Li Yanxing was momentarily stunned, his gaze darkening slightly.
He seemed unable to keep up with this girl’s train of thought.
But…
President Li thought if this was a way to avoid the situation, it might… not be bad.
Just as he was considering whether to use this method to evade his wife’s pressure for intimacy, a soft hand boldly reached for him.
Lu Chiwan had completely forgotten about the injection at this point, wholly preoccupied with worries about her future happiness.
She changed positions, kneeling before Li Yanxing as she unceremoniously proceeded to personally examine Little Yanxing’s condition.
Li Yanxing hesitated for only a moment before she had already undone his belt, nearly pulling his pants down.
President Li quickly reached out to stop the mischievous hands of his young wife.
Any later, and she would truly be capable of anything.
He had always believed himself completely immune to all women’s charms – that is, before meeting Lu Chiwan.
Before Lu Chiwan, no woman could get close to him.
That’s why he didn’t dare let Lu Chiwan run wild – tonight alone, there had already been two or three times he nearly lost control and took things further…
“Qingqing.”
“Huh?”
Lu Chiwan looked up, her beautiful eyes misty with unshed tears, on the verge of crying again.
“A Yan, it was me who damaged it, right?”
“I personally destroyed my future happiness, cut off our baby’s path into this world, crushed your needs as a normal man, right?”
“……”
Li Yanxing firmly held her mischievous hands, leaning down to comfort her with a kiss at the corner of her lips. “Of course it’s not your fault. I… was injured recently and haven’t fully recovered yet.”
He sighed helplessly, reaching out to tousle the girl’s messy hair. “So you won’t dislike me because of this, right?”
President Li had taken control of the situation, turning the tables with acting so convincing he almost believed he was truly ill.
“Ah, so that’s it!”
Lu Chiwan’s eyes widened. “So when faced with such a beautiful, adorable, charming, and seductive wife like me, it’s not that you don’t want to sleep with me, but that your spirit is willing though the flesh is weak?”
Li Yanxing: “?”
What did she eat growing up to make that little mouth so talkative?
How could that old fellow Chen Yang stand it?
“Husband.”
Lu Chiwan sniffled, climbing up to sit on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck before leaning in to kiss his cheek again. “It’s okay, we’ll take our time treating your illness. I’ll take you to see a gynecologist tomorrow – no, I mean andrology.”
Li Yanxing: “……”
“No need, you already took me before you lost your memory.”
“Ah?”
“So I already took you to andrology before? That’s so like me.”
“I really am such a virtuous, gentle, considerate, and charming young wife.”
“A Yan, say you love me.”
Lu Chiwan’s tone suddenly became proud.
Her thought process jumped too quickly for him to follow.
“A Yan, say you love me, say it.”
“I love you.”
President Li gave up resisting, answering perfunctorily.
“Now kiss me.”
Lu Chiwan pointed at her own lips.
Li Yanxing leaned down and kissed her.
“Okay, let’s sleep now.”
“You have to hold me while I sleep.”
Lu Chiwan pushed him down, pulled over the blanket, then contentedly snuggled into Li Yanxing’s embrace.
Now that she had confirmed Li Yanxing’s reluctance to touch her wasn’t due to lack of love, her anger immediately dissipated.
“Husband, don’t worry. If you persist with treatment, you’ll definitely recover.”
“Even if you don’t get better…”
Lu Chiwan pursed her lips and fell silent, nestling comfortably in Li Yanxing’s embrace as she closed her eyes.
Having been kept awake by her antics for half the night, the CEO felt not a hint of drowsiness.
“If it can’t be cured, what then? Cuckold me?”
Seeing the girl didn’t continue, Li Yanxing couldn’t resist asking.
The girl still didn’t reply.
He lowered his gaze, glancing at the soft girl in his arms, only to realize she had already fallen asleep.
“?”
She stirred his curiosity and then fell asleep.
He couldn’t sleep, so why should she?
“If it can’t be cured, finish what you were saying.”
“Lin Qingfu.”
“Qingqing.”
“Speak now!”
At this moment, the CEO acted like a childish brat. Unwilling to let Lu Chiwan sleep mid-sentence, he alternately ruffled her hair, stroked her waist, and tugged at her small hand.
Finally, he simply lifted her up and shook her wildly.
Lu Chiwan was genuinely exhausted by now. With her eyes closed, she mumbled drowsily, “If it can’t be cured, we’ll divorce. I’ll wait half a year for you—I don’t want to be a living widow.”
She yawned and fell sound asleep, inadvertently revealing her true thoughts.
Li Yanxing froze for a moment, then let out a cold snort as he pulled her out of his embrace.
Hah.
Sweet as honey, newlywed bliss, loving him to death, even making heart gestures?
What nonsense!
Utter rubbish!
Why didn’t Da Hei bite her head off and use it as a ball to kick!
Li Yanxing rolled over, childishly snatching all the blankets from Lu Chiwan and turning his back to the girl as he slept.
Lu Chiwan remained completely unaware of the disaster she had caused.
“Achoo!”
Feeling cold in her sleep, she couldn’t help but sneeze, yet she didn’t wake.
Irritated, Li Yanxing rolled back over, pulled her into his arms, and covered her with the blanket.
He thought disdainfully to himself: This wife I picked up—even if I don’t use her, I might as well hold her for warmth. Otherwise, why let her live here eating and staying for free?
Da Hei?
A moment later, Li Yanxing opened his dark eyes, his gaze profound.
He grabbed the phone he had tossed aside and sent a message: “Investigate Da Hei.”
Although he disliked Da Hei’s ugly appearance, the dog was highly perceptive. Apart from biting an intruding criminal once, it had never harmed anyone in the family.
Moreover, Lu Chiwan had spent several hours in the South Garden today without any incident.
The next day.
The company had a meeting scheduled.
Li Yanxing canceled it last minute. Glancing at the girl still asleep in his arms, he leaned down and planted a soft kiss on her.
He got up, took his clothes, and left.
North Garden.
Li Zhining was having breakfast with Li Shiming and Yao Meizhu.
“Dad, did you really agree to let Big Brother marry that Lin Qingfu? Just hearing the name sounds cheap—probably some mistress or seductress.”
“Why should such a low-class woman step into the Li family’s doors and stand beside me? It makes me sick to my stomach.”
Li Zhining spread jam on her toast as she complained, her eyes filled with intense disdain.
Li Shiming frowned, about to speak, when hurried voices of servants trying to stop someone came from outside. “Young Master, the Master and Madam are having breakfast, I, I…”
Naturally, no one could stop him.
Li Zhining looked up in confusion, only to meet Li Yanxing’s icy, terrifying gaze. So frightened, she dropped the bread in her hand.
Thud!
“Ah!”
Li Zhining screamed, tumbling to the floor clutching her stomach in pain as she writhed.
Without a word, Li Yanxing lifted his foot and kicked Li Zhining to the ground.
“Li Yanxing!”
Furious, Li Shiming threw down his bowl and roared, “How dare you defy me!”
Yao Meizhu rushed anxiously to shield her daughter.
Li Yanxing ignored them completely and clapped his hands.
A fierce Tibetan Mastiff was promptly released by Li Yanxing’s bodyguard.
Strangely enough, the Tibetan Mastiff ignored everyone else and charged straight at Li Zhining, biting her frantically.
“Ah, get away, get away!”
Li Zhining was terrified out of her wits, her dress mostly torn off by the Tibetan Mastiff.
She scrambled up from the ground in panic and fled like a madwoman.
Yao Meizhu was also frightened senseless, “Shiming, save our daughter, save our daughter!”
