电车狼

During this time, Jiang Zhi made countless phone calls to his mother, slowly convincing her that he wasn\'t actually a kidnapper as she suspected.0

Both of them had fairly light skin originally, so the change in color was quite noticeable.0

When they first met, Jiang\'s Mom was startled. She forgot about her previous anger and hurriedly took Jiang Yan for skincare treatment, fretting non-stop: "Why didn\'t you remember to use sunscreen? Young girls have such delicate skin, it would be terrible if you got sunburned..."0

As for Jiang Zhi, who was equally tanned, his mother disdainfully said: "I couldn\'t have given birth to such a dirty-looking son."0

Though he had only gotten a bit darker, he was compared to a beggar. Jiang Zhi was speechless, but didn\'t argue, considering it was rare for his mother to speak to him at all.0

He turned and went to Jiang Yan\'s bedroom, deciding to tease her: "Little sister, interested in a handsome dark-skinned guy? Only 180 yuan per night."0

Jiang Yan spread her hands, pretending to be poor: "I\'m still young, my parents don\'t give me money."0

The way she said it, as if she were an innocent young girl being taken advantage of, made Jiang Zhi\'s mouth go dry.0

Jiang Zhi stopped in the middle of closing the door, afraid that if they did anything at home, his mother would kill him. But he couldn\'t help continuing verbally: "If you\'re a good girl, big brother will give you a free night, how about that?"0

Jiang Yan: ...0

Jiang Zhi found Jiang Yan\'s reaction somewhat amusing, but suddenly realized something was off — the girl\'s expression of discomfort was growing more intense. He had already acted inappropriately several times on the island, and Jiang Yan had developed some immunity to it, so she shouldn\'t be reacting this strongly...0

As if reliving a scene where he\'d been caught red-handed, Jiang Zhi slowly turned his head to see Jiang Xian standing in the doorway, her face filled with shock.0

Jiang Xian opened and closed her mouth without saying anything, but her eyes fully conveyed what she wanted to express. It ranged from "You\'re really my brother and you dare to mess with my sister" to "How dare you act so shamelessly towards a young girl in broad daylight" to "You\'re so inhuman, I can\'t believe we share the same last name, I must have the worst luck in eight lifetimes..."0

In front of his mother, Jiang Zhi could still endure it, knowing his behavior had long been seen through.0

But in front of his sister Jiang Xian, Jiang Zhi truly felt his image was irreparably damaged. His hand gripped the doorframe and shook twice. Jiang Xian\'s vigilant gaze immediately followed, leaving him unsure whether to close the door or not.0

Jiang Zhi turned to look at Jiang Yan, only to find the heartless girl sitting there, looking at them with wide eyes, still pretending to be innocent.0

Jiang Zhi was pulled into the hallway by Jiang Xian, where he endured his sister\'s anguished questioning, as well as the scrutinizing gaze of Jiang\'s Mom as she deliberately passed by.0

...0

The little couple who had agreed to never get angry with each other just half a month ago had their first cold war that evening.0

Before the cold war began, Jiang Zhi entered Jiang Yan\'s room and coldly said to her: "Jiang Yan, you\'re in trouble. You\'re doing this to me again, aren\'t you? I\'m telling you, I\'m angry. I\'m serious. You\'d better come and coax me tonight."0

"I don\'t want to argue with you. I\'m taking your doll with me. I\'m very angry today, I\'ll come back to coax you tomorrow morning."0

Jiang Yan was still confused when she saw the angry Jiang Zhi grab her favorite cat-shaped body pillow that she loved to hug while sleeping. As he left, he gave her a meaningful glare.0

If he was angry, that was fine, but why did he have to take her doll...0

Following Jiang Zhi\'s multiple hints, Jiang Yan sneaked out of her room to find him.0

The lights downstairs were all off. Afraid of attracting Jiang\'s parents\' attention, Jiang Yan didn\'t dare turn on the lights. She tiptoed to Jiang Zhi\'s door, suddenly feeling like she was having an illicit affair.0

Afraid of making noise, Jiang Yan carefully turned the doorknob, opening a small gap.0

The soft light from the room suddenly spilled out, reflecting on the floor, as if representing Jiang Yan\'s entry into a secret realm.0

Faint traces of conversation could be heard from inside. Was Jiang Zhi on the phone with someone?0

Jiang Yan opened the door wider, squeezing half her body in, and finally saw Jiang Zhi\'s figure.0

The long cat-shaped body pillow was pressed against the bedside table by Jiang Zhi, looking very much like it was bowing its head in apology.0

And Jiang Zhi was lying in front of the pillow, coldly scolding this speechless cat: "...Heartless thing, I\'ve told you I\'m angry, I\'m angry! I\'ve made it so obvious, and you still don\'t know to come and coax me?"0

"Jiang Yan, you\'re something else, aren\'t you? Don\'t you believe I\'ll sit here waiting for you all night?"0

Jiang Yan pushed open the door with a complex expression.0

Jiang Zhi seemed to freeze for a moment, but in the next second, he turned around as if nothing had happened, his expression cool and indifferent.0

Jiang Yan closed the door and walked towards him, saying: "I\'m here to coax you now."0

Jiang Zhi seemed unsure how to forgive Jiang Yan, so he simply didn\'t speak.0

Jiang Yan picked up the cat pillow he had placed on the table and held up its short legs towards him: "She knows she was wrong. She\'s saying sorry to you. Will you forgive her?"0

Jiang Zhi had so little experience being coaxed that the cold expression on his face immediately disappeared.0

But he snatched the cat pillow from Jiang Yan\'s arms, as if taking it hostage behind his back, and threatened Jiang Yan with an unreasonable demand: "Kiss me, quickly."0

He sat on the bed, and Jiang Yan could finally be a little taller than him. So she very seriously lowered her head and kissed him.0

The problem was that Jiang Zhi had realized his feelings too late, and the one he held dear was a girl younger than him, so his experience was pitifully lacking. Just this one kiss nearly overwhelmed him.0

...0

Jiang\'s Mom had overheard the two "arguing" last night and was overjoyed. She thought that if they could get all their conflicts out before getting married, they might come to their senses and change their minds.0

But the next morning, much to Jiang\'s Mom\'s disappointment, her good-for-nothing son cut an armful of roses from her garden early in the morning and ran upstairs excitedly to give them to Jiang Yan.0

However, after Jiang Zhi\'s figure disappeared behind the door, Jiang\'s Mom sighed and couldn\'t help but smile. After observing for so many days, she could see that Jiang Zhi really cared about Jiang Yan...0

Perhaps they would find their own way.0

Early in the morning, Jiang Yan received the precious roses from Jiang\'s Mom\'s garden and couldn\'t help but gasp: "Mom will be angry if she sees this!"0

Jiang Zhi no longer cared and started putting the fresh, dewy roses into the vase in Jiang Yan\'s bedroom one by one: "Don\'t worry, she already scolded me when I was coming up."0

Jiang Yan: ...0

"As we agreed, I\'m apologizing to you now. Everything was my fault, don\'t be angry," Jiang Zhi said.0

Jiang\'s Father was probably the most steady person in the family. Apart from scolding Jiang Zhi earlier due to Jiang\'s Mom\'s accusations, he hadn\'t said much else.0

In fact, he even tried to persuade Jiang\'s Mom to be more open-minded. He said: "Think about it, now our daughter can always live in our house! We won\'t have to worry about her being bullied after getting married. If Jiang Zhi dares to bully her, our whole Jiang family will gang up to deal with him..."0

He spoke as if Jiang Zhi wasn\'t part of the family. But these words were effective; at least Jiang\'s Mom\'s tone softened considerably.0

At this point, almost everyone in the Jiang family had tacitly accepted the situation.0

As a result, when Jiang Zhi returned to school, he was in high spirits.0

Song Shiyu was slow to realize something was amiss.0

That day, he laughed and asked Jiang Zhi to bring his sister to watch the basketball game. Jiang Zhi agreed, but throughout the game, Song Shiyu didn\'t see them.0

Sweat evaporated on the court, passion burned in the stands, and the atmosphere was noisy and chaotic.0

During halftime, Song Shiyu grabbed a white towel to wipe his sweat, walking towards the bathroom while wiping.0

In the back corridor of the indoor stadium, he saw two people.0

One had a petite figure with sweet features, a sight he often recalled; the other had a build similar to his own, his most proud and indifferent roommate...0

At this moment, he was holding the young girl\'s hand.0

Song Shiyu desperately tried to attribute the overly intimate scene before him to sibling affection, but just then, the shameless Jiang Zhi said, "Give me a kiss, won\'t you? What\'s so interesting about watching Song Shiyu play ball?"0

Jiang Yan pursed her lips. "No. If you\'re not going to watch, let\'s go back..."0

As she spoke, a noise came from the end of the hallway. Someone was coming!0

Jiang Yan\'s eyes widened in surprise.0

Around the corner, Song Shiyu kicked a couple of cardboard boxes piled at the edge of the hallway and stomped back to the court, his face twisted in anger.0

If there\'s nothing interesting about watching Song Shiyu play ball, what\'s so great about you two kissing?0

In the second half, Song Shiyu played as if he\'d taken performance-enhancing drugs. Every move was executed with fierce intensity, the ball repeatedly slammed into the hoop and dropping through with brutal force...0

Song Shiyu was playing so aggressively that their opponents were completely overwhelmed.0

The spectators in the stands were swept up in the excitement and passion, waving their arms and screaming Song Shiyu\'s name at the top of their lungs.0

In the nearly empty hallway, Jiang Zhi took the young girl\'s hand, intending to take her out for a meal.0

With her hand held by Jiang Zhi, Jiang Yan stopped paying attention to where she was walking and took out her phone to type something.0

Jiang Zhi silently acted as her guide for a moment, but suddenly felt a sense of crisis. He leaned over to peek at her screen and frowned, asking, "Who are you chatting with? Right in front of your boyfriend?"0

As luck would have it, what he saw was Jiang Yan changing his contact name.0

Next to Jiang Zhi\'s aloof and inscrutable ocean-themed profile picture, the contact name now read "Little Girlfriend."0

Jiang Zhi squeezed Jiang Yan\'s hand and narrowed his eyes, his tone dangerously playful as he asked, "What\'s the meaning of this?"0

Jiang Yan replied matter-of-factly, "You\'re always calling me \'little girlfriend,\' so why can\'t I call you that too?"0

Clearly, it was just another of Jiang Yan\'s inexplicable whims.0

However, the term "little girlfriend" applied to Jiang Zhi gave him an odd feeling, as if Jiang Yan had somehow gotten the upper hand.0
