Chapter 118: Chapter 118 Seems Not Too Bad
Yu Cheng raised his eyebrows, “Let’s go back and have a snowball fight with your brothers and sisters, it’s more fun with more people.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mianmian immediately became interested, “A snowball fight? Great, let’s hurry back then.”
Zhaodi, who was clearing snow in the courtyard, saw the two returning with a board and came up to them immediately, “Big brother, Third Sister, what were you doing just now?”
Dressed in the cotton clothes given by Jiang Mianmian, she was cheerful all day and grew even fonder of Jiang Mianmian as a sister.
She also liked this particularly handsome big brother.
Jiang Mianmian, animated, said, “We went skiing outside, and now let’s all have a snowball fight together.”
“They are outside, wait a moment, I’ll call them back,” Zhaodi said and was about to run outside.
But Yu Cheng said, “Let’s go with you, and play outside.”
The Jiang Family’s courtyard was too small, not suitable for unfolding action, and playing there could easily result in hitting the windows.
The three hadn’t been out long before they found the brothers Jiang Zhiwen and Zhiwu, along with a few of their friends.
“We have eleven people in total, how should we split the teams?”
All the children looked up at Yu Cheng unanimously, waiting for him to decide.
As he was the tallest among the children and from the city, naturally, he had become their leader.
“Third Sister, Big Brother, I want to be on the same team as you,” Zhaodi approached the two, whispering with a hopeful face.
“No, girls with girls, boys with boys,” Zhiwen loudly objected.
Yu Cheng was tall and strong, so being on his team would definitely guarantee a win.
Yu Cheng said indifferently, “You can group yourselves however you want, Mianmian and I will be on the same team.”
He had never liked playing with girls since he was young, finding them bothersome.
But Jiang Mianmian was different, she was his lifesaver.
“Oh.” Zhaodi went off a bit dejectedly to find others to team up with.
Soon, the children had split into teams, each consisting of two or three children.
At Yu Cheng’s command, the snowballs began to fly in the air.
Yu Cheng tossed a big snowball accurately, hitting Jiang Zhiwen right on top of his head.
Jiang Zhiwen immediately started yelling and shaking off the snow on him, almost like he was performing a ritual dance, which made Jiang Mianmian laugh out loud.
Soon, the other team began their counterattack, but with Yu Cheng’s agile moves and quick dodging, they stood little chance.
Having swift and accurate throws, he hardly ever missed.
Unable to do anything to him, they started targeting Jiang Mianmian, who was grouped with him.
Jiang Mianmian was quite quick too, but she couldn’t dodge everyone at once, and just as a snowball was about to hit her face, she quickly covered it with her hands.
“I forgot to say, no hitting the face!”
But the anticipated cold impact never came, because Yu Cheng stood in front of her and retaliated with a snowball in the opponent’s face.
Honestly, being protected by a twelve-year-old boy at that moment, Jiang Mianmian felt quite touched and thought that calling him “brother” wasn’t too bad.
Yu Cheng didn’t hit girls, only boys, and soon had the boys crying for their moms.
Seeing that he didn’t target them, the girls gradually and consciously joined Yu Cheng in hitting the boys, who couldn’t hold on for long and soon raised their hands in surrender.
Under Yu Cheng’s protection, Jiang Mianmian was not only barely hit but also had a great time.
The group of children played wildly outside all morning and were ravenously hungry by lunchtime, eating fiercely.
Zhang Guihua watched as Jiang Mianmian and Yu Cheng devoured bowl after bowl of rice, feeling extremely heartbroken.
But there was nothing she could do about Jiang Mianmian, and as Yu Cheng was a guest from the Capital City, she couldn’t possibly stop him from eating either.
