Junior Brother Pays Respect to You: Chapter 71 - A Crucial Kiss
Chapter 71: A Crucial Kiss
After making the agreement with Qin Su, Qin Zheng was the first to arrive at the Sanqing Hall.
At this moment, the hall was still empty.
But soon, once the time came, the senior and junior disciples would arrive in groups.
He just needed to carry out the plan when the first group came in.
Leaning quietly against a pillar inside Sanqing Hall, Qin Zheng felt a bit uneasy as he thought about what he was about to do—and about Qin Su’s face
He only hoped Qin Su wouldn’t strike him down with a palm.
The sound of light, measured footsteps made Qin Zheng stand up straight.
By reason, with Qin Su’s high cultivation level, he shouldn’t have made any noise, even if Qin Zheng’s hearing was sharp.
Qin Zheng turned to look and found it was indeed Qin Su approaching.
He seemed to be intentionally making his steps audible.
Qin Zheng watched as Qin Su slowly walked toward him step by step, staring at that face and those lightly pressed lips.
Thinking about how he’d soon be having intimate contact with those lips, Qin Zheng could feel his heart starting to race.
When Qin Su finally came to stand in front of him, Qin Zheng realized—somewhat surprised—that his junior had actually grown taller than him.
Now Qin Su was looking down at him with an unreadable expression in his eyes.
“If you have something to say, just say it.”
That pleasant voice sounded by his ear.
Qin Zheng quickly cleared his throat and looked toward the doorway, trying to shift his focus.
“Well, it’s like this…”
Qin Zheng deliberately slowed down his speech, trying to stall for time.
He had to wait until the others arrived!
Forcing a dry laugh, he said, “Actually…”
“I wanted to…”
As Qin Zheng spoke, he kept one ear alert, trying to catch any sounds from outside the hall.
“Senior Brother Qin Ke, did the elder secretly tell you if the sect leader is announcing anything big today?”
“Of course, but if you all want to know, just wait a little longer. The sect leader will announce it soon!”
When Qin Zheng heard Qin Ke’s voice, he was overjoyed.
He considered this divine assistance.
With Qin Ke as a witness, what he was about to do would surely reach the sect leader’s ears quickly.
Qin Zheng grabbed both of Qin Su’s arms and quickly said, “I want to ask you for a favor!”
Then, without hesitation, he leaned in and kissed Qin Su on the lips.
Qin Zheng looked up at Qin Su and noticed he seemed momentarily stunned by the sudden action.
He couldn’t help but think, Well, even if I get punished for this, it was totally worth it!
But… why hadn’t the others come in yet?
Looks like the timing was a bit off.
By this point, Qin Su had already reacted, but he didn’t push Qin Zheng away. He just stood there, quietly looking at him.
Qin Zheng had no choice but to steel himself and continue with the kiss.
The voices outside were getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, all the noise stopped abruptly.
Qin Zheng guessed everyone had just walked in and seen them, so he quickly pulled away from Qin Su.
He turned to face the group of stunned junior disciples at the entrance and pretended to explain: “This… this is just a misunderstanding!”
Qin Ke, standing at the front, stared at Qin Zheng and then whispered a few words to the disciple beside him. That disciple immediately ran off.
Qin Zheng knew Qin Ke must have sent someone to report the incident.
The sect leader absolutely wouldn’t tolerate anything that disrupted disciples’ cultivation.
And what he had just done was exactly the kind of behavior the sect leader most disapproved of.
Qin Zheng quietly turned around and stood at his designated spot, turning his back to Qin Su.
Meanwhile, Qin Su was now surrounded by the senior disciples who had just witnessed the scene.
Everyone started asking him questions all at once, wanting to know the details.
But Qin Su remained silent the whole time.
Even so, Qin Zheng could still feel Qin Su’s gaze on him.
Soon, the disciple who had run off returned and loudly announced, “The sect leader has ordered Qin Su and Qin Zheng to report to the courtroom!”
“Also, this afternoon’s meeting is canceled. Please help spread the word.”
Upon hearing the announcement, Qin Zheng turned to glance at Qin Su, and then the two of them left the Sanqing Hall together.
When they reached a quiet corridor where no one was around, Qin Zheng stopped and said, “When we see the master later, put all the blame on me!”
“I had to do this—but I can’t drag you down with me.”
