Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Kiss Every Day

"Sister! I was wrong, I just rushed in because I heard something off in your voice. I wouldn’t dare to peek at you, how bold would that be? Besides, we’ve grown up together, we even bathed together as kids, and we’re siblings, so what’s the big deal?" Song Xiaodong hung his head, holding Song Xiaoru’s wrists and pleading repeatedly since his ear was being twisted by her.

"Hmph, that’s still not okay. We’re adults now; what kind of behavior is this?"

With a woeful expression, Song Xiaodong said, "It was an accident, I didn’t do it on purpose. Sister, please let me go."

In fact, Song Xiaoru wasn’t even twisting hard; Song Xiaodong wasn’t in pain at all. It was always like this between them; they had both grown accustomed to this kind of interaction.

"Next time, I won’t hesitate to twist your ear off," Song Xiaoru spoke with a ’ferocious’ tone, but her kind of fierce somehow always seemed so gentle, making it impossible for anyone to actually feel scared.

Song Xiaodong finally stood up straight, saying, "Sister, let me take another look."

"You want to look again? Have you lost your mind?" Song Xiaoru kicked at Song Xiaodong with her foot.

Song Xiaodong stretched out his hand and caught Song Xiaoru’s small foot, grinning as he said, "I’m looking at the wound on your leg, not anything else. Sister, your thoughts have gotten a bit dirty."

Song Xiaoru, teased by Song Xiaodong, turned red and struggled with her foot, scolding, "You dare to make fun of me? Do you not want to get better?"

"I wouldn’t dare!" Song Xiaodong chuckled and sat down on the bed edge, lifting Song Xiaoru’s leg onto his own and examining the wound on her leg carefully.

Seeing Song Xiaodong become so focused all of a sudden, Song Xiaoru watched him in a daze. Earlier, when she had been in the room rubbing her body, she had heard the words Song Xiaodong said outside and had unwittingly spaced out. Song Xiaodong noticed something was off and ran in. Now, looking at Song Xiaodong, Song Xiaoru spaced out once more.

"It’s fine! It’s nothing serious. Oh right, sister, let me give you a good foot massage. You must be tired from wearing high heels while shopping with me today, and wearing high heels can easily deform a woman’s toes, or even cause some pathological changes."

Snapping back to reality, Song Xiaoru said, "Ah... I’m definitely tired, but it’s not as bad as you make it sound, right?"

"It’s true. I’ve been thinking about giving you a foot massage every day recently, but I never got around to it. So, starting today, I’ll massage your feet. I can’t bear to see my sister’s beautiful little feet get deformed; that would be a crime against heaven," he said while already massaging Song Xiaoru’s feet. She felt a bit of pain and instinctively drew back her leg, saying, "Be gentle."

Song Xiaodong immediately lightened his touch, "Okay, okay, how about this strength?"

"A bit lighter."

"And now?"

"That’s about right," Song Xiaoru laughed softly, saying, "Am I too difficult to take care of as your sister?"

Song Xiaodong grinned showing his white teeth, replying, "No way. If it were someone else, I’d tell her to bear with it, but when my sister says it hurts, I just can’t bring myself to let her."

"You, you’re getting slicker with your words."

"I’m the most sincere in front of you, sister. Even if I deceived the whole world, I would never deceive you. Sister, your feet are really pretty, I never noticed before. Now that I’ve seen them, I realize your feet are definitely the most beautiful among all the women I’ve seen."

"Really? What’s so good or bad about feet?" Song Xiaoru asked in surprise.

"That’s because you have a beautiful pair of feet, so you don’t care. Some women have too large feet, which are unattractive by themselves, while others have too small feet. Although they may look delicate, they don’t express beauty well. My feet are absolutely the perfect size," Song Xiaodong teased as he demonstrated grasping her foot, "just the right size to fit in my hand. Besides, the skin on your feet is delicate, your toes are rounded, and each toenail is exceptionally well-shaped. If someone with a foot fetish saw this, they’d consider it the ultimate treasure."

"You’re exaggerating," Song Xiaoru said, feeling embarrassed by Song Xiaodong’s compliments. She quickly kicked him and added, "Are you implying... that you’ve seen a lot of women’s feet?"

Song Xiaodong coughed awkwardly, "Well... I have seen quite a few, considering I’m a doctor."

"Is it because you treat patients... or for other reasons?" Song Xiaoru stared into Song Xiaodong’s eyes.

Song Xiaodong coughed lightly again, speaking guiltily, "Alright, I admit it. My life was a bit messy in the past few years. Now that I’m back, I won’t be so reckless anymore."

Song Xiaoru opened her mouth, wanting to ask about the girls he had met before. But when the words came to her lips, for some reason, she didn’t want to ask anymore, and said instead, "Just be more prudent in the future."

"Understood," Song Xiaodong quickly agreed. He didn’t want to talk much about the past, but if his sister asked, he wouldn’t hide anything. It suited him well that Song Xiaoru wasn’t asking, so he kept quiet.

"Looking at how relieved you are, you must have done plenty of bad things before," Song Xiaoru teased, spitting at Song Xiaodong, "Keep massaging, it’s making me sleepy."

"If you’re sleepy, just go to sleep,"

As Song Xiaoru closed her eyes, she felt a total relaxation, just from having her feet massaged, and she fell asleep without realizing it.

Song Xiaodong massaged Song Xiaoru’s feet earnestly for a while, then carefully got up. Watching her sweet sleeping figure, a smile spread across his face. Suddenly he felt an impulse, leaned down, and gently kissed Song Xiaoru’s cheek.

This kiss had no malicious intent, nor a hint of romantic feelings. It was simply an expression of sibling affection. After kissing her, he suddenly felt it was indeed very warm and seemed to bring him even closer to his sister.

"Hmm, I should tell sister tomorrow that I need to give her a kiss every day," Song Xiaodong immediately decided.

He returned to his bed and soon fell asleep as well. The next morning, Song Xiaoru woke him, saying, "Get up quick, you have to go to the association today, right? It should be the day you start teaching."

Song Xiaodong got up lazily. After washing up, Song Xiaoru had already prepared the meal. While eating, Song Xiaoru mentioned she would go check out the household appliances today, and Song Xiaodong could go to work.

Song Xiaodong had no objections, but as he was leaving, he suddenly hugged Song Xiaoru’s waist and kissed her on the cheek.

"Ah, you scoundrel, what are you doing?" The sudden move caught Song Xiaoru by surprise, and she quickly pushed Song Xiaodong away.

"Haha, I’ve decided, from now on, I’m going to give sister a kiss every morning and before bed," Song Xiaodong announced with a laugh as he ran out of the door.

Song Xiaoru stood there, dumbfounded. What was going on with Song Xiaodong? Could it be that he already knew she wasn’t his biological sister?

Thanks to book friend "Missing You Makes Me Think" and brother 1657301956 for the reward. I got up at 5:30 in the morning to take care of my daughter’s breakfast and school. There was heavy snow yesterday; I was too tired driving back and overslept. The update is a bit late, sorry.
