Fell In Love With My Older Sister’s Friend - Chapter 55

Xu Luzhi’s voice floated, “Sister, isn’t that inappropriate?”

In the middle of the day, talking about taking clothes off, it’s really embarrassing.

Lin Qingyue chuckled nonchalantly, “What’s inappropriate about it, hmm?”

Clearly, nothing was appropriate. Xu Luzhi lowered her head, her face slowly turning red.

Sister is always like this, so improper.

Always bullying her.

Seeing Xiao Zhizi shyly close her flower bud, Lin Qingyue still wouldn’t let her go. Her voice lightly brushed against her ear, full of a playful smile, “What, scared already?”

“What a little coward.” Lin Qingyue chuckled lightly, her leisurely breath easily audible, an almost blatant provocation.

“Sister!” Xu Luzhi said solemnly, an indescribable annoyance rising in her eyes. Why did she always resort to goading?

She clearly found her annoying, yet insisted on adding fuel to the fire.

Sister really trusted her self-control.

Xu Luzhi muttered with a suppressed laugh, “Fine, I’ll take it off then.”

Before she even finished speaking, she grabbed the hem of her skirt with both hands and lifted it up, about to take it off without hesitation.

Her movements were too hurried, so much so that she forgot to undo the zipper on her side waist.

Lin Qingyue was startled, quickly looked away, and used her free hand to press down on Xu Luzhi’s hands, but still managed to glimpse the beautiful scenery beneath the skirt in an instant.

It was also a matching light green, but different from the pure cotton material before, it seemed to have a trace of lace trim.

Dotting it here and there, hidden yet impossible to ignore.

Tsk.

Lin Qingyue stared straight at the sofa in front of her, calmly pinching the little hand in hers, and gently reprimanded, “Why aren’t you listening?”

Xu Luzhi whined, “You told me to take it off.”

Lin Qingyue burst out laughing, “That was sarcasm, silly.”

“I don’t care, whatever Sister says is the truth,” Xu Luzhi said shamelessly, making a move to take off her clothes again.

Lin Qingyue seemed to have eyes in the back of her head, “Keep taking it off then, I’ve turned around, I can’t see anyway.”

“Oh.” Xu Luzhi puffed up her cheeks in anger, thinking to herself that once she was completely naked, she would suddenly appear in front of Lin Qingyue and surely scare her to death.

For always bullying the little one.

And if she were only wearing an apron while cooking… Xu Luzhi dared not imagine the scene, her little face flushed, and she lowered her long eyelashes.

One hand was held, so Xu Luzhi couldn’t cause trouble. Lin Qingyue stood in front of her, her back to her, wearing only a plain nightgown, yet her curves were still discernible.

She held her breath and concentration, gently took a small step forward, and then another small step.

One hand was held in Lin Qingyue’s palm, held by the slightly cool palm, while the other hand quietly raised, loosely enclosing the slender waist.

At such close proximity, she could almost feel Lin Qingyue’s lower than normal body temperature, so close, so warm.

Xu Luzhi hesitated, drew her hand in a little, and then in a little more, until finally, there was still a few centimeters of distance.

She gave Lin Qingyue a gentle hug from behind, only the seventeen-year-old Xu Luzhi knew.

After all the fuss, Lin Qingyue finally agreed to lend her an apron, but it wasn’t one she usually wore; it was a newly bought one.

The moment Xu Luzhi saw the apron, she understood why Lin Qingyue chose this one for her.

The quality was pretty good, but the pattern on the chest was a huge Samoyed! Creamy white, tilting its head, sticking its tongue out at you.

It was quite cute, but hanging around her neck, it felt somehow endearingly silly.

Xu Luzhi: “…”

She looked at herself in the mirror, didn’t dare to look a second time, and couldn’t help but ask, “Sister, why did you buy an apron like this?”

Lin Qingyue spread her hands, “It wasn’t me who wanted to buy it. The shopkeeper said they were out of the pattern I wanted and gave this one away for free.”

At the time, she thought it was ugly and had kept it shelved, never expecting it would come in handy now.

The young girl in front of her, wearing the silly and cute Samoyed apron, her originally bright and spirited face now also showed a touch of dopey cuteness, making Lin Qingyue unable to resist reaching out to gently pinch her cheek.

Hmm, plump, nice feel.

“Sister!” Xu Luzhi called out in dissatisfaction, covering her eyes with some embarrassment.

Waaaah, she didn’t want to really turn into a puppy, how silly!

Although, although Samoyeds are also really cute.

Woof woof.

Xu Luzhi tied the apron and chased Lin Qingyue out of the kitchen. Honestly, she didn’t want Sister to see her cooking in a dog apron!

Little did she know, Lin Qingyue had already seen it many, many times, and remembered it clearly.

Xu Luzhi tucked the hair hanging by her cheek, skillfully prepared the ingredients, turned on the stove, and lit the fire.

She confidently cracked an egg against the edge of the wok, the egg liquid flowing into the pan, the bright yellow color was particularly pleasing.

Cucumber strips were also cut and poured in, the light green contrasting clearly. The range hood worked efficiently, Xu Luzhi stirred the ingredients back and forth, her slender arm firmly gripping the spatula, a slight sheen of sweat beading on her forehead.

She felt incredibly capable.

This time, she strictly followed the recipe’s steps, ingredients, and measurements, making no mistakes in any step. The result was naturally perfect, just like the chemistry experiments she was familiar with.

Amidst the rising steam, the scrambled eggs with cucumber were served. Xu Luzhi first carefully tasted a piece, confirmed the taste was good, and then happily opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, the long legged beauty was leaning against the doorframe, lazily looking down, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

“Sister, aren’t you hot?” Xu Luzhi asked carefully, holding the plate.

The kitchen was hotter than other areas. After staying in there for a while, her back was covered in sweat.

Lin Qingyue kept her long eyelashes down, not looking at her, and said languidly, “I was waiting for you.”

“Hehe.” Xu Luzhi felt sweet in her heart. While carrying the plate towards the dining table, her heart lingered by Lin Qingyue’s side.

She quickly put down the plate, rushed to Lin Qingyue, and solicitously said, “Are you hot, Sister? Go cool off with the air conditioning!”

Lin Qingyue didn’t answer, her gaze fixed on the young girl in front of her.

Having just gone through a difficult ordeal, Xu Luzhi’s delicate, moist face was now covered in moisture, sweat seeping onto her forehead, and her long hair falling onto her cheeks made her look exceptionally hot, her cheeks completely flushed.

Compared to the neatly tied Samoyed apron, it was naturally charming, a perfect match.

Lin Qingyue burst out laughing, her slender jade like finger lightly tapped between Xu Luzhi’s bangs.

Large beads of sweat kept rolling down Xu Luzhi’s forehead, but Lin Qingyue, as if with some magic, gently brushed over them with her delicate hand, automatically stopping the sweat and cooling her. Xu Luzhi only felt a cool breeze on her face, like a piece of fine cool jade, so comfortable with just a slight touch.

The little one quieted down, stopped talking, and instead half closed her eyes, looking very relaxed, allowing Lin Qingyue to pinch her face repeatedly, treating her like a large toy.

Being with Sister seemed to dispel even the scorching heat.

“Let’s go, let’s go cool off with the air conditioning,” Lin Qingyue took her hand away and said lightly.

Xu Luzhi subconsciously walked forward, then realized that suddenly going into the air conditioning might make her catch a cold.

Lin Qingyue’s occasional meticulousness warmed her heart.

After washing their hands and faces, the two finally sat down to have lunch. The meal was simple, only one dish, and not even rice.

But it didn’t matter much since neither of them ate much. Moreover, the simple scrambled eggs with cucumber, served on a beautiful glass plate, looked like some kind of precious dish, making one’s appetite increase.

Lin Qingyue casually tapped the plate, “These were all ones the boss lady eliminated. She gave them to us employees.”

Xu Luzhi quickly calculated the price in her mind, it was astonishing. Lulu truly was a wealthy benefactor’s sister, very generous.

Her family wouldn’t spend money like this.

“Sister, have a bite, I practiced for a long time!” The girl’s eyes sparkled, sitting opposite Lin Qingyue, her face full of hopeful anticipation.

Lin Qingyue deliberately teased her, “How long?”

Xu Luzhi counted on her fingers, “One or two weeks.”

“And you only learned this?” A smile bloomed on Lin Qingyue’s face, a faint, almost imperceptible mockery.

Xu Luzhi was instantly displeased, she straightened her back, pouted slightly, and said softly, “It’s still better than what you make.”

Lin Qingyue quickly smoothed things over for her, “Yes, Zhizhi is very capable!”

Only then did Xu Luzhi’s face light up again, humming proudly, nodding heavily, “I specifically learned it for Sister!”

She pushed the plate a little closer, “Sister, try it!”

Lin Qingyue looked intently. The colors in the dish were distinct, the layers rich, the egg pieces evenly sized, and the cucumber was perfectly yellow, like something produced on an industrial assembly line, a flawless standard product.

It was probably more delicious than her own failed attempts.

Lin Qingyue picked up a mouthful with her chopsticks and, under the girl’s eager gaze, put it into her mouth without hesitation, chewing carefully.

“How is it?” Xu Luzhi was initially full of confidence, just like when she handed in her exam papers if the process was right, the answer couldn’t be wrong, and the score couldn’t be low.

But facing Lin Qingyue, she was still a little uneasy. Even if the answer was right, would the score still be high?

She saw Lin Qingyue half close her eyes and say nothing. After a while, she picked up another mouthful with her chopsticks.

Xu Luzhi carefully observed the expression on her face, which was placid. She breathed a sigh of relief; this meant it wasn’t unappetizing.

She also happily picked up a mouthful and tasted it. Hmm, it was standardly delicious.

It should be enough to satisfy Lin Qingyue.

Xu Luzhi sat obediently on her chair, waiting for Sister’s praise.

But she watched as Lin Qingyue ate mouthful after mouthful, even showing a slight smile, yet the praise never came.

Whimper.

Xu Luzhi became a little anxious, constantly giving Lin Qingyue meaningful looks with her eyes, but it seemed useless. Sister’s gaze was fixed only on the plate in front of her, not sparing any for her.

Xu Luzhi got impatient, finally snatching the plate away, somewhat petulantly, “You’re not allowed to eat anymore.”

Lin Qingyue looked up, finally meeting the young girl’s eyes, her expression calm, “Hmm?”

Xu Luzhi felt a little guilty, but still stated matter-of-factly, “This dish has a temper.”

This explanation was novel, and Lin Qingyue became a bit interested, tilting her head to ask, “What kind?”

Xu Luzhi said solemnly, “If you don’t praise its owner, it will turn bad.”

“So…” The girl blinked her eyes and smiled slightly, “Praise me, Sister.”

Lin Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then let out a soft laugh.

She knew Xu Luzhi was cute, but she didn’t expect her to be this amusing.

It made one willingly indulge her and agree to all her requests.

The unbelievably sweet child might deserve some praise.
