"Xiao Li, why are you blocking the doorway?"

Zhou Yanchuan carried the plate out of the kitchen, his gaze passing over Jiang Li, and then he saw the tall figure outside the door and paused for a moment.

"Chi Ye? Why are you soaked like this?"

Zhou Chiye shifted his gaze from Jiang Li's face and turned to look at Zhou Yanchuan.

"The downpour came too suddenly when we were playing on the south court."

Zhou Chiye swung the basketball in his hand, his tone casual, reverting to his usual carefree and cheerful demeanor.

"I'm closest to your place, so I came over to stay here for a bit."

Zhou Yanchuan placed the plate on the dining table.

"How old are you? Why are you soaked like this?"

Nineteen, just turned 18.

Zhou Chiye spoke with conviction.

"Brother, you can't expect a kid who's just turned 18 to be perfect in every way."

Jiang Li almost burst out laughing.

A child who is 1.9 meters tall.

"Alright, hurry up and go inside. Go take a hot shower, or you'll catch a cold."

Zhou Yanchuan urged him on, then turned and went to his room to get his clothes.

"Okay, bro."

Jiang Li stepped aside.

Zhou Chiye stepped into the house.

The corridor was a bit narrow when I passed by Jiang Li.

As his arm swept across, a few drops of icy water slid down his forearm and splashed onto Jiang Li's exposed hand.

A very light touch.

Jiang Li's hand felt numb.

The feeling was amplified three times by the skill, shooting from the back of my hand all the way to my fingertips, and then up my arm to the back of my neck.

She instinctively gripped the hem of her clothes.

Zhou Chiye also stopped in his tracks.

He looked down at his arm, then at the back of Jiang Li's hand.

His skin, so white it was almost translucent, was still damp with water droplets.

The boy's Adam's apple bobbed.

"...Sorry, I got my sister wet."

The boy's voice was hoarse, unlike that of a nineteen-year-old.

"fine."

Jiang Li withdrew her hand and smiled at him.

"Go take a shower, don't catch a cold."

Zhou Chiye stared at her and smiled.

Then he lowered his eyes, turned and walked towards the bathroom, his steps much faster than before.

Jiang Li leaned against the wall, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.

[System, why is this puppy so aggressive?]

[Baby, he's not a dog.]

That was a wolf that hadn't eaten for ten or fifteen days; its eyes were green, and it was the kind that specifically targeted people's necks.

I'm his mistress in name only.

"Wouldn't that be even more exciting?"

Jiang Li shivered slightly.

Is she really that good at only nineteen?

The sound of water could be heard coming from the bathroom.

Jiang Li composed herself and obediently sat down at the dining table.

Five minutes later, the bathroom door opened.

Zhou Chiye walked out, drying his hair.

He was wearing a black T-shirt that Zhou Yanchuan had worn.

The problem is that the two brothers are quite different in size.

Zhou Yanchuan has a normal build, while Zhou Chiye has the physique of an athlete who has trained through long-term playing ball.

So when he wore this T-shirt, the shoulders were so tight they looked like they were about to burst, and the fabric clung to his broad back muscles and thin waistline.

The pants were also shorter, revealing her slender ankles.

He casually draped a towel around his neck, tossed his wet black hair back to reveal his clean, sharp face.

Wow.

The system whistled in its head.

Jiang Li forcibly looked away from the taut fabric, her ears turning red.

She's also a sucker for good looks; with such a stunning figure right in front of her, who could resist?

But his eyes couldn't help but wander a little.

Just for a moment.

Then she quickly shifted her gaze back to the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table.

Hmm, spare ribs, look at spare ribs.

Hearing the noise, Xu Qingyu looked up and glanced at it.

After all, it's only natural to take a second look at such a tall, handsome guy overflowing with hormones.

Zhou Yanchuan noticed it.

He walked over almost immediately, casually put his arm around Xu Qingyu's shoulder, and spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Chi Ye, this is Xu Qingyu. You can call him Brother Xu. He is my assistant and my business partner."

The company has been very busy lately, so I can only work overtime from home to discuss work.

He then looked at Xu Qingyu: "This is my younger brother, Zhou Chiye."

Zhou Chiye has transformed into a cheerful and harmless young man.

He smiled, nodded to Xu Qingyu, and greeted him, "Hello, Brother Xu."

His tone was casual and appropriate, typical of a big boy.

After greeting her, Zhou Chiye turned his head and stared intently at Jiang Li.

He strode forward, taking long strides.

Stopped just half a step away from Jiang Li.

He lowered his head and bent down to get closer to her.

A pair of dark eyes.

Based on his status, he should be called *zi.

But the two words stuck between his tongue annoyed him so much that he wanted to chew them up.

Once she utters those words, her relationship with her brother will be strained.

The boy bent down, leaned closer, and his tone became soft and obedient.

"elder sister."

Jiang Li looked up at him.

Up close, I saw those dark eyes and the beauty mark under their eye.

When he smiles, he really looks like a large dog begging for petting.

"Um?"

Jiang Li looked up.

Up close, those round eyes looked even brighter.

Her rosy lips were still glistening with watermelon juice, the moisture clinging to her cupid's bow.

Zhou Chiye stared at it for several seconds.

"What do you want from me?"

Jiang Li stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him.

Zhou Chiye came to his senses.

"fine."

He smiled, revealing a set of white teeth.

"I just wanted to call out to you."

"You used to call me 'sister' too, why are you still doing it today?"

Zhou Yanchuan brought out the soup, speaking casually.

Zhou Chiye straightened up.

"It's been half a year since we last met, let's make up for it."

"what ever."

Zhou Yanchuan didn't take it seriously.

The two are seven years apart in age and have called each other that since they were little, so changing their address would feel awkward.

Jiang Li noticed that Zhou Chiye's hair was still dripping wet, so she took a dry towel out of the cabinet.

"Dry yourself before eating."

She handed the towel over.

Zhou Chiye reached out to take it, his fingers touching her hand.

The soft touch traveled upwards from where they touched.

Jiang Li immediately relaxed.

Zhou Chiye, however, did not move.

He felt as if that small patch of skin was on fire.

A tingling sensation traveled up my arm and burned into my heart.

His entire face and neck, including his ears, turned bright red.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Li deliberately blinked her big, watery eyes and looked at him with an innocent expression.

"It's nothing."

Zhou Chiye grabbed a towel, rubbed his head haphazardly a couple of times, and strode towards the restaurant.

He turned his back to Jiang Li, squeezed his eyes shut, and felt his heart pounding in his chest.

He doesn't care who she is now, he's determined to take her away.

"Come and eat, it'll get cold if you don't eat now."

Zhou Yanchuan set out the bowls and chopsticks.

Zhou Chiye sat down next to Jiang Li, the skin behind his ear burning red.

His gaze, however, began to wander, lingering on her lips before slowly moving away.

His heart pounded so hard it made his chest feel tight.

He had never thought that the word "older sister" could be so sweet.

Four dishes and a soup were laid out on the table.

Sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried celery with pork, stir-fried romaine lettuce, and a winter melon and pork rib soup.

Zhou Yanchuan sat in the main seat, with Xu Qingyu on his left and Jiang Li on his right. Zhou Chiye sat next to Jiang Li.

"Everyone, let's start eating."

Zhou Yanchuan spoke in a gentle tone.

He picked up the serving chopsticks, took a large spoonful of celery stir-fried with meat, and put it directly into the small bowl in front of Jiang Li.

"Little Pear, eat more vegetables, they're good for your health."

He smiled like a considerate and loving husband.

Jiang Li looked at the bright green celery in the bowl and felt unhappy.
