Chapter 468: Did Not Think of You That Way
“How could I not know when you’re shouting it like that?” Lin Mu’an helpless caught Lu Qianqian’s fumbling hands.
Lu Qianqian giggled innocently. Still, Lin Mu’an did not have the intention to make a move despite that, and merely sat beside her bed to coax her to sleep.
Still, the young lady was not content. After feeling around Lin Mu’an body, she then puked over him.
Extremely speechless, Lin Mu’an carried Lu Qianqian into the bathroom, helped her with a simple was.h.i.+ng up before throwing her on the bed.
After all, Lu Qianqian did dirty his clothes.
Which left him in a dilemma…
As such, Lin Mu’an had to knock on Mama Lu’s door.
When Mama Lu found him all soiled, she knew that her daughter had vomited, and so handed him Papa Lu’s old pajamas. “I could make you two some remedial soup.”
“You should sleep, madam. I’ll go cook instead.”
Still, Mama Lu was not worried. Anyone with the slightest of improper thoughts would be naked after bringing Lu Qianqian back to her room. Why would he have waited until Lu Qianqian puked all over him? One could see that the child’s heart was really pure.
“You should sleep too.”
However, Lin Mu’an knew that his little pepper would probably be keeping him awake overnight.
It was already two in the morning by the time he took a bath and cooked the soup, and he smiled helplessly after taking a look at the time. “Such a sweet burden.”
Drunken fumbles and one-night-stands did not apply to him at all. After all, some things should not happen so early, and he had to control his beastly desires as much as he could.
***
On the next day, when there was a little light streaming into the room, Lu Qianqian woke up to find Lin Mu’an lying down on the floor, basically naked.
She promptly squealed, jolting Lin Mu’an awake.
“What’s that roar for?” He opened his eyes drowsily—he had barely fallen asleep.
“You’re not dressed…”
“My dear young lady, your amnesia is really serious. You puked on me twice, and I asked your mother to borrow your dad’s pajamas, before you threw up again at midnight. I couldn’t disturb your mother again, so I had to sleep like this…” Lin Mu’an glared at her helplessly.
Vaguely remembering that, Lu Qianqian quickly pushed Lin Mu’an on her bed. “Why didn’t you sleep on the bed? The floor is so cold, and there is a sofa outside.”
“Me, sleeping outside like this?” Lin Mu’an rolled his eyes. “What if your mother sees me?”
“I never could have told that the result of your time with the police academy is quite obvious.” Lu Qianqian’s gaze suddenly swept through Lin Mu’an whole body, her attention hence instantly diverted. The reverse triangular frame of his body was quite apparent, and his muscles were as ripped as his skin was smooth and tender.
“Drooling already?”
“b.u.g.g.e.r off. Aren’t you in hurry to get back to the academy? And, looking like this… it’s like we’re brats who just had a date at a love hotel.”
Now that his little pepper was sober, Lin Mu’an turned and pinned Lu Qianqian beneath himself. “Now, we do.”
“You… get off.” Lu Qianqian felt her brain bloating a little. Even if they were a couple now, but… this happened so sudden that she was a little embarra.s.sed.
“You didn’t show that huge a reaction before when you put your hands over my shoulders and stuff.” Lin Mu’an teased her deliberately. After all, he did suffer a lot when he had to take care of her last night.
“At the time… I kept telling myself to treat you like a bro, which is why I didn’t think of you that way.”
“So, you do think that way now?”
Helpless, Lu Qianqian quickly covered her own face. “Stop asking!”
Lin Mu’an did not hold back—he pried her hands away and kissed her lips.
Though Lu Qianqian was a rational person, who could refuse such temptation early in the morning?
Hence, their bodies tangled, separated by a thin layer of pajamas, and Lu Qianqian could even feel Lin Mu’an’s body… changing. Still, he did nothing apart from kissing her, and so they simply rolled around the bed without doing much else.
“It’s almost six. I need to get back to the academy.”
“Okay.” Lu Qinaqian nodded, blus.h.i.+ng beneath him. “But, well… my pajamas…”
“I changed it.” Lin Mu’an gave her a knock on the head at her words. “Go bring me some of your dad’s clothes. I can’t wear my own.”
“Wait for a moment then.”
Lu Qianqian quickly got to her feet at then, and soon returned with Papa Lu’s clothes in his arms. By then, Lin Mu’an had already wrapped a towel around himself.
Lu Qianqian handed him Papa Lu’s clothes. “Wear it. Though it might be a little short.”
“Not turning around?” Lin Mu’an asked her as she took the clothes.
Lu Qianqian promptly turned around compliantly.
Lin Mu’an chuckled, putting an arm around her neck after changing and giving her a brief kiss. “Let’s get drunk more often. It’s quite interesting.”
“You always tease me.”
“And don’t you get drunk when I’m not around!” With those words, Lin Mu’an opened the door and quickly left Lu Manor after saying goodbye to Mama Lu.
Lu Qianqian only looked down at her pajamas after Lin Mu’an walked some distance away, remembering that he helped her change.
The night with Mu’an had been as tender as it was restraining, and that was exactly what stirred the heart most—it was like an itch that spread everywhere throughout one’s body.
Later, Lin Mu’an was teased by all his roommates when he returned to the academy, “That’s not what you’re wearing when you left, Bro Lin. Had a wild night with Sis-in-law?”
Lin Mu’an climbed to bed in exhaustion and changed into another set of clothes. “Had a night. Only the heavens know what I went through.”
“That’s not important. Isn’t it enough to share some sweet moments?”
After all, that sweetness was necessary…
***
Meanwhile, news of the arranged marriage between the Sheng family and the Hu family finally spread.
News that a halfwit rich daughter would soon be wedded to the Sheng family of the Third Young Master was jaw-dropping levels of shocking for all of Jianchuan.
Everyone was saying what bad luck Third Brother had in his previous lives that he would have to marry a dullard. Had his brain turned rotten too?
Nonetheless, Third Brother didn’t care about the rumors at all. He had regained his freedom after much difficulty, and he was not losing it again so quickly.
Still, tomorrow was the day he would register his marriage with Hu Ran.
The day had unwittingly arrived.
Third Brother wanted to talk to Sheng Xiao, even if it was just to vent.
Even so, his escort was not giving him any chance at all.
“Young Master, you are getting married tomorrow. Please don’t make things hard for us bodyguards.”
Nonetheless, Third Brother had stopped outside Sheng Xiao’s house.
And whether their minds resonated or some other reason, Sheng Xiao’s car stopped in front of Third Brother.
“You’re let free?” Sheng Xiao asked teasingly.
Third Brother shrugged and told the bodyguard behind him. “I didn’t come to him out on purpose. I’ll just have a few words.
