<figure class="tmblr-full" data-orig-height="327" data-orig-width="500"></figure>I’m pretty sure that I turned red as I was translating this chapter. Fei Wo Si Cun certainly knows how to write a hot kiss scene. If this is any indication of her bed scenes, I certainly cannot wait until Liu Shao and Jing Wan get married. :P
Encountering Love: Chapter 35
Although Jing Wan was forward, after hearing her father say this aloud so frankly, she could not keep her face stright. She reddened slightly and forcing a smile, she said: “Father, what have you been thinking?” Yin Chu Fan replied: “When your wound has healed more, lets return to Qian Ping quickly. I think there is just some misunderstanding between you and Jian Zhang. You have already been engaged, and we have been friends for many years with the Xu family. If there are any problems, we can discuss it slowly.”
Jing Wan did not know why, but after hearing her father say this, she felt very angry and even had an inexplicable feeling of embarrassment, she said: “Even you don’t believe me? Liu Shao and I have faced hardship together, but he is very polite towards me, I cannot do anything about that.” Yin Chu Fan bit down on his pipe and said: “You have been very clever since you were little, I do not believe that you are unable to think of a way to avoid his politeness. He is extremely polite to you, but I don’t think you are polite at all towards him.” Jing Wan has always had a stubborn streak, and with frown, she willfully said: “Father, then you wait and see. Anyways, I never had that kind of thought, though perhaps he misunderstood. I will think of a way to make him give up on this thought.”
Since she had already come to this kind of decision, Yin Chu Fan did not question her any further. Indeed, Jing Wan wholeheartedly looked for an opportunity, but there was never an appropriate moment. That day, Zhao Shu Ning came to visit her, the two of them were making some small talk. Zhao Shu Ning saw that there was a small Western-styled pistol, inlaid with gems, on the nightstand next to the bed, so she said: “I heard Sixth Brother say that this pistol was especially ordered from overseas, and he only ordered a pair, as it is very precious.” Murong Feng had given this gun and a car to Jing Wan before the incident, and she had taken it out to return to Murong Feng. At that moment, after hearing Zhao Shu Ning that it was actually paired, deep down, she was slightly embarrassed and subtly, she smoothly changed the topic and said: “Liu Shao is very skilled with the gun.”
Zhao Shu Ning’s eyes twinkled brightly and she replied: “Sixth Brother was personally taught by the Commander. Since he was young, Sixth Brother had been keen to excel. I remember when he was six or seven, the Commander asked him if he wanted to be a Regimental Commander when he wanted to grow up. Who knew that Sixth Brother would respond that when he grew up, he did not want to be the Regimental Commander. The Commander asked him what he wanted to do when he grew up, and Sixth Brother raised his head and replied: ‘I want to govern the country and bring peace to the world.’ After that, the Commander was extremely please and boasted that Sixth Brother had noble aspirations.”
Jing Wan saw that there was great admiration in her words. Zhao Shu Ning saw that Jing Wan was staring at her, and her face reddened, bowing her head, she said: “I am being so long-winded, I have prattled on about such a little thing for a long time, I’m afraid that Miss Yin will be annoyed after listening to me.” Jing Wan replied: “No, I love to listen you.” She then asked: “What year was Zhao Jie’jie [1] born? I guessed that Jie’jie is older that I am.” Zhao Shu Ning said: “I am young than Sixth Brother by a year and four months.” Jing Wan happily said: “I am sworn brother and sister with Liu Shao, so I will call you Jie’jie. Jie’jie please do not look down upon me.” Zhao Shu Ning gave a ‘ah’ and said: “So you and Liu Shao are sworn brother and sister, I had thought…” After saying this, she laughed. Jing Wan obviously understood, but she pretended to be confused: “I am young, confused and bold, I had reached above my station by calling Liu Shao my elder brother. Jie’jie and Liu Shao are close cousins, so Jie’jie is also my elder sister.”
Zhao Shu Ning heard her call her Jie’jie again and again, her mouth was as sweet as honey, her mind was clever, how could she not like her? The two of them became even closer and after that, Zhao Shu Ning often came to relieve her boredom.
That day, Commander Yu had invited Yin Chu Fan out to dinner, and Murong Feng always came to see her before he went to sleep, but since his meetings often ran late, she was often asleep by the time when he came back. Today, because the meeting had ended early, Jing Wan had not slept yet, so he said with a smile: “I’m finally able to see you today, yesterday and the day before that, when I came, you had already fallen asleep.”
Jing Wan called out to Lan Qin: “Go and bring a midnight snack for Liu Shao.” Lan Qin brought over a bowl of noodles over, Murong Feng saw that it was shredded chicken with wheat noodles, the noodles were thick and the oil clear, the light fragrance surrounded then. He could not hold back his smile and said: “I have troubled you, thank you very much.” Lan Qin happily replied: “Miss Yin ordered the kitchen to prepare this earlier, but she also did not want to make the noodles too early because she was afraid that by the time Liu Shao arrived, the noodles would be burnt.” Murong Feng took the chopsticks from her, and Lan Qin withdrew without a sound. Murong Feng’s appetite was large, and as he slowly ate the noodles, he asked with a smile: “How did you know that I like to eat this?“
Jing Wan responded, smiling: “I asked Shu Ning Jie’jie. Shu Ning Jie’jie is very attentive, she remembers very clearly what Elder Brother likes to eat, what you like to drink, everything you like, and everything you dislike.” Murong Feng expression changed slightly, and unwittingly, he held the chopsticks and noodles still near his mouth. Jing Wan was afraid that she had outsmarted herself and did not dare to say anymore, so she asked with a smile: “Why have you stopped eating?”
Murong Feng laughed aloud: “Why have you stopped speaking?” Jing Wan saw that even though he was smiling, his eyes were cold and deep down, she was afraid, so she smiled slightly and called out: “Elder Brother.” The sound of her words had not settled yet, but Murong Feng had already tossed the chopsticks aside. A thin chain connected the tops of that pair of chopsticks, and they only heard a ‘pa!’ as the chain broke; one of the chopsticks flew sideways, the other one fell on the floor as the soup in the bowl splashed out. His eyes could swallow someone, and he scornfully watched her: “Yin Jing Wan, do not force me too much. I will tell you clearly today, I do not want to be some bothersome elder brother to you, I like you. That shot which nearly took your life also nearly took mine. At that time, I had already decided that as long as you live, you will be mine. Even if you are angry at me and hate me, I cannot bear this any longer!”
Jing Wan did not expect him to say these words to her, and she saw the feverish burn in his eyes that were on the verge of turning into flames. She had been sitting on the bed, but he reached out his hand to grab onto her shoulder; she turned pale with fright as his aggressive and scorching lips covered her own. She struggled a little, but the movement caused severe pain from the wound on her chest, she could not help but yelp out, and he took advantage of the opportunity to plunder her mouth, inhaling in her sweet fragrance as he nibbled on her lips. She was very afraid, she reached out her hand to push him away, but he bound her even more tightly. The taste of him stole her breath, she did not have any energy so she leaned against the crook of his elbow, the tips of her fingers grazed over his neck, and he finally released his hold as he felt the pain.
