* Cool, aloof tutor vs. her student's older brother / the cousin of the man she loves
During the summer vacation after the college entrance exams, Xia Wu found a part-time job tutoring the daughter of a wealthy family for 300 yuan an hour.
Unfortunately, it rained on Xia Wu's first day of work. She'd forgotten her umbrella and got drenched.
Even worse, just as she was nearing the villa, a vicious dog came charging out of nowhere.
Just as it was about to pounce on her, Lu Qingzhuo appeared.
Under a large black umbrella stood a tall, lean young man, with a long, straight figure and a chilly air about him. The visible half of his face had a sharply defined jaw.
He only had to call the dog's name, and it obediently lay down at his feet, a completely different creature from the ferocious beast it had been a moment ago.
Soaked through and standing in the rain, Xia Wu met his gaze through the curtain of water.
Only later did she learn that he was her student's older brother.
And the cousin of the man she loved.
Little scene:
In the cramped, humid space, Xia Wu's soft waist was shoved against the cabinet beside her. She hissed.
The next second, his lips covered hers again.
Through the thin fabric, Lu Qingzhuo's burning hand rested on the bluish hollow of her waist, kneading it gently.
As he kneaded, he kissed away the lipstick she'd put on not long ago.
Xia Wu's body went limp under his expert kisses. She wanted to make a sound, but she couldn't bring herself to.
Because just on the other side of a curtain stood her student and the man she loved.
Lu Qingzhuo saw what she was thinking and let out a breathy "heh." His damp kisses traveled to the sensitive rim of her ear. Pressing close to her, he teased her wickedly. "Why aren't you making a sound?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to let him see how I kiss you, darling?"
