134 Crush on You? Wanna Bet? (1/2)

Zhou Lei sat on the comfort of the couch. Beside him was his sister, who had her palm over her mouth, as if trying to hold back something.

And on the couch directly opposite, sat one Jiang Zi Yun.

She wore a baggy t-shirt that clearly was too large for her small and thin body. She wore underwear that Zhou Lei took from his mother's closet without her permission.

At the current moment, she had a slightly red and frustrated face, her arms crossed and her lips curled downwards. Her eyebrows creased as the space between them sunk.

With the tense atmosphere around the house, it was clear why Zhou Lei felt uncomfortable. ”Zi Yun, listen-”

”I don't want to hear it.” Jiang Zi Yun raised her palm, interrupting Zhou Lei midway. ”Leilei, you listen to me instead.”

Zhou Lei nodded, although his expression told a different story.

His indignance radiated from his body, even reaching Jiang Zi Yun and triggering her sharp senses. ”...You can call it an accident all you want, but use your common sense.”

”I just leaned on the door, anything wrong with that?” Zhou Lei truly wasn't willing on giving in and admitting that he was wrong.

”See, the thing is, why would you lean on the door when you had full knowledge that I would open it?”

”Er...” Zhou Lei scratched his head, thinking of a reply. ”I, uh, was only planning on leaning for one second...”

”And that's your excuse?” Jiang Zi Yun raised her eyebrow, questioning the boy sitting on the other couch.

”...Okay, fine. It was my fault.” Zhou Lei didn't have any rebuttals for her argument anymore. ”Anyways, we've already seen each other naked before, what's the big deal now?”

”...” Jiang Zi Yun.

”...” Zhou Zhenya.

”...Leilei, do you need me to explain that the two times you saw me unclothed were both accidental as well?” Jiang Zi Yun nearly gave up on reasoning with her friend. ”Not to mention the huge crush you had on me back then.”

”D- don't bring that up!” Zhou Lei stood up, slamming the table. His whole body was red, embarrassed by what he just heard.

Beside him, Zhou Zhenya just spit out some saliva in shock.

”Eh? Seems like you're still not over me rejecting you...” Jiang Zi Yun still had her stone-cold face on, but the tone of her voice became playful.

Despite her usual disposition, once Zhou Lei got close to Jiang Zi Yun, the latter would constantly tease him in any way.

At first, he was put off by this. Halfway in, he got used to her always bringing up embarrassing subjects.

However, as the gap between their last interaction and now was half a decade, naturally, Zhou Lei needed to get used to her teasing again.

”Why would you bring that up in the first place? It has nothing to do with the accident this time.”

The tense atmosphere was alleviated a bit, as Zhou Lei wasn't as indignant as he was before.

”Well, you might be tempted by my alluring figure...” Jiang Zi Yun was slowly getting used to talking to her old friend again. 'Strangely, it doesn't seem like he has changed that much...'
