Chapter 167: Chapter 167 First Kiss Arc – A Kiss
I scratched Chu Yuan’s little feet with force; the bratty girl felt the pain and retracted her leg with a soft cry. Then I chuckled and said: “People can change, things that they don’t know can be learned slowly, and things that are bad can be corrected slowly. No matter how bad I am, I can’t let my little sister take care of me for a lifetime, right? Besides, your elder sister Cheng is not as bad as you think, there is also a delicate and caring side of her that you didn’t see. . .”
“So, you like her?”
Before I finished speaking, Chu Yuan sat up instantly, her eyes were like a frozen lake in winter, exuding a cold chill, making me shudder all of sudden. I subconsciously acted dumb and said, “Who said that?”
Chu Yuan’s expression eased a little, “Then why are you explaining for her, as if you really want to marry her?”
“I’m just correcting your misconceptions of her.” Chu Yuan’s prejudice against Liusu was deeper than I expected. I couldn’t help but smile bitterly inside, ‘why should I care about Chu Yuan’s thoughts? It is me who is looking for a wife, not her who is looking for a wife! Some men became totally henpecked by their wives after getting married, but I turned out to be henpecked by my little sister before getting married. . .’
“Good! Although your conditions are really not good, you can find a woman who is better than Cheng Liusu,” Chu Yuan moved pretty face close to me and said with an ambiguous smile, “For example. . . Dongfang, ouch~!”
I knew this bratty girl would say this. I mercilessly pinched her pink cheeks, and said in an irritated tone, “Does your elder brother look like a pedophile? If you make this kind of joke again, I will really get angry.”
“You think that I am joking? I was serious. . . Ow, Ow, Ow~~~”
“What about now?”
“Huh! What’s wrong with Dongfang? She is beautiful and has a good family background. . . OW~! It hurts~ it hurts~ Okay, okay, I’m kidding. I won’t say it anymore. Brother, let go, it hurts”
“Huh! That’s more like it,” I let go of my paw, and then couldn’t help frowning curiously: “Yuan Yuan, you said that Dongfang has a good family background, what exactly does her family do?”
Chu Yuan rubbed her red cheek and said with an annoyed tone, “Since you don’t like her, why do you need to know?”
“I am just curious,” I said seriously: “The VIP membership card she took out tonight, the owner of that french restaurant only made three of them. That’s not a card that ordinary people can have. What exactly does her family do, you should know, right?”
Seeing that I was serious, Chu Yuan couldn’t help but become a little gloomy, “I don’t know, Dongfang has never talked about her family to others. I only know that her relationship with her family is not very good. Maybe it’s because her family rarely stays with her. I have met with her mother twice. She is a very beautiful lady, but she is very strict with Dongfang. How should I put it. . . They are not like mothers and daughters, they are more like. . . enemies.”
“Enemies?”
“Mhm,” Chu Yuan said with pity flashing in her eyes: “Her mother seldom cares about her study and life, but always forces her to do things she doesn’t like to do. You think Dongfang seems to be very happy in front of others. In fact, she is not happy about her life. She is a strong-minded person. That’s why she doesn’t like others calling her first name Lianren. Lianren means a pitiful person, she said she doesn’t like it. She is not a pitiful person, and she does not need other people’s pity. . .”
No wonder that Chu Yuan had such a good relationship with her, but she still called her by her last name ‘Dongfang’ and never called her by her first name. It must also be the reason why she tried to avoid talking about her family matters every time when someone brought that topic up. . .
“Brother, in the future, can I bring Dongfang home and play with her at home often?”
This bratty girl was begging me, but I could see clearly the sly gleams in her eyes. However, I had just learned about the loneliness of Dongfang. How could I bring myself to refuse it? I could only nod, “Yes. . .”
I always felt that Chu Yuan intentionally wanted to fix me up with Dongfang, and it didn’t look like she was teasing me. I hoped this was just my imagination. Even if she couldn’t accept Liusu or any woman who was unfamiliar to her to be her sister-in-law, she wouldn’t introduce Dongfang to replace this role, right? If she really had such a mentality, it could only prove that Chu Yuan’s introverted personality has reached a pathological level, which was definitely not a good thing. . .
“Yay! Thank you, elder brother!” Chu Yuan let out a cheer, and unexpectedly bounced up and hugged my neck.
Scenting the faint fragrance of the bratty girl’s body, my face was a little hot, and I tried to push Chu Yuan away, but when my paws touched her slender skinny waist, my arms were reluctant to exert any strength. Looking at the beautiful face in front of me, my heartbeat speeded up suddenly.
I was ashamed. Although I had been treated as a snake and scorpion by her for nearly ten years, after our relationship suddenly improved, I actually didn’t know how to reject it. . .
In order to conceal the greed I had at the moment, I smiled and asked, “It is always easier to say it. If you really want to thank me, you need to prove it.”
After these words were said, I suddenly felt that it sounded a little familiar. Sure enough, I saw a flash of red on Chu Yuan’s face, and she said shyly, “I have almost forgotten about it. I promised to thank you last time for going to school to meet Ms. Shu. . .”
‘That’s it!’ I almost didn’t remember it if she didn’t mention it today. This bratty girl used me as a cushion and leaned on me to watch TV all day long. Didn’t she promise to be my cushion once last time?’ My heart throbbed, but my expression became very serious, “Last time was last time, what about this time?”
“This time. . .” Chu Yuan pointed her slender finger against her small chin, and after thinking about it carefully, her pretty face gradually became flushed, and she said embarra.s.sedly, “How about a kiss?”
“What?” I almost choked on my saliva, “A kiss?”
My frightened appearance obviously hurt Chu Yuan’s arrogant self-esteem to a certain extent, “What is your reaction? Am I poisonous? !”
“No, no,” I waved my hand hurriedly: “I am just a little surprised. . .”
“We are siblings, and we are not kissing each other. What’s there to be surprised about?” Chu Yuan blushed and murmured, “Besides, it’s not the first time I have kissed you.”
Speaking of it, to deliberately make Lv Siqi misunderstand our relationship, Chu Yuan did kiss me last time, so I smiled: “That time was different. . .”
“Why so many excuses. If you don’t want it, just say it. Do you think I like to kiss you? Huh!” Chu Yuan pushed me on the shoulder, feeling offended, “Why didn’t you have this much scruples when mom kissed you earlier? If you don’t like me, just say it, I know you don’t like me anyway. . .”
This bratty girl always liked to think too much about everything. I hurriedly said: “What are you talking about? I’m just worried that you will be losing out, and you will regret it.”
“Since I proposed it, of course, I will not regret it.” Chu Yuan probably also felt that her reply was a bit ambiguous, she lowered her face again and murmured again, “Although I will indeed be losing out, only that can prove that I am really grateful.”
This girl. . . I really didn’t know what she was thinking at all. Whether it was what she said or her att.i.tude, why was there always a sense of contradiction?
I secretly thought it was funny, but I was afraid that my smile would further irritate this little bratty girl, so I tried my best to hold my smile back and said with a look of great antic.i.p.ation, “Okay then, but if you want to kiss, you have to give me a big kiss, and don’t try to fool me. Do you understand?”
“Do not underestimate me!” After being provoked by me, Chu Yuan immediately got up on her knees, held my shoulders, and approached me with her lips, but when we made eye contact, her face instantly turned red like a hot stove, and her movement also slowed down.
Not only Chu Yuan was more embarra.s.sed, but I was also feeling the same. Last time when Chu Yuan kissed me, I wasn’t looking, and she did it very quickly. But this time, no matter the environment or the mood, they were competently different. At this moment, looking at the ruddy little mouth gradually approaching my face, smelling the warm fragrance from her breath, my heart was beating like a little deer chasing after a little bunny, it was jumping everywhere, and very chaotic.
“You. . . You close your eyes!” Chu Yuan didn’t have the courage to complete the kiss under my gaze, and said embarra.s.sedly, “You always look at me, it feels weird.”
I felt the same. . . I couldn’t help but smile, “Okay, okay, I won’t watch.” I pretended to be calm as usual, fearing that I would be looked down on by Chu Yuan.
Hearing Chu Yuan take a deep breath, her hands suddenly grabbed my shoulder even more tightly. So much so that it was a little bit painful. This bratty girl said that she was willing to do it earlier, but now, she definitely regretted it. ‘Alas, you brought this on yourself. . .’
