436  Woman's Ability — Self Delulu! Brother's Might blinds the ladies, test the vocals!

"Uh... Let's just say, your senior brother has a unique way of dealing with copyright infringement," Lisa quickly covered up, her words a hasty patch over the idea that Zhang Wei might personally visit anyone daring to share his name, armed with an invitation to yama.

"Ah? Okay!" Shi Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief, her imagination briefly conjuring images of Zhang Wei leading a superhero squad against the forces of piracy.

Lisa then gestured for her to follow, leading her towards the door that served as the gateway to Zhang Wei's domain.

As they approached the door, Shi Jingjing's anxiety surged anew. Biting her lip, she halted, a sudden thought seizing her.

"Wait! Shouldn't we knock?" She asked, her voice was tinged with panic, the prospect of barging into such a place without the customary courtesy of knocking seeming utterly foreign to her.

"??" Lisa's initial confusion at Shi Jingjing's suggestion to knock quickly morphed into a wry, almost resigned smile. "If you knock, he would scold you for disturbing him," she explained, her tone hinting at the complexity of navigating interactions with Shi Jingjing's senior brother.

"Oh," Shi Jingjing's expression faltered, her excitement dimming under the weight of this new information. Yet, her curiosity was relentless navigator to death, sparking another question. "But if we barge in like this, wouldn't he be angry?"

Lisa fell silent for a moment, contemplating the question before nodding in agreement. "Yes, he would scold us for walking in unannounced as well."

"What?" Shi Jingjing couldn't hide her bewilderment.

The rules of big brother seemed impossible to decipher, leaving her more confused than ever.

With a wry smile still playing on her lips, Lisa pushed the door open, her tone carrying a mix of amusement and resignation. "Don't worry, your senior brother is eccentric. If he wants to scold, he would find a reason regardless of what you do."

Crack!

The door swung open, and a harsh, blinding light flooded their vision. It wasn't just any light but an illumination, overwhelming in its intensity, symbolizing the enlightenment— enlightenment so intense it momentarily robbed them of sight of reality!

"Gwaak!"

"Gwagggh!"

10:36

A gasp of surprise simultaneously escaped both Shi Jingjing's and Lisa's lips, leaving them frozen in shock with their faces drained of color.

The sigh that escaped them was far from peaceful.

Naked, a man thrust his manhood deeply into a girl's throat, her eyes red and upturned as groans escaped her parted lips.

The scene before them left Lisa and Shi Jingjing questioning whether they had walked through the wrong door.

Zhang Wei's back was turned to them when he heard the door open.

He turned around, his expression shifting to confusion as his eyes narrowed at Lisa and Shi Jingjing. They stood frozen in shock, the junior Zhang slyly waving at them with a "Hi", before Zhang Wei burst into laughter, trying to explain the situation, "Ah, my apologies, ladies. Was just testing her vocal range."

"..."

"..."

Both Lisa and Shi Jingjing were rendered speechless, words trapped in their throats as if held by an invisible force.

Without warning, Lisa's instincts kicked in, propelling her to act swiftly.

Swoosh!

With a decisive grip, she clasped Shi Jingjing's hand, pulling her back into the corridor.

Click!

The door closed softly behind them, sealing away the source of their discomfort.

"Sigh!" Lisa exhaled deeply, a sigh of relief mixed with a tinge of regret.

Pak! Pak! Pak!

In the silence of the hallway, the sound of self-reproach was unmistakable.

Lisa chastised herself, her hands meeting her face in a series of shrarp slaps. "Lisa! Were you foolish? Why didn't you knock!?" Her cheeks flushed with a blend of shame and frustration, a harsh self-rebuke as she grappled with her actions, or rather, the lack thereof.

Shi Jingjing, on the other hand, stood in confusion, her face a canvas of dismay.

The senior brother, who had seemed so amiable through the veil of WeChat, appeared intimidating in reality.

What caused such a drastic shift in demeanor?

"You didn't see anything, okay?" In an attempt to rectify the situation, Lisa turned to Shi Jingjing, her voice earnest, seeking a silent agreement to forget the awkward intrusion.

!!

Taken aback, Shi Jingjing could only nod, her response barely above a whisper. "Y-Yeah..."

'I-I didn't see anything...' she reassured herself, her mind racing to make sense of the situation. Was the imposing figure they encountered merely an illusion?

Or had they unwittingly stumbled upon a side of the senior brother that was meant to remain hidden?

In the aftermath of their hasty retreat, Shi Jingjing's mind raced to piece together the fragments of the scene they had just fled.

'No, we didn't know anything yet... Who was the girl? Or what happened before... There must be some misunderstanding,' Shi Jingjing unexpectedly thought, her inner detective coming to the frontlines.

Shi Jingjing convinced herself, much like her predecessors, that Brother Zhang is innocent!

After all, their encounter was too fleeting, too filled with unknowns to draw any concrete conclusions.

This conviction wasn't born out of naivety but from a deep-seated desire to reconcile the Brother Zhang she knew with the unsettling scene they had stumbled upon.

It was an evidence to a powerful, if not perplexing, aspect of thier kind's nature: the capacity for delusion, a force second only to the brother's might!

The narrative that unfolded in Shi Jingjing's mind highlighted a profound yet often overlooked aspect of woman nature—the capacity for self-delusion!

It was a profound acknowledgment of the lengths to which thier heart goes to preserve its cherished perceptions, to maintain the sanctity of its affections against the onslaught of inconvenient truths!

In every situation, no matter the place or the circumstances, as long as she harbors affection for you, a woman will find a reason to rationalize you as the good guy in her story.

This was not a matter of deception by external forces but an internal mechanism of coping and reconciliation. An untold truth is — women don't need to be tricked; they trick themselves

Despite the strange and possibly troubling circumstances surrounding Zhang Wei, her feelings for him, seeded by his act of saving her, crafted a lens through which she viewed him.

This lens, colored by gratitude and burgeoning affection, filtered out doubts and cast him in the light of a hero, despite the shadows that might lurk behind.

Shi Jingjing's favorable feelings towards Zhang Wei, therefore, became both her guiding star and her blind spot, in doing so, she became a part of an age-old cycle of belief and rationalization, illustrating the dance between the heart's desires and the mind's justifications—a dance as timeless as the stories that encapsulate the human experience.
