A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

......

Lu Jianan took a nice shower and got ready for bed.

"Waaah—!" He pounced on the super soft and super comfortable bed at the state guesthouse.

The beds in the state guesthouse are specially made to accommodate important guests, to save face, and to ensure that guests from various countries are not comfortable or unaccustomed to sleeping there. They are really big, roughly 3 x 3.5 meters in size.

Roll over.

It's so soft.

Roll it again.

Wow, it's huge! It hasn't even rolled to the end yet.

Hee hee hee.

Rolling around, from east to west.

So happy!

Gao Tian has indeed married into a wealthy family.

Hehe, although he didn't marry into a wealthy family, he can still stay here thanks to his older brother's connections, hehehe.

My older brother is so kind.

Rolling around.

Having never slept in such a big bed before, Lu Jianan was too excited to fall asleep for a while, so she rolled around on the bed.

Sudden--

"Knock knock knock".

A knock sounded in the quiet corridor.

Unlike his usual casual manner, these three taps were clear and restrained, carrying a unique strength and rhythm characteristic of scions of noble families. They were neither hasty nor too slow, yet clear enough for those inside the room to hear clearly.

?

Lu Jianan sat up.

Who could it be so late?

It's a bit like the way the older brother knocks on the door, but not quite.

Lu Jianan got out of bed, tiptoed to the door, and turned on the video surveillance camera on the door—

My older brother lives next door, so he shouldn't be in any danger, right?

There probably wouldn't be any bad guys who would dare knock on his door when his older brother is next door.

Sure enough, it was the older brother on the monitor screen.

The older brother stood outside his door, still in the position of knocking. He was still wearing the clothes he had worn during the day and hadn't changed into his pajamas.

Lu Jianan looked at her watch; it was already past eleven, almost midnight.

Is it because the older brother's suit is particularly comfortable?

Haute couture clothes are just different—

The door lock clicked softly, and Lu Jianan opened the door a crack.

Warm yellow light streamed through the crack in the door. Lu Jianan, feeling extremely sneaky, peeked out from under the doorknob, tilting her head slightly to look at Bi Shen: "Big Brother?"

......

Bi Shen walked without stopping, through the long corridor, straight to Lu Jianan's room.

Once he understands this, the young master will no longer wrong himself.

They are both registered as engaged couples, so what makes him, the dignified head of the Mantis family, unworthy?

All Lu Jianan wants is a home, right? It's that simple. As the dignified head of the Mantis Clan, he has everything. Lu Jianan can have whatever she wants.

Let's finalize the status tonight and register tomorrow.

Bi Shen walked to Lu Jianan's door and knocked.

He had made up his mind. As soon as Lu Jianan came out, he would notify him, congratulating him on achieving his goal of sticking to him all along. Then he would register the marriage the next day and receive Lu Jianan's gratitude.

"Click".

Lu Jianan opened the door.

Lu Jianan adorably peeked out from inside the door.

He was clearly just getting ready to rest; the collar of his soft loungewear was slightly open, his hair was a little messy, and his eyes held a pure sense of bewilderment and confusion, like a little deer that had strayed into the light.

"Big brother?" Lu Jianan's voice was tinged with confusion.

Lu Jianan is really stupid.

In Lehrnia, if a female insect knocks on a male insect's door late at night, she will immediately be perceived as offering herself up.

Lu Jianan only knew Makka Pakka.

Bishenmantis's mind went blank for a moment.

My mind was completely controlled by an impulse.

He did not answer Lu Jianan's question.

He wasn't even given more time to react.

He himself didn't know what he was doing.

The moment Lu Jianan poked her head out, tilted her face slightly, and looked over with her clear eyes filled with pure inquiry, Bi Shen made a move that was completely unexpected.

He took a step forward, encroaching on Lu Jianan's shadow cast by the light from inside the door.

He has always been very domineering.

But there was no rough pulling, nor any forceful intrusion. He simply reached out and, with a strange gentleness, gently cupped Lu Jianan's soft, hot cheeks.

Then, to Lu Jianan's astonishment and slightly widened eyes, Bi Shen approached, with the unique, deeply ingrained elegance of a young master from a prominent family, and with a resolute determination, and gently pressed his lips to Lu Jianan's slightly parted lips.

This was a kiss that was completely different from his usual proud and aloof image.

Congratulations, you won.

You little idiot.

I give up.

It was very light and fleeting, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of water.

With fondness, with cherishing, with an irrepressible flutter of the heart, with involuntary emotions, and with a tremor that even he himself was unaware of.

It was a beautiful night; everything seemed to be frozen in the moonlight, turning into amber of time.

He will never forget this day.

......

Lu Jianan froze completely.

His eyes were wide open, his pupils clearly reflecting his elder brother's lowered, fluorescent green pupils and thick eyelashes, which were so close to his face.

My mind went blank, all my senses were focused on that one strange point of contact, my blood rushed to my head and then froze in the next second.

He forgot to breathe, forgot to react, even forgot to push away; he was as if petrified by a fairy's spell.

What is my brother doing?!

Time seemed to have stopped at that moment.

The world froze.

Lu Jianan's eyes widened in surprise.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!"

A mere 0.01 seconds after time froze, pure horror swept over Lu Jianan's wide-open eyes like a tsunami, instantly shattering all her confusion and sleepiness!

"ah--?!!!"

A terrified, distorted voice, a mixture of immense shock and disbelief, finally broke through the frozen throat.

Aaaaaaaahh ...

Lu Jianan was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and who had been given a high-voltage electric shock; she suddenly stepped back!

My shoulder and back slammed heavily against the cabinet behind me with a loud "bang!", then hit the door, making the door frame vibrate.

It hurt a lot, but Lu Jianan could no longer feel any pain in her body.

He clutched his lips, which felt as if they had been branded with a hot iron, and waved his other hand wildly in the air as if trying to ward off some unseen, terrifying creature. His voice trembled violently, filled with sobs and immense terror.

"Big brother?! What, what, what are you doing?!?"

His reaction was far too extreme.

Moreover, this reaction seems to be different from what Bishon expected.

Like a bolt from the blue, it struck Bi Shen hard on his beautiful vision of the future.

"Click."

Gone.

His expression changed instantly. His fingers, which had been cupping Lu Jianan's cheeks, were still frozen in mid-air, and the lingering warmth at his fingertips now felt incredibly scorching.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a sound out of confusion. He could only watch helplessly as Lu Jianan's eyes showed pure, immense, and unadulterated shock.

".......What??"

What kind of expression is that?

Why are you making that face? Didn't you... try to be nice to me first?

Weren't you trying to hook me all along?

Weren't you waiting for me to speak first?

But Lu Jianan said, "Why did you kiss me?! I don't have those kinds of feelings for you!!!"

Bishen: "?"

If you don't have this kind of feeling for me, what kind of feeling do you have for me? If you don't have this kind of feeling for me, you're always clinging to my leg, following me around, saying how handsome and nice I am every day, and you even registered as engaged couple with me?

......

Lu Jianan covered her mouth, looking very aggrieved.

This was his first kiss! And he was a perfectly virgin!

Shame! Panic! Feeling wronged! And a little bit of inexplicable shyness!

His heart was pounding wildly in his chest like an epileptic deer! It was about to kill him!

"No, explain yourself clearly..." Bishen tried to pull him away.

"Ouch—!!!"

Seeing his older brother's incredulous face, Lu Jianan felt he couldn't face the situation anymore. He let out a shout, turned around abruptly, and like an escape pod launched with full force, he scrambled away on all fours!

Bishen was left standing alone at his door, staring blankly as he ran away.
