Chapter 58 Love Brain
The size was right, bought almost exactly according to her body standards. Chen Zan recalled the fiery teasing in his palm last night. The unbearable and indulgent feeling made her reluctant to let go, and the embarrassment she had just suppressed immediately emerged again.
She covered her cheeks with her hands, not knowing how to walk out of the room.
Until there was a dull knock at the door.
"Zhanzhan?"
Chen Zhan was so frightened that his body trembled, and even his voice was shaking, "Ah..."
"Are you ready?"
"alright……"
Chen Zan didn't dare to dawdle any longer. She stood up and walked towards the door, but her legs still felt a little sore.
She squeezed the door handle and pushed it down, opening the door.
He Jingsui leaned lazily against the door, arms folded across his chest, waiting for her patiently. When the door opened, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes caught the face that appeared from behind the door.
He curled the corners of his lips and casually moved his gaze to the clothes on her body.
After a careful inspection, he frowned in satisfaction. He didn't tease her, but simply took her hand and went to eat with her.
He Jingsui prepared a rich meal for her, a combination of meat and vegetables, rich in nutrition, all of which she liked. He sat across from her and put food into her bowl.
"Eat more and replenish your body."
Chen Zhan watched the food gradually pile up in the bowl. She said with some difficulty, "I can't finish so much."
She had a small appetite to begin with, and after what happened last night, she felt even less like eating.
"Eat more if you can't finish it," He Jingsui said calmly, his eyes sweeping across her fair face. "You don't have much meat anyway."
“…”
It was obviously just an ordinary comment, but at this moment Chen Zan could still recall those restrictive scenes from last night through this sentence. She shyly buried her head in eating, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
In the days that followed, He Jingsui was almost always with Chen Zan, and the two young people lived a sweet little life.
Chen Zan brought painting supplies from home and sat quietly on the sofa to paint during the lazy time every afternoon. He Jingsui liked to hug her from behind, with veins slightly protruding on his strong arms, his cheek pressed against her shoulder, and he gently sniffed the faint fragrance of her body temperature.
His warm breath fanned her neck, causing Chen Zan to shrink her shoulders. She turned around and started to play with him on the sofa. There was still paint on her fingers, and she took the opportunity to smear it on He Jingsui's face. Her curved eyes were filled with a bright smile.
He Jingsui grasped her hand and pressed it on the sofa. The paint on her fingertips melted in their hot palms. He lowered his head to kiss her. Light and shadow danced on their shoulders. In this lazy sunshine, their love grew like vines intertwined, so strong.
Chen Zhan repainted the orange blossom, the pure white color making the flower look noble and elegant. She nestled in He Jingsui's arms, her slender back pressed against his chest, and said to him, "Do you remember the art exhibition I had as a freshman?"
"Yes, I remember."
"That's the painting I was drawing." Chen Zhan said with a smile, "When you said you wanted to come and see my painting, I was so nervous. I was afraid you wouldn't remember it, but I was also afraid you would remember it. No matter how I thought about it, I was afraid of your reaction when you saw it. But then you left halfway through. I was relieved, but also sad that you didn't see the painting."
He grasped her fingertips at her voice.
"But it's all right now," Chen Zhan's eyes curved brightly, "I'll just make up for He's regret, and mine as well."
The flower bloomed pure and flawless on the paper. He Jing curled the corners of his lips, his eyes filled with admiration for Chen Zan, and he kissed her hard on the forehead.
"Our great painter Chen is so kind to me?"
Chen Zhan leaned in his arms, enjoying himself to the fullest. "Of course, Asui, do you believe me? When I hold a solo exhibition in the future, I will exhibit this painting for everyone to see."
The person behind her asked her, "Why are you showing it to others?"
Chen Zhan came out of his arms, knelt on the sofa, turned around, put her arms around his neck, and kissed him quickly when he wasn't paying attention, saying, "Let others see how much I love you."
Feeling that he was teased by her, He Jing chuckled softly. The girl in his arms smiled brightly and lively. He gently hooked his arm and pulled her into his arms again.
At close range, one could see an amusing malice in those dark eyes.
His lazy eyebrows were full of meaning. He curled his lips and continued with her words, "Can I take a look before letting others see it?"
"What are you looking at?"
Before Chen Zan could react, He Jingsui picked her up from the sofa. He didn't even bother to put on his shoes and just carried her into the room.
In the sun-drenched room, they were immersed in gentle light and shadow.
Their breaths mingled between their lips, and she vaguely heard his voice saying, "Look how much you love me."
After finishing, both of them were sweating. There were only the last two items left in the box of daily necessities on the bedside. He Jing then put it in the drawer, but his attention was attracted by something in the small corner of the drawer. He reached out and took them out.
It is a pair of plain rings.
He took Chen Zan's hand out from under the quilt and put one of the rings in his hand on her. The cold ring slid from the fingertip to the base of the finger.
Chen Zhan opened his eyes and saw clearly what he had put on his finger. His heart was startled. "Where did you get this ring?"
"Last time we went to the night market together, we set up a trap," He Jingsui hugged her and asked with a low laugh, "Have you forgotten?"
She remembered, but didn’t she miss the target at that time?
She tried many times but failed.
He Jingsui would not tell her that he had found this little gadget by going back to the small stall and buying a few more rings with money.
There were too many doubts in her misty eyes. She was probably confused by his tricks. He Jingsui smiled and coaxed her, "If you don't remember, then don't remember."
"I don't mind."
“…”
The ring on her finger sparkled in the light, and Chen Zan was completely attracted by it. Her amber eyes were clear and pure. She looked at the ring, her heart beating wildly.
He Jingsui's hands reached over and intertwined with hers, and the two rings touched.
He asked her, "Do you like it?"
The girl in his arms nodded and murmured in a hoarse voice, "I like it. I like it very much."
She looked up at him, the misty color still in her eyes, and said, "A Sui, I will always carry it with me."
It was too conspicuous to wear on the finger, so Chen Zan took it off and strung it with a rope into a necklace and wore it around his neck. The ring was cold against his chest, and soon it became as hot as his heart.
That period of time seemed to pass quickly, and the summer vacation came to an end quietly. Before Lou Yan came back, Chen Zan also returned to his home.
Lou Yan was in great shape on this trip, and she even brought back a lot of local specialties from the coastal city. Chen Zhan helped her unpack her things from the suitcase, moving them bit by bit to the kitchen, where the mother and daughter sorted them out together.
Chen Zhan mentioned that school would start in two days, and asked Lou Yan about her plans for the new semester. She suggested, "Mom, why don't you talk to the school leaders and tell them not to teach the key class this year."
"How can that be possible? The children are still waiting for me to teach them." Lou Yan rejected her suggestion and said to her: "Besides, my physical condition is very good now. Your Aunt Jiang took me out to relax, isn't it also to help me get better as soon as possible."
She knew what she was worried about, so she said, "You don't have to worry about me, Zhanzhan."
Chen Zan knew that Lou Yan had always been very strong-willed, especially when it came to her insisting on something. Once she chose to do something, she would do it to perfection.
No one else can persuade him.
Chen Zhan didn't try to persuade her, but nodded in understanding. However, he still warned her, "Mom, if you're under a lot of pressure at work, don't push yourself, okay?"
"Um."
"If you feel unwell, you must call me immediately."
Lou Yan smiled helplessly, "I see, you're so nagging at such a young age."
In early September, schools began to open one after another.
Chen Zhan returned to the Academy of Fine Arts dormitory and happily reunited with her friends. They were still as lively and playful as ever. Ji Miaomiao was a little tanned by the sun, and Tao Yiran seemed to have gained a lot of weight after the summer vacation. Only He Shiyi was still the same as last year. She gave them all a big hug as soon as she entered the dormitory.
"I really miss you guys so much!!!"
Chen Zan was very happy to be able to ease her relationship with Lou Yan during this summer vacation. She hugged her tightly and said, "I miss you too."
"Then let's go out for dinner tonight!" Tao Yiran suggested, rubbing his hands in anticipation. "I haven't had any delicious food in Jingbei in a long time."
Ji Miaomiao raised her hands in agreement and even said to He Shiyi and Chen Zan, "You two can't refuse!"
"Even if you have a boyfriend, it won't work!" Ji Miaomiao specifically said to Chen Zhan, "Tonight is a girls' party, men can only stand aside!"
“…”
It was such a hilarious statement, Chen Zhan smiled and agreed to her, "Okay, it's a sisterhood, no matter the men!"
The four of them laughed and giggled for a while while packing their things. He Shiyi suddenly came close to her and asked in a low voice, "Are you staying at He Jingsui's house this summer?"
Not knowing how she knew, Chen Zhan's face flashed with a trace of panic that was difficult to conceal, "How... did you know?"
"Jiang Qiannan told me." Seeing that her expression was not right, He Shiyi opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Are you really at her house?"
Chen Zan didn't know how to answer.
A lot of things actually happened this summer. He Shiyi had been living abroad with her parents and didn't know anything. The only thing she knew was Grandpa He's birthday.
She even heard from Jiang Qiannan that Chen Zan was at He Jingsui's house.
Not having received the information from her best friend herself, He Shiyi scolded her coquettishly, "Zhanzhan, are we still sisters after all? You hid such a big thing from me, humph."
“…”
"I didn't mean to hide it from you..." Chen Zhan didn't know how to tell her, but she didn't want to make He Shiyi angry, so she apologized to her first, "I'm sorry Shiyi--"
"What are you apologizing for? Take it back now."
“…”
"If you really feel guilty about me, why don't you tell me first—" As she spoke, she moved closer and asked her in a low and ambiguous voice, "Did you two kiss?"
“…”
This sentence made Chen Zan blush.
They don't just kiss.
Chen Zhan's face flushed red as a tomato as he thought about those days of passionate love. Fortunately, He Shiyi didn't think too deeply about it. What was certain at the moment was that they kissed.
She was a little excited and stuck close to Chen Zhan, "Zhan Zhan, I declare that you will be my only sister-in-law from now on!"
“…”
At the same time, the Sports University dormitory.
Jiang Qiannan was openly complaining about He Jingsui to his other two roommates, "Do you think he's still a human being? He doesn't care about his friends' lives anymore now that he has a girlfriend. We used to be so good, just visiting each other casually to eat, drink and have fun. But what about now?"
He clapped his hands loudly, spread them out helplessly, and a mocking sound escaped from the corner of his mouth, "Oh, that's it."
He snapped at He Jingsui, who was slouching in the chair, and scolded him, "I really misjudged you before. I thought you were a scumbag, but you're actually a love-brained person!"
The love-brained man did not refute, he even ignored Jiang Qiannan's angry scolding, raised his hand to take out the mobile phone on the table, and sent a message to his top contact on WeChat.
He didn't even lift his eyelids.
[He Jingsui: Want to have dinner together tonight? I'll pick you up.]
After waiting for a while without any message from his girlfriend, He Jingsui raised his eyes and looked at him indifferently as if he had nothing to do. He even emphasized it to him again, "So, don't come to my house anymore in the future. It's not good if my girlfriend sees you."
“…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the message on his phone buzzed in.
He looked down.
Chen Zhan: I can't tonight. I have an appointment with my roommate. How about another day?
He Jing then curled the corners of his lips and chuckled.
He flung his phone back onto the table and crossed his legs, his mood still sullen. His lighter fell out of his pocket, and he leaned over to pick it up, flicking it absentmindedly.
The state was sluggish and looked very bad. My sharp-eyed roommate noticed it and asked me something foul-mouthed.
But no one knows him better than Jiang Qiannan.
He curled his lips, put his hand on his shoulder, and said to the roommate: "What else could it be? It must be because of his girlfriend."
Jiang Qiannan spit at him fiercely, "Love-brained!"
Actually, that’s not true.
I am in love with Chen Zhannao.
