The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush

Chapter 140

After buying everything, Yu Na hurried home before dusk.

When she got home, grandpa and grandma had already prepared dinner, even more abundant than lunch.

In the afternoon, Yu Na had eaten all the way at the market. She wanted to eat everything but only ate half of each thing.

As Xiao Chen had predicted, he ate all the other halves she had left.

So neither of them was very hungry now.

But they didn’t want to ruin the mood, so they forced themselves to eat dinner, just very slowly.

After eating and taking a bath, Yu Na completely relaxed after closing the bedroom door.

Although the elders treated her very well, she still couldn't fully let her guard down.

With only Xiao Chen in the room, she snuggled into the quilt. Xiao Chen followed right after and snuggled in too.

Yu Na’s feet were frozen cold even though she had worn thick snow boots.

As soon as this walking hot water bottle snuggled in, she lifted her feet onto Xiao Chen's legs without saying anything.

"Ow!" His body shuddered.

She smiled mischievously, rubbing her feet on his legs.

"Xiao Chen."

"What?" He hugged her into his arms, very naturally transferring his warmth to her body.

"Do you know about the 10-second eye contact rule between men and women?"

"No."

"It's said that if they maintain eye contact for more than 10 seconds, the man will definitely kiss the woman."

"Hmm?" Xiao Chen had never heard of such a saying. He was surprised for two seconds at first, then quickly became skeptical. "Impossible."

"I think it makes sense." Yu Na snuggled deeper into his arms. "Let's try it?"

Xiao Chen said, "Boring, I won't try."

Yu Na deliberately provoked him, "It seems you still don't dare."

Xiao Chen said, "What's there to not dare?"

"Then try it!"

"Let's try it then!" Xiao Chen was ready to win. He didn't forget to remind her, "Let's make it clear first, don't get angry if I don't kiss you."

"Okay, okay."

They were both convinced of their own guesses and neither was willing to lose.

Yu Na tidied her hair and lay in his arms. Her watery big eyes blinked and blinked, pretending he was all she saw.

Usually by this point, he wouldn't have been able to resist kissing her fiercely and doing some other naughty things.

But now, reason prevailed. His only thought was: win!

Xiao Chen asked, "How many seconds has it been?"

Yu Na ignored him and stared straight at him. Her eyes could shoot electricity.

Ten, nine, eight, seven...

Xiao Chen also looked at her. He showed no intention of kissing her at all.

Five, four, three...

When it was almost ten seconds, Yu Na's hand suddenly reached under the quilt and decisively seized all his reason.

That pointless desire to win instantly collapsed into ruins.

Xiao Chen: ???

His body stiffened as his heart throbbed heavily. "You cheated!"

Yu Na took advantage of the situation, roaming back and forth. Her expression was innocent. "We didn't specify we could only stare at each other."

"... "

In the end, not only did he kiss her, but he did more intimate and secret things with her.

Yu Na let him do as he wished.

Finally, after cleaning up, they lay in bed again.

This bedroom was Xiao Chen's former bedroom. The bed was a single bed.

They could only lie very close to each other.

The single bed was right next to the window. They had drawn the curtains earlier but opened them again now, and found it was snowing outside.

"It's snowing!"

Xiao Chen was used to snow. Instead, he became curious about the rule and asked, "Are there any rules about snowing?"

"Huh?"

"For example, what would happen if a man and woman made eye contact on a snowy day?"

Yu Na said, "They'd be seen as crazy."

"..."

"And the snow would hit their heads, then melt into water--" she said very seriously, "Commonly known as, their brains are soaked."

Xiao Chen: "Go to sleep."

But after crawling back under the quilt, he was the one acting naughty again.

Up and down, deliberately targeting the places where her reason was most prone to collapse, constantly taking advantage.

He was quite busy, being a scoundrel while helping warm her feet at the same time.

...

The next day was New Year's Eve.

Yu Na refused to leave the bed. Xiao Chen directly brought breakfast to the room and fed her mouthful by mouthful like yesterday.

"It's like I'm taking care of a patient." He teased her as he fed her.

Yu Na curled up in the quilt. "You could just pull me up. Why bring the food in?"

"Grandma asked me to bring it in," he scooped up another spoonful of porridge to feed her, "and said for you to eat before going back to sleep."

Yu Na didn't want to stay in the room after eating breakfast either. She took the initiative to go to the kitchen.

The elders didn't let her do any housework. Especially grandma, who held her hand, liked it more and more, and said, "Such beautiful hands should be playing the piano, not doing housework."

That morning, she chatted with grandma the whole time. In the afternoon, grandma went to the kitchen to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

Yu Na accompanied grandpa and the neighbors to play cards with Xiao Chen.

It had to be said, he really was lucky. Even the cards he drew rarely had bad hands. It was as if he was a favorite blessed by God, so in every aspect.

The only window God seemed to have closed for him was likely his courage.

Not long after, Xiao Chen's parents, Qiao Rui, and Qiao Rui's parents all arrived too.

The old couple were all smiles. They just liked lively scenes.

Qiao Rui's parents knew Yu Na was Qiao Rui's head teacher and kept greeting her.

"Yu Na, tell me, doesn't Qiao Rui often cause you trouble?"

At this time, Qiao Rui kept coughing, like he had phlegm stuck in his throat. His signals for her not to make things too obvious were very conspicuous.

Yu Na thought that they shouldn't talk about such heavy matters during the New Year. Besides, Qiao Rui knew how to study now.

So she concealed those annoying things for Qiao Rui and answered, "No, no, Qiao Rui is very sensible."

Yu Na only praised without criticizing him. She also said, "This kid is quite chivalrous. He usually respects teachers a lot too."

Respects teachers a lot.

Listening nearby, Xiao Chen truly admired her shameless lying skills.

Qiao Rui was praised by his parents for a while. When his parents went to help out, he was so excited he almost kneeled down. "Sister-in-law, you're my god!"

Xiao Chen said, "How can you shamelessly say he respects you?" He brought up past grievances again. He was still really upset about this matter. "Did you forget he blew a kiss at you? Is that respect?!"

Qiao Rui: "...Bro, can you forget about that?"

...

The spring couplets hadn't been put up yet as the elders were busy preparing the New Year's Eve dinner. The young couple and a third wheel went out to put up the spring couplets.

Yu Na said, "I've never put them up before. Let me do it."

Xiao Chen and Qiao Rui, the two tall guys, exchanged a look and unanimously told her, "You just rest on the side."

"I want to put them up!"

Xiao Chen could only indulge his wife. He squatted down. "Come on."

"Huh?"

Yu Na and Qiao Rui both looked at him. "What do you mean?"

Xiao Chen had arranged it perfectly: "You can't reach. Get on my shoulders and put them up. Qiao Rui will check the positioning for you while you stick them."

But Qiao Rui refused to cooperate. His eyebrows were twisted into knots. "Damn! Is there no chair in the house?!"

Xiao Chen ignored him and urged Yu Na again, "Get on."

Yu Na spread her legs and sat on Xiao Chen's shoulders while he gripped her legs and steadily raised her to stand up.

Qiao Rui gave a thumbs up. "...You two really know how to have fun as a couple."

Xiao Chen calmly corrected him: "We're a married couple."

Yu Na suppressed the uptick at the corners of her mouth as she unfolded the spring couplet.

Under Qiao Rui's sarcastic direction, she put up the spring couplet properly.

After putting up the spring couplet, Qiao Rui was in no hurry to go back in. He took out his phone and opened WeChat. He tapped into the pinned conversation - "The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World."

This note was set by Xu Yi herself.

They had competed in reciting vocabulary. Whoever made fewer mistakes could make a request. Xu Yi had won.

So she changed Qiao Rui's note for her. Qiao Rui had complained about this note to her but still didn't change it back. He even pinned the conversation.

He sent Xu Yi a message: [Did you put up your spring couplets?]

The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World: [My dad put them up~]

Qiao Rui: [Those in Yunwan Mansion haven't been put up yet.]

The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World: [Then wait until you're back in Changwan to put them up~]

Qiao Rui: [You can put them up then! How about it? [smirking face][smirking face][smirking face]]

Xu Yi didn't know what was going on and naturally didn't know what mischief he was up to either. She simply replied: [Okay!]

Qiao Rui satisfyingly put away his phone and made a "yes" gesture outside the door, fist pumped.

Right then, the door happened to open. Out came the hardest to fool people, Xiao Chen and Yu Na.

His silly look, the young couple's startled looks, at that moment they inadvertently burst in on each other's sight.
