Chapter 328: Whispers in the Night

Lin Zheng Ran thought for a moment: “Sure, but I know you’re not that close to them yet. Would you be okay with pretending to live together?”

Jiang Jingshi replied immediately:

“Absolutely! I’m adaptable, and living together wouldn’t be a big deal. We each sleep in our own space anyway, and during the day we’re at school. Weekends might mean more time together.”

She said seriously: “Since we’re all Zheng’s girlfriends, we’ll end up living together eventually. Better to get used to it now than later. Besides, Zheng can’t just leave me here alone.”

Lin Zheng Ran smiled:

“Actually, Jingshi, living with us might not be what you imagine. We don’t have separate bedrooms; we all sleep in the same bed. So that idea of everyone sleeping on their own doesn’t quite work.”

Jiang Jingshi’s pretty face froze in place.

Then she suddenly sat up in bed, propping herself on her hands, both shy and confused: “What?! Zheng plans to sleep in the same bed with all three of them every night?!”

Lin Zheng Ran knew outsiders would misunderstand, so he explained: “It’s not like that. We’re together, but not in the way you’re thinking. That’s way too open; we’re not there yet.”

“Yet?”

“Just a precise way of saying it. Don’t get the wrong idea.”

Jiang Jingshi faltered, then suddenly pouted, her face flushed: “Even if we’re not doing that, sleeping together is already pretty intense.”

She added quietly: “Though with so many girlfriends, I’ve thought about that kind of thing possibly happening in the future.”

“Jingshi, what are you saying…”

The higher her status, the more Jiang Jingshi felt embarrassed imagining such scenes:

“I’m not saying anything… But just so you know, I won’t agree to that sort of thing, even if I usually go along with you. It’s just too much.”

Lin Zheng Ran: “.”

Even though he hadn’t said a word.

Lin Zheng Ran pulled her back into his arms, holding her close.

He asked: “So, putting it all together, that’s why I said pretending to live with them when you’re not close might feel awkward.” He sighed: “Though I know the more I say this, the more you’ll want to go.”

Jiang Jingshi gripped her beloved tightly with her slender fingers.

She said gently, with a hint of jealousy: “Of course. If you’re sleeping with them, how can I stay away? Otherwise, every night after work, I’d just lie awake imagining what you’re up to.”

Lin Zheng Ran held Jiang Jingshi, who had her unique scent.

She suddenly laughed and said: “Anyway, I can just think of them as sisters. When I was little, I used to sleep with Qian Qian, even though it’s been years since we shared a bed.”

Jiang Jingshi suddenly recalled some childhood memories, still feeling Lin Zheng Ran’s hand stroking her head.

She looked up curiously: “Zheng, I have a question for you. Do you really like touching girls’ heads?”

“Hmm? Do I?” He paused what he was doing.

Jiang Jingshi nodded: “You do. Like when I lean on your shoulder, or right now. It seems whenever a girl gets close like this, you can’t help but do it, like you’re comforting them.”

Lin Zheng Ran had never really noticed that about himself.

But now that Jingshi mentioned it, he realized it was true. So, when did he pick up this habit?

A voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

“Brother Zheng Ran! Keep stroking my head!”

“Brother Zheng Ran~ It feels so good when you stroke my head.”

A little fox’s tail swayed.

Lin Zheng Ran broke into a sweat. He suddenly understood where this habit came from.

That fox had subtly shaped this habit in him over the years?

“Zheng? Zheng?”

Lin Zheng Ran turned back to Jingshi and saw Jiang Jingshi looking like a sulky wife, cheeks puffed out.

He wanted to laugh: “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Jingshi: “I just feel like you were thinking about other girls just now.”

Lin Zheng Ran didn’t deny it.

Jiang Jingshi suddenly covered her mouth and giggled: “Flirtatious Zheng. But if you like doing that, have you ever had other girls touch your head?”

Lin Zheng Ran answered: “Not really. No one’s done that to me.”

Except Mom did it occasionally when I was little.

Jiang Jingshi looked eager: “Then can I do it to you? I want to try. Just once! Please?”

With so many girlfriends of different personalities, unexpected requests kept popping up.

“Alright.”

So, next, Jiang Jingshi lay back on the pillow, taking the lead.

She held Lin Zheng Ran in her arms.

Now Lin Zheng Ran rested against her chest.

The woman’s slender, pale hand stroked Lin Zheng Ran’s hair, her face tinged with a faint blush: “Zheng, you’re so cute.”

Lin Zheng Ran opened his eyes in a world of white.

He pulled the blanket over them.

Jiang Jingshi let out a surprised gasp.

And so, another passionate encounter unfolded.

That night’s dinner was pasta with seafood.

After experiencing a woman’s touch, Jiang Jingshi seemed to grow more mature.

While cooking, she kept biting her lip, her face lightly flushed.

She prepared a variety of exquisite and expensive ingredients.

Sitting beside Lin Zheng Ran, she smiled as they finished the meal together.

After dinner, they drew the curtains, and Lin Zheng Ran carried Jiang Jingshi to the bedroom.

The next morning dawned bright and sunny.

To avoid suspicion, Lin Zheng Ran and Jiang Jingshi went to school separately.

Jiang Jingshi, still in her pajamas, saw Lin Zheng Ran off at the door: “Zheng, take it easy on the way to school. I’ll handle the checkout soon.”

Lin Zheng Ran nodded: “I might need to come by later to sort out the day student application.”

Jiang Jingshi said gently: “Oh, right, we’ll need Aunt or Uncle’s signature for that, or I can’t process it.”

“Okay, I’m off.”

Jiang Jingshi grabbed Lin Zheng Ran’s hand: “Zheng~”

Lin Zheng Ran looked at the mature and beautiful Jiang Jingshi, kissed her on the lips: “See you at school, Teacher.”

“Mm, see you later, Lin Zheng Ran.” She felt content.

That day on Qingbei University’s campus.

Jiang Qian bumped into her sister unexpectedly.

The sisters glanced at each other from afar; Jiang Qian remained as cold as ice.

But today, Jiang Jingshi surprisingly greeted her younger sister warmly: “Good morning, Jiang Qian.”

Jiang Qian gritted her teeth.

She snorted coldly and brushed past.

Jiang Jingshi stopped and turned back: “Jiang Qian’s temper is as fiery as ever. She didn’t even say hello to her teacher.”

“Hmph.”

“My little sister is still so adorable, even when she bares her teeth.” Jiang Jingshi mused.

Jiang Qian glanced back with a murderous look and quickened her pace to get away from her sister.
