520 Unusual 2
dually later" She was crying pitifully.“Let me ask my family. I’m not too sure about the prices either. If there’s something suitable, I’ll save it for you.” I stood up, carrying the treasure chest a...Jiang Qiyun's face darkened, and I huddled in the bathtub, not knowing how to speak.
This isn't as comfortable as my small apartment building, this 3D bathroom is so tiny, just a toilet and a triangular bathtub that can only fit one person. You can't even turn around if someone else comes in.
He didn't consider my embarrassment at all and just pushed the door open and walked in.
"Your eyes still hurt" He crouched outside the bathtub, reaching out to pull my hand down.
I covered my face with a towel to hide my embarrassment. This was a three-dimensional bathroom with half transparent and half frosted glass.
If my brother walks in, what should I say
"What are you spacing out about" Jiang Qiyun lightly furrowed her brow, pointing to the edge of the bathtub. "Lean back here."
"What are you doing" I asked, bewildered.
He reached into the water and fished out a towel, his long fingers twisting it to wring it dry before folding it neatly and placing it on the edge of the bathtub.
Seeing water stains on his cuffs made me feel guilty—His Majesty is someone who is waited upon, and seeing him do these things made me feel sorry for him.
"... I brought some dew from Fang Qianlin's garden, to wash your eyes with. Don't get hurt," he said lightly.
I leaned back against the edge of the bathtub, a strand of his hair falling to my cheek, cool and carrying that unique, chilly scent of him.
I couldn't help but tousle his hair, and he held my head in place with his fingers pressing on either side of my temples. He moved a small porcelain bottle close to my eyes like an eyedropper, ready to administer its contents.
"It'll be a little chilly." he reminded.
"Oh... Cooler than you" I asked with a smile.
He chuckled softly, without answering me right away, instead letting a single drop of dew fall from the corner of my eye.
More than just coldness, that refreshing sensation went straight to my mind and heart, like a jolt of enlightenment. It was so stimulating that I suddenly opened my eyes wide.
However, he covered my eyes with his large hand and whispered softly, “Close your eyes, learn to calm your mind, and dispel all distracting thoughts.”
Calm your mind and focus your intentions, discard all distracting thoughts...
My cheek suddenly brushed against cool hair, and I heard a faint rustling of fabric.
"Ugh——!!" A cool sensation spread across her lips.
He kissed her.
Lightly biting her lip, her tongue tangled and wouldn't let go, sucking hard.
It's been a long time since I've had such a passionate kiss.
Although we were apart for almost three months, this slight sense of strangeness and distance actually disappeared under these circumstances.
I tasted a hint of metallic sweetness.
This scent mixed with his cold fragrance, almost pulling me into a whirlwind of chaos.
He did that on purpose.
To be held in his hands when I'm most exposed, vulnerable.
His icy gaze, full of tenderness, or a devilishly charming smirk playing on his lips.
All are the illusions that bewitch my heart.
"You're getting emotional, my little wife," he loosened his hand covering my eyes and chuckled softly as he helped me up.
I glared at him, how could a kiss like that be unfeeling
His body's reactions...he knows them better than I do!
His large hand enveloped my shoulder, a light chuckle escaping his lips. "You're too thin," he said, "Your shoulders, your neck, your waist, your wrists, and even your ankles are all too slender, not even enough to fill one grip… I'm truly afraid that if I apply just a bit of force, I'd crush you..."
I was sitting in the water, and he, wearing a double-layered coat, was mockingly watching me. This effortless look of his made me feel a little resentful.
Why is he flirting with me and then making fun of me!
“....Your cultivation is too shallow, your whole body is glowing pink, hmph...” He smiled and reached out to hug me.
I hugged his neck and deliberately rubbed water all over him!
That scoundrel, he's terrible in this matter!
I stood barefoot outside the bathtub, the cramped space was quite alluring, but...
"Ahem... I don't mean to interrupt, but... Qiao, could you come save me My brother is going crazy!" My brother said at the door.
This whole area was frosted glass, and all my brother could see were two silhouettes inside. He was driven to the brink of insanity by Shao Yihang's personality, which was as sticky as chewing gum.
Though Shao Yihang's sexual orientation is a mystery (in fact, I've already decided he's of a special orientation), he is after all the child of a high-ranking official and quite capable, not even screwing his father over.
He is a very shrewd person.
My brother's sarcasm and digs, he just thickens his skin and pretends not to understand. And he never strays from his agenda, weaving in three sentences without fail, driving my brother to the brink of losing his temper.
"This is the time to call Lin Yanqin to save the day!" I muttered to my brother as I wiped my hair.
My brother smacked his lips: "Don't mess around, I'm afraid that girl will get targeted by him."
"...So what do you want me to do He already knows we're siblings, I can't be your shield anymore."
"You go talk to him. I just told him about our family's business of exorcising demons, and I only handle business matters." My brother made a bow to me: "Daoist friend, for the sake of siblings, please help me get rid of him!"
I walked out helplessly. Shao Yihang saw me and his eyes lit up slightly, smiling: “Last time I didn't take a good look, sure enough, you two siblings are so similar in appearance, both with good genes, looking so beautiful.”
"My brother isn't as handsome...I think he's not as pretty as you." I replied, my gaze falling back on his diamond earring.
Well, ahem, well... Scents...
I steadied my mind, trying not to judge others. Karma, karma... even if he wore ten diamond earrings, I would pretend not to see them.
"Miss Mu, I apologize for my previous disrespect. I've never met a girl like you before, I was so surprised that I did some impolite things. Please don't hold it against me." He gave me an apologetic smile with a sheepish grin.
A chill ran down my spine. Jiang Qiyun, with a cold voice, asked, "What did he do"
"It's nothing, just don't point guns at people randomly next time. What if it goes off" I looked at Jiang Qiyun, this sentence was actually an explanation for him.
Jiang Qiyun let out a light hum and sat on the nearby armchair, listening to our conversation.
Shao Yihang poked his arm: "It's so cold outside, you guys are still using air conditioning"
"Ahem, the hall is rather spacious... let's get down to business. What exactly is going on with your mother" I quickly steered the conversation back on track.
When it came to this, his chest heaved several times before he pulled out his phone and showed me the photo.
"My mom's been acting really different lately... I've been stuck at the project site because of some stuff that happened before, and haven't been home in a long time. The signal's not great so I could only call her... Now that I'm back, something feels off! You see..."
He made a comparison photo: "Look at what my mom used to look like, then compare it to now. She looks ten years younger, and she's always wearing makeup and dressing up to go to parties. She didn't used to be like this."
"Didn't your dad notice anything unusual" I asked casually.
His fingers paused, looking at me with disbelief, as if I had asked a foolish question.
< >nior brother looked at me earnestly.I lowered my eyes slightly: “Oh… it’s easy to say that, she hasn’t fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother, but the monthly allowance the family gives her has ne...
