MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 10 Episode 61

Just then, the power went off, and Lu Lian shrank in her place, but it was a relief that she could see Ming Rusheng in the light coming from the fireplace.

Ming Rushing frowned as the lights went off, “As expected.”

Commenting, he went to get the lamp which he had already prepared, expecting to face such a situation any time.

Lu Lian was not the one to get scared so quickly, but she was new to this place, which was away from the bunch of humankind. The crazy rain, a completely dark place with the lightning’s frightening sound, made her feel scared.

Ming Rusheng looked at Lu Lian but couldn’t see her expressions clearly as she was on the darker side of the room, but the way she shrank in the one corner of the couch, was enough to know she was scared.

Holding the lamp, he went to her and finally could see her face. She tried to act tough and smiled a little, showing she was fine, but one could see inside she was scared.

Putting the lamp on one side of the couch, which lightened up the place around, Ming Rusheng went to the couch. He picked up one cushion and put it at one end of the couch.

Patting the cushion lightly, he signaled her to lie down. Lu Lian did so, and Ming Rusheng helped her to cover herself.

Just as Lu Lian got comfortable while lying on the couch inside a warm blanket, something happened that almost made her jump out of the couch.

Ming Rusheng also got into the blanket and lay beside her, and before she could react, he spoke, “I hope you are not expecting me to spend the night in the cold while you sleep comfortably here.”

Lu Lian swallowed the word she was about to say and lay frozen as she was sandwiched between the tall man lying beside her and the backrest of the couch.

“No, it’s fine,” she said, clutching the blanket which she pulled up to her mouth, keeping only her eyes uncovered, which stared at the ceiling.

“The couch is wide enough for two of us to sleep comfortably,” he added.

“Hmm,” she agreed unwillingly, and Ming Rusheng could guess it from her tone.

“As long as you don’t have any lewd thoughts in your mind, we are fine,” Ming Rusheng teased while staring at the ceiling.

“I won’t, but you better not think anything weird,” she warned.

“I believe in doing things and not just thinking about it,” he countered.

Hearing it, she felt like burying herself on the couch as there was no more space left to move anymore.

As it was the couch and not bed, there was no space between them as their bodies touched each other on their sides.

His left hand from shoulder to elbow brushed to her right side, so she kept her hand between so his hand won’t touch her at any wrong.

Lu Lian continued staring at the ceiling while Ming Rusheng closed his eyes as he folded his right hand below his head.

Lu Lian was still shivering a bit, and with every loud sound of the lightning, she would flinch and shut her eyes tightly while covering her mouth with the blanket, not to make any sound of teeth chattering.

Ming Rusheng turned on his one side to face her. She didn’t dare to look at her but didn’t know how to get out of there.

“Scared?” he asked.

With her eyes shut and not looking at him, she replied, “S-scared? I’m not scared of you.”

Ming Rusheng smiled, “I was talking about the dark and lightning sounds.”

Feeling embarrassed about her reply, she spoke, “A little.”

“Turn towards me,” he instructed calmly.

Lu Lian opened her eyes and turned her face to look at him, her sight full of questions.

“Not just face but entire you,” he spoke, staring back into her eyes.

“Why?” she asked.

“One more question, and I’ll shut your mouth,” he warned, gazing at her intensely, and it looked even intimidating.

Gulping, Lu Lian turned to her one side, facing him as she flooded her hands in front of her chest.

“Lift your head,” he instructed again as she looked at him, puzzled.

She wanted to ask why, but she remembered his warning and obeyed.

Ming Rusheng put his left arm under her head and signaled her to rest her head. Just as she did so, he circled his right hand around her back and pulled her closer to him as her face almost buried on the top side of his firm chest.

“What are you doing?” she asked, trying to move away from him, but there was no space she could move. Moreover, he held her tightly with his hand surrounding her.

“A while ago, you said it’s cold and needs to be a bit hot,” he replied.

Lu Lian remembered she said it for real and frowned at herself as at that time she lost her mind while drooling over this man’s hot body.

“Now, I’m fine,” she replied.

“Then why are you shivering?” he countered.

She loosened her tightly folded hands in front of her chest and wanted to push him away, but the warmth she got from him was so comforting that she lost her will to push him away.

Ming Rusheng could guess what she felt as she relaxed and asked, “Is it better now?”

“Hmm,” she nodded.

“Then be comfortable and sleep,” he instructed and closed his eyes.

Lu Lian closed her eyes too, but few things kept troubling her and messing with her senses.

It was the first time she slept with a man like this, and he was topless, not to forget the kind of sexy body he had that could make

As her face was close to his neck and chest, she could smell his scent that messed up with her brain.

‘He smells so good,’ she thought.

She liked it and wanted to sniff into it.

In such a condition and in such weather, it was normal for her to feel like that and when the man took care of her so nicely, to make her heart flutter.

Just as she tried to sniff, he spoke, “Be good and sleep.”

She stopped, frowning a little in disappointment, and thought, ‘Not my fault when you are holding me so close. Who asked you to smell so nice. It’s just so good.’

When her brain was contemplating over so many things, Ming Rusheng was unaffected and continued sleeping.

‘How can he be so calm. Doesn’t he feel anything?’ she thought and then realized her heart was beating faster, ‘Is his heart the same,’ she thought and wanted to check.

She could have moved her face closer and heard by placing her ear on his chest, but it would be too much, so she thought to use her hand.

Just as Lu Lian moved her hand to his chest, Ming Rusheng moved his hand from her back to hold her hand at a place, “What are you doing?” he asked.

She lifted her head to look at him, who was already staring at her.

“M-My hands are cold, and you are warm so….” she tried to explain, her face already turned red.

“Seems like not because of just cold, but your face turns red when you lie,” he commented, his voice cold.

She understood he had caught her lie a while ago when she said her face turns red when it’s cold.

Not having anything to say, she lowered her head and tried to retreat her hand, but Ming Rusheng held it tight.

Before she could speak, he put it on the left side of his chest.

She could feel his heartbeats and tried to compare with her. She realized it’s not just her, but his heartbeat was faster too.

“I’m human too,” he commented and let go of her hand.

Holding her chin to make her look at him, he spoke calmly, “Don’t do anything that will put you in trouble.”

Lu Lian understood the underlying meaning and nodded lightly. Lowering her head to resume her comfortable position, where she enjoyed the warmth from him, she closed her eyes.

Smiling lightly, Ming Rusheng patted her head as if calling her a good girl.

It was not easy for her Ming Rusheng too, but he couldn’t let go of himself and ended up doing something wrong. He just wished to genuinely care about her as he was worried for her and didn’t want her to think otherwise.

He knew he liked her and was attracted to her but didn’t wish to show it. Whatever went through her mind since the moment she entered the workshop; he was aware of it as it was easy to read her face when she felt embarrassed about something.

Her sight on him when he put the woodblock in the fire, he could sense it, and how her face turned red, he noticed it too but pretended to be ignorant. The one thing he couldn’t deny he liked her acting like this and wanted to keep her with him just like that.

She smelled nice too, and holding her delicate soft body closer to her was like turning himself on, but he tried his best not to.

As Lu Lian finally turned silent after his warning, he gave out a sigh of relief, or he wouldn’t know what he would have done.

Lu Lian tried to sleep, but the frightening sounds of wind, lightning, and rain couldn’t let her be. Subconsciously, she held him tighter by circling her hand to his waist, burying her face in his chest.

Her warm breath kept touching his chest and her face brushing against his chest whenever she flinched, and in return, he continued holding her to make her feel safe.
