Chapter 209
"Since we're family, I'll spare all the courtesies. This matter, I'll trouble you with it, brother-in-law."
Lu Lixing En-ed.
Ji Qingqing really couldn't bear to listen any further. This Ji Chengxi, calling Lu Lixing brother-in-law as he pleases, did he forget what she just said?
Even she was embarrassed by him.
"Alright. Stop your nonsense. Aren't you still undergoing puberty? It's already so late. Are you not afraid that it'll affect your growth? Quickly shower and sleep."
Ji Chengxi glanced at his own thin stature, then looked at Lu Lixing who sported a strong and toned body, feeling slightly envious.
If he had a body as toned as Lu Lixing, then he wouldn't worry day and night about his nude photo being uploaded on porn sites.
"Brother-in-law still has to go to work tomorrow. Brother-in-law, you shower first." Ji Chengxi thoughtfully spared a thought for Lu Lixing. "Brother-in-law, it's already very late now. You should stay here for a night. My Sis has two rooms here. I'll sleep in one and you and my Sis can sleep in the other."
Lu Lixing glanced at Ji Qingqing.
And Ji Qingqing looked back at him.
"So tonight you're... going back? Or..."
If Ji Chengxi wasn't there, then it would still be fine. Now with an extra Ji Chengxi, three of them in one house, and sleeping on the bed with Lu Lixing... Ji Qingqing couldn't be any more awkward. Discomfort was written all over her body.
Lu Lixing seriously considered the question Ji Qingqing had asked and factored in the time spent. He shook his head and replied, "It's too late. This place is close to the company. I'll just stay here."
"Sis's place only has three rooms: one main bedroom, one guest room, and one study room." Ji Chengxi tested, "How about I sleep on the sofa instead?"
Lu Lixing conveniently changed his words, "No need to."
Ji Qingqing stood up. "I'll get you some clothes to change into after you shower."
She dug out a set of male pajamas from the closet in the living room and handed it to Lu Lixing.
Lu Lixing took the pajamas. There were no traces of it being used and the price tag hadn't been cut off. It was obvious that it was brand new.
Recalling the initial reason he came here, Lu Lixing narrowed his eyes. With an unhappy tone, he asked, "Why do you have a set of male pajamas prepared in your house?"
How would Ji Qingqing know why this house had a set of male pajamas?
Why does Lu Lixing care about every single detail? She gave him pajamas and he still has something to say about it?
Faced with Lu Lixing's question, she blinked her eyes and quickly racked her brains. "This is..."
"Prepared for me!" Ji Chengxi smiled and explained on behalf of Ji Qingqing, "Didn't I come here today? Sis specially prepared it for me. The pajama's big. Brother-in-law, it would be more suitable for you to wear it."
"If I wear your pajamas, what will you wear?"
"I'll just sleep without clothes for a night."
Lu Lixing had no other suspicions. He got up and went to the bathroom.
Once Lu Lixing stepped into the bathroom, Ji Chengxi tiptoed backwards, moving closer to Ji Qingqing's side. "Sis, what's going on between the two of you?"
Ji Qingqing looked at him. "What do you mean by 'what's going on'? Isn't it just as what you've seen?"
Seeing Ji Chengxi act like that, his relationship with 'Ji Qingqing' must be rather close. Initially, she thought that Ji Changxi would be one of those rascals who turn astray under the bad influence of family. She didn't think that this kid would look rather pleasing and have tact.
"But you just broke up with that previous bastard. It hasn't even been three months since that. Counting it, the duration the two of you have known each other hasn't even reached three months and you're already starting to prepare for the wedding?
"If you find it unreliable, then why were you enthusiastically calling him brother-in-law earlier?"
Ji Chengxi bluntly continued, "Sis, no offense to you, but you never had a good eye for people. Those few men from before, I need not elaborate further. Each is worse than the other."
