In the middle of the night, Chen Yansheng returned to the mountain god temple with a few bean cakes and a kettle.
He wondered if Yu Bingjie would get bored hiding inside the altar for so long.
He hurriedly went behind the altar and removed the partition.
Then they saw a beautiful woman with a hot figure leaning against the altar, fast asleep.
Upon seeing this, Chen Yansheng couldn’t help but smile.
Yu Bingjie had a tough night.
Not only was he drugged by Chen Yansheng, but he also took his medicine seven or eight times, until his bones were completely brittle.
To evade the villagers’ search, they hid in this cramped space under the altar for so long.
“Bingjie, wake up.”
Chen Yansheng nudged Yu Bingjie’s shoulder.
Because of her sleeping position, Yu Bingjie’s clothes sleeve slipped down, revealing her fair and delicate shoulders.
Although the two had met openly, Chen Yansheng still felt a little strange when he saw Yu Bingjie’s fair, milky skin.
“Mmm~” Yu Bingjie murmured softly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
Soon, she realized she had fallen asleep. Then, remembering that she was still in the mountain god temple, her eyes immediately became alert, and she prepared to get up.
Chen Yansheng quickly reached out to protect Yu Bingjie’s head, so that she wouldn’t hit the mud floor of the altar when she stood up.
Be careful!
Yu Bingjie blushed slightly and tried to get up, but her legs went limp again.
“What’s wrong?” Chen Yansheng asked upon seeing this.
“My legs are numb, I can’t get up,” Yu Bingjie said, her face flushed.
The space under the altar is not large; if your legs go numb, it will be difficult to crawl out.
“Let me carry you out,” Chen Yansheng said after thinking for a moment.
Yu Bingjie blushed and nodded.
When Yu Bingjie’s snow-white jade arm was draped over his neck and her delicate body pressed against him, Chen Yansheng couldn’t help but recall the scene in the mountain god temple just now.
At this moment, the smell of sweat still lingered on the two of them.
If what happened before was due to the effects of the medication…
Now, the two are truly infatuated with each other because of their masculine and feminine chemistry.
Clearly, Yu Bingjie had also imagined that scene; her earlobes flushed red, and her breathing became somewhat rapid.
“Yansheng, I…”
Sensing the fragrance emanating from Yu Bingjie, Chen Yansheng swallowed hard and tightened his grip on her fragrant back.
“Gurgle!”
Just then, an untimely rumbling of a stomach rang out, abruptly shattering the ambiguous atmosphere.
Yu Bingjie’s pretty face immediately turned red, and she said embarrassedly, “I, I’m hungry…”
With the atmosphere ruined, Chen Yansheng couldn’t continue.
He carried Yu Bingjie out, then took out some bean cakes and a water bottle, and handed them to Yu Bingjie: “I brought some food up here, you can fill your stomach first.”
“After we finish eating, we’ll go down the mountain.”
Yu Bingjie was indeed starving, so she didn’t stand on ceremony, took the bean cakes and water bottle, and started eating.
For a moment, the mountain god temple also fell silent.
Chen Yansheng’s gaze fell on Yu Bingjie.
My sister’s best friend is a well-known beauty in the surrounding villages. If it weren’t for her family being poor, her father being lazy and good-for-nothing, her mother being a gambler, and her younger brother being weak and sickly, she would have been much better off.
I’m afraid quite a few people have already come to propose marriage.
In his past life, Chen Yansheng had been imprisoned because of what happened tonight, but he did not blame Bingjie.
Yu Bingjie gave him her first time, which means that she definitely liked him deep down.
Since God has given him a second chance at life, he must cherish his beautiful and charming best friend, his sister.
“Shall we have a chat?” Chen Yansheng said slowly after Bingjie had finished eating.
Yu Bingjie nodded, finished the last bite of the bean cake, and then picked up the kettle to drink water.
A trickle of water flowed down her fair chin and snowy neck, creating a unique and charming effect.
Chen Yansheng swallowed hard, inwardly cursing his sister’s best friend as a real vixen!
“What do you want to talk about?” Yu Bingjie asked, having finished her water and returned the kettle to Chen Yansheng.
Distracted by Yu Bingjie’s act of drinking water, Chen Yansheng almost forgot what he was going to say: “Sister Bingjie, about tonight’s events…”
Upon hearing Chen Yansheng call her “sister,” Yu Bingjie assumed he was trying to distance himself from her, and interrupted him before he could finish speaking:
“Don’t worry, treat tonight’s events as a dream, and I will never tell anyone.”
“After we leave the mountain, you can continue your university studies, and I will continue to marry my husband.”
After saying this, Yu Bingjie looked somewhat somber.
Although her father was lazy and good-for-nothing, he at least protected her and her younger brother. Since her father left, she has indeed felt that the men outside the village are looking at her with increasingly malicious eyes.
Now even Wang Mazi is using the IOUs her father owes to force her to marry him.
“Yu Bingjie, that’s not what I meant. Let me explain.”
Seeing Yu Bingjie get up to leave, Chen Yansheng quickly hugged her from behind.
Upon seeing Chen Yansheng’s bold move, Yu Bingjie’s heart pounded like a deer’s. Her mind was filled with images of Chen Yansheng’s broad chest and powerful arms, and her legs involuntarily went weak.
“What are you doing? Let me go!”
Before coming to the mountain god temple tonight, she told herself that she would only have this one relationship with Chen Yansheng and would never bother him again.
But after that unforgettable and wonderful experience, she was now somewhat reluctant to leave.
Seeing Yu Bingjie’s coy behavior, Chen Yansheng knew that if he didn’t say it now, he would never have the chance again.
He lowered his head, leaned close to Yu Bingjie’s delicate ear, and said seriously, “Yu Bingjie, I want to marry you!”
The man’s breath brushed against her ear, along with those seductive words, and Yu Bingjie’s delicate body softened completely, becoming as supple as water.
“Is everything you’re saying true?”
Yu Bingjie doubted she had misheard, and leaned against Chen Yansheng’s chest, her voice trembling slightly.
“Yes, I’m serious!” Chen Yansheng nodded emphatically.
In her past life, in order to save him, Yu Bingjie went so far as to say in front of everyone that she had seduced him willingly, so that Chen Yansheng would not be executed.
However, Yu Bingjie was also scorned by the entire village, her house and land were taken away by Wang Mazi, her mother and younger brother committed suicide by burning charcoal, and in the end, she had no choice but to choose the path of suicide.
He wanted to marry Yu Bingjie not only because she was beautiful and capable, but also because of guilt and other complex emotions.
Most importantly, after Chen Yansheng was released from prison in his previous life and returned to Stone Village, he learned that Yu Bingjie had committed suicide, and he also learned another piece of news that made him regretful.
That was after that night at the mountain god temple, Yu Bingjie became pregnant with his child.
When Yu Bingjie’s body was pulled from the river, the babies in her womb had already formed; they were twins, a boy and a girl!
Chen Yansheng has weathered the crisis of the Mountain God Temple’s imprisonment.
In this life, he wants to marry Yu Bingjie and ensure that his two children are born safely and grow up happily!
“No, no, even if no one knows what happened tonight…”
“But I’m also your sister’s good friend, and I’m older than you!”
“If you want to marry me, your sister and your parents won’t agree.”
“Moreover, my family still owes Wang Mazi a huge sum of money, and he won’t let me off the hook.”
Yu Bingjie quickly regained her senses and shook her head as she spoke.
“I’ll talk to my parents and my sister.”
“I’ll pay off the money your family owes Wang Mazi!”
Chen Yansheng said decisively:
“Just know this: you are now my woman, Chen Yansheng’s woman!”
“Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up!”
Yu Bingjie bit her red lips lightly, wanting to say something, but Chen Yansheng sealed her mouth with his.
Some truths can’t be explained with words, so let’s make them work through!
“Hmm…” Upon seeing Chen Yansheng’s actions, Yu Bingjie let out a soft gasp and flailing her hands wildly, trying to push the man in front of her away.
But without realizing it, her hands had already reached back to hug him.
Unbeknownst to Chen Yansheng, the wooden or stone-like plaque he had casually picked up under the mountain god’s clay statue had quietly melted away, flowing into his palm like stalactite.
“From today onwards, you are mine.”
Half an hour later, looking at the exhausted woman in his arms, Chen Yansheng said.
“Okay, you little devil.”
Yu Bingjie said weakly.
The man in front of me is even more ferocious than an animal.
If I were to marry him in the future, how could I possibly handle it?
