Chapter 49 He was lacking oxygen in the cave. Sister-in-law, can we make an excuse?
The temperature inside the cave dwelling was frighteningly high.
"Using...an excuse?"
Su Wan's heart skipped a beat at Lao Liu's sudden "rogue talk".
She looked at the boy in front of her, who usually just smiled foolishly, but now had a flushed face and a dazed look in his eyes. Sweat slid down his high nose bridge, dripped onto his bobbing Adam's apple, and then disappeared into his rapidly heaving chest.
Because that breath was too strong, Qin Yun was truly oxygen-deprived.
My head was buzzing, and I was seeing stars.
But he just couldn't bear to let go. His sister-in-law's embrace was so soft, and she had a pleasant milky scent that, even in the cave filled with the smells of sulfur and coke, was like an addictive potion.
"Borrow your brains!" Su Wan blushed, but her hands didn't stop moving as she cursed.
Instead of pushing away the hot-blooded young man, she raised her hand and placed it on his broad, muscular back—
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Pat your chest rhythmically to help you breathe!
"Inhale—exhale—! Don't play dead!" Su Wan's voice was sweet but tinged with urgency.
As she patted him, Qin Yun felt the suffocating sensation slowly recede, replaced by a tingling, numb feeling on his back.
His sister-in-law's hands weren't big, and they weren't very strong. But those few pats on his back felt like they were patting the very tip of his heart!
"Mmm..." Qin Yun let out a satisfied groan, nuzzling his head against Su Wan's neck like a golden retriever who had just finished a chore and was asking for praise.
"Sister-in-law... I'm alive again."
"My sister-in-law smells so good."
[Beep! "Extreme dependency" detected!]
[Target: Qin Yun (Sixth Brother). Status: Oxygen deprivation + Obsessed with women (crossed out) Obsessed with his sister-in-law!]
[Heartbeat Value: +150! Gained the "Lung Capacity Enhancement" buff!]
However, just when the atmosphere was getting so ambiguous that it was about to become awkward.
"Let her go!!!"
A roar filled with intense jealousy and anger rang out from the cave entrance!
Qin Feng, the fifth brother, was shirtless, carrying a bucket of freshly drawn well water, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.
Good heavens! He just went to fetch some water, and his shameless younger brother was actually groping his sister-in-law?! And even rubbing against her?! Is her neck a place he can rub against?!
"Clang!" The bucket was thrown aside. Qin Feng, like a wolf whose meat had been stolen, rushed over in a few steps, grabbed Lao Liu by the back of the neck, and forcibly "torn" him off Su Wan.
"Sixth Brother, are you trying to get yourself killed?! You're covered in sweat, don't get your sister-in-law's clothes dirty!" Qin Feng cursed, but the next second—
He tilted his body, and his face, identical to Lao Liu's, instantly loomed close to Su Wan's. His eyes were filled with grievance, his lips slightly parted, and his curly hair was still dripping wet.
"Sister-in-law... I'm tired too."
"I also experienced oxygen deprivation while moving the coal."
"I want a pat on the back too... I want to breathe too..."
As he spoke, this guy actually took the opportunity to wrap his arms around Su Wan's waist from behind!
Their chests were pressed against each other's backs. Su Wan froze instantly.
Behind her was the fifth brother's hot, hard chest, his rapid heartbeat pounding against her back. It was so hot. These twins were practically human furnaces!
"You two... get out of my way!" Su Wan's face turned as red as a ripe tomato as she struggled to break free from their "attack" and retreated to the side, panting heavily.
This isn't glassmaking; it's clearly a test of her composure in a confined space with only one man and one woman... no, two men and one woman!
"Business comes first!" Su Wan said sternly, fanning herself with her notebook to try and cool her burning cheeks: "The molten glass is about to solidify! Quick! Do it again!"
"This time, the fifth brother is blowing his own horn! The sixth brother is turning the tables!"
"Anyone who dares to lay a hand on me again... won't get any braised pork tonight!"
Upon hearing "no meat to eat," the two little wolfhounds instantly became obedient. "Yes, sister-in-law!"
……
For the next hour, the only sounds in the cave were the whooshing of the blower and the heavy breathing of the boys.
Although those delicate little gestures were gone, the scene... was even more impactful.
To control the heat perfectly, the twins worked together flawlessly. The fifth brother puffed out his cheeks, his face flushed, and blew a long breath into the iron pipe.
As the airflow rushed in, the crimson liquid, which was originally only the size of a fist, slowly expanded and stretched as if it were alive.
"Steady...slow down...slow down even more..." Su Wan stared at the flowing light, her voice soft.
Old Six squatted on the ground, holding iron pliers, and quickly reshaped the softened glass.
The two men's muscles glistened enticingly in the firelight, and with each exertion, their lines were so smooth that it was impossible to look away.
This is the most primal kind of sexiness. Strength, sweat, focus, and the wildness of giving your all for the same goal (your sister-in-law's mission).
"Now! Seal the sirens!" Su Wan gave the order.
"Rise!" The fifth brother suddenly withdrew his breath, and the sixth brother clamped down with his iron pincers.
"Sizzle—!" The formed glass was placed into the prepared warm ash for annealing.
A long wait.
As the temperature inside the cave slowly dropped, and as the layer of wood ash covering the surface was carefully swept away...
The fifth and sixth brothers sidled up, their heads bumped together, and they both let out a surprised exclamation of ignorance.
On the worktable, there lay a palm-sized object lying quietly.
It is crystal clear and pure without a trace of impurity.
Although it hasn't been polished yet, it refracts a seven-colored halo thanks to the ray of sunlight shining through the cave entrance!
It resembles a piece of frozen water, or a tear left behind by a goddess.
"This...this is something we blew up?" Old Six's hands trembled, wanting to touch it but not daring to. "This is even more translucent than the jade that the county magistrate keeps in his ancestral hall!"
Su Wan walked over and picked up the piece of glass. It was a cuboid, with a dried flower (an unidentified wildflower) that she had placed inside while the glass was still warm.
The petals unfolded, lifelike, as if frozen in time forever at this moment.
【Crystal paperweight】.
This was precisely the "entrance gift" she had prepared for her second brother!
"It's done!" Su Wan smiled proudly, turning to the two stunned teenagers: "How about that? With the Qin family's help, even a stone can be turned into a treasure!"
The fifth and sixth brothers looked at Wenzhen, who was gleaming in the sunlight, and then at their sister-in-law, who stood in the light, even more dazzling than Wenzhen. Thump. Thump. Their heartbeats were so loud they drowned out the sound of the fire.
"Sister-in-law..." The fifth brother swallowed, his voice hoarse, "How much can this thing... sell for?"
Su Wan smiled mysteriously and shook a finger: "This is priceless."
"Because it not only allows my second brother to walk into the academy with his back straight."
"It will also make those snobbish bastards... bulge their eyes out!"
……
A few days later, they were to go to Guigu Academy to meet up with their second brother and officially send him to study. To put it bluntly, Guigu Academy was going to check whether their family's financial situation was suitable for him to study there.
