Chapter 21: The call of brother disturbed his mind



In front of me, a young female comrade in an old military uniform was walking towards me with a bright smile on her face. She was wearing a blue shirt and black pants. Although her skin was a little dark, her face was round and she had two dimples when she smiled. She looked very friendly.

The female comrade was also very familiar and smiled and said, "How do you feel? This medicine was prepared by our village doctor. The effect is super good. Three packets will cure the disease. Unfortunately, I only have one packet left."

The girl's voice was as clear as a bell, and she smiled as she spoke, making people unconsciously infected by her vitality.

"Very good." Zhou Yunwan couldn't help but curl her lips as well, and then she thought of something else and said politely, "Thank you for the medicine."

Zhao Junhong waved her hand: "It's okay, it's just a piece of cake."

"My name is Zhao Junhong, and I'm an educated youth who returned to the city. What about you? Are you also an educated youth?"

In the past two years, educated youth with connections have returned to the city one after another through recruitment, enrollment, and military recruitment. As long as there is a unit in the city to accept them, they can report and return to the city. There have been examples of educated youth returning to the city in Dahe Village before.

Zhou Yunwan shook her head: "No, I'm going back to Beijing with my...brother."

Hearing the "brother" that changed several tones, Shen Yanli stared and tilted his head, his eyes fell on the lips that were opening and closing. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to cover her lips.

...

...

Zhao Junhong didn't notice the weirdness in her tone, but was a little surprised: "Ah, you are brother and sister? I thought..."

At the end of the sentence, she realized that she had said something wrong and shut up at the right time.

"It's okay. We are not siblings. It's normal for you to misunderstand." Zhou Yunwan tilted her head and gave him a charming look. Her delicate voice made his ears numb: "Isn't that right? Brother."

As soon as Chen Yanli lowered his eyes, he could see her face close at hand. The teasing hidden in her beautiful pupils seemed to have hooks, which could easily disturb his mind. Every time he looked at her, the obscurity in his eyes deepened.

And it was not enough for her to tease him verbally. She also gently bumped his arm while talking. The soft touch brushed against the fabric, inexplicably burning his reason and clarity. His eyelashes trembled, and a trace of discomfort spread across his face.

His chest rose and fell slightly, as if he was trying hard to endure something.

Zhou Yunwan carefully observed his changes, and seeing that her goal had been achieved, she couldn't help but smile in her heart. Before he treated her as a sister, he didn't even ask her if she treated him as a brother. Humph, it all depends on whether she teases him or not.

Zhao Junhong had a carefree personality and did not notice the subtle changes in the magnetic field between the two people at all. She just felt that even though the two siblings were not biological children, they had a very good relationship.

"I'm from Beijing, too. I'll be working at the East City Supply and Marketing Cooperative in the future. You can contact me if you have time."

"OK."

The two made an agreement and waved goodbye.

After talking to Zhao Junhong, Zhou Yunwan didn’t know if it was the effect of the medicine, but she felt that she had used up all her remaining energy. She yawned and felt sleepy again.

Zhou Yunwan blinked slowly: "Brother, I will continue to rest."

It was originally an ordinary name, but it had a different meaning when it came out of her mouth, which made Shen Yanli lose his temper. He lowered his hoarse voice by two points: "From now on, just call me Brother Shen."

Zhou Yunwan stared at him for a few seconds, with an interested look on her lips: "What's wrong? Don't you like me calling you brother?"

As she spoke, she smiled and moved closer to him. A faint scent of peach brushed past his nose, the smell of the candy he had just given her.

Shen Yanli took in her cunning smirk.

But he had no way to deal with her, his Adam's apple rolled, and he could only admit defeat: "Whatever you like."

"Oh?" Zhou Yunwan tilted her head, her eyes curved, and she moved closer to him, looking at him innocently and saying, "Can I like anything I want?"

"If I like it..."

Having said this, she paused deliberately, just like the blank space in Chinese paintings, which makes nothing more meaningful and evokes endless reverie.

Seeing that her nose was about to touch his chest, Shen Yanli shrank back and avoided her touch accurately. His face became more gloomy and he narrowed his eyes: "Big Brother Shen and Brother, you can choose one of these two..."

He had a vague feeling that if he didn't interrupt her, she would definitely say something that he couldn't accept.

Zhou Yunwan's curled eyelashes fluttered, and she stopped approaching him, just staring at his stern face with his thin lips tightly pursed, from the curvature of his face, his delicate and strong facial features, to his slender neck and Adam's apple.

The gaze is undisguised and can be described as straightforward.

She looked left and right, up and down. No matter how many times she looked, the man in front of her perfectly met her aesthetic standards. She was a picky person, and if she missed this one, it would be difficult to find another one.

It's such a pity to be a brother.

Staring at his tight jawline, Zhou Yunwan's eyes moved slightly, and she raised her red lips slowly, making a choice: "Then let's just call it brother. I think you prefer me to call you that."

Shen Yanli's eyelids trembled, and he stared at her smile in a daze. His heartbeat became disordered, and he unconsciously clenched his fists, trying to control the heat in his heart.

His throat tightened and his breathing quickened. He didn't know how to answer. The carriage was filled with noise. Her laughter was so light, but it seemed like a spell, making the surroundings instantly silent, with only her voice beating.

By the time he came to his senses, she had already turned around and got on the bed as if nothing had happened and covered herself with the quilt, as if she was not the one who had just set him on fire.

The sound of "brother" echoed in his mind, and he felt his ears itchy for some reason.

Zhou Yunwan lay on the bed sideways like a boneless person, savoring his behavior for two seconds. Someone kept saying that he treated her as a sister, but now that she thought about it, it was not entirely true.

She felt that if she just called him brother a few more times, the person would fall into denial.

Don't worry, they have a long way to go.

With a whistle, the green train slowed down and slowly arrived at its final destination - Beijing.

Unable to contain their excitement, the crowd gradually became agitated. Many of them were waiting at the door with their luggage in hand, scrambling to be the first to rush out of the door.

Until the train came to a complete stop and the conductor opened the door, the wide platform was immediately occupied by passengers. Zhou Yunwan even saw Zhao Junhong's figure in the pushing and shoving crowd. The two greeted each other from a distance, but were quickly dispersed by the crowd.

Zhou Yunwan retracted her gaze and followed closely behind Shen Yanli and Zheng Huaiguo. After finally squeezing out the exit, she had to find the person who was going to pick them up among the thousands of people. She looked around curiously.

The capital is worthy of being the capital, it is much more developed than other places. The most obvious point is that there are obviously more cars on the road, trams running in the middle of the road, and 28-bar bicycles can be seen everywhere.

"Uncle Zheng! Professor Shen!" A young man in a neat green military uniform pushed through the crowd and came up to them.

Zheng Huaiguo patted his arm and said, "It's Xiao Liu. Long time no see."

"The commander sent me to pick you up." Xiao Liu is Shen Dewen's bodyguard. He often meets the two of them and they have become very familiar with each other.

After a brief greeting, they got into the car together. Xiao Liu was a chatterbox and kept chattering on the way about the Shen family's recent situation.

"I heard that you arrived in Beijing today. The chief was discharged from the hospital yesterday. His wounds have healed well, but he still needs to rest for a while. Director Guo also took half a day off today and went to buy groceries himself. He is busy in the kitchen, so he sent me to pick you up."

Xiao Liu was ordered to come and pick someone up, but he only knew that Professor Shen brought a female comrade back from the mountains, allegedly to save the daughter of the soldier whose leader had died.

When the news first came out, some people privately said that Professor Shen was too kind-hearted, and was blinded by the life-saving grace, which brought him into big trouble.

In their general perception, country people are short-sighted, vulgar, know nothing, and love to take advantage of others. The Shen family will definitely not have a peaceful life in the future.

Who would have thought that she was such a pretty lesbian.
