CHAPTER 36: SHOWCASING LOVE

Leah’s mood bar now included the word "jealousy," and Luis instantly realized his success. Occasional provocation was truly effective.

"Disgusting, why kiss here?"

"My wife, I can kiss however I want. Wife, go change clothes first, we’re having hotpot tonight."

Lily giggled and went upstairs. Luis sat in the living room and lit a cigarette. Avery plopped down beside him and said to Leah, "Bunny, your brother in law isn’t what you described at all."

"What nonsense are you spouting now?"

Leah panicked and rushed to stop her, but Luis suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist, preventing her from struggling. Luis teased with a smirk, "Avery, what did this little girl say about me?"

Leah was instantly flustered. Not only did she realize how intimate this posture was, but she also ended up sprawled over Luis’s lap, reaching for Avery:

"Shut up, you gossip! If you dare say it, I’ll tear your mouth apart!"

She was practically hysterical. In this position, her full breasts pressed against Luis’s crotch through her thin bra. Luis was lying back like a lazy recluse, so his dick happened to be right under her breasts.

As the sister in law moved vigorously, it was like she was grinding against him. Luis couldn’t help but groan in pleasure as his dick began to stiffen, but to cover it up, he tightened his grip and pinned her down on his lap.

Avery dodged and then smirked, "Don’t want me to talk? Fine, but only if you show some sincerity."

"You bitch, blackmailing me??"

Leah gritted her teeth.

"Yep, got a problem? I’ve got the leverage."

Seeing Leah trapped and unable to break free, Avery’s playful side emerged. She crouched nearby and flirtatiously lifted Leah’s chin with her finger.

From this crouching position, her collar gaped open. Since Luis was sitting higher, he had a perfect view of the accidental exposure.

Avery was wearing a purple bra, also a demi cup style, revealing half of her plump, alluring breasts. The round, ample mounds trembled slightly, their deep cleavage shockingly mature for her age.

Even under loose clothing, those monstrously huge boobs were impossible to hide. It was hard to tell whether she or Leah had the better pair.

Avery noticed Luis’s gaze, but she didn’t get angry or shy. She just blushed slightly and let him look, pretending not to notice as she continued teasing Leah:

"Bunny, if you don’t bribe me, don’t blame me for spilling."

Leah was breathing heavily, her mind going blank from how obscenely intimate this position felt.

She was lying across her brother in law’s lap—no, his crotch—her breasts crushed against his most private area. In the heat of the moment, she hadn’t noticed at first, but now, pinned down by him, she could clearly feel the shape of his dick.

Worse, Leah could also feel that damn thing hardening, now pressing excitedly against her chest.

Seeing Leah red faced and silent, as if putting on a cold, aloof act, Avery sneered. She suddenly climbed onto the sofa and lay next to Luis. At this point, she shot him a faintly seductive look while leaning closer to Leah.

Her collar was still wide open, giving Luis an unobstructed view of her deep cleavage. With just that glance, Luis was convinced this little girl was doing it on purpose.

But Avery immediately giggled and started groping Leah’s ass through her skirt, teasing, "Brother in law, hold her down. I’m gonna spank her, then I’ll tell you everything."

"Avery, you dare—"

"Brother in law, let me go! I’ll kill her—"

Leah was instantly provoked into near madness, thrashing wildly and even kicking. But now, the blush on her face deepened.

Because with every movement, his dick rubbed against her breasts through their clothes, as if fucking them. The fully hardened rod felt like iron, making her breathing uneven.

"Alright, alright, stop messing around!"

Seeing Leah about to explode in anger, Luis quickly played peacemaker. He released his sister in law and asked, "Leah, confess. Did you talk a lot of shit about me?"

The question made Leah instantly guilty. Avery hugged her from behind and giggled, "What, scared to admit it? You’re so sharp tongued when gossiping, not like me. I’m terrible with words."

"Shut up and no one will think you’re mute!"

Leah angrily flicked her little head.

Avery rubbed her head, pouting. "I just don’t get it. Your brother in law treats you so well, why do you badmouth him so much?"

"You—if you don’t talk, will you die?"

Leah was practically fuming.

"Fine, fine, I won’t say anything!"

Avery immediately surrendered.

Luis finally understood their dynamic. Clearly, Leah was the more dominant one, always in control. His impression of the quiet, studious girl was completely wrong—Avery was the truly innocent and cute type here.

Luis was burning with curiosity, but Avery subtly winked at him, so he didn’t press further.

Lily came downstairs after changing into jeans and a short sleeved shirt, looking fresh and ending the unresolved farce.

The four took a taxi to a small hotpot place farther away. It wasn’t a chain, so the decor was plain, but it was affordable and tasty.

Copper pot lamb—nothing special, available everywhere. At this price, it was all frozen meat anyway, so there wasn’t much difference.

After ordering, Leah couldn’t help complaining, "Why come all the way here? There’s a place right downstairs, same price. Wasting money on a taxi for nothing."

Lily, unusually coquettish, smiled sweetly. "This place has the best chili oil. Your brother in law always remembers I love eating here. Whenever we have hotpot, we come to this spot."

Leah froze, speechless. Avery covered her face and whined, "Sister, have some mercy on us single high schoolers. Can’t even eat without getting force fed dog food? That’s just cruel."

The cruelty didn’t stop there. Luis, who had stepped out, returned with a box and placed it on the table.

"What’s that?" Leah leaned in to ask.

Lily opened it while grinning. "Mustard mixed with tripe from the shop at the intersection. So delicious. Your brother in law always buys it for me."

Leah and Avery both shot her a look of "enough already," but Lily ate happily, her face full of bliss.

After a satisfying hotpot meal, they strolled around a bit. Avery said she needed to head back, her eyes flickering with something meaningful.

What a god tier wingwoman—Lily proactively suggested, "Husband, can you take her home? It’s not safe for a girl to go alone."

Leah’s eyes nearly popped out of her skull, but before she could protest, Luis nodded. "Sure."

Frugal as always, Lily offered her electric scooter. Luis didn’t mind and took the keys. Leah was frantic but couldn’t say much, so she pulled Avery aside for a whispered conversation, no doubt warning her not to spill anything.

Luis put on his helmet and mounted the scooter. Avery sat behind him, giggling.

"Second sister, I’ll come over for meals again. Brother in law’s the best, treats me to feasts, not like stingy Leah."

"Who’s stingy?!"

Leah, already on edge, instantly flared up.

"Oh, you’re not? When you ’treat’ me to seafood, it’s just seaweed and fish balls from a street stall."

"Last time you bragged about the ’biggest chain in the country’—turned out to be a damn chowmein shop!"

"Being cheap is one thing, but you straight up lied!"
