Chapter 1199: I Want to Make You Stay (77)
Xiao Yue was the only one chattering noisily throughout dinner while the two of them barely spoke.
It was inconvenient for them to talk with others around.
Fang Erlan decided to talk to him in private when they return to the hotel later.
Xiao Yue was beyond excited and thrilled throughout the entire journey.
She had never ridden in such an expensive car and did not mind having to squeeze in the backseat.
It was an eyeopening experience for her.
Upon arriving at the hotel, the three of them entered the elevator together. When the elevator ascended to the ninth floor, Xiao Yue exited. Noticing that Xiao Chenyang was remaining still, she asked, “Cousin, aren’t you going to go back to your room?”
“Um… I have something to tell him in private,” said Fang Erlan.
“Oh. In that case, Sis… I’ll meet you again in the evening,” said Xiao Yue.
“Alright,” Fang Erlan answered, after which the elevator doors closed.
The two of them were left alone in the elevator.
Fang Erlan subconsciously turned to the side to look at him. Smiling, he held her gaze, and they both had a tacit understanding.
Ding!
The elevator arrived on the tenth floor.
They were almost in sync when exiting the elevator. Fang Erlan took the lead while he kept a close distance behind her.
Fang Erlan unlocked the door with her key card when she reached her room. As soon as she entered, he hugged her tightly and closed the door using his foot.
Fang Erlan stood rooted to the ground and remained silent for a while before turning around to face him.
She did not utter a single word and instead tiptoed to kiss him.
Xiao Chenyang held her waist and pulled her closer toward him to kiss her deeply.
Due to how forceful he was, Fang Erlan lost her balance and retreated backward while he leaned toward her.
He moved her all the way inside and onto the bed.
Panting heavily, Fang Erlan gazed at him and asked, “Do you still love me?”
Staring at her with an intense gaze, Xiao Chenyang asked, “If I didn’t love you, why would I have come and look for you?”
Fang Erlan draped her arms around his neck and said coquettishly, “How would I know? Maybe you came to see how much of a joke I’ve become.”
He lowered his head and kissed her again before saying, “Why would I do that? Who would dare to make fun of you? Tell me his or her name and I’ll make sure that that person will never have the chance to make fun of you again.”
Fang Erlan blushed red with shyness. Despite already knowing the answer, she asked again, “Were you the one who picked my parents up and moved them to the city? Did you also buy them a house and a car?”
“Yes.”
“Why did you…”
“I was the one who called the reporters and sent them to your place. I wanted to clear your name. If I can shut them up and stop them from spouting nonsense with some money, why not? Besides, they’re your parents. As their son-in-law, it’s only right that I do my part.”
“Son-in-law…” Recalling the way her brother had addressed him, Fang Erlan asked, “Did you tell my parents that you were my boyfriend?”
“No, I didn’t. How could I call myself your boyfriend when you haven’t broken up with Yan Ge back then? I told them that I was wooing you and that the house is already registered under your name,” he said smugly.
“Why did my brother call you brother-in-law, then…?” Fang Erlan asked.
“I can’t stop him if he likes addressing me that way. Have you really broken up with him?” he asked.
“Yes, I’ve already broken up with him in person. The television series that Sis Xiaoning had invested in is yet to go on air. This current one that I’m starring in is also still in the works. I’m planning to announce the news of our breakup after this one has finished broadcasting. Do you find it… too much time to wait?”
“Not at all. Anyway, I want to be with you every day from now on.”
Fang Erlan had never felt so in love with someone before. She could not help but be filled with immense joy, just by staring at him.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“I wanted to ask you, do you want to take a shower together?” he continued.
“…”
“Do you?”
“No, you go first…”
He stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll shower first.”
He had clearly already taken a shower before coming to see her. However, he somehow felt an urge to shower again, even if it was just a rinse…
Fang Erlan watched as he removed his clothes slowly, feeling as if the temperature in the air was rising.
She kicked her shoes off and lay down.
She initially thought that he would head inside the bathroom once he had stripped down to his underwear. To her astonishment…
He removed it too.
This was… blatant seduction!
Turning beet red, Fang Erlan shut her eyes tightly as her heart raced so rapidly that she felt as if she was about to get a heart attack.
She opened her eyes only after she heard his footsteps entering the washroom.
A few minutes later, Xiao Chenyang exited with a towel wrapped around his waist.
Fang Erlan exchanged glances with him, and she frantically got out of bed in a bid to avoid him. “I’ll go brush my teeth and shower.”
He smiled and waited for her to return.
Fang Erlan entered the washroom to see that he had used the new toothbrush that she was initially planning to replace hers with. Thus, she had no choice but to continue using her old one.
She brushed her teeth, took a shower, and exited half an hour later.
Fang Erlan walked toward the bed slowly, unsure of where to place her hands.
As soon as she reached the bed, he pulled her onto him, causing her to lie flat on his chest. She froze and murmured, “Xiao Chenyang…”
“Call me Hubby.”
“Hubby…” Fang Erlan said softly, despite feeling a little embarrassed.
Xiao Chenyang rested his arms behind his head and looked at her. “You must address me that way from now on. I like hearing you call me ‘Hubby.’”
“I can only do that when we’re alone. I still have to address you by your name when there are outsiders around…”
Xiao Chenyang gazed at her with tears in his eyes. Heaven is really kind to me, after all. Not only did he let me find her, he even allowed us to be reunited.
“Erlan…”
“Yes?”
“I love you.”
“I know.”
“I really love you.”
“I said I know.”
“I love you very, very much.”
She looked up and asked, “To… what extent?”
“I’m willing to give you everything that I have, including my life.”
Fang Erlan lifted herself up slightly and placed her hands by his side. She straddled him and began kissing him gently.
Xiao Chenyang cupped her face in his hands and stuck his tongue into her mouth. He then flipped her over and got on top of her before pulling the ribbon of her bathrobe to expose her bare body.
She was stark naked, and her porcelain skin exuded the heavenly scent of her shower gel. Her petite body seemed to be calling his name.
Noticing that he had untied her bathrobe, Fang Erlan cupped her face with her hands bashfully.
Xiao Chenyang could not help but find her adorable.
