Chapter 324: Love Near-fetched (Part Five)
As her fingers touched her brother’s thin lips, Zheng Lun felt being engulfed by some sensations like never before. It was like an electrical shock and she felt her fingers getting numb, and heart beating fast. She breathed rapidly.
Her face flushed like an overripe shrimp.
After the flirty move of a woman’s finger into a man’s mouth was achieved, Zhao Anan ran back to Mu Qing quickly and started to stuff eggplants into her mouth as she talked loudly, “Tasty! I want to make food again. Mu, be my assistant.”
Mu Qing liked it a lot when Zhao Anan addressed him in this way, because when they were innocent and ignorant ten years ago and had fallen in love with each other for the first time, Zhao Anan would address him as “Mu” in a flirty way.
He had no idea about Zheng Lun’s situation. So he had no idea what Zhao Anan just did. After hearing what she said, he immediately responded, “Okay! Let’s make soup. You like winter melon with wood – ear right?”
He picked out the ingredients and started to peel them off proficiently. Then he got them ready for Zhao Anan to chop them up.
Zheng Jing had never been close to any woman apart from his sister. He had never had any intimate relationship with anyone else in such a flirty way like today.
Those who graduated from military school tended to possess a strong sense of self control and didn’t get moved by women very easily. Zheng Jing, who graduated from royal military school with excellent grades, was undoubtedly strong in willpower. Therefore, he had no interest towards the women who tried to approach him.
Also, due to the professional reason, Zheng Jing didn’t spend much time with women. He didn’t know much about women, especially when compared to Mu Qing.
Zheng Jing tried hard to forget the scene when his sister put her finger into his mouth. He also tried hard to suppress the excitement stirring inside him. He said with a slightly hoarse voice, “Lun, help me wash the fresh beans. They will be needed later.”
Zheng Jing would definitely not ask Zheng Lun to do this kind of work usually, but his heart was beating fast and Zheng Lun’s face was red. Hence, he had to find some work for her to distract her and himself.
Otherwise he didn’t know what crazy things he would do if they continued in this manner.
As he saw his sister’s supple red lips, he couldn’t help but want to kiss her.
Zheng Jing smiled bitterly – had he been away from women for so long so that he wanted to kiss his own sister?
He was going crazy!
Maybe, he should find a girlfriend.
If he was married, his sister would forget about him, wouldn’t she?
Zheng Jing tried to distract himself and to forget what had just happened.
Did Zhao Anan do that on purpose?
Zheng Jing shook his head inside his heart.
That was impossible. Zhao Anan was a careless woman and she couldn’t possibly notice something like this. If it had been Shangguan Ning who was careful and smart, he would have believed the possibility.
Shangguan Ning could possibly notice that how Zheng Lun looked at him was not a look with sisterly love. That was how she looked at Jing Yichen, after all.
Among the three women, Shangguan Ning was the most capable one with the highest EQ. She had been taking care of Zheng Lun all the time and talked with her in a way Zheng Lun which was not over the top. She had done it just right.
That was why Zheng Lun would want her sister to hang out with Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan. He could not be assured about Zhao Anan, because she was too outgoing. But he could trust Shangguan Ning who was considerate.
Shangguan Ning was not an outstanding person, but she had no flaws either. She seemed ordinary, but she was actually almost perfect, in a different way from Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen was perfect so people admired him and kept a distance from him. But Shangguan Ning was perfect, because she made people feel at ease and she attracted them too.
That was what Zheng Jing thought after getting to know her.
People had flaws. Both Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun did. So did Mu Qing and as a matter of fact, Jing Yichen did too.
But in so many years, Shangguan Ning was the only woman Zheng Jing had met who had no flaws.
She was beautiful but she was definitely not an extremely striking woman. But whatever she did, made people feel comfortable and people could relax in front of her.
He understood now why Shangguan Ning could make Jing Yichen, who never approached women, fall in love with her. She suited Jing Yichen best and she was whom Jing Yichen needed as well.
Zheng Jing decided to let sister hang out with an excellent woman like her more and to learn from her so that when she grew up, she would forget about him.
After some distraction, Zheng Jing finally lost the excitement inside his heart. He turned to look at his sister again and found that she was again showing her gentle smile and calm expression.
But as he looked at his sister’s thin and white fingers washing the beans, Zheng Jing felt that he couldn’t keep his eyes off her.
That was the finger he just had in his mouth.
A patch of red colour covered Zheng Lun’s white ears. Apparently, she was still lingering at the edge of shyness.
His sister’s eyes were so beautiful, exquisite and tempting.
Tempting?
What was he thinking?
Zheng Jing forced his eyes off her and said in a calm voice, “Lun, let me wash them. You have never done it before and you don’t need to.”
Zheng Lun looked up and her eyes were glazed. “But Brother, I want to do that and I also want to learn to cook! Can I?”
Even Zhao Anan could cook, she must learn to cook too!
As long as her brother was willing to teach her, she would soon be able to learn to cook as well.
Slightly startled, Zheng Jing said smilingly, “Who are you learning this for? If mom and dad ever got to know that I am making you cook, they would slay me alive!”
His heart ached a bit inside him.
This fragile sister wanted to learn to cook for some reason, one that he knew without needing to think.
She did it for him. She was running after him with all she had.
“You don’t need to tell mom and dad. When I learn how to cook, I will give them a surprise. They will definitely be happy. ”
Zheng Lun sounded eager. Sweat beads emerged at the tip of her little nose, making her look lovely and adorable.
Zheng Jing smiled. His sister now knew how to conceal.
What progress! When she spun lies now, she did not twist her fingers. She had them clenched instead.
It seemed that she had progressed after getting to know others.
“Okay, I will teach you to cook, but you mustn’t practice on the sly without me.”
In case you got so eager that you got yourself injured. Then my heart would ache badly.
