn’t mind—as long as the newcomer wasn’t in his room, any other room arrangement in the house was fine by him.

However, the reality proved that where the newcomer was, peace was nowhere to be found.

Whether it was years ago or years in the future, nothing changed.

Though filled with anger, his mood softened upon seeing a face so swollen it was unrecognizable.

In the middle of the white comforter, the young girl wearing a pink pajama had her originally tender face now covered with dense, red bumps, presenting a shocking sight.

"Good heavens!"

Xu Xiao’er, who followed behind, was startled by her appearance, took a step back, and cried out while half-covering his eyes: "Who are you? Are you a human or a ghost?"

The little person on the bed froze for a moment, then, watching Xu Jiayan with tearful red eyes, burst into even louder crying.

"Stop fooling around!" Xu Jiayan turned around and gave the troublemaker a warning glare.

The latter stuck out his tongue and shrank behind Xu Jiayan, peeking at the person on the bed again and saying, "Brother, was she bitten by hundreds of mosquitoes? Since when do we have so many mosquitoes at home?"

"Shut up!" Xu Jiayan glared at him, then walked towards the bed.

"Brother Yan, Yuanyuan’s face hurts so much!" Seeing Xu Jiayan approaching, the young girl managed to stifle her sobs and spoke with a sobbing voice. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

As Xu Jiayan got closer, he could see the bumps on her face even more clearly, and he didn’t know what to say.

Just then, hearing the commotion and hastily arriving, Lin Wan, upon seeing the girl’s face, couldn’t help but exclaim: "My goodness, what happened? How did this happen?"

"Aunt Wan!" The young girl pouted, tears falling again.

She cried with a mix of grievance and sadness.

Lin Wan felt extremely heartbroken and quickly came forward to hold the girl and comforted her: "Yuanyuan, don’t be afraid, Aunt Wan will call the doctor right away, it’ll be alright after we see the doctor."

"Aunt Wan, is Yuanyuan’s face ruined? Will it stay ugly forever?" It turns out that even young girls naturally care deeply about beauty.

"No, not at all! Our Yuanyuan is still as pretty as before," Lin Wan hastily comforted her.

"Really?" The young girl’s crying paused for a moment, and with her tear-stained little nose, she asked.

"Of course it’s true, if you don’t believe it, why don’t you ask Brother Yan?" Lin Wan turned to Xu Jiayan, giving him a suggestive look.

Xu Jiayan, unable to associate the face before him with the word "pretty," but thinking of her cries and seeing her teary eyes expectantly looking at him, as if about to cry again any second, reluctantly hummed in agreement.

"See, Aunt Wan didn’t lie to you, right?" Lin Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankful the boy didn’t say anything inappropriate.

Thankfully, the boy wasn’t beyond saving.

Having a wife really makes a difference.
