Accidentally provoking the spring tide

Chapter 41. Lu Lishen, you don't actually have a crush on me, do you? (Second Update)
Jiang Jixu took his hand and bit the straw.

The sweet taste of milk tea spread across her tongue, mixed with a faint jasmine fragrance, making her feel a little dazed. The first thing she thought of was not the smell of milk tea, but Lu Lishen.

A moment later, she realized what was happening, stepped back slightly, and smiled with her eyes blinked.

"What a coincidence! Not only did you buy the roasted chestnuts from my favorite shop, but you also chose my favorite jasmine milk tea."

Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she said in a joking tone:

"Lu Lishen, you don't actually have a crush on me, do you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Jixu felt his heart beat faster.

The aroma of chestnuts filled the carriage, a slightly sweet and enticing scent.

Lu Lishen's gaze slid down from her eyes, down to her small, delicate nose, and pale pink lips...

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, his thin lips slightly parted—

"knock knock"

The car window behind me was knocked on.

This stopped Lu Lishen from saying what he was about to say.

Jiang Jixu was also made to sit up straight, his ears turning red.

Lu Lishen lowered his head, his bangs obscuring his misty eyes, which were damp with coolness. His lips, which had been slightly curved, returned to a straight line.

He turned around, rolled down the car window, and met Jiang Wang's angry face. His eyes were equally cold as he spoke in a cool tone.

"That's pretty fast."

Jiang Wang narrowed her eyes and questioned, "Lu Lishen, what were you trying to do to my sister just now?!"

Yes! He did it on purpose!

Don't think he didn't see it!
That bastard was practically right up to his sister's face!

You malicious bastard!
Lu Lishen raised an eyebrow slightly and said unhurriedly, "It's just a little fun between my husband and me. Why are you, as his brother-in-law, so concerned?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiang Jixu's eyes flickered.

The man's tone was flat, even calm.

But Jiang Wang had been brothers with Lu Lishen for so many years, they were practically inseparable, so how could he not hear the smugness and provocation behind Lu Lishen's calm tone?

His fists were clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.

"A little romance? You've only known my sister for a few days and you already have a little romance?"

Lu Lishen smiled slightly and slowly took out the red booklet from his pocket.

“It’s normal for unmarried people not to understand.” After saying that, he paused, raised his eyes, and said in a nonchalant tone, “Oh, sorry, I forgot that you’re not only unmarried, but also a lifelong single.”

Depend on!
Jiang Wang cursed inwardly.

Why has this guy become so flirtatious since getting married?
His hand landed on the car door, intending to pull Lu Lishen out, but he caught a glimpse of Jiang Jixu's worried gaze, and his movements froze. The anger that had just accumulated deflated like a punctured balloon.

He couldn't be so impulsive. No matter what, the fact that Lu Lishen and Jiang Jixu had registered their marriage was already a fait accompli.

Beating someone up will do him no good except make his sister worry.

Jiang Wang took a deep breath.

Continuously calm down.

He kept telling himself that it was better for Jiang Jixu to get a marriage certificate with Lu Lishen than to marry that idiot Ji Yanci, right?
With him watching over her, his sister definitely won't be bullied like she was with Ji Yanci before!
Thinking this way, Jiang Wang's mood calmed down a lot.

He looked down at Lu Lishen expressionlessly and said silently:
"Your marriage is a done deal and I can't interfere, but I'm warning you, if you dare to bully my sister, I will absolutely not let you get away with it!"

Lu Lishen raised his eyebrows slightly, and answered silently as well.

"I won't give you that chance."

What are you two whispering about?

Jiang Jixu, holding roasted chestnuts in his arms, asked curiously.

"nothing."

Lu Lishen turned around, "Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"

As soon as Jiang Wang opened the back door and got in, he heard the man's sarcastic remark and deliberately mimicked it in a sarcastic tone.

Is there anything else you'd like to eat?

"Ah Wang!"

Jiang Wang snorted coldly, crossed his arms, and turned his head away.

"I'm sorry, that's just his personality, please don't mind it."

Jiang Jixu said somewhat awkwardly.

"Ok, I know."

Lu Lishen lowered his eyes. Jiang Jixu raised his hand and touched his nose, "Yes, you've been friends for so many years."

“Who’s his friend?” Jiang Wang muttered.

He finally understands it now.

Lu Lishen was single-mindedly focused on his sister.

Maybe the reason he blocked him every day and dragged him to study wasn't because of any mutual aid group, but because he knew he was Jiang Jixu's younger brother, which is why he was so shameless.

Jiang Wang frowned, the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

He said that everyone else in the class treated the mutual aid group as just a formality, but Lu Lishen took it seriously and put a lot of effort into it.

So, the real intention wasn't the wine, but rather to cast a long line to catch a big fish!
Scheming bitch!!!
Jiang Wang was so angry that his heart ached. Just then, a message popped up in the group chat. He picked it up and tried to distract himself.

Lu: [I'll introduce someone to you later.]

My sister chose me, I'm so sweet: [Old Lu, Jiang Wang came looking for you, are you two alright?]

Lu: [None]

Jiang Wang couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Forgot my own name: 【I'm magnanimous and won't stoop to his level!】

Lu Lishen ignored him and only asked where everyone was.

My sister chose me, I'm so sweet: [I'm almost there, Ah Wang ran too fast just now, I lost him.]

Jiang Wang curled his lip in disdain.

Forgot my own name: [Useless.]

My sister chose me, I'm so sweet! [Smiling face emoji]

"I forgot my own name and retracted a message."

Monkey Stealing Wine: [Old Ji and I will be there soon! Lu Shen, who are you going to introduce us to? Is it the girl in your profile picture?]

My sister chose me, I'm so sweet: [???]

Three seconds later——

A group call popped up.

The music suddenly started, startling Jiang Wang.

It also startled Jiang Jixu, who was eating chestnuts.

Lu Lishen was peeling chestnuts for the girl while looking at the group chat. When he saw this, he raised an eyebrow and looked up, saying casually, "It's my roommates' phone. They seem to be a little curious about you."

Jiang Jixu blinked gently.

Her fair and rosy cheeks puffed up slightly like a little hamster, filled with sweet and soft chestnuts.

Before he could swallow, he could only mumble, "So?"

Lu Lishen tapped his knee lightly with his finger: "So they might be quite excited later."

"Don't be scared."

Jiang Jixu thought for a moment and concluded that Lu Lishen's roommate must have noticed that he had changed his profile picture, which was why he was so curious and excited.

When Bai Xiaoxiao told her that when she was in a relationship, she was also curious about what kind of guy he was, which was normal.

Jiang Jixu chewed the chestnut and swallowed it, his voice soft and gentle, like the porcelain-white moon at night.

"It's okay, you can answer it."

"They are also Ah Wang's roommates, and I'm quite curious about them."

Lu Lishen nodded slightly, moved his fingertips, and pressed the answer button.

Jiang Wang was not able to enter the call because he was with them.

Apart from Lu Lishen himself, the other three people in the call channel had already joined and were waiting.

Upon seeing the man's profile picture appear, the three of them instantly became excited.

"Old Lu, you've finally shown up! Tell us what's going on with your profile picture?!"

Jiang Jixu spoke slowly under Lu Lishen's encouraging gaze.

"Hello everyone?"
