"Comrade Lu, are you a monk? I've been holding you like this, aren't you even a little bit tempted?"

"I...I'm not interested."

"Let me touch it."

"What are you touching?"

Lin Qingyan placed her hand directly on his chest, gently squeezing it with her small hand, and even felt the allure of his firm pectoral muscles through the thin fabric.

"Touch your heart and see if you are lying."

"Of course I wasn't lying."

Lu Zhengting was so nervous that sweat was beading on his forehead. If Lin Qingyan continued to tease him, he was afraid that he would lose control and hug her or even kiss her.

He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself, but his voice became hoarse.

"Comrade Lin, can you let me go now?"

Lin Qingyan looked at him, who was covered in sweat, and realized that he really was just like Tang Sanzang.

"Why didn't you push me away? If you didn't like me hugging you, why didn't you push me away?" she argued irrationally.

Lu Zhengting raised his hand, truly reluctant to push her away.

"You're just being stubborn." Lin Qingyan suddenly turned to face him, staring at his lips, which were of moderate thickness and very beautiful. She then brought her own lips close to his. "How about I try and see just how hard they really are?"

Their eyes met for a split second, their lips barely a few centimeters apart. If Lin Qingyan had gotten any closer, she could have kissed him.

Lu Zhengting looked into Lin Qingyan's tender eyes, then down to her delicate, white nose, and finally down to her rosy, alluring lips.

I really want to pick them right away.

But then he suddenly came to his senses, "Comrade Lin!" Lu Zhengting was annoyed at himself for being so weak-willed, "Comrade Lin, don't do this, it will defile you."

Even when they kiss, it's always him who initiates the kiss.

For their first time, he wanted to give her the best experience.

Lin Qingyan ultimately did not kiss him. She would not force Lu Zhengting. Their first kiss should at least wait until Lu Zhengting was willing to accept it. Of course, it would be better if he took the initiative.

She flirted with the handsome man for a while and felt refreshed. After all, she had managed to get some attention from him today.

She withdrew her arm and coughed lightly.

"Comrade Lu, don't be nervous, let's begin the treatment."

"good."

Lu Zhengting's tense nerves finally relaxed, but he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Once this period is over, the girl will be his.

He originally intended to get onto the kang (heated brick bed) by himself, but Lin Qingyan hugged him from behind, dragged him onto the kang, and gave his chest muscles a hard pat.

When asked about her blatant groping of Lu Zhengting, she offered a plausible explanation: "Comrade Lu, the more I help you, the faster your leg will heal."

Lu Zhengting didn't mind Lin Qingyan taking advantage of him. After all, he would be hers sooner or later. As long as she wasn't defiled too much, he could accept anything else.

He lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed), and Lin Qingyan rolled up his trouser leg and carefully examined his injuries.

Her expression returned to the seriousness and focus she had shown when she was treating him.

"Comrade Lu, it's a bit worse than when I last examined you, but don't be afraid. Cooperate actively with the treatment, and you'll definitely recover quickly. The weather is gradually warming up, and the rising temperature will also help with the treatment of your leg. You must have confidence in yourself."

"Yes." Lu Zhengting nodded: "I also believe in Comrade Lin."

Lin Qingyan performed acupuncture on him following the previous treatment procedure.

After the acupuncture was finished, Lu's mother and Li Qinqin had not yet returned, so she personally massaged him.

At this moment, she had no distracting thoughts and treated the patient as her own. However, someone else had already been having impure thoughts, and his mind was filled with lewd ideas.

He recalled that Lin Qingyan had hugged him earlier and almost kissed him.

Without realizing it, he thought of their wedding night.

How should he take the first step with her? What positions would satisfy her the most?

He spent most of his time in the military and often heard married veterans tell dirty jokes in private, so he had some knowledge of this subject.

Without realizing it, a smile appeared on my lips.

"My legs, please get better soon."

Yes, it will.

Around 10 a.m., Lu's mother and Li Qinqin returned from the county town. They had bought a lot of things, including meat and vegetables.

As soon as Lu's mother returned, she went into the room to see Lu Zhengting. She saw Lin Qingyan massaging Lu Zhengting's legs and smiled, "Little Lin Qingyan, Qinqin and I came back late. Could you please massage Zhengting's legs?"

"Auntie, it's nothing. Anyway, I don't have to work today, so I have plenty of time. I'm a professional doctor, so my massage will definitely be more effective than yours."

"That's true. Okay, then let's continue massaging him. I'm going to the kitchen to cook."

Since she was his own wife, Lu's mother didn't stand on ceremony.

"Okay, Auntie."

On the mountain, Lin Sisi searched carefully again and again in the place where she had been yesterday, but she couldn't find the jade pendant.

After three searches, the sun was high in the southern sky, but she still hadn't found anything, and her hope of finding the jade pendant was becoming increasingly slim.

Finally, after searching those places again, she was almost completely disappointed.

After resting on the ground for a while, she was still not giving up. She got up and went to search in other places.

The brigade leader passed by the educated youth settlement and wanted to tell Lin Sisi that Lin Guanghui had confessed, but he did not see Lin Sisi when he arrived at the settlement.

Chen Lu told him, "Comrade Lin Sisi went up the mountain early this morning and hasn't returned yet."

"What is she doing going up the mountain alone?"
