Chapter 118 It was as if he was kissing Lin Leilei’s feet 1
"What do you mean by chopping wood and stewing meat?" Lin Leilei, who had just sat on the piano bench, looked at Qian Mingduo with a puzzled look on her face. "What do you mean?"
"Ha, ha, ha." Qian Mingduo laughed and said, "Chopping wood and stewing meat means hitting your butt with a wooden stick. This is called chopping wood and stewing meat."
"You're just talking nonsense." Lin Leilei pouted and said shyly, "I'll give you a meal of chopped wood and stewed meat."
"Okay..." Qian Mingduo took out two cans of Coke from the refrigerator and handed one to Lin Leilei. "Give me a glass of iced Coke."
“Hmm…” Lin Leilei shook her head and refused: “I can’t drink cold drinks these days.”
"What's wrong?" Qian Mingduo asked, "It's so hot, why don't you dare drink something cold?"
"I won't tell you." Lin Leilei said coquettishly, "You are not allowed to ask again!"
Qian Mingduo smiled bitterly, shrugged, and said, "Okay, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."
Qian Mingduo came out of the bathroom and saw Lin Leilei flipping through the exercise book, so he came over and asked, "What are you practicing now?"
"I'm practicing the music for the exam," Lin Leilei turned to the chapter of Mendelssohn's "New Thing Song," "It's this piece of music."
"Press the soft pedal," Qian Mingduo said, "The resonance of my piano is very good, otherwise the sound will be too loud."
"Hmm!" Lin Leilei responded, then carefully stepped her right foot on the soft pedal.
However, just as she stepped on it, an accident happened - her foot suddenly slipped, and the pedal that was supposed to be firmly pressed lost control. With a crisp sound, the pedal that was not pressed in place bounced up strongly and hit her ankle.
"Ouch!" With a cry of surprise, Lin Leilei suddenly lowered her head and tightly covered her injured ankle. Her face showed a painful expression, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her lips trembled slightly: "It hurts..." Her voice was full of helplessness and pain, as if the pain had exceeded the limit she could bear.
Qian Mingduo was startled by this sudden scene. He quickly squatted beside Lin Leilei and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
"I hit my injured foot again." Lin Leilei sobbed, "The soft pedal bounced back and hit my injured ankle again."
"Let me see!" Qian Mingduo squatted down nervously, knelt on one knee, carefully lifted Lin Leilei's injured foot, and then gently placed it on his thigh.
There were several obvious scratches on Lin Leilei's ankles, but fortunately there was no bleeding. However, these scars still looked painful.
Qian Mingduo frowned distressedly, his heart full of worry. He gently stroked the scratches, as if trying to relieve Lin Wan'er's pain.
Then, he pursed his lips and blew hard at Lin Leilei's ankles. Every breath was full of care and love, hoping to bring her some comfort in this way.
At the same time, he whispered comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, I'll blow on you and it will be fine." His voice was gentle and firm, making people feel extremely reassured.
Seeing Qian Mingduo so anxious, Lin Leilei felt a warm current in her heart. She felt his sincere care and love, and this emotion deeply touched her heartstrings.
At this moment, she forgot the pain in her ankle, and only had the big brother who took care of her wholeheartedly in her eyes. She felt that no matter what difficulties she encountered, as long as Qian Mingduo was by her side, everything would be fine.
Qian Mingduo only felt shortness of breath, chest tightness, and rapid breathing. So, he anxiously lifted Lin Leilei's feet up, perhaps he was too eager to relieve Lin Leilei's pain, so he used too much force when lifting her feet.
He actually touched Lin Leilei's foot to his mouth, as if he was kissing Lin Leilei's foot. This sudden scene made the two of them stunned for a moment. They couldn't help but look at each other, their eyes were full of incomparable embarrassment, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Qian Mingduo had just been blowing hard for a long time, and now he was completely exhausted. He sat down on the ground like a deflated ball, gasping for breath.
His heart was beating rapidly in his chest, and he wanted to cover up the extremely embarrassing scene in front of him as soon as possible. So, he pretended to be calm and said casually: "I just accidentally took a bite of pig's trotters, you know what, it was quite delicious."
"Hmm..." After hearing this, Lin Leilei's face instantly turned red like a ripe apple. She twisted the corners of her clothes unconsciously with her hands, lowered her head, and did not dare to look directly into Li Xuan's eyes.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, showing her inner panic. She stammered, not knowing how to respond to Qian Mingduo's ridiculous words.
At this time, the room was quiet and only Qian Mingduo's heavy breathing and Lin Leilei's increasingly rapid breathing could be heard. Seeing Lin Leilei's shy look, Qian Mingduo felt a little regretful for his inappropriate joke just now.
He cleared his throat, trying to break the awkward silence, "Leilei, don't mind it, I just wanted to ease the atmosphere, but I didn't expect to backfire." Lin Leilei still lowered her head and nodded gently, her voice as thin as a mosquito, "I know..."
"Does it still hurt?" Qian Mingduo asked softly, "Is it feeling better?"
"It doesn't hurt much anymore." Lin Leilei nodded slightly. "Much better."
"Is it really not painful anymore?"
"Well, really."
Qian Mingduo let out a long breath, stretched his legs, and sat on the ground. Looking at Lin Leilei who was about to play the piano, he stood up suddenly, walked to the side of the piano, and said to Lin Leilei, "Don't press the soft pedal, let me do it." As he spoke, he pressed the soft pedal to the bottom, moved it sideways, and then said to Lin Wan'er, "Play it."
"Why is there no piano sound?" Su Yaqin, who had been watching TV, muttered to herself, "It's been a while, and I haven't heard any piano sound. What are these two kids doing?"
Just as she was wondering, the piano music of "New Stories" came from the opposite door. "It seems that the soft pedal is pressed, the sound is so small" Su Yaqin smiled and said in her heart: "These two children are very sensible, they are afraid of disturbing the neighbors."
Qian Mingduo felt that time passed too quickly. In a blink of an eye, Lin Leilei had been playing for nearly an hour. He had been leaning on the sofa, his eyes focused on Lin Leilei, with appreciation and tenderness flashing in his eyes. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if immersed in a beautiful atmosphere.
Lin Leilei also felt Qian Mingduo's gaze, but she did not feel uneasy or shy. On the contrary, she played the piano more attentively, her fingers lightly jumping on the keys, playing a series of beautiful and melodious notes.
