Chapter 60 A Love Without an Answer
It was already evening when I returned from the office of the Ministry of Supervision.
The lights were on in the house, and as soon as I got to the door, I heard my younger sister Sui Ling's laughter coming from inside.
As soon as the door was opened, the aroma of food wafted out.
Sui Ling was cooking in the kitchen, while Lu Zhi was lounging casually on the sofa.
She saw him return with a smile in her eyes, then stood up straight and walked towards him.
She took two steps closer, lowered her head as if to kiss his cheek.
Sui Cheng took a step back, looking at him with suspicion. What was this person going to do now?
Lu Zhi turned his head and touched his cheek, whispering in his ear, "Welcome back, our head of the family."
Sui Cheng gave his chest a disdainful push and whispered, "What's wrong with you now?"
Lu Zhi glanced at Sui Ling in the kitchen and chuckled, "My sister asked me what our relationship is, so I have to give an answer, don't I?"
Even without saying anything, that action just now was enough to tell Sui Ling what their relationship was.
Sui Cheng glanced at his sister, who was watching them from the kitchen, and rubbed his temples helplessly, saying, "I'll talk to her."
Lu Zhi shrugged, indicating that he understood.
He returned just as the meal was ready, and the family of three sat down for a delicious dinner.
Seeing that his younger sister and Lu Zhi were getting along well, Sui Cheng actually felt a sense of relief.
After the meal, the lawyer was sent by his attendant to wash the dishes.
Sui Ling then pulled her brother to the balcony, secretly glanced at Lu Zhi, and only after seeing him diligently washing the dishes did she whisper, "Brother, are you really with him?"
The passenger shook his head: "Not yet."
"So that means you'll be together from now on." Sui Ling's expression didn't seem very happy, but she wasn't sad because her brother was about to be taken away by someone else. She just felt that although her brother seemed aloof and unapproachable, he was actually very soft-hearted and could be coaxed with a few kind words.
What she feared was that her brother would be deceived by Lu Zhi, after all, Lu Zhi had the face of someone who had been a seasoned womanizer for many years.
Seeing his sister's worried expression, he felt quite helpless.
Sui Ling continued, "Does your brother like him? Or is it simply because he's good-looking?"
The passenger raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's the difference between the two?"
“Of course there is.” Sui Ling nodded seriously and said, “If you’re only attracted to him because of his looks, you won’t bother to find out what kind of person he is. What if you get deceived? If you really like him as a person, then you should definitely find out more about his character.”
Sui Cheng had no idea what kind of image he had in his sister's eyes; the word "deceived" was actually being used to describe him one day.
"Xiaoling, do you think your brother looks like someone who's easy to fool?"
Sui Ling nodded without hesitation.
Sui Cheng was suddenly choked up, and all the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. In the end, he could only chuckle a few times and say, "Don't worry, brother knows how to do things properly, and Lu Zhi is not a bad person."
"But brother said before that this person had a problem and that you were monitoring him. How come you've changed your mind now?" The little girl puffed out her cheeks, looking very unhappy, which further solidified her belief that her brother had been deceived.
Sui Cheng gently patted his little sister's head and looked towards the kitchen.
"If you ask me why I like law enforcement, I honestly can't give you an answer." His voice was very low.
When I first met Lü Zhi, I was instantly smitten by his exceptionally handsome face, but that feeling quickly faded.
Because Lu Zhi is a very strange person, and his whole being gives off a very unsettling feeling.
She spoke incoherently and did things that were hard to understand, but the affection and trust she showed him were genuine.
If the law is deceiving him, then so be it.
But when Lu Zhi revealed his true identity to him without any reservations, Sui Cheng had a feeling that if he wanted to kill him one day, he would never fight back, and might even offer his chest to Lu Zhi's knife.
When he heard the lawyer ask him aggrievedly why his attendant hadn't come to pick him up, he even felt a sense of guilt.
Ultimately, the law firm was something special to him from the very beginning.
Sui Cheng touched his wrist; the vines wrapped around his arm wiggled with a hint of pleasure.
He then realized that Lu Zhi could hear their conversation.
The thought of this made Sui Cheng's ears burn. What was the difference between this and confessing to someone face to face?
Sui Ling was unaware of her brother's awkward situation. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Actually, it's quite nice for brother to have someone by his side. It's just that this person doesn't seem very strong, like they can't protect you." But that's alright, her brother is very strong, as long as Lu Zhi doesn't hold her back.
The passenger nodded silently.
Lu Zhi may not seem like a threat, but he is actually quite powerful. If his identity were exposed, he would become the target of all superhumans.
"I'm done washing up." Lu Zhi suddenly interrupted the two siblings' conversation, walking towards them with a smile on his face, clearly showing his very happy mood.
Sui Ling was a little puzzled. Could washing dishes really make someone so happy?
"Xiaoling, let me take you home first."
Seeing that it was getting late, Suicheng decided to take his younger sister home.
The two siblings didn't talk about law enforcement along the way, but instead chatted about ordinary everyday things.
After returning from dropping off his sister, Sui Cheng was not surprised to see Lu Zhi sitting on his bed.
This person seemed to have seized the opportunity; after first finding an excuse to sleep in this bed, he never intended to leave again.
He snorted and said to the lawyer, "Is the bedroom next door just for show?"
Lu Zhi replied casually, "I just think that Captain Sui's bed is very comfortable and large; two people could easily fit in it."
Sui Cheng rolled her eyes, took her pajamas from the closet, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Lu Zhi walked to the bathroom door, leaned against the wall, and asked, "Do you want to repeat what you said to your sister on the balcony?"
The sound of water in the bathroom suddenly became louder, and Sui Cheng started to pretend to be stupid at this time.
"What did you say? I didn't say anything to her."
Lu Zhi snorted, sounding a little aggrieved, "I clearly heard it."
Sui Cheng retorted without backing down, "Since you've already heard it, why are you asking me?"
“It’s different.” Lu Zhi said in a long, drawn-out tone, as if she were being coquettish, “There are some things that are different when you say them to her face versus when you say them to me.”
Accompanying passenger: "..."
"To ride along."
"Um?"
Lu Zhi didn't know what he was trying to say when he called out to him. The words he usually wanted to say seemed pale at this moment.
I had already told him everything about liking and loving him a long time ago.
Even if I say it again now, it won't feel the same as the first time I said it.
So, while the passenger was wondering what he was trying to say, Lu Zhi's mind was filled with lewd thoughts, and he suddenly blurted out, "Have you ever had sex?"
Accompanying passenger: "..."
