Luosangâs eyes widened as she gargled. âDonât be ridiculous.â
Without talking, Nian Junting walked around the living room and opened the TV cabinet. A bunch of barbecued snacks fell out. There were roasted eggplant, barbecued lamb skewers, and chicken wings...
âAre you planning to feed my baby these?â Nian Junting questioned her. âI donât think pregnant mothers can eat these. Barbecued foods from the outside are extremely dirty. Havenât I told you before? They use recycled sewage oil. The fish are not fresh and the chickens are injected with steroids. You are harming our little princess.â
1Luosang lowered her head in guilt. âI only had a bit of roasted eggplant. The rest are for Su...â
âYeah, theyâre all mine.â Yan Su nodded her head quickly.
âI donât buy it. These are too little for just you.â Nian Junting threw all the food into a trash bag. âIâm seriously thinking you went out for supper last night behind my back.â
âNo, I didnât.â
âAnyway, I canât let you live alone anymore,â Nian Junting said coldly. âSince you donât think itâs convenient for me to stay with you two, Iâll stay next door with your brother. We can go back to the villa when you donât have classes.â
âDonât.â Luosang was about to break down. She was looking forward to her freedom. âThe apartment is too small and thereâs not enough space for your precious body. My brother wouldnât enjoy staying with you.â
âIâll have to live with you then,â Nian Junting said insistently.
âGo stay with Liuxi then,â Luosang said softy.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nian Junting grunted then walked over next door.
âWhat do you want?â Mo Liuxi was obviously unwelcoming towards him.
âNext time your sister goes to class, Iâm going to be tagging along. It inconvenient for the girls if I stayed with them so Iâm planning to stay with you,â Nian Junting said casually. âDonât you have three rooms?â
âIâm sorry. I prefer to live on my own and weâre not that familiar with each other,â Mo Liuxi said, rejecting his proposal.
âI guess I have to call mother then.â Nian Junting fished out his phone. âDo you think I want to live with you? Your sister doesnât listen to me and she keeps feeding herself junk food...â
âAll right, you can stay with me.â Mo Liuxi had a headache. Mo Jin would definitely say yes to his request since it was for the benefit of her daughter.
âDonât worry. Your sister doesnât have many modules. Iâll only be staying for three days every week, up to November at the most.â
âOk.â Mo Liuxi was annoyed.
...
Luosang already had some of Nian Juntingâs clothes at her apartment, so they didnât have to go shopping for more things. He quickly moved over in about ten minutes.
âYou should rest early. Iâm going back,â Luosang said. Nian Junting grabbed her wrist before she could leave.
âSleep here tonight.â
The man was looking at her seductively and sounded bossy.
Luosang was speechless. âIt would be as if I moved over too. Liuxi enjoys his peace and quiet. If I move over, we would be imposing on him.â
âI guess I should move over to your place then...â
1âWhy are you so troublesome?â Luosang was glaring at him. âIf you donât want to stay here, go back to the villa, but donât bother the three of us, especially when weâre still in school.â
Nian Junting frowned. âThen stay here a little longer. Lu Kang is over there. Give him some time to talk to Yan Su.â
Mo Liuxiâs hand quivered as he held his coffee mug.
â...Ok.â Luosang gave it some thought. It would be good to give Lu Kang some time to talk to Yan Su. âLiuxi, do you mind me sitting here for a while more?â
âWhatever. Iâm going to the study.â Mo Liuxi was carrying his coffee and walking into the study.
Luosang looked at his back and recalled what Yan Su said to her today; she began to worry.
If her brotherâs sexual orientation was normal, it wouldnât be healthy for him to be looking at these photos all the time.
Something would go wrong if this continued.
She thought about it, then went back to her apartment to retrieve a few books before she walked into the study.
âWhere are you going? Canât you keep me company for a little while longer?â Nian Junting grabbed her grumpily.
âIâm going to talk to Liuxi for a bit.â Luosang knocked on the study room.
âCome in.â
When Luosang walked in, Mo Liuxi close the lid of his laptop.
Was he watching those things again?
Luosang began to worry again. Xiao Si enjoyed those photos too; he was still single until now.
âWhatâs the matter?â Mo Liuxi looked over at her.
âOh, what are you busy with?â Luosang tried her best to ask casually.
â...Just reading some class material.â
Mo Liuxi looked away. He was reading about things relating to men and women. He was taken aback by what happened in the morning, and he wanted to find a way to control himself. If it happened again, he would feel like an animal.
Luosang was staring at her brother; he looked a tad unnatural. She was even more certain of her assumption.
âLiuxi, I have some books that I find quite good. You can read these if you have time.â
Donât watch those things.
âOk.â Mo Liuxi took the books from her and placed it on the side of the table.
After a while, he noticed that Luosang hadnât left yet. He frowned and asked, âAnything else?â
âUm... well, since you are in university now, you should enjoy yourself while you have the chance to. You should go around and make some friends...â
âI think Yan Su is your only friend. Am I right?â Mo Liuxi interrupted her.
â...â
That stung.
She wanted to make friends, but she always invited jealousy and envy from her peers.
âI donât want you to be like me,â Luosang said sincerely. âIt would nice to have some friends at the university. Itâs still possible to make true friends here, unlike out there in the working world in the future. Relationships in the future will be a lot more complicated and the girls will be more realistic. If you could meet someone true to and you have feelings for, you can try getting into a relationship. Although you are an exchange student, I hope you will stay in the country in the future. Besides... you should do more aerobic exercises, itâs good for your body and mind.â
âOk.â Mo Liuxi nodded his head.
âAlso...â Luosang was about to break down but she still forcefully sputtered. âIf you have those desires... you can talk to your brother-in-law about it. He was a virgin for over thirty years and he still managed fine. Heâs more experienced in that aspect.â
Mo Liuxiâs expression suddenly froze.
He stood up abruptly and his gaze was piercing.
âWhat did Yan Su tell you today?â
Yan Su must have told Luosang about what happened in the lift in the morning. How could she go around telling people about something so private?
He thought they were even after what happened at the school gate.
Luosang was shocked that Liuxi reacted so strongly to what she said. She thought whatever Yan Su had told her must have been true.
She couldnât admit to it. She didnât want to strain Yan Suâs relationship with her brother anymore.
