Chapter 22: Sister's game is all about being elusive!

Jiang Cheng really picked up the spoon.

It was just the dazzling white light; he had only taken a hurried glance.

But her long, beautiful legs suddenly shifted pose.

The high-heel toe swept past in front of his nose, and she crossed her legs.

Jiang Cheng, who had picked up the spoon, sat up.

"Do you think it looks good?" Su Manyao asked, biting a fruit fork.

Sister is so wild, pretending would be no fun.

Jiang Cheng said truthfully, "It's nice, I love to look, and I want to keep looking."

"Hmph, men." Su Manyao rolled her eyes, wearing a teasing expression, and then said:

"It's nice; from now on you're not allowed to look at anyone else, only me."

Su Manyao couldn't figure out how to tell if a man is reliable, but she realized another thing: "Make a man choose between two options, and he must pick me!"

This is unreliable, but he also has to be reliable!

Having figured this out, Su Manyao had no more doubts.

So she started chatting with Jiang Cheng.

The aloof sister actually knows how to take care of people, and she chatted with Jiang Cheng from studies to future goals and plans.

Su Manyao finished speaking, summing it up in one sentence: "The man who belongs to the sister, the sister will support."

Jiang Cheng finished speaking, summing it up in one sentence: "I want to slack off."

Besides, in this state, the two of them got along quite well.

Leaving the restaurant, the evening breeze lightly brushed his face; Jiang Cheng checked the time—it was already past eight at night.

Then he looked at the woman standing beside him, attracting countless gazes.

As his younger brother said, tonight opening fire would definitely be impossible.

"Want to walk by the river?" Jiang Cheng said.

Su Manyao looked back, seriously examining Jiang Cheng's face in the night, and said, "Okay."

The riverbank never lacks couples.

I don't know if it's because this place is quiet, or because the river wind here is suitable for embracing.

Along the way, there were youthful lovers, golden-anniversary old couples, or experts or people leaning on each other's shoulders.

Or leaning on each other, or embracing.

Or gazing at each other, or. "Don't look much, don't think much." Su Mengyao warned in advance, but being in such an environment, she also felt weird, uncomfortable all over.

Jiang Cheng walking beside her pursed his lips, without replying.

Looking less is fine, thinking less—do you think I'm a monk? One day I'll press you against the wall and see if you still say that!

The two stood by the riverbank railing; the evening breeze gently brushed Su Manyao's hanging hair, the black strands swaying, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Jiang Cheng leaned over and reached out.

He supported her waist.

The Yujie shuddered, turned her head to look at Jiang Cheng's face right before her.

Jiang Cheng looked straight ahead, gazing at the lights across the river.

Move a little closer.

Move a little closer.

He lifted her up.

The fresh fragrance filled his nostrils with the evening breeze; I don't know if the strong wind masked the sister's heartbeat, but Jiang Cheng heard his own heartbeat.

But you have to try if you're going to try.

People must take the first step; the hand on her slim waist moved upward.

Suddenly another slender hand grabbed it.

"Don't push your luck." Su Mengyao looked at Jiang Cheng and said softly.

Her voice was very cold, full of Yujie tone.

Jiang Cheng didn't speak, turning his face to the side.

He thought, really, the greater one's courage, the greater the reward.

As long as one is bold, even a 'chastity leave' might not be nonsense! But Jiang Cheng's skin isn't as thick as a city wall; being pointed out by the sister inevitably brings some embarrassment.

But this expression of turning his face fell into Su Manyao's eyes.

She thought this younger brother was angry.

She looked with her big eyes, then suddenly tiptoed, touching Jiang Cheng's neck like a dragonfly skimming water—just a brief contact.

Originally that was the idea, but maybe it was also the first time she tried to act like an older sister, yet felt nervous inside. This wasn't like a dragonfly skimming water; it was like a big stone dropping into a water tank, a heavy 'bam' landing.

Jiang Cheng:??? Should I respond? Jiang Cheng widened his eyes! Su Manyao blushed, but this kind of sister finds it hard to show embarrassment; she calmly turned and said, "Alright, it's late, we should head back."

If I don't send you to school, the dormitory will close.

Jiang Cheng, seeing it was good enough, trotted after her, "Okay."

Su Manyao drove and sent Jiang Cheng to school, but he didn't plan to stay overnight at school today, so he didn't take Jiang Chen into the school; instead, he let Jiang Cheng get out at the school gate.

Jiang Cheng's roommate Liu Tao, after having dinner with Su Peng and them in the afternoon, went to take on a part-time job, and now he's returning after finishing it.

At the yin-yang spot by the school gate, he saw Su Manyao's car, and then saw a familiar figure stepping down from the car.

That was Jiang Cheng!

After seeing Jiang Cheng get out of the car, he then leaned on the open car window and blew a kiss toward the inside of the car!

Who is inside Su Manyao's car?

That must be Su Manyao!

So who is Jiang Cheng blowing a kiss to?

That must be Su Manyao!

Liu Tao felt the blood in his body rush violently to his head, making his scalp go numb and he felt a bit dizzy! Lao Jiang is actually that fierce? He snatched Su Peng's sister, the goddess professor Su Manyao from Modu?

Then he recalled the photo that had once become popular on the forum?

Could that person really be Lao Jiang?

Liu Tao felt his guess wouldn't be wrong; before this he hadn't thought in that direction, but just now this scene, plus the man's physique in the photo, perfectly overlapped in his mind.

Instantly Liu Tao felt a chill down his back, as if he had discovered a huge secret! And in TV dramas, supporting characters who know secrets usually meet a grim fate.

I didn't see it, I didn't see it! Liu Tao covered his eyes.

But at this moment, Jiang Cheng, who was saying goodbye to Su Manyao, didn't care, wondering if there was a Liu Tao watching him.

Because it was already late for sleep, but there were still some people coming and going at the school gate, many gazes fixed on him.

Jiang Cheng doesn't care about this.

Last time Yujie became popular, I didn't say anything, so how could I be petty? What's there to be afraid of? If you see it, you see it!

Moreover, Su Manyao could openly send him to the school gate, so she probably didn't treat this as a deep taboo.

Or rather, the sister's style is to be half-hidden, half-revealed.

She doesn't let the brother know, yet she doesn't worry about classmates at the school gate seeing.

"Don't be cheeky."

Su Manyao's aloof face showed little expression as she gave Jiang Cheng a glare, yet she appeared alluring.

Jiang Cheng didn't respond, just waved his hand and said, "Watch out on the road."

Then he turned and walked toward the school gate, seeing under the streetlamp a few students who had just witnessed this scene, their eyes wide open, staring at him as if they'd never seen the world before.

Jiang Cheng smugly flicked his hair, "Basi!"

"Hey! Lao Jiang, how come you're back tonight?" In the dorm, Su Peng was click-clacking away at a shooting game; seeing Jiang Cheng return, he said several times, turning his head:

"I thought you had scored; you stayed out this late and came back, didn't you get any benefit?"

His voice wasn't loud, but he was shouting, and it was clear he was in a great mood.

Actually, Su Peng was indeed quite at ease right now, because at noon Jiang Cheng had said he had something to go out for, and he assumed it was definitely a date.

To make sure Jiang Cheng's date wasn't Su Manyao, he called her several times at noon, and he could be absolutely certain: Su Manyao hadn't left the company!

So his already few doubts were completely dispelled.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from the household.

Then the dormitory door was flung open again, and Liu Tao rushed in.

He and Jiang Cheng locked eyes.
