Episode 2 Addiction
"This is Mr. Jiang's sister! He asked her to stay for a few days and not to be disturbed by anyone."
After hearing what Liu Ma said, Xiao Lu's face froze and his momentum instantly dropped.
Lin Ying also saw through the identity of the visitor - she was not Jiang Shu's girlfriend, but his bed partner, and this villa was also their regular meeting place.
Judging from her usual arrogant tone, Jiang Shu must have had more than one bed partner, right?
"Hello, I'm Lin Ying."
"What kind of sister are you? Why don't you have the same last name as him?"
"He takes his mother's surname. Aunt Jiang is my stepmother, so we are considered a family."
Xiao Lu smiled unnaturally, "Oh... so you're a fake sister."
The atmosphere seemed too tense. Xiao Lu was so hostile to her, obviously treating her as another competitor.
It was Aunt Liu who quietly called Jiang Shu and, as expected, Xiao Lu's phone rang a short while later. She picked up the phone and spoke softly:
"Hello, Mr. Jiang? ...Didn't you say I can stay here anytime I want?"
"You didn't tell me my sister was here, so there's no conflict. I can stay in the master bedroom."
"I'm not making a fuss. Anyway, I'm here now, and I'm not going back, unless... you come and comfort me?"
She hung up the phone, still looking indifferent, and smiled innocently at Lin Ying:
"Don't be offended. Your brother didn't tell you about your situation in advance. Do you mind if we live together for a few days?"
Lin Ying shook her head, appearing calm on the surface, but curious inside, "Will my brother come tonight?"
She shrugged. "That depends on whether he wants it or not. I've dated so many men, and your brother's skills in bed are among the best... I'm a blunt person, so don't be offended. Men are usually restrained, and they only get excited when they're doing something serious."
Xiao Lu can speak such explicit words as if no one is around. He is really free and easy.
They are all adults, so there is nothing wrong with this. However, Jiang Shu is her brother after all, and it is inevitable that she will feel embarrassed if she blurts out their private matters so bluntly.
However, that night, her embarrassment seeped into the bathroom of her second bedroom along with Xiao Lu's moans next door.
Lin Ying was unsure at first, but the gentle and excited voices soon made her realize that something was wrong. It wasn't until she overheard the ambiguous names in the bathroom that Lin Ying finally confirmed what the two people in the master bedroom were doing. The sound of running water seeped into her moans and also spread to the pores of Lin Ying next door...
She shouldn't have eavesdropped, but these cries of joy were like raging waves, like accidentally turning on the shower head and letting the hot water pour over her head without restraint...
That was the sound she would never dare to make when she was intimate with her husband.
Thinking about this, she realized that it had been a while since she had been intimate with Yan Yiming.
Although she had known her husband for a long time, they only started dating and got married after college. At that time, she was simple-minded and did not dare to do such a thing before marriage. On the wedding night, they went home and fell asleep.
It was a daytime wedding, and she had been up and dressed since three in the morning. He left at five, and he had been complaining all day about how restrictive the suit was, not realizing she had already endured nearly twelve hours of wearing a corset and a skirt that weighed nearly ten pounds...
They didn't officially have sex until the next morning.
It was their first time, and both of them were unfamiliar with it, but the man always felt more pleasure than the woman. He reached his climax very quickly, but Lin Ying felt nothing.
After that, this mediocre feeling seemed to continue.
Every time she tried her best to make the other person happy, she would realize it too late, or he would come early just when she was about to, so they could not enjoy it at the same time.
She would never ask for it, let alone force him to do anything for her. Even the foreplay was just a couple of times, as long as it was convenient for them to do it smoothly.
This is normal. To put it bluntly, this is just a process.
She had never enjoyed sex, never experienced an orgasm, and didn't understand why Xiao Lu was moaning so unrestrainedly...
Bang——
She simply turned on the shower head, and the rain fell, soaking her whole body.
Black hair flows along her waist and hips, clinging to and entwining herself. She imagines that this is someone's passionate caress, water flowing down her hip groove, flowing through the hidden forest, flowing through the stream, dripping and pouring...
Try to imagine what it would feel like to orgasm. What would it feel like? Uncontrollable convulsions, brain nerve blockage, and incoherent screaming...
It would be great if someone could take her to see it once.
There is too much water and the rain is too heavy.
It washed away all her feelings.
All I am left with is a mess.
She fell into the bathroom and the noise from next door stopped.
The rain in her heart should stop.
But the addiction in her heart was aroused.
It was a failed attempt, but she felt the urge to please herself.
She forgot to get up, her mind seemed to be filled with water, she was confused, until she heard someone knocking on her door, she stood up half asleep, her calves were weak, she draped a bathrobe around her, tied it casually at the waist, her hair was wet and wandering on her back, her fingers mechanically opened the door -
Standing outside the door was Jiang Shu, who had taken off his leather shoes and was wearing home clothes, but still looked respectable.
Her heart trembled - in the past half hour, she seemed to have made love to him completely in her mind, vaguely and obscurely.
And now, he appeared in front of his door dressed like this, with his hair half wet, completely different from his usual neat and serious style.
Lin Ying's attire was equally sloppy at the moment, the knot on her belt hanging loosely, so that the outline of half her chest was hidden under her wet hair, coiled around her body like a snake's tongue...
"Excuse me, are you in the shower?"
He politely withdrew his gaze from her.
She quickly hugged the clothes and lowered her eyes, "I've finished washing. Is there anything wrong?"
"Xiao Lu will move back tomorrow and won't bother you anymore."
“…No, I’m disturbing you by staying here.”
"That's not the case. You can stay here peacefully."
After saying that, he closed the door and returned to the master bedroom.
Xiao Lu was lazily lying on the bed, half-hidden. When she saw him coming back, she rolled over happily and acted coquettishly towards him:
"You care so much about what she thinks? Is there any need to explain it specifically? You drove me away, weren't you just to be with her? I heard she's not your biological sister..."
"Okay, keep your promise and move back tomorrow."
As soon as he sat on the bed, Xiao Lu suddenly reached out and hugged his neck from behind, turned his face, and kissed his lips fiercely, which she had kissed countless times. However, Jiang Shu had lost interest and after perfunctorily answering, she seemed to question him -
"Did you scream so loudly on purpose?"
"Why? Don't you like hearing people call you the most?"
"I told you there's someone next door, so I asked you to control yourself."
Xiao Lu was dissatisfied, "How can I control it? Shouldn't you be the one who should be in control?"
Jiang Shu was too lazy to reply to her and was about to push her away when she deliberately whispered in his ear, "What? Are you embarrassed that your sister heard you having sex with another woman?"
“That’s enough!”
He suddenly raised his voice, pushed the person away, and shouted sternly: "Say that again, get out!"
"I'm not leaving. We agreed that tonight would be the last time and I'd leave tomorrow. If you let me go now, I'll come back tomorrow!"
He hadn't planned to come tonight, but when he received an uninvited call from Xiao Lu, she not only refused to listen to his advice, but also threatened him to come and sleep with her for one night, and leave early the next morning, and never bother her again.
Before doing it, she insisted on going to the bathroom and acted more excited than usual. It can't be said that she was pretending, but there was definitely an element of deliberate exaggeration.
The next morning, Jiang Shu asked the driver to take Xiao Lu home, while he took the responsibility of taking Lin Ying to work.
"Excuse me, brother. Just drop me off near the intersection of Donghu Road and Changle Road. I'll walk to the company by myself to save you from getting stuck in traffic. The road there is narrow and it's hard to get through during the morning rush hour."
Lin Ying has always been like this. Behind his careful consideration is just an excuse for not wanting to trouble others.
"The company has been busy lately, and I want some quiet time. I might go back to the villa and stay for a few days."
"Okay." Lin Ying responded immediately, "Then I'll ask Aunt Liu to make you some delicious food. What do you like?"
"Don't worry, I invited Aunt Liu because her cooking skills are good. I hope you can get used to the food these few days."
Yes, that was Jiang Shu’s house, and it was also the aunt hired by Jiang Shu. It was not her turn to worry about it.
"I'm used to it. Aunt Liu's cooking skills are great. She understands my taste better than my aunt."
"Your nanny has spent so much time with you, how could she not be able to make the flavors you like?"
Lin Ying lowered her eyes. "Aunt Wu was chosen by my mother-in-law. Her taste is more to their liking, on the sweet side, but... that's not a big deal."
"Since I'm looking for you two, just tell me what you want. Don't be so strict."
She knew that Jiang Shu was pointing out that she was too humble, but it wasn't that she didn't dare to bring it up. It was just that it was useless to bring it up. After all, every time Ren Jiahui came over, she would miraculously change her taste back to normal.
As a junior, it's not easy for her to go against her elders. What's more, Yan Song and Lin Jidong are good friends, and Ren Jiahui used to care about her. Now they have become a real family, so it's even harder for her to go against them.
"Brother, do you like that little Lu?"
Lin Ying changed the subject, causing Jiang Shu to pause.
"Not really."
"Besides her, do you have anyone else?"
"It's just her for now. I don't like changing it so often."
He admitted it very frankly, without any warmth at all, as if it was not something difficult to talk about.
"Then...why don't you just find someone you like and settle down?"
Hearing this question, Jiang Shu's eyes relaxed.
He is 28 years old this year. Since graduating and returning to China, he has been helping his mother at Jianglin Group. Now he is gradually taking over his parents' resources. He is considered the future general manager of the group and is highly valued.
He seemed to have never cared about matters like love and marriage. Every time his mother mentioned it, he would evade the question. I heard that he had been dating privately before, but he had only a handful of girlfriends who were publicly known to the public.
He sneered, "Not everyone is as lucky as Yan Yiming to have met someone you admire so early on. If the person I like also likes me, I will overcome all difficulties to marry her."
"So... you have someone you like?"
It happened that Jiang Shu turned, got off the overpass, and the traffic was even worse after merging into the small road. It is always difficult to get through Jufuchang during this period of time.
Lin Ying simply requested, "It's starting to get congested. I'll get off the bus. Can you turn right and continue onto the elevated highway?"
After saying that, she observed the cars coming from the front and behind. As soon as the car stopped, Lin Ying pulled the seat belt and got out, leaving Jiang Shu no room to persuade her.
Before returning to the villa that night, Lin Ying bought some fruit. Entering the kitchen, she discovered that the person busy at work wasn't Aunt Liu, but Jiang Shu himself. He was wearing a half-high-necked cashmere inner layer, slicing fish at the counter. Seeing what Lin Ying was carrying, he instructed—
"Mrs. Liu will prepare the fruit. You don't have to buy any special fruit. Just come back directly after get off work."
Lin Ying disagreed, "Didn't you say you'd come back to stay for a few days? Aunt Liu's wrist is not feeling well, so she can't lift heavy groceries. I might as well bring some fruit home, enough for the three of us."
After saying this, Lin Ying couldn't help but realize that she had said similar things to Yan Yiming more than once or twice before. But the person she was talking to now, and the "home" she mentioned, made her feel a little lost for a moment...
Hearing this, Jiang Shu pointed at her seriously, "You seem to have a strong sense of ownership when you come to live here."
Lin Ying's ears turned red, and she quickly explained, "You are the owner of this place, and I am your sister, so I count as half."
Jiang Shu knew that Liu Ma was unhappy with her skills. After picking the vegetables, Jiang Shu let her rest and took over the task of cooking.
"So you can cook?"
Looking at his skillful knife skills, it was really beyond Lin Ying's expectation - he was so busy at work every day, and he came here just for physical relaxation. She thought that this rich young man didn't have to do any housework on weekdays.
He said: "I was able to survive in the United States back then, all thanks to my hands that knew how to cook Chinese food."
Lin Ying laughed out loud, then realized that it seemed like she hadn't been alone with him in a space for a long time. Unlike the cramped space in the car, the spacious space in the kitchen seemed to make both of them feel a lot more comfortable.
Even when Jiang Shu realized that his clothes might be stained with oil and asked Lin Ying to get him an apron, in order to prevent Jiang Shu from washing his hands unnecessarily, she chose to put on the apron for him herself...
Then, she washed the strawberries, picked off the green leaves, and put one in her mouth. It was fresh, juicy, sweet and sour, and she couldn't help but urge Jiang Shu to taste it.
"This strawberry is delicious, would you like to try it?"
Jiang Shu was busy handling the smelly raw meat with both hands, so Lin Ying simply picked the reddest one and put it close to his mouth. "Let me feed you?"
However, when her fingers felt his breath, Lin Ying realized that this was not right... He still opened his lips and took the strawberry in, and her fingertips trembled slightly...
In just a moment, the warmth of his lips touched her fingertips in a light kiss.
An almost insignificant touch.
The water droplets on her fingers seemed to come alive, sucking her alive, as if they were entangled in her breath, and their tongues touched...
But in reality, nothing happened.
"Sorry... I mistook you for Yiming."
She explained stiffly, not daring to look him in the eye, but Jiang Shu seemed not to care at all.
"It's really delicious. Where did you pick it? Next time I'll ask Aunt Liu to buy it there."
"I know the owner of the fruit stand near the company. If you want to try some, I'll buy an extra one and send it to you next time."
"Why send it to me? Can't you just give it to me directly?"
He had already processed the raw meat with familiarity, and his eyes caught her evasive gaze, as if he was determined to get an answer from her.
"I'm afraid I won't be free. I'll be back next week. When Yiming is at home, he always urges me to go back for dinner before I get off work."
After Jiang Shu finished processing all the raw meat, he put down his knife and asked, "Do you regret marrying him?"
"...What are you talking about?"
"I still haven't forgotten what you said when you cried in my car during the last rainstorm."
"Didn't I tell you not to worry about it?"
"You're crying so hard, how could I not care?"
Lin Ying's eyes were dodging, but subconsciously she wanted him to continue asking questions. However, even if she continued asking, it seemed that there would be no answer...
Although they have called each other brother and sister for more than ten years, their relationship is mediocre and lukewarm.
A little more seems deliberate; a little less seems unfamiliar.
But Jiang Shu is always the one who takes the initiative to adjust the situation, not only in his relationship with her, but also with others.
From any angle, he was a complete pretender. And this disguise seemed willing to open a gap for her, however obscure.
"Aying, since you consider me your brother, don't hide from me no matter what happens in the future."
