Chapter 367: Chapter 169: Love’s Origin Unknown, Yet It Runs Deep

"Let me see." Su Ran sat up and took hold of her small foot. "Just bear with me for a second, it’ll be better soon."

"Mhm," Liu Jinyu nodded, propping herself up on the bed with her hands. She watched as Su Ran held her long leg. "Little brother, it’s my right foot that has a cramp, not my left."

PFFT—

Xiao Wanqing spat out a mouthful of mineral water, clutching her stomach and giggling. She slapped Su Ran twice. "You’re so stupid. You can’t even tell which foot it is and you’re already trying to massage it. Move, I’ll help her."

The two girls actually had a very good relationship. The fact that they were both involved with Su Ran hadn’t made things awkward between them.

Xiao Wanqing massaged it for a while, and Liu Jinyu’s cramp finally eased.

Su Ran said, "This is karma for hitting your little brother."

Liu Jinyu retorted, "If you misbehave again, I’ll still hit you."

Su Ran stretched. "I’m tired, I’m going to sleep." With that, he burrowed into the blankets and closed his eyes to sleep.

However, the moment he lay down, they dragged him back up.

Su Ran was about to cry.

"What are you two doing? You might not be sleeping, but I need to. I’m begging you, please give me a break. I can’t play anymore. You two play with each other."

"You changed the subject just now and haven’t answered properly. Between me and Liu Jinyu, who do you like more? Do you want to be her little brother, or do you want to be my boyfriend? Give us a straight answer tonight. We’re not letting you weasel your way out of it again."

"I want both, alright!"

"...Shameless. Such a big appetite. I don’t like you anymore."

Xiao Wanqing kicked Su Ran and burrowed into the blankets on the left.

"...How did our dorm end up falling for you? You’re not my good little brother anymore."

Liu Jinyu also glared at Su Ran before burrowing into the blankets on the right.

Phew.

Su Ran didn’t want to think about anything. All he had to do was lie flat like a corpse.

Lying in the middle, his hands were placed obediently at his sides. He turned his head from side to side and saw that both girls had their backs to him, playing on their phones before bed.

’That’s fine too.’

Su Ran could finally sleep in peace. He closed his eyes, nestled comfortably in this fragrant haven, ready for a sound sleep.

Gradually, all three of them fell asleep.

Su Ran usually slept on his side, so he turned to his right. He reflexively pulled her into his arms.

His head rested near her ear. Deep in sleep, she instinctively shrank her neck and moved his hand from her chest to her waist.

A moment later, his hand found its way back to her chest.

SQUEEZE...

’That’s just how boys are in their sleep; they like this kind of thing.’

At some point, she felt something wasn’t right.

"No..."

She reached out to push Su Ran away, squirmed a couple of times to distance herself a little, and pulled her skirt down to cover her thighs.

’It’s impossible. It’s absolutely not going to happen tonight.’

Su Ran slept like that for a while, but then felt uncomfortable. He lay flat on his back for a bit before turning to his left. Over on this side, Xiao Wanqing had already turned to face him in her sleep.

Su Ran reached out, wrapped an arm around her thin waist, and pulled her close into his embrace. He slept for a while, and then, driven by an affection that arose from nowhere, they slowly began to kiss.

A few minutes later...

"Get lost..."

She, too, pushed Su Ran away.

’I’m so pathetic,’ Su Ran thought. ’I’d rather be sleeping on the street. Why am I putting myself through this torture?!’

...

Nothing more happened that night; things went just so far and no further.

The morning sun shone into the cave dwelling. Su Ran was woken by the sounds outside. He got up, shook his head, and recalled last night. It was just some Finger Technique Fragrance, nothing more.

’In the end, the two of them just couldn’t fully let go.’

Of course, Su Ran wasn’t going to pretend. As a guy, all he could think about right now was having a threesome.

’It’ll take more time, I guess.’

After washing up, he went outside and saw the four girls and Aunt Luo playing shuttlecock in the courtyard.

"39, 40, 41... Su Ran, you’re so annoying!"

Aina was just about to break Liu Jinyu’s record of 42 kicks when Su Ran walked over, flicked his hand out, and snatched the shuttlecock. Furious, Aina came up and gave Su Ran a couple of light punches. "I hate you two, brother and sister!"

Liu Jinyu giggled, giving Su Ran a thumbs-up. "Nice one, little brother."

What happened with Su Ran while they were sound asleep was their own private matter, not to be discussed during the day. Days were for a new life, and nights were for their... ’intimate’ life.

"My turn." Xie Yiren took off her jacket and stepped up to play.

Su Ran sat down next to Liu Jinyu, took the milk he was offered, and started drinking while watching Xie Yiren play.

When it came to shuttlecock, Su Ran only liked watching Xie Yiren play. You could say he was fixated.

Jiggling and bouncing. A beautiful day started with watching Xie Yiren play shuttlecock.

However, Su Ran could almost feel the painful pull of gravity on Xie Yiren’s behalf.

Xie Yiren bit her lip and glared at Su Ran. ’He’s not watching me play shuttlecock at all,’ she thought. ’His eyes are glued to my...’

"32."

Xie Yiren lost. Huffing indignantly, she walked over and stepped on Su Ran’s foot. "You’re the worst!"

Su Ran chuckled. "My fault. Everything is always my fault. I’m just a mistake, right?"

The four women, each more beautiful than a flower, all tucked their hair back in unison and said with a laugh, "You are a mistake. Hehehe..."

The sound of cheerful laughter and the lively chatter of women—this was the life he yearned for.

Aunt Luo looked at these young people who had put aside their own business to accompany her through these few days of sorrow, and her heart was filled with relief and gratitude.

"Phew... I haven’t played shuttlecock in so long. I’m exhausted after just a short while."

Xie Yiren sat down next to Xiao Wanqing and gulped down a few mouthfuls of water.

"Hehe, Yiren, you still need more exercise," Aunt Luo said with a smile. Her eyes unintentionally swept over Xie Yiren’s neck, and her expression suddenly changed. There, on the skin visible above her T-shirt’s collar, something familiar was appearing. It was an ancient totem, materializing bit by bit on the young woman’s neck...
