Chapter 96 My sister is missed by her friends

Zhou Jianghai couldn’t remember when he started to like Lu Bailing.

When he was young, he was the only child in the family and felt lonely.

He envied her and wanted to join in when he saw her playing with other children from afar.

He had a dull personality and was older than them, so they couldn’t play together.

But he wanted Lu Bailing to notice him.

So he caught bugs and mice to scare her, and she was indeed different from other girls.

Some girls were so scared that they ran away, but she calmly took out the bugs and mice from her pocket and threw them away.

This aroused Zhou Jianghai’s interest even more.

Until he caught a small snake and gave it to her, she was scared and cried.

He panicked.

Afterwards, he was beaten by his second brother.

He did not fight back, but took the initiative to admit his mistakes and curry favor with his second brother. He successfully gained Lu Mingfeng's trust and could appear beside her openly.

Lu Bailing did not like his approach. Every time she faced him, she was like a little wild cat with its fur standing on end, and was fully defensive towards him.

This time, he went to Lu Mingfeng's house several times and saw the way Lu Mingfeng and his wife got along with each other. He realized that maybe he had used the wrong method.

Mingfeng's wife should have seen through his purpose and gave him some hints.

He found that it worked a little.

...

When it was almost time for Lu Bailing to finish school, Zhou Jianghai ran towards the school with a sled.

Lu Bailing had just finished school when she saw Zhou Jianghai at the school gate.

She wanted to ignore him and leave, but Zhou Jianghai stopped her.

"Get on." Zhou Jianghai put the sled on the ground.

The kids who were leaving school together saw it and envied Lu Bailing.

"Bailing, your brother is so nice to you, he even took you skiing."

"My brother would ask me to do my homework."

"I wish I had a brother like that."

"He's not my brother." Lu Bailing explained.

But her voice was drowned out by the envy of her classmates.

It was tiring to walk back anyway, so Lu Bailing sat on the sled.

Zhou Jianghai tied the rope around his waist, and when Lu Bailing sat down, he started running at a steady pace. Zhou

Jianghai always ran on the snow, so Lu Bailing would be very stable when sitting on the sled.

Lu Bailing, who had nothing to do while sitting on the sled, looked around.

Suddenly, there was a gray shadow in the distance.

Lu Bailing shouted, "Hare! Chase it!"

Zhou Jianghai also saw it, quickened his pace and ran to chase the hare.

When the hare saw someone chasing it, it quickly changed direction and ran away.

Lu Bailing urged Zhou Jianghai to chase it quickly, and Zhou Jianghai also changed direction to chase the hare.

But in this way, the sled board could not always stay on the snow.

"Ah..."

The sled board hit the rocks on the side of the road and flew up.

Lu Bailing fell into the ditch on the side of the road.

Fortunately, the ditch was full of snow.

Zhou Jianghai heard the shouting, stopped and came back to check.

Before Lu Bailing climbed out of the ditch, he shouted, "Don't worry about me, untie the rope, and chase the hare."

Zhou Jianghai hesitated for only a second, then untied the rope and chased the hare.

When Lu Bailing climbed out of the ditch, Zhou Jianghai came back with a rabbit in his hand.

Lu Bailing looked at the hare in Zhou Jianghai's hand with joy.

Zhou Jianghai walked up to her, handed the hare to her, helped her brush the snow off her body, and reached out to touch the snow on her head.

Lu Bailing only had the hare in her eyes now, and didn't care at all that Zhou Jianghai touched her head.

...

Shen Jiale saw Lu Bailing coming back with a confused look on her face, holding a hare in her hand.

"Sister-in-law, we caught a hare on the road."

Lu Mingfeng said, "Jianghai caught it, right?"

Lu Bailing said unconvinced, "I saw it first."

Lu Mingfeng said that he had just eaten meat yesterday, and asked Zhou Jianghai to take this rabbit back to eat slowly with Grandma Zhou.

Lu Bailing looked a little disappointed.

Zhou Jianghai said, "If you want to eat, go to my house."

Lu Bailing shook her head and said, "I still have homework to do."

Zhou Jianghai could tell at a glance that Lu Bailing didn't want to be alone with him.

He smiled and left with the rabbit.

Seeing that Zhou Jianghai didn't even say he would give her half, Lu Bailing stamped her feet in anger.

Lu Bailing was still a little absent-minded while eating.

Lu Mingfeng knocked on her head, "Look at how greedy you are. I don't treat you badly at ordinary times."

Lu Bailing pouted, "I fell into the ditch in order to catch the wild rabbit, and you didn't even give me a single rabbit hair. This is not fair."

Just as she was feeling aggrieved about her sacrifice, she heard a knock on the door.

Lu Mingfeng went to open the door, and it turned out that Zhou Jianghai had sent a plate of cooked rabbit meat.

Lu Mingfeng asked him to come in, but Zhou Jianghai said he had to go back to have dinner with his grandma, so he went back.

Putting the plate in front of Lu Bailing, Lu Mingfeng said, "You have no conscience. This time Jianghai has prepared it for you. After eating, you should return the plate to him, but you must thank him well."

"No problem, no problem." Lu Bailing agreed to everything as long as there was meat to eat.

...

Late at night, Shen Jiale leaned into Lu Mingfeng's arms and asked, "Did you know that Zhou Jianghai likes Bailing?"

"I know. He said he would treat Bailing as someone closer than his own sister."

"I'm not talking about the love between siblings, but the love between men and women."

"No way, Bailing is 5 years younger than Jianghai, and he is an adult, how could he possibly like a little girl like Bailing?"

Shen Jiale looked at Lu Mingfeng in confusion: "You really didn't see it? The way he looks at Bailing is different from the way he looks at you."

Lu Mingfeng carefully recalled Zhou Jianghai's behavior in the past few days and found that the way Zhou Jianghai looked at his sister was very similar to the way he looked at Shen Jiale.

Lu Mingfeng got out of bed in a hurry.

Shen Jiale grabbed his hand and asked, "What are you doing?"

Lu Mingfeng said angrily, "I'm going to find Jiang Hai, you little brat. I treat him as a brother, but he actually set his sights on my sister."

Shen Jiale pulled him to the bed and said, "Apart from the age difference, Zhou Jianghai is actually a very good person."

"What's good about that? He's so old, and he still wants to have sex with young girls."

Shen Jiale smiled, "Aren't you older than me?"

Lu Mingfeng hugged Shen Jiale and kissed her, "Wife, I'm only 3 years older than you, not that old."

Shen Jiale advised, "Don't interfere too much in this matter. Zhou Jianghai is a sensible person. Bailing is still young, and she is quite resistant to him."

"It's right to resist him. Bailing must have seen his true colors. This guy hid it very well and deceived me."

Shen Jiale remembered that in her previous life, Lu Bailing did not marry Zhou Jianghai. She married to a neighboring village early and lived a hard life.

Since Zhou Jianghai liked Lu Bailing, how could he watch his beloved girl get married?

In her previous life, she didn't get along with everyone, so she didn't know what happened.

Shen Jiale liked this sister-in-law very much and hoped that she would be happy in the future.

Instead of marrying to a neighboring village and becoming a peasant woman, Lu Bailing might as well marry Zhou Jianghai.

At least her future life won't be too hard.

Of course, the premise is that Lu Bailing also likes Zhou Jianghai.
